CHRISTMAS.

The outward Observance Of Christmas Day was far
more general this year than ever before in this City
and neighboihood.
The day was rather disagreeabe, being foggy in
the morning. and particularly wet and muddy under
foot all day. Therefore there were not half so many
citizens abroad as usual, though considerable pro-.
portion ventured to the churches where services
were held, and to the various places where charity
dispensed her bounty.
Within doors there was an abundance Of true hap
pisess. Santa Claus, despite the hard times, had
kindly emembered his little friends, and thousands
of delighted parents drank their fill Of the purest
happiness from the sparkling eyes and merry laugh
ter Of those who know enough to be happy with a
trife, and too little to be miserable at ell We hope
that the innocent diversions of the good Santa Claus
may continue to flourish and increase long there
are nnoceKt children to crafty and fond parents and
friends to share their joys.
Probably half the stores, shops and places Of bust
ness in the City were not opened at all yesterday;
while of the other half the greater portion were closed
before IAN. A few retailers Of fancy goods and
toys some Of the dining and all Of the rum
holes were open all day but the walking 20 bad
that either there was lees drunkenness than usual or
else it was kept within doors.
As usual, there we're number Of Military parades,
bat even here there was falling of-not half a. any
companies being out as last season.
In the evening there was great rush to the
Theatres and other places of entertainment and all
were crowded 70 their fulles. capacity by audiences
composed in great part Of those who seldom treat
Themselves to such entertainment at any other season
Of the year.
Without designing to make regular report Of the
days doiDgs, we append such facts as happened to
fall under the notice of reporters in their journey
inge 70 and fro through the town.

CHRISTMAS AMONG THE POOR.

The inmates Of the two missions at the Five Points
had merry Christmas yesterday. The chspei at the
Old Brewery Mi,sion.hoase was full Of children and
visitors through the afternoon, some Of whom were
made happy BY giving and others by receiving Christ
mas gifts. Mr.. Lsrl,n, the worthy pastor, seemed
particularly happy. Mr.. MLesn, too, wa in bis
element. The kdes who maintain this mission
cause great dec. Of happiness upon these holiday
oecasions.
At the Five Points House Of Industry, Mr. Pease
had bis hands full al this morning in getting ready,
and all the afternoon in attending to constant crowd
Of visitors, The ft Of whom retired to give place to
othep; Otherwise the rooms could not have held q

THE HOME FOR THE FRIENDLEss.

There are few public Institutions Of charity In
which the observances of Christmas were SO full Of
interes. as those which We witnessed at the Home
of the Friepdless, in East Thrtiethst Between
~ and p. NJ. yesterday, one hundred children
partook of an excellent dinner at the Home, while
their mothers, through an invitation from the ladies
Of the Society, dined at the rooms Of the School, In
Thirty fourth.st The subsequent exercises were Of
an extremely interesting character There was 9 Va
riety Of singing and speaking by the childreni and
on the presentation of hundred hoods and talmM
by the lady patrons, little girl named Maggie Burns
returned thanks in the following pretty lines:
Patrons dear. and Teachers kind,
10 our ehldish hearts enshrined,
To your hind and tender care
Thanks we awe for what wens
Thanks we awe for what we know,
More than Just year sso,
When school in the street.
Ard we had not food TO eat
Clothing scant. and feet ell bare,
And for none seemed 70 care
hor, we read and write, and ssw-
May Heavenly Friend above
Bless you ever with his love.
After this the children adjourned TO another spar-
ment, where their bonefactors hsd prepared two
Christmas trees, loaded with presents, from whicg
they selected whatever toy happened TO please thef
childish fances. Never did the ceremonies Of me
Christmas Tree seem more appropriate than upon ing
OCCASION hose hsppy children with the lght 81 con-
tentmen and intelligence beaming from their features
the numerous ladies' with their families, all eager
10 promote the happiness OF their little proseses-sa
these combined to form picture, on that cheerful
Christmas Day, the influence OF which will continus
be beneficial in the recollection Of every person
who was present.
The evening exercises, by the inmates Of the HOHe
were similar in their character to those of the afternoon
CHRISTIAN HOME FOR SERVANTS.
Yesterday afternoon an excellent dinner was fai'

servants, who are at present out Of employmeo1
The dinner was given by the supporters OF tho IN

smi,bson having in bis will, explicitly stated
his intention, could not do otherwise than leave
to the practical sen,e Of the American people the
manner of carrying out his generous wish. He
left 1t TO the judgment of the nation how to apply
the bequest in the most profitable manner, with
respect to the necessities Of our social state-to
the spirit Of the sge-and to the life of our
republican institutions. But how strangely have
lis wishes been misrepresented The affair fell
urder the management Of responsibilities and
there it remains. The same spirit which pre-
sliced over the formation of the Congressional
Library, and flied it with illustrated editions Of
dirty romsnce writers, such as Pigault, lie Brun,
and Paul De Kock, extends its uncongs NAL in.
fuence to the Smithsonian Institute, and holds
under its protection the coterie presiding there.
Years ago, decision Of Congress assigned
considerable annual sum from the income Of the
Smithsonian Fund, to be devoted TO the forma-
ten Of library. But this provision has been
eu1ed, if not violated; and it is saddening to see
what is accomplished, a. compared with what
might have been realized The two libraries,
that of Congress and the Smithsonian, with
the uie of such large sums, and arranged % a. to
complete each other, might have become q
scientific treasure to the country generally. The
Congressional ought to have been formed with
the view of aiding and guiding statesmen in their
researches; and, for that reason. works on His
tory, Geography Statistics, Political Economy.

Here he was told that he must leave the country
by the next steamer, and that he would not be
allowed in the meanwhile TO 20 anywhere out of
Calais, being in fact placed under surveillance.
