Selfishness predominating among mankind,
virtue Is diflkuit of attainment, bceauso self
sacrlflce la the Divine law. The least imper
fection possible iu man, dwells not iu develop
ment of his propensities, bu; In their direction,
restraint, or subjugation. Philosophy ame
liorates bis condition, but it gropes lu light
which is darkness compared with the dili
gence shed by that commandment which
teaches ma'i to love hla neighbor as himself.
Self love Is the mainspring of ae Ion tho
motive power of the world. In the pursuit of
lapplness, It seeks not cxcluslveness. It Is
necessarily allied with the highest benellceuce,
ibr man without it would cease to be an aent
either lor good or evil. But selfishness pjrsius
the objects of desire at all hazards, regardless
of the wishes of others, oblivious of their
happiness, and in opposition to their interests.
Selfishness is self-love degenerate and debasad.
At this time, some eighteen hundred years
go, came into the world the Teacher who
Instruct. d man that God's primal law is Lovo,
Bind Its fruit self sacrifice. lie taught that
,ove of God and man wore Inseparable. lie
joncluded precept and earner by that astound
ing example of soif-sacrillco an Ignominious
death upon the cross.
Of all times, it is Attest that this anniver
sary should be honored by practice of the
doctrines Inculcated by our Saviour. If tho
time does not especially call for self-sacrifice,
It should at least exhibit no selfishness; and
It la worthy of remark that at no period of
the year, la so great solicitude shown for the
happiness of others. At no tlma of tho year,
It there so spontaneous an outpouring of t'iQ
kindly feelings of humanity. At no other
time, are Christians so exclusively engaged in
unselfish employment; at do other tlmo so
genial and so open-hearted. Every soul, for a
poriod at least, goes out of itself, and enters
Into the toul of others. At this time, and at
this time only, Is there general obwdience to
the mandate, " love one another." Would it
were so always I Obedience to the law is
sot restraint, but emancipation. Happiness is
found only in obedience to the law. The
Chief good Is happiness the aim and object
f the law.
Who, this Christmas, has sot seen the plea
ure reSocted from the countenances of tho
throngs gilt-bearing through the streets, or
patiently awuitlng in the crowded stores.
From the opulent purchasers who buy some
costly token of regard, to the urchins who
flatten their noses against shop windows,
while, in desperation at the difficulty of choice,
they convulsively clutch their little hoard of
mOLey, all seem bent upon giving pleasure to
otheis. Tha tiny gun and penny trumpet,
tjll, in some modest household), furnish no
Jess pleasure than the eluborate sword
an 1 drum anord the wealthier infant
warrior. Th-":k S-ngcrbreatl Is quite
delightful as bhck"TaV"J coaUlu l

The discordant braying and dn,n3 0f

Mnt tinkling of inharmonious toys, will, for
many days, be music even ears polite
Men and women, ofull conditions In tile,
suw aJl on tip-toe ol exportation, and all will
hare in the gratification of not being forgot
ten. For all of us are so constituted, that
what we seek is not trumpery but love.
It Is right that this should boa period of
nnsclflsh pleasure. Follow the teachings of
One whose birth made this the greatest uuni
Torsary for mankind! Heap high tlu chil
dren's tables with tha spoils of well-stocked
toy-shops! Cram their stockings with susrar
plums and candies, long coveted with watery
mouths I Heap up your boards, and draw
around you friends wh m you love! Devote
yourselves, for this brief space, to the happi
ness of others! If you miss those whom
death has snatched away, people the place
with their presence ! For the living we live.
Lore comprises two worlds those of the
living and the dead. Let us not forget our
duty in one, in an absorbing thought of the
Other. - Forget not the poor. Let us for once
Cnjoy ourselves In unselfish pleasure share
lxjth our abundance and our joy with our
neighbor. Thus will our Christmas be merry.
In thus acting will we humbly follow in the
Jootsteps of Illm who tarnished the sublimest
Instance of forgetfulnesi of self la thus

THE CDSISlASES OF THK PAST.
3. be CluuUnas which luu come Is ripe with
Wlth and rich in blessings. As the months
pass In review before us, we have crowns of
ftjoU'lug to idavue on each. The events of the
past month or two especially, are such as to
thrill the bosom with an emotion which never
Can (rev vajild. We Lave the' great march

