Many are the enjoyments of. this blissful season, which claims for its origin no less important an event than the birth of the Saviour. Ah! but what joy—what superlative joy must have been experienced on that glori ous, that extraordinary occasion! Imagine the blessed announcement,. How ecstatic the seraphio tidings 1 “Fear not; for, behold, I bring yon good tidings of great joy, whioli shall be to all pcopier. For unto you is born this day aj Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.” What wonder, then, that this anni versary is perpetuated, and marked by snob kindly feelings?

The annual observance of Christ, mas may be dated back to the year 500. It was originally termed the “Mass ot Christ,’’ and was denomi natod the Eestival of Festivals, and Chief ot Festivals. It was during the celebration of it that Maximus evinced a disposition worthy of an arch fiend, in the destruction of a large number of Christians, by dia bolically firing one ot the churches in Nicomedia. The jiractice of orna menting churches and residences with evergreens points to Scripture in jus tification of its observance: “Go 1 fifrth unto the mount,-and fetch olive branches, and myrtle branches, and palm branches, and branches of thick trees to make booths as it is written. So the peo ple went forth and brought them, and made themselves booths, every one upon the roof of his house, and in their courts, and in the courts of the house of God, and.to the street of the water gate, and in the street of the gate of Ephraim.”—(Neb. yHl, 15,16.),; ,„;l The suspension of Uto mistletoe is: also of ancient dale.: The ancient- Northmen appear to have regarded it as possessing supernatural proper ties.

After spending large sums of money in experimenting, J. Estey & Co. have at last succeeded in manufacturing an organ which covers the whole ground. The action, by an ingenious and yet perfectly simplemechanism, has been rendered independent', and cannot be affected, like others, by chinges in the weather. A new and surprisingly beautiful design of case has been fashioned, and many other improvements been made, and we are iufermed by G. P. Guilford, Estey’s Managing Agent for the South, that in his experience ot twenty-nine years, he has never seen such a universal favorite as this organ seems to be. He has sent it out ou trial to be tested with other organs, and that not ono lias over been returned; neither has he failed to sell it to any customer who has ever seen it. Having done away with all local agencies, Estey has determined to sell through Mri Guilford directly to customers; thus givjng ’them tho benefit of all discounts, and commis sions, . •“ ‘ ^fuly.^S.tf.
