TRUE BENEFAcToRs.- Charming sayS,
and with truth:-"The day-laborer, who
earns, with horny hands and the sweat Of
his brow. coarse food for his wife and chill
dren, whom he loves, is raised, by his gem
erous motive, to true dignity; and, though
wanting the reGnements of life, is a nobler
being, than those who think themselves
absolved by wealth, from serving others"
1t is worthy ofnote, that the men and wo-
men who think most highly Of themselves,
and most meanly Of others, are those who
render back to society, for the good things
they enjoy, the smallest return of personal
effort. The worlds true benefactors, and
therefore its true noblemen, are they who
serye it, humbly and earnestly, to the best
ofthe ability God has given them. All 9TH
sFs are but sounterfsts h pretenders- --Er.

Motherl DER thine infant bending,
In its gentle, gentle sleep,
Gazing till thy soul is swelling
With emotions strong and deep,
Leaps there not within thy bosom
new fount Of JOY and pridei
Svsster than the dreams We fancleui
Whom We wandered side by slde,

When we wandered side by sidet
Warm our hearts, and true and Trusting,
Bright the hopes thatthen were ouTsi
JoyOnsly We trOd life's pathway,
Plucking nothing but its flowers.
Like q bark by breeze OF summer

So those days, without shadow,
GIided like a sunny dream,
O'er Iifo's blue and swelling billow,
sweet and silent US dream.
Bat the tide is rushing fnster,
And the willows by the shore,
On our way their silent shadows
Dimly now are dropping O'er.
Life has lost its ideal brightness,
We have felt its grief and pain,
Childhood's hopesloi fairy lightnesS,
Come not to our hearts again.
sE11fting as the morning w-drops,

Bending o'erthy smiling infant,
All! young mother, thou dost feel
Deeper love aud nohler impulse.

Thine to lOBe--but not too rel;

For He doeth all things we'll.
