CHRISTINA

We wish our readers, one and all,
a merry CHRISTMAS For ages the
people have observed this period of
time as holiday, devoted to good
cheer. There is no reason why the
brow of care should not be relaxed
for one week in the year, and the
heart given up to kindly feelings
Human nature requires to be some
times unbent, like the bow, iii order
to recover its spent elasticity and
wasted energies; and no mode ofre-
covery is so certain as that of a
hearty participation in the innocent
mirth and pleasures of the holidays.
The birth of the Prince of Peace and
the King of Mercy and Love, may
we'll be kept as peculiar period of
gladness. The old idea that mans
author required tue heightened face
and the gloomy cowl is not in har-
mony with the conception of the
Merciful and Good God, who has
impaired to human nature so many
elements of instructive mirth, fun
and joy. These are now the days OF
childhood's blessed dreams of a hap,
piness too great for expression. The
little "toddling wee thing" and the
boy and girl have learned of the an
uual visit of Santa Claus, and in the
sincere belief of the myth there are
oceans of transporting happiness
We sometimes almost regret that
the spread of knowledge has extiu-
guished this and other old beliefs,
which charmed and electrified SO
many hnman hearts in other ages.
Let the children romp, and the
young folks-man and maiden
have their enjoyments in the parties
and the dance; this tleeting life has
need of hours that are bright with
the morning glow and splendor OF
joy-the joy which arises from
friendship and the kindling beams
of fun. Even the old may, upon
the opening of the days set apart to
recreation and amusement, clear the
brow, like aged winter at the song
of the earliest bird of spring.
Again we wish our readers and their
families a "merry Christmasw

Hon. James Jeffries, Representa-
tive elect from Rapides, says:
"I think the best the Legislature
can do for the people, is to call a
Convention, and adjourn at the
earliest possible day"
We are a firm believer in the faith
of him who proclaimed long ago,
that "the world is governed too
much" The country is legislated
to death. A great and growing evil
with which much enduring Amer
lean public is afflicted, is super
abundance of legislation. Laws are
SO continually ground out that it is
almost impossible for the average
citizen to keep pace with them. No
wonder there is so much litigation,
and so many lawyers find a fruitful
field in wrangling over and ex,
pounding them. Indeed laws, in
these days are so continuously made
and unmade that it is life's work
of strict attention to keep up with
them. Old laws which, perhaps,
heve not been in existence long
enough to to be practically tested,
are wiped from the statute books
and new ones substituted; or they
are SO amended that their very faith
ers would not know them. But like
Othello, the politicians occupation
would be gone if he should be de-
barred these frequent opportunities
of indulging in long-winded haran-

GLENN's SULPHUR Soar, the ruling speci-
fc for disease, irritation and abrasions of
the skin, and most salutary beautifer of
the complexion. This admirable article is
an inexpensive substitute for sulphur baths,
and is equally as effective in banisbing
cutaneous maladies, and relieving the
paugs of rhematism and govt. Redness
and roughness, tan, freckles, pimples, and
indeed every imperfection of the cuticle is
entirely removed by it. 1t is avouched,
by ladies who have used, to be the mos
effective means of clarifying and softening
the skin that they have ever employed; its
health promoting properties are widely
recognized by medical men. and evidence
in its behalf, emenating from other and
equally respectable sources, precludes any
reasonable doubt as to the genuineuess of
its claims to public confidence. Clothing
and linen from the sick room are disinfect-
ed by 1t, and it prevents contagion when
| the danger of obnoxious disease has been
incurred by contact. Sores and ulcers,
that resist the operation of salyes and To-
tions, are healed by it, and it soon relieves
the swelling and pain caused by bruises
and sprains. The opening of the pores,
resulting from the wholesome stimulation
of the superficial blood vessels that it pro-
duces, is the effect best calculated to ease
the circulation when overheated. and carry

A Manifest Absurdity.

1t is manifestly absurd to claim for mere
stimulant, tonic and adulterative properties.
Yet this is what is daily done by the ven,
doris of cheap local bitters, colored to make
them look attractive, aud agreeably flavor
ed, but the alcoholic basis of which is Of
the vilest and most hurtful description.
The transcendend success of Hostetter s
Stomach Bitters. the leading Alternative
tonic of the United States, has induced
many of these compounders of drains in
disguise, to attempt the counterfeiting Of
this standard medicine, but their efforts
have never proved successful on large
scale. and they have themselves in many
instances VIGOROUSLY come to grief,n
The genuine Bitters have, indeed, spiri.
tuous basis, but they are emphatically q
medicine, since their botonic ingredients
are signally efficacious in overcoming and
preventing chilIs and fever, dyspepsia, liver
complaint. constipation, and many other
disorders.

him the favorable regard and personal
esteem Of the entire Bar of this county.
The assemblage was at the. residence
Of Z. M. Osborn, Esq, and nearly every
member of the bar in the county was
present. The agreeable social intercourse
which followed, aud the elegant hospital
tiles of the evening, were rendered all the
more pleasing and acceptable by the easy
and graceful reception extended the guests
by Mrs. Osborn and her accomplished
daughter. Prominent among those present
was Judge Wilkinson, of Chicago, who
was long and honorably connected with the
Rock Island Bar, and whose "reminiscences
OF the olden time and incidents of early
practice in this state were characteristicaIly
humorous and entertaining.
