CHRISTMAS. Christmas has come and gone,
and its incidents been added to the many that
crowd the past. lis happy reunions, friendly
greetings aud presents are now garnered among
the stores of memory, and will mar the future
by unsatis6ed loneiogs for their rcturn The
two days Of holiday were spent in this city as
quietly, probably, as in any place of the same
size in the country, aud with as much erjoy-
ment. All the Sunday Schools bad their cello
bratiuns and all the scholars received their
gifts. The Catholic and Episcopal Churches
were beautifully dressed, and on Christmas day
all the churches open were attended by large
congregations. Yesterday was observed as the
secular holiday, and nearly all the places Of
business, except the confectioners' shops. were
closed, and King street was crowded during
the whole day by NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Of
whom had so much Christmas 10 their bones
that their muscles could not control them.
There was not as much powder exploded as
usual and not a single accident has been
reported.

Strange and creditable to our common
nature was the effect of a simple black
board carried down Broadway yesterday
morning by two urchins; for upon it was
written, as revelation, "Let US be kind
to each other" Old men, whose eyes
had not known tear for many, many
year, sobbed aloud, and instantly deter
mined that, from that very hour, they
would lead new life-a life of self-sacri-
lce and love. Young men, fastening
with terrible swiftness to the counting
houses of their employers, there to spend
the day in reckless addition and subtrac-
tion, paused for moment and dashed the
moisture from their eyes, as the thought
of the white cottage and yellow stoop of
childhood came back to them, softening
and purifying their nature. The middle
aged saw the black board and the boys
they once were boys-and turned bitterly
into doorways and sobbed as if their hearts
would break. Who can tell how much
good that simple black board may have
accomplished All ! that black boards are
so short and life so long !-New Korh
World July the 9th.

I,nI GROWING OLD.

My days pass pleasantly away,
My nights are blessed with sweetest Sleep
feel no symptom of decay,
have no cause to mourn or weep;
Ny friends are impotent and shy,
My friends are neither false nor cold !;
Aud yet of late often sigh
I'm growing old
Ny growing talk of olden times,
Ny growing thirst for early news,
My growing apathy to rhymes,
My growing love of easy shoes,
My growing hate of crowds and noise,
My growing fear of catching cold,
All tell me, in the plainest voice
I'm growing old
Pm growing fonder OF my staff,
Pm growing DINNER in the eyes,
I'm growing fiin,er in my laugh,
I'm growing deeper in my signs,
Pm growing careless of my dress,
Pm growing frugal of my gold,
Pm growing wise, Pm growing-yes-
I'm growing old
] feel it in my changing taste,
lssee il in my changing hair,
l,see itin myigrowing waist,
sec it in my growing heir;
A thousand hlnts proclaim the truth,
As plain as ever truth was told,
That even in my haunted youth
I'm growing old
All me! my very laurels breathe
The tale in my reluctant ear;
And every boon the hours bequeath
But makes me debtor to the years;
Fen flattery's honeyed words declare
The secrets she would fail withhold
And tell me in GLOW young you are ~
I'm growing old
+ Thanks for the years whose rapid fight
My sombre muse too gladly sings
Thanks for the CLEAN OF go, den light
That tint the darkness of their wings;
The light that beams from out the sky,
Those heavenly mansions to unfold,
Where all are blest and none shall sigh
I'm growing old.
