~ — (Dontheued from the Aret page.) Metribretes bis richly prized presents to the little teks. Ant who con monmure the joy which child- teh immecence experiences on the advent of Coristmes! How the Hiitle ones look forward to the day in joyour anticipation. How eerneatly they ask of “memma' how many nights {4 will be ti!) Bente Claus comes! How the bright eyes sperkio with enger expectaney when, on Coristmas eve, are bung ap the little stockings — from those of the “eight-year-old,” who struts in Doota, to the tiny IMtle socks of “baby '' And when morning comes, what ecetacy of childish giee! The pattering of little foet in hastening to fee what Banta Claus has brought ; the expreamon of mingled surprise end delight wen the wonler- ful tresenres are neon; the outburst of youthful joy, and the brimful happiness of little hearta—who can express it? If bachelors are miserable in pro- portion aa children are happy, a* \* popularly pre- @umed, it ia a wonder that every bachelor in the Jend doesn't bang bimeeif with bis bed-cord on Chrismas dey. And what ‘papa’ or ‘mamma’ wild withhold from their Mttle ones po much joy, when it may fo cantly be given? Chillhood is too hort, and the taal of life come too soon, to with hold from children the simple means of happiness. Of course al! cannot afford to purchase ex- pensive presents, nor is this necessary, The @enpte and inexpensive gift of the poor mother to Ber child is none the leas highly prized than the comity presents received by those more fortunate. But there are cases, it te true, even in thie yreat end wealthy city, in which the voices of children will be dient on Christmas morning, unless they ‘ere kindly remembered by the friends of the unfor- tanete. There are hundreds of poor children in cur midet—fatheriees little ones who have no Bante Claus to provide for them—perchance chiliren whose fathers are sleeping their leat aleep on the Bonthern battle-fields. These depend for mi! nis tence, perhaps, upon the daily toil of » mother, or sister, whose labor barely produces income enough to support life, and have not a penny & Mpare to make joyful tho heart of childhood. For such there is no Banta Claus —the patron Saint of the litle folks died with the denth of the parent, Christmas day with such is besatifully expreased (m the following touching lines: On the night of that day on which, long years before, Was boro in a etable the Lord we adore The day had been merry and full of high jor To many # inughing bright eyed girl and boy, Now acl: fone slept and played in his dream, ba the brig! i ifs brought in by the wild reindeer ain. fint in a lone street of the dark murky town, Where the houses were old and dingy and brown, Ln a cold attic chamber, eo gloomy and bieh, That ita barren roof seemed to scowl at the eky, 4 little girl slept on an old broken bed, While o'er the rough canvare that pillewed her head The bright sunny pelts eo ripplingly rolled, The scomed like tapestry broidered with gold, dy her side ent her sister, both pallid and fair. And wearied with working and worn with despair. But atill she sewed on, br lamnp's feeble lieht, Far on in the hours of that cold Christmas night. Like the bird, when the north wind har shaken ite nee Che viedo one woke from her troubled unrest, Then timidly crept to her loved sister's side, And opening ber dark eyes inquiringly wide, the a ehe half-raieed her bright eunny head, “Bay, r, dear sister, in Santn Claus dead? Dear father killed in the battle, | know, nd mothe dead when she felt tre the mow. it they h of them died I well know muat be trne. And T think that our Santa Claus must have died too; For I'm eure ‘twas inet night, when I'd just anid my er, ther Thune my old etock!ng fo elyly up there, this morning ‘twas empty, and stil juet ae old, T put it on quickly, "twas ro bitter cold, bile at the Inet Christmas, along while aback, found that big doll and that dear Jum ping-Jeck. in any way possibly Banta Claus could, le would have brought something, for I have been The slater drew closer the child to her heart, And hiding the tear that unhidden would atart, the pri her wan cheek on the child's curly head, And choking with sorrow, then falt'ringly anid, “My own little gester, your dream was too true, or truly good Banta Ciaur died unto you When onr father in battie war cruelly elain, = mother was freed from her erie! and her pain. t there's one, ny own sister, who dwelleth above, 4 Being of infinite merey and love, Who will be, if to him we are taithful and true, Goth father and mother and Santa Claus too,” This, however, presents the darkest phase of Christmas day, and in view of the care which the senevolent and philanthropic always take to ferret sut and provide for seb cases, inetan- ee oof thie kind will doubtless be rare. The question with the great mass of our city people ® not whether the Christmas presents shall be sought or not, but what they shall be. There is perbaps no question more purzling to a man than wbat he shall buy as presents for the various men- oers of his family—what will please them best, and tt the same time come within the bounds of what te desires to expend for the purpose, The shop windows are all full, The stores temptingly ar- vange their respective wares for public examination —but how to make a choice ia the trouble, The timation in which # Christmas present is hel by ‘be recipient, however, depends not so much on the character of the prosent as the association con- sected with it, aud whatever be the fual selection, 4 is geverally received with heaitfelt joy. But wide from the feature of present making, Chriat- was fs an evont that is anxiously anticipated by a)! lames, Aw s day of reunion among friends, of ‘easting, hilarity and good fellowship, it is always obeerved in this country. By * Young Ameri particularly, it fe devoted to fun sud frolic, ‘oO sport and joviality, and is in truth eo werry Christinas, Should the weather prove favorable, it will be a grand pala day of skating, and all lovers of the noble sport will turn out for a trial of their sleill with “the irons." And should Dame Naturo see fit to favor us with sleighing, gay turnouts and the jingling of the ‘merry sleigh bells’? will enliven the avene, From al! the indica. tions that now appear, Christmas will be celebrated with all the accustomed eclat in this city. The churebes will as usual be gaily decorated forthe oveasion, the benevolent societies will take care of the wants of their proteyes, the soldsers in and about the elty, and the families of those who are in the field or have died inthe service, will be pro- vided for ; the philanthropists will with their usual Lberality remember the poor; and all, whether of high or low degroa wi!l bave cause to feal joyful and wieb for each other # Merry C)iristmas."* Seatinc—Snow,—The the Central Park lake was strony enougl to admit of skating, and the *ball!"’ was ralsed, A number of men were on the lake, The snow- storm, however, nterfored with the skating, and the ball was lowered. When the storm coased the oleancrs went to work ; and if no more snow falla, and the weather ia cold, the sketue will be good to-day. The snow-storm which began yesteniay morning rendered walking in the streets extreme! y dificult and uncomfortable. The trips of some of the city railroad cars were for several hours par- tally, suspended. now fell to the depth of several wehes, about two o'clock however, # rain set in wd washed away much of the mow leaving the breete covered with mud and aliab 3g 25, ice on yesterdey morning Recrorrine has sprang up very brisk since the recent call of the President for more troepe.
