New England and Virginia.

Two hundred years ago, in 1649, a
pamphlet was published in London, en-
titled "A perfect Picture of Virginia." in
which occurs The following passage =
"New England, four days. sail distant,
has trade TO and FRO, and takes from Vir-
ginia many cattle, much corn, and other
things. That New England is in a good
condition OF livelihood. but for matter Of
any great hope but fishing, there is not
much." Compared 10 Virginia, Gifts as
Scotland is 10 England, so much differ
ence, and lies upon the same land north
ward as Scotland does TO England; there
is much cold, frost and snow; their land
so barren, except a herring be put into
the hole you set the corn in, it will not
come up; and it was great pity, all those
planters, now about twenty thousand, did
not seat themselves at first at the south
Of Virginia, in a warm and rich country,
where their industry could have produ-
ced sugar, indigo. ginger, cotton and the
like commodities" So il seemed al that
time (says Mr.. Hildreth, in his History
of the United States, from which the
above is extracted y but how much has
New England, cold and sterile, with it;
sole staples of fish, ice, and granite, out
run, even in the career Of wealth, all the
boosted regions of tobacco, cotton anC
sugar!

And mus, my mother feel again
The dungeon rack, the crushing chsinl
The singing scourge, the bitter ieer,
Again fall on my tortured cart
As all defenceless thou hast stood
Beneath the ~infuria,s lssh-O God!
And scarcely dared to lit on high
Thy look Of speeches agony.
Thou, who was ever good and kind
To duty all thy thoughts Inclined
Whose love has been the one bright ray,
Cheering my dresr and toilsome way,
Before my lettering steps could stray,
From the lone cabin where | lay,
And sobbed away the weary hours.
Till thou might'st come at shut of flowers;
The sultry tasks Of daylight done,
To greet me, underneath the moon,
Stretching my arms in eager glee,
Al the first sigh, caught of thee,
Scarce turning from thy close embrace
10 note gay buds which thou didst place
Within my hand-though dearly bought,
The toys thy wesried steps had sought.
And when my growing strength could share
Thy midday tolls. IL Moons hot glare
Fell on my shrinking head, how soon
Thy mothers heart has bid me come
And smiled to see me gently laid
Beneath the cool Magnolia's shade,
While thy own loye-nerved arm has wrough
The double task my rest that bought.
And oh, when DER me sickness came,
Unmindful of thy toil-spent frame.
Can | forget the tender care
Which seemed each pain to sooth and share!
! could have deemed it sweet to die
Beneath that soft, that loving eye,
While thou didst hold my fevered hand,
And whisper of that better land,
Bright visions, which no longer cheer
My darkened path Of gloom and fear;
No! by thy love, and by thy woes,
My mother, ! can ne'er disclose
Thy refuge, though my spirits faint
At the strange pang, their threat'nings paint;
Yet | shall quail beneath the glance
OF those stern eyes, whose look. perchance,
May read within my trembling breast
The secret by no words confessed.
But unappalled, the death-closed ear
Their fierce, nienacing tones may hear,
And no revealing word be wrung
From deaths cold lip and palsied tongue,
oh! it is fearful thus to die!
Yet, in that brighter world on high,
May some sweet angel plead for me,
Dear mother. that l died for thee.

The Poor Mans DOingS.
BY MRS. MARY E. HEWITT.

OH. what were the pride of the rich mans gold,
Or the worth of each untitled rood,
Were it not for the rough, hard-handed poor
Who toll for their daily food.
Whatever Of labor the rich man needs,
From the poor mans hand must come
From the cradle rare Of the newborn heir,
TO the coffin and sculptured tomb.
The poor man swayeth the settlers ak,
Till the forests far retire.;
And the city springs on its phoenix wings
Der the brands of the Lighthouse fire.
Hebsndsth the earth with iron roads,
And the s,eam-fed courser guides
And fearlessiy he drives the steeds Of the sea
Wherever the rich man rides.
He tifls the plain till the ripened grain
is safe in the garner stored,
And with rifle and snare he hunteth the fare
That smokes on the rich mans board.
Tie twineth the costly robes of pride,
And reareth the stately dome
And cleaves from the clod the marble god
That stands in the rich mans home.
The guards Of beauty, the work of art,
Whatever your wealth hath bought
Nay-the very gold that your Golfers hold
The poor mans hand hath wrought.
Then health to the rude and thrifty poor.
And honor them
They mid the turmoil, earn the wages Of toll,
As your fathers did before.
And think the reward Of labor is health,
That wealth is industry's friend,
That change is earth's law, and soon the see-sa'
May rise at the poor mans end.

The Corn Law Rhymer.

The iron Poet of Sheffield, like the
Ayrshire p%loughman, sprung from the
working class. Like him, his songs are
the lays OF labor. But, unlike him, his
muse did not draw her inspiration from
The breath Of The open fields, perlumed
with daisies and adorned with hawthorn,
bu, from the hot atmosphere of furnaces,
ringing with the clang OF anvils and the
hoarse grating of machinery. Burns was
the bard of yeoman. ELLIOTT is The
bard of artisans. Both have touched
the deepest chords Of human feeling,
and walked echoes that shall vibrate till

MAN.WoRsHlP.-A pretty specimen of
man-worship is complacently recorded by
the Roman Catholic Observer. Ii seems
that a letter from the Pope 10 the Arch
bishop of Baltimore was received too

'On the Sunday after the CounciI,' con-
tinues the editor, lit was handed ,he We
ry Rev. DR.. Pise, who is one of the best
scholars in the country, a short time be-
fore he assembled the pulpit, with a re-
quest that he would read an English
translation Of it 10 the people. Alter a
hasty perusal Of the document, the Rev.
Doctor read it in English, in his w hap
ply, elegant diction, and concluded by
one OF those refined acts Of delicacy,
which betoken the good Priest, the pi-
Gus Christian, and the accomplished
gentleman. He kissed the letter, with
respect and vencration, saying, The

The PORE N THE STANDARD O F
CAsTILE.-lt is related that when the
Pope reviewed the Spanish troops at Gaze
Ia, the standard Of CASTLE, according 10
an old custom in the Spanish army, was
laid open at the feet Of his Holiness, who
ignorant of what was required of him in
return, asked the Bishop ofCuenca what
he was 10 do. That prelate replied, that
the Sovereign Ponliff being considered
Gods Vicar or earth, or as the King of
kings, the banner had been so placed in
order that he might tread upon it with
his sacred feet. After going through
this ceremony, and blessing the troops,
the Bishop of Cuenca kneli, and made
him the following Most Holy Father,
let me hope that | am worthy of receiv-
ing a boon from YOU, which is, that you
give me the shoes you wear, because,
after treading upon The standard of Cas-
tile, they cannot touch any but Spanish
ground. Another pair of shoes, provided
by the Bishop, were then brought, and
Plus presented his 10 that dignitury, who
has thus doubtless secured to himself a
Cardinals hat.
