fame, the vain bapbles of earthly glory
and all that wealth ere gave, when sor,
rows compass the soul and wiring bite,
tears from its inmost depths, in com.
parison to the consolation offered by
this single declaration, "Come unto me
all ye that labor and are heavy laden,
and | will give you rest"
1t is the duty of all to seek to extend
its borders by their example and con.
tributions. What field it presents to
the philanthropist? He sees in it a
great plan for the melioration of the
condition of all mankind, wherein he
can devote his energies with every as.
surance of success. To the patriot,
who exults in the beauty, symmetry &
solidity of our civil and political insti-
tutlons, and who desires to see them
perpetuated through the dark and mys-
terious future, it presents claims of
undoubted superiority. . .
But what field for the noble ener-
gies of the Christian ? TO him it comes
as the pioneer of the Gospel-he halls
1T with acclamation and delight-he
bcholds how by its silent and unobtru-
slve efforts the lone and desolate places
OF earth can be made to bring forth
praise to Him "who is high over all, -
and Governor among the nations"-
and the barren fields can be transform
ed into fruitful vineyards. And by the
clear eye of faith he discerns beyond
the realms of time its glorious rewards
in eternity ! ...."~

Going to Spread Herself

AS newly married couple, evident
~ from the country, were promenad-
ing Montgomery street, last evening,
their curiosity was suddenly aroused
ey the appearance of some mysterious
looking articles dangling from shop
window. They eyed them with the
keenest concern---until ut last, the
husband, having completely exhausted
his imaginative powers, drawled out:
'Well, Sal, consarn my picters, eff
them amt the quecrest looking things
| ever haern tell Of Then, twisting
himself abont, and giving the window
another look he added, What on
earth kin they bo?'
Why Jake, don't you know? Krinic-
line and hoops! J.
'Deu toll calculated Jake, softly.
'Thom's 'em, is they ? and he ran his
eyep Rboptths strange apparel. "..'
/ think they are so swectr ventur-
ed Sal, when at the same moment,
lady dressed in the height and breadth
of the fashion brushed along.
Jake had seen enough, Sal must have
'krlneline.' Without saying WORD
he started to enter the store, but was
stopped at the door by her.. with ali
sorts of entreaties not to carry the
joke any further. But Jake was de-
terminod. lie had taken fancy to
the goods, and could not rest until his
better half was supplied with,them.-
She drew back but it was of no avail.
lie gathered her arm tightly in his own
o"n and making a long stride into the
establishment exclaimed .,.

.EUBAL CAxW.
BY CHARLES MACKAY.

Oid Iubal Cain was Il man of mipht
In the days Rhcn earth was young;
by the fierce rcd light of his furnace bright,
The strokes Of his hammer rung
And lie iincd his brawny hand
On the iron glowing clear,
IIIl the splrks rushed out in scarlet showers,
AS he fashioned his sword and spear
Aad he Sang, 'iIurrall fqi my handiwork!
Hutrah for the spear and sword!
Hurrah for the hand tha. wcds them we'll,
For he shall be king and lord
10 Tabal Cain came many n one,
as he wrought by his rouring fire:
And each one prayed for long steel blade.
AS tho crown of his desire
and lie made them weapons sharp and strong,
. Till they shouted aloud for glcc,
And gave him gifts Of pearl and gold,
And spoils Of the forest tree;
And they sang, Hurrah for Tubal Cain
Who has given strength anew!
,Hurrah for the smith Iurrah for the firc
And hurrah for the metal true !"
But sudden change came oor bis heart,
Ere the setting Of the sun;
And Tubal Cain was filed with pain,
For the evil he had done.
lie saw that mcn with rage and hate
Made war upon their kind T..
That The land vas red With Tic blood lhcy shed
And their last for carnage blind; '' ''
AID ho said Alas that ever mado,
o. that skill Of mine should plan,
The erchF and the SWORD for men wloso Joy
Is 10 sloy their fellow man .'..>
and for many day old Tubal Cain
Sat broodng o'es his wo---
And his hand forborc 10 suit The ore
And his furnace smouldor'd low.
But he rose at last with cheerful face,
And a bright courageous eye,
And barred his arm for the work.
While The quick aan,cs mounted high;
And he sang, 'IIurrah for my hondwork"
And tho red sparks 1t the air
Not alone FOR Tie blade was the bright Size
made, j.
And he fashioned The first plougbslnrc.
And mcn taught wisdom from tie past
In friendship Joined thoir hands,
Hung the sword in the hall and the spear o,
tic wall,
And ploughcd the willing londs;
And sang, 'Hurroh for Tuba Cain!
Our stauncl good friend is he,
