CHRISTMAS. last appears to have
been cherry Christmas" generally to
the people OF this country. In Clarksburg
there was universal breaking loose OF
all restraints by the young people. who
enjoyed themselves vastly in spite of the
restrictions of law and its dignttaries.
Woe unto the nervous man who travel.
ed the streets that day, for the powder
crackers were continually around and
about him; but far greater woe fell upon
those who happened 70 partake too freely
of the "ardent." For such there seemed
to be no mercy. and if pelting and ridicule
ever cured man of intemperance. there
were some conversions here on last Christ
mas.
The people of Buckhannon celebrated
the day with a dance in the evening,
which, we are informed, was a very nice
affair.
In Beverly, where we happened to be,
it was County Court day, and a ball was
given in the evening at Leopard's. Yet.
notwithstanding the three great induce
men.s to take holiday of Christmas,
Court day and ball. there appeared to
be but few people in town. Court adj
journed the first evening. Christmas day
passed off very creditabIy to the town for
sobriety. &C., and brought many fair
damsel and her gay Lothario. to enjoy the
pleasures of the evenings dance. The
ball was very well attended and properly
managed. The supper table really did
credit to the accomplished landiady. The
ladies were beautiful-nos. ofcourse, but
in fact. We seldom, if ever. saw col
lection ofas pretty women as was at Bey-
erly. They looked as fresh as the Wild
roses of their own fertile valleys.

The old and the New year.


at twelyeo'cloc on Sunday night last.
the year eighteen hundred and fifty -four
passed4away, and with il many glorious
throng ofhappy dreams. fond hopes. and
delightful anticipations. Many who were.
privileged to see its commencement, in
Che enjoyment of health and all that could
render life comfortable and happy. have
been called TO their long homes. Diseass
and death have been busy, and many, aycl
very many. have been robbed of precious
connections and endearing friends. near
and dear By natures ties. They. too.
have passed away. Deep. bitter anguish
has marked the brow Of many a way worn
traveller, and his heart caused to throb
with emotions strong and heavy, on ac-
count OF the many difficulties, disappoint-
ments, and besetments incident upon life'a
rugged pathway. But, aside from this,
if We have had seasons of grief, we hays
also had seasons of delight. Flo, though
left to mourn over hopes blighted and an
ticipations thwarted. yet our sky has not
been altogether Clouded. Our country,
too, has been preserved from the dire ca
lamities of grim -visaged war, aud We have
abundant reason for gratitude to the Great
Ruler of events for the blessings that We
have been privileged to enjoy,

WoMAN's LAUGH-A woman has no

sweet laugh. It's ike the sound Of flutes
on the water. 1t leaps from her heart in

hears it feels as if bathed in the cool, ex-
hilerating spring. Have you ever pur-

And We are pursuing that wondering voice

the midst of care, or sorrow, or irksome
business and then We turn away and
listen, and hear it ringing lhroug Oh the
room like silver bell, with power to
scare away the iIl-spirits of the mind
How much we owe to that sweet laugh |!
