Christmas Day.

The 25th of December, or Christmas
Day, of all days in the year is especial
ly kept in every Christian country as a
holiday, and is festival in the churches
of every Christian community. 1t is
everywhere distinguished by merriment,
hospitality and generosity. Every one
seems to be happy. From the time the
worshipping woman annointed the feet
Of our Savior, the same spirit that vim
dicated the pouring of the rich oint.
ment on His feet is seen in this COM
memoration. Every manly face bears
reflection Of that generosity which
drives the cloud froui the brow of Pow
erty and lets out upon his fellow man
some of the blessings that Providence
has bestowed upon him, as the iigh'
pours through our windows, rejecting
the lustres of the sunny heavens x snf
! all is joy and gladness:

christmas has come around, and the
unkind feelings that have struggled
against better dispositions during the
year have melted away before its genial
influence like -half-formed ice beneath
