Christmas Trees.-The erowuing features
OF the holidays in this place, for both old and
young, were the Christmas Trees and exercises
of the Sabbath Schools In German and English
N. E. Churches.
The Germtu Church, Rev. JoHS G. EdLB
pastor, with JoHN YEAGER as local preacher,
has Q membership of about75 persons, aud the
Sabbath School numbers about 100 scholars,
under the superintendency of Mr. JoHS EBERLY.
Their entertainment was given on Christmas
night and the house would not hold all in attend
ance. The decorations were profuse and the
Christmas Tree was loaded with presents for
the children. The music, under the supervisor
of Mrs F. YEAGER, was well executed and the
recitations and othor exercises met with the ap
probation Of perents who went home well pleas
ed with the progress their children have made
in this school.
The English Church held their exercises on
Tuesday evening. and many went away unable
to gain admit'ancs. The decorative committee
performed their part with!excellent taste. Two
fullgrown Christmas Trees reaching near to
the ceiling was loaded with the choicest fruits
from Santa Claus store hous', from which both
old aud young were bountifully supplied. One
Of the most pleasing scenes was the "Stnr OF
Betheham," illuminated, which. after all the
letteIs had been placed upon it, furnished the
pleasing motto, "Peace on earth, good will to
men,"
On Wednesday evening following the exer-
cises at the two churches, Fort Meigs Division,
s. of T. gave an Oyster Supper and Musical
entertainment at their Hall, whc was not large
ly attended on account of the extreme cold
weather. Nevertheless the occasion was q
pleasant one for those present

Mr.. EDITOR: Were you not unnecessarily
excited some two weeks ago over that glove mat
ter that appeared in the JoUKNAL9 That was a
very mild case compared with one thathas come
under my notice. AT the time Of the Masonic
Ball last year one of our over nice ladies was
unsuccessful in securing pair of gloves good
enough in Perrysburg, and went to one of our
merchants and requested him to go to certain
store in Toledo where'he would find just such a
glove as was wanted. The request was com
piled with, and 50 so, at wholesale price, was
paid for an "elegant" pair. which would last
one evening provided they did not get soiled.
Now Mr.. editor don't allow this to deter you
from getting married, because there are cheaper
kids.
P. s. almost forgot to mention the fact
that our merchant has not received his pay for
the gloves yet. PAUL Pay.

The One Thing Needfin

We repeat what we have
often said before; says n
contemporary, that the Demo.
Gratis Of Ohio will never win n
permanent, victory until they
learn, and practice upon the
knowledge, the necessity Of
havinga we'll patgoni4ed and
more widely circulated press.
As long as Democratic COM
mdhities continue to give a
better support to the. opposition
press than to- TO their party
organs; and Radical journals
are allowed TO circulate in the
proportion Of ten to one Demo
cratic, The current Of public
sentiment will always be i"
favor Of that organization
Among the. many attempts to
explain away the disasters to
the Democratic cause, this,
The most vital reason of all, is
strangely overlooked. When
Democrats once wake mp to
the importahce or placing
their papers on as healthy a
basis as those Of the enemy, and
of giving them as wide circn'
lation, they may expect to
become The predominant
power, and not before. Let
those who think this Il a
matter of little Importance
step into any news stand, and
ascertain for themselves the
proportion of journals that are
sold representing the princi-
pies of The two parties. After
the inquiry, instead of being
surprised at Radical victories
they will be more likely tc
wonder that the Democracy
are even able to keep up theiI
organization. -
