CHRISTMAS KVKNING IN HUB
LKKSHUKti.
Christmas i alway* a*eaon of i ©juicing
i especially to the young. It ,wa *ucb, at
!ea*l, to the people ef Hublertburg end
vicinity. At an early hour the leer of
i the l*reb> terian church were epen and
invited young and old to come. Long be
fore the hour for the opening of the eier
|ci*# had arriveJ, the hou*e wa* fttll aU
mot to overflowing. The object, which
niott attracted attention. wa* a large Oh rill
ma* tree, well l*den with nice"and g<H>d
thing*, and beautifully lighted with was
taper*. Thl* tree wa* a friend to all; it
bore gift* for old and young, the rich and
poor, irrespective of name or denotuina*
lion It wa*, therefore, emblematical of
the coming ot ChrUt our Saviour, lie
came to save all. Tha rich and poor,
young and old, blacjf and white ; all can
cewr and partake..of the gift* whick He
brought with hun to thi* inful world,
rhi* Christmas tree, of wkich w# have
been speaking, bore some very valuable
{ill*, of w Inch the writer of thee line* and
ii* family received their full there, and
for which the kind friend* will. plea*# ac-
cept our sincere thank*. May God bl*
you richly, for your kiaJnett to hi* *er
vant for supplying hi* want*. The speak
er* on thi* occasion wero Rev. M C'ondit,
of the l'retbyterian church ; Rev, J. A.
Bright, ofth* Lutheran church, and Rev.
J. Longsdorf, of the Evangelical Asso
ciation. Rev. M. Stoat, of th* las', named
denomination wa* also invited to attend,
but could not. on account ef previous en
gagement*. Rev. Condit directed his re
mark* principally to the eld folk*, —head*
of families. He spoke with much earnest
ness of the vital importance of not neg
lecting the training'of the youthful mind,
lie advocaled.lhepluctrine of the wise man,
"train up a child in the way he should go, |
and when he is old ho will aot depart
faom it." (Prov. 22-C.J lie aleo spoke of
the Sabbath school,—the right arm of the
church, a* being neat to the family, the
place wherofthis training should be car
ried on, and of the responsibility which
rosts'upoii thvwe'who engage in this work.
His remark "take car* of the babies, and
th* men will take care of themselves,"
was certainly very true. By the way, we
hop* Rev. Condil may have hi* thare of
babies ie lake care of.
Revs. Bright and Lungtdorf also spoke
short time. Thejr|adopt*d th* Socratie
method, and by it accomplish* J their end*
It was Astonishing to all present
to hear how readily the children answered
the questions put to them. Their answers
were net such as you generally receive
from children, hut intelligent and senti
hie. The writer doee not hesitate in as
serting that there is not another Sabbath
school in Nattany Valley, and very few
in Centre Co., that will "out-anawer" the
Unien Sabbath School* of Hublershurg ;
and for all this we must thank the efficient
Superintendent, Mr. John Divent, nnd hie
able corps of teachers. All honor to them
tor their noble efforts in teaching the
! young the word ot God. which rnaketb
wise unto salvation. But we must not
forget those three little girls who "capped
the climax" by coming forward on the
stage, and without any assistance, scarce*
ly, singing that beautiful infant Sabbath
schawl hymn, "I am Jesus' Little Lamb."
jO, bow sweet I If any part of tha exercises
of the evening were more pleasing to God
than the others, it was the sweet tinging of j
these three little girls. Yea. they were
truly the "Little Lambs' of Jesus flock ;
and it was to such that He referred when
he said, "suffer them to come unto me and
forbid them not, Ac." Go on little girl*
in the ofpraising your K adeem
er—soon lie will tend hi* angels to take
you home to Himself, where you will be- ,
come lambs of that large (lock "who have j
washed their robei and made them white,
in the blood ofthe Lamb."
Now few closing remarks. We found
•niy one objection to all the exercises of
the evening, end it wee the coining into
the house of God, ■ character who wee
named "Kris K ingle," or "Belsnickle," ae
be is sometimes called. Now this we
thought, and do still think'so, was alto
gether uncalled for, and very inappropri
ate on such an occasion, via. : The cele
bration of the advent of our blessed Sav
iour. God was certainly not pleased with
this part of the exercises, it is impossible.
The appearance of this character in God's
house remember, where his name is re
corded, and where honor dwelleth, did
| not make the desired impression We
feel it our duty as God s servant, to make
these remarks. We make them in leve;
we make them for the good of us all, and
i for the glory of God. May they have
| their desired effect. J- A. B.
LETTER FROM LENA, ILL.
