FULL OF BUsISEss.-Mr. Daniel Lincoln,
proprietor ofthe Metropolitan Gift Book Store
was full of business yesterday, We do not
use that phrase in the extra-modern sense
that is given it. Cause why the Grand
Jury are abroad just now. But we mean
that he opened his establishment al half past
ten o'clock yesterday morning, and his door
was besieged all day by a good-natured
mob Of men, women and children, every
one of whom holds in hands q certificate
emitting them to a Christmas gift. The
walk in front Of the store is crowded with
candidates for Christmas utilities and adorn-
ments. Policemen guard the front and rear
doors. The people pass through with their
gilt boxes, or articles too large for inclose-
ment in the same, and find exit upon the
street in rear of the American House. Ever
and anon the tidings float back, of the draw
ing of a piano, organ, sewing machine, or
costly piece of silver, when the eager crowd
fling up their caps, ~bonnets, etc, and shout
for joy and hope hat each Of them may be
equally lucky. Where is Ryder, Greene, or
Decker? They are not OIL the ground, pho
tographing this last sensation and demon
stration!

How CHRISTMAS PASSED 0FF.-The police
say that Christmas was celebrated and spent
in a very quiet manner throughout the city.
Their statement may be accepted. The ae-
eustomed, appropriate services were held in
the morning in the Episcopal and Catholic
churches. All day long men, women and
children crowded the streets, sightseeing,
~promenading, enjoying the bland air, the
genial sunshine, and hunting after Christ
mas. Theyoung folks looked as if they had,
that morning, unloaded stockings, every one
of which was ike the old cornueopia fol
fullness and blessings. Places Of business
were generally closed, the public schools
ditto, and the day was essentially and man
ifestly a holiday.
Notwithstanding the report Of the police,
a few parties came around TO the station
house this morning, to show the iIlegitimate
Christmas presents they received, in the
form Of eyes draped in mourning, heads
with new or greatly exaggerated phreno-
logical developments, peeled faces, &C., from
the fists and claws of wretches who had
gone back on them. But in 8 city of sixty
Thousand people, itcsn hardly be expected
that every enc will be animated, even in a
distant way and on Christmas. with the
sentiment and spirit Of Him whose nativity
makes the 25th of December an almost uni
versal h~olidsysand day of cheer and rejoie-
ing throughout Christendom. -"

EDITORS LEADER: Is it not strange that a
city of the proportions of Cleveland cannot
boast of e gymnasium Strange that an
Institution of this nature does not flourish
when there are 50 many young men whose
occupation and pursuits deprive them in q
great measure of muscular exercised One
would naturally suppose that gymnasium,
in the hands of a competent manager, would
be literally sustained and patronized, but
facts prove that the converse of This is true.
1t is a sad commentary on the muscular pro-
e~livities of ous young men, and calls upon
the devoted few" to wake up the rest to ae-
ton. We repudiate snything like the
"muscle MANIA" and only wish to see an
institution started where moderate and
healthy exercise can be had regularly. Can
not some effort be made to set the ball in
notion A suitable hall could be engaged
and plain apparatus furnished without
much trouble and expense, and the only
thing wanted is the desire on the part Of our
young men 10 train up their muscle Gin the
wayit should 60" Would that a blast from
Gabriel's trumpet might wake them from
their effeminate sleep, and cause them to
shake off the shackles Of sloth. As long as
young men spend all their spare time in
concert and billiard saloons, we must ex-
pect to see a race of pigmies instead of
broad-chested, loDg-Winded athletes.
