On Saturday n:ght about two thousajid flvo hundred nud ninety seven boys procirrtd each a tin trumpet, n big Santa Claus horn. Thus provided each sallies forth into the street and f blows vociferously, lustily, unceasingly I on his ????conuslrnnocnt. Musical as i I was tho music cf Fandenioueatri ! Tho ? trumpets, to say the truth, have a Christ ? nias sc und. There is no doubt tbr.t Santa Claus has a large one of these faery trumpots, as is there no doubt of ?$ho existence nml bcnevolcnco of tbat |pcrsonagc. And it requires no greater stretch cf imagination than to bear him wind a toot, cs he turns a sharp, cold angle, in the rapid flight of his deer drawn slcig!;, than to sec his descent down the chimney and his plying him self to tho happy task of fitting the stocking Lung ic ul- fur his gifte. And there is no doubt that a single long shrill noto upon his horn, ringing clear and brisk in ?the irc'tfy air would- bo a happy greeting nnd talutali. n. Ah ! that dear Did Santa Claus! Ho comes down to its, one of the dear traditions and associa tions of Cbrihtmas 1 lie comes live pcr niflcalion of that part of the pentimctit. hat breathes out as vthe'-spirit of this enson.

This was the annuueia lou of the advent of tho genial Christ las in the city. Iu the midst of the foroar and din, coul' be seen tli2 busy fcowd hurrying home. No father oow filhouL hia package of buud'.cs. No Jtother unprovided with his prcscut. fo lover without his token. Ah! thanks to God, the giver of this kind love |. 1 goodwill, that prompts these bene tctions ! Tho stores are ctowded and ^?ight, brightJtltoughji, every customer buying not for himself but for some Sved one 'I And I boo, brighter thought, lerccijjocal good-feeling aud love enkind jd iu the mutual hearts of tho givor and ic receiver. Yoroly the groat honrt of lo people bcuLj with a new pulsation of idwill and love. I low appropriate Lis custom to the spirit of His religion, rho was born into tho world at this iesotr.

Added to the din of thousauda of home, there is the ex plosion and crack and hnrst and pop of sou lb and cracker and roekot. With the street mongers '. Christmas menris noise ' Ali! Well in the Charity that warms in '?Mr heart ot this time let them shoot and pop, and blow horna'and yell! Tis their enjoyment. Mayhap they have no happy coey, genial home 1 uo loving smile of cheer 5 no comfortable dinner, no loved ones. Let thorn shoot and yell, May God provide for tho homeless and wild and tho wicked, out in tho cold 1' ' "MA $ 3 'tf? ' street. Tis better thus, better than though they wandered wretched and silent, or plied pcrhnps their nefarious trades. Better that the streets should hum with their discordant jubilee, or the very stones would cry out. So the night of tho Christmas eve waned in the city. The noise slowly merged into the silence and dark of the night and tho city slept. But the stars watch lor tho dawn of the Christmas morn, and that same star in the East heralded this the eighteen hundredth Christmas as it heralded the morn when theCniLD God was born upon earth. Happy earth, bright sun, happy hearts on that Sab bath-Christmas. Cold as frostj clenr as a sleigh bell, bright a3 sunshine, was the Sunday, tho Christmas in the city. Merry voice* greeted tho morn, happy salutations hailed the season, and the' stockings were emptied, aud tho bo_c3 were opened and love was in homes. Loved ones kissed and reucwed again those vowes of love and Constance, fluto slumberd and shrunk wretched and disgraced out into the dark and silent oblivion. Happy groups, so happy as they gathered around the family-altar, and with their hcarti glowing with the luvo of God, thunked ,Him iu high Heaven, for this the Cist, the greatest Chri?tmni'gi!t, the gift of his Sou, whose teachings prompted nil this love, renewed this on these Christmas morns. The bells of the City Churches l ung out, musically aud clear, their brazen voices sounding the matin Christmas hymn, r.s they called all to his temple. The churches of the Episcopal, Catholic .and Lutheran demomiuations were ap propriately dressed and docked with evergreens, and wreaths, and festoons and flowers, and the emblem cross and crown and heraldic star, the Alpha aaid Omega, could be seen conspieuious tokens amid the decorations, while the altars stood dressed in living verdure and beauty. In most of the churches tenuous appropriate to tho occasion were pronouueed, aud Christmas anthems snug to the grand roll and "sweet, thunder" of the organs. ? The streets were alive at the hour of | the tloso of services, with the happy congregations going homewards to their happy home Christmas dinners. There were tho aged grandfathers, with her who had gouc through life's pilgrimage us a bright solace to him, leaning still upon his 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 beckons them to a long aud peaceful life ; ambition stirs them to look tbrovsh the viWLnjt ?nd see the laurels and the honors! Love shews its blessings in store in the future. Many happy Christmas days be to them. There arc the maiden", the dear little maidens ! God bless them for their brightness and cheer on the Christmas !