VT are on the ere of another triumph. We
tart paAjcd from succeb to success, and aun
that the year is fathering towards Its close, wo
may sit down In peace and contemplate our
triumphs, whilst we anticipate those to come.
Nono of the Chrlstmasei of the past have
been such seasons of rejoicing as this. Wo
have not had so much to rejoice over. In
1801 we were voxlng ourselvoi over tho not
tlement of the MAftoif and Smdki.l d'nll
culty. whilst rejoicing over tho expulsion
from the Senate of Jonx C. IiitKfKlNitmiiK.
It Is only three years since that traitor was
expelled. Sinco then we have become accus
tomed to traitors. In the beginning of De
cember, IKfll, that traitor was expelled. Tho
v. hole nation was bubbling over the Ittihul
lion, and both North and South were a"ltated
with regard to the final resolution of tho
Mason and Ni.iiiki.i, question.
In tho middle of Deeotnber, 1S!12, wo Were

No Christmas present that could poss'.blybe
made would bo more acceptable than tin cap

niond. At these places we have generals who
are doing their utmost for the Union arms,
itiid v. hose successes In the past, are so many
milestones lending on to tho good of ultimato
and las lug triumph. They are acting tha
scenes which shall pass Into song and his

most may console themselves with the convic
tion that uo Christmas of the past has brought
n.ore glory to our arms, or responded with
wore brilliant realities to tho shining hopes
ol success.
hijk rtrsntVAist k of the NiBitt rir.
It is our earnest desire, so long as wee in
duct this paper, to defend, through Its columns,
the institutions of God, and, so far as in us
Iks, to advance the Vist luterests of man. In
vindicating the claims of beth tho Creator and
His creation to the Sabbath, wa attain both
ends proposed. It Is the day of God as it is
the day of man. It ascends for Its, authority
to the throne of the Almighty, and it reaches
with iu blessings down Into the dreariest
caverns of human wretchedness and despair.
At a time when the very existence of God is
not only questioned, but opouly impugned,
and in a city where, by public advertisements,
we nre nil invited to listen to lectures on nit
tliw Divine, but tho Devil-begotteu nat'ira of
all religion of all Sabbath rest, and
ol all sanctuary service we consider
it high time for the press to utter
its not uncertain voice. This question might,
in tho estimation of some be more properly
canvassed in the pulpit. It is true It is a
question for tho pulpit, for tho Church is con
cerned. It is also a question for the press, for
the world is concerned. In urging tho claims
of the Sabbath, it should not be forgotten that
there were by God's direct appointment three,
great Paiadisalcal institutions, and that the
Sabbath was one of them. Tho first in order
Is Labor. The secoud is Rest on the Holy
Sabbath. The third is Matrimony. These
are, the three conditions of human existence.
If a man will not work, noithur shall he eat.
If a man do not rest In the midst of
bis labors, be will soon rest from his
labors altogether; and if folks neither
marry nor are given in marriage, the race
w ill become extinct. No sane man will arue
that all things could go on prosperously if the
wheels of human Industry should stop their
mighty whirl; nor can we got many out of a
mad-houso who would defend the abolition of
marriage, and how is it that so many deny, if
not in words, yet in practico, the obligations
of that other institution of Heaven which lies
between the two defended, it would seem, by
both, because more sacred than they ? How,
we ask, can men fall downbefore and worship,
without any hypocrisy, two of these institu
tions, and refuse even ordinary ripest to the
most GoddJts of the thrse?
The first Idea of a Sabbath is that otreal;
and how sweet it is to the laboring man! Just
as certainly as tho huge wheels and massive
bars of the machine will wear and tear each
other into destruction, if not repaired by the
mechanic and lubricated by oil, will man,
with all his exquisite proportions, wear down
to premature death, if not refreshed with
sufficient and periodic rest. Nature craves
her slinre of repose. Nor does she crave in
vain, for when Saturday night returns, the
poor, overtasked man rests on happy exjynTjL
lion of that blessed Sabbath .-m(.n f ,
the wear and tear daj,a, ,al)or . 8ni
fortified. w.'a ,u enjoyments, he goes foith
V Co labor again, liko a giant lefreshed with
wine. Above all men living tho workiugman
should be Jealous of the Sabba h. The rich
may sjend half the summer in travel at the
Hirinns, or by the seaside, but the laborer Is
ever at the wheel ; and such is his scantiuess
of reward for bis toil, and the greedui9s of
many masters who employ hlin, that If God
.(lid not legislate lor him, and, in spitu of him
self and his taskmasters, cummanil him to rest
one day in seven, he would not live hall his diys.
The French atheists presumed to ulier ths
laws ol Heaven, and decreed that France
should have a Sabbath once iu ten days. As
well might they havo commanded the summer
to smile upon the earth onee In a thousand
years as easily could Canutk make tha tide
go back, as could any nun or monarch alter
with Impunity the regulations of the Eternal
France tried two experiments uuiquo as
awtul. She tried to do without a God, aud to
do without the Sabbath. She could do neither
France must have a God, though she does not
worship Him ; and she must have a Sabbath,
though she degrade herself In desecrating it.
The Sabbath Is like some lovely but lonely
island, cut off from tho great continent of time,
around which swells aud roars the ever-restless
"sea of troubles," aud irom which man
may behold that "better land," "where the
Wtary ure at rest."

