LABoR's THANKSGIVING HYMN.


BY MARY HowITT.
That must work thank thee. Cod
know that hardship, toll and pain,
Lik9 rigorous winter in the sod
Which don't mature the hardy grain,
Call forth in man his noblest powers!-
Therefore hold my head erect,
And, amid life's severest hours,
Stand steadfast in my Selfrespect.
thank thee, God, that must toll
Yon ermined slave of lineage high,
The game law lord who owns the soil,
Is not so free man asI!
Hewears the letters OF his clan;
Wealth, birth and rank have hedged him IN
Iheed but this, that am Man,
And TO the great in mind akin
Thank God, that like the mountain oak
NV lot is with the storms ofliiei
Strength grows from out the tempest shock;
And patience in the daily strife.
The horny hand, the furrowed brow,
Degrade not, howe'er slolh may deem:
lis this degrades-to cringe and bow,
And ape the vice we discsteem.
Thank God for toll, for hardship, whence
Come courage, patience, hardihood,
And for that sad experience
Which leaves our bosoms flesh and blood
Which leaves us tears for otheS's wo!
Brother in toll, respect myself;
And let thy steadfast virtue show
That man is nobler far than pelfi
Thank God for toll nor fear the face
OF wealth nor rank; fear only sin.
That blight which mars all outward grace,
And dims the light of peace withinl
Give me thy hard, my brother. give
Thy hard and toil-stained hand to me;
We are CO dreamers, We shall live
4 brighter, better day to see!

A QUEER CASE FOR THE DocToR.-As DR.. D.
of Paris was returning home on Tuesday se'nnight
from the Champs Elysees, with hls young and
pretty wife upon his arm, he was met by young
man in great perspration, and apparently much
agtated, who cried out so earnestly, doctor, fol-
low me, a mans life is in danger" that the doctor
let go his wifes arm, saying that he would return as
soon as possible. The young man proceeded to-
wards the Boulevards so rapidly that the doctor
obliged to call to him to moderate his pace. The
young man, however, still kept on, and DIR. D.
soon lost sight of him. Not knowing what to do,
the doctor waited awhile; but as no one came to in
innate where the patient was to be found, he re-
solved TO return home, naturally supposlng that IT
he was wanted he should be sent for. Upon al
irving at home; he surprised to find that his
wife had not come back. A night passed over, end
still no wife, and after various inquiries amongst
the lady's friends without effect, the doctor applied
to the authorizes. The investigation which vas
on foot gives reason to believe that the lady LETT
Paris the same evening in company with foreign
err in the train for Brussels or Osend. Nothing,
however, is yet known of the mysterious affair

PoTAro DIsEAsE.-The London correspondent Of
the Boston Atlas writes, under date Of August 10:
"Itis now a we'll authenticated fact that the pota-
to crops in England and Ireland are already nearly
lost by the same disease that spread widely last
season. There is not field in either country that
is not either totally partially blasted by this Pest
lenal disease The very aoine will not eat the dis
eased potatoes, and yet the poor people are COM
PEELED to eat them or starve! Whenever this is the
case very fatal fever RACES, and sudden deaths oc-
cur IL is stated that diseased potatoes act upon the
human frame a slow poison, which eventually
destroys life. In some villages, where blghed pO-
tatoes have been eaten the English cholera prevails
to an alarming extent and the inference is that this
diseased food produces the cholera Ii is stated that
on fields where guanO has been extensively used the
disease is more destructive to the potato Even the
leaves of young and healthy trees have been affected
where potatoes have been planted They wlther
suddenly and fall off. The smell emitted from the
fields is described as most offensive, and kind Of
smoke arises from the ground, like thick mist
What the Iegions Of poor people in England and
Ireland will exist upon II is impossible TO say; un-
less government again purchases large quantities of
Indian corn for their relief they will be in most
depIorable condition Already in Ireland several
large meetings have been held by the suffering
masses, for the purpose of stating their situation,
and devising some means for their complaints to
reach the wealthy classes, and finally the govern
