A LESSEN IN NEEDLE-WCRK.

Not sigh was heard, nor word of complaint,
As home to her garnet she hurried
She Was sick with toll aud her soul Mas faint
And she seemed to be worn and worried.
She hastened On sadly at dead of night,
Without for moment turning;
Then working she strained her waning sight,
by a rushlight dinily burning.
From her aching eyes hot tears were shed,
Eut she spoke not Il word in SORROW;
She eazed on the face Of her child ufied,
And apxiouslY thought Of the morrow;
She I. ought, "a she pressed his feyerish hand
And drew her thin shawl around her,
Oh the boasted freedom Of Englana land,
And the slavery which ground her +!
Not half of her weary task was done;
She had no more coal for firing
She iancied she heard some lovely one
ext morning the dress adlniring.

Fer the Mother was tired end Chilly
Inc work, perhaps, might gain some ronown,
Bat whU'4 ,.in.s Of her nld her lily 3?
She bent DER the form of her slumberias child
On its wretched pallet lying
Her check grew pale and her eyes looked wild
Both mother aud child were dying
Lightly they'l speak Of them both next morn
Ia the pauper- ground they'll lay them:
They'll merely say, "a poor dressnakers gone !.

will thus be seen that the Post, with oil
its strong Anti-Nebiaska feeling, only
claims majority Of % in the House.
This majority might prove all sufficient to
defeat the Nebraska bill were il now to De
brought forward as new measure, but the
attempt 10 repeal it is Indifferent question.
and upon that issue the Post will fnd It
difficult, we think impossible, 70 obtain

The Lords Prayer.

n
A friend tells US an anecdote of Booth,
the great tragedian, which we do moi re-
collec, having seen in print. l, occurred
in the palmy days Of his fame, before the
sparkle Of his great black eye had been
dinmed by the bane Of genius, strong
drink. Booth and several friends had
been invited to dine with al old gentleman
IN baltimore, OF distinguished Kindness,
ulbanity and piety. The host, though
disappearing OF theatres and theaire-gong
had heard SO much OF Booths remarkable
powers, that curiosity to see the man had,
in his instance, overcome all his sciuples
and prejudiees. Alter the entertainment
was over, lamps lighted aud the company
re-seated in the drawing; DOM. some one
requested Booth as a peculiar favor, and
one which all present would doubtless APP
pfeeiate, TO read aloud the Lords Prayer.
Booth expressed lls Willingness to afford
them this qualification. and all eyes were
turned expe family upon him, Booth rose
slowly aud revelen,y from his chair. 1t
was wonderful TO watch the play Of emo
tons that convulsed his couliehanee. He
became deathly pale. and his eyes, trrhed
trembiingk upwards, were met with teas.
As vet he had not spoken. The silence
could be felt. Il became absolutely pain
full, until at lasi the spell was broken as il
by an electric shock, as his mentioned
voice, from white lips, sylabled forth, "Our
Father who art IN Heaven" g., with a
pathos and fei,il solemnity that Thrill
ed all hearts. He flashed. The silence
continued. Not voice was heard or a
muscle moved in this rapt audience, unit
from a remote corner of the room sub
dued sob was heard, and the old gentleman
CHER hosD stepped forward with streaming
eyes and to,tering frame and seized Booth
by the hand. Sir said he in broker
accents, tyou have Afforded me pleasure
for which nv whole future life will fee
grateful lam an old man, and every day

but never heard it before, merer, "Yo,

So great was the effect produced (say'
our informant, who was PRESENT. that con

longer in subdued monosylables, and al
most entirely ceased; and soon after, at al
early hour, the company broke up, and re-
