CHRISTMAS EVA merrier Christmas
Eve Cleveland has never witnessed than
was last night, commencing shout Z o'elcck
and continuing along to the small hours of
morning. The big hearts Of the people, in
The face Of all the turbulence Of the times,
would swell out, and tho result was most
happy. Every store wherein could be found
an article that would answer for a gift was
6lled with all classes Of buyers, and no
clerk was found for q moment idle ct his
post. On the streets the hilsrity was re-
markhble, and would have proved irresisti-
bic to the most il-grained Cynic that sver
lived. People laughed with more vigOr
than usual, and chstted with less reserve.
The various parties were we'll attended, and
carried on with more than ordinary zest;
and in short pleasure was everywhere the
order, to the exclusion of all else. At the
time We write, the promise for good sleigh
ing to-day is Aattsring.
