A Christmas Tale.

While the last century was flourish.
ing, there dwelt, in what is now a
famous city, not a mile from Boston,
an opulent widow lady, who once
afforded queer illustration of that
cold compound of incompatibles, call
ed "human nature"
1t was Christmas Eve of one of
those old-fashioned winters which
were SO bitter cold. The old lady put
on an extra shawl and as she Rugged
her shivering frame, she said to her
faithful negro servant:
Its terrible cold night, Scip.
] am afraid my poor neighbor, widow
Green, must be suffering. Take the
wheelbarrow, Scip. Fill it full of
wood. Pile on good load and tell
the poor woman to keep herself warm
and comfortable. But before you go,
Scip, put some more wood on the fire,
and make me a nice mug of flip"
These last orders were duly obeyed
and the old lady was Thoroughly warm
ed, both inside and out. And now the
trusty Scipio was about to depart on
his errand of mercy, when his consid-
crate mistress interposed again.
"Scip, Scip. You need not go now.
THE weather has moderated"

The GREAT EASTERN The misfor-
tunes attending the building of the
Great Eastern are not yet ended. 1t
now appears that the contractor, Mr..
Scott Russell, has not fulfilled his con-
tract, and the vessel is unfit for sea
service. The official commission APP
pointed to investigate the matter,
have at last submitted a most dis
couraging report, in which they say
that the hull is unfinished that the
decks are not tight /; that great deal
of inferior material and workmanship
has been used in them that, with the
exception of a few cabins, the accom-.
modations are not equal to the re-
quiremcnts of first class steamers,
such as Cunard's line that the Off
GERS and crew are not properly accom-
modated, and that a considerable
amount of the work, which is abso-
lutely necessary before the ship can
be trusted on voyage across the
Atlantic, has been neglected.

A FORTUNATE SHoPwoMAN.-There Is
an Italian proverb which says that
handsome women are born married.
The meaning of this is not, what has
been supposed, that marriages are
made in heaven, but, that such is the
power of beauty over the human heart,
that those who are possessed OF it can
marry when and whom they please.
A veriiication of the axiom took place
last week at Brompton. A millionaire
purchased small pocket-book at a
stationer's, in that fashionable locall-
ty. He was served by young lady
of great personal attractions. So
smitten was Mr.. Scott with her beau
ty, that, understanding she was single,
he then and there made his fair en-
| SLAYER an offer of his hand and heart.
The sequel is to be found in the mar
riage announced as having taken place
at church of some Puscyite notoric'
ty in the neighborhood, last Wednes'
day, when the pretty shopwoman
stepped into a carriage and 100000
a year, after courtship of only one
day.

" Merry Christmas.

Christmas-tree for the children of the
various Sunday Schools at Cheney &
Brackett's Hall, under the direction of
Rev. j. Ii. Windsor. The festival
passed off pleasantly, affording I'M
usual enjoyment for old and young.
After the audience had assembled the

III. Closing hymn .Come children and
join in our festival song
1t is long since we have attended
at any place where we have expert
enced more real enjoyment. The hap
py faces of the children, the music of
their sweet young voices, and the
pleased look of parents and friends,
all conspired to render it pleasant.
We love to hear children sing at oil
times, and especially when the music
is sacred. The chanting of the
twcnty-third Psalm was excellently
performed.
At the distribution of the presents
all the children received something,
even those for wh)m their parents
had prepared nothing, while some OF
the older persons received gifts, the
incongruity of which caused much
mcrriment. After the distribution OF
the presents the children returned to
their seats and sung the closing hymn
when they were dismissed. In pass
ing out of the hall each child received
some candy and cake. ...-..
Much credit is due to Mr.. Windsor
and those who assisted him in prepar-
ing this pleasant festival for the
children. COM

Close Of the Year,

With this number we complete the
third volume of the "Intelligencer."
The past year has been, financially, a
hard one for newspaper publishers,
and very many in this State have
been compelled to suspend or discon-
tinue their publications entirely. By
dint of hard work and strict econo-
my we have succeeded in carrying
through the Intelligcncer without an
omission of single number. More
than this, we have not even once an
noyed our pratrons by publishing
duns," feeling DESTROYS to give them
an opportunity togather in their crops,
and, by the exchange or sale of their
produce, acquire the means to settle
as small bills even as those of the
printers usually are. We now find,
after thus SO patiently waiting, that
there are many accounts on our books
for advertising, job printing, &C., un'
paid. These should all be settled al
this time. We need the pay and
must have it.
1t is not congenial to our feelings
to dog around after those who owe
us, to make collections, and those who
now show a determination to with
hold from us the money which We
have so faithfully earned and so pa
tiently waited for, are hereby notified
that they can obtain credit at thi.
Office no longer. The patronage o
that man who is not disposed to bt
punctual in bis payments is not sought
by us. We desire to be prompt il
our own payments, and we wish others
to be so in their deal with us.
We have adopted the system of ad
vance payment for subscriptions tc
the Intelligencer, and shall discon-
tinue sending the paper to those whose
term of subscription has expired, un
less the same be renewed. We shall
rejoice to have all our subscribers
continue with us another year, and
also do what they can TO increase our
circulation. Remember that, for the
names of four new subscribers and
eight dollars, we will furnish a fifth
copy gratis.

We have received copy of the Re-
port of Col. T. Ii. Benton, Secretary
of the Iowa State Board of Education.
The Report presents a concise and
forciblc view Of the operations of the
present Educational system of the
State, the state of our public schools,
the school fund, and the educational
interest generally. Mr. Benton is dis
inclined to urge radical changes in the
School Law. He thinks that the nam
objections to it arise from misrepre-
sentation of the facts. lie demon
strates that the present system is
more economical than the old one, and
that its results have been of the most
satisfactory character where it has
been efficiently enforced. He has Wis
tied various portions of the State,
seen large number of County Super
intcndcnts, and consulted with all
classes of men, in order to inform him.
self of the sentiment of the State, and
contribute to the efficiency of the
School System. But two objections
of much moment appear to be urged
against the School Law, the salaries
paid to County Superintendent, and
the want of power in sub-districts to
tax themselves and build their own
school houses, when the townships re-
fuse to build them. We doubt not
the Board Of Education, now in scs-
sion, will do what they can to remedy
these evils.

The accusation against DR.. j. C.
Aver, of Lowell, for stabbing II. S.
Fay. Jr, the Treasurer of the Middle.
sex Mills, has been withdrawn because
the prosecutor found that no complaint
against him could be sustained. The
fact is that DR.. Aver merely defended
himself as best he might, with pen
knife he happened to have in his hand,
against cowardly assault made ON
him from behind, with the premedita-
ted intention to dishouor and punish
him for the exposure he has made and
is making of the wrongs practiced
by the officers upon our manufacture
ing corporations. This community
not only upholds the Doctors success
full defence of his person. but it hearth
ly approves his course in publicly de-
nouncing the Tite-Barnacle Family
management-the abuses of our pub
lie property for private ends. DR..
Ayers medicines, however valuable,
are not all for which the masses of
our people hold him in regard.-Bos-
