CHRISTMAS
passed merrily among Weatherlyites gener-
ally. 1t is said that at no previous ami
versary OF Christ's nativity, has there been
in this community SO much merry making
and good-leeling.
THE REFORMED SABBATH SCHOOL
celebrated the event Christmas Eve, and
very delightful time was had. The attend
ancc was large, the music good and the
presents numerous and valuable. A hand
some Christmas tree gayly decked and Santa
Claus, the distributor, drew much attention.
In the
PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
on Christmas afternoon, the exercises were
very enjoyable and consisted of music by
several parties and the school, readings and
recitatiOns, all of which were most happily
rendered. Two Christmas trees very tastly
trimmed and laden with presents were quite
an attractive feature of the evening. Here
also very natural looking Santa Claus had
been improvsed and ocrasioned much mirth
among the juveniles.
THE N. E. CHURCH,
Christmas evening was well filled at admis-
sion fees of 20 cents Tor adults and 10 cents
for children. Here, a beautiful Christmas
service Of a religious character, was well
rendered and interspersed with good read
ings, recitations aud music by the school and
the choir, AT the close of the literary aud
musical exercises sweet meats Rnd peanuts
plucked from the Christmas tree were Law
ishly distributed among the children and
! friends of the school. When we say that all
the entertainments were successes, we but
mildly expresses it. The "Charge Of the
| Light Brigade" by Johnnie Rowland and
/ the "Reprieve" by Miss Mabel Rosenstock
were remarkably well delivered and were
| highly complmented. We are told that
the proceeds of the M. 4. entertainment
amounted 10 about S37 aud of the Presby-
| terian (which was dime entrTtaInment)
about 81, Admission was free in the Re
formed.
The great event OF the week in society
circles here was the marriage OF Mr.. Thos,
| Dunn. Jr., TO Miss Nellie j. the accomplish
ell daughter of our tuwnsman, Capt. Samuel
HaTleman, nn Tuesday last. The numerous
invitations sent out for the occasion were
literally responded to by goodly number
Of guests. The hymenial knot was tied by
the Rev. P. +. Eyer The bridesmaids were
Misses Maria and Lizzie Harleman and the
grOomsmeu, Messrs. 6. W. Harleman aud
Z. W. Dewitt. The happy pair were made
the recipients of numerous and valuable
presents. After partaking Of sumptuou'

An exchange says: Economists tell us
that, within the next twenty years, Ameri-
ca will need fifteen millions of new spin
dies, with accompanying machinery, for
the transformation of the chief product of
Southern agriculture into other commodi-
ties of commerce. Where should these
new spindles be set in operation? The
answer of economy is: Where the trans
formation of the raw material can be eff
fected, and the new commodities be plac-
ed on the best markets, at the least cost.
Obviously, then, the cotton field, the cot
ton mill, and the railway center should be
brought together. The cotton field cam
not be moved from the Southern latitude
Nature has given to the southern one-third
of America, east of the continental back
bone, virtually monopoly of this product
for the world; for, though the climate and
soil of India and portions of Mexico and
South America are adapted TO the cultiva-
tion of cotton, experience has shown that
a new civilization must appear in those
countries before its cultivation can be
successfully introduced. For an indefi-
mite period OF the future, the southern
portion OF America will continue to be the
chief cotton producing region. Why may
It not also be the chiefcotton manufacture
ing region on this continentf Why should
not the fact that nature has given to that
region a monopoly of the cotton growing
industry cause to spring up there the

nature has done so much to create supe-
rior advantages for such enterprises

WHOIs MRS. WINsLOW ?

AS this question is frequently askeda
we will simply say that she is lady who
for upwards of thirty years has untiringly
devoted her time and talents as female
Physician and nurse. principally among
children. She has especially studied the
constitution and wants of this numerous
class, and, rs a result of this effort, and
practical knowledge, obtained in life
time spent rs a nurse and physician, she
has compounded Soothing Syrup for
children teething. 1t operates like magic
giving rest and health, and is moreover,
sure To regulate the bowels. In conse-
quence of this article, Mrs. Winslow is
becoming world-renowned as q benefac-
ter OF her race; children certainly do rise
up and. bless her, especially Is this the
case in this city. Vast quantities of the
Soothing Syrup are daily sold and used
here. We think Mrs. Winslow has i'm
mortalized her name by this invaluable
article, and we sincerely believe thou
sands of children have been saved from
an early grave by its timely use, and that
millions yet unborn will share its benefits
and unite in calling her blessed. No
mother has discharged her duty to her
suffering little one, in our opinion, until
she has given IL the benefit of Mrs. Wins
lows Soothing Syrup. Try it, mothers
try it now.-Lddies' JisitOr. New York
