''Wha, do you want TO stop for?" inquir.

LABOR TO MAKE A WArcH-Mr Dent,
IN lecture delivered before the London
Royal Institute, made an aluson to the
formation of watch, ana stated that a
watch consists of 992 pieces, and that 43
trades and probably 2i5 persons are EN-.
ployed in making one of these little ma
chimes. The iron Of which the balan ce
spring is formed, is valued at something
less than far,hing;this produces an ounce
o. siesl worth 4 4d, which is drawn into
$3.50 yards of steel wire, and represents
IN the market Ella Is; but still another pro-
cess OF hardening this originally farthing's
worth Of iron, renders it workable into T.
$50 balance sr:sings, which will realize, a,
the common price OF 60 sd each, coo IS,
the effect of labor alone. Thus il may be
seen that the mere labor bestowed upon
one iarthing's worth of iron gives ii the val
ue Of ESQ IS, or $4,562, which is Is, $50
times its original value.

THE SORROWS OF THE POOR.

The poor man hath a lonely lot,
To misery allied:
HIS very being is forgot
Among the sons of pride.
He rises with the morning light,
And labors through the weary night
A scanty meal to gain;
Then lays his weary head to rest,
But anxious cares disturb his breast
To slumber is in vain.
The cold glecr, the whitening scorn,
That meet him on his way
The spirit bowed, and sine VS. worn
BY premature decay.
brow o ershadowed by despair,
The trembling gait produced by care,
The constant dread OF ILL.,
These minglc with his every dream,
And hope hath no consollng CLEAN
To pleasant thoughts instil!
Alas! to him the changeful earth
Hath features ever sad;
For when the summer wakes It's mirth,
He only is not glad.
For what to him is Natures smile,
That may another's he art beguile,
Bpt cannot pierce the shed
Where he is wasting life away,
Unheedful of the night or day,
So long it brings him breadl
Gods blessing or the verdant fields,
When sunshine dwelleth there;
And every flower that fragrance yields
Becomes more sweetly fair!
In truth tbs beautiful to view!
But ripening corn and violets hue
Are hidden from the poor!
They cannot watch the seasons change,
To them all blithesome scenes are strange,
Their sense of joy is Ger.
Within close and fetid room,
Through sickness and in age,
They labor on, and pass in gloom
Their life declining stage
The slaves Of want!-whie those who have,
And from the depths OF woe could save,
E,ade their baggard mein,
Nor mark the signet death hath placed
Where many sorrow could be traced,
And painful years be seen
The poor! oh, mock not those who weep,
The wre.ched aud the lionel
For heaven doth surely record keep,
Wnen earthly aid is gone:
And at the bridal feas; the guest
May be the mortal leastwise blest
Among his fellows here.
Then cheer the poor mans solitude,
And smooth the briars on his road
To k;ndIier lands elsewhere!
