On Christmas-Morn the sunlight breaks,
And all the world to gladness wultes.
The leaves are dead. ,The birds are tied.

Oh, day of days most dear, most dear,

Heavily ban); is our Christmas-tree,
It's boughs, they glitter for you and me.
The hemlock branches, piled with snow,
In evergreen woods bend not so low.
God giveth all. The ravens call.
He bears them. So let us begin,
He bears al way, when children pray ;

Labor n NeceSsiy:
We are in this world to do. Did ever a
people realize this—Lthat we were put here
to act? The curse put upon Adam effects
us all—we must . all_ work in some way.
Idleness is rust, deterioration is death ; it
is defeating God's purpose; shrinking
one'S drity. We are made to work ; every
thing indicates this—our hands, our feet,
our brain, our necessities, our enjoyments
all point to the first great intent, labor.
So the bee toils; the, birds, to" perpetuate
their species, provide their food, to sing,
to sit still, only to rest. Labor is motion.
The "world is motion. That which is most
active is the most : healthy and enjoyable.
Stagnant water is foul; living water pure.
So with the air ; so with man, pre eminent
ly. Alt what health comes frjm • action !
wlit strength I what beauty!—beauty of
expi‘sion, agility, and the power toplcuse
' This is what we want—we
Want it everywhere. We want it, mtirk
you, not over done.' We want it dune as
God ordered it, according to human pro
gress-7notto exhaust and injure the body.
and . at the sometime the mind as well, to
say nothing of :tbe most impor taut of all,
the morals, for which we were all made.
Work mentally, morally, physically; ex
ercise the body. the maid, and the affec
tions ; that is'their cultivation. But do
not 'strain them, and thus hurt them;
avoid. extremes. It is as bad to be too
active as to lazy. Act then, as the wind
acts, the brook flows, the stars course.
Here is no clash, no uurt.
JOHNSON encourages his offi
cial thieves to rob the nation of hundreds
of millions of dollars, and then endeavors
to injure the national credit by stating
that our expenditures are exceeding our
income! Johnson's "whiskey ring" has
taken more than half the revenue justly
due the govertnyout from the tax on
whiskey. Grant will disperse the forty
thieve.o as icon :is he gets in power, and
then we may hope for a better report from
the Treasury It is hoped that some of,.
the plethoric rogues may be made to dis
gorge, if there is any way to reach them.
A BRIDGEPORT palm r tells a story of a
young somnambulist iu Stratford, Conn.,
who went down to the dock and fished for
an hour without having a bite, and then
went back to bed, and in the morning was
entirely unconscious of' his excursion.

This Lock does away with all objections hereto
fore raised against Window Locke, and its
superiority over all others consists in the fol-
lowing reasons:
Ist--It holdsthe sash up square at the meeting
rail, so the opposite corner will not sag thereby
preventing an opening at the top of the window,
or at the meeting rail.
2d—lt holds the window at any desired bight,
and locks the sash at the same time, so that it
cannot be toned open from the outside.
:id—There is no cutting so sts - to disfigure the
sash, frame, or casing. nor friction that will
cause It to get out of order; and nothing to pre
vent its lasting as long as your dwelling,
4th—lt is as simple as the old fashioned door
button, and can be operated with as much ease.
You have the use of both hands in mising your
sash, which is operated with the same freedom
as those hung with cords and weights, the sash
es operating entirely independent of each other.
sth—Not more than one window In twenty is
fitted with cords, pulleys, and weights, nor can
they be without being expressly' arranged with
expensive box-trames, making the total expense
for the convenience from 64 to $lO per window.
This Sash Lock gives all the convenience of a
Modern Window at a inere fraction of the above
cost, and can be used in all windows.
It is endorsed by the best architects, carpen
ters, and builders as being the best Sash Lock
ever brought to their notice.
We have made arrangements with the well
known firm of BRECKENRIDGE & CO., Gen
eral Hardware Manufacturers, West Meriden,
Connecticut, to manufacture and keep in store a
fu I supply of these Locks and Trimmlngs,which
is a sufficient guurrantee that the goods will be
promptly furnished to customers on Reasonable
Terms and in good order.
Those wishing a good thing will hod it to their
interest to call and examine its working and
give their orders, as they can be secured only
through us or our regular authorized Agents.
