We lay many portion Of the earth
under contribution, almost in every hour
Of our lives. Even in the simple busiS
ness Of refreshing ourselves with a
good breakfast, we employ or consume
Ses products of many regions. The
tea we drink comes from CANA, or per.
haps il ls Mocha coffee, from Arabia;
the sugar with which we sweeteu il,
from the West Indies our porcelain
cups aud saucers were probably made
: i'd France the silver spoon with which
each is provided, once lay dark aud deep
ln the mines of South America /; the
table itself is mahogany, from Jamaica
or Honduras; the tabIe-cloth was man
ufac,ured from vegetable production
in Ireland the tea-pot is probably of
English block tin; and the steel Of
which the knives are wrought, may
have come from Germany or Sweden;
the bread is made Of wheat, raised prob.
ably in Michigan; and the butter, if par
ilcuIarly good, must have come, Phil
adelphian will say, from the nolghbor-
hood of his owa CITY. If we are IN the

wool, made into cloth in England, aud

waistooa, is of fabric wrought in
France, the upper feathers of his mo-
rocco boots have come from Barbary,
and the soles are made OF hide from
South America. His white hand, COW
cred with KID leather from Switzerland,
iauntly bears little cane, made OF
whalebone from the Pacific, the agate
head of which was brought from Gers
