as inherited the reverence of it from our Cavaller ancestry. It is a day which has brought joy to the mansion and the cottage, the master and the servant, and has never been dimmed by a cloud till the present unholy war. Alas! how many of our Christmas greens has the war blighted; how many a chair stands vacant now around once happy fire sides; how many a di of death halls the birthday of the Prince of Pence! But Hope, the hope of the Christian, can strike its roots even into the grave, and he birthday of the Prince of Pence! But Hope, the hope of the Christian, can strike its roots even into the grave, and put forth the blossoms of Immortality in the very gateway, through which Death has strode a conqueror. Let us have faith in God and in our cause and country. May the next Christmas smile upon a land from which the deluge of war has subsided, and the Dove of Peace return from the dreary waste to bring many a green leaf of beauty to our altars, and consolation to our hearts!
