It has produced a general awakening amopg all olasses and given rise to sen sations humorous, anxious or exoiling, according to the situation of the indi vidual. Much fun was afloat yesterday, and for small inoonvenencies, surprises or accidents there was leu of sympathy than merriment felt and expressed. The rents of down-town houses were not ex pired, vet there teemed to be a good deal of moving going on. For this time the epizootio was entirely overwhelmed, and all horse locomotion superceded by boats and battcaux. We believe that all the Icecdown tenants got safely accommodated in higher latitudes before nightfall, and have heard of no serions accidents to man or beast. It has been suggested, however, that during a flood it is a bad plan for some folks to take water with their whisky. Better go it straight if yon go it it at all. We re grot to learn that Mr. Harper has lost a large kiln of unbarnt brick, and that other parties havo suffered in the loss of wood and lumber. The more serious casualties have occurred to citizens in the country and to our railroad companies. We hear that several mills on Big Cedar creek have been washed away. The dam at Baker’s mill is gone, but the mill is safe. The wagon bridge over this creek on the Gave Upring road is gone. Only some trestle work on the Kingston railroad has been injured.— Trains will resume iunning on this line to-morrow. The Howe truss bridge over Big Cedar, on the line of the Selma road is badly damaged. Both of tLc wagon bridges over Big Armnchee are g one. Added to these losses there most e a large aggregate of damage done to farmers on the lines of our rivers of wbioh wo have as yet no particulars. Wo are glad to report the bridges near Borne all safe. The waters ore now abating and in a few duys things will ran in thoir old channels. A Protestant convent to be Established tn Battlmora. from the Now York Heisld. December IP, By the steamer Celtic, of tbo White Star line, there have been expected since Saturday threo distinguished ladles of the Protestant Episcopal Order of tho Sisters of At' Saints, or, as they are sometimes called, from tho charactor of their mission and labors, “ Sisters of the Poor.” The principal of the gentle vis iters is Sister Helen, who, without doubt, in consideration of her pnro-hearted de votion and her noble services in the past, will bo raado tho Lady Superior of the new establishment in this country, Tho two accompanying Sisters are younger than she. SieWr Helen is n daughter of tho late Captain Bowdtuv ot tho Royal Navy of England, and from hi r first taking of tbo veil, in which oho was tho third member of the Order, she bus signalized her modest and unassuming self by acts of tho most wonderful nature an : of tho kindest womanhood. In London her name bas been very well known for some years, and lias more than once been graced with enthusiastic praise from the lips ot her lady sovereign, Victoria. Bister Helen followed in the bloody path of tho Franco-Prussian war, begin ning at the great battle of Baarbrnck, The Order of the Bisters of All Baiats has not been established more than a dozen years, being the second one within the fold of the Eoglish Cnurob. It has thus far, it is believed, boon entirely supported by tbs generosity of private individuals who are interested in its wel fare. Its principal objeot is that of min istering to the sick, and the system of nursing followed by the Sisters Is proba bly the best and most intelligent ever used. A leading Episcopalian minister ol Baltimore, Md,, recently wrote to the Lady Superior of tho oommunity in Lon don, saying that there was a great field for their labors hete. Tho present mi gration is a result of this incident The Oeltio sailed from Liverpool on the 28th of last month, and is somewhat overdue. The Sisters will panso here for only a short time, and will then proceed to their fntnre home in Balti more, which is already prepared for their reccpiion. Ha}- Mae.

A Tennessee Uclle In Italy Alf. Hotsely, of tho Columbia Herald, witb characteristic grace, writes the fol lowing: Miss Antoinette Polk, daughter ef the late Ool. Andrew J, Polk, of this county, is now the reigning belie at one ot Italy’s favored places of resort—Mon- She is a groat favorite of the Princess Royal Marguerite, and is often a welcome and oheriahed guest at the Royal Palace of Monza. Miss Polk haa a homo—Ash wood Hall—six miles from Columbia, which ia one of the finest restdenoea in Middle Tennessee, and situated in a country which vies in beauty of landscpae and lertilhy of soil, with any in Italy—the darling of poets and lovers of pleasure. She has kinswomen and friends here who are the equals, if not be superiors, of Princess Marguerite; and sbo has, also, a bean, who now Cbunfs money by the thousand, and who is, we dare say, handsomer and smarter than any of the titled gallants she meets with in Italy. And yet she prefers Italy to Mau ry connty. She went to Europe soon after the war, and bas come back onlv once—in 1867, we believe—bnt it ia ru mored that she will soon return. It was on her broad acres at Ashford that aht learned the graoefnl equestrianism which has so astonished the pleasure loving —The first song ever composed in Eog- «nd was a Christmas oarol in Anglo-Nor- —■'Tench. and of tni-at tragedy in the language, brought oat sb-t, oomedieb, were both festivities of the pee. 0 f tho Chrismas- — A very remarkablo u. that began on Christmas Day, 17Go,one lasted till tho 17th ot January, when there was ono day’s thaw, followed by another week of excessively sharp frost. The continuance of intense cold for near ly a month was terrible in its effects upon the population and vegetation, —The bedutiful spirit of beneficence has endeared Cbristmus Day to the poor and the young. What a joyous time it brings to tho heart of ohildhood I And how pleasant it must be to a truly generous nature to participate in tho usual felici ties of the holiday season, and to observe the exultation of the yonng at the tokens of affeotion they receive I —Tbero is a very curious custom ob served by the Greek Oharoh throughout Russia. It is the baptism at Christmas of the pstron-ssint. Each village and eaoh oity has its particular patron. In the larger towns the oeremony is per formed by a bishop. A eross is out in the ioe, and the patron-saint, represented by a carved wooden effigy, is baptized. —The ooldest day ever known in Lon don was a Christmas day, just seventy- five years sgo. The occurrence is not fresh in the memory of many of ns.