BROADBRIM'S N. Y. LETTER.
Tbe Christmas Chimes are rinsing. a;,v
as I sit hero listening and writing, the
notes, loud, and clear and swpet, sound to,
much like & requiem as a jubilee. Neai
me are a couple of little sleepers; perhaps
drtamlng of the golden visions of tbo com
ing morrow if in slumbers so profound the
happy sleepers ever dream. The belli,
ring out, I drop my pen and close my eyes,
and float awav In memory through the
sweep of years, long since dead, and tin
brightest hopes of which are dust and ashes.
How long; ah, how long It seems since 1
lay like these happy sleepers, waiting fnr
Christmas room. I have often wished
that tbe spell bad never been broken, and
that Santa Claus in his furry coat, all
covered with snow and soot, could as llin:
a reality to me to-night as hu was in tin
long ago. I have eaten of the fruit of the
tree of knowledge, nut It has brought me
no happiness; It has turned to ashes on m
lips. In pursult.of the earth, ever to find
the fickle goddess fleeing and beonduj)
reach. I have struggled a lifetlmo foi
the bubble reputation, only to realize ulih
the psalmist, "that all Is vanity," and now
those midnight chimes remind not n1il ol
tbe birth of Christ, hut that anolner jeai
will soon be numbered with the dead.
Watchman I what of the night? What
hath occured since the ringing of the lust
Christmas chimes? A change in the nation
al di nasty a fierce political battle fought,
In which armies aggregating ejeyen millions
of men were engaged, and when the result
was announced, tbe defeated army laid
down its arms and surrendered the govern
ment, to tho victors, for which Uod be
thanked at theChristmas time. Marvelous
has been tbe growth of these two great
cities of New York and Brooklyn; 6luee
these Christmas chimes were ringing
year ago over one hundred thousand have
been added to their population, and In a
recent address, by tbe Mayor of Brooklyn
to tbe municipality, he uttered the pro
phecy, which will no doubt be fulfilled,
that within a decade, Biooklyu In point ol
population will be the first cltj In the Union
In tbe past year between thiity ana fort)
millions of people have crossed its might)
bridge, and so sdmlrable liaye been It
arrangements .for transooratlon, thai not
one In a million has been injured.
Notwithstanding the mad struggle for
fortune ou Wall street, with all of Its maul
fold faults and transgressions, good )m
come out of Nazareth. Croesus has not
closed his heart to the pitiful appeal of
charity, grand, beneficent, holy, which
these children of fortune have generously
endowed; where tbe destitute and ailing
poor can receive better treatment and bet
ter care, than England's King could hav
commanded for untold gold a century ago,
Tbe hearts of the rich respond to tbe cry
of charity; for this God be thanked at
this Christmas time.
Should the belief In Illm be shaken
whose name Is now supreme on this sacred
holiday, no greater calamity hath befallen
mankind In-all ages. It Is the poor who
would miss blm tbe sick, (he botneltts
the forsaken, the dying. Wherever the sun
rises to-morrow on tbe haunts of men and
civilization asset Is her sway, there will
rise the "Ilosanna" and "Gloria. In Ex
celsts Deo" that tbe child Is born and that
Christ has come. That he has come and
Is bsrt, Is not a fairy tale. Come with me
nt UU tk strtsti, and we it kit
work active and living In this very hour,
We are In Park Row; who arc tbcso little
waifs that crowd around tbe newspaper
offlcos In tbo raw and frosty air of this
Christmas morning. These are the distri
butors of news the street Arabs of whom
you hayo heard so much and know so little.
Many of them have no father, no mother,
no home ', tho flotsam and jetsam of the
streets. Are they then forgotten? Oh, no;
In Christ's name they have been cared for
they have been taken from the streets,
lodged, clothed and fed In bis name, and
on this, his special holiday thor will enjo
a feast which will make their hearts re
joice.
The homes of the poor will be mado
triad, and even the prisoner looking out
hrotigh tho hard bars of his cell will havo
a respite from his punishment, and thank
God even fiom the dopth of his sln-scarrcd
soul that Christ was born among men.
Then bow maav millions of homes will be
brighter and happier as tbe children rush
down stairs on this Christmas morning to
see what the good of old St. Nick has done
for the good little boys and girls. Looking
at these things, who would sweep away
this holiday? If,- Indeed, these glorious
and holy memories which are all that now
remain to me of life, be but a myth and a
shadow, he docs me no service who destroys
in golden idols. No, let roe dream on to
. lie end which, for me, is not now so far
ulf, and with my head on the pillow near
the litt e sleepers let mo listen to tbo Christ
inas chimes.
The streets have been crowded and tbe
stores were full. The riches of tbe world
ire In these windows and on these shelves.
Marvelous, most marvelous tho dlsplav 1
The gorgeous products of India and Per
ilan looms aro everywhere. Soft robes
from Cashmere, silks from Lyons, costly
atln brocatcllcs from English looms; dla
uonds from Africa, Golconda and Brazil;
matchless pottery, In the creation in which
i he gnlusof the world seems to have been
exhausted. What marvels of art and
neauty are these, and they tell of an age
( luxur.v and magnificence unknown and
iindrcamtof In tbe Republic before. Noth
ing shows more effectively our advance In
aslbetlcs than tbe eostly playthings and
beautifully Illustrated books for children to
tie seen In this holiday time. Some of the
hooks are got up lu Germany, and the ill
ustrations are worthy of the finest album
In the world. Jany wealthy people hav
single books prepared for Christmas card
at a cost of a hundred and fifty and two
Hundred dollars, and considering thai the
illustrations are all executed by hand, and
hat the poetry Is frequently the compos I
ion of the artist, and the work may be
considered very cheap.
As I intimated above, Christmas Is a
inllday ol rejoicing In all of our prison
ind public Institutions, and aside from the
'Ity's bounty, tbe benefactions of palvatc
ndivlduals help to swell tbe bill of fare to
be proportion of an Alderman's feast. It
s a gladsome day for the newsboys; they
ire never forgotten at Christmas. On that
'ay all tbe newsbo s ate collected in the
ilfferent lodging houses and in addition to
i turkey dinner they have cake pic, coffee
4iid Ice cream and a royal entertainment in
he evening.
The Metropolitan Art JAiseum opened
In a blase ot glory. In tho new wing the
Catherine N. H'olfe collection has been
placed, and there are many other pictures,
art treastues and curious beside, nans
Markart's grand, picture of "Dlna's Hunt

