The Dignity Of Labor.

Man in Eden was in blissful state
Uncalled to toll, he had spread around
him all that could cheer his heart and
render existence what God designed it.,
state ofperfect happiness. The sweet
est perfumes Of Nature were waited on
breezes soft as the earliest summer
zephyr. Every where grew in profusion
the choicest luxuries; and if hunger call
ed, Adam had only to reach forth and
pluck the delicious fruits; or, if he
sought repose, nature had spread for
him messy couch beneath some shelf
ering tree overhung with vine clad dra-
perry, protecting from all chilling damps;
where with Heaven born innocence to
guard him, mans great progenitor could
rest; while cherub sleep poured DER his
soul sweet songs of newborn bliss.
But man forfeited this life of ease; and
as the angel innocence with fearful eyes
started from earth to seek her native
heaven, Deity pronounced the destiny
of man.
How simple, yet how full of meaning
"ClS tHC NoluS, III tle sweat Vi lHy
face shalt thou return to the ground.
Dust thou art and unto dust shalt thou
return" Mans history complete. How
trul y sin the sweat of his face" hath
man eaten his bread since that time.
But, though disgrace to Adam, IT is
not to his children. God commands
and encourages labor; and crowns it with
all these choice blessings which Adam
lost by his disobedience.
Yet, there are those who cannot bear
breeze that hath famed a laborers
brow; and affect to dispise the occupa-
ton in which perhaps their fathers made
the very wealth they now enjoy. Poor
unfortunates The laborer pities and
tolerates your folly, but he knows your
dependence upon him for almost every
comfort ofyour life.
The noblest and best of earth's inhab-
ltants in past ages, have been laborers,
working with their own hands, Envy
not, then, man or woman whose wealth
amassed by the labors of others, enables
them to drag out 4 life Of likeness and
ennui, but remember the laborer has
illustrlous ancestors. Thank God, it is
an honor to labor. The farmer may
sweat at his axe or his scythe,-the me-
chanic at his bench or his anvil-the
sailor may mingle his sweat with the
dashing spray of tempestuous ocean,
and when his toll is Ger, can wipe the
moisture from his face, and stamped
with the redeemed nobility of that ma
ture which was created little lower
than the angels can with a grateful
heart looked up to his Heavenly Father
without fearing his displeasure. And
where God approves, there is honor.

Mary Jane.

S"hC'
I've had full many pcnsive thought,
or sadder ones my share;
And some are mine with gladness fraught,
And many mine of care;
And some of hope, and some of fear,
Have chequered life's young chart;
But one there is of all most dear
The anchor of my heart!
Mid triumph, grief or quiv ring pain,
A welcome guest
Within my breast,
NV cherished Mary Ianei
Full many dark and stormy day
Full many dreary night,
Has met me on LIES weary way;
And yet the sky is bright;
Or, lift cloud. the clouds assume
far less threal'ning form;
And icy thoughts that trail in gloom,
Grow lighter, bright and warm.
Beneath the talismanic reign,
Hope rises DER
The wreck once more,
With gentle Mary Jane.
Eve known some fitful dreams of fame;
Some warnings of desire;
The trick and wtchcry ofa Name,
Has been to me a fire
A meek, halt-tearlul fire that burns,
BY flashing Fancy caught;
That llickers, dies and fits by turns,
On the altar of quick thought;
But yet why should e'er complain,
While am left
The priceless gift
That can the soul from anguish lift
My trusting Mary Jane?

The man who has attained that calm
equanimity which qualities him to look
down upon the petty evils Of life with
Indifference; who can so far conquer the
weakness of nature as to consider the
sufferings Of the individual of little mo-
ment, when put in competition with the
welfare of the community, is alone the
true philosopher.

If the stars were to appear but one
night in a thousand years, how men

which had been shown But every

beauty, and light the universe with their

Mr.. Editor:-I have been reading
them pieces written by f. against the
Sonnies, until | can't stand it much
longer.
The Teller is so played smart that
there's no doing any thing with him :
and then he has so much larnin with his
smartness, that | am afraid he is going
to use us Sonnies up, unless we adopt
some plan to get rid of him. You see
how he kotes scri pier, grammer, poetry,
history, camp meetins, Sc, and rolls
them all up like great snow balls, and
chucks them without mercy right at we
Sonnies, until my dander in gitten up,
and am almost bilen over.
Now Mr.. Editor, tell you have con-
cluded that we must get clear Of E. or
we are to be used up, coat and trousers.
My plan is this. You know uncle Johns
Tor as he calls himself Jack Downing)
time has expired on Salt River, where he
went to pilot some very distinguished
gentlemen, more than a year ago and as
lie has engaged to pilot another party of
very distinguished Higher Law and
States Right gentlemen, or, what you
may call real distructives of all that is
good-such as Seward of n. Y, and
Rhett of S. G. g. Co.-and as there has
been several desertions lately from this
party, it is feared their force will be too
weak to stem the current, unless there
be some accessions to their ranks,
propose this: that we get E. in to fill up
the rank and file. This can be done, if
the Sonnies will be at all expenses.
therefore order all of those non-pay-
ing members to pay into the Treasures
of their societies the sums due, by the
first day of April next; and this fund to
60 to paying said Els travelling expenses
to the head waters of Salt River; ne, to
be consigned to the care of Jack Down
ing, chief pilot of said waters.
And farther order that Sonny, your
correspondent, have ready said Els pass
ports, duly signed, sealed and delivered
Oh the day above mentioned.
Given under my hand and seal,
RICHARD DOWNING.
Coop SENsE.-Wlat we call good
sense in the conduct of life, consists
chiefly in that temper of mind that ena-
bles its possessor to view at all times,
with perfect GOODNESS and accuracy all
the various circumstances of his situa-
ton, SO that each of them may produce
its due impression on him without any
eXaggeration arising from his own pecu-
liar habits. But to a man of ill-rrgula-
ted Imagination, external circumstances
only serve as hints to excite his thoughts
and the conduct he pursues has in gen.
eral far less reference to his real situa-
ton, than to some imaginary one, in
which he conceives himself to be placed;
in consequence of which while he ap-
pears to himself to be acting with the
most perfect wisdom and consistency,
he may frequently exhibit to others all
all the appearance of folly.
OTrue politeness is perfect ease
and freedom. 1t simply consists in
treating others as you would love to be
treated yourself.
Like is to be treated with like is the
principle of homeopathy. OF course,
therefore, homeopathic doctors expect
only homeopathic fees.