Trofcssor Goluwin Suitii has returned to
England, and almost the first lines he wrote
for the public eye formed a letter to the Lon
don Duily JVT, complimenting the United
States soldiers, and especially those of the
Army of the Potomac. While on a Tlslt to
this country, be vkuted Lieutenant-General
Chant at his headquarters, and was received
by that noble chieftain with the attention and
consideration due to a man so eminent for
learning, aud so fully imbued with the love of
liberty. He saw the Army of the Potomac,
and wan urnr1ud to find It so tine a body of
ldleri. In his letter he remarks that, after
careful examination Into their condition,
their discipline and diill, he cousidurs them
eqtinl to any soldiers In the world. With the
cidicers ho was particularly pleased, regtrdlng
them In manners and in cultivation the peers,
II not the superiors, of ofliicrs In the Kuropean
armies.
The soldiers are so well cared for, that tin
Trolossor assumes this fart to be proof of th i
war being fought for a principle, and not from
mercenary motives, or the idea of conquest.
During bis stay with the army, ho obuinnd
much valuable information upon which to baso
bis opinions respecting the contest raging
between the North and South. 1 Iu discovered
that our army Is not the "wild mob" which
such correspondents ns " Manhattan" would
try to make the woibl believe, but rather a
body of intelligent men, many of who.n are
his own equals in Ik IIcs lc!trcn mid science.
Tho testimony ol 1'rofessor Smith will havo
great weight witli tho belter portion of tha
r.nglish people, and it will do much to d's
abnso the'r minds of the urejnd'ces raised
against us by Itebel sympathizers In their
midst, A fair ami candid statement of tha
cruho of this war, of the manner In which it Is
carried on, and the purpose for which It Is
waged on both sides, written by Professor
Smtii, could not fail to exert a brneflel d
Influence upon KuKlishmcii, and open their
eyes to the truth that the South is fighting for
slavery ulono and a slave empire, while the
North is battling for the preservation of tho
Union and the sacred rights of humanity and
freedom, lielweeit tho two, intelligent and
liherly-loviiig Knglishmen will not halt long
In their opinions and preferences.

Newspapers In various parts of tho country
arc busy In suggesting names for tho vacant
mission to Franco. Assuming that tho posi
tion of Mr. IiiMEl.ow as the chief Minister of
our nation near tho Government of Loins
Natoi.kon Is but a temporary one, It Is not
Improper tliut Pennsylvania should present a
gentleman whose appoint, ucut would be
bailed with general satisfaction, and who com
bines all the requisites for such a trust. We
can name ono of our follow-citl.ons who is
particularly qualified for so exalted a situation.
We allude to Moirrox Mi:Mioii aki., Es j., of
Philadelphia.
It is unnecessary for us to speak of tho per
sonal fitness of the gentleman we have named
for an able and faithful discharge of grave and
responsible diplomatic functions. His long
and blameless life in this his native city ; his
fervent devotion to our country through all
its trials; and his legal training and prac
tical experience in public, aflairs, all
combine to make such an appointment de
sirable to the Government and gratifying
to tho loyal sentiment of tho nation. Mr.
M:MiciiAKL is aa eminent citizen of our
Commonwealth. Ho Is l.nown and esteemed
from one end of it to the other. His selection
would tend to harmonize tho jealous and fac
tious quarrels that have sj long disgraced our
State olitic8 and impaired our usefulness.
We leel sure that President Lincoln could
do no more graceful act towards tho Kcystouo
State than to tender the appointment to Mr
McMichakl. Tho country can certainly
obtain the services of no stronger intullect, or
the labors of a more diligent and vigilant
representative.
A HEIT HATrl.K.
How many, In civil lite, understand what a
great battle is? They have dim ideas of its
being a rapidly shifting panorama, in which
blood, and agony, and strife, and thunder, and
contusion are inextricably blended. But they
cannot conceive its details. They do not pic
ture to themselves correctly the parts which
make up tho whole. Tho reports of war cor
respondents, although they give singularly
correct information and graphic dcsciiptions,
give but a very fceblo idea of what a battle is.
In reudiug them we too often regard them as
a mere list of casualties, and omit to attach
Intelligent ideas to the words.
As a sample of what a battle Ls, take tho late
struggle between TnOM as and Hood. Tho
Nashville Union gives a detailed account of
its progress. From it we learn that Genor
Tuomau' order of attack w?.S ok follows :
"1. A. J. taitu's Corps on the right, and cover
ilil iii Uranny White piko.
'2. The 4th Corps immediately to the left, the
1st Divinon m the centre, ttie -m on the left, and
the 3d on the right. The 1st Division was com
manded by tkneral Kimball, the 2d by General
Ml unt, and 1 lie 3d by Oonerul Beany. The.e ad
vanced on Fr.inkliup ike, the 1st Division resting
its left upon it.
"3. Siiadnmii's Corps moved out tho Marfeps
boro pike, Tith instructions to gradually m ive
to the right and join on the ItU Corns. His wax
mand consisted of iha division of Genoiul Criilt
and two brigades ot colored troops, th'
being on the extreme left.

