Occupation.

Occupation! what n glorious thing
it is for the human heart. Those
who work hard seldom yield them
selves entirely up to fancied or real
sorrow. When grief sits down, folds
its hands, and mournfully feeds upon
its own tears, weaving the dim
shadows, that little exertion might
sweep away, into funeral pail, the
strong spirit is shorD Of its might,
and sorrow becomes our master
When troubles flow upon you, dark
and heavy, toll not with the waves
-wrestle not with the torrcnt!--
rather seek by occupation to divert
the dark waters that threaten to
overwhelm yon, into the thousand
channels which the duties OF life al.
ways present. Before you dream OF
it those waters will :ertilize the pres.
cnt, and give birth to fresh flowers
that may bright the iuture--howers
that will become pure and holy, in
the sunshine which pcnctrates tothe
path Of duty, in spite of every Oh.

Three negroes had escaped from
