II 10 NO easy matter to separate the
sweet pleasures which cluster about the
merry Christmas time and the sweet
delicsoies and great variety of pretty
toys which crowd the showroom and
sale room Of our frisnd B. Rocco, the
6rst-class confectioner, on the northeast
corner of Main and Adams streets: for
they are linked, as il we're, together, and
come uppermost in the mind every time
one thinks of Christmas tree, hung
with gay and glittering presents, or the
festive sidebosrd. laden with jams, jellies,
tarts, cakes, rsisins, oranges, grapes.
almonds, apples, pears, and pyramids
and towers and castles of sugar as white
as snow. Just now there is no sight so
pleasant as that which may be witnessed
10 Rocco's showroom, on the second
Hoor. Of his establishment, where numbers
Of boys and girls are led by their parents
to examine the almost numberless sorts
of plsythings which have been prepared
for presents. There 10 one corner of the
room may be seen q bright eyed, faxen-
haired little fellow delighted with the
motions Of rocking-horse while in,
another corner perhaps brown-haired,
hazeI-eyed, rosy-cheeked chap is trying
to poke the tiny forefnger Of his right
hand into the painted eyes Of a wooden
dog; and little way from him may be
discerned q lively-eyed, pretty-faced lad
highly amused with the squeakings of a
mock monkey. But the most touching
sight of this extremely joyful exhibition
is to see a charming little girl take a
handsome wax doll in her delicate arms
aud tenderly press it and kiss it; and
nothing is more delightful than to hear
the innocent laughter of the cheerful
cherubs at the queer gaits Of the walking
dolls and the shrill voices Of talking doll
babies. Rocco indeed knows how to
select toys for the Juveniles, and they
are ctOWutug HIS suOWToom hou noiu
ing till night. In the sale-room, on the
first floor, an immense stock of fruits
has been laid in for the Christmas sea
son; and as to candies and pies and
nuts, there is an abundant supply and a
large assortment The window
contains some Of the foest and neatest
and most artistic work in the confec-
tionery line we have seen for long
time; and everything on the shelves and
counters, whether imported or manu-
featured at home. seems to be of the best
quality. Rocco is one of our old, staunch
citizeus, who has been procuring and
making nice things for the people of
Memphis for many years; and because
be understands their tastes and deals
fairly with them, they like his way of
doing bu siness and like to deal with him.

THERE are certain set of men, whose
moral tone of thought and feeling is so
thoroughly debased that they cannot dis
tinguish vice from virtue, or entertain an
idea that modesty exists save in the name.
We were led to this reflection on reading
a paragraph in the appeal this morning,
in which newspaper man, replying to
some one connected with the thester,
who asked him what he thought of the
entertainments said to have replied: ut
only wanted few beer-jerkers 10 make
it almost as good as Boom's," thereby
showing his prediction. The beer, the
whisky, the champagne, we're wanting to
open his eyes to the excellence of per-
Torrance which has receive the highest
praise from the New York press.

condescend to place it in competition

At the great Hebrew Fair, now being

medal for The most popular sewing ma
chine. The friends of the different ma
chimes being anxious that their favorite
should win went to work in good earnest
to procure the highest possible number of
suffrages for their favorite machine. At
ten o'clock the polls closed, when it was
found that the Wheeler Il Wilsoh had
over two to one ahead Of all other ma
chimes, thus securing and adding another
gold medal to the catalogue of prizes it
30 justly merits. 50
