another miracle, under highly-scented circum
stances, at Harrisville, a few days since.
—fomehow the young msn wfco turned over
a new leaf last New Year's day is getting ready
to turn over that very same leal next New
Year's day.
—Sewing Machine attachments and repairs
of all kinds, at E. Grieb's Jewelry store.
Munkittrick was the last man to lecture in
the old Court room and his lecture was so ex
ceedingly dry, that it may have had au effect on
the building' and brought about spontaneous
combustion.
—Every retail grocer is authorized to rtcom
mend and guarantee Day's Soap as doing all
that we claim for it. A handsome set of ex
pensive French chromos are distributed among
the buyers of it as an inducement to have them
try it.
—Gen. Purvisow sold the National Bank s
interest in the Story farm to Chas. Duffy for
$.575 and the Bradv township farm to same for
$505. The Bank's interest in the C'lymer prop
erty was sold to Wm. Campbell, Jr., trustee, for
SIOOO.
Go to H. Biehl & Co., for Phosphate,

—Sundav, Monday and Tuesday of next
week will", according to the a'.mauac, be the
shorten days of fhe year, and then the days
will begin to lengthen at the rate of about half
a minute a day.
—The plan adopted for ventilating the
Court room was the best of which we have
any knowledge, but the ventilators them-
Helve* should have been built of tin or sheet
iron, in which case thev would have worked
belter and—the Court House might not have
burned.
—Mr. D. I. Ku'nn, of Pittsburgh, the archi
tect who planned the alterations made in the
Court room, thinks the fire could hardly have
originated at the point where the stove-pipe
passed through the ventilator, because it was
<marded by a cast-iron collar. He is of the
Opinion that it was caused by a defect in the
flue either above or below that point. s°?*>
bnrning aud falling, could have worked its
gray through a defect below.
—Light running Domestic Sewing Machines
Jos Niggle & Bro. Agents, Duller, Pa. tf
The trial-list and minute book of the
<Quarter Sessions Court, reported burned last
week, turned up all somebody had car
them'out. The recognizance book was burned
so much as to be useless, but wonderful to re
late some papers in an Orphans' Court case,
that were left lying on one of the desks in the
Court room, pawed through the fire and were
not destroyed. The edges are burned bat the
printed aad written parte are yet good.
—The representatives of the insurance com
panies whose policies on the Coart House are
held by the county were in town yesterday ex
amining the ruins and consulting with the
<;ouhty Commissioners. One of the insurance
men thinks that the walls of the lower story
*rc as good as they ever were and says that
the companies may conclude to rebuild the
Court House. The walls of the upper story
have been condemned. Since the lire the
companies have kept a night and day watch
00 the ruins.
—Sead or leave your order for a Sewing Ma
chine, of any make, at E. Orieb's Jewelry store
—The bankers take the Pittsburgh Commer
cial Gazette for its financial news; the dealers
for its market reports; the minister takes it for
its religious news; the uolitician takes it for
i»* live political views, and its vigorous Repub
lican editorial opinions; the iadies want it for
its society and household news, and no country
home is complete without the CITI/.fcx to fur
nish the home news, and the Pittsburgh Week
ly Commeeeiul OazettS to give the news of the
world. Subscription price to the Pittsburgh
Weekly Commercial G<<iettc per year, $1.25.
—A word to those wishing to buv watches,
clocks, jewelry, spectacles aid silver-plated
ware, of which I have now ou hands a well
selected stock to choose from. I have nothing
in the sliaue ol a "Frite" to offer you as an in
ducement to buy of me. Bull will offer you
this inducement. 1 will sell my good* ss low
um I can possibly afford to, giving each customer
the benefit of the inducement instead of giving
it to the one lucky person only.that may hap
pen to draw the prize that other) have paid for.
Yours Respectfully,
If. L. CI.EKLAND,
Watchmaker and Jeweler.
—Court met Monday in the English Luther
an Church room. The County Commissioners
have reutedtbe whole building—better known
as the old Witberspoon Institute building—for
SI,OOO a year, the church to provide a janitor,
aiid the county tr have the use of the build
ing as long as it needs it. Prothonotary
Greer, Clerk I>od<ls and Register Christie have
already occupied the rooms n.-si them,
but some alterations will have to be made ia
the interior of the balance of the building
before the other officers go in. For the pres
ent the Commissioners cin be found in the
Brady building, Sheriff Donaghy at the jail,
and Treasurer Miller at the furniture store.
