FOREST WORsHIF.

rBv E. Elliot the English Corn Lac rhymler. ]
Within the sun-lit forest,
Our roof the bright blue sky,
Where fountains flow and wild flowers blow,
We lift our hearts on high,
Beneath the frowns of wicked men
Our country's strength is bowling;
But. thanks to God they can't prevent
The lone wild flowers from blowing.
High, high above the tree tops,
The lark is soaring free;
Where streams the light through broken clouds
His speckIed breast see.
Beneath the might of wicked men
The poor mans worth is dying;
Bnt thanked be God! in spite of them
The lark still MARBLES flying.
The preacher says, ''Lord bless us"
sLord bless u.s." echo cries;
amen ~ the breezes murmur low,
"Amen," the riII replies;
The ceaseless toll of wo-worn hearts
The proud with pangs are paying!
But here, o God of earth and heaven
The humble heart is praying.
How softly in the pauses
OF song re-echoed wide,
The cushat's COO, the linnct'sl lay
Ger ril and river glide!
With evil deeds Of evil men
The affrighted land is ringing;
But It'll, o Lord the pious heart
And soul-toned voice are singing!

are very high, the duty on colonial cot

twenty-five millions Of pounds annually.

be increased one hundred millions o.

The substitution in Great Britain of
cofeeifor beer and spirits, has increased
its consumption to such an extent as to
call the attention of government to the
propriety of reducing the duties on the
importation of it. as one ofthe most eff
cient means Of producing moral reform
among the people. The examination be-
fore parliamentary committee, of seve-
raj keepers of modern coffee houses in
London, gives curious and interesting
view of the progress of the habit of cof.
fee drinking as substitute for dram
drinking. 1t seems that there were moi
over ten or twelve of these coffee shops il
London, twenty-five years ago; now they
number 100, and they are increasing
at the rate of 100 year. The price
per cup for coffee is from Id to Sd; anc
one of the keepers, who charges lad pc
cup, testifies that he has from 1900 II
1900 persons daily at his house
