PLACES TO BUY YOUR CHRIST
MAS PRESENTS.

I've just and fair and impartial and uni
versal regarding the claims of our vari
GUS patrons to n share Of the custom
which has special reference to the holi-
days But we are half afraid that if We
make individual mention somebody will
get overlooked, and that among those
whom we do mention, this one will feel
aggrieved because his name comes
second to another, and that one will feel
the panGs Of sighted consequence if We
give him less space than his neighbor
Maybe we'd better say nothing at all il
the puffy way; but We don't relish the
notion of letting Christmas Eve go by
without making some sort Of a.prescnt to
our old time, generous and ever con
slant business patrons. We make the
venture then, agreeing, as it We're, that
there shall be no heart aches ard gium
bles if we accidentally omit the names of
Some who have as god : right as any to
be mentioned. The more special ana
obvious presont-selling places have been
pretty efiectually pulled by Us already,
and We will let them come in, If at all.

speaking OF serving, reminds Us Of the

ding, and So on and 50 forth. These
comestibles In their tarn give us mind
ing of the places where those Christmas
fares are kept and dispensed: and 50 we
think of the generous bounty OF the
Fountain Restaurant kept by Our Stir
ring friend, Van Red; If the Baltimore
Eating House where anything ard every
thing as good as ever vas concocted IN
the Monumental City is regularly placed
before the eXpectant guest; of the Del
monieo and its lavisily furnished larder;
Of the sumptuoua catering by our indus
tyious and deserving friend Henry
kaiser; and OF the far-famed capacities
Of risbie's half classical corner. The
ba .heioric stomach or the less lonely
gasironomy of the domestic hearth and
home cannot find transient and ready
prepared sustenance in better sort or on
better terms than at either of these
places OF entertainment. Beyond these
open door-ed establishments are our cX-
cellent tayerns, (hotel is no name for
place where Christmas is kept.) Good
cheer beams as by the elusive warmth
of til" very sun Of entertainment from
the moment one enters the hCspltao.e
door of tn St. Charles and gets e
glimpse OF the ever genial and ampllhCd
Tutl and not less is this inviting aud
assuring sensation experienced h the
Traveller or belated cit. who inyades the
precincts of the stately 0rmsty House
and encounters in the midst Of his crea-
ture comforts and his wealth Of good
cheer, our rotUnd friend Fryer as broad
OF glrth and capaclous of the needs and
duties of hospitality as an actual friar Of
the olden time in his native home of
merry England. Progressing further on,
the stroller in the pensive field must not
forget the long established Adams House
with its plentitude of comforts; nor Yet
the Corbett House with its vast capaci-
ties for cheering the inner and resting
the outer man. Some special and
peculiar inclinings will take the
epicurean to the Warm Springs |