As a polishedorttor, Dr. nicks is pcciJcP?. Unfortunately for Charles ton, ho has givcu offence to the staid old city, and has already left for Macon. Ga. Monday morning dawned with the renewal of th etrumpefs nnd squibs and crackers which had been suspended du ring tho Sabbath, aud which continuod uninterruptedly nil day . Egg-nog every where, every body drank egg-nog. nnd hot punch and tom-nnd-jerry were so freely partaken of all around that we wore almsst persuaded to try somo. The girls were in (ho streets again all day, and we were distressed again. Af ter paying a few visit*, and finding these dear pretty girls just as engaging and tantalizing inn-doors as on the streets and finishing up our business, we regret cd to realize that the time of our depart ure had come. ? So with a heavy farewell to tho old city, whom we had met under such fa vorable auspices, and to its business and noise, and its pretty girls nnd their short dresses, we too our scut in tho car und woke up at the damee ! Fniauripuiion Day. Monday last urns celebrated by the colored people as Emancipation Day. A staud was erected in the Cottft Hotlac Square for the purpnte, ntid, at about o'clock P. M. the vast multitude of moving forms that mado btlsj our streets during that day, assembled in front of the platform to listen to tho speeches that were to be rur.de. It beiiig late in the aft moon, the usual preliminary routine was dispensed with. - The tnectioc was called to order by a brief but eloquent address. After this was introduced the speaker of the occasion, Mr. Benjamin Byaa, Hop rcscntaiire from this County. Mr.- By a s said : '?This is a day pe culiar to our race and to our history as a people. We must congratulate our selves upon tho rortirrenee of its anni versary. For any but ourselves to prop erly appreciate its pleasures is aa impos sible ns it would be unnatural. The anni versary of the Emancipation Proclama tion, will always remain a day that none but ourselves can cherish and Jove with that degree of ardor and enthusiasm which its ro-ocdur-rcnee ever warms and heats in our bosoms. The memories, the scenes, the recollections with which it is fraught can swell emotions in all hearts, but with nunc are 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 citizen*, in your exceeding joy. And where is the Christian, the true American citiien who does not! Is thero a mau upon this broad land that would change our condition if ho ;ould ? I think not. Christianity has advaneod, humanity has ndruueed, aud I believe to-day that if the question had to be re committed to tho J American people, Whether or not our race should be made slaves again, that tho verdict would be NO. \\ 3 are freo now! The obliga tio??? whi.jh devolve en us as citizens, is to render ourselves useful to tho coun try of which we form a part. So help mo God, I will!

