Me. Davis.—The New York Herald, in speaking of tbe Iniquitous attempts lately made to revive the old. atery of Hr. Davis’ complicity with the assassination of Mr. Un- coln, says: ‘The statement which wo pub lished yesterday frem our Montreal corres pondent fully bears out the view* which we recently expressed regarding the alleged complicity of Jed Dayie and his Cabinet wit h the assassination plot. We never enter tained a doubt of tbe folaeoeea of tbe charge.

Mo simply wish to remind our young readers espociall. * that tins is a dey which brings witix it its rvi ligious obligations, as well as' its joys and sorrows. It is a day.which should be full of gladness for the old and young, the rich and poor.. It..is u day for kindly acts aud gene- ions thoughts aud gifts, for the best of fuel ing—l'or social reunions and family festivity. Jn tiiis us iu other countries, Christmas has always been a I'uvofiie holiday. In this city we rejoice iu its early morning chimes—in its ehilfficu's joyousness—its egg-nog aud social merry makings- To the child it brings the leaiizatiou of bright dreams^ around which cluster notions of some supermud- dauc benifiepnee. To the youth it brings present haziness find 'hope for tbe future. To the old it brings.remembrance and tile satisfaction of giving lo tho rich novelty, and, iu a righteous community, to the poor ubuudancc. None ot these things should be lost sight of. We envy not the feelings of the miserly' curmudgeon, whose heart expands not upon Christmas day. He is far happier who gives liberally of what be has in procuring tiiose little testimonials of affection which cheer the heart ot friendship, light the path way of iovc, and add fresh delight lo tlie in nocent enjoy meats of prattling childhood.! What is money worth to-day ? He who was horn this day, eighteen hundred ajici sixty-six years ago, hud not where lo lay bis betid. His mother was poor aud despised. His reputed lather was a mechanic. 'Die -uviour was laid iu a manger—the crib of a loa.iside stable. He mas poor. Yes, let its | thank God for that, on this eighteen huudqcu ■ and sixty-sixth anniversary of His Sob* I birthday.

DILLON, Banker, 224 Bay Street. A NEW AND GRAND EPOCH IN MED ICINE. Dr. UA6U1SL Is the founder of a new Medical Sys tern l The quuutitariaus, whose vast internal (loses eotoeble the stomach and paralyze the bowels, must give precedence to the man who restores health and appetite, with from one to two ol his extraordinary Pill*, and cures tbe most virulent sores with a box or ae of hta wonderful «ud all-bcaliug Salve. These two great specifics of the Doctor are fust supersed ing all tbe stereotyped noaCrams of the day. Extra ordinary cores by Moggiel’J Pill* and Solve have opened the eyes of tbe pnbiip to the uioittcieucy of; the fro-called) remedies ot others, and upon which people have so long blindly depended. Maggiersj Pills *rg hot ol the class that are swallowed by the dozen, and of which every box full takes eceato. ,an' sbMrinte necessity for another. One or twoof Mag- giei'a Pills soflices to place tbo bowels in perfecc or. der, tone the stomach, create an appetite, and ren der the aplrits light and buoyant. There la no griping, and no reaction iff the form of constipation. If tbe liver is affected, its functions arc restored; and ot tbe nervous system is feebly,.it is invigorated, Thla last quality makes the medicines very desirable fur the wants of delicate females. Ulcerous and eruptive diseases arc literally extiu- gulahcd by the disinfectant power ot Magglel'a Salve; In (act.
