Christmas.

No longer Christendom's only. but
the holiday of the whole world has come
around again. The story of Christmas
in an old bu: never stale one. Its inllu-
ence is fel. in every sphere. Commerce
as we'll as society, trade and sentiment
alike pay homage TO it. From Il home
and church festival it has developed
into an event OF general significance, a
period of the year which regularly inf'l-
ences the current OF the worlds events.
Many branches of labor and trade are
devoted exclusively to preparations fol

several months centering upon it.
Legislatures adjourn for it. Stock

paper, telegraph and other great agen-
cies of later civilization feel its delights
aud disadvantages, its profits and its
burdens, most sensibly. But all Of these
only contribute to the more marked oh
servance Of the Christmastide Us pre-
eminently the festival Of HOME. This
sentiment, which is the flower of Chris
tianity, is the one most prominent in the
popular appreciation of the present holi
day season. The family reunion
and the practice Of gift-makine
are the universal and enduring character
istics of Christmas celebration, alike
typical of the institution Of the occasion

Free Passes.

The Harrisburg Telegraph is Of the
opinion that " the reform editor may
Just as we'll save his ink and his
rhetoric now being wasted in con.
demnation of the use of free passes by
members of the Legislature. The
judges of the supreme court ride On free
passes, the local judiciary use them,
every official whose decisions or public
acts may affect the interests of railroads
is supplied with free transportation.
Even the pure members of the late con
stitutional convention did not despise
them. 1t is a species of petty bribery,
but its universally has robbed it of
its ugly name" The facts may lie
as stated, but the universally of a
bad practice does not rob it Of
its bad character, however it may re.
lieve its bad name. \ Judge who rides
on free pass issued by a company
which comes before his court as a suitor
might just as we'll have Il money favor
in his pocket from one of the liti-
giants in another action in Which lie is
expected to hold the scales evenly.
Members of the Legislature WHO swear
to support the constitution, forbiddins
the issue Of free passes, and then accent
them, cannot he expected to make that
constitution effective. But, if from no
higher consideration, we have ATTEMPTED
to excite public reprobation upon the
practice Of free pass-;aking, because it
leads to a waste of the peoples time by
their legislative servants. Members
with passes in their pockets travel too
much. The mileage allowed them will
pay all their necessary travelling expenses.
More than they have no right to.

SATURDAY FyENING DEC. 23. 1882
A Dead Dog.

Senator Malone has spoken in the Sen
ate in defense of his conduct in levying
assessments upon United States officials
in his state. His defense consists in
declaration that his efforts to raise funds
in this way were Ineffective. He does
not deny the issue of a circular signed
with his name on behalf of his party
organization calling upon the Virgin
iaEs who held United States Offices
to contribute to his campaign fund.
What he does deny is that all Virginia
officials were thus favored. or that all
who we're summoned to pay stepped up
to settle. Only 252, for instance. of the
1890 pcsjmasters in the state got the
circular, and of these only 90 responded.
OF the 342 Virginia desks in the Wash
ington departments only % had the Cir
cular and only 40 responded. And no
authority over these people had been
consulted about the demand on them nor
As to the response made to it. Why he
sought to make his levy on but part CT
the government beneliciaries the Senator
does not explain. And it is not material
to the public. That the raid made on
these government employees was with
the assent of their superiOrs, is not palt
of tho charge against the Virginia sera-
tor. The weight of the allegation against
him is that he assumed authority TO de-
mand contribution from government
officers, and that he held his reputation
of power with the administration to
compel their response. Whether lie did
this with all or with some, is not male
rial. If not with all, he had rea-
son for it which was apart from
a sense Of the improperly of the
demand. Why he has not, since the
election sought to execute the vengeance
which was expected to follow Il failure
to meet his request is sufficiently eX
planned by the Democratic ascendancy
which las come upon the country and
which thoroughly emasculated Malone
of his supposed political strength. lie
does not strike because he has not the
power. He made narrow escape from
defeat in his state and, with the disaster
which SO widely overlook the party in
the country with which he allied hini-
self, lie is left standing as blasted tree
in the political forest. lie is of no pos
sible account any more in the politics OF
the country. lie is dog that has had
his day and is now too enfeebled to bite
or even to bark with any intimidating
sound.

