NEW YEAR'S AY.—The first day of
the year was remarkable for the mildnees
of the tetnperatur , and in th afternoon.
when the weather was very pleasant, nu-
merous callers presented the c mpliments
of the season to their friends and enjoy
ed the usual hospitalities. Amongst t • e
refreshments furnished to callers, w ie
was the exception,
the • beverages be"
principally tea and coffee. Up tte
o'clock this social custom was contina
but still there was not the lad e num r
of visits of previous years. As an i
stance of the unusual mildness of t e
weather, we might state thatione lady n

of pansies plucked from the' garden
