CHSISTMAS.
Christmas eve was well remembered
in Ridgway. The Methodist had a sup
per and scioptioan exhibition free, for
the benefit of the children, which was
well attended and much enjoyed. The
Episcopalians had a Christmas tree at
Orace Church, and supper at the new
parsonage for the benefit of ti e Sunday
school. The tree was certainly beauti
ful and filled with many useful, aud
valuable present. The tree was taste
fully arranged and mariuiGcently iilucj
inated, and the jets of lhjhtasthcy
sparkled and danced before the eyes of
the observer, sepmci like tho merry
boys and girls, to drink in the inspira
tion of Christmas time, or made one
think of a million stars, that deck the
celestial dome of hc:iveo, perchance di
verting our minds to the city of the
blest, where reigns the King of Christ
mas, and where the Ciirii-tmascs never
nd. We have never attended a Chiict
toas true where all the children seemed
to be so well suited, aud we believe the
ladies of Grace Church and 0. 11.
Earley are responsible for the pleasures
of tho evening. After the signing of a
few beautiful and appropriate songs by
the choir, "Christ Kindel," m-dc his
appearance, and distributed hi.i ifrs to
the old and youai:. Among the many
g;f we noticed that twelve boys had, as
many drums, and the younger misses of
the echoed were each provided witii a
diminutive tea tet aud a doll, while the
older misses were presented with a writ
ing desk aud toilet set. Christmas day
we were made aware of the presence of
the dram parol, whioh paraded our
directs, and uiad3 nervous people wish
boys, with diums were not one of the
anangements of the universe. Hut
then who ever kucw a boy that didn't
ant a drum, and when once had.woud'nt
cause each particular hair, of the rest of
creation to stand on end. We have a
boy but if he should ever want a drum
wo intend to kill him, as a wjrniug to
his brother boys. or, we'll buy him
a drum and let him kill everyone else.
