gerning Star and Catholic Messenger. Jw OrLuAa3. URD.Ar. DZCNMUR, 26. 15s5. JUVENILE COLUMII- p1 TIE CONTRAST. It'was Christmas Eve. The white saow lakes as they floated lazily down, covered E everything with a garment of beauty. The pi warm light skine out from the windows of a gi Isrge mansion, and the shadows on the our- w tains pictured the beading branches of a ft Christmas tree with it tapers and toys and d fruit, and busy bLandsgiving to it the lastlov ing touches. At the upper windows, bright ii little faces appeared every now and then, 1 and sounds of merry voices and gay laugh- of ter, floated occasionally on the quiet eve- a, ningair. At length all wa silent, for the little a ones had said their prayers and" good night," and bad hung up their stockings in B the chimney corner for the good St. Nih- a olas to fill; loving lips had kissed them as .1 they lay down in their cozy little beds, and p their sleep was fall of bright dreams of the tl Christ-Child and the angels and the merry Christmas that would come on the morrow. ii A short distance from this scene of hap- r pinese, in a lonely hovel, was seated a a poor woman. No warm fire gleamed upon d the walls, no costly pictures were there; a but through many a crack and crevice the t chilly winds whistled and the dreary a snowflakes crept. Will the Christ-Child V pass in silence this home of poverty t t Upon a little straw in the corner two child- f ren, slept closely clasped in each others' arms c --little, pale children, with wan and anx- s ions faces. One of them moved, and cried e out, " Mother, mother, it is so cold I Does c the Christ Child know it is so cold t" The I mother heard, and had only strength to e kiss the little sufferer. "The Christ-Child I will come," she said; " I have seen Him to-night, and soon we shall all be warm." And the three slept in the cold and dark. ness. The drifting snow wreathed white chap- I lets on the brows of the sleeping children I and the mother, and covered them with a c shroud, white and pure as their silent hearts a -silent now forever; for the Christ-Child I had come and taken them to Himself. Christmas morning dawned, and the sun rose brightin the clondness sky. The bells I pealed forth a merry chime, and the sonund of the Christmas song and Christmas greeting was heard on every side. Happy hearts were full of Christmas joy, and sad hearts were lighted and consoled by Christmas hopes. Everywhere and to every one of goodwill-to some the gladness of earth, to others the joys of heaven. For if to the poor, the sorrowful, and the suffer ing, the Christ-Child seems to give little part in the joys of Bethlehem, it is only to unite them more closely with Himself in this world, and crown them more glor iousnely in the next. PARyTY OF REASONING.-I am always glad to tell you a tale when it occurs to me, and that is why I tell you the follow ing. A county-gentleman had'a small son who having been early taken about to the stables and the kennels and initiated into their secrets, had become quite a baby-ex pert in all matters pertaining thereto, and quite ready to give his opinion as to a horse or a litter of paps with as much ser ious certainty as though, instead of being a child, he were an old and hardened sports man and fancier. The country gentleman had the good fortune to be presented with twin daughters by his wife, and the boy, after his usual rounds among the animals, was taken to see the little creatures as they lay in their cradle. The child looked at them gravely, pulled their legs, pinched their arms, opened their eyelids, and, after a moment ot reflection, pointing to one of the two, said, "Keep this one."-Vanity Fair. DISRESPECT AT IIoME.-One of the dan gers of the house life is this habit of disre spect-that which is bred by familiarity. People who are all beauty and sunshine for a crowd of strangers, for whom they have not the faintest affection, are all ugli ness and gloom for their own, by whose love they live. The pleasant little pretti ness of dress and personal adornment, which mark the desire to please, are put on only for the admiration of those whose ad miration goes for nothing, while the house companions are treated only to the ragged gowns and thread-bare coats, the tousled hair and stubby beard, which, if marking the ease and comfort of the sans fason of home, mark also the indifference and dis tespect which do so much damage to the sweetness and delicacy of daily life. And what is true of the dress is truer still of the manners and tempers of home, in both of which we find too often that want of res pect which seems to run side by side with affection and the custom of familiarity. It is a regretable habit under any of its con ditions, but never more so than when it invades the home and endangers still more that which is already too much en dangered by other things. Parents and up-bringers do not pay enough attention to this in the young. They allow habits of disrespect to be formed-rude, rough, in solent, impatient-and salve over the sore with the stereotyped excuse : "They mean nothing by it," which if we look at aright is worse than no excuse at all; for if they really mean nothing by it, and their disre spect is not what it seems to be, the result of strong anger, uncontrollable temper, but is merely a habit, then it ought to be conquered without loss of time, being mere ly a manner that hurts all parties alike. FATHER's PROVERBse.