national anniversary--not bit of it. The Fourth

GETTING SCARED.-The New York Herald is de-
liberatey going into spazzums " at the imminent
prospect of war with England and France, as wit
ness the following in late issue. Half dozen
articles in the same number have something
similar:
AN ENGLISH FLEET APPROACHING OUR SHORES
What Is TO be Done e?--According to the latest ad
vices from England, powerful fleet from that
country is already on the way to coast, some Of
the ships armed with the,terrible Armstrong cam
non. French fleet may soon follow in its wake.

selves should these two great nations, with their
mighty armamcnts--foes very different from the
Southern Contederacy--hurl their thunderholts at
our commercial marine, ana even our shps-ot war
We regret to say that it is very dscreOtable to the
nation, and by no means adequate to cope with
such powers on the ocean. The moment Congress
meets thirty new shps'of-war should be ordered to
be built, and number of iron-oased gun-boats,
armed with rilied cannon. Meanwhile, such mer-
chant steamboats, as could be converted into ves-
sels-of-war ought to be purchased by the Govern
ment Immediately, and fitted up and equipped to
meet present emergencies. AT the same time, all
our merchants, in sending their ships to sea- ought

PEACE PoLlCY.-The Diocesan Convention of the
State Of New Hampshire, Bishop Chase, (uncle of
the Secretary Of the United States Treasury pre-
siding, refused by an all but unanimous vote (Only
two clergymen in the afirmatiye) to pass war re-
solutions, proposed by the Rev. DR.. Burroughs.
The Rev. Mr.. Eames spoke eloquently and well
against action on the subject, and his views were
evidently those of the body of the clergy. So the
Episcopal clergy of New IIampshire--all honor to
them ARE still servitors of the Prince of Peace.
What a noble example set before the other Pro-
testant denominations! New York News.
The New Hampshire Patriot has the following in
relation to this subject:
In the Episcopal Convention for Rhode Island,
where the "war fever" RACES most ferCely, no
proposition was made for any action upon the war
question. We learn that the same is true of the
Vermont Convention. Yet we hear not word of
complaint from the papers of those State because
no action was taken. Why, then, is the Conyen
ton of this State so ruthlessy assaed for course
which is not deemed censurable elsewhere? It is
simply because political and religious bigotry anC
hate rule the minds of the Republican leaders here
and they have become blind to sense and decencJ
in regard to matters of this kind.

THE MILWAUKEE RIors.- Mleoauhee, June 24.-
The riot to-day caused greater loss of property
than was first supposed. The attack has been as
eertained to be a regularly organized thing.
Throughout yesterday meetings we're held in the
upper wards of the city. About 10 O'Clock this
forenoon the rioters marched from the Sixth and
Ninth Wards through East Water street to Mitch
ellis Bank, attacking it with stones and bricks, and
soon riddling the windows completely. The clerks
barricaded the doors in order to gain tmsto secure
the valuables, which they did in great measure.
The mob then broke down the doors and soon
stripped the room of everything, throwing the
books and furniture into the street.
The riot was caused by the action of the bankers
on Saturday in throwing out of circulation the
notes Of large number Of the banks of this State.

THE DEATH OF PKINoE ALBERT, the hus-
band of queen Victoria, has no political sig
nficance whatever but it is a very important
occurrence TO the royal family. He was very
well educated and estimable man, to whom
his wife and children were very strongy
attached. The loss will be felt by queen Vic
toria herself more than by any other person
in the kingdom. 1t is said that she manifest
ed the hereditary tendency of her family to
insanity, after the death of her mother. We
shall probably hear similar reports again.
We see it stated that she first became ac-
ton, and that he was introduced to her de-
signedly after great effort had been made to
deter her from marrying Lord Elphinstone.
This is not true, and the gossip about Lord
Fphinstone is probably without the slightest
foundation in fact. Queen Victoria and her
husband were cousins. They spent much
time together when quite young, and before
che became queen, it was well known
that her choice had fallen upon him,
and that nobody but her mother had under
taken to manage the affair. After coming to
the throne, she had fierce quarrel with the
tories because they criticised her choice and
indicated disposition to prevent the marriage.
She married Prince Albert because she would,
and the marriage has been happy one, al
though both of them would have been freer
and happier in private life.
Prince Albert was some three months
younger than the queen. He was born August
26th, 1919, and was married February 10Th,
1910. He leaves nine children, all the queens
children being still alive.

