with beautiful effect and in the most tasteful
manner. All the churches did not hold services
as is the usual custom, and the religious OBJ
servance OF the day was not as general as has
been in years past
OF course all the fairs did q splendid business
during the day and evening. In the Afternoon
the theatres and other places of amusement we're
crowded. The streets we're thronged with o
lively and merry crowd of people, young and
old, and the ear was almost deaiened with the
lncessant Clangor of tin trumpets, which seemed
to keep up one inccssant din from early morning
until late at night. Of course with such Gro Hd
in the streets there was q considerable business
done in the fancy goods and confectionery line.
and shopkeepers did not look so blue as on
Monday. .r.
In the evening, the theatres were again
jammed, and the rush for seats was so great that
considerable difficulty was found to accommo
date all.
At the Green Hill Hail. at Seventeenth and
Poplar streets, sacred concert was held. The
proceeds were for the benefit of the st. stephens
German Reformed Church. The singing was
excellent. and the selections were made with
good taste and judgment.
At st. Johns NJ. Il. Church, in Third street,
below George, a children's concert was given
for The benefit of the Church. The exercises
consisted of singing by the children. Several
given with beautiful effect, and addresses suita-
BILE to the occasion were delivered by juveniles
appointed for the purpose.
AS a general thing, Christmas was not as
generally observed as In times past. There
seemed to be a sort of depression that dead
ened all enjoyment. Whether from the general
stagnatiOn or from the weather we cannot
decide which, but all will agree that it was not
as merry as in former times
