POLITICAL.

Judge Bond from Colorado says Mr. Blaine
leads in the affections Of republicans in that quar-
ter, and Mr.. Bristow comes next.
The Philadelphia Inquirer regards 'the slight
put upon Gen. Banks as the worst exhibit made
by Speaker Kerr.
Governor Hendricks Of Indiana, has accepted
an invitation to deliver the opening address of the
Southern States Agricultural and Industrial Ex-
position at New Orleans on February &c next.
The editor of the Rural New Yorker writes an
open letter to Alex. II. Stephens, suggesting the
enfranchisement of Southern white women to off
set the negro vote. The Southern white men
don't seem to be so much troubled by negro vot-
ing See Mississippi election.
The democratic journals have said very little
about the time and place for holding the national
party convention, yet there seems to be general
agreement that the date should be as late as posi-
bic, in order that any false move of their oppo-
nents may be taken advantage of.
If Speaker Kerr had been especially DESTROYS of
teaching Independent Liberals, and all other unat-
tached people of that kind to 90 back to their own
place. he could scarcely nave devised better plan
than he fell upon in the appointment of some of
his committees Stumbling Mr.. Chittenden, Gen.
Banks and Others is likely to be construed as a
good indication that the democratic party wants
no aid from the people who do not run with the
machine. "-Tribuhe.

Christmas" I'm Halio,veIl.

Members Of the Catholic church and society IN
this city, had Christmas festival at MON Hal.
on Friday evening. The hall was tastefully trim
med with evergreens. and large Christmas tree
brilliantly illuminated, occupied prominent posi-
ton in the centre, loaded with presents for all the
children, of young and older growth. All seemed
to enjoy the occasion in most happy manner es-
peclally when "Old Santa Claus" dispensed his
bounties with liberal hand.
Christmas services were held by the Episcopal
Society in their church usual, to the profit and
enjoyment no doubt of old and young.
At the Baptist vestry entertainment for the
children of the Sabbath school and society was
provided on Friday evening. There was large
attendance on the occasion. Refreshments were
served uusparingly.
Our Methodist friends also enjoyed an agreea-
BILE festival on Friday evening; and the Universe
list society and Classical School, well as numer-
Gus families observed the occasion with becoming
interest.
On Saturday evening the children connected
with the industrial School for Girls were made
happy by the kind remembrances offriends in this
city, Augusta and other localities. Presents OF
value and in abundance were provided for each OF
the girls; and more interesting occasion IL sell
dom enjoyed.
At the close of the morning service on sabbath
last, Rev. Mr.. McCully, pastor of the Congrega-
tional church in this city, rendered his resignation
The resignation was not accepted, and a commit
tee was appointed to confer with him with view
to its withdrawal, ana report at subsequent meet
ing. Mr.. McCully has labored so long and faith
fully in this city that he has endeared himself not
only to his own church and society, but to the
community generally; and should he leave for
wider field Of usefulness, he will bear with him
the highest regards Of all who appreciate unos-
tentatious piety and zeal tempered with prudence,
together with all those rare qualities that go to
make up the true christian gentleman.
Mr.. George NJ. johnson and wife, of New York
city, are spending the holidays with their parents,
relatives and friends in this city and vicinity.
Those who desire to aid in securing the contin-
nation of gas in our city, should be willing to do
something in that direction by patronizng the
company to an extent more or less liberal. 1t
would be public calamity to have the manufac-
ture discontinued, as it must inevitably be, with
out more general and generous consumption.
Rev. Mr.. Newcombe preached in the South
Congregational church on Sabbath morning, and
Rev. Mr.. McCully in the Baptist church in the
afternoon, on exchange.
