(By Lady Cook, nee Tennessee C. Claln.l
The happy eeaion of Cbristmaaia onoe
more oloee npon ne, destined to bring
joyfnlDesa and mirth to milliona of
bearta, but bitter gRdneee and a aenae of
ntter loneliness to tbe forlorn. Heaven
pity those who at this festive period have
no smiling faces of dear ones at their
board, or, worse still, possess neither
home nor means nor friends. When
most families are annually gathered to
gether in Joying oommunion, it ia meet
that tbe common sympathies of humani
ty should be most strongly stirred on
behalf of tbe wretched and the outoast.
It is unquestionable that our Cbrist
maet festival is of Pagan origin; that it
is tbe survival of sun-worship one form
of that great and universal phallic oreed
which would seem to be as old, and at
ubiquitous as mankind. Who can say
how many thousands of scores of thous
ands of years tbe souls of men were
moved to hope and joy by tbe return of
tbe son to vivify and bless the earth?
The end of the wintrr solttjcn was a
period of xtejtanoy and promlee, oele'
brated by joyful feasting, ourious ous
toms, and appropriate worship, and the
first day of every week was dedicated by
our Anglo-Saxon ancestors to the solar
deity. Christianity appropriated tbe
Pagan festivals to its own oolt with as
few innovations as possible, so as not to
shock too rndely tbe conservative sus
ceptibilities of its converts. And thus
the time of year of tbe universal Sa
turnalia was fixed npon as the 'precise
period of tbe birth of Christ, tbe spirit
ual Sun, "the Sun of righteousness.''
Wbo was to bring gladness and healing
beneath His wings. Tbe Soriptural
phrase ie a plain allusion to tbe Solar
serpent worship whiob prevailed in
Syria, as in this country and throughout
the world. An ancient hierogram of its
divinity was a oirole, egg, or sun, with
hovering wings.
Tbe Yule olog or log was emblematic
of tbe same Baored fire. Tbe sun's name
in Welsh was Haul; in Breton, Heol.
The Anglo-Saxon name for Christmas
was geol or iule; Danish and Swedish,
jul; Icelandic, iol or jol; and English,
Yale. Thus Yule plainly mant tbe fes
tival of the Sun. A year was often
oalled a sun by tbe anoients, and Yule
was the time when tbe old sun died and
tbe new one was born. Thus tbe birtb
of Christ coincides with the birtb of tbe
sun.
Warmestry, in bis "Vindication of the
Solemnity of tbs Nativity of Christ,"
1648, says: "If it doth appear that the
time of this Festival dotb oomply with
tbe time of tbe Heathens' Saturnalia,
this leaves no oharge of impiety npon it;
tor, siooe things are best cured by their
oontrariea, it was both wisdom and piety
in the ancient Christians (whose work it
was to oonvert the Heathens from sucb,
as well as other anperstitions and mis
oarriages) to vicdioate auob times from
the service of tbe Devil, by appointing
tbem to tbe more solemn and especial
aervioe of God. Tbe Blazes are foolish
and vaine, aud not countenanced by the
church.
"Cbriatmaste Kariles, if they be snob
as are fit for the time, and of holy and
sober composure, and Deed with Chris
tian aobriety and piety, they are not un
lawful, and may be profitable, if they bs
Moebeim informs as that Gregory Thau-
maturgos "allowed tbe Christians to
dance, sport, and feast, at the tombs of
tbe martyrs upon their respective festi
vals, and to do everything tbat the
Pagans ware accustomed to do in their
temples daring the feasts."
It was not until tbe fourth century
tbat Christ's Mass wss instituted, and
tbe Eastern Christians oelebrated it,
then as now, on the sixth of January,
and oalled it tbe Epiphany, while the
Westerns pitobed on tbe 25th of Decem
ber. We hope some day to give and account
of tbe oarols, lor these form interesting
pictures of the habits and thoughts of
oar ancestors . There was tbat strange
one sung by tbe sewer while bearing tbe
boar's bead, as he was followed by tbe
stately prooession of nooles, knights,
and ladies, into tbe banqueting hall in
tbe good old days when open house was
kept for all oomers by tbs great for
weeks together. It begins
"Caput apri defarto,
Reddens laudes Donino.
The boar's head in hand bring I
With garlands gay and rosemary ;
I pray you all sing merrily.
Qui estis iu convivio."
Tben there is tbat beginning:
"God rest yon, mery gentlemen,
- Let nothing you dismay ,
For Jesus Christ our Bavior,
Was born upon this day.
To save us all from Satan's power
When we were gone astray."