The Christ Child.

On Christmas eve, no house in Germany is
without Its Christmas tree. 1t is the hour of
rejoicing, and round every hearthstone from
the palace to the cottage, gather bright and
happy faces. 1t is with them the evening
when "the Christ Chid" enters every portal,
bearing in his hand gifts for good children.
What beautiful superstition is that of the
Christ hlndchen, or Christ Child There is
radiance then about the brows of the holy
infant, most beautiful in its associations, TO the
simple, loving heart of the little child. There
Is an electric Chain of sympathy that binds
that heart to the Christ Child who, a child
once more, is full OF apprecating love for little
children. The following free translation OF
German story embodies most beautifully the
character of the Christ Kindchen :-"See there
runs stranger child, oh, low swiftly through
the city on Christmas eve, TO see the beautiful
lights that are flashing from many Christ
mas tree. He stops before every house, and
sees the bright rooms in which boldly stand
forth the lamptul trees Woe is to the poor
child everywhere He weeps, and says, ITO
night every child has its little tree-its light
and Joy. L alone have none; in this strange
land l. am forgotten. Will 10 one let me
come IN, and just afford me room for my cold
feet! In all these bright houses, is there
no corner for the stranger child?" He
knocks at the door, and there is no voice
to answer, no kindly hand to welcome. Eve
ry father thinks OF his own children, and
every mother is busy about the gifts. Then
said tile little stranger, o dear and holy Christi
have no tather, no mother, if tnou are not
these to ME. Be thou my counsellor and
friend, for here | am forgotten He rubs his
cold hands, he fingers in the long desolate
streets, with his eyes cast up to heaven. But
look there comes up yonder street waving a
light before him, another child in smooth and
white raiment, and hair that clusters in golden
rlng!ets round lis fair young brows. How
musical his voice, when he says, Il am the no.
ly Christ; again ain once more child, as
always shall be, to the worlds end, on this
happy evening. Though all forget thee, will
never forget thee. l otief my protection, as
well in the street as in the lighted houses The
night, little desoIate stranger, | will cause to
SHINE Ill the open space, SO fair that none in
all these brilliant rooms shall be brighter.
Then waved the Christ Child his hand toward
heaven, and forth stood, gittering over head
with many branches, shining tree, glorious
with host of stars. Bright little angels bent
down from the branches, and drew up the poor
child into the starry space. And so was he
ever with the dear Christ Child" Now, how
much more beautiful and significant is this
lovely creation Of The Christ Child" than
our rude and senseless Santa Claus, who is
nothing more than kind of annual chimney.

"SAMUEL MAY-1797" - These are the
words upon faded sign at the west end of
State and Broad streets, Boston. We first
saw them there long while ago and never
make visit to the city without looking up, to
see il they yet remain. The old sign was
there last Tuesday, and, more than that, we
just learn from gentleman OF Concord, many
years Boston merchant, that Mr.. May still
lives, at the age of ninety, and was, when he
last saw hm--a year or so since--walking
about amidst the familiar places OF his early
manhood and his active prime. The business
is conducted by younger men, but The firm is
Samuel May & Co. The gentleman in this
city ol whom we speak, says Broad street was
laid cut, aud the building erected upon which
the sign is affixed, about 1906, and he thinks
the senior Mr.. May commenced occupancy of
the store when it was completed. That will
give lifty five years occupancy of the same
business stand-something at which to marvel
in this capricous age. When the old sign no
longer speaks with the same emphasis OF the
venerable gentleman whose name it bears, the
public will doubtless learn more of him through
the public papers of Boston. Who, in passing
up or down State street, and seeing those
words at the head OF this paragraph, does not
acquire an interest in Samuel May ?-NeD
Hampshire Statesman.
