by Boss Tweed that Democrat must support any any
Democrat who was nominated, no matter "h'' 'no

and pleasure riding, visiting, etc., were
'ndu| ged in to large extent. One the
most numerously attended private gath
erinss was the party ut the residence
of F. W. Hovt, ESQ.,, where there was
a general indulgence in fun, and all
who participated speak of it rs an es-
pesial|y pleasant OCCASION. One pleas
ant feature of this Christmas time has
been the unusually prevalent charity,
which has contributed so quietly and
unostentatiou>ly to insure /. share of
enjoyment to those who were unable to
procure for themselves such things as
tend to make the occasion pleasant.
In the Sunday Schools the presents
seem to have fallen to those who NEST
needed them, and we have ha,rd of
several instances Of valuable gifts reacl-
ing people who did not expect them and
who have no is'e:, whence they came.
Taking everything into consideration,
we cannot avoid thinking that Red Wing
spent its Christmas appropriately and
happily. If it had no grand demon
STATIONS, it escaped the resultant ex-
element, headaches. etc., and may look
forward with satisfaction for Il return
of this festival.
