London Printing Once,

By eight o'clock the whole body had arrived.
Many in their costume resemble common labor
ers others better Clad several are well dressed
but all bear in their countenances the appearance
of men of considerable intelligence and education.
They have scarcely assumed their respective sta
| tons, when blue mugs, containing each pint or
half pint of tea or Coffee and attended either
by smoking hot roll stuffed with yellow butter,
or by couple of slices Of bread and butter, enter
the hall The little girls, with well combed hair,
and clean, shining faces, bring their refreshments,
and carry them to those who have not breakfased
at home. Before the empty mugs have vanished,
a boy enters the hall at fast walk, with bum
die under his arm, of morning newspapers. This
intellectual luxury the compositors by friendly
subscription allow themselves to enjoy. From
their connection with tho different presses, they
manage to obtain the very earliest copies, and
thus the news Of the day is known to them the
leaders OF the different newspapers are criticised,
applaudcd or condemned--an hour or two before
the great statesmen Of the country have received
the observations, the oastigation, the intslli-
genoe they contain.
One would think that compositors would be as
sick of reading as grocer's boy is of treacle;
but that is not the case it is proved that they
not only pay for their newspapers, but often in
demnity one of their community for giving up
his work, and reading the news aloud to them
while they are laboring at their work they will
moreover, even pay him to read 10 them any
new book which they consider 10 contain inter
esting information. 1t of course requires very
great command of the mind to give attention to
what is read from one book when men are con-
stantly engaged in the creation of another The
apprentices and inferior workman cannot attempt
to do this, but the great number, astonishing as
1t may sound, can listen without injury to their
vocation. Very shortly after 8 o'clock, the whole
body are at their work, at which, it may be OBJ
served, they patiently continue, with only one
hours interval until eight o'clock at night

The very high prices of provisions in our mar
ket, especially meats and butter, continues to be
the subject of general complaint among our peo-
pie, many Of whom seem disposed, and in some
cases very justly, too we think, upon the dealers.

The n. Y. Journal Of Commerce has the follow
ing upon the high price of provision ''This
complaint is very general, but the cause of it
arises from the exorbitant profits exacted by
hucksters and retail grocers, rather than from
the actual DEAFNESS of provisions when first
brought to market. II is this that Expresses the
poor man, while he who is able to purchase in
considerable quantities, escapes, in measure,
the taxation-another illustration of the expense

A Aketoh.

mother was kneeling in the deep hush of
evening, at tho couch Of two infants, whose resy
arms were twined in a mutual embrace A slum-
Der, soft as the moonlight that fell through the
lattice over them like silvery veil lay on their
delicate lps-the soft bright ourls that clustered
on their pillow were slightly stirred by their gem
tie and healthy breathing, and that smile. which
Deems from the pure depth Of the fresh glad
spirit, yet rested on their red lips. The mother
looked upon their exceeding beauty with mo-
menfary pride-and then, as she continued TO
gaze on the lovely slumberers, her dark eye
deepened with an intense and unutterabe fond
ness, and cold shudderipg fear came over her
lest those buds Of life, so fair so glowing, might
be touched with sudden decay, and gathered back
In their brightness TO the dust. And she lifted
her voice in prayer rolemnly, psssionately, that
the Giver Of Life would still spare to her those
blossoms Of love, over whom her soul thus
yearned. And as the low breatbed accents rose
on the still air, deepened thought came over
her, and her spirit went out with her loved and
pure into the strange wild paths of life, and
strong horror chilled her frame as she beheld
mildew and blight settling on the fair and lovely
Of the earth, and high and rich soathed with
desolating and guilty passions
And the prayer she was breathing grew yet
more fervent, even to agony, that he who was
the fountain Of all purity, would preserve these
whom he had givenhe in their perfect innocence,
permitting neither shame, nor crime, nor folly,
to cast stain on the brightness with which che
had received them invested from His hand as With
q smile.
AS the prayer died away in the weakness of
the spent spirit, pale shadowy form stood bs-
side the infant sleepers. " / am Death" said the
spectre, "and come for thy babes-I am com
missioned to bear them where the perils you de-
precato are unknown; where neither stain, nor
dust nor shadow, can reach the rejoicing spirit
IL is only by yielding them to me you can pre-
serve them forever from contamination and de-
cay" A wild oonhict--a struggle as Of the soul
parting in strong agony, shook the mothers
frame, but faith and the love which hath purer
fount than that Of earthward passions, triumphed,
and she yielded up her babes to the spectre.
" Behold +" said Death as he touched the fair
forms, and the beauty Of life gave place to
boiler and yet deeper loneliness, behold, the
emile Of innocence is now forever sealed. They
viii waken where there is neither blight nor tenn
pest" And the benign power, whom We call the
spoiler, bore away the now perfected blossoms Of
Immortality to the far-of sky.