The Huinorist Discussing Women ut tho
New England Dinner in New Ycrk.
The seventy-seventh annual din.
ner of the New England society took place
at Delmo,:ico's, New York city, Friday
evening. Josiah NJ. Fiske presided.
Among those on the platform were Gen.
Grant, Mayor Grace, Judge Abraham r.
Lawrcncc, Rev. Arthur Brooks, Chauncey
NJ. Depew, and Governor Bigclow, Of Con
necticut, Robert L. McCurdy, Colonel
Villas, Rev. d. Upsler, Mark Twain, Gen.
Horace Porter and Senator Miller, of Cali
fornia, were among the guests.
Mark Twain made one of his charac-
teristic after-dinner speeches, taking for
his subject Women" He described
tue matter OF dress, comparing the daugh.
ter of savagery and the daughter of
civilization, and said tho daughter of
savagery when she went to church wore
nothing but her complexion. He de-
scribed it as the ncatest and most graceful
costume now in fashion. 1t wears we'll,
is fast color, it doesn't show the dirt, in
fact it is the handiest dress in the whole
realm of fashion. One don't have to wait
for three quarters of an hour in the parlor
before she is dressed. The daughters of
savagery do not 60 to church to see what
their neighbors have on, and don't re-
turn to describe and slander it. A large
part of tue daughter of civilization is her
dress. Some civilized women lose half
their charms without dress and somo
would lose all. The modern daughter of
civilization is marvel of exquisite art
aud expense. He didn't know where
her hair was from. He could never find
out-that is, the hair that sho did not 60

thing which she twists and then coils

ion, and then tucks the end in under the
hive and harpoons it with a hair-pin.
He gave very graphic description of his
hunt for an owner of hair pin in Pull
man car and his disgust at not being able
to succeed. He closed his speech by ut
tering, with sincerity: "Womau, God

ment Of Christ mas rresents by Express
and mail.
The last business day before Christmas,
opened bright aud clear, after several days
Of dark, damp, dreary weather. The
market people came in in strong force and
both the Central aud Northern markets
were packed with all kinds of provisions
and country produce. Poultry was, of
course, q chief article of marketing and
was displayed in abundance, both dressei
and live. Dressed turkeys ranged in price
from Les to 81, the average being from
16 to 1S cents per ID. Live turkeys sold
for 81 up to $3.50. Dressed geese
brought from s1.25 to SLIGO: ducks
from so to GO cents and
chickens from 40 to 75 cents. Live chick
ems from GO cents to 81 per pair. The
butchers offered unusually fine meats at
about the usual pricas. Butter sold like
hot cakes at 40 cents pound and eggs at
SO and 40 cents per dozen. N1incs meat
was in lively demand at ii cents per
pound celery at 10 cents per buuch /;
oranges at 25@7O cents per dozen, lemons
25@3O cents per dozen, apples, 2OO3O
cents per half peck, and nuts Of all kinds
at prices heretofore quoted.
The great masses of Christmas green's
with which Centre square has been block
AIDED for several days past, had almost
entirely disappeared by 10 O'Clock this
morning, and the dealers expressed them
selves satisfied with their trade, though it
was not equal to that done last year.
All day the streets have been crowded
with people, and the storekeepers, who
have been looking decidedly blue for scv-
eral days past, are crowded with custO-
mers and appear to be happy.
The postofice, the express Office and
the freight Offices are piled full of parcels,
packages, bags, and boxes of all cOnceiv-
able sizes and shapes, containing Christ
mas presents to be forwarded to friends at
distance.
The prospects are that after very dull
season we are going to have very merry
Christmas.
