Thus provided each sullies; forth iuto the street and blows vociferously, lustily, unceasingly I du his musical instrument. Musical as was the music of rnnucmoueum ! The trumpets, to say the truth, hire a Cbrist F'mas scund. a>cro is no dcubt that K.SanU Claus hits, ui-large one of these ivcry trampots, as is there no doubt of tho existence and bcucvolcnco of that , personage. And it requires no greater stretch of imagination than to hear him wind a toot, r.s he turns u sharp, cold angle, in the rapid flight of his deer Wf,e. -.\ drawn islcigh, than to sec his descent down the chimney and his plying him self to tho happy task of fitting the | stockings bun - ready for bis fei Its. And there is no doubt that a single long shrill iuoto upon his horn, ringing clear and i brisk in the ircsfy air would be a happy greeting and ralutafio-n. Ah ! that dear |6ld Santa Claus ! He cornea down to vis, one of the dear traditions and aasccia ipns of Christmas I Ho ccuues ..the per ?Jcation of that part of the sentiment, hat breathes out as tho spirit of this enson.

However pleasant one shrill, crry blast from the old fellow's horn ?tild be to the car, there is, readers all. satiety to the souse of hearing as to 0 others. The reduplication, aud implication, and confusion, and con nuance of the blasts, as hw.nd by us h Christmas ovo night was detracting jpd destressing. This was the annuueia of the advQut of the genial Christ as in the city. Iu the midst of the Lroar and din, could be sseu tba busy kowd hurrying home. No father oow Jtbout his package of buudles. No other unprovided with his prcscut. o lover without his token.

With the street mongers j Christmas means noise 5 Ah! We!! ia the Charity that warms in our heart at this time let them shoot aud pop, and blow horns and yell 1 Tis their enjoyment. Mayhap they have no happy coey, gonial home ! no taring smile, of cheer ; no comfortable dinner, no loved oaes. Lit thorn shoot and yell, May Ood provide for tho homeless and j wild' and the wicked, out in tho cold street. Tis better thus, better than though they wandered wretched and ?silent,' or plied perhaps their nefarious trades. Better that tho streets should hum with their "-discordant jubilee, or the very- stones would cry out. So the night of 0>o Christmas eve waned in the city. The or.ise slowly merged into the silence and dark of the night and tho city filcpt. 3>ut the stars watch for tho dawn 6f fh'e Christmas morn, and that same star in the East heralded tlm the eighteen hundredth Christmas as it heralded the morn when the Child God was born upon earth. Happy earth, bright sun, happy hearts on that Snb bath-C hristmas. Cold as frost, clear as a sleigh bell, bright as suushino, was the Sunday, tho Christmas in tho city. Merry voices groctcd the morn, happy salutations hailed the season, and the' stockings were emptied, and tho boxes wore opened and luvo was in homes. Loved ones kissed and renewed again those vowes of love and Constance. Hato slumberd and shrunk wretohed and disgraced out into the dark and silent oblivion. Happy groups, so happy as they gathered arouud the family-altar, and with their hcarti glow5 with the lovo of God, thanked Him iu high Heavon, for this the first, the greatest Christmas-girt, the gift of his Son, whose teachings prcrnptcd all this love, renewed this on these Christmas morns. Tho bolls of the City Churches rung out, musically and clear, their brazen voices sounding the matin Christmas hymn, ns they called all to.his temple. The chinches of the Episcopal, Catholic?{ .and Lutheran dcmouiiuntions were ap propriately dressed and decked with evergveens, and wreaths, and festoecs and flowers, and the emblem cross and crown and heraldic star, the Alpha and Omega, could be seen conspicuious tokens amid the decorations, while the altars stood dressed in living verdure and beauty. In most of the churches sermons appropriate to tho occasion were pronounced, and Christmasautheius snug to the grand roll and "sweet| thunder" of the organs. ? The streets were ?live at the hour of the close of .services, with the happy congregations going homewards to their lieppy home Christmas dinners. There were tho aged grandfathers, with her who bad gone through life's pilgrimage us a bright solace to him, leaning still upon nis arm. Another mile-stone in their earthly career is being passed, and that mile-stone to-day is dressed with evergreens and flowers ! There arc the young and happy. Hope beckous them to a lung aud peaceful life ; ambition stirs them to look through the vistas and see the laurels and the honors 1 Love shews its blessings in store ia the future. Many happy Christmas days be to them. There are the maiden?, the dear little maidens! God bleHS thorn for their brightness and cheer on the Christmas ! Who canvisit Charleston nnd not notieo olid love and remember its pretty girls ? Ah ! Jove ! those short dresses are dis tricting and tantalizing; those toot arc distressing and thoso ankles, frequently stealing into view aro sure to kill! Away with that prudish old fellow, who would say thoso ankles > aro unmentionable I Wo would not trust him ! For us, we confess frankly and honestly, that they are bowitching. They are tho prettiest objects in all