The Daily Tramarrip
. = =
g CurstMas DaYi—Tiis. Noliday is
more generally observed by the Chiistian world than any other known to the
calendar, and its observance is not confined'to the Churches, the customns be-”
ing, many of them, of acharacter which
enlists all classes without reference to
creed. In the United States we have
adopted some of the most attractive
characteristics of the Christmas holjday in all other Christian countries,and
consequently our observance of thé day
. is of a cosmopolitan type, the people
to some extent enjoying with their:
families and friends the Christmas tree,
as they used to in their younger days
and in their far off homes. The “chil
dren’s festival” or Christmas tree, which
every German will rewember. among
D > the recollections of “Father land” has,
4 been adopted by us,'and is enjoyed as
:. well by grown le as by children, .
“4 In the person of Santa Claus we havé
_ the Knecht Rupert of the Germans, and
wi :» jt would be well if parents would adopt
: * more of the customs of Germany, aud
< make this annual festival a time when
the families are gathered together, and
7" a review taken of the conduct of each
during the year, the good and the bad.
2 We have also many good old customs
from England, among which none are
more pleasant than the Christmas dinner. So great was the weakness for
ag good things on this occasion in Engsae land,.that the proverb “He has more
business than English ovens at Christmas” came into existence. These with
: others of minor importance have come
to be features of the holiday athong us,
3) and if properly observed they are cer: tainly pleasant. Rest and recreation is
ES a blessing to mankind, while the gifts
wi and social amenities are calculated ‘to
x dévelop the best traits of human. nature. Oup charity on such occasions as
to-day should extend beyond the family
ons to the community, and so—far as we
Be can, without detriment to ourselves, ev«#ty house should be made happy. Let
those who have abundance remember
ie the poor, and send some little gift to
make their hearts glad to-day.
\ ' Buyine PReEsents.—The stores in
iS, this city, where Christmas goods were
ils, sold, were well filled with purchasers,
: notwithstanding the storm, and alarge
rE. amount of goods were sold. We have
never known a season when there were
00. “go many large stocks of holiday goods
by in this city as this Winter, and among
, ¢ the articles there weré very many of
oud great value. “ Buying presents even unat der such circumstances is not a pleasa ant task, as all know who have tried it,
vcs. the great trouble being that there are
two-tastes to be suited in all such purKS, Name CHanGeD.—Mr. Sargent writes
h, that he has procured a change of the
aame of the post office at Nevada City,
Colotado, to Bald Mountain. A great
, Confusion has been made by the diffi_ culty of distinguishing the difference
<p8" between Cal. and Col., as ordinarily
‘ written; and letters intended for one
dian Place very often first find the other.

Bald Mountain.

The Vital Statistics of California
Show that periodical ‘fevers and acute and
chronic disorders of the stomach and bowels;
are among the most prominent and fatal diseases in this State. Disobediencé to the laws
of health, as regards diet; the use of pernicious stimulants; and the wear and tear of
business excitement, and of ‘‘fast life’’ generally, have mach todo with the prevalence of
these maladies in our cities; while in the interior, and especially in the pold yielding dis
tricts, they are chiefly due to malaria, un“wholesome water, and the exposure and privation incident. to life in new settlements
and mining camps. Now, IT Is A FACT that it
is as possible to protect the human system
againet these maladies, as to guard life and
property against the incursions of assassins
andthe thieves. Strengthen the vital organization with HOSTETTER’S STOMACH BITTERS, and it becomes as capable of resisting
the active principle of epidemic or endemic
disease, as a fire proof safe is of resisting the
action ofcombustion. This is the experience
ofthousands whe have remained unscathed . *
by malarious disorders in the sickliest seasons, while their neighbors, wha neglected to
tone and regulate their systems with this unequalled medicinial stimulant, have fallen
thick and fast around them, Weakness invites disease. Vigor repels it. Help nature
to fight the good fight with infection, whether
it be-in the air, the water, or the svil, with
this matchless preparation~a compound of,
the rarest-vegetable extracts with the pures
‘of all diffusive stimulants. .
