The Labor OF the Sons.

The labor Of the Sons is labor of love-
They seek to pour into the wounds of ami
mostly, and strife, poverty and starvation,
and degradation, the healing balm of love
and affection, comfort and health, and res
pectability, and to re-bind and strengthen
the chord that links man 90 his All-wise Gre
ator. They would impress the mind with
the never-ending joys of a more exalted state
of existence, and emblazen TO his vision the
realities of a more glorious realm where pu-
rity is imbibed from the passing breeze
and where wisdom, health, riches, and hap
piness spring from an eternal FoUNT!
10 make men happy, here and hereafter
to inspire his soul with the conscious feeling
Of an eternal and blissful reception in diff
ferent sphere-to cover, forever, from his
eyes the dark forms of drunkenness and pow
erty, error and disgrace, of the past, by the
refulgent light of Divine Truth, that exhibits
a glorious future-to whisper into bis ear the
cheering prociamations of an era in which
the voices Of angels will be heard above the
clamor and confusion of intempernnce and
crime-an era in which the return of loved
ones will calm the mind, and turn the heart
of affection into one of gladness-an era in
which Death, the foe of all our race, shall
loose its fangs-one in which discord, misery
and shame, shall give way to kindness, hap.
piness and honor.
This is what the Sons labor to accomplish,
and oh with what JOY and gladness do they
perform their task. Notwithstanding the ma
ny hard speeches against them, by wicked
and ungodly men. Conscious of right, and
of purity of purpose, amid all the opposition
that meets them in their work, they are no
wearied. Nor will they cease their labor til
their errand is cOmpleted-till our race i
released from the shaekles of intemperance
and stand forth in their own true and i'm
: mortal dignity and splendor!

A New LIQUOR LAW IN FLoRIDA.-
Though the legislature Of Florida failed TO
enact a Maine liquor law, it has done the
next thing 10 it. According to a bill just
passed, alb licenses hereafter TO retail spiri-
iuous liqnous are To pay a tax of $500; and
persons offending are To I've fined $500 on
conviction. This tax, it is thought, will ope-
rate TO prohibit licenses to large extent, if
not altogether.
