Varies between cinnamon versions -
Try
Cinnamon Settings > Desktop - uncheck "Show mounted volumes on the desktop"
or
System Settings > Desktop ...
Edit: Reading altair4's reply below - I may have misunderstood the question
But .....For the clock:
Click Clock > Date and Time Settings
Click "Switch to Advanced Mode" if haven't already (this only needed If using Cinnamon 1.8+)
On the line - Date format for the panel - try this for the time section after the date:

I assume you mean you have an entry in /etc/fstab to have these non-system partitions automount?i have my disk set to automount but i dont want to seee them on the desktop so how do i hide them
Change mount points. Anything mounted to your home directory or to /media/Something will display a mount icon on the desktop. But if you mount it to /mnt/Something ( for example ) it will not.
