Ali-Cord A Shaw Brick Store Bowdon St. THE CHRISTMAS DAYS are here. A year is breathing its last. And the convulsive onei with which it out iu life of toil h concomitant with the dying hopes of those who have seen for the first time, the hard band of fated adversity. Ihe chimes peal forth over the world in atmosphere, and a sun,more propitious in its beaming glances than the smile of any mon aich, shines forth with warming and cheering rays to draw from Na ture the tears that are due to. the de parting year. And the same sun will smile welcome to the child of the new year when its rosy face peeps out from behind the clouds of the storm. Looking back over the acts hap pening, and the thoughts of the twelvemonths just past, we can re call much to set the mind to think ing and the heart to acting. Great men have passed away, and their deaths have marked this year in blazing letters on the page of our country’s annals. Grant, Toombs, -Josh Billings, Vanderbilt, Hendricks, and many other men great for their good works, for their great acts, for themselves and mankind, have been lain away in the tomb, never more to cause commotions in the social political, and literary wcilds. The age has its record of great deeds in this, as well as in other years. The death of Victor Hugo, in France, created a general feel ing of sorrow throughout the civil ized and enlightened world. The blowing up of Hell Gate, in New York harbor was one of the greatest achievements of the centu ry, and the victory in the city of Atlanta, on the prohibition ques tion was of no little importance touching the welfare of the State at large. We have had our blessings, and troubles, trial-, and vexations have not beeu withhold from us. Let the angel of Peace hover over the whole world, wherever the Christ-child is held in reverence and love, and let the happy cheer of good hearts amd ready hands pervade every home, and may all nave that trust in each other, anti exercise that sell denial that will create a beautiful glow of univer sal happiness. Should the happy days of Christmas go by without all hearts being drawn together by the loveliness of the occasion—the birthday of our savior—then will the opportunities of many to do good acts be lost forever; many poor, lonely will bo left, goaded with the pains of adversity in this life to die in ignorance and destitution, and the new year’s sun will cast his luminous rays on fresh mounds of earth —brought at last to a lev el with those whose false pride in life caused them to neglect the 1 starving and oppressed.

Among them is Mr. Sheilds, of Oakwoods, Tex., who had Piles for forty years. He had utterly despaired of being helped by medical aid, abandoned al] labor, and the past year was subject to fearful spasms, bv which his body was drawn into contor tions. On one occasion of his suf ferings. col. Menning, a friend and distinguished citizen, ’-appened to be present, sent for the - c c incdi icine, and it was applied, giving instant relief. Mr/ Shields was before not able to walk or ride, but after using the cc c medicine for one week he was out attending to business as usual.