nature, and art cannot compass thorn. And the dear little maidens know thoir fatal power, aud they lovo to make us* miserable with them. Wo havo known a little maiden who possessed the most bewitching aukles nnd the dearest little feet and she was fond of shewing (bom, and we-?wcro foud of seeing them. Sir Walter Scott, breaks through nil this prudc-ice and teils ofortcof "hi- hcrsiscs wh^g^la^ ^; iowas the object that aUtfteUqrlovgtj* attention. IIo saw hcgjjoiiM throtfKn tho atreet, and her drca?nJP enough to oxposo her pretty ankle io full view, and iniincdiatcly^wali hit with the fatal arrow, and followed her regard less of all risks, and through some dfn*-$ gerous adventures, until he got an inter* view with her, and ?t.hsL weoad and wU ncr. 86 thcreV* ha^Jtf thi prudish old fellows and also to tho girls, for her ankle won her a beau. Ab ! well if it is a sin to think ofthoso ankles, wo *ryout "Pecoavi" "God Lord deliver i,^pf ^TbiWeirtory of those girls and their short dresses will haunt us iu our bachelorhood, until the'ghost is laid. Wall really what a digression ! But we crave pardon ! Tho Sunday passed away with its brightness. At night Dr. Hicks preach ed, nt Hibernian Hall a magnificent sermon. As a polished orator, Dr. Hicks ispccilcss. Unfortunately for Charles ton, be has given ofC;r.co to tho staid old oity, and has already left for Macon. Ga. Monday morning diwnod with the renewaj of th e trumpets tnd squibs and crackers which had been suspended du ring tho Sabbath, and which con tinned uninterruptedly all day. E?g-nog every where, every body drnnk egg-nog, and hot punch and tom-nrid-jerry were so freely partaken of all around that we wore almsst persuaded to try some. Tho girls were in Jho streets again all day, and wo wero distressed again. Af ter paying a few visit*, and finding these dear pretty girls just as engaging and tantaliziug inn-doors as on the streets and finishing up our business, wo rcgret cd to realise that the time of our depart ure had ccmo. - So with a heavy far ? .11 to tho old city, whom we had met under such fa vorablo auspices, and to its business and noise, and its pretty girls and their short dresses, we too our scat in tho enr mid woke up at tho dames ! Fmnnclpuiion Day. Monday last was celebrated by the colored people as Emancipation Day. A 6taud was erected in the Court Hotlse Square lor the purpntc, and, at about 3 o'clock P. M, the vast, multitudo of moving forms that mado bus} o?f streets during that day, aescmblcd iu front of the platform to listen to tho speeches that were to be mr.de. It being lite in the aft moon, the usual preliminary routine was dispensed with. The meeting was called to order by a brief but eloquent address. After thio was introduced the speaker of the occasion, Mr. Benjamin By as, Itcp rcscntative from this County. Mr.-Byns said : "This is a day pe culiar to our race and to our history as a people. We must congratulate our selves upon tho rocOYrehce of its anni versary. For any but ourselves to prop erly appreciate its pleasures is as impos sible as it would be unnatural. The anni versary of tho Emancipation Proclama tion, will always remain a day that none but ourselres can cherish and love with that degree of ardor and cuthuslasm which its rc-occuvrenee e ver warms and heats in our bosoms. The memories, the scenes, the recollections with which it is fraught C?:; vtut>?Svl.S in u>? iijp&ftB, uuv none arc they so warm, so intense as with us." Mr. Byas then reviewed at length the history of his race and concluded as follows : " In my heart I rejoice with you to yad, fellow citizens, in your exceeding joy. And where is the Christian, the true American citizen who does not! Is there a man upon this broad land that would change our condition if bo :uuld ? I think uot. Christianity has advaneod, humanity has advanced, aud I believe to-day that if the question bad to be re committed to tha I American poople, Whethor or not our race should be made slaves again, that the verdict would be no. We are free now! The obliga tions whioh dovolve on us as citizens, is to render ourselves useful to the coun try of which we form a part. So help me God, I will! Lot our cry be onward! onward 1 liko the falcon to her qua'nry. Cntoff Jjthe fetters from the chained pris oner, and ho is freo; bnt unless he moves off, he might aa well still be bound. Amid the laurels in the conquer'* the jewels in that Uuioi *iyw**ywejg3racc, tno brightest, retfest end ewcctentJI gom, $ig loveliest MtttSt 4?