THE FIRST SPRING HOLIDAY.
Fled now the sullen murmurs of the north,
The splendid raiment of the spring peeps forth ;
Her universal green and the clear sky
Delight still more and more the gazing eye.
BLOOMFIELD.

The vernal equinox, which ushers in the "first spring holiday," is
welcomed by all with feelings of lively emotion ; and it is not a little
interesting to notice the pleasing changes and various preparations
which attend on this season of universal festivity.
In the Gregorian, as in the Julian year, Easter is regarded as a
favourite festival ; and the approach of this holiday diffuses life and
activity in every direction.
We cannot proceed through the public streets without noticing
the changes attendant, nor can the most apathetical observer refrain
from a participation in the impulses to which the " first spring holi-
day" gives rise. While private residences present a re-decorated
appearance, in garden and frontage ; and display in their windows
hyacinths; crocuses, and other spring flowers, the more public tho-
roughfares display marks of renovation and re-embellishment.
The trading establishments appear under " brighter colours," and,
externally and internally, show pleasing signs of preparation. The
season of Easter is a "commonwealth" of festivity—to share in
which the Senate itself suspends for a term its important delibera-
tions. It is particularly interesting, at this season of the year, to
notice the various preparations for public recreation and amusement.
Hoardings are placarded with immense posters, calling attention, in
colossal characters, to excursion trains, steam•vessels, concerts,
theatres, fairs, and numerous other sources of enjoyment, and wher-
ever we look we can discover indications of the " spring holiday."
Among the many customs appertaining to this season, is that of the
adoption of new attire. Winter clothing Is now cast off, and articles
more befitting the change of weather are assumed.

HYAM and Co. feel confident that their present spring stock will,
on examination, elicit a large share of public approbation. A strict
conformity to the prevalent taste in fashion—a development of
imprlvements entirely original—a solidity •and beauty of material
—an excellence of workmanship which challenges the most minute
inspection, and a general superiority, coupled with a positive reduc-
tion in price, are the recommendations which ,Hyara and Co. have
to urge on the attention of the public.
There is no mistaking the system of Hyam and Co., who, while
saying what they do, take especial care to do what they say. Hyam
and Co. are no friends to a " sliding scale " system in prices ; nor
are the proprietors in the practice of advertising articles "from "
one price to another.
" One fixed price for one description of garment," is the rule upon
which they go, and from which they have never once diverged
during the long period of their trading career.
Hyam and Co., before concluding this notice of their Spring pre-
parations, would make pointed allusions to their article in juvenile
attire.
The brief vacation which occurs at Easter will afford an opportu-
nity to parents and others having the charge of youth, to judge of
the neatness, beauty, durability, and cheapness of this description of
Hyam and Co.'s stock ; and the proprietors trust that their offers in
this (as well as in every other branch of their business) will be met
with a ready acceptance.
