81 CHRISTMAS GIFTs.-The stringency of
the money market had a manifest infiu-

last night and I'VE heard frequent COM
plants of short sales on the part of our toy
dealers. AS we took our usual Christmas
eve ramble along the streets, we noticed
that the toy shops were less crowded than
in former years, and the statesmen seemed
less weary. After the adjournment of the
Episcopal Sunday School Festival, ALL
ering & Hassler's store was densely crowd
ed for while with beaux and bellies, and
trade was quite lively for time. To-day
the young folks viii no doubt patronize
the candy and toy shops to the extent of
their exchequers, but last night was de-
cidedly dull, compared to other seasons.
The sound of fire crackers was hushed, in
q great measure, and there were but few
shouters going about the streets.

side walks were alive with active, moving
humanity, and the stores of all kinds were
thronged with eager visitors making pur-
chases for the holidays. We noticed that
turkeys. though unusually plenty yester-
day, rapidly disappeared during the day,
and by night 1t was hard to find a nice one
i'm the city. There win be a new stock on
hand this morning. Two tons of oysters
were received On Saturday by express, and
large additions were expected last night.
Everything gives promise of 8 lively
Christmas.
