BEFORE THE HOUDATB.
Sight, and Scene, tn Street, and Store.
Foreshadowing Christmas.
Jhe cold, drizzling rains and the sticky
and on the sidewalks and street-crossings
yesterday and last night, made Christmas
shopping and present-hunting anything
but an agreeable experience. As usual,
the approach of Christmas has for the past
three or four days crowded the streets and
•tores and brought with it the proverbial
bad weather. The anticipation of this
during the pleasant days last week
made the sagacious do as much as
possible of their holiday shopping
in advance. Most people, however,
seem to leave much until the last
moment, and even the most careful find
that after thinking they have thought of
everything, find a few things that they
have not thought of in time. Hence the
Christmas crowd steadily increases up to
Christ mas eve. Tola is partly attributable,
i o doubt, to the fact th-.t the display in
the stores increases in variety and showi
ness every season. The jewelers, confec
tioners, toy shops, dry goods, book,
queensware and fancy stores and station
ers make, jierhaps, the finest display,
To-dat, be the weather what it may,
will t>e iae height of the holiday harvest.
It will tie the last day for gift givers to
worry the clerks and salesmen with ques
tions what to give for Christmas, and the
porters w ill ilo their heaviest work in
lugging packages to back doors and smug
gling them into the houses without every
member of the family knowing what is
going on.
ihe small boy and girl’s curiosity will
not have much longer to wait betore the
secrets ot Santa Claus will be given up to
them, and dolls, woolly horses and dogs
and elephants and Noah’s arks, and every
other child’s toy will begin its course of
usefulness.
In the churches deft hands are at work
twining the evergreens, and to-day the
chancels and ceilings will be festooned
with green arches in token of the joyous
Christmas festival. In many homes pre
parations are going ou for family gather
ings, and as in times past the observ
ance of the day will be almost universal.

The following resolution adopted by the

read:
Grand Jury ltoou. j
Superior court Chatham county, Ua.,>
Dec. 23, ISB4. >
To the Hon. A. P. Aihiirui, Juilt/e:
We, the grand jury, recommend that at 'he
election to be held on Jan. 7 next the ballot
lioxea be place i at the outside doors of the
court hou>c, instead of as heretofore iu the
lobby, and that your Honor instruct those iu
charge of the building to prevent the free
distribution or sale of liquor in the building,
or in its vicinity, during the day of election.
T. L. KINSEY. Foreman pro tem.
The Committee on Election, after
considering the matter and after consul
tation with Judge Adams, found that it
would not be proper to locate the ballot
boxes at the places suggested, as the
board has no authority to close the county
offices on election day, and this would
virtually be the effect of placing the boxes
at the outside doors of the building. The
board will,lit is understood, cheerlully co
operate with the grand jury in enforcing
the iaw concerning the sale of liquor, aud
the necessary instructions will be issued
to the Sneriff' and Constables for its en
forcement.
The Committee on Election made the
following appointments of managers lor
the election of Constables, to be held sn
Saturday, Jan. 4, in the Fifth, Sixth,
Seventh and Eighth militia district#
