A Song for the Times.

Let hard times assail us,
Let poverty nail us
Like mystic horsc.shocs in every old walk;
Let deep tribulation
And force dissolution
Spread all lands like a funeral pail;
Though empty our purses
Though creditors curse us,
And quarters are squeezed till the eagles howl,
Let's have merry faces
and smiles for all places
Remembering tbs better to grin than 10 growl
And though banks arc breaking,
And "big houses quaking,
Let one day undo all they have ever done,
Our crossncss can't mend it,
Our weeping won't end it,,
why not take the bright side and call IL nil finn ?
will forfeited pleasures
Or imbecil measures
BRING back our lost conference.-the the dark cowl
No no; days sorrow
Brings no brighter to morrow:
when things will SO bad let us grin anu not growl.
But let us keep thinking
That though we are sinking
we can't go much further because !. won't pay;
The old saw not forgetting.
That's cured lots of frctting
Inc honr is the darkest just before day"
Though vacant our purses,
Though creditors curse us
Though quarters arc squeezed till the eagles howl
Let's keep merry faces
And smiles for all places
or surely us better to grin than to growl

Winds.

The great agent in causing corrents of air
or winds, on the surface Of the globe. is the
heat of tho sun. The air is not heated directly
by the sun, or at least only in a very SLIGHT de-
gree, for no transparent body will become hot
by rays SIMPLY passing through it, The glass
IN window remains quite cool though trans
mtting the fercest rays of the sun but if
| blackened ON the inside, that the ra VS. cannot
pass through, it Immediately becomes hot :;
similarly. the air becomes heated principally
by radiation from the ground, aud. as in all
tiuids, whether gaseous or liquid the heated
mass, becoming lighter by the expansion con
soquent on heating immediately asocnds.-
ms method OF acquiring heat throughout is
called connection, since in it the heated particles
are conveyed fra below upwards and belong
to all fluid bodies; for they being bad conduc,
tors OF heat would require great time to be.
come heated throughout as solid bodies do, by
conductton, IN which the PARTICLES of matter do
not change their relative position
Suppose, now, that the sun shines on n large
tract of i@hd--tUr Instance The Desert of Saba
ra; vast volume of air being thus heated be-
gins immediately to ascend; u vacuum is CON
sequently left; and air from all sides immcdi-
atcly rushes IN to fill this vacuum, thus produ-
eng wind. This is beautifully exemplifcd i'm
the case of islands in the midst OF the sea. as.
Tor instance, the West Indian Islands, where
we find the wind every day blowing from all
sides towards the island, thus constituting what
is known as the sea breeze of the day. The
''''Sc vi I"c MIl'u IN Sucn cases Dclng directed
towards the island, is, that the heating and CON
scquen ascent Of the air takes place much
more over land than over water.
Bnt 1t the surface of land, receiving certain
amount of heat, is raised in temperature
through five times as many degrees rs a surface
ot water os the same extent would be- it follows
as matter of course, that in losing a certain
amount of heat, it falls in temperature through
live times rs many degrees as water does there
Is, therefore, after sunset. much greater CON
denSatlon of the air over the land than there is
over the water and the former, increasing in
density very much in consequence, presses out
wards towards the sea with considerable force
the column of dense air over the land being
lowered by thus flowing cut over the sea, has its
height repaired in tho upper regions by air flow
ing IN from the upper atmosphere over the sea
to I'LL the vacuum; this is condensed, sinks
down, and flows out to sea in it's turn and thus
we have the wind blowing continuously in
direction exactly the reverse of its direction
during the day, and forming the evening land
breeze, so we'll known in tho West Indian and
other tropical Islands, Chambers Journal.

Sabbath In the Country.

oaDDaCn In the country.
Tho creaking Wagons in the shed;
The busy fail is heard no more:
Tho horse is Uttered down and fed
The harness hangs about his head,
The whip behind the door.
His lcatherp gloves and hooked bill
To-day the yoolman throws aside:
The blacksmith fiery forge is still,
The wooden wheel of the old mill
Sleeps in the mill dam wide.
The miller's boat is anchored where,
Ear out the water lilies sleep
You see their shadows mirrored there,
The broal whito flowers reflected clear,
Within the mill pond deep.
The iarrow'a in The garden shed,
Hoe, rake and spade are put away;
Unweeded stands the onion bed,
Tho gardener from-his work hath fled;
Ills holy Sabbath-doy
Upon the wall the white ',eps.
By which the churn IN 4-pans lie;
Adtow'y watch the hous3.o.. keeps,
And scarcely from his dull eye peeps
Upon t!Ie passer-by.
And Swcetly over hill md dale
The silyety sounding church bells ring;
Across the moor and down the dale
They come and go, and on the gale
Their Sabbath tidngs hins.
From where the white washed Sunday school
Peeps out between the poplnrs dim,
Which ever throw their shadows cool
Far out upon the rushy pool,
You hear the Sabbath hymn.
From farm and field and grange grown gray,
From woodland walks and winding ways,
The old and young, the grave aud gay,
Unto the old church comes to pray,
And sing Gods holy praise.
