Christmas cometh but once a year, And Christmas of eighty-eight is here, wit ii all its joys and right good cheer, And pleasures more than usual, While we, the hearty Xlarrier boys, - Unmindful of child's smaller toys, Hope you'll help to increase our joys, While sing to amuse you all. Ev'ry night, in every street, In Summer's dust and scorching heat , Or Winter's cold and storm and sleet, There plods along the Carrier, And should he chunce to reach you late, You fret and scold and scratch your pate, And say, "Why does he hesitate?" That idle, lazy tarrier. Sometimes we're sick, sometimes we're lame, Sometimes we stop to see some game, But still we "get there all the same," Thanks to our health and hardiness ; And when you've read the night's Reviews, Which always give thi latest news, No longer then will you abuse The boys for fancied tardiness. Since Christmas last a year has fled ; . Hearts have rejoiced and hearts have bled, But brigHter skies our hopes have fed, With joys beyond comparison, And while we've much to make us glad, The last election made us mad, ; For swapping Cleveland for a Had, That little Benny Harrison. ' ; In fact we've little cause to growl. In town or State, though Bads nay .howls?- We have Fowler, the State has Fowle, Both of the genuine Democracy. Our Mayor's earned our warmest praise, He's down on all unseemly ways, -With twenty dollars or thirty days, On the Radical aristocracy. O'er all our varied city affairs, He's on the watch, and constant cares, And when a tramp or ruffian dares To behave in the least refractory. In fact, whatever man may sin Against law, our city within, The police will hustle him in In a manner quite satisfactory, Great the change the year has brought round Adding to joys that here abound, We've now a railroad to the Sound, For all who would like a ofay's pleasuring ; -Where you may shoot game if you wish, Or in the Sounds catch lots of fish, Or oysters of which to make a dish, -v ' . The thoughts of which are worth treasuring. The Review is never inclined To be one of the boastful kind ; But surely it don't ran behindfHv We can say without being a fictioni&t. Subscribers who've paid in advance, Would cause surprise had you a chance To give a careful, searching glance At our everrincreasiiig subscription list. It's patient toiled for twelve long years ; Strong in hope, undismayed by fears, Nor mindful of the scoffs and jeers Of all who would'show their friendlessness. But with warm love for the true heart That's cheered it on, e'en from the starts Ever ready to bear a pari In a toil that almost means endlessness. Now on this happy Christmas time, (Hoping pardon for this poor rhyme;) You'll think how much a quarter or dime Would sweetly and certainly tickle us. Even" a dollar from out your purse Would make you not financially worse, And we'd "hail you in gratified verse, As a genuine old Saint Nickle-us, We hope that all the girls and boys ' Mav haye their fill of Christmas joys, An4 smaller ones get lots of toys', To gladden the festivity. With hearty greetings now for all, Both old and young, both great and small, And fat and lean, and short .and tall, In honor of Christ's nativity. And now nnr simiile son" is sun", (Our motto's "Go it while you're young,' ) But then, an older, abler tongue . . Would make tho theme more glorious. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, ' To parents fond and children dear, Wo wish yon all, with wino to cheer, Bat pray don't get uproarious. What splendid Xmas weather. It was pleasant enough on Christmas Day to be with doors open and win dows up and to sit out on the piaz zas. The weather for nearly a week past has been truly delightful, al though unseasonable. It is at an end, however, as a big cold wave has been developed up in the North west and is sloly moving in this direction. Knights of the Golden llagle. At a meeting of the Knights of the Golden Eagle, held last night, at their hall on Third street, the fol lowing officers were elected: N. C G. W. Carter. Vice C D. D. Cameron. H. P. R. M. Capps. S. H. G.P. Quinn. V. H. J. S. Ellis. "Not a Green Christmas." -This has not, by any means, been a "green Christmas." There was nothing to make it green besides -a lot of holly and misteltoe and a few newspaper, men A "green Christ mas' moans one where there have been no killing frosts and we have had lots of these this season. The Phantastiquea. The D. Q. L's were out on Xmas Day, small in number, but enormous in rig. They had a fine time and attracted a great deal of attention. About a hundred promised to come out but theydid'nt get there, more's the pity. ' There was a colored club of fan tastic, on parade. There was. a large number of these and they, had a wagon load of music along. They also made a very fine display. City Court. There was a small crowd assem bled at the City Court this morning and the following cases were dis posed of: Jerry vAllen, disorderly conduct, judgment -suspended. Florence. Canady, assault and bat tery, - d iliargedr ;.: r - . Fred Merritt, stealing a ride on a street car, discharged. Julia Murray, disorderly conduct, judgment suspended upon payment of costs. " -" Gus Braxton, disorderly conduct, case continued. Running After lieynartl. The fox hunters hereabouts had some very line sport on Xmas day. Three of the Goldsboro Club came down and there was a fine run, with a pack of about 60 dogs. Several starts were made until at last the dogs struck a warm track "Jback of Mr. J. B. Harris' place and ran the fox down. The bush was claimed by Mr. Hunter, of Goldsboro, and Mr. Willie Morrison, of this city, and we have not heard to whom it was awarded. There was also some very good sport yesterday and two foxes were run down and caught. . Christmas Conflagrations. Christmas Day was enlivened by several small fire alarms. Fjor only one was an alarm sent out for the department, and that was in the af ternoon, when a, hole was burned in the roof of a small frame dwelling on Castle street, between Sixth and Seventh, owned by Mr. Elijah Hew lett. , There were two alarms yesterday. The first came from a two-story frame dwelling, on Nixon, betwepn Fifth and Sixth streets, belonging to Fred Ancru m, colored which wag destroyed. There was ncTinsti ranee. The firemen prevented the flames from spreading, though three dwell ings on premises adjoining the burn ed building were damaged to the amount of about thirty dollars. Two of these buildings belong to Mr. J. P. and Mrs. Anna Chapman.and the other to Sampson Isler, and are in. sured. -f " The second alarm came from Eighth, between Bladen and Har nett streets, in a house -owned and occupied by TJato Sueed. The fire was speedily extinguished, and the damage was flight estimated tit about thirty-dollars, and covered by ! insurance with Messrs. Smith i j Boatwright. - j There wasalsoaif alarm this mom i ing, at 3 o'clock, senf in from box t 4i. It was caused by the burning : of a one-story -frame building on the ! corner of Orange and Eighth streets, o'wned by Messrs. Kidder and Brad hy and occupied by Mr. E. Y. Pol lock. The building and furniture were nearly all destroyed, but the loss was covered by insurance. . . - - PLEASE NOTICE.-. . 7 We will bo glad to recelTo comintiEicatlo from our friends on any and all subject ' general interest, but , ;-.'- ' The name of the Trrltev must always be fur nlshed to the Editor.' . -.- -. s Communications must be written only 'on one side of the paper. rersonaliues must be avoided. : - " " .
