THE CHRISTMAS SEAsoN-Shop At
traetions.-The beautiful weather Of
Friday and Saturday influenced the
Christmas trade last week favorably,
despite the complaint of hard times
and depression in business generally.
The streets and stores were crowded,
and everybody seemed to be burdened
with holiday goods. Many Of the re-
tail stores, notably the toy shops, are
decorated and present destinations ire
sistible to the Juvenile mind, and, be-
sides, afford refreshing sights to chill
dreD of much larger growth. Some OF
these bazaars are bewildering in the
great variety and immense numbers OF
the attractions displayed. Besides the
thousands of dolls there are mechanical
moving toys, such as an elephant with a
car on his back, man on velocipede,
a miniature steamboat, patentspanking
school teacher, an old lady that takes
snuff, the dancing darkies, the circus
rider, a kicking, crying baby in car,
riage, and tiny ball rooms
with couples walking. Fol
boys there are tool chests, toy manageries
magi, lanterns, magic bank that makes
one penny seem ftty-a truly American
invention-jumping -jacks in spring boxe;
skates; sleds, and many more. Building
blocks, puzzles, historical panoramic
views and toy globes are among the in
structive articles. For the Christina:
tree there is the snow-clad veteran SAINTS
Claus, with his pack, globes, fruits, anc
flowers of colored glass, tin rofectors, ano
grotesque figures on rubber string, clowns
with caps and bells, funny little mer
that spring up and down, and other ar
ticles without number.
These are among the attractions o
Christmas goods temptingly displayed
There are others of more costly and ar
tistic character to be found in the jewel
ers' establishments, among the fame.
goods dealers, and in all branches of tn
retail trade. 1t is probable we won
have so much "explosiveness" this season
as heretofore, owing to the resolution
passed by the Council at recent meetn:
lnstructing the Chief Of Police to entorc
the ordinance in regard to the firing o
pistols, firearms, &c, within the city.

his position was construed by many
Republicans, who could understand
nothing in politics that did not SAVIOR
of partisanship and selfshness, as be-
ing a weakening on the part of a man
who acted in the opposition ranks,
and was supported by them. Though
uniform courtesy has characterized his
relations with the President. he has
just shown that he can be severe as
well as mild, and that he can admins
ter rebuke without fear whenever it
becomes his clear duty to do so. His
letter to the President regarding the
instructions sent by Attorney General
Williams to the Marshal of the East
ern Virginia District, is sharp, digni-
fed and unequivocal. He informs
Gen. Grant, that he wishes to cult
vate cordial relations with the FEEDER
al Government in all its departments,
but he shall oppose with all the Con
sttutional means at his command
such acts of invasion of the rights Of
the States and the liberties of the peo.
pie as the Acknowledgement threaten
ed in the Petersburg case. He gives
the President some emphatic instruc-
tons in regard to State rights that
the latter seems to have forgotten, and
it is to be hoped that he has discour-
aged any further invasion ofthe rights
and privileges of his dominion, while
his motives will doubtless b. better
understood by designing politicians
hereafter.
