And wo trust lurtber that the .-rn?-kc ot savory sacrifices will asceud from the domestic nlt.ir oi'eaeh and every i-ne of them. The olf torios of our imaginait n inhale, as we write, the odor of roast turkeys, and the coats ol our stow ach experience :i gentle tilillaiion in anticipation of a lining suitable to the season.-Pium puddings (big enough to fit the mammoth ordnance with which we so vainly slew the Yankee.-) are " in our mind's eye, Horatio," And mince pies, evapora ting spicy odor?, and smelling a little, avery little of burnt brandy, seem to be gliding into our sane tum, propelled by- their own appetising steam While a distance that " lends enchantment to the ??ow," discloses a scene of confectionery and epicurean small wares that is quite overpowering An everlasting blostdng on jovial Christmas Never may its merry-making fall into disuse ! It is a good, substantial, wholesome, Anglo-Norman festival, worth ten thousand of Fashion's kick shaw galas. Our forefathers consecrated it to charily, and the smoke of their Christmas chimneys was a banner of hospitality, inviting thu poor and tho hungry to feast with those whom God had " blessed in basket and in store." To feed the hungry, clothe the nakod, and comfort the sick and the sorrowful, was the benevolent mission of Him who first saw the light of the world on Christmas Day: and wo shall better plcaso Heaven if wo celebrate the anniversary by sending turkeys to the turkeykss, pudding to the pudding'.cjs, und fuel to thoso who sit shivering by fireless baarths, tban if wo put up the longest prayer thut ev#r vat taken down in short-hand by tho recording ang?l. Religion, beloved readers, ls a genial spirit. Its vision is comprehensive, and takes in the whole circle of human suffering. And in onr opinion, every dead of human kindness is a now round added to the ladder by which, with Faith to steady him on the way, the Christian mounts from earth to heaven. Let us all, tberoforo, ctrivo to consecrate anew this great Sabbath cf humanity by following out, ai best wo may, the divine example of Him who "went about doing good/' Carpet* Oil Clothe, Curtains, Window i Shades. Very particular attention is called to tho jew advertisement in another column, of JAMES G. BAILIE k Bao., Augusta, Ga. Fresh supplies, comprising still newer and more varied patterns of tho above nainod articles, have ' cen received by these honorable and liberal merchants. They have now, as for years past, n selection not often equaled for variety and excellence; from which every purchaser, from the riebest to the poorest, may gratify his laste. And although Carpets, Oil Cloths, Curtains and Window Shades may b? summed up as the grand tpedal lie of BAILIB k BRO., yet they by no means confine themselves to Upholstery. But on tho contrary keep always on band a splendid stock of | Dry Goods, from the pl?iuest to thc most elegant ; of Groceries, from tim heaviest o tho lightest; of I Notions, from the simplest to tie mott fantastic : and of Liqaors, from the new*,? and cheapest to tho mellowest and most costly. Of the latter we hare (in sacred koeping) a rich and rare bottle Irish Whiskey-which they have sent us for new year's day. The opening of it shall be a solemn rite, and all the prayer; shall be (or the continued prosperity and high honor of BAILIB k URO.

Few people were prepared to witness a sight io beautiful as that which greeted them on Wednes day evening lost upon entering tho Hall of ihe Female College. Ther taste of the ladies of our community in matters of shows, pageantry, etc., is now fully established. Tho general arrange ment of the Stalls, Booths and Tables on the oc cisi?n in question, hit that nail firmly cn the head. Ifthe public aro willing to Uko our word fjr it, the coup d'ocil on entoring wat at lovely and harmonious as any We have ever beheld at a similar exhibition. 9 Thc n~Hll of the College became, fora few hours a li:tie world of light and life and beauty and j'jy. The whole thing was delightful. Every body was happy. The little children were ubio lutcly illuminated with mirth and gladness. Y jung men aud maidens, old men and children, in gay or sombre raiment, at the oate mig it re quire, moved about in kaleidoscopic order, form ing mosaic grouping! of colon light and dark. If there were lovers of solitude there, they had a b .d time. Animation was tb* watchword But ?till, if we mistake not, reverie and love-making (HS it always the case) found a quiet niche. Thete affairs do more than make monoy for charitable purposes ; they add to the amtieoment, iuitruction, grutifiention, of the community in which they are held. We earnestly wish they could be inaugurated oftener. The Cat under a Dish-Cover. For the little folks, as designed by the autlorett, we publish to-day a simple and pretty Chiirtmai Title.

The Toy Saint. Juvenile?, tho good time is at hand ! Tke patron saint of* suspended stockings, with step as light as the foot fall of Queen Mab, will within a few hours pay his annual donation visit to your domiciles. How his Duch-built, gray-bearded wooden-shoed reverence contrives to walk as if he wero shod with swan's down, and to insinuate his burly ptr-op into contracted chimney flues and narrow stove pipes, is a problem in physics the solution of which we loavo to your classic im aginations.

No longer than this morning we caughtagliinpse of of him at Mian UT A IIAH?IKO.VX. The jolly old peddler! He ii mak ing ready te start oa his rounds. But it was at the Baptist Fair hit pack wai principally made up. How he did pick and choose there on Wed nesday evening last ! At precisely twelve o'clock to-night, by a mul tiplying process pecaliar to himseir, St. Nicholas will descend at leant fivehundrod chimneys in this vicinity, and make more than double tbat num ber of holiday depoiits.The saintly peddler, un like his rasoally mortal brethren, disburses tbs eontents of his inexhaustible pack " free-gratis for nothing." Silent as his visits may be, Le will yet leave behind bim an abundant supply of the elements of noise. Druuft, trumpets, whistles, fiddles, rattles, whips, fifes, barking dogs, jews harps, triangles, tambourine?, castanet?, and va rious other instruments with which discord fires ita annual broadside at the drum of one's year, will, with the earliost peep of dawn on the mor row, drive all the adalt world croiy.
