Trie retail stores wire crowded all the evertosr, many of them staying open right up to 12 o'clock. While Ftroughton street was crowded almost as much as ts the . .isc on Christmas eve. there was noth, lug like the merriment that marks that occasion. However, here and them a straggling not# from a Christmas horn -uJd be heard, and now and then from a distance would come the sound of u innon cracker. IXrywhere the mercliants seamed to tx Invlng a lively trade, and packages were being sent out as rapidly as the de livery wagons, and the extra force of porters could carry them When there a sometimes doubt of getting packages out during the evening, the purchaser* would carry them themselves, and many •■hoppers could be seen going out H ill street with arms full of all sorts of bun dles. aiMli I hrialmas Hits the Pocket.

However, this morning * mall delivery will b*. much larger than Is usually the case on Sun day. and on that account there will be extra arrters on duty. These extra car riers will also aid In the delivery of mall to-morrow, and on Christmas morning, there being only one delivery on Tuesday.
