Christ

Christmas, that hallowed season when the
Christian world celebrate 1.-THE advent Of tho
Saviour Of mankind, was observed in this city by
the general closing Of business places, and par.
taking Of generous dinners. on the part Of those
who 'onld afford it, Of oysters and turksy--liks.
wise duck
Rsligiously the day was observed by full
morning service and the administration Of tho
Holy Communion at Christ Church, episcopal
which was beautifully decorated with evergreen !;
and BY four masses at the Rom Catholic church,
high mass at 5 o'clock, low mass at and 0, and
high mass again at l01a o'clock AM, with q ser.
mon. The music throughout the high masses
was rendered really gorgeous BY tho assistance
of the St Columbia Band, who had spent much
time in preparation for the occasion. There was
no religious recognition Of the day. We believe,
by any other OF our denominations.

Fox River Bridge.

Corporations, it is said, have NO souls, but BY
the following it will be seen that liberal streak
has certainly come ever the Fox River Bridge
Company. The resolutions explain themselves
Tho present stockholders, whose shares are at
premium OF 10 per cent, propose to pat them in.
to common pot and sell them in $50 shares at
par to all persons interested in the bridge and to
make the bridge free to all shareholders. At
present the Communication price for the year rsr.-
ges from 81 to $40. Of course everybody using
the bridge will make money by purchasing a
share instead of paying the communication The
plan strikes as eminently liberal and praise
thy. We commend it to the attention of the
stockholders of the Illinois river bridge
At an adjourned meeting of the stockholders
of the Ottawa Fox River Bridge Company, held
December 81, 1868, at their toll house in Ottawa
the following resolutions were unanimously
adopted:
Resotrea, That article nineteen 40 OF the bv-
laws of the company be so amended that the di.
-ectors of the company be authorized on the sur
render OF the present outstanding certificates Of
shares OF stock, which shares represent one
hundred dollars each, to issue in their stead TWO
shares Of Fifty dollars each for all OF the outstand-
ing shares of one hundred dollars each.
Resolred. That the directors are hereby author.
lied and empowered on the surrender of the pres
ent outstanding certificates of stock, the shares
OF which represent one hundred dollars each, to
issue in their stead certificates for shares of fifty
dollars each, two for one.
Res0lesd. That stockholders of the COMPANY
owning one share of fifty dollars shall have the
privilege of crossing the bridge free of toll As we'll
rs TO receive thsir'pro rata share of the dividends
subject only to the rules ana regulations Of the
company.
Resolrtd, That the stockholders of the com.
pany pledge themselves one with apesh.r Il de-
post all their stock before the tenth day Of Jam
uary, 1869 in the hands Of +. A. Sherwood, for
the convenience Of parties wishing to purchase
and they hereby instruct him TO sell such new
shares at not moro than fifty dollars each and de.
vide the money received from the sale of such
stock pro rata, among those depositing their
stock.
Resolrsd, That q copy of these resolutions be
furnished to each of the city papers for publ
cation J. ID. OLMsTEAD

HEARTH AND HoME.-The initial number OF
the new raral and family paper published by
Pettrngill, Bates & Co., 81 Park Row, New
York. and edited by Donald G. Mitchell and
Harriet Bescher Stowe, has come to hand, and
fulfills its promise handsomely. 1t is indeed a
beautiful paper, superbly illustrated, and filed
with the very best reading matter. A single
number is worth dozeas of the fnshy weeklies
by which the tables OF oar News Depots are
usually loaded Although not excluding the
story, it gives much the largest attention to
agricultural mattsrs-fruit growing, ornamental
gardening, rural architecture, and matters par
ticularly adapted to the family circle. OF all
the large New York, Boston or Philadelphia
weeklies, we know of none that covers the same
ground SO we'll. I'm fine, we like it,

The PRAIRIE FARMER, since it. s,larxsm.,,

The PRAIRIE FARMER, since its enlargement
last summer, has certainly no superior among
the agricultural papers Of this country. Tspe-
cially to the farmer of the northwest should II
be priced above any publication We know Of.
It's matter is nearly all original, written BY prac.
tical men. many Of them doubtless more skilled
in handling the pillow or hoe than the pom, yet
whose contributions, pruned and dressed by the
skillful hand of the editor, are msthedical and
concise, and full Of solid, practical good sense.
We are tempted to say, the farmer in the north
west is unfit for his calling who is not regular

The Head Quarters of Santa Clau. in Otta-
va, this year, was decided at Henry Walthers,
and the rush of old and young, big and little,
grave and gay, lively and severe on Wsdnes-
day and Thursday, and particularly ON Thurs
day evening, was almost appalling. How, in such
display Of every thing that ia attractive to the
eye lay around loose in every direction, half of
it val not stolen, was to as n wonder. Yet
Henry assure. us he lost very little if anything
in that way. Henry has splendid stock still
left for new year, which, having had 30 fine o

Christmas morn by tho gift of new dress

the rich and beautiful stock of Scott, Houtz &

WHATS THE REASON ?-Usually for day or
two before Christmas poultry and game Of all
sorts is superabundant in our Market but this
year il was singularly SCARCE. Iycskeys, duck,
and chickens were worth "a to 1S cts on the
street on Thursday, and scarce at that, while
game brought any price. About II o'clock Mr.
Jos. WATTS came in with small load and as
every body knows how much superior his poal-
try is to any other brought into this market, q
general rush was made for his wagon, and it was
cleaned out in no time at any price he chose to
ask. Our special thanks are due, however, to
Mrs. w. for saving out for thr editor splendid
pair Of ducks which shone refulsent at orr
Christmas dinner, and was the envy OF all eur
neighbors that saw them.
