WHO WAS SANTA CLAUS s?-Santa Claus
was one of the oldest ideas Of the Celtic
West in Pagan times, as he was of the
Pagan East before. In Christian times he
was still regarded with religious reverence,
sitting, as be had sat for ages in Egypt and
elsewhere, in the arms of his mother.
Santa Claus was, in fact, the child Jesus
in the middle ages and throughout that
period the festive creed Of Germany and
all Celtic Europe was that he visited all
family dwellings of good Christians on
the eve of his anniversary, and brought
with him gifts and blessings for the chill
dren. This beautiful tradition is still to
be found lingering in Germany, though
Santa Claus does not seem TO be specially
connected with it by name. The truth of
this original belief is plainly enough lndl-
Gated by the word Claus" which, in tho
Gothic or Ancient German, means "Child %
and "Son." Santa Claus formerly meant
the Holy Child.-Ne,O York Times.

MEDICINE FOR THE PooR.-We learn that
5000 prescriptions have been put up at
the three dispensaries for the poor estab-
lished by DR.. Parker last summer. These
medicines, if bought at the regular prices,
would have cost $2,5O0; whereas, by this
system of the Doctors, they cost the poor
but $500, thus saving to this suffering class
about $4,000. =.
1t has been necessary to add to these
supplies from time to time qulnine, bis
muth, morphine, potash, and other costly
medicines in general use. 1t will be soon
necessary to add cod liver oil also, large
quantities being used at this season.
DR.. Parker can no longer, out of his pri-
vate means, maintain these dispensaries
and he intends to call upon some of our
weather. citizens to aid him.
With the large stock of medicines on
hand it would be pity to break up these
dispensaries when it will only require about
s40O to maintain them for year to come
Not only economy to the poor is involved
in this matter, but health, and often life
itself

NEGRO KILLED.-On Tuesday evening
last at about S o'clock negro named
John Miller was mashed to death at Dis
patch station by the York River passenger
train; Richmond-bound. There was at
Dispatch station freight car to be at
tached to the train, and Miller attempted
to place the connecting pin. Being an in
experienced hand, he stood so as to be
caught between the bumpers, just below
the pit of the stomach. He was instantly
killed, and his body was brought to Rich
mond on the train.
Miller was native Of Fredericksburg,
and was between thirty and thirty-five
years of age.

A day or two since. in one of the trains
for Boston, quiet individual, sitting by
the stove in one of the passenger cars,
drew forth bottle and commenced laving
his hands with the contents. The day was
very cold, and the neighborhood OF the
stove was crowded. One old man watched
the bottle-holder's operations with great
interest, and finally asked him what kind
of stuff he was using. Glycerine," re-
piled the quiet man. "Glycerine !.thnn-
der . and the old man rushed for the
door. Others caught up the word, and
they all rushed into the adjoining cars,
leaving our glycerine friend to soothe his
chapped hands.

A CHRISTMAS RA1D.-Christmas Eve
night party of young men, emboldened
with spirits, made raid on Baumhard's
Fountain Hall, and made dispositions to
give concert with tin horns and pop
crackers. They were put out, and the
saloon for time closed to prevent further
disturbance. On Christmas night police
force was there to prevent a repetition OF
the previous nights entertainment. An
exuberant young fellow, in the course OF
the evening, startled the crowd present by
firing forty-two-pou in the saloon.
He was arrested and on yesterday paid a
fine of five dollars for his salute.

ATTEMPT TO BREAK OPEN THE IRON
SAFES AT THE SHOCKoE WAREHOUSE
Late Tuesday night last the Sho
Warehouse was entered, and some tobacco
and a number Of small articles carried off.
The thieves only took these articles hoping
in a measure to recompense themselves
for the loss they sustained in not getting
into the large iron safes in the warehouse.
To break into these safes was doubtless
their intention when they entered the
building, as the safes bear marks of having
been tampered with; and there were i'm
plements lying around which had been
brought to break into them.

BOLD THIEF.-On Christmas day the
wife of one of our prominent merchants
was followed by man from the store OF
Messrs. Courtney s. Co., on Broad street,
to DR.. Reads church, at the corner OF
Franklin and Fourth streets. In passing
the church she looked up at the steeple,
and while thus engaged, the man who had
been following her dashed by and snatched
a rcticule from her hand, and made good
his escape. The reticule contained only
small amount Of money.
Several instances of this kind have oc-
Cured lately, and any one caught in the
act should be severely dealt with.

CHEIsTMAs IN RICHMOND.-Chrlstma
1867 is forever gone. Its associations are
buried; itsreinions have been again dis
solved; its turkeys have been eaten ; its
sgg-nogg and apple-toddy have been
drank its pop-crackers have been tired
its headaches and feverish thirsts have
been cured and the world goes on as it
used to. The short period of joyful feel
ing and freedom from care is gone, and we
are again creatures Of busy toll. Ine
meagre remnant Of the Christ mas 1east,
the useless debris of pyrote clinical play
things, and the Christmas offerings OF dear
ones, are all that remain to US OF tins Drlel
season of gladness. . ~
Christmas '67 in Richmond was-Well,
simply Christmas 81 i; celebrated as such
not to degree of hurtful joviality, nor
yet without ao much spirit as the time
honored and loved season could rouse IN
depressed and broken people IN times as
gloomy as these. Everybody took holi-
day-everybody who could ate 8 good
dinner, and mostly everybody drank egg
nogg and apple-toddy. The young people
celebrated the day in good style, as can
well be inferred from the fact that at 5
o'clock not one-fourth Of the dealers in
pop-crackers had pack to sell. This
staple article of Christmas trade was well
in demand from early morn, and steady
firing was kept up in all parts of the city
during the entire day. As night closed in,
thetface of the city was well illuminated
with the fiery jets of rockets and Roman
candles, and there were the usual sounds
of merriment in those households where
childhood and youth were represented.
There was one noticeable fact about
Christmas 1867 in Richmond. There was
but little drunkenness in the streets. This
fact is well attested by the small number
of arrests made and the moderate docket
in the Mayors Court yesterday.
As IL o'clock Christmas night was
tolled, silence reigned in Richmond; Santa
Claus and Kriss Kingle laid down to rest
for another year, after seeing their little
ones fast asleep and joy and gladness
bade us for season adieu.

ANNIVERSARY EXERCISES AT THE SECOND

Christmas day found the Second Presby-
terian (Dr. Hoge'S) church crowded with
the Sunday school scholars, teachers, and
friends of that church, they having as
sembled to participate in the anniversary
exercises of the school. After singing and
prayer, the superintendent, Mr.. William
L. Hill, in few appropriate remarks, dis
tributed sixty-fve prizes to the scholars.
After this, Rev. DR.. Hoge delivered an
interesting address, urging upon the
scholars the avoidance of all delay in their
school and other duties.
At the close of the exercises the
scholars and their guests of the Male Or
phan Asylum repaired to the lecture
room, where an ample feast had been pre-
pared.
The whole affair was most pleasant, car
rying joy to the hearts of all who were
present.
