The piquant lady editress of the best paper

"There are rumors about change in bon.
nets, from which we shrink, as in days Of
adolescence, from nauseating doses. The
petite tanctons we now wear are great iavorites
from their lightness and dainty beauty, but the
change in hair garniture necessarily produces a
difference in the shape of bonuets
In hats already there's a change, decidedly
for the better. However stylish may be the
present styles Of round hats and caps, they are
perfectly useless for the original purpose Of
shading the face and eyes and protecting the
complexion. Hence the broad brimmed hats
of the past are revived, of mushroom shape,

SUSPENSION FROM THEMINIsTRY.-At
the last meeting Of the St, Gainesville
(Ohio) Presbytery, the Rev. Samuel Boyd
wassuspended from the exercise of the
office of Christian ministry, and from
the communion OF the Church. Mr..

OH LANDS.-The oil excitement during
the past few weeks has not ahated, on
the contrary greatly increased. The
State of West Virginia will ere long
prove entirely inadequate to satiate the
oil land hunters; indeed, we are not
quite sure but the area of territory with
in her limits is already too small.
Land is seemingly changing hands by
whole counties Many tracts have been
resold two OF three times within the
past three months-double the cost price
at each sale.
Biologists are now of the opinion that
West Virginia includes within her Dor
ders oil territory quite as valuable as
that of any other State, to say nothing
of her great mineral resources which, i'll
our opinion, will exceed the expectation
of the most sanguine, when they come to
be developed.
The oil land purchasers are numerous,
but their purchases are not large, with Il
few exceptions Included among the
wholesale purchasers, our reporter Oh

Mr.. A. Thayer, of Baltimore, and John
Mead, of Philadelphia. also several New
York names, have made extensive pur-
chases. The most prominent among the
latter is Mr. Geo. Hoffman, President OF
| some large company now organizing In
New York.
This gentleman's agents we learu were
early on the ground. They visited this
portion of the State last August, a
! which time they commenced to lease
and purchase oil lands without hind
rance OF competition, as there was bu
little excitement at that time. These
agents, we are informed, made it poin

This day of u Lords nativity Is now
generally celebrated as a Holiday. All
Christian denominations now engage in
special services on that day, and the bust
ness Of all our American communities is
suspended, in great measure, in respect to
the time. 1t really is not of great import
ance to prove the day to be the literal an
niversary of Christ's birth; so long as all
Christians agree to so consider it, the ben
efts of the season are secured.
This is a special time for children's fes-
.ivals; and from this date to New Years
there is a week Of appropriation to chill
dren's parties and exhibitions. Here and
in Virginia City the various religious de-
nominations, or most Of them, have public
exercises under Sunday School auspices.
They are arranged so that they do not
conflict with each other in appointment.
Every one who can should attend these
gatherings. Men Of families will all be
apt to attend; but our host Of bachelor
boys need the blessing of such an audi
ence more than does pGter familiGS.
In accordance with custom, no paper
will be issued from this Office on Monday,
the Christmas Of 1865. A Merry
Christmas" to our readers, and a hope
for many returns of the same to their
earthly enjoyment and specification.
