THE NEW YEAR.

The record of 1863 is about being seal
ed up. The great events that have trans
pired are now matters for the historian to
weave into the long continuous chain that
connects the dim, long-distant past with
the present, and hence to the closing up
of human events. The year past has
been one of tho most intensely interesting
and solemn in the history of the nation.
The record is so fresh in the mind Of ey-
cry reader of the news Of the day as TO
require at this time no recapitulation,
save that the approaching new year finds
us graphing with the gigantic rebellion
that has for nearly three years threaten
ed the destruction of the Republic, but
with this difference, that the march Of
victory and conquest has somewhat con-
tracted the limits of active operations of
our enemies. The people demand of our
rulers the most vigorous and cffectual ef-
forts on their part to restore to us again
the palmy days of peace, on terms at once
honorable, constitutional and just to all
parties interested. Enough of bloodshed,
carnage and death, we would suppose,
has marked our history for the past three
years to satisfy the blood-thirsty desires
of the most inhuman; and the cry of
Enough~ ENoUGH!P comes to the
ears of our rulers, from every part of our
land, in tones of earnestness that can not
be mistaken or deceived. That cry MUST
BE HEARD AND NEEDED! Hence we can
but desire, however foreboding the aspect,
that before another annual season of fes-
tivities and congratulations shall arrive
the remnant of our braves shall have re-
turned home to bless and confederation
long years devoted to their country-the
dear ones at home, long hoping and pray
ing for their return. Is it unchristian, or
unreasonable, or unpatriotic to hope for
the consummation Of so desirable an event
during the year just dawning upon us
Another great national event that will de-
mand our attention during the coming
year will be the election of a Chief Mag
istrate Of the people. Where shall the
man be found equal TO the trust that will
lead the people to the desired goal Of
peace, and thence along the high road Of
national honor and prosperity? Such a
man, wherever he may be, we desire to
see elevated to that most honorable and
responsible position and will do our ut,
most to honor such an one. With an
earnest longing for the consummation Of
these two great events we wish ouI
neighbors, one and all, "Happy New
Year. hoping that we shall not any Of
US be found negloctful Of our duty as citi-
zens to once great and glorious country

LATEST NEWS.

BOSTON, Dec. 70.
The officers of the gunboat acacia re-
port that when they left Halifax, warrants
were out for eight of the pirates of the
Chesapeake, all of whom were in the
city, and had been for several days, but
it was doubtful if any arrests could be
made, as the police were in the interest
of the rebels, and the people bitterly OPP
posed to such measures.
The st. Croix Herald, published at Ca
lais, New Brunswick, states much excite
ment exists there in consequence Of APP
prehension of contemplated raid by reb-
el agents and roughs from the vicinity of
ST.. Johns. The citizens of Calais had
formed themselves into Home Guards and
hold themselves in readiness for any raid
that may be attempted.
The Traveller, of this city, has letter
from Beaufort, S. c., dated the Odd inst,
which says:
"An expedition is about starting. All
is hurry, no one knows its destination, but
the fact that it is TO be commanded by
Gen. Seymour indicates it is of some inn
portance, for he is fighting man. The
order to strike tents was given at six o.
clock and at ten they were off,"
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2S.
1t has transpired in official quarters
that, although at one time named for the
place, Gen. Rosecrans, has not, and will
not now be ordered to the Department Of
Missouri.
The War Department has refused per-
mission to agents in Boston, Worcester
and other cities and towns in Massachu-
sets, to enlist contrabands in this district
and at Fort Munroc, to be credited 10 the
quotas of those places in Massachusetts.
The enlistments already made in tho city
and Georgetown, for Rhode Island, were
without the sanction of the authorities.
Intelligence has reached here that one
night of last week number Of oyster
boats, under proper authority, went in
to York River, for cargo Of oysters, and
while engaged in loading, nine of them
were boarded by rebels near, who came
off in boats, on the pretensc that they
were to ship to make up the cargo, and
seized the crew, numbering over fifty men,
whom they placed in irons and sent them
to Richmond, and set fire to the vessels
which were totally destroyed. The reb-
els, before destroying the vessels, are TO
portrd to have carried off the stores and
all valuables found on the persons of tho
prisoners. The oysters were intended fol
the Army Of the Potomac.
ST. JOINS, N. B., Dec. %.
Collins and Mckenzie, two of the
Chesapeake pirates, were arrested and
brought before tho police magistrate to-
day. On application Of their counsel, the
examination was postponed for week.

Christmas.

Christmas day passed off very pleas
antly with US. On Christmas eve dis
course was preached by Rev. Mr.. Wood,
an Episcopal clergyman, from Plainfeld,
Kent Co., at tho Courthouse. The
Courtroom was handsomely decorated
with eyergrcens for the occasion by the
ladies, and the discourse was appropriate
and excellent. At the close Of tho oxer-
cises, there was an assemblage of as hap
py group of children as ever welcomed
Merry Christmas" at the school-room,
in the basement Of the Presbyterian
Church, where two Christmas Trees,
hung richly with the choicest gifts Of San.
ia Claus, greeted tEcir wistful eyes. A
second tree bore acceptable fruit for the
adult portion of the audience. After an
appropriate and impressive prayer by Rev.
Mr.. Wilhelm tho prizes were distributed
and a repast, provided by our citizens,
partaken Of with n relish that evidenced n
due appreciation of good things.
We understand Christmas Trees we're
also provided, bearing almost all manner
of good fruit, at the residences Of Mr..
Fred Becktel and VIM. Ii. Parks.

Steam Ferry.

