ut d the good St Nicholas he repli-
ed you know you told me that We
must believe where we can't understand"
The conversation was here interrupted
BY the arrival OF three other sleds laden
with wood, which, having left their con-
tents In the widows yard, they started
without % much as notifying her OF their
presence. The boy referred 10 this as an.
other evidence Of The favor Of St. Nlcho.
las, while his Grandma, not wishing 10
diSsipate ILLS happy illusion, had her own
thoughts.
The snow which had continued 10 fall
all day, ceased as evening drew near,
leaving the sky overcast with dark leaden
clouds, while . keen, cutting wind blew
down from the northwest.
The highway, or the "blg road" as It
was called, was made jubllant by the
jingling Of sleigh bells, and the merry
voice Of the youngsters returning from
B, A sleigh with two persons In
II diverged from the road, and stopped at
the widows gate. A young lady jumped
out on the rodden snow, and receiving
sundry bundles Of dry goods from her
companion, FASTENED 10 the widows door,
"MlS. Waltham," she said, "here are
some packages which Mr.. s., in
B, requested me to leave with you.
He said to tell you that they were pres.
ent from st. Nicholas. That Is all know
about them. Good morning, the sleigh Is
waiting for me-"
Could you but have seen Edgar at that
time, seated in q corner, with crutches by
his side, the light Of q cheerful fire shin.
Ing on his face, disclosing the unutterable
delight which seemed to animate his
whole being, arising from the fact that
he had been the means of giving his
Grandma such q glorious surprise His
countenance at that time was all trust,
and hope, and Joy, and he seemed 10
want only wings 10 fly away.
The bundles were opened and found to
contain every article Of clothing, both for
the widow and her protege, necessary for
the winter. In the last parcel were a few
lines 10 the boy, which read:
"MAsTRR EDGAR: II anything more Is
necessary to your comfort, address me as
before. To save your Grandma SO much
patching, l send you coat, vest, pants,
shoes and stockings. Il any Of these
articles do not fit, l have made arrange
ments with MIR. s., In B., where
you can have them exchanged.
ST. NICHOLAS.
There were happy hearts that night in
that humble dwelling, and Gods bless
ing was earnestly invoked on the good,
but unknown St. Nicholas.
When Mr.: Nichols retired 10 rest, he
realized that ut Is more blessed to give
than 10 receive" and what 1t Is to make
the widows heart sing with JOY"
Reader, perhaps you have your thous-
ands invested in banks, bonds, aud other
securities, while the suffering, deserving
poor are all around you. Open your
heart, and open your hand to relieve their
wants, and you will find gold will pur.
chase peace with which you will be IN.
willing to part Tor all the gems Of tho
mountains"
Our story must close here, though to
many OF our readers, the most interesting
part OF II must remain untold. We had
intended speaking Of the return of James
Waltham, explaining the mystery of his
sudden disappearance, the change In the
widows fortunes, but space iorblds.

Charleston.

Sam. Woods Goes TO the Rescue of
Charleston.
To the Editors OF the IntellIgeneCr:
1t will interest some Of your readers to
know that the rebel Demagorgon (query,
demagogue) Of this section-seli.ac-
credited chief dcc0ucheuT OF the late con-
ventional abortion, the new constitution,
as well as ex.member Of the Richmond
Convention OF 1851, Sam Woods, started
this morning for Charleston to take charge
OF the legislation Of West Virginia,
whereat there Is great rejoicing at this
moment throughout the "Rebel Ring
dom" Of Barbour county. 1t is the
morning gossip, and boast here among
the initiated Of the fraternity, that things
will now go right in the legislative body.
You must know that our people, as a
mass, are decidedly in favor OF what is
known as the wheeling proposition" in
regard to the removal Of the State Capital.
L suits their views, in the present
exigency, both as to an economical ad.
ministration Of State affairs, and as to a
practical contact always desirable) with
the legislative body to accept the liberal
offer rendered them from the commercial
and manufacturing emporium of the
State. In accordance with their views
as in duty bound, Mr.. Bradford, their
delegate, as well as Mr.. Cofran, who also
represents them in the Legislature, voted
in the lower House for the removal, as
indicated.
This arrangement, however, does not
suit the Trinity" Of the "Rebel ring"
down here; and the matter Is to be taken
in hand, and corrective applied, through
the agency Of the same Sam, who, In
1851, was elected by 3O5 majority as
Union man trem this county, to the afore.
said Richmond Convention, over Mr..
Bradford as an avowed seccssionist; Sc.
curing such majority, however, by ante.
cedently pledging himself to the same re.
bellion, to betray his Union constituents
in said Convention; as to which, the his.
tory Of those times and subsequent hap.
penings furnish more full exposition. It
remains TO be seen how the Hon. G. D..
Camden, ]. N. Bennett, G. A. Blakemore
and ]. L. Hall, Senators of the legal pro.
iession, whose sympathies are with the
Calhoun Democracy, with Others Of that
ilk, will act In these premises, undei the
coDjuncture and eminent domination Of
this rebel alien Sam. But suppose we
shall soon see. will again report to
your readers shortly.

