TRIUMPHs OF LABoR.-The following elo-
quent tribute to Labor is from the pen Of the
gifted Chaplin. Hear him.
"And who can adequately describe the
triumphs of labor, urged by the potent spell
of money? 1t has extorted the secrets of
the universe, and trained its power into my.
riad forms of use and beauty From the bo-
som of the old creation, It has developed
anew the creation of industry and of art 1t
has been its task and its glory to overcome
obstacles Mountains have been leveled,
and valleys exalted before it. 1t has broken
the rocky soil into fertile globes; it has
crowned the hill tops with verdure, and bound
around the very feet of ocean ridges with
golden corn. UP from sunless and hoary
deeps, up from the shapeless quarry, it drags
its spotless marble and rears its palace of
pomp. 1t tears the stubborn metals from the
bowels of the earth, and makes them ductile
to its will 1t marches steadily on, over the
swelling flood and through the winds of
ocean, tramplesits hoarse surges, and mingles
them with flakes of fire.
Civilization follows its path. 1t achieves
greater VICTORIES, it weaves more durable
trophies, it holds wider sway, than conquerer.
His name becomes tainted and his monuments
crum6le; but labor converts his red battle
field into gardens, and erects monuments sig
niticant of better things. 1t sits crowned as
a queen in thousand cities and sends up its
roar of triumph from a million wheels. 1t
gistens in the fabric of the loom it rings and
sparkles from the stately hammer. it glows
in shapes of beauty. it speaks in words OF
power, it makes the sinewy arm strong with
liberty, the poor mans heart rich with con
tent, and crowns the sweaty brow with hon
or, dignity and peace"
