CHRISTMAS.
A IFIJIIT FROM NT: 1111C110LAR.
.ctsstalvi:c,
, Twati the itlg4 before Chrtatuual. when all through 'the
Not a creature wan stirring, riot inn a unitise
The stockings were hung by thechimney with care, -
in hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there;
The children were nestled all enugin their beds, • -
'While visions of sugarplums danced hi their, heads;
And Mamma in her .kerchief and lin my cap,: • ~
Had Rat settled our brains for a long winters nap, • •
When out on the lawn.thensarose such a clatter. • ..,
I sprang from the bed. to see what was the - hiattei;
Away to the Nsladowl dew like 'a flash,.
Tore open the shutter and threw pp the sash.
The moon on the breast of the new.fallen snow •
Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below.. '
When,. what to my wondering eyes should appear, •
But a miniature sleigh , andeight tiny reindeer, .
With a little old driver so lively and
I knew In a moment it must be. St. Nick. ••
'
More rapid.than eaglei his coursers they came, '•
And he whistled and shouted and called them hrnatim.:
"Now Dasher I now Dancer ihow. Prancer and Vixen I.
On,.Comet I on, Cripld i on,Honder and Blitzed!.
To the top of-the porch to the top of the wall •
Now dash away I of-the.
away I. dashlaway all I" • •
As dry leaves that before the wind hurricane 'fly,: •
When they meet'with an obstacle, mount to the sky
Sato.the heuse.top•the coursers they flew, ..
With the sleigh full of toys, and St, Nicholas too,
And then, in a twinkling. I heard mithe roof
The prancing and pawing of, cacti little, hoof--
Air! dam in my head, and was turning around.
DoWn the chimney St, Nicholas came with a boand:
He was dressed MLitt fur from his head to his foot, •,
And his clothes were alitainished with asheti and soot
A bundle of toys he had flung on his back. • '
And he looked like a peddler Just opening his. pack. •
His eyes, how they twinkled I his dimples, how,, merry
'His cheekawere like wises: his nose tike a cherry
His droll little.mbuth was drawn up like a bow.:
And the beard of his chin was as white as the snow ; ^
The stump of a pipe he held. tight in hie teeth,
,*. •
And the stimke it encircled his head like a wreathC;
He had a broad face' and a little round belly,
That shook, when he laughed,' like a bowl 'full of jelly.
He was 'chubby and plump. 'a right jolly old elf,
And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself;.
A wink of his eye, and a twist of his head. _
Soon gave me to' know I had nothing to dread ; •
lie spoke not 'a word, but went straight to his work.
And Oiled all the stockings; then turned with a jerk,.
And laying tingeraside 'of his nose,
And, giving a nod, up the' chimney he rose;

gave Hood such an unmerciful handling.—
The hotels and private boarding hopes were
filled to overflowing, and the floors of _the

claims, so that your humble servant had the
pleasure of sitting upon the. steps -of the St..
C.oud, until daylight,- :and the znaWings .of
an inner something, admonished me, to seek
.my breakfast. The:trains for Chattanooga
were stopped "until further orders," and as
I found I was likely to make.a stay here,, .I
commenced a systematic survey of the situ

.:saw :our: friend Capt.
Ramsey. Who, was flourisliing. een 88 a bay

obtained. As it was," glimpses only were ob-- -
tanned between the shovelsfull, or rather by
the shovelful.l Since then all has been bus

with wagons and cavalry, and the sidewalks
with jostling men—the smoke from the camp

The only: rent fear has hem that they would
succeed in cutting the Louisville road, and
thuslay siege to us, but it is not contraband

and rations, to laugh Hood' to scorn, even
- with that unpleasant addition to affairs. ,He
has been rebuilding, the railroads in his rear,.

co-operation from Breckenridge, lay in win

somc - little birds, and despite a- strong feint
..made upon our lines, to=day, it is pretty cer
tain that he is striving-to cross the Tennessee
River,. before. Gen: Thomas can discover and
doubt,
chase. An advance, without much
doubt, from the truth of this opinion, will be
made to-morrow, or will lead to a decisive
battle, and a great - Victory,. 'So mush for the
situation. More anon. .
Prices and rents are enormous here. The

