NEW YEARS EVE AT LEVY Brothers -
The well-known and enterprising proprie-
tors of the Great Southern Dry Goods
House, Messrs. Levy Brothers, successors
to Jacob A. Levy, gave New-Year's eve
entertainment to their emplcyes-no less
than hfty-four in number-last night. The
spacious and elegant store to which they
have lately removed their stock presented
a merry sight when we entered with other
invited guests. Propristors, statesmen,
clerks, cash-boys, and porters, had thrown
aside all restraint, their only aim for tho
time being seeming to be to enjoy them
selves and to r,ake others happy. After
time spent in merry-making, three great
bowls of egg-nogg were uncovered, and a
splendid iced cake brought out, and all
present were invited to partake. It is
needless to say that they did SO and there
was enough, and to spare. A toast to the
proprietors was drunk with right good will,
and responded to by Rev. George Jacobs on
behalf of the firm, and all Joined in wish
ing each member thereof happy new
year a1d continued success.
Such industry, tact, and enterprise as is
displayed by the Leyys, deserve the sue
cess with which they have been crowned.
The proverb "Heaven helps those who help
themselves" has in their case been veri-
fed, to the discontinue of the sceptical.
They now have one Of the finest establish
ments south of New York, and their store
is always crowded with purchasers, being
apparently regarded by the ladies as sort
of Exchange where they can be sure of
meeting each other, and not only buy but
enjoy themselves in hearing and telling
what is new.
1t is noteworthy fact that they attri-
butte their remarkable success in great
degree to liberal and judicious advertising,
rightly believing that it is the sure road to
fortune. They pay to the Dispatch alone
more money for spreading their fame abroad
than any merchant in Richmond does for
house rent, not to speak Of sums spent on
journals Of lesser note. Is it wonderful
that they have been successful (?

BEFORE JUDGE RITRNHaM


Ida Ferguson keeps her Caildren.-Yes-
terday evening at o'clock Mrs. lido Fer
guson and the three children were again
brought into the Sergeant's office.
Mr.. Guigon asked to be allowed to recall
witness to prove that these children were
taken by violence.
Mr.. Courtney, counsel for Ida, objected
to his being allowed to do so.
Judge Burnham then said that he did not
think the recalling of this witness would
make any difference in his decision. He
had thought the matter over, and he
thought that the mother of illegitimate
children is entitled to keep them with her
self. He had examined the Code, and found
no law by which these children could be
taken from Ida Ferguson. He did not think
that their father had shown any legal right
to them. 1t is not, however, for want of
disposition that the Court did not interfere,
but he saw no way by which it could be
done. He therefore directed the children
to be given over to their mother, who went
her way rejoicing.

JAMES JETER PHILL1Ps.-This man once
had chance Of escape when some fellow
prisoners broke out, but he would not 60.
We presume because he believed he would
be acquitted. Now, however, it looks as If
he would break out If he could, for there
has been found in his cell an implement
evidently intended for some such purpose.
From information received from other
prisoners the sheriff became satisfied that
Phillips had knife secreted. On being
asked about it he most solemnly declared
that he had none such, but it was no use
the sheriff got the better of him, ind
finally Phillips had to own up, and he
showed the place where it was concealed.
1t was large Bowie, and formidable
weapon. It is asserted by his fellow
prisoners that Phillips has saw also, but
this also he solemnly denies.

New YEARS DAY.-The advent of new
year has never been at the South season
of such hilarity as it is at the North. With
us as in the mother country, Christmas is
the great festival of the year. We jollif-
cate all through the week following the 25th
of December and taper off on Newly ears
day. Elsewhere it is welcomed by the
burning of bon-fres and firing Of guns by
Juveniles, and with formal calls, balls, and
big dinners, by children of larger growth.
1t is anticipated, however, that the old
custom, now SO universally adhered to at
the North of making New-Year's calls,
will be followed by many of our fashiona
Bile young men to-day. 1t is good Gus
tom, and one to which there can be no rea-
sonable objection, What more pleasant on
the morning of the newborn year than to
receive the warm greetings of friend, ac-
companied by the cordial wish of a happy
year?
1t is much less formal-and therefore
more afectionate, instead Of simply pass
ing the compliments of the season as
friends hurriedly meet upon the promenade
and around the counters Of the stores-for
them to make special visits to each others
house, and there in friendly presence ex-
change such greetings as love and respect
may prompt. In years agone it was the
fashion on this happy occasion for many to
keep open house and bountifully-laden ia
bic during the day for the benefit of all
who might call. But the hospitable custom
was 80 much abused that for the most part
it has been given over.
The banks and Offices. State and Federal
will be closed to-day, as before announced
in these columns. The postofice will be
open, however, between 9 and 10 o'clock this
morning. Divine service appropriate to
the day will be held in St. Paul's Episcopal
church. We have heard of no other reli-
gious appointments. ..e......
