This love of excitement, of worse has its
legitimate place in life and moiety. But its
place is not to be the substance of the feast,
but only its stucc. It Is not the food itself,
but only its flavor. When sought and gran.

injurious. Editors ought to use their influ:

press its extravaganccs. Lecturers and
preachers ought to choose their subjects and
to treat them, not to pamper morbid crav-
ings for mention, but to sharpen a healthy
curiosity for knowledge, to elevate the mp—

educate the public mind to prize a few

The winter festivals of the Holidays have
a natural as well as Christian origin. The
philosophy of mythology has reached
the boldbat pmbahb' true deductionfihat
nearly all the great myths, traditions and
futivals of heathen nations can be tuned to
their origin in the worship of the sun. The
most remarkable fact in natural phenomena
is the shining of the run, its rising and set-
ting as the god of theday. its approach and
recession as the gm of the year. To the
simple child of nature there was something
and and mournl‘ul in the daily setting and
the annual departure of the sun, the Divine
source of light and life. We can asily ap-
procrate th'n feeling by thesuddcning im-
pIesainn-atle upon omelves, in our med?
utive moods, by thealradows of the eve-
ning sunset. and the shortening days of an:
umnand early winter. But how much
more powerful this impression upon the
simpk and susceptible mildren of nature,
to whom the sun’s. presence, pmducing
fight and heat, stoul'for lites-d high-
m,producing dairies andoold, stood
for 8c‘mdath.
What more natural, the, then that, when
the sun, at his southern solstice, reached his
extreme limit. of departure and began to re

,Iabyloy' and Nineveh- .
The Congregational Church was filled
with an appreciathe aadieneuhst Stinday
evening, to listen to Rev. E. N Dunning:
lecture on “ Aasyris and Babylon in the
time of the JewishCaptww " .Thn apsqal
occult)- of the lecture was “$5th now
being studied In museums of “uniform lee
sous” now used by a e numbuv of Sun
,dgy schools without 11qu to duomlaa-
tion throughout the country. Next year
these lectures will probably be. extended
into England. It is proposed to go through
the whole Bible In the course of seven years
beginning with next January.
The lecture was illustrated by maps and
pictures, seventy in number, artistic-
ally designed and painted, of the coun-
try, cities, civilization, religion of ancient
Babylon and Nineveh. The pictures were
gotten up in London,.for the purpose, and
illustrated the mountains, rivers, sculptures,
has-relieves, inscriptions, etc, found in that
wonderful region. Some very curious scenes,
all of interest, were exhibited and intelli-
gently esplsiucd.
Among them we mention specittlly : The
Palace of SCIInnclmrib, at Konyunjlh, one
mile square, and lately disentombcd by
Leynrtl. The Colossal human-bended,
eagle-winged lions and bulls, twenty feet
high, found near the entrance doors of this
great palace. Illustrutions of warriors on-
gagcd In fighting, hunters chasing wild ani
mals, king's feasting, txccutiontrs torturing
and putting men to death, people engaged in
common occupations, all showing thegruud-
eur and powerof the Auyrinn. Babylonian
Empire, which swayed the history and dos-
linics of Central Asia, for more Hum album»-
and yours.
The reverend gentleman's descriptions
were graphic and occupied in their delivcrv
about one hour and :1 quarter. The pictures
were fastened together, illuminated by the
light of reflecting lanterns. and rolled oil
1an the manner of II panoramas.

It is yet several days before Christmas,
and while mindful of its approach, We had
not expected it visit so early from St. NlclIo~

flakes were coming down, the little fellow
in furs and dragging his sleigh, stalked into
our presence. \thther he came down a
chimney, in at It window, or through a
crack in the partition, we cannot say, but
there he stood, and sfter assuring himself
that “'0 were alone, came to our dealt, and