D Le' - cavalry were ocul down the Uillshoro
fl , with orders to operate on tho raugo of hills
to which I have referred, and if possible Intercept
iu iveuui icireat or worry nia llanKB.
''At ench step of oar advance a heavy line of
skirmishers was tlirowa out, as pioaeeri, and
wLea these had reported all clear, oi driven the
Itrheis back, batteries were pushed forward,
which indulged in a few shells, when the skir
mishers wcie again ordered on. In this way, a
mile and a half ot (round was passed evor, until
our liu i had advanced about half a mile beyond
tho Thompxin place, which ls tour and i tif
Uii es from tho city, w hen tho Ilobil skiraiih
line came into full view, and definite iu'brm ition
as to their general positioa bejau to be attainable ;
tin ir main works were yet uninble, th ugh their
front line wus plainly seen, tt-jre a halt was
ordered.
In describing the carrying of the first line
of works the shout ruised by the 4th Corps is
represented as having been loud and long.
' One vol'ey," says the account, "was tired, and
tlitn, with bayonets fixed, onward wuut itit) men,
until more Ihau hall the ap tee over which toey
bud to gu was p issid, when a slight halt, a load,
and another v.jlley as the prelude to a second
yell and charge. The men hallo, I uo more till
within fifty jarui of the Itebel works, when the
deadly tire which met them c.an-ed th m to halt
and retnin it. In this poi iou bath parties
tiring furiously tlie belligerents remained at
lent five inniutes. A seetluu ef artillery
employed by the Hebels could no longer
Iks nnd, so close was tho range, and there
were indications that tho gunners were about to
attempt to move them off, when our gallant men
determined to secure them as trophies, and once
mere essayed to the charge, iiut the turrilie
storm of bullets was too luach ; aguin they halted,
and a few men very tew indc.d, not more than
one in ten broke lor the rear; and the Rebels
raited a shout of triumph. Jiut this only mad
dened the assailants, who now dclied them and
ruthed up to the works. The low who had com
menced to letreat teeing tins, wheeled around,
and in a tew moments were ones more In their
posts; and with one wild shout their stuud trds
were planted on lbs Itebel battlements, and tho e
who hud to stoutly held them tied in coututiou to
the rear."
The ensuing passage will give some idea of
the breakneck flight of the Uebcls :
"From this time the rotreat of the Kebols
became a miscellaneous aud disorderly rout.
Hundreds of them threw down their arms and
surrendered, among them a brigadier-general
General Jackson. Unr men rushed on. They
were resiktvd no longer; all they had to do was
to pursue, and they did this with ths same will
aud spirit thai they had exhibited on making the
charge. Though greatly fatigued, they rushed
on headlong, gathering up prisoners by scores at
every rod of their progress.
When it has facts to work upon, Imagina
tion can do much hi picturing vividly war
scene. The battle between TJooo and
Thomas was a great one. The more truth
ful are our conceptions of tho scenes amid
which victory is won, the more truly will we
"honor those who help to win It.

tho reception of gifts, such at clothing, shoes,
etoekiiigs, bonnets, and other artir'rs, calculated

A lino Christmas tree was placed in the win
dow, upon which were suspended almost every
thing that tho mind could think of that would
pltaso and comfort the sniftering. As tho goods
were distriiiuled the countenances of the young
rvtipii nts would light np with joy, so thut th;
I ulies who were Instrumental in Jiiug np the
allair were well repaid tar ihoir troulilo.
One of tho ladies con-ecetd with this charity,
Mrs. Ileni'OD', baa collected over lyi)0 during
the season towards this object, and others have
alio mot with much success in their cffjrts la
