NEWSPAPER MEN DISAGREE.

The EIkton Correspondent of the Balti-
more Sun Defends Himself.
The article which appeared in the
CecH C0u,ty Noes of last Wednesday a
week charging the Elkton correspondent
of the Baltimore Sun with misconstruing
report Of the temperance convention
greatly iucensed Mr.. Charles +. Hinch-
life, the correspondent in question, and
was followed up far more bitterly on
Friday of the same week by an article
in the .Wdia"d .I0urnW, a weekly news
paper published at Rising Sun by f. f.
Ewing & Sons, which charged Mr..
Hinchljile even more severely than the
-NcrS with dishonesty, bribery and un-
truthfulnesS In the Wdlund J0aiuaEs
article Mr.. uinchliffe saw grounds by
which he could sue its author for libel,
and therefore on Saturday last he had a
warrant issued for Mr.. Ewing's arrest.
On Monday last the SIN conta ned the
following editorial in reference to the
matter:

In answer to the summons of the Sher-
if, Mr. Ewing appeared in ElktonOn
Wednesday last and had an interview
with Mr.. Hinchliife in the office of VIM.
j. Jones, Esq After expressing his sor-
row that the thing had occurred at all,
Mr., Ewing induced Mr.. Hinchliffe to ac-
cepC compromise through an apology
which he promised TO publish in yeSter-
days issue of his paper. Mr.. Ewing
stated that he was willing to rctract all
assertions or insinuations which he had
made against Mr.. Hinchliffe, both as a
reporter and as a man, and also that he
labored under misapprehension of the
facts in the case when he penned the
article, and Furthermore was not &C.
ouainted with the CORRESPONDENT of the
Sun. Under these circumstances d hear
ing of the case was waived, and we hope
the matter will be amicably settled for
all future time. One of the editors of

His Enemies Take Advantage of the Sea-
son and Flood Him with Them.
In the Rockland county court at New
City Monday last the Rev. Dr.. George
r. Bristor of Spring Valley, was put on
trial before Judge Weiant on the indict-
ment charging him with assaulting Ida
Downs, the young ward of the Brooklyn
Orphan Asylum, while she was tempo
rarily under his roof. This did not pre-
vent the accused parson from preaching
at both morning and evening services
Sunday to the little association of his
sympathizers known as the Congrega-
tional Church. His congregation Was
the smallest he has had since lie left the
church. At the Methodist church the
attendance was larger than during Mr.
Bristors pastorate. The Rev. w. P.
Ferguson, student OF the Drew Theo-
logical Seminary, will supply the pulpit
for six weeks. The trial was the absorb
ing topic of conversation 1T Spring Valley.
While the great ma jority believe him
guilty, it is anticipated that even sho uld
the jury fail to agree Parson Bristor will
be unable longer to hold services 1t is
announced that he will be defendedr by
Howe Il Hummel of New York and
Lawyer Brown of Haverstraw, a partner
of ex-District- Attorney AlonZo Wheeler.

WEDNESDAY,, DEC. %, 1886.
cHRIsT,s NATIVITY.

For more than eighteen hundred years,
the believers in Jesus Christ have annual.
~ celebrated His birth. And at an early
period of the church's history the time
was fixed upon the 25th day of December.
The exact date is matter Of minor i'm
portance; but the best and latest scholar
ship confirms the correctness OF this par
ticular time, as determined by the Ro-
man National Records and other secular
documents, and the Puritan poet, Milton,
seized upon the natural features of the
season 10 lend point and beauty to his
grand Christmas Hymn.
1t was the winter wild,
While the Heaven-born Child,
All meany wrapt in the rude manger lies;
Nature, in awe to ii i'm,
Had DOTTED her gaudy trim,
With her great Master so To sympathize."
The home festivities and the general
gaiety of popular holiday too often
make those who keep "Merry Christmas
forget or neglect its heavenly origin, its
best blessings, and its first duty. That
first duty is the religious one-"to wor-
ship Him who is born King of the Jews"
and of the world; to bless God for this
His highest gift to men; and then, with
such imitation as we are capable of, to
make presents with unselfish love to our
families, our friends and the poor; and to
be glad with sober and innocent merri-
ment, putting as much of the chiid's sim
plicity and gladness as we can into our
mirth for all may be children, on Christ
mas day
Again old Milton may be quoted to re.
mind us:
"This Is the month, and this the happy morn,
Wherein the Son of Heavens eternal King,
OF welded maid and virgin mother born,
Our great redemption from above did bring
For SO the holy sages once did sing,
That He our deadly forfeit should release.
And with His Father make perpetual p, are"
The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1886-12-22

Ever since the custom of giving Christmas gifts has been
established Jewey and Silver Ware have always been
knowedged the suitable and appropriate for presents
The trade in this line of goods has always been large in Lam
bertve and that the holiday has the demand
greatly increased Most prominent among the firms engaged
in this line of business in Lambertvile is that of ELY K
SOLLIDAY, IL North Union street This store has for
many years been conspicuous object Union street. and
sented most pleasing appearance to the people Mr. Soday
has of the largest and finest asortments of goods this
