The pastor of a Presbyterian church in Pittsburgh has considered it neces j sarv to remonstrate with some of the ! members of the church on account of i their habit of beer drinking. Instead jof receiving the rebuke meekly and promising to mend their ways, the beer drinkers, it is said, have resolved to resist all attempts to discipline them, on the ground that it is not wrong to drink beer. If any attempt is made to settle that question, the result will ex cite great interest. Probable opinions will differ as widely as they sometimes appear to do on the question whether beer is intoxicating. Doll Buggies and Cradles, Doll Houses and Doll-babies at Heineman's. There seems to be a good prospect that Congress will at the present ses sion reduce the letter posiage. The recommendation of the President to that effect has been promptly followed by the offering of a reso lution in the House authorizing the Appropriations Committee "to add a clause to the bill making provision for the postal service; which shall reduce the rate of postage on first-class mail matter from three to two cents for each half ounce or fraction thereof.'' This plan was adopted as the certain way to reach action on the matter, the I'ost Office Committee and Congress men generally are in favor of the re duction, and the resolution was pass ed almost without dissent. One thing is sure. There is no more popular thing the Republicans could possibly do than to mark the present as "the two-cent postage session" of the For ty-Seventh Congress —Fresh oysters received twice a week at the City Bakery, Vogely House block. The King of Corea is not the first ruler who has had plenty of reason to make confession of evil doing, but he m the first to do it in this remarka ble wise.

My administra tion has been a failure, and abuses have arisen in the Government through my fault. I repent, but it is too late. Since I have occupied the throne I have made many improvements in roads and other things, and both rich and poor have had to suffer under the burden. This is my sin. Bribery has been carried on publicly. The complaints of the victimized have net reached my ear. This is my sin.

The ever blessed and glorious festival of tlie I Xativity is again at hand. It the monument of an event in history which has wrought a better and greater work than any other. Chris tianitv must be confessed by all fair-minded thinkers, whatever opinions may be held as to the essential divinity of the niau of Xaaareth, to be the one potent force which has transform ed the woild and set ia motion the energies of u true and noble civilization, such as mankind never knew before. What human society wa-. in even the most enlightened nations of the earth, at the birth of Je«us is impressively por t rayed bv Paul in the pictorial first chapter of the" epistle to the Romans. And what our race was then it is to-day wherever the maxims of the Gospel have not become the ideal law of individual, domestic and collective life. Here in is the cardinal testimony of the celestial ori gin of the religion of the Galilean, in that it has lifted humanity to a higher plane, leading , its disciples in every aire rejoc'ngly along the J upward way, and filling all lands with bene- j factors. To-day we stand in the full light of the conquest of the Cross. The emblem of a cruel anil disgraceful death has become the symbol of man's best and highest hopes. The Chinch does not hold all there is of Christianity in the world. There is a magnificent lay religion, which goes everywhere in ceaseless battle with the evil and in a tireless ministry of benefits. The true Christain spirit expresses itself in kindly deeds. Our religion is comprehended in Love—to God and man. The Christmas day renews the tokens of love in the family, the ever-widening domestic and social circle : as the Magi came with gifts to the Child Jesus, so do we present gifts to the children in the name of Him who speaks of the least of them as being* in Him : and the offerings of our affection finding their spring and their end in the Child who unto us ■ is born. Many of our store keepers have as usual, made special preparations tor the approaching visits of Santa Claus to their stores, and for his guidance in making his purchases we make the following remarks : Some philologists have held that 'Gaelic' was at one time the only language current in Britain. A itudy of the following passage throws a curious light upon the conditions of the people during that primitive age, and shows the lamentable straits to which they were put: "Wh ensol o' mon wa sar ray 'Dinal lhi sglo ryheh ad n' tapai rofsto cki ngstoh isna mea ndasf orsli irlsh ekn ewn ctwh atth cy we re." The poorest man in the community is better off to-day in the above respicts than were the ancient sages of a defunct dispensation.

A Russian priest who has travelled around the world, being asked by a New York interviewer what struck him most during his trip, made the follow ing reply: "The lead that English speaking people have taken everywhere. Eng- lish has become the international lan guage. With my limited knowledge of English during my trip I have been better oir than my occasional German and French Friends. English has a glorious future. It is bound to be come the universal language of science, trade and industrv. There have been three great epochs in which all the educated men talked Greek, Latin aud French respectively. Now we are en tering the English epoch. The Creek world was too limilted in both area and age. The Latin world was larger than the Greek, but its field was to narrow. The French epoch was di plomatic. Now the English, or rather Aoglo-A merican epoch will embrace the whole world. The English speak ing nations lead the world in higher politics and in induwtry aud trade, and they are unsurpassed by any nation in scientific, religious or philosophical thought. Our German friends object to English on the ground that it is in their opinion not an original language, being rather a mixture of German and Latin. In my opinion this is rather an advantage. —At Charles It. Grieb's can bo found a large variety of Silk Handker chiefs, embracing all the new shades and patterns.

We notice that the Pennsylvania Company, I'., C. & St. L It. It. Pennsylvania Central and branches which compose the great through lines to all parts of the country have made arrangements l»y which excursions can be taken in any direction at very low rates. The fare is so low that it is within the reach of every one, giving them an opportunity to visit the city, places of interest, or a Holiday visit to friends. We may say that this is a real Christmas greeting from these roads, and shows that they are up to the times in doing their part that the public can have every chance to make the holidays those ol pleasure. Tickets are ' sold from all the stations of the differ ent divisions from December '22 to January 1, 188:5, and good for return trips until January 18815 the rtttes being exceedingly low that all may en joy the festivities of the season, either in the country among friends or seeing the many sites in the cities. It makes no difference in what direction you may wish to go, these roads have the facilities to send you to any point by innumerable branches that are under the control of the roads. In addition to the holidays excur sions these popular companies have one to Jacksonville, Florida. One of the most pleasant winter excursions that can be taken.