—Hon. Geo. R. Wendling will deliver the
second lecture of the course in the M. E.
Church, iu Butler, on Thursday eveuing, Dec.
27. Subject, "Satan." Weridling is well and
favorably known on the lecture platform, as
a iound thinker and powerful orator. lie ia
lilliug engagements this year in all the large
cities of the east, and is everywhere received
with profound attention and merited applause.
In his eloquent and forcible manner he never
fails to win the favor of his audieuce, aud as
he is to be in Butler during the holiday
week, let everyone embrace the opportunity
of hearing him. No reserved seats. Admis
sion 60 cenU. Course tickets for balance of
the season to lecture*) $1.23.
—The criticism* on our Fir* Department
that we have beard and read, are not only un
just, but have a tendency to discourage men
who have done well and who have worked
hard for nothing. We doubt if there are vol
unteer (ire or hose companies in thin State or
in the United .State*, who would lavedoue bet
ter than the Butler hone companies did at the
Court Iloase fire. It wat but a very few inin
u e», not more than ten, alter the alarm WHS
given until both the hoac companies were on
band*, had their hoae coupled to the ping*, a
line np the»tair» and into the attic, and a
stream of water playing on the ceiling. Bat
here they met with a *erious, perhaps fatal, ob
stacle—the old ceiling of the Court room had
been left stand, the new ceiling wait built un
derneath it, the ijre wan between the two ceil
ings. and the water that was poured in lodged
on the old ceiling. One of the fireman ran in
and knocked a hole iu the old ceiling, and look
ing in saw that everything between the two
ceiliugs was at a white beat. The fire-trap
had been built, it was doing its work well, and
there was no saving the building. The firemen
were driven out of the attic by the intense
heat, and by the dense smoke and steam. They
were blinded, and some of them were hurt get
ting out and getting down the stairs. The
origin of the tire is another matter. We bad
supposed that it originated at the point where
the stove-pipe of the Court room siove passed
through the ventilator on its way to the Due,
hut tl)is may not have been the case. The ijre was
first scon bursting out at the vory foot of the
ventilator, right at the floor of the Court room,
and at that time there was no fire at the point
mentioned, the plastering was off around the
stove-nipe, and had there been fire there, it
woulu have been seen. The Gre at the foot of
the veutilator was exiinguishud, and then the
janitor mounted the step-ladders, knocked a
hole in the ventilator above where the pipe
passed through, and looking in saw tint the
ventilator was burning some distance above
hirn, in the turn or arch. Of course tbe fire
soon broke through and spread betweeu the
two ceilings, and also ran up the ventilator,
through the upright wooden tube and into the
long horizontal wooden tube or trough which
ran lengtnwise, the length of the Court room,
in the attic, next to the ridge of the roof, anil
into which the ventilator on the roof opened.
• The fire was boxed in from the start, aud con
sidering tbe construction of these ventilators,
and the material of which they were? made,
cin'ie started and it was almost impossible V> ex
tinguish it. The janitor says that the fjre in
qtoye that warm morning was nothing compar
ed to it bat has been in it on cold winter (lays,
and js of the opinion that the fire did not origi
nate at the point where the stove-pi|ie passed
through the ventilator. The fire was kindled
or started ull that morning shortly after six
o'clock, an<l smoke was seen issuing from the
roof ventilator before seven, which shows that
the veutilator in the Court room was burning
from sn hour to an hour and a half before
being discovered. It may have originated at
the point where the pi|>e passed through, it
may havi originated through a defect iu the
flue above that point or it may have been
caused by somebody putting a lighted cigar
through the register at the foot of the venti
lator. Who knows?
—BUCKWHEAT flour at $3.50 per
hundred pouuda at Ueorge Walter's
mill, Butter, Pa. * .
—Rev. Water*moved into the late residence of
Dr. Bredln, Monday.
—Two block* of the town of Putxjls, Clearfield
eounty, burned last Sunday.
—For some time past the farmers of this
vicinity have been missing grain, chickens,
eggs, etc., from their barns, and batter from
their spring-houses, and although they made a
reasonable effort were unable to obtain any
clue as to who were the thieves, until a few
davs ago, when thev ascertained from George
Walter, the miller, that he had lately purchas
ed grain from Chas. P. Hewins and \\ illiam
Balmer, of this town. They also ascertained
that these men had hired a buck board in But
ler and had driven out to an old coal bank, a
short distance beyond the toll-gate, on the
Plank road, which they seem to have used for
a store house, and had brought the wheat from
that point to the mill. With th:s evidence in
their possession, Mr. John J*herman, of Summit
township, and others, made an information
against Hewins, Balmer and another young
man named Patterson, who seems to be con
nected with them, and they had a hearing be
fore Esq. Walker last Thursday, who held them
in S3OO each for court Hewins and Balmer
could not get bail and went to jail. Hewins
made a furious resistance but was overpowered.
