Dear Dispatch,-While we have been
enjoying the festivity Of merry Christmas,
and celebrating the birth Of new year,
many Of US have enjoyed "good things"
and others Jared sumptuously," while
others yet have had no fire, no food, and
scanty clothes. How can they be merry
If We should rejoice with those that re-
joice, we ought also to weep with those
who weep-we ought to do more! Yes
terday, amid the cold and snow, four or
five persons came into my store to beg
little meal. One "a little girl), ashamed to
beg, asked to buy q cents acorh Of meal
for her mother. 1t was all tho money she
had, and her mother had no bread. For
weeks many of the workshops have been
closed; and if the working men and their
families can scarcely exist while they are
working, what must be their condition
when idle? But why ask Any one
whose eye and heart is open can see daily
the want Of poor, respectable people in
Richmond. While in the army we only
received one pound of meal and one-third
of q pound of bacon each day, and of that
we gave little to the poor of Rich
mond. Now that we have more, will
we not give something, too? The name of
Richmond, and her people, and works
of charity they did, are they not blazon-
ed in history and writ in the hearts of hun
drcds, yea, thousands, of men! Surely
there will not be falling off now, when
women and children are suffering pro-
pose this easy way of doing something for
them: There are in Richmond say 1900
stores, business, and commission houses. If
each one will give land who will notT
twenty five cents there will be $500; and
that will buy twenty barrels of flour and
seventy-fve to one hundred bushels Of
marlborough to give two hundred fami-
lies twenty pounds Of flour and peck of
meal each. If this is done every month
it will relieve many. 1t can be greatly
increased, am sure. Wemust not despise
the day of small things. "Let each one
give as he is disposed in his heart" re-
Wondering that God loveth a cheerful
giver. L. L. A.

The Story of a Missing Trunk.

To the Editor of the Providence Journal:
Between thirty and forty years ago q
family of wealth left Boston for Europe by
way of New York, and just before leaving
the latter city for England they concluded
to send back to Boston trunk filed with
articles to them of great value, not wish
ing to take the risk OF taking the same
with them to Europe. The trunk was sent
by the mate of a vessel from New York to
Boston, and he delivered it faithfully to
the gentleman to whom it was directed,
who was then, and for about thirty five
wears after, a director i'll one of our old
banks; and for it's safe-keeping he deposit
ed it in the bank in which he was a direc-
tor, with his name upon the trunk-placed
there by Mr.. N, the owner, in New
York-and Mr.. c., to whom it was ad-
dressed, wrote underneath the same: 10
remain in the bank until called for by Mr..
N, on his return from Europe" The
trunk did SO remain in the bank as direct
ed. with large number of other trunks, it
being customary for the cashier or tellers
to deliver trunks to their owners only when
called for.
The family of Mr.. N. remained in Eu-
rope fer number of years; and on their
return they probably remembered that
the trunk was sent to Boston, and that
their faithful coachman, to whose care
they probably supposed they had sent it,
or who they supposed had probably OBJ
tanned possession of the same on its ar
rival in Boston, had, soon after the family
left for Europe, absconded to New York
with their coach and horses, sold the same
for his own benefit, and then left for parts
unknown. Therefore the supposition Of
the family was that he had taken the
trunk also. In consequence of o recent
judicial decision that banks and bankers
were accountable to the owners OF suct

