CHRISTMAS SENTIMENT.

Saws writer in the Yonkers Gazette !:
There is so much about Christmas that
savors of harmony, concord, peace-a peace
that means not merely the cessation of hos
tilities between conflicting interests in our so.
cial world, but that serener, broader deeper
peace which unites man to man by all the
ties of friendly intercourse which proceed out
of an universal desire to make Christmas q
bright spot among the fading memories of the
wear. like the sentiment the more, because
it pervades every community and brings to
view the better side of every mans character.
Not scrooge nor Gradgrind on earth can
wholly steel himself against its humanizing
influence, and though the closing of the day
may find no charity dispensed or gladness
awakened, yet it will at least surely find the
edge of his habitual severity blunted. If
there is ever "peace on earth," in its fullest
sense, it is on Christmas. do not believe
that custom and usage alone have made the
modern anniversary day of the SavDurs ma.
tivity one of rejoicing; it has ever occurred
to me that since first the glad tidings went
out from Bethlehem the event has left its i'm
press on each succeeding generation, and that
each recurring "happy morn" has found the
chord of human sympathy and love respon'
sive to the mystic glow. IT this were not so
I think we should see less hand-shaking and
cordial greetings than we do now, more
limited sphere of action for the aims gather
er, fewer visits from Santa Claus" fewer
Christmas tree festivals, listen to poorer and
less exciting homely old stories Of legendary
lore, hear less caroling of christians awake, y
find sparser harvest of mistletoe, and we
would have far more contracted views Of our
life.cloud's silver lining. And then, too, |
like the methods we have taken as a nation
to show our appreciation Of that day. They
are beautiful ; they are just. They help us
to consecrate our lives and to shape them in
the channel that is best suited to their moral
development. Where thoughts and motives
are pure and simple, we may look for good
deeds. Where the observance of Christmas
is made known through benevolent acts, kind
words to the distressed, family gatherings,
happy children and the distribution of gifts,
whether the celebration be to honor the day
for the days sake or not, the occasion is one
that we should be truly thankful for. This
world of ours is bettered by Christmas, and
every one of us should help to make it mem
orable.

par The Primitive Baptists make it q rule
to expel member from the church who takes
advantage of relief law or refuses to pay
a debt. A few months since, one of this
class-a pretty rough looking case-entered
an Athens, Georgia, store, and wanted credit
for few goods until he could sell bis cotton.
Not knowing his customer, the merchant re-
fused, but about this time well known elder
of the church entered, and, tapping the farm
er on the shoulder, asked: .
"How are you, Brother Frank?"
"Is that gentleman a member of your
church, Uncle D ?" asked the tradesman.
"Oh! yes, and.a good one" was the reply.
"Well, then, my friend" continued the
dealer, "go through the house, from cellar to
garret, and pick out what you want. will
sell you the whole establishment, clerks and
all, on credit, with only your religion as secu-
rity."
It turned out that the customer was one of
the solid men of Northeast Georgia.

The SAILOR AND THE W1Dow.-Nearly
half a century ago, when coach ran daily
between Glasgow and Greenock, by Paisley,
one forenoon, when little past Bishopton, a
lady in the coach noticed boy walking bare.
footed, seemingly tired, and struggling with
tender feet. She desired the coachman to
take him up and give him seat, and she
would pay for it. When they arrived at the
inn in Greenock, she inquired of the boy
what was his object in coming up there. He
said he wished to be sailor, and hoped some
of the captains would engage him. She gave
him a half crown, wished him success, and
charged him to behave we'll. -.
Twenty years after this, the coach was re-
turning to Glasgow in the afternoon, on the
same road When near Bishopton, sea cap
tain observed an old widow lady on the road,
walking very slowly, fatigued and weary. He
ordered the coachman to put her in the coach,
as there was an empty seat, and he would pay
for her. Immediately after, when changing
horses at Bishopton, the passengers were saun.
tering about, except the captain and the old
lady, who remained in the coach. The lady
thanked him for his kindly feeling toward
her. as she was now unable to pay for seat
He said "He had always had sympathy for
weary pedestrians, since he himself was in
that state when boy, twenty years ago, near
this very place, when tender hearted lady
ordered the coachman to take him up, and
paid for his seat"
"Well do remember that incident" said
she. II am that lady, but my lot in life is
changed. vas then independent. Now
am reduced to poverty, by the doings Of a
prodigal son."
"How happy am ]" said the captain, ''that
| have been successful in my enterprise, and
am returning home to live on my fortune
and from this day I shall bind myself and
heirs to supply you with twenty-five pounds
per annum till your death.

The GRAVE OF CoLUMBUs.-Itis is general
ly supposed that the bones of Christopher
Columbus, the great explorer, are at Havana,
in the island Of Cuba. But recent investiga-
tions have brought to light the fact that it
was Columbus son who was removed there.
Let US 60 back to the FIRST resting place Of
Columbus, for death did not end his voyages.
He died in 1906 in Valladolid, north.central
part of Spain, where he was buried. Then
he was removed further south to Seville, and
handsome monument erected by Ferdinand
and Isabella. Columbus had made request
in his will that he should be buried in his be-
loved Hispaniola and now this idea was
brought forward and his remains deposited in
the cathedral of Santo Domingo, Hayti.
Here also his son Diego, and grandson Luis
we're inferred. At the close of the war be-
tween France and Spain, in 1895, it was stip'
ulated that Spain should cede to the French
"all the Spanish part of the island of Santo
Domingo" or Hayti Accordingly, Colum-
bus was once more-as then thought-ex.
humed and conveyed to Havana with, great
pomp and ceremony. In 1877 while men
were working in the cathedral of San Domin.

human remains; on the cover under the dust
of three hundred years, were found the words,

toval Colon. Every one who was present &C.
cepted this proof that the bod, # the great
discoverer had not been taken away to Hav
ana, but was before their eyes, and Diegos
had been removed by mistake. So, now,
the matter rests in this way. Learned schol-
ars are thinking of erecting monument
which should belong to the world, and not
limited to the qualification of local or nation.
al pride. But such things move slowly, and
perhaps it will never be accomplished.

p@r The Georgia Railroad Commission ha,
issued circular ordering all tho principal
railroads in the State to reduce the price of
6rst-class passenger tickets to three cents a
mile. Smaller roads on which there is but
little travel are allowed to charge four and
five cents. Reduced fares induce increased
travel, and it is possible that the revenue at
three cents will be larger than realized from
the higher rates. The Georgia Commission
is heartily supported by the State, and it has
accomplished much good. Threa members,
one railroad man, comprise it.

plant in South Florida seems to be now es