— The register then was sixteen degrees below zero, and thongh that was beaten only ten years ago in many parts of Eng land, it bas not been eqnalled in the me tropolis, whioh is in by no means the ooldest latitude of the island, —All Christian nations honor the an- niversity of the Savior’s birth with sol emn worship and with social joy; with the impressive pomp of religions ceremo nials; with poetry, mneio, eloquence, and spiritnal communion. In this beautiful festival—the grandest and the gladdest of the sons of men, they celebrate the spiritnal regeneration of mankind. —Even in rude times, Christmas bas had the power to mitigate the ferooities of war. At the siege of Orleans, in 1824, the English historian says the solemni ties and festivities of Christmas gave a short interval of repose. The English lords requested of the French command ers that they might havo a night oi min strelsy with trumpets and clarions. This was granted, and tho horrors of war were suspended by melodies wbioh were thought to be delightful. —Let Christmas be oousocrated to the communion of religious worship and to social festivity, to worship solemn, not gloomy—bnt of hearts fall of gratitude and love; to social festivity—oheerful as becoming the day; let frieuds be remem bered; and the poorfoel that they are in cluded in onr sympathies; in every heart let there be peace and love; and over all, the bright blue heaven of hope, radiant with the golden sunshine of happiness. The beautiful custom of ndorning houses with evergreens during the Christmas holidays, is ascribed to vari ous causes. Those who have taken the Christian view of the matter refer to thoso expressions so frequently met with in the prophetical writings, where green boughs are spoken of as ornaments of the sanctuary and signs of rsjoicing. Others have affirmed that tho custom had a pagan origin and refer to the beau tiful druidical custom of hanging np in the honse, boughs of green, to which the wood spirits might resort to shelter them from the nipping blasts of winter. — One of tho specialties of Christ mas day in olden times was the Christ mas pie, which was often composed of fish, flesh end fowl. In the reign of Henry HI. tho sheriff of Gloncester was once ordered by that monarch to pro cure “twenty salmon, ten peacocks, and ten brawns, ’ for Christmas pies. The peacock was only produced at solemn and chivalrio banquots, such as that of Christmas, and when thus served up— with gilded beak and plumed crest, bis head appearing at ono end of the pie and his tail at the other, spread oat in all its glory—was carried in stato into the hall, to the sound of minstrelsy, by the lady most distinguished for birth aud boauty, tho other ladies following in due order. —“ Any man or woman * * that can give any knowledge, or tell any tidings, of an old, old, very old grcy-beardcd gentleman, called Christmas, who was wont to bo a verio familiar ghost, and visits a'l sorts of people, both pore nod rich, and used to appears in glittering ijold, silk uad silver, in tho Court, and nail shapes in the Theatre in White hall, and had singing, feast and jollite in all places, both in the oitio and countrie for his coming. * * * * Whoso ever cun tell what is become of him, or where he may be found, let them bring bim back againe into England.”—An Hue and Cry After Christmas. Staffing a Oooit. The following contribution on social cookery is evidently drawn from experi ence rather than observation: A young, innocent, confiding, just married goose, ia tbo easiest to bo stalled. Tbo fullowiag is a common process: She had been married anont a month to a husband who has been a lituo fast; but he promises reformation, and starts off matrimonially by resolving to settle down and become a model family man. The first few weeks go off well; bo spends every evening at borne with the gooso, who imagines there is to be no end to the honeymoon. But one day the hus band meets a triend, and that friend badgers him abont the constraint of mar. tied life, ete. The husband, afraid of being tbonght henpecked, resolvea to spend that evening at bi i old resort, with his former cronies. Then common cea the staffing of the goose. “I’ve got to go down to the office to night, my dear," says he, “to ace a man on very important business.” “And leave me all alone ?” pouts abe. “Soaorry, my dear, but it can't be helped.” “Can’t I go, too ?” “Ob, it would be hardly worth while— I’ll not be late—good bye,” and away he goes, chuckling over the succcsa ol the operation. After this, the goose is stuffed regular ly, and with growing frequency. One night the husband comes home with bis breath smelling of Bourbon. “Medicine lor the cholera, my dear. Next he stumbles in drank. “Sunstruck, my dear.” Finally, in most c is- s, tho gooso gets stuffed to her almost capacity very soon, and rofusua to aLaorb any more, and then the fires of conjugal contention are lighted, and then— Two Daily Corrections BY TBS Blue Mountain Route V I A SELMA, ROME, AND DALTJN Ki-ilroud and its Connections.
