CHRIsTMAs.-We have in tho course oil
events reached the Christmas eve of 1883,
and ere another sun rise eighteen hundred
and cighty-sevcn" years will havo elapsed
since the Great Author Of Christianity whose
birth is to be celebrated tomorrow lay q
babe "in Bethlehem Of .Judca in the days OF
Herod the king" The weather is decided
ly unpropitious for the joyous season, but
Notwithstanding that fact the stores have
driven q lively trade, and all day long the
many have been kept busy preparing for
to morrow. The eyes of the little ones are
glistening with joyous anticipations of the
g,ee they hope to experience, and the hoarse
sound of horns and report of fire crackers
will doubtless act MS lnllabics tonight in
consigning them TO drcam-land, where Wis
ions sweet will pass and repass, and when
innocent smiles will play upon their coun-
tenances. To Christian this ought to be
joyous season.. Though unfortunately so
many fail to SEQ anything more in Christ
mas than day on which the animal pas
sions are to be given loose rcins. the stu
dious have spiritual feast spread before
them when they contemplate the blessing
brought to the world by the entry into it of
Incarnate Truth. Who can read the history
of this storm tossed world with it's "sin and
death and all our woes" and not see the
need Of a Delverer? and who among the
pretenders to this mission who have appear
cd is worthy to be compared in any way to
Him who is, or should be, 1.-THE One alto
gether lovely2" In the feasting and mer-
ry-making which will characterize to-mor-
row let no one forget the fact that the oc-
casion will be the celebration Of the birth of
the Prince of Peace. Hence let good will
prevail, and may each heart be filed with
true joy, such rs must have enthused the
humble shepherds when at the Messiah's
birth heavenly choristers proclaimed peace
on earth, good will to men,"
cit Is generally conceded, we believe, that Christ was
years earlier in this than Inns been com
puted by the ordinary reckoning.

THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS.

Twas the nightbcforc Christmas when all through
the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even mouse;
The stockings were hung by the chimney with
care,
In hopes that ST. Nicholas soon would be there;
The children were nestled an snug i'll their beds,
While visions of sugar-plumS danced i'll their
heads;
And mamma in her 'korchcf and in my cap,
Had just settled our brains for a long winters
nap
When out on the lawn there arose snch clatter,
sprang from my bed to see what was the matter.
Away to tic window flew like flash
Tor. open the shutters and threw up the sash.
The moon on the breast Of the new-fillen snow,
Gave nstro of midday to objects below;
When, what to my wondering eye should appear,
But miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer
With n little old driver, so lively and quick,
knew in Il moment it must he st. Nick.
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistlcd, and shouted, and called them by
name:
"Now, Dashcr. now, Dancer! now, Pranccr and
Vixen
On Comet on, Cupid on Dondcr and Blitzcn--
TO the top of the porch to the top OF the wall!
Now. dash away, dash away, dash away a!l!'
AS dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the
sky,
So up to tho housctop the coursers they flew,
With the sleigh full of toys-and st. Nicholas,
too
And then in twinklng heard on tho roof
Tho prancng and paving of each little hoof.
As drew in my head, and was turning around,
Down the chimney st. Nicholas came with =
bound.
Tic was dressed all in fur from his head to his
foot
Aud his clothes were all furnished with ashes and
SCOT;
A bundle of toys he had flung OH his back,
And he looked like pcddlcr just opened his
pack.
Ills eyes, how they twinkled his din,ples how
merry
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like cherry;
His droll little month was drawn up like bow,
And the beard on his chin was as white rs the
The stump of pipe he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke it cncirclcd his head Ikea wreath.
lie had Il broad face and 4 little round belly
That shook when he laughed like bowl full OF
jelly.
He was chubby and plump-a right jolly old elf;
And laughed when | SAW him, in spite Of my
self
wink of his eye, and twist of his head,
Soon gave me to know | had nothing to dread.
He spoke not a word but went straight to his
work,
And filed all the stockings then turned with =
Aud, laying his finger aside OF his nose
And giving nod, up the chimney he rose
He sprang to his sleigh to his team gave a
whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle,
But | heard him cxclaim, ere he drove out Of
sight;
Happy Christmas to all, and to all, agood night :!
A LITTLE SON AND HEIR.
From Life.
The knot is tied,
The groom and bride,
Without IN earthly care,
Sail up the lake
Where they take
A little sun and air.
A year goes 10y,
Again July
Comes with its heat and glare
They seek the lake
Bat now they take
4 little son and heir.