}d?ithrallnie4.vf our peo Let as then show odr prefer appreci ation of this boon bj honesty, in telligence, sobriety, and goid will to Ward? all men !" Other speaker* were introduced, and mode short speeches. H The addresses throughout wore con aerratiro and exceedingly conciliatory in their tone, and not harraogucs, as the Charleston &ew>'i.Oraageburg correspon dent styles them. Every thing went off quietly, a faot which we are glud to chrouicle. And in the evening each man departed for his home iu thought, in pcaco and deep sobriety. - I M ?PHI I Usury Laws. Perhaps no Bill was ever introduced in the Legislature of our State, which wan not of a political nature, that elici ted the general condemnation of almost the entiro press to suoh a just extent, aa the Usury Bill recently introduced by Mr. Wilkei. Wo havo maintained a strict ailenee on this ques:iou up to the present time. The confidence wc have in the interest which our legislators should have end feel for our' prosperity and our people; and especially that por tion of them which the revival of this deleterious and exploded system will in jure mostly?the merchant and the farm er?precludes the possibility - of the be lief on onr part that they could be in duced to give their sanction to any such absolcte idea. Mr. Wilkes, we have no doubt, is conscientious in his espousal of this cause* We do not impugn his motives. But this We know; be his motives what they may, he is seeking to establish a law to work to the injury of the very ones, whom iu his heart he d-.** sires to benefit. And we ask him to think well beforo ho attempts to prose cute his Bill further. Legislators should consider the interests of .t he Whole .State in making laws, and not those of one manor ono County. Surely theo, if] Mr. Wilkes will do this (andere arc j unwilling to tbiuk that he nil! not) the Bill to re-establish the usury laws of| South Carolina, will receive no more at tention from him. We ask : Can the present Ocucral Assembly, to act out their promises made duriug the cam paign, send out an edict, under the broad seal of legislation, legalized and fixed as a law, w h i c h will ef factually injure and cripple the com merce of our State! That wi|l depre ciate aud ruin the credit of the farmer ; that will debar our merchants from mak ing advances to the poor and dependent; that will not only dator capital from flowing iuto our State, but frighten the little that is here from our midst and make our march instead of progress slan one of retrogression ? Tb,o Char Irtton Next* has nobly fought and championed this subject, bringing as it did invincible argumonts agaiust the system. May it, iu its earnest solici tude for the welfare*of our people, reap the reward of its labors, and have cause ore long to rejoice with us at the re explosion of so retrogressive an idea. Charleston, S. <<., January -\. 1871. Mr. ArtiVor**? Christmas and New Year's holidays are passed, and with them we have buried the old and born a new* epoch lo our history as a people, for every ensuing year is and will hereafter be inaugurated by the celebration of that day, which has made us, as a Na tion the foremost champion ol human liberty among the civilized world. The emancipation of flavcry, waged by a necessity of war at first, turned out to be the foundation of a ucw political edi fies erected as it is up > tho basis of an ' equal political right of all races, and color, giving the black man n copartner ship in the management of this great country with tho whites. It is thcrfore to be wondered at, if the race so vitally interested by that change, tries and suc ceeds in making that day one of rejoic ings and thanksgiving. The colored population of Charleston were bound not. to be behind time iu taese festivities : They turned out with a will, men women and children, clad in their holiday attire and whosoover studied tho faces seen in the streets, could not fail to observe, th expression of joy and happiness, tha marked every duaky countcnanco an gave evidence, how keenly they all felt that Ibis wes their especial day bt joy. ISsrly in the merniug ?>," M?uuuv. streets wore beginning to fill with happy jwv"['ic. 5/iuttm aon fires ware "apart from every direction nnd the steady tramp of the different militia COy;p??iv?, Iis they made their way to the parade rendezvous, prepared in for the sight of a military display. Tho lino of troops formed on Broadway street, the right wing resting on tho corner of King J street. It was composed of 8 Compa nies of the 1st Batallion of S. C. N. Of. undo- ? onimnnd of Mnjor 8. Dickaori. Tho, Bat all ion prescutod an excellent appearance, especially Baudot) Us Rifle men, who iu their *gaudy uniforms nnd with their'flfic soldierly bearing proved to the spectator, that the colored race make excellent soldiers. After an in spection by Brigadier Gen. Whippc.r aud his staff, the troops paraded through t^e principal streets of the oify, followod by the civic (societies under Mr. T. J. Mackey nfe Marshall. Although tho procession was in itself a large one aud the streets thronged by a great crowd, yet not a single instance of disorder oc curred, nnd the whole day was character ized by tha*. decorum, which ought to mark the celebration of au important historical event. 4 - The city is now ngaiu ill her every day garb and the strangers who congre gated here to spend their Holidays are or have already returned to their re spectivc homes. Tho members of the General Assembly from tliis County and the adjoining ones, who have either spent the rcecss here or paid Us a short visit are pre-a ring to rntttrn to their of ficial duties and to morrow will sec the Legislature ngain assembled. Let us hope that the New Year will be .a hap py one to tho State of South fJarolina-.S and that our Representatives, may have learned fully the wishes of their con stituents, so ns to make such laws, a* will give satisfaction to the people that elec ted them, to manage the affairs of this good old State.
