We met our friend Moses Banks in the city on Monday morning, and return our thanks to him for a cordial invitation to be present at the festal occasion to take place at his residence on Christmas eve.

It is a happy custom that induces perenta to celebrate the birth of our Savior, with their children on this day. It will cause the latter to treas ure up and cherish to life's remotest day the memory of these anniversa ries Who has no't among his sweet est recollections, the brightest "pict ures that hang on memory's wall," a Christmas Anniversary? We nev er get so old but that the heart will swell as we recall the kindly voice of a mother, and her busy cares for our pleasures as she wrought the delica cies, heaped the plates, filled the stockings and ministered to our amusements. It is a fitting custom, dlso, because there is no other day upon which hu manity may so well rejoice, as upon the anniversary of our Savior's birth. But our readers will excuse us from the task of painting a picture cf this holiday. It is easier to enjoy it than to tell how we enjoy it. It would be ifseless to go back over "the old, old story" at this place, for by so doing we would doubtless anticipate, if not embarrass the efforts of our pulpit or ators. But in conclusion we inuat record the fact that Christmas Is coming. In a few houis the chimes from many a dome and spire will proclaim the re turn of the holy night when the shep herds on the eastern hills saw the star that stood over Bethlehem and angels sang, "On earth peace, and good will towards men."

I wish to plead that I made the ap pointments in good faith, thinking that my health would surely permit me to fulfill them. But the return of my strength, after the fever was over, was so unexpectedly slow, that I was not able to give a public entertain ment until the loth of December, which was my first effort since the 9th day of October.

Literary exercises added to the festivities of Christmas Eve. Another Christmas draweth nigh. How ffie waves of time are driftiiig us to the other shore. A merry Christmas to you all, readers of the Advep.tiseb. Mrs. Harding would express her gratitude to the many kind-hearted neighbors, who have showed their Soap five cents per bar at Wibley's.

Mr. Wheel er gave him a call a few evenings ago to get a familiar acquaintance with him and family, and remembered him in a substantial way such as flour, meat, batter and such like things, which are good to ent in a cold day. Go thou and do likewise. Men and women were running to and fro. The snow was fast. Patients were wondering why the doctor did not come to see them. The children gathered at the school house; but ths teacher. Mr. George McGrew, came not, and people began to wonder why. Then began togues?. for "coming events cast their shad- l.A.. .

It is to be hoped that in his pride and joy he will not forget that the rest of mankind are of some little consequence as well a3 this wee little son of bis, and that he will come down from the heights of his pride, and asrain resume his school, and the world mave on as before this event. Mr. McGrew is one of those fortun ate men, who has a sweet-tempered, pretty, amiabie wife, and now this son which is given them, has filled his cup of happiness to overflowing. ;TES INTER-OCESff.
