J."'. 8 THE DAUji ttfENIcr TELEGRAPHTRIPLE SHEET PinLADELPIIIA, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 23, 1808. NEW YORKI3MJB. fy-on Our Own Corrtdnt, Naw Tobk. Dee. 33, 1863. If n a former Utter I mado any disparaging ttmatka about CHRISTMAS TOTS, I beg to be forgiven. I belters I said that few or so new onee bad pat tu an appearance this win ter, but a recent visit to Maiden lane-for years the headqat rtcra of he toj trade has convinced ma that I was precipitate. In the first place, the velocipede not the old fashioned concern with three wheels and per pendicular arms but the recent Parisian new thing, has invaded the Maiden lane toy stores, and Is thero to be purchased, full size. There are smaller sizes for children, md modlQcattons, With cushioned scats and three wheels, for ladles 1111 1 ft el a conscientious triumph in the cou. fiction that I was right when I informed the infantino readers of Tub Evbnimq Tblbqbaph that the doll market continued very dull. A boy doll has, indeed, been Invented, who peram bulates with feet of the average size for boy dolls, but who Is attached to a wheelbarrow, which be is fondly believe! to be trundling, while, In fact, it Is the wheelbarrow that is trundling htm. When this boy and his barrow aro wound up tbey circumambulate the apart ment tor the space of a Hash of lightning, aud pre altogether an Immense success. Another reproduction ot a toy that Is not old Is the "White Fawn." a sort of miniature ballet, calculated to excite In the infant niind a taste for the Jarretl-and-Palineiism whose day Is .well-nigh past. At the Japanese warerooms on Broadway some of the most Ingenious and extravagant trifles in the way of tojs are sets of darning monkeys. These win vast attention, which la liatnraf when we remember that men are but gorillas of a smaller growth. AT ST. ALBAN'fl, the ritualistic chapel, preparations of the most rltualletlcally magnificent character are in pro greta. At 0 to-morrow evening the first Vesper of the Nativity is to be observed there, and at midnight the first celebration ot the Holy Eu charist. On Friday morning there are to be choral matins at 10, and the celebration of the iloly KucharUt, with sermon Immediately after. Thapks to the investigations of Mrs. 8. 8. Norton, chairwoman ot the committee of inves tigation appointed by the Working women's Association, it appears that the B40PICKEBB r NEW TOBK re twelve hundred in numbers that about one half of them lorm a colony lu Willett street, and the other half a colony to the west of Cen tral Park. These raeplckers have " doubtless gone to the ant, considered her ways, and be come wise alter their lashion; for they dress while It la yet nigh', namely, about an hour after midnight, and scour the city ot all the ragi, paper, bones, scraps of bread, broken gla8, and garbage of every description. Some of tueni make only 44 cents a day; others as much as $18 per week, rOSTHATXR KELLY lias bad his house robbed, and I hope that the new uniforms he bas indicted upon the letter carriers have nothing to do with it. Tbw cntlorm consists of a due admirture of a s&ctf-coat, vest, and pants of the same material, With gilt buttons and black stripes. The entire cost of the uniform is reckoned at $42, but the existence of the uniform itself does not seem to comport with our institutions. MB. B. H. 8TODDAED lias retired from the Albion, ot which be has been for many jcais the literary editor. I be lieve he is to be superseded by Mr. K. Corn wallis. The Brooklyn Bo aid of Aider men bas met to consider tho subject of the EAST RIVER BRIDGE. The result oi that consideration was tho Adopting of a series ot resolutions subscribing $3,000,000 for the construction of the bridge. This looks as though the projected tunnel was not goiuj? to be left alone in its glory. You will have been informed ere this, proba bly, that , CnORGB W. CHILD8 s going to erect, at his own expense, a stone Btatueof Benjamin Franklin in Central Park. The Park Commissioner were only too glad to accept Mr. Childs' handsome offer, and hence forth Philadelphians visiting New York will have a new reason for thinking Central Park equal to Fairmouut. THB THEATRES are busy In their provisions for tho holidays. La Chanson de Fortunio has been produced at Ptke'a tor the purpose of bringing out Mad'lle Inn a again, between whom and Tosteo exists ahail 1 say a generous rivalry? Weallkno bow generous prima donnas can be It ta an attenuated production, that has more musical tune tbsn moral tone. Graver's new enterprise at Tammany Hall Is announced to commence during the holidays. All ia chaos there at present, but every artist connected with it was expected to report yes terday to the stage manager. Ali 11a b a. MUSICAL JlSD DRAMATIC.

W have the evidence each day of numbers who purchase of us, after having examined other stocks, wh'cb, under different pleas, are being '-sacrificed" that our goods are sold at lower prloes than any other Clothing In Philadelphia. The general experience la that such goods are Not so Chkap as IUpbzsicnted, and the public those who bave puiobased them and tboia who have not many ot tba former to tbalr cost, are generally becoming aware of tbia fact. Ova Stock is Fctll and CoiipLBTSJ, our assortment unbroken, we being In receipt each day of large lota of aew goods, replacing those sold, which ars being manufactured not To bh Sacbitiobd, but to successfully compete with any other goods In the market In all respects, style, fit, matte, or price.

It can only be worked by abrasl n or vrlndtng. In form the safe Is a globe, hollow, and reaemoltrig a spherical mortar shell, tbe opening for ibe fuse foriu'ng the aperture or the door. Tue safes are made of various aires, and mar be placed In the ordinary Urn proof safe. Tne thickness or tbe safe varies according to tne diameter of ibe safe, being in some instances lour Inches thick.
