The Professor at the Breakfast Table, with the
Story of Iris, by Oliver Wendell Holmes. This
conclusion to the " Autocrat," which it equals in
literary merit, is collected into a handsome

of the beet-written books in our language, and is
deeply imbued with strong human interest. A

Narratives, connectedly arranged in einem, of

hands of youth, while it also is a capital parlor

A small volume of good poetry, by a Southern

good, also.

The Nativity,
Br ORATBN.ASD.
To-morrow will be Christmas. Por many eon
uries the twenty-fifth day of December has been
, beerved as a festival throughout Christendom, in
ommemoration ot ottr Saviour's nativity. In the
atholio, and some branches of the Protestant
hurch, it is more . exelusively a religion, festival,
and is celebrated by a particular service set apart
or that day; although in the main, eren among
Burch-going people, Christmas has be'ome noted
or its social reunioes and general holiday-enjoy
-ants, rather than for any special religious tang
ly. There are reasons for this. In the first film,
here are no injunctions in the Bible whatever for
is obseirvance, and eye° the exact date of the
Saviour's birth seems to have been purposely hid.
ft is quite certain, also, that almost a ()eatery of
.e Christian era bad thirsted before this festival
was observed at all.
The name Christmas, or Christ-nsaie, derived
torn the appellative Christ having bean added to
he name ofJeaus to express that he was the Mee
-
lab, or 77te Anointed One. -The first obsess..
• nos of it was in A. D IQ, It was not ordered to
- held as a solemn feast, by the performaneesof
'trine service on the 25th of December, until
• early a century after our Lord's ascension, and
as then done by Pope Telespboran who wis rob.
eeqaently martyred. A century and three quer'
era later, Dkwilatian, the Roman Emperor, being
nformed that the Christians were assembled on
his day in great multitudes to .celebrate atist's
ativity, ordered the doors to be shut, and the
hurob to bo set on Ire, when viz hundred peradied

Still, even in these worldly social emcbsllishmants,
in which a mighty truth is enshrined, there would

for us to interchange tokens of friendship . and Or
feotioh with those in whom we are more keine
dittoly interested, and u custom has set apart a
epeeial season for this, there can be no hard in its
perpetuation. Let bear in mind, however, that
by remembering nob only in our sets of kindr.e ss

Scene were visibly manifest among as now, while
lie might not condemn indiscriminate giving, his
voice would assuredly be heard in behalf of "the
poor." It is this God-like element of his historic
character which most enshrines him in the hearts of
his disciples. As the morning star of the Baptist
"paled its inellectnal fires" before the rising Son
of Righteonsness, in all other temporal services
which we may render pale befcre cur disin
terested acts of kindness towards God's poor. That
which we lore in Jesus is not his exterior form,
of which we have no coconut, but the lineaments
and divine grates of his inner life; his humility,
gentleness, meekness, courage, benevolence, and
truth, as manifested by his words and works So
i far, then, as Christmas has any eigrdEcance as a
festival, it can only have it as its observance emu
lates the example of Him whose birth it is intended
'o commemorate ; and in proportion as this Is re
allied it becomes indeed the herald of that blissful
ate, when
" rictus lances into scythes shell bend,
And the broad falehion In • plonehshare end;
