If there is any one thing that is
abominabls, it is to have two interesting
young men, walk into church, looking
dirty, snd even filthy, with a mouth full
of tobacco, take scat by you with their
understandings smelling Of the odor of
the barn, and themselves squirting the
juice of tobacco en- the floor. These
nice yoHng men, shave no regard for
silk dresses, or, in fact, any kiAd Of a
dress. They spattcr them with perfect
impunity, and seem to regard them
selves as entitled to all the seat room,
and as the only occupants Of the church
Of any importance. Such young men
ought to learn that the churches are
not tho like Of bar.rooms, and their
duty when in church, is to behave
themselves, aud be careful to shake off
the odor of the barn nest and hen
roosts, before entering church. 1t will
be better for all concerned. And then
by all means spare the floor, ladies,
dresses, and the carpets by leaving of
chewing tobacco during service.

Cl,risa,,aas In AUSTIN.

A good many people were in the city
on Christmas Day, and considerable
business was done among the merchants
and grocery keepers. Taking all things
into consideration it was quite an orderly
day. In the evening, however, a few
had overloaded themselves with double
rations of Alcohol, and were noisy but
We hear Of no extraordinary fcats ac-
complished by these interesting indi'
viduals, save to expcnd their voice on
the night air, probably more to satisfy
themselves that they could make a
noise, if they only undertook it. We
acknowledge that thcy give evidences
of their ability in that line. Two or
three young men did themselves justice,
by running up Main street, upsett'ng
dry goods boxes, yelling and taking
the trouble to plaster few signs. 1t
showed the metal Of the youngsters
that they were smart and active, and
could just jump over nine rail fence,
without half an effort. But then it was
Christmas, and they had right to do
as they pleased no matter, at whose ex-
penso, and to take liberties on such a
day is no sin, thought they, which Of
couyse, VIC must all overlook.
Most of tho churches had had . meet
ing of some sort the night previous, and
made glad the hearts Of the children, by
showering upon them presents suitable
to their views. .....
The Episcopalians treated their Sun
day School to a handsome lot of pres
ents. The tree was brim-f2ll of all
sorts Of nic-nacs'
Turkeys, as matter Of course, had
been done away, without number. dur
ing the day, and around the board, no
doubt, many pleasant reunions aud
home-talks were had, delightful, and
full of merrimcnt, as we'll as doing
ample justice to the larder before them.
