Christmas Chimes.

Again do they ring out joyous
peals, heralding the approach OF
that most sacred, revered and bles.
sed day, the nativity of Him who
has been styled the God.Man.-
Nearly nineteen centuries have
rolled away with all their chances
and changes since, while the Cal
dean shepherds watched their flocks
by night, hoping for the promised
signal, the star in the East, that
was to guide them to Bethlehem
and point to the ballowed spot-in
manger-as the birth place of
the Savior of lost world. Then
did the joyous refrain burst forth,
the glad shout of Angels proclaim
ing "Peace on earth, good will to-
wards mentor unto us a child is
born, unto US a Savior given" p
The anniversary of that most sac
red season is again at hand, and
with grateful hands and. humble
voices it is meet and proper that
our feelings should be elevated,
that we offer devout thanks to Him
the Divine giver, God over all for
ever more. Both as q nation and
as individuals we have abundant
cause therefor. Peace reigns with
in our borders and abundance
crowns our board. The united
plaudits Of a christian world will
proclaim the glad tidings of great
joy-heart will join with heart in
praise and alteration that our lines
have been cast in pleasant places,
while the occasion will be availed
of for social cheer, for family and
friendly reunions never more vel
come and appropriate.
The DEMOCRAT sends forth most
cordial greetings to its many friends
and patrons, and the heartiest
wishes for their continued good
health, prosperity and happiness,
both collectively and Individually,
and many suspicious returns Of the
festive season.

To TIE bditor Of the Dispatch:
II II my purpose to answer the letter OF
Mr.. Royal In your issue Of June 9th, and
also the very interesting and plausible let.
ter signed "Amicus Curia In your issue Of
June sth. The latter has given himself a
name which think q rnisnorer, for 1t was
very unkind to the court for him to cite
the case OF Cshens ~. Virginia, as l shall
show hereafter.
"Amicus Curia can rest assured that
shall not lug politics into this discussion,
though even from that standpoint l dis
ceru from his letter that we differ widely.
The hnstings is the field for that branch Of
this question. As to Mr.. Royals COM
ments and criticisms In MY reference to the
federalist, / desire TO say that, although
those articles were written before the
organization OF our Government, they were
written In advocacy OF and for the purpose
ri expouDding the Constitution as subse-
Iuently adopted, under which the Gov
crnment uas organized, and under which
il must be administered. Ii Is little too
Oold and reckless 10 deny that Mr.. Hami-
Ton was. and Is TO this day, recognized
- an able expounder OF and authority
ON the Constitution. Such q proposition
IS not diseasstble and further, there is
much In Mr.. Royals letter which do not
propose TO discuss, for be does not seem TO
that In all discussions OF this
character II Is necessary TO recur TO nrst
principles. or primary rules. upon which
" subsequent reasoning by which we are TO
rrivs r The truth depends. In my previous
sticls fErse propositions were advanced.
