Christmas Day.

Strictly speaking, and for all religious observan-
ces, tomorrow will be Christmas Day literally,
suppose, Chrst-mass," or the mass of Christ, the
celebration being commemorative Of the ratvjty,
and the English name of it. at least originating in
times when the Roman Catholic Church embraced
all Western Christianity. However that may be,
the festival, in worldly point of view will be kept
on Monday, by many whose ideas of religious duty
do not comport with the observance of any religious
holidays, except the day in seven known as Sab
bath or Sunday. In fact, generally speaking, Chris
mas is more looked forward to q season OF good
fellowship and good cheer-the interchange OF pres
ents and tokens of aections-the renewal of friend
ships, and the making up of quarrels than with any
direct reference to is original meaning. And after
ALL perhaps this may be very good practical illus
tration of the precepts of whose mission was to
bring peace on earth and good will 10 men, If tes-
tIvty sometimes runs into excess,-and we very
little OF that Aere, generally speaking git is deeply to
be deplored in the individual Of It's
but forms no valiJ argument against the observance
of such day. The exuberance Of boyish feelings
and fun, will sometimes become annoying in the
way of noise and fireworks but boys will be boys.
We all have been-cxcept the ladies who al
ways girls until matrimony destroys the fair al
fusion. Some head aches and regrets may survive
as souvenirs Of the day but upon the whole it Will,
we hope, lie day Of Happiness in the present, and
pieasanS rememb2ances in the future. Such, we
trust it will be to all our readers and = the of
mankind 1t is in the full hope and conf .cnce of
