Ala; Christmas.—It ia a fact of universal perceptibility that old Santa Claus—who for four or five years pa?t has hoen send ing only ahabby "substitutes” to the South—is coming this Christmas in pro pria persona, and it bringing an unusual load of good things wherewith to make merry the holidays. The old fellow has hung out his banner all over Broad street, and has paiaded in the shop windows the most attractive heralds of his approach. Many a juvenile heart has been made glad by the pleasing sight, and the pure but ardent anticipations of childhood are intensely aroused. Who does not sympa thize with the youthful crowd in the pleasant emotions which the occasion pro duces, and revert with melancholy grati fication to tho good old times when our joys were as unalloyed and our aspira tions as sinless as theirs? “Ob manhood! could thy spirit kneel Beside that sunny child, As fondly pray, as purely feel, With soul A9 undented— That moment would eneirole thee With light and love divine, Thy soul might gate on Deity, And Ileavon itself be thine!” Prominent among tho caterers for the gratification of those little folks is W. H. H. Phelps, who has put all his Boes to work for them, and whose Hive is well stocked with everything that can gratify the palate or tho sight. Old Santa Claus has a big dopot at the “Hive,” beyond dispute. Ho has also an attractive "Emporium” at Messrs. Sappinoton, Dews & Co.'s, whose tempting bill of fare may he found by consulting our advertising columns. Mr. Pkask has a largo stock of hooks suited for Christmas gifts for people of any age; and no gift could be more ap propriate or permanently valuable. Messrs. S. & J. Palmer & Co. have elegant suits of clothing for the little boys; and Messrs. G-. M. Rknfrok & Co. have tho wherewithal to make "a merry Christmas” for "children of a larger growth.” , Wo are also advlsod that Mr. E. S. Swift, 163 Broad street, has good things for Christmas In his well selected stock. But it is perhaps invidious to particu larize. As we have said above, Christmas is "spreading itself” all over Broad street, and we hope that tho favors of the season may bo so generously distributed that all will get'a sharo. Business-like.—Yesterday was appa rently another great business day in Co lumbus. Wagons navigated tho muddy streets in numbeis so great as almost to amount to a barricade, and pedestrianism on tho sidewalks was a difficult and tortu ous procedure. In viow of tho scarcity of money in the country, we do not suppoeo that tho businoss transacted was on any thing like as large a scale as in former times, hut tho "map of busy life” pre sented on tho streets guvo gratifying proof that trado is "on its feet” again, and that tho surrounding country,far and near, seeks its old market.