--" Of all father's children, I love myself the best !" was the gentle reproof that met any little act of selfishness on ourpart. Sometimes it was merely appropriating to our use the best chair, or taking the best piece of cake, or failing to show a proper consideration for our brothers or sisters. Father had agreat habit of repeating these proverbs instead of administering the reprooof that is usual in such cases. If we were late at breakfast, or made our appearance with disordered dress or hair, we were sure to hear, in a very serious tone, " Like to an owl in an ivy bush, what a frightful thing am I." If, through our carelessness, anything wasbroken about the house, we were re minded that "The want of care does more damage than the want of knowledge." We dreaded the infliction of a proverb more than we would a scolding, and it made a greater impression upon our minds. The most effectnal way for a boy to learn a bee sees-by just putting his finger into the hive. TRIFLE&. (Mobile Register.] Saxe, singing of " Proud Miss McBride," plaintively refers to those at Who lve to grow rich By eaviag oandle.ends and stoh But even the vaunted economies of New I England are thrown in the shade by the ft peculiar value of trifles, in the hot strug- ft gles for bread in the geyost metropolis of the world. Itis ealculated that there is a profit of o fully £10,000 a year in Paris from an in-. dustry based on the collection and re- v manufacture of the cigar ends cast aside ft in the streets by smokers. Now, this col-. t leotlon is not your ordinary cljfomnter, k or rubbish bunter; he is a chasseur de ig- ti ares, which we might Americanize into a t stamp-hunter. He begins work at the p earliest peep of dawn, paying special at- t tention to such fashionable precincts as the a Boulevards, the Champs Elysees, gathering a up as be passes from street to street . stumps of all dimensions and qualities, or a purchasing them at wholesale prices from s the garooa of cafes. By seven o'clock the labor of collecting 1 is finished and the chasseur has carried its a results to his workshop. Here the better t stumps of the " Londres " and the better f description of cigars are sorted from the a common kinds; and with a working capi- t tal consisting of a block of wood, a knife z and sharping stone, the honest tradesman I produces a coarsely ouat description of pipe r tobacco. This, naturally, finds market far t from fashionable. It is sold to rat-catchers, a chiffonniers, street-sweepers and the like t at fair prices. And how these strange toil- i era of the sewers can afford to pay, is an- t other proof of the infinite resources of the i French mind in the utilizing of trifles. To as, in the South, there is as much moral as amusement- in this queer traffic. Did the people of the South-especially t of its cities-pay as strict attention to the utilizing of each small means of livehood, I the sum total would be sufficient to pre- 1 vent much of the cry about no work to do. If the street Arabs of Paris can live by collecting cigar stumps, may not a re spectable living be had here from manu facture of matches? If her street sweepers can buy the luxury of a regular puff, why need they who only walk the streets with hands in their pockets grumble because good cigars don't grow on the bushes The expression, " Of all others," though utterly absurd, may be called a respectable blander in one aspect, as in another, and more essential one, it is quite the reverse. .It is not simply a slip of the tongue or pen, but a slip of the head, and hence reflects on him who commits it a double discredit. In this aspect the blunder is anything but respectable. Yet the long roll of those who have committed it is thickest with names respectable for both thought and expression; so that it borrows from them a shadow at least of respectability. We are a reminded of this just at present by a pas sage in the recent banqueting speech of the British Premier, surely no common master of expression. " A war with China," e said Mr. Disraeli at the Lord Mayor's ban D quet, would have been a war with a coun try with which, of all others, England would not be placed in collision." Mr. Disraeli, we believe, is the last who has made this slip. And barely the last ; for Professor Proctor, in the Cornhill .laga sine, was only a few days before him. Al luding to Leverrier's discovery of Neptune, the eminent-astronomer said : "To the outside world indeed it was the achieve ment of all others most deserving of notice y in Leverrier's work." A short time before It that Arsene Houssaye, whose airy genius d begins and ends in expression, had said in r the Tribune : " In America, as well as here, you amuse yourself with the life of the springs and seaside. It is the place of all others to study society and fashion." There is here, indeed, a grammatical blan - der superadded, but possibly the transla - tor, some member of the Tribune's accom . plished staff, it may be, is responsible for e both. Mr, Hardy slips likewise in "Far y from the Madding Crowd," where referring i- to Boldwood, he says"nobody suspected se that he had shown unequivocal symptoms of i- that mental derangement which Bathsheba t, and Tavy alone, of all others, and at differ n ent times, bad thought of in connection I- with him." The offenders on this point, e however, are not merely among the crowd d of fine writers and the host of commonplace d ones, but also among those whose names we do not expect to die. Coleridge in f " The Friend" speaks of " truths of all s- others the most awful and mysterious," and te Milton, although he does not use this exact id expression, fairly revels in the confusion ie of thought which makes it what it is, sing of log of Adam and Eve as first seen by a- Satan from his " lofty stand " on the Tree h of Life: It 80 hand in hand they passed, the loveliest pair 1. That ever since in love's embraces met ; it Adam the goodliest man of men since born 11 Ad she the fairest of her dav3ters Eve. This, we think, will do. The force of blunder could no further go. Nor could the force of example in extenuation of n blundering. re SILENT INFLUENCE. - Little do we in know of the power of the unconscious in it fluence which we exercise on those around y ns. Like the unseen but ever active power -. of gravitation, so. the influence of our ex It amples and of our lives, though unknown it to us, may be uninterrupted and powerful. ae The words we drop are remembered by e- others long after we have forgotten them. Our actions, our tones of voice, our looks and motions, and our very peculiarity of thought and feeling and action, may be r's producing an impressiow'upon the minds of