CHRIsrMAs.-Our Christmas, this year, was
remarkably dull. Every one was complaining,
especially the vendors of those light, fanciful
and pretty things, intended for the little folks
on this eventful occasion. The young, who
generally indulge to their full extent on this
anniversary, enlvened the streets of our town,
for while, by shooting off miniature cannons
and fire. crackers, and the older portion of the
community quietly INDUCED themselves in
roast turkey and cranberry sauce, and smooth
ed the occasion over in a copious draught of
generous wine. There was no ball in the eve
ming, as is usual, and no place of amusement
open, and pleasant peacefulness, assisted by
a bright, suushiny day, pervaded the commui-
ty, and the Christmas of 81 passed quietly and
almost duly away. May the next be moro
merry.

We have already shown that in the
West Col. Burbridge has advanced
as far as Woodbury., which is at the

fifteen miles beyond Nolin and
taken position at Bacon Creek,
which is not more than six or seven
miles from Munfordsyille, on the
