THE HOLIDAY SEASON.-That it is good to keep alive the general spirit wbioh belongs to the celebration of the great holiday season which is now approaching, and which manifests itself in that characteristic feature of the Christmas festival, the bestowment of tokens ot friendship and kindness, as weH as charitable gifts-, hardly admits of a doubt. There is sn endless variety of useful, beautiful and ornamental articles which are prepared as holiday presents fer tho young and.old, and there is scarcely a dwelling in.thc land, from tho luxurious residence of wealth, to the narrow room of joverty, whose in? mates are not considering what may be most suitable, and properly attainable to gratify the a csiro peculiar? ly inspired by tui? festival, to make others happy. Thc wish of those who have the means for such purpose is to learn where the articles which suit best the occa sion, and their tastes and circumstance', may be had. The usual medium is the ad \>r ti -, inp coln x ns of THE NEWS, to which the community looks in or? der to ascertain where they arc to find most conve? niently, and to the best advantage, thc valions things they desiro. Wbat to get for Chris'mas, and whare tho exact thing wanted is to be found, are to be the prevailing questions for tho time, and tbess are questions which advertisers who are expecting an active trade will be sagacious enough to find thc proper means ol answering. It it to tho conve? nience of beth sellers and purchasers that thozs transactions should take-place at aa i arly a penod as possible, giving tho former tho rd vantage of a prompt di; position of their stock, and assuring io the latter an opportunity of making their selections with mere deliberation thanie possible in bo hurry and confusion of the thronged shops ata later period.

Peter Gedis was arreste 1 yesterday for stealing apples from the store of Mr. Hogan, in Meeting" street.
