Christmas in Nilbridge.

Mr.. Editor The people of this village
having forgotten the ''hsrd times" were
never more lavish in Christmas Gifts, than
they have been the present week.
The Sunday School connected with the
Christian Church, had their Christmas
Tree Tuesday evening. For seven hours
the gifts came in al the rate of over one
hundred per hour. till there were about $50
presents on the Tree, for 2i0 different per-
sons. Many OF the presents were valuable
and useful. The singing Was good, and
adapted 10 the occasion.
An original paper. read BY one OF our
Sunday School teachers, MIR. J. +. Nc
Donald, OF Colby University, was so full OF
good thoughts appropriately expressed,
that it received the appreciation OF the en-
tire audience.
There were present about 400 people
the church was filed.
On the same evening, there was n Christ
mas Tree at the residence OF one OF our
acknowledgements Wallace, Esq The
gifts were numerous and costly.
On Wednesday evening, happy CON-
paEy of invited guests spent several hours
at the residence of Capt. Gilbert T.. Leigh
ton. In the company were several of our
school teachers-smong them, Mr. De
Laittre of your city, who by the way. is
quite popular as teacher. aud much re-
spected for his gen,leiDanly department.
On the same evening, Mr.. y. B. Dyer
and his good wife, entertained a party OF
fifty. Their Christmas Tree was wei! load
ed with valuable presents. Their spacious
rooms were beautifully decorated, and the
literary exercises heightened the pleasures
Of the occasion. 1t was hsppy company.
Yours. ii. 81. T..

The Hardship of PAYMENT

/ IL always seems to be the easier way 70,
TO pay. IL never is, TO be sure: but the
men who owe and who look upon the yul-
gar transaction OF payment rs n hardship
To be avoided wholly, or 10 some way tenn
pered to their circumstances and feelings,
look upon the avoidance Of their obliga.
lions as the cheapest and easiest way out
OF difficulty. Commercial "smartness" con-
I sists not so much In devisiny means to pay
as in inventing excuses for not paving. Po-
liticsi "smsrness' consists In doing the
same thing on a larger scale: In inven,ing
plausible pretexts upon which communities
and States may stsve of payment entirel,
or make q profitable compromise. The
new National party Is founded upon the as
sumption that a nation can afford To scale
down Its honest obligations aud force a
compromise with its creditors. and suffer
no damage To its credit indeed. that 1t is a
duty IL owes its taxpayers aud citizens To
get rid OF the obligation of pay Msni ia any
way and by any means rather than pay.
terhAps II might with truth be more strong
~ stated, TO Wit, that the fundA me ntal prlu-
clpie OF the party rs that the best and cas-
lest and the wisest way 10 not 10 pay at all.
Tor that Is the real intent AID meaning of
Tue effort FOR tsi money and unlimited
greenbacks. The difference between the
various scaling processes. such as making
the silver dollar of 80 cents legal-tender
for 100. or the inflstioD OF the currency and
consequent dilutioh OF values. and the ab-
solute reputation involved In the fiat mon
ey idea. Is only one of degree. The advo-
Gates OF the various schemes for making
money cheap all agree In the notion that 1t
Is necessary to cheat a little. IL seems "A
necessity OF their nature, and they think
they are doing a very meritorious thing
When they offer compromise TO the hon
est money sentiment IN the scaling pro-
cesses which deirsud the creditor just lit
tie. III you don't let Us cheat the creditor
out OF 10 cents in the dollar by the remone-
tizstion OF silver" says Mr.. Bland. I'VE
will wipe out the whole debt as with a
sponge" And tina, is the tune the new
music is set TO. IF you don't let US cheat
a little, we will get up grand swindle and
never pay cent"