Whoever stole the grain, took bags and all, and
the justice has some bags in his possession
awaiting identification. Any farmers who have
lost grain this fall should attend to the matter.
We understand that Wm. Miller and Esq. Mc-
Kee, of Butler township, are among those who
have been robbed. Balmer was also arrestc-d
and held on charges of adultery and bastardy
preferred by a girl named Fleming.

Christmas.
"When Irving was reuroaehed for describing
an Knglish Christmas which he had never seen,
he replied that, although everything that he
had described might not be S3eu at any single
house, yet all of it could be seen somewhere in
England 'at Christmas. He might have an*
wered, al«o, that the spirit of what he had de
scribed was visible everywhere in Christendom
on Christmas day.
"Some say thai ever'gainst that season comes
Wherein our Saviour's birth i- <• -lebruted.
The bird of dawning singeth all night long :
And then, tliev sav. no spirit dares stir alir .i.l
Tin-nights are wholesome, then no planetsstrikc
.So fairy takes, nor witch liath power to ebarin.
So hallow'd and so gracio.-s is the time."
This is the Christmas sentiment of to-day, a~
it was of Shakespeare's tiinc. It is the most
human and kindly of seasons, as fully pene
trated an 1 irradiated with the feeling of human
brotherhood, which is the essential spirit of
Christianity, as the month of June with sun
shine and the balmy breath of roses. Santa
Claus coming down the chimney loaded with
gifts is but the symbol of the gracious influence
which at this t'.in.* descends from heaven into
every heart. The day dawns with a benedic
tion; it passes in holiday happiness; and end -
in soft and i»cns:ve regret. It could not be the
most beautiful of festival if it were doe'rinal ;
or dogmatic, or theological, or local. It is a
universal holiday because it is the jubilee ot a
universal sentiment, moulded only by a new
epoch, and subtly adapted t-> newer forms of
the old faith.
When the neophyte asked his confessor what
was the central truth of Christianity, the old
man auswered, "Charity." 'fheu he explained
that charity meant love, aud that love meant
the spirit of universal fraternity. The alms
giving which is the technical interpretation ot
the word is but a symbol or that giving of tilt
heatt aud soul and life to he'p others of w iiieli
the supreme sacrifice of Cliri-.t is the <;cce;<tCi
type. The dav that commemorates llis birth is
the festival cf'humanity, a* the inspiring senti
ment of actual life, Ihe lovely legtud* ot the
day, the stories, aDd the songs and the half
fairy-lore that gathers around it, the ancient
traditions of du''kv woods and mvstic rites ; tiie
magnificence or simplicity ot Christian obser
vance, from the Pope in his triple tiara, borne
upon his portative tinonc in gorgeous -late to
celebrate pontifical high maw at the great ini.ir
of St. Peter's, to George Herbert humbly kneel
ing in his rustic church at Bemcrton, or to the
bare service in some missionary chajiel upon
the American frontier; the lighting ot ( hri.st
mas trees and hanging up Chri-tmas sU-ck ings,
the profuse giving, the happy family meetings,
the dinner, the game, the dance—they arc all
the natural signs and symbols, the flower and
fruit, of Christmas. For Christmas is the day
of days which declares the universal linman
tons^ioasnes. that peace on earth comes only
from good-will to uias."
Santa Clausin Butler.
PART I.
'Teas 5 sold, wild night, and the ground was
white'
With the frost-flowers of the snow ;
And the stars looked down on a noisy town
\V Ith iLs streets and halls aglow.
The store room of E. Grieb was in a particu
larly brilliant glow, with its three large double
cfvscs filled with new silverware, and other
cases filled with aititles in and silver, and
the room was filled with people buying of their
almost endless variety of scarf-pins, ear-lings,
watches, chains, charms, &c., and they all went
out looking cheerful and happy,
It was Christmas-time, and the merry chime
Of the evening bells rang clear
On the frosly aii, it t',' declare
r fwas the happiest time • >» fiiu yfear
Always a happy time for the recipients of
the presents bought at Kilter i Baisfor/.t great
dry goods and trimmings store, l'lie he!vc ;of
thrir immense store-room are filled from end to
end, with goods for Chrintmas presents, and
their show-windows presented a variety and
quality of goods un-excelled in the market.
