During the past two weeks the Christmas
tide has brought with il comfort aud good
cheer to most households, and there has been
visiting, and mirth and hilarty throughout
the land. But there are those to whom this
season has looked the darkest, those whose
lives from the commencement Of the new
year down to its close are shroudcd in sorrow
and shaded in poverty. The poverty-strick
en-, the unfortunate, who suffer neglect, hard
ships and privations, whose houses are dcs-
olatc and cold, and dark with hopolessnel.
find little joy, though all around them is
merry The piercing winds Of winter, which
frcshen the young blood and spirits of those
who live in warm houses and are comfortably
clad, send thrill Of added anguish through
the shrunken forms of poverty. To them
the season of Christmas is the beginning Of
Il cold and cherries winter. They remember
Him in honor of whom these festivities are
annually celebrated. lie was the messenger
of ''peacc on earth and good will to man,
but they too often look about them in vain fol
an cycmplifcation of the Gospel Of charity
which He taught. In the midst Of our hol-
iday festivities let not the poor be forgotten.
Remember them with charity and love, and
see to it that at least some Of their homes are
made happy and comfortable and their
hearts filed with cheer.

The Eighth Of January Festival
at Columbus.

The Democracy propose, in lieu of the
usual Eighth of January Democratic Con
vention, to have grand festival IN COM
memoration of the day, at Columbus, on
Friday evening next, which is the forty
ninth anniversary of the immortal Jackson $
victory. The day is so hallowed in the his
tory Of the country, and is so connected with
the glorious recollections and associations Of
the Democratic party, that it would seem to
be almost sacrilege to allow it to pass with
out celebration. We hope to see it, on
this year. celebrated with unusual fervor and
enthusiasm, and trust the celebration will
draw to the Capital large delegation Of the
Democracy from all parts Of the State. Now
is the time for consultation and action in re-
gard to the future, and now is the time for
organization. Many of the best Democrat
ic speakers of the State will be present, and
those who attend the supper will find it, we
have no doubt rich intellectual as well as
physical entertainment-"a feast OF reason
and flow of soul.
1t is eminently proper on this occasion to
remember the impressive warning Of the
Farewell Address of the Hero Of the Her
mitage, in which he says: "But the Union
can not be preserved and the Constitution
maintained by the mere coerciye power OF
the General Government; its foundation
must be laid in the affections Of the people,
and in the security which it gives to life, lib
erty, property and character" These words
of Jackson should be recorded in letters of
gold, and ever held up prominently before
the American people. --Ctn. Eng

the payment Of all bounties shall cease on

keeps the entire matter within the control
of Congress instead of being optional with
the War Department to fix any sum which
it deems proper. 1t also declares that all
communication money paid under the Con
scription act shall be made special deposit

purpose than obtaining soldiers. States

Make Them Merry.

Why don you make you little ones merry
and happy? 1t can be done at a very small
cost, and then it is so pleasant to enter a
family where all the little ones are laughing
and enjoying themselves. Some ask, how
can you make them happy? We know ex-
actly how and will inform you the way to do
it. Go to CAsKEY & INaLEs' and buy few
of the Juvenile Books and Toys to be found
there. A dollar spent in this way pays ten
fold 1t not only increases the happiness Of
the little ones, but it delights the parents
to sec the children enjoy their little gifts.