he others which we never know, and which we of can never remove. Actions have a louder as voice than words, and example is more po ist tent than precept. And thus things which or we say or do without thought, or conscionus ror ness, or recollection, may exercise an in at fluence upon those around us, not only while of we live, but after we may be silent in the in grave. Only tbhe day of judgment, which reveals the secrets of all hearts, can disclose Or the mighty eflects which our cond::ct may ir, produce. Srclude ourselves as we may us from the world, or even hide ourselves at from our friends, yet still tihe power of our example, the things we do, the things we ug leave undone, our likes and dislikes, our re- habits, our manners, our indulgences, our tes pleasures; all these may be fixing the 8." course of some one around 2s for time and rb for eternity. it _ _ d" Said a New York dry g,.... dea.te: " O course we lose money on every iece ,t "hos a goods; but, my dear mndlau, re ,!A su'. he enormonats quantities of theb- Wl 1 cte political ecouomists exp!al t The egg-Dases in InUta. iSibSner as Natiy.l A much more pleasing performance, N and one which might perhaps better have .been mentioned in conneotion with the exploits of the jugglers, is the" egg- CI dance." This is not as one might expect from the name given it, a dance with these fragile objects. It is executed in %hie wise : The dancer, carries a willow wheel w of moderate diameter fastened horizontally. upon the top of her head. Around this wheel threadeare fastened, equally distant from each other, and at the end of each of these threads Ia a slipnoose, which is m kept open by a glass bead. Thus equipped, the young girl comes toward the specta tors with a basket fall of eggs, which she a passes around for inspection to prove that they are real and not imitations. The music strikes up a jerky, monotonous strain, and the dancer begins to whirl around with great rapidity. Then, seizing an egg, A she puts it in one of the slip nooses, and, se with a quick motion, throws it from her in such a way as to draw the knot tight. The swift turning of the dancer produces a centrifugal force which streaches the 1 thread oat straight, like a ray shooting from the circumference of the circle. One after another the eggs are thrown into these slip nooses until they make a hori zontal aureole or halo abontthe dancer's head. Then the dance becomes still more rapid-so rapid, in fact, that it is difficult A to distinguish the features of the girl ; the moment is critical ; the least false step, the least irregularity in time, and the eggs dash against each other. But how can the dance be stopped I There is but one way-that is to remove the eggs in the V way in which they have been put in place. This operation is by far the more delicate of the two. It is necessary that the dan cer, by a single motion, exact and unerring, should take hold of the egg, and remove it from the noose. A single false motion of the hand, the taset interference with one of the threads, and the general arrangement is suddenly broken, and the whole per formance disastrously ended. At last all the eggs are successfully removed; the dancer suddenly stops, and, without seem ing in the least dizzied, by this dance of twenty five or thirty minutes, she advances to the spectators with a firm step, and pre sents them with the eggs which are im mediately broken in a flat dish to prove that there is no trick about the perform ance. CHALK.-- oSt people looking at this substance would take it to be a sort of hardened white mud. Such is not the case, as the microscope shows that it is nt othing but the agglomerations of creatures almost invisible. Bearing this in mind, one is astonished at the power of organic 1 life, which can produce masses that form a a rampart to the coast of England. Their minuteness is such that a single visiting card covered with a white layer of chalk contains about 100,000 shells. These are formed of carbonate of lime, and are so small that 10,000,000 are required to weigh a pound, and 150,000,000 to make a cubic foot of the same material. d __- -- r.

It is the aim of the Board of Commissioners to make k it a thorough Exposition of the Agricultural and r Mechanical Products of the Southern States, Meaico and Central America, but it will be open to competltors throughout the country, and the general premium list will embrace all articles comprehended in the general O design of an Agricultural and Industrial Exposition, including special premiumh for strictly Southern pro. o ducts. The Premium List, which is now in course of publ. cation, will be on a liberal scale, and the rules will provide for a just and impartial system of awards, by competent and disinterested jurors. The eair Grounds are generally conceded to be the handsomeat4p the United Statee, comprising 120 acres, within fifteen all"nde ride By street care from the center of the city. The grounds are shaded by a beautiful grove of live oaks, and the buildings, which are of recent constructlon, are amply snlficient to meet all the necessities of the most extensive exhibition. The Racing Ceurse, which is used by the Louisiana T Jockey Club at all its meetings, is justly famous throughout the country, and the accommodations for stock are unsurpassed. It is the first time that such an enterprise has been inaugurated at the South, and being held at a time when the city of New Orleans is thronged with thou h sands of visitors to participate in the festivities of the t Carnival, it affora unusual inducements to exhibitors if from every section of the country. The Commissioners earnestly appeal to the people of the Sthe outhef States to lend their aid and econagement to the Exposition, and to make it In all respects a com plete exhibition of Southern productions, and it is hoped that manufacturers, producers and others in every section of the country will participate. Ample arrangements have been perfected for the 15 transportation of goods and visitors from every section at reduced rates.