Who Is Santa Claus?
New YORK, December 80, 1861


To the Editor of tie Ne,o York Times:
Rudolph" in your paper of the goth,
does not seem disposed to allow that Claus,
in the old German or Gothic, means son
and child. In this | think he is wrong, for
in the old German I find ElGhs or hlQhoLs
meantson and child. Klahns is the Celtic
form of Elius. XII or Gil meant the same ;
as " Gil. Maurice in the old ballad, and
giHe or gilLy in the old Gaelic or Scottish.
Cnul, celia, hilh, ellie, are Hebrew, Basque,
American, and Irish, for the same. Us or
ais, in the same languages, and in the Gothic
dialect and the Greek, means the same
son or child. Tlahus or Claus is, by COM
pound title, man-child, or male child.
" Rudolph" is right, however, in saying
the Germans apply the name to an old
man. Indeed, at the roots of languages
we find the same word meaning son or child
and man. BARN and berne, the Celtic for
man baron is our form Of it,, are the same
word. Kuer, in the Etruscan, the Scientific
and the Celtic (Gur and Glor) means man
and son. Culo is man in the Gypsy speech.
Are there not old German legends of
Christmas, describing the coming Of the
Holy Child with gifts for the children?
"Rudolph" ventures to explain the
hanse towns which have never yet been
explained. The word hanSe, like most
other words in the German vocabulary, is
Celtic, and has the meaning of Fdr-eSe,
and Op-See, and Ir-ese. 1t is an epithet,
and means Coast,ciSe or Western. FriSe
(the Jutland region), OpSee tine liquor so
termed), Irish, the Celtic Cor all the west
of the known world, have the exact She
mitic and Celtic meaning of Hanse. The
latter was, very appropriately, the most
ancient name of Ireland-a fact which few
perhaps are aware of. Han-se is COM
pound of two Scientific or Celtic words,
meaning western, or lower, extremity"
Fearing that you will say my explanation
is filter for "Notes and Queries" than o
popular journal, here shut up-com-
punctiously. FREsCHI JABBER.

ARRAY AT THE MONUMENTAL HoTEL.-
On Saturday afternoon two white men,
named Radcliffe and Davis, entered the
bar-room of the Monumental Hotel IN
company with mulatto named Gum, and
demanded to take drink together. The
barkeeper refused to allow them to do SO !;
but they insisted, and Mr.. Scammon (the
barkeeper) succeeded in putting them out
of the room. A difficulty then occurred
between Davis and Scammon, in which the
latter is said to have come out second best.
The whole party then attacked Scammon,
but he was able to hold his own. The
affair will be investigated at the Mayors
Court this morning.

A RICH SCENE IN A Town Council
The Brantford Exposition gives the follow
ing description of rich scene in the Town
Council of that town "The Mayor had
the bad manners to guffaw right out at
recent meeting of the Council because
one of the councillors spslled canal, in a
motion made, thus kannell.' The coun-
cillor became indignant at the want OF
courtesy, while he could not but feel sur
prised when the functionary told him he
ought to have spelled the word thus
'canawl., The Mayors mode of spelling,
however, brought other members to their
feet, and general discussion followed.
The affair ended in compromise, it being
unanimously agreed that the word should
be spelled kenneth"

A STORY OF FELINE SAGACITY.-The fol-
lowing incident is reported in the Provi-
dence Herald as having occurred in the
town of Bristol, r. l.:
GA large, well-fed and much-petted cat
belonging to Mr.. John Bullock, of this
town, saved the life Of its owner and the
destruction of his house by fire, on Sunday
night last. Mr.. Bullock's residence is on
the west side Of High street between State
and Court streets. He is our 'oldest in
habitant Ibis age being ninety -eightyears.
On the night mentioned he heated brick
on the kitchen stove, and on retiring for
the night wrapped the brick in a cloth and
placed it in the foot of his bed to keep his
feet warm-as has long been his custom on
cold nights. This done, the old gentleman
& turned in and was soon in the arms of
Morpheus. The heat of the brick set fire
to the bed clothes, and the cat-the
only other inmate of the room-in-
cred ble as it may seem, jumped against
the window, breaking pane of glass,
lie ped out, went to the window OF
the room where some other members OF
the family slept, broke another square OF
glass, entered the room, awoke one of the
occupants, and scratched and apparently
attempted to bite the person who got up to
remove the intruder from the room. On
opening a door leading to the adjoining
room the smoke was discovered, and on
entering the apartment where Mr. Bull
lock slept, the bed clothes were found to be
on fire. The smoke had nearly suffocated
the old gentleman, and few minutes de.
lay would have proved fatal to him and
doubtless have set fire to the dwelling
The cat, great favorite, has been kept IL
the family of Mr.. Bullock for upwards o.
twelve years, and the affection for this sa
gacious tommy which was felt previou:
to his giving the alarm last Sunday nigh
has by no means diminished, as our read
ers may suppose"