'Agents, in whose room 'steep, (on the floor),

city tax, and his Internal_ revenue. 'lf ho
wasn't a returned soldier, he would'have to
pay a great deal more. ThO prices of edibles
and bibibles are really fabulous.. The Capi
. tol is beautifully situated onn• the hiLthest part
• of the hill upon-which the city is.built,
,and is
fortified; pallisadedandiloopholed, and brist
ling with cannon; and anxious Visitors crowd
the gates 'for admission to see the smoke of
the distant batteries:and speculate: upon the
"great unknown.," A magnificent hotel, the
Zollicoffer, stands.herela an unfinished state,
. aud.used as a barracks. In a finished state;
it. would not have been-excelled by even our
own, Continental, but alas! it is confiscated
property,*and is
,filthy in .the extreme. The
owner is the most'succeasful of the %filming
.ton blockade-runners, and is, said to be rich
enough to ceverit with gold.
The Pennsylvania Military Agent. here, is
Lt. Col. Chamberlain, .of the li2d Reg.-P. V.,
and is here for the purpose of attending direct
ly to the.wants of the Pennsylvania boys, who
mein this department. keeping records of all
admissions .to hospitals, - discharges, deaths,
and other statistics that are continually called
for, as well as supplying: the needy boys of
our State, with articles of Clothing, tec.„ that
for some cause or other, they cannot obtain
frog the U. 'S. Government. " •
I am sorry to say, hoWevei, that owing to;
to the. popularity of-.the Christian and Sani
tory Cotmnissions, is charities are greatly
limited. - The articles sent '..to those' bodies,
aro sunk into the general craw, and!deliver
ed without respect to loCalities, andihereby
many a needy, soldier hes to gct without
some necessary article, which, if,put in the
hands of the State Agent, wpuld reach more
directly our , own men.• Daring -, this -cold
weather. many. an applicant has been turned
away with an order upon the Cothmissions,
which are hardly ever filled; and I think it
r wolild be a real charity to send a box of. ar
ticles direct to'Col. Chamberlain, Na. 49.4
Cherry street, .Nashville,.. for the use of our.
own state soldiers. The supplies most need

Sometime ago the writer Of; thli, With het
school,' got up a box 'of - clothing and , delica
cies for the soldiers. What was hef.a.ston
lament at diseoverhig that;, out of tier fifty'
girls, from ten to sixteen years old, scitreely
half a dozen could- hem a handkerchief, or
run a seam ..presentably: - Young ladies of
"our - -first familiea.7 who had worked worst
ed, knitted, erotchect, tatted all manner of
pretty;fancy work,. were helpless when the
little Instillment,- on which. so much of the
comfort, even. the happiness of modetn life
depends, is put in their hands. Their deli- -
caw fingers bungle- like a - coal heaver* and
the, punctured skin drops blood in vain pen
ance on the uneven stitelies and gaping
seams. Marty of the - girls in our schools are
in very moderate circumstances, and , if not
called upon to support themselves by their .
'own exertions, at least must: help In their
father's house aud'sometime take care - of the
wardtobe of themselies and of. their- fami
lies. As I looked, at the time referred to,
on the 111-fitting and loosely .:made garments
worn by some of my pupils, ~I saw-that the ,
evirdid not begin in this generation.
The children' of American- parents are
nearly always well dressed and neatly, but , it
is too evident that poor overworked Xi has
done that neat darning or basted in the'pret
ty becoming ruble: But with those of 'for

"Me / can't sew." - . •
Now kis an excellent and neetasary thing
that. the girls. should. be wells grounded In

-Although Freat progresslas been made in:
teaching during he last ten or
.tw-clite years,
there,is still much to be done. It is to the
interest of every. teacher that"his profession"
should be exalted. To this end, thenjet eve
ry teacher strive to be the first in his profes
sion. To every teacher, I would say, ahn
high, and then press forward to the - mark: -
Resolve within yourself, that every duty
which devolves upon you, whether in the ,
schoolroom, or in the district Institute, shall
bb performed to the very best of your ability
Each day, as you enter your sthool-room,
make'up your mind that some fault, either in
the discipline of your school, or in your man
tier of teaching, shall be corrected. Engage
in your work, earnestly, heartily. Do not
be
,content with half-way measures. Do not
rest satisfied with merely a mechanical per
formance of the day`s dales, with' no'other
definite object in view, but that of getting
home, when the tithe comes for closing schoOli -
Strive so that, at the end of each-day,- your
scholars may, be wiser aid better, than they
wera.the day before. Lay _before theni right
views of life, and clear ideas
-of duty._ * Teach'
them to respect all authority ; to love obedil
ence and truth. Set before them high and
noble aims. To do this;it is, notnecessary to
tell them they may become great and famous.
that, they may be, future presidents, gotern
ors,:etc. • Teach them to do right, becatise it
is right ; -to love- truth for truth's sake ; so
that whatever, station they may fill, they may
perform their duties-with honor and -fidelity.
George Herbert says, - '
" Who sweeps'a room as for God's law,
-Makes that, and the - action fine." - -
Whenever occasion offers, and if oevasiona ,
do. not oiler, make. °cession, to descant 'Upon'
the value of patience, perseverance, and
punctuality at - all times, and hi all' circum
stances of life. -
Pay attention to the minor morals also. In- ,
culcate by precept and example the virtues of
neatness, order, courtesy, cheerfulness, for
bearance, and all - the little amenities of life,
which serve to make life agreeable; in short,
teach them to admire and practice "whaled
ever things are true, whatsoever things ,are
honest, whatsoever things are just, whatso
ever things are Pure, whatsciever things are
lovely, whatsoever things are - of good report:"
I do not say that all this is easy:- to be Acne.
It is not easy. The true teacher's olsce is no
sinecure. But " let patience haVe.lier perfect
work." It is •by ' precept upon
line upon lino; here a little,. andtberea lit
tle," that the teacher. can expect to Make
any impression upon the minds of thoeillte .
educates. '
Even if yon should see no Ina . med . late re.
sults, if your scholars should not, rise.up in
after years,and call ,you blissed, you will, at
least have the sweet consciousness, of - having'
none i•otir part. ' Tostr. •