The subject of Steam Ferry, between
Grand Haven and the Railway Station,
opposite, has been under the considera-
ton of many of our prominent citizens for
sometime past. Its necessity is too ap-
parent to those having business between
the two points to need any argument in
its favor-though no fault can reasonably
be found with the lessees, Messrs. Fetch
or and Vanderhoef. 1t can't be denied
we live in an age of steam, and steam
transportation is needed here for the con-
venience and safety Of travellers, and for
better freighting facilities. It's the opin-
of Capt. Squiers, Station Master, that a
Steam Ferry would be well sustained at
the rates now charged for ferriage, and we
presume he could be induced to take
charge of such an enterprise. Let the
Board of Supervisors, at its January SEES
sion, rake over the matter. The commu-
nifty generally desire and demand such
action as will secure the immediate
establishment of Steam Ferry at this
point.

NEW YEARS GREETING,
FROM

TO
INVALIDS EVERYWHERE.

Times Thronc-since Order, Life and Light
Sprang, at Gods call from shapolcss night
Has ne'cr been vacant; still we sing
"The King is dead" and /" Live the King"
When of the royal race of Years
The reigning monarch disappears,
Fen rs booms forth the Death-bells tone
A young successor mounts the throne.
King -Three's career is Ger
Hail to the new King, Sixty -Four!
Though Battles thunders shake the air,
And war-drums beat, and trumpets blare,
Smiles in the North, Triumphant Trade,
Sustained by enterprise and skill,
Material interests flourish still.
The tillers of the fruitful soil
Enjoy the harvest of their toll,
And in our cities plenty reigns,
While hope tho Nations heart sustains.
We know-the Union once restored,
Into its sheath shall drop the sword,
And from wars smoke, with strifo's surceaso,
Bursts-robed in light-the angel Peace.
Meanwhile my pleasant task shall DO
To set Diseases Captivos free,
Pain to prevent relieve, and cure,
And health build up on basis sure.
My Stomach Bitters, void of harm,
Act on Dyspepsia like charm,
Restore the systems tone, and quite
Bring back the long lost appetite;
Debility with strength replace,
With health's hue tint the paid face,
And new vitality dispense
To every organ, nerve and sense.
If virus, with infection rife,
Pollutes the rnddy streams of life,
Cleanse it at once and health instill
With tho Blood Purifier and Pill.
In short, there's not an ailment known
That has not, as by proofs I've shown,
Been conquered, since across the seas
I brought my peerless remedies.
Or, if a stimulant you need,
From everything pernicious freed,
Pure, soothing, comforting and mild,
| The Grapes Elixir Indebted,
My old Catawba Brandy try,
Endorsed by all the Faculty.
In Soldiers Homes and Hospitals
For this tho careful surgeon calls,
Because no other stimuli
Can, for tho sick, its place supply;
Adulteration spoils tho rest,
But this comes out free from every test,
Like thrice tried gold-purc, unalloyod--
OF every base ingredient void.
Some wish their friends joyful year,
1 will do more, offer here
The means TO solace pain and woe,
And keep at bay the stealthy foe
Who robs us of our strength and case,
That curse with many names-Disease.

OF THE SOUTHERN
CONFEDRRACY.

A note in Tas Monheur pretends to clear up
the apparent contradiction between tho state
ments of Mr.. Roebuck and Mr. Lindsay res
pecting their interview with the Emperor OF
France, and the emphatic denial Of some Of
these statements by the members Of the En-.
glish Cabinet. Mr. Roebuck and Mr. Lindsay
claimed to be authorized by the Emperor 10
strueted Baron Gros TO propose negotiations to
the English Government. The British Govern
ment denied having received any communicn-
ton from France on tho subject and Baron
Gros was equally explicit in saying hc had re-
ceiyed no instructions. The Monheur now
explains that the Emperor declared that "h,
did not think he could submit nec proportion
TO England withou. tho certainty Of its accept
snce." but that "his Enbassador Ia London
should nevertheless receive instructions TO sound
the English Cabinet upon the subject, giving 1t
20 understand that If England thought the re-
cognilion Of the South likely TO put an end To
the war, tho Emperor was disposed TO follow
her In that course"
that Nr. Roebuck Misunderstood tho Emperor
on two points. The Emperor bad not yet in.
siiucted Baron Gros 70 propose to England
negotiations, nor did he intend 10 give any
such Instructions but Baron Ores was to
confno himself 10 sounding the intention. Of
tho Brtish Government but was at the same
time authorized 10 express the Willingness of
the Emperor to follow England in tho recogni.
ton Of the Southern Confcderacy.
We have, however, now the official aimis-
sion that tho Emperor is ready for recogn-
ton Of the Rebel Confederacy. II will further
be seen that the words Of the Monitew By no
means exclude determination Of tho Emperor,
in case England should refuse TO take the lead,
TO act for himself And this course be 10 gen.
orally expected in Europe soon to take. A
paper in Vienna claims 10 have positive nssur-
ancc that tho Emperor will shortly propose to
the Government at Washington an armistice,
and tha. if this should be rejected to recognize
at once the Rebel States.

but adding, '"I knop that this War for the

The citizens of New-York may charge much
of the murderous violence of the last few days
to their own lack of frmness and courage. If
every man had felt that he was bound to pre-
serve public order and protect the defenseless,
and had bravely acted on that conviction, the
mob would have been checked at once. Re-
member ho,c the murders of negroes have been
committed-twenty, or fifty, or five hundred
people looking on, not aiding or sympatblzlng
with the Internal atrocity, but not daring to
interfere actively to stop it, and so, in broad
daylight, basely suffering these unodending, un-
happy negroes to be murdered, and the city to
be forever dishonored.
Oh People of New-York. resolve that hence
forth, you, each of you, will strive to lift the
weight of this reproach, by showing what you
have not shown this week, courageous hu.
manity toward the oppressed, and a resoute
support of the law.
