LEGAL HOIIDAYs-As Christmas and New-Year's
Day fall upon Sunday the old question of when they
shall be celebrated and how business will be affected
should they be observed Monday, has again arisen
BY the laws Of THE State, Christmas, NewYear's and
Independence Day are holidays. Any day appointed
by the Governor OF PRECEDENT for prayer thanksgv
ing is also holiday. These feast fast days. far
az the transaction # business is concerned the
as Sunday. Where holiday falls on Sunday and is
celebrated on Monday, no provision is made in this
State. bill for legsfzipg such days as holidays was
introduced into the Legislature last Winter, but failed
10 become law. The vexel question il therefore
open and liable TO give rse to difficulty or perplex
i,y this Christmas and New-Year's. If the true and
legal holiday was Monday there is question thai
the drait due that day woald be payable on
SATURDAY. A. the stands however, there can be
little ooub that banks must keep open Monday, TO
receive payment OF notes and GDsct necessary bust
ness and must employ notary to protest unpaid paper
on thai day. Otherwise indoFsers might be held
Undoubtedly merchants and Others will pay their Mon
day notes on Saturday as far possible in order to
have the Monday a holiday, exempt from business
cares. A question, however, arises in regard to
sight drafts sent to bank for collection These can
not be anticipated. The bank or notary may call on
Monday and finding the Office closed, protest the draft.
Or the bark may hold It's correspondence unopened
until Tuesday and then the question of the exercise Of
/" due diligence may be raised. legal enactment
would easily settle the whole controversy and give the
public what the present statute intended il should have
an unbroken holiday.

Ga-cuc Near the eastern terminus OF the road II
raverses morass. This was treated AS such places
usually are By railway epglneers-earth was cirted
from distance and laid the track, UNTIL to all APP
pearanees, It was hard and solid. To the surprise OF
The engineers i'm q few DAYS this solid track had sunk
some inches below the adjacent land. More eartn
was piled on il and trodden d)wn; but It sank rs
before. AGAIN earth empted on tue line, Win
the same result. In "a word, the railway people have
for some time been busily engaged in carng earn 70
the spot, with effect than If they had tFied 10
GIL the ocean. The morass il quieksand, when
swallows all the earth that j. thrown into IT, Inc
discovery is not without precedent: On the line OF
railway between Liverpool and London simIiar quick
sands occur. When the road was first buit the con-
tractors were thundereTuck at the steady subsdence
of the track, upon which they had vainly dumped
thousards of carloads of earth. With logged per-
severance however they went cartng earth TO the
spot and after time the ground ceased 20 SINK.
The ha found bottonlat depth, it il said Of some
thing less than mile. In other parts OF EDgland-in
LincolnsLre we believe and aso in parts Of the West
similar quicksands traversed by railways on
wide platforms, which act like snew-shoes, and keep
the sieerers aaoat on the surface by their great
breadth The only safe plan Is TO 60 on filing in the
quckstand with earth until bottom is reached We
hear that the spot 10 which refer il 30 spongy IN s
nature that while the track sinks few ineDes asiyi
INC meadows adjacent have been raised several feet.
To what extent this phenomenon may comple'lie the
difficulty the engineers must decide. We believe that

be the fuct, the consequences may hereafter prove
serious to heavy building.