Lets a, 111.. Jan 6th, 1874.
EDITOU RnronTKft.—lt seems some of
the people of your town and neighbor
hood are very much concerned about my
welfare, and are anxious to know whether
lam dead or alive. Many no doubt pre
ferring the latter. By your permission I
! would say lo them through your paper
thai lam as live a man as lives in a live
town in the lively west. And I can vouch
for every one being alive that reads the
RaroKTaa. Now as the Holidays are ov
er our town is again a.-uming a business
like appearance. Hundreds ef teams are to
be seen our streets daily, laden with the
products of the broad and fertile pra ries,
waiting their turn to be unloaded at the
si ack>us elevators where they meet geod
j markets. After purchasing a few of the
necessary articles of life they return heme
with a full pocket book lo make glad the
hearts uf their wife and little ones. But
Ibe farmers are not the only ones that en
joy themselves, as we were convinced on
■ Christmas eve, when looking over the vast
i audience that crowded the Lutheran
church in our town, thero were two very
fine evergreen trees, beautifully ornament
' ed, and laden with choice end precious
gifts, amounting to seven hundred and
twelve dollars and twenty-five cents.
What joy was pictured on every counte
nance as the gifts were called off and pass
ed to the owner I—amongst the rest the
worthy Pastor, Rev. Treasler, was not for
gotten, receiving for himself and family

going to decay, and thia chief justice
matter is a good sign of it.
The lower house, at Harrisburg, on
Bth, passed the following;
Kaeolved, By the Senate and House of
Representative* of Pennsylvania, That it
is the true intent and meaning of the new
Constitution that the fcrst mi on of the
tinnaral Assemhiy elected under its pro
visions begins on the first Tuesday of Jan
uary, IHT&, and tba members of the House
of Representatives thereof shali be elected
at the general elactiun of 1874
The vote stood—Ayes, '>l. nays, 2.
AN INTERESTING COLLOQUY
BETWEEN MESSRS. TIPTON
AND SHERMAN.
The following intereeting little talk
took place between two radical seua
tors a few days ago :
Mr. Sksrman said he w uld vote fer the
amendment, a* h* could stand th* smaller
pay a. wall a* the other Senator*.
Mr. Tipton said he hardly knew how to
express himself in parliamentary language
a. to lb* desire of Senators to accomplish
indirectly that which they cannot accom
plish directly. The gentleman from Ohio
(Sherman) aaid he could atand living on a
small salary. Perhaps he can, when tb*
last documtut which come* to my table
(producing a paper) speak* of man like
Sherman of Ohio, the head ef the Finance
Committee, now a millionaire, who came
into Con great poor.
Mr. Sherman—l a*k the Senator from
Nebraska if that is true T
Mr. Tipton—l know nolhiag about it, I
giv# it a* 1 get it.
Mr. Sherman—Well, Mr. President,
that i* grossly unaanaterial and grossly
false The Senator who introduced that
statement ber* violates hi* duty as a Sen
ator, and deserve* tba condemnation of all
his fallow Senator*
Mr. Tipton said ha did not think it dis
creditable to read the fart It was not dis
creditable to th* gentleman, a* other* had
come to the Senate poor anv are new
rich. He meant nothing against the char
acter or integrity of the Senator from
Ohio.
A bill haa been introduced into
CoDgreaa providing for tbe appoint
ment of a Railroad Commiwinner,
who (hall revise and regulate freighU
and tariff* on railways. This ia un
derstood to lie a Granger luovemeut,
and a strong opposition to its passage
by the railroad interests, is predicted.
The Supreme Court of the Suie of
Texas has decided adversely to the
election law framed by the Thirteenth
Legislature, under the provisions of
which the recent election was held.
This decision annuls the late election,
and retains in office the Thirteenth
Legislature and the present Governor,
Governor Davis. There is great ex
citement in Texas over this decision,
aod an open outbreak io some quar
ters is apprehended. Louisiana may
be duplicated iu Texas.
The bill repealing the Bankrupt
Law, which pasted i lie lower house
of Congress the other day, provides
that cases now in the process of
adjudication shall not be affected by
such repeal, aud that the law shall be
oonlioued, so far as these cases are
couoerned, until adju licit ion shall
have been accomplished. It also re
duces the fees of officials under the
Bandrupt Law iu such cases fifty per
ceut.
The Baltimore aud Ohio railroap
and the Pennsylvania railroad are
just uow having a lively quarrel.—
fhe result is the passenger fare be
tween Philadelphia and Pittsburgh
has been reduced to 17, and between
Pittsburgh and Baltimore to $4. —
How long this child's play will last of
course uo one can tell.
