THe PnIsrrn.-Thc night grows late

TnE PRINTEn.-1hc night grows late
the streets arc hushed-lhe moon.
beams 0eck the deserted pavement, and
sleep strews its slumberous poppics over
the inhabitants Of the silent city. All
are at rest save the printer at his case.
Dreams, lovely as the winged cherubs,
hover above the rcpose OF man and
maiden visions pure as lilies, and
beautiful as the sunset Of early summer,
haunt the couchcs Of ma,ron and child;
but for the printer all is reality, toll end
wearincss.
How nimbly and chcerfully does he
adjust the faithful types, as If he took
no note of time-as il the duties that
were wearing ou, his life were more n
diversion then laborious OCCUPATION.
But amid their mono,onous discharge,
believe US, the printer thinks Of home
and sweet rest, and signs within himself
for the better lot Of which others arc
possessed. And yet there is no repose
for him, though the night tramps on, and
the jocund dawn will soon appear.
Why do his motions grow less rapid
why move his fingers in so deliberate
and mechanical way? Whence is the
smile that fingers on his lip, like the
frs, sun.beams of carly morning? There
is gentle presence at his side an eye,
blue as violets, glancing into his own
an accent, sweet as music, enhancing
his ear, and reaching his heart. 1t is
but moment ; it was only reverie
| it did not even win him from his &C.
cupation; it only caused his hand 10
falter, not 10 cease the printer wakens
TO busy toll again.
Ye who receive our sunrise favor
and wander, perhaps listlessly, over its
pages, remember, lha! it is the fruit O
toll, which was active and unliring
while you were quietly sleeping; tina
life is imprinted In its columns; tina
youl convenience and comfort is bough
with the price Of weariness.
There is ar electric "chord" which
being charged with sympathy, will car
ry the gentle burden even into dstan
hearts. We bespeak its agency in be