Ion at tho Twcnt, -third street art galleries,
Occupies a splendid position In the main
all and was tbe gift of a wealthy lady,
''nnnat's large painting of "Tno Spanish
Quartette," which was for mail months on
xblbltlon at Scbatis', haB also been pro
moted to the Jfuseum by Madame II. Dan-
mt. An attratctlve exhibit to tbe ladles
9 the collection of rare laces left by will to
be Museum by the late Mrs. Jacob Astor,
who was known as the newsbots friend. It
is a wouderful collection. Gathered from
very portion of the world and represent
ing In each value not fw from one bun-
Ired thousand dollars. The, Cyprian col
lection, purchased at great cost from Gen-
ral Cessnola, of gold and silver ornament ,
ureclous jewels and rare articles ofveitu
itnd art from the Isle of Cvorus. have
plendld quarters on the upper and lower
tloor of the new wing. The new additions
n almost ever., departmeni are of priceless
value in the sludei.t of history or art. The
ollectlou of Egyptian mummies is yeij
Jlue, and all ot them are In an admirable
tale of preservation. There has been an
entire rearrangement lu. all the depart
ments, and tbe classficatlon Is most excel
lent. At the end ot tbe gallery devoted to
.Miss Wolfe's collection of paintings is a
noble portrait of her father and a full
length portrait of herself by Cabiual
Xever beautiful, not even pretty, there I:
something tiitxpresslbly lovely about the
expression of her face that marks uer oui
as one of nature's queens. Through all
her life she scatteied along bur palhwa)
the golden sheaves of charity and blessing,
and now, though the gentle heart is still
aud her tongue Is silent, Jet each da , In a
language uijre eloquent than wolds, she
speaks iO the thousands who, visiting this
splendid collection, have cause to bless her
memory and her bount.
At tbe opentntr the bluest of our blue
blood turned out en matte and Ward JVc
Alllster's four hundred elite were there In
force, with hundreds of other notables he
side. I saw twenty men In the crowd
whose aggregated wealth is not far from a
thousand millions of collars, and a score of
women widows and maidens, old and
young, pretty and and and nut quite so
pretty, who would have been a good catch
fur a king. It was a notable assembly; ex
cessively polite ana exceedingly gooc
Matured. The company das been selected

Tbe effect of tbe meeting was almost in
ktantly visible. Jones thought If Smith
could afford to make such a gift to the
museum that he would see to il that li
uch a grand Institution, the Jones' were
not surpassed by the bmlilis, who were
nothing a few jears ago but but never
mind. Jane, my dear, tell Mr. CVanola
that we will send him up grandfather'
clock and Uncle John's cabinet that be
longed to Charles tbe Second; tbe chal

of ancient fnrniture and bric-a-brac, and In
addition to these are some costly and mag'
nlfieent Gobelins. And so, on the topmost
wave of prosperity, this excellent Instltu
tlon enters on tbe twentieth )ear of Its ex
IsUnce, a boon to the present generation
as I trust II will be to the future.
The Christmas bells ring out loud an
clear on the frosty air, Gloria, Gloria,
Gloria. To us this day a child of hope Is
born, to us a son is given. A son whose
beatflcence, whose powtr and wbos glory
swell through tk earth, and rolling dewn
tho ages fills the hearts of men witliiiopo
love and charity as no namo eyerdld before
since Creation's dan n. The cares of life,
Its sorrows, Its disappointments and Its
jrlefs may render thankless tho hearts of
those- who have breasted In Its storms and
blights for fifty years. But with this com
ing dawn untold millions of blessings wll,
rlso from ll.'lle hearts and tongues, as yet
unseared.by sorrow, on Ills head who said,
"Suffer llttlo children to come unto mo
and forbid them not, for of such Is tho
kingdom of heaven." Hall, then, most
glorious holiday of tho year. Fling out, oh
beilsl oh Anthem swell out a merrj Christ
mas to all!