''" The addresses throughout wero con aerrattro and exceedingly .conciliatory in their tone, and not harrangucn, as the Charleston Newa' Orangeburg correspon dent styles them. Every thing went off quietly, a fact wh:ch tfi mi* glad to chrouicie. And in the evening each man departed for his homo iu thought, in peace and deep sobriety. ? ??????-????i ? Usury Laws. Perhaps na Bill was ever introduced in the Legislature of our State, which was not of a poiitirul naturo, that elici ted tho general condemnation of almost the entire press to such a just extent, as tho Usury Bill recently introduced by Mr. Wilkei. Wo have maintained a strict silence on this ques:ion up tu the present time. The confidence we have ia the interest which our legislators should have and feel for our prosperity and our people; and especially that por tion of the tu which the revival of this deleterious and exploded system will in* jure mostly?tho merchant and the farm er?precludes the possibility of tho be lief on onr part that they could be in duced to give their sanction to any such absolete idea. Mr. Wilkes, wc have no donbt, is conscientious in his espousal of this cause We do not impugn his motives. But this we know; be bis motives what they may, ho is seeking to establish a law to work to the injury of the very ones, whom iu bis heart ho ?1 ?* i sires to benefit. And we ask him to ' think well before ho attempts to prose- ' cute his Bill further. Legislators should ; consider the interests Of .the Whole .State j in making laws, and not those of one man or ono County. Surely then, if Mr. Wilkes will do this (andere are unwilling to tbiuk that he will not) the Hill to re-establish the usury laws of South Carolina, will r cive no more at tention from him. We ask : Can the | present General Assembly, to net out their promised made during tho cam paign, send out an edict, under the broad seal of legislation, legalized and Gxed as a law, w h i c h will c! factually injure and cripple the com merce of our State! That will 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 deter capital from flowing iuto our State, but frighten the little that is here from our mid.it and make our march instead of progress slan one of retrogression ? The Char Irtton Kelt* has nobly fought and championed this subject, bringing as it did invincible argumouts against the systerr May it, in ks earnest solici tude for the welfare'of our people, reap the reward of ' * labors, and have cause ore long to rejoice with us at the re explosion of so retrogressivu an idea CHARLESTON, S C, January 4, 1971. Ufr. ArttVor?Chrisfmss gfid Nur. Year's holidays are passed, and with them we have buriod the old and born a neV epoch hi our history as a people, for every ensuing year is and will hereafter bo inaugurated by the Celebration of that day, which has made us, as a Na tion tho foromosl champion ol human liberty among the civilized world. Tho ctnancipation of slavery, waged by a necessity of war at first, turned out to be tho foundation of a new political edi fice erected as it is upon tho basts ol an equal political right of all races, and color, giving the black man a copartner ship in the management of this great country with the 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 in taeso festivities : They turned out with a will, men women and children, clad in their holiday ottirc, and whosoever studied tho facts seen in the streets, could not fail to observe, the expression of joy and happiness, that marked every dusky countcnaneo and gave evidence, how keenly they all felt, thst this wu* their especial day of joy. -Sri-.-?. Early in the moniiug uf Monday, tiic streets were beginning to fill with happy from every direction end ' ffis4Mst>dy tramp of tho different militia coipipaoies, ?18 they made their way to the parade rondeuvous, prepared in for the tight of a military'display. The lino of troops formed on Broadway street, the right wing resting on tho corner of King street. It was composed of 8 Compa nies of the 1st liatallion of S. C. N. G. under command of Major S. Pickson. Tho Bstalliou presented an excellent appearance, especially Bandolf hs KifJe men, who in their *gaudy uniforms nnd with their'flnc soldierly bearing proved to the spectator, that the colored race make excellent soldiers. After an in spection by Brigadier Gen. Whippcr aud his staff, the troops paraded through tjie principal streets of the city, followed by the . civic societies linder Mr. T. J. Miickisy as Marshall. Although the processfVn was in itself a large ?nie and the streets thronged by a great crowd, yet not a single instance of disorder oc curred, nod the whole day was character ized by that decorum, which ought to mark the celebration of a? import.;**.: historical event. ? The city is now agatu lb her every day garb and the strangers who congre gated herd to spend their Holidays are 1 or have already returned to their re spective homes. Tho members of tho Goncfal Assembly from this County and the adjoining ones, who have either spent the recc'r- here Or paid us a short visit are preparing to return to their of ficial duties and to morrow will f-cc the Legislature rgaiti ssftsmbla'd. Let u? hope that tho New Year will be a hap py one to tho State of South' Carolina-.
