Approaching Holidays.
Christmas is approaching and
hearts are beginning to throb with
ness iu anticipation of old Santa Clans’
visit. It iH a time of general feasting
hilarity, but only children whose
are untouched by sorrow are fully
pared to enjoy it. Those who 1 ave out¬
grown the pleasures of childhood oan
find compensation iu adding to the
piness of children. Let us forget
own selfish cares and make the little ones
happy.
Sad l¥ews*
A telegram announcing the death of
mother at her home in Montgomery
ty on Friday came here Saturday
ltav W D McGregor. He had gone to
his appointment at Mt Airy,
£did not reoeive the dispatch in
time to attend her funeral. His mother
had been in feeble health for some, but
wus not confined to her bed, and the let¬
ter received from her only a few days
previous contained no intimation that she
w r aa worse. The news of her death—
which he thinks must have been sudden
—was a sad blow to him, but he has tbe
comforting reflection that she r.as a good
Christian aud has entered into the rest
that remaineth for the people of God.
He has the sympathy of many friends
throughout the Hamilton oirnnit

A Laudable Purpose.
The ladies are still considering the
question of giving a festival for the pur*
pose of raising funds to repair the Metb
odist church. Our noble women have
only to decide that an enterprise is laud¬
able to enlist their energies iu its support
and what they undertake is usually a suc¬
cess. Let them conclude to put the
church in first-class order and in a few
weeks they will rejoice in the knowledge
that the house of worship has been pre¬
served from decay and decay and ruin by
their efforts.

viewed the blessings and benefits that
crowned us as a nation and as a corneous
rnunity the past yeai. At the close of
the sermon the congregation bowed in
humble gratitude and returned thanks to
that kind Providence who has vouchsafed
us so many blessings.