For Jolly Saint Nick lias a chvet lii.i>
Of filling his sleigh with toys.
And swiff as a dream, with a reindeer-team,
He visits the girls and boys.
This year, as usual, he filled his sleigh at J.
F. T. htehle's "Santa Claus Headquarters,"'
where he found the largest stock of toys, dolls,
hobby-horsej, v/aguns, sleds, tool-b i\ -s, safes,
drums, violins, mu»:u-boxi,.<, (i'jii-litbies,
arks, cars and a thousand other things ever
brought to Butler. With each succeeding
Christmas, the funny looking old gentleman,
when in Butler, registers at Stchle's.
Now I've heatd it said that he has a dread
<>f freezing his turn-lip iio-e ;
Well, it may l.e ,o, for fierce winds blow
Aud it's cold where he often gi/i-,.
But it is never neither cold nor dark in a
house fitted up from 11. Biehl & Cj.'s stove
and lamp emporium. For Christmas presents
Henry h-ul brought on a lineof bea>|ti'ful hang
ing and student lamps, also all kinds of skates,
aud the toy counter at the rear end id' his store
was still a great attraction for the children.
But I think It a ruse, aud a poor excuse
For wanting to smoke his pipe ;
As every one know s that his pug nose glo-.ys,
Bed as a cherry lull ripe !
But that pug nose, is always covered, par
tially at le.jit, with a great fur cap, su m as
can be had at riia*. B. Grieh's men and boys'
furnishing goods store. For the holiday trade
Charley had secured a large stock of bciu;ifui i
silk scarfs af all shades, iiaud-ewiiroid r. d .-ijs
penders, fur gloves and capa, silk handker
chiefs aud scarfs, riik uinorellas and many
other lieautiful articles, and the young ladies
to please their best young men always send
Santa to sac him.
Hut he'< getting old. and we will int sco'd.
If we don't quite fancy his ways,
For we must dcp'Mid on him as a friend,
Or what would we do holiday .
Ilis loss would undoubtedly be a public ca
lamity, «ad iothat eise few steps would go
further too•rwre (lie public than a step into
the new j-welery store of J. B. Grieb. Johnny
is noted >r hista'-te in selecting goods, a fact
of which .Santa Clau i is fully aware, and he
always hunts Johnny up aud eunsults him on
these matter*.

Thanks.
We, the undersigned, in behalf of the
Board of Managers of St. Paul's Or
i phan Home, de-rim to tender to the
good people of Butler and vicinity, oar
most heart-felt thanks for their hind
remembrance of tis, and of the orphan
rinse, on the evening of the 11th. The
provisions furnished for the supper
were very it: urh mote and far richer
.a we could possibly have anticipat
; i ii: the rnuiic and recitations were of a
•rh order; and the families and friends
i •. no cheered us with their presence, and
brought so much real sunshine into our
Home will, we are quite pure, always
in- remember 1 pleasantly by our en
tire household.
If there is toy room atnli for distinc
tion among those who were especially
interested, wo would make favorable
mention of those who conceived the
idea of the entertainment: the subse
quent "committee of thirty," who
planned it; the kind ladies who solicit
ed the provisions for the supper; and
the ycung ladies who sold the tickets.
, it i ; also proper that special reference
| should be made of those who so kindly
furnished the entertainment after the
, supper—the pianists Misses Neyman
and Fiedler, and Mrs. Shaw; the violin-
I ist, Mr. Aaron Reiber; the vocalists,
i Mrs. It. I'. Scott, of Butler, and Mrs.
! C. II Humbert, of Pittsburgh; the elo
j cutionist, Miss Edith Mechliog, and
the Germania Cornet Band We also
heartily thank the proprietors ot the
printing offices of the CITIZEN, Eatjle
and llerald, who kindly did what
printing was required without charge.
The net receipts were $102.50, besides
."iO cans of fruit, 20 cakes and a large
quantity of bread which remained over.
After such an entertainment, given
without solicitation on our part, but
nevertheless received with hearts lull
of inexpressible gratitude, we can n:U
but tender our friends, especially those
of Butler and vicinity, our house and
its grounds for any proper use they
may hereafter desire to make of them.
We also invite them to cali, alone or
their friends, assuring them that
all such visits will be highly appreciated.
