But yesterday it was marriage of the earth and sky, and ali nature seemed to rejoice in the bridals. Oar citi- zens ovgbt to bave evjoyed the day, for an immense number of turkeys were consumed. The old song fitly supplied the motto of the day :— Without the cold ‘let sorrow lie, And it for cold it hap to die, We'll bury it in a Christmas ple, And ever more be merry. This boliday has long been a favorite one with Christians of ail countries; yet strange to say, it was not observed for many hundred years ir the birth of our Savior. Nor was it the lirst which was observed in his honor. Faster is the most ancient, and was deamed of ‘the grestest importance, for on the fact of the actual re- surrection of the Savior tho whole truth and force of his doctrines rested. His birth would bave been bat of tittle censequence to mankind if he had not triumphantly risen from the grave. The feastof the Nativity, or Obristmar, was only introduced about the foarth century, atthe cloce of which the festivals and fasta of the chureb be, to assume some order, having reforence rather te their origin and meantug than to thelr chrono- logy. So the churchmen of those days arranged their cycles of Christmas, of Faster, and of Whitsuntide; be- ginping and cuding at particular periods, and commemo- ative of Christ’s minieteria! history and his ascension into heaven. But it is a very curious fact that we are by no means certain on what day the nattvity of the Savior actually occurred. Inthe church it was for hundreds of «are celebrated on the sixth day of January; the ‘eatern church regarded the twenty-fifth of December a3’ the correct date, and observed it accordingly. The latter opinion iically prevailed, and the Bishop of Jerusa- Jem adopted the Roman custon in the year 431. it cer- tainly wasattonded at tirst without any great d feeling, originating ia tho judgment of some, with the taste of the age for fcs'ivals and holy days, by others a: an oflset to the heathen Saturnalia which atiracted too mrch the weaker brethren. It certainly was at once marked by merry making and the irterchsnge of presents, which are not vsu:l upon apy other Christian holiday. Very many curious tracts and bocke have been written on this subject, some of which are noticed by Brande !n his ‘“ Popular Antiqui- tes,’’ a text book in great demana by Carletmas critics.

It ‘\s pot only a day fer the church, but ry om ‘fae rest of mankind.’ More cating aud drinking and playgoing occur on Christmas than on any other day in the year. In New York it !s a cause of largo expenditare.

The readers of the Hana. are aware that the Now York Legislature of 1866 adjourned ine row, and lef a large amount of untinishea business. Nine-tenths of it, however, was that kind of legisiation inatitated by the Voracious lobby managers—an onslaugh upon the trea- sury—whbich would be a saving to the State of millions, if the syetem could never be revived. The only feature of émbarrusement occasioned by that adjournment was the neglect or refusal to comply with the express command Of the constiution, im re-districting the Senate and Assem- bly districts under the census of 1865. Seotion fourth of article five of the constitution, declares thus:— An epumeration of the inhabitants of the State shall be taken, under the direction of the Legisiature, im the year one ibousand eight hundred and fifty five, and at the end of every ten years thereafter; and the raid districts shal! be #0 altered by the Legislature, at the first session after the mof every enumeration that each Senate dis- trict eball contain, as nearly as may be, an equal number Pbabitants, excluoing aliens raons ot color not ‘able; apd shell remain until the return of Bother enumeration, and shail ata)! times consist of con: tiguour territory, &c. Section 6 rays:— The mexobere of Assembly shall be apportioned from among the scverai counties of this State by the Legisia- ture, as nearly as may be, according to the number of their respective inbabitan:a, excluding aliens and persons of color not taxable, and shal! be chosen by sm- ee € Legis” aie districts. lature, at its first session, after the return of every env mer: li re-apportion the members of Assembly among the several counties of this State, in manner sore- taid; and the Board of Supervisors jn such counties as may be entitled, under such re rtionment, to more than one member, shall assembio such time as the Legislature making such apportionment shall prescribe, and divide such counties into Assembly districts, &o., There iwjunctions and peremptory commands of the constitution of the State were violated by tho last Legisia- ture, every member of which took an oath tosupport that ‘instrument iu all its provisions. It will be clearly per ceived by the above quotations that the duty of re dis- triciing the State devolved upon the last I ogisiature at ite “fret seerion.”’ The enumeration was taken and oom pleted in 1855, and the constitution distinctly says that the Legislature o! 1866 shall re organize the Senate and Atsembly districts. This was not done. The constitu tion was deliberately and knowingly violated. What is the result? What will be the copsequence? Can the lo- ‘islature of 1857 perform the work neglected or refused fy their predecessors? The fundamental enactment of the people declares that the ‘' egislature, at its first ses- sion after the return of every enumeration,’’ shall re-dis- trict the State. There is no provision for any postpone. ment of that important duty. framers of the constitu. tion of 1846 made that duty — the first Le- 0 p fog any subsequent 1 c tay power ef rated giving any subsequent Legisiature any power Tothorlty whatever over the subject ‘waa Yor the first Legisiature, at iis Orst session, to have performed the we ‘The duty could not even have been done at an extra seesion, if the executive bad called one. And now an importent interrogatory arises: Can the apportion- ment be made before the session of 1866, beirg then the fret pene after the next enumeration of the peoplo of this ? ‘The covnties of New York, Kings, Erie, and probably others, whose popvlation bas greatly increased since the preeent districts were established, will not be fairly rev- resented in either branch of the Legislature unti! the constitution bal! be complied with. Hed the iast Legis. Jature peformed its duty New York would ‘@ had four and Kings two more members than they now have of tho House which assembles on Tuesday, the reventh day of January next. ‘The re-organization of the Legislature having thus fail th ny of and only time when it could have been ly Cone, tbe question arises whethcr the body of men who eball appear at the Capitol on the firet Tuceday of the pew year will be a Legisiatuse under the constitu. tion, The mejority comprising thore bodies are whetting thet 8 for an abundarce of palatablo food during appeti the bast red wilt lection of Preston King to the United Siates Senate, by that body of men, be and covetitutional act?