New York Dry Goods Market.

New YORK, December 24.-Business
exceedingly quiet in all departments to.
day, and a holiday tone pervades the
market. Cotton goods have lost none oil
their irmness, and stocks remain very
light in first hands. Heavy standard and
fine brown sheetings are well sold up by
agents. Ticks, stripes and denims are in
fair jobbing request. Woolens continue
very quiet for all descriptions, but prices
are unchanged and firm. Foreign goods
ore dull, except styles adapted to holiday
purposes, which are quite active. Black
alpacas and mohairs continue In favor
and at very firm prices.

Ten Becauses.-A hundred reasons
might be given why Lyons Katharion
should be used by every intelligent hu.
man being in preference to every other
preparation for the hair, but ten will
suffice. Here they are: Because 1t nour.
ishes the tibres, multipnes them and
makes them grow; because 1t thus pre-.
vents them from whitening and bleach.
Ing; because It removes the scurf and
dandruf which choke them as tares
choke the golden grain; because 1t keeps
the scalp cool and prevents eruptions; be-.
cause 1t renders the hair as lustrous as
satin; because 1t makes 1t plant and
elastic; because it Is q fragrant and de.
lightiul dressing; because II does not soil
the pillow, the cap or the hat; because It
Is without rivalln cheapness, and be.
cause no other article sold for tho same
purpose, in this or any other country,
possesses all or even one half OF these in.
valuable properties.

From To-Day
TIM KDYSER'S NOSE.


By MAX AbELEB.
Tim Keyser lived in phenixVille;
lie had monstrous nose,
Which was great deal reddef than
The very reddest rose,
And was completely capable
or most terrific blows.
lie wandered down one Christmas day
To skate upon the creek,
And there upon the smoOthest Ice,
he slid around 60 quick
That people were amazed to see
Him do 1t up 80 click.
The exercise excited thirst;
And so, to yet q drink,
lie cut an opening in the Ice
Andlay down on the brink.
lie said, all dip my lips right In
And suck up, think"
And while bis nose was thus Immersed
Six inches In the stream,
4 very hungry plckerel was
Attracted by Its CLEAN,
And darling up he gave snap,
And Keyser gave scream.
Tim Keyses was well assured
He had = splendid bite.
Topull his victim up he jelked
And tugged with al his might;
But that disgusting plckerel had
The better Of the hght.
And Just as Mr.. Keyser thought.
His nose was cut 10 two,
The pIckerel gave his tall twist
And pulled Tim EeysGr through,
And he was sending through the waves
The dist thing that he knew.
Then backward swan that savage Gsh
With SwiftnesS towards Its nest,
SUI chewing Mr.. KeySers nose;
While Mr.. Keyser guessed
Whatsort Of policy would suit
His circumstances best.
Just then his nose was tlckled with
A spear Of grass close by,
Then came an &wful eneezG, which Knocked
The piekerel into pt,
And blew It's bones, the ice and waves
Two hundred feet on high!
Tim Keyser swan up TO the top
A breath oil air TO take,
And finding broken Ice, he hooked
His nose upon cake,
And glorIed Ina nose which could
Such conclusion make.
And thus he driftGd slowly on
Until he reached the shore;
And creeping out all dripping wet,
Heycry rouudly swore
To use that crimson nose 90 bait
For plckGsel no more.
His Christmas turkey on that day
lie tackled with q vim,
And thanked his stars, as, Ehudderlrg,
he thought upon his swim,
That that wild plckeTel had not
Spent Christmas eating him,
