WORK FOR THE ARMY.

There is immense activity now in ev-
cry quarter where arms, munitions or
warlike material of any sort is in prepara-
ton, AS an example of this we give the
following statement compiled from a
Philadelphia paper of what is going on in
or near that city: !" At one establishment
six hundred women, working with ma
chine and hand, are employed upon shirts
and drawers, and another firm employ
almost the same number. The stocking
makers are all busy, and the demand for
army flannel has made the wooden mills
extraordinarily active. Cornelius & Ba-
ker employ 500 men in making mountings
for uniforms. At TIE foundry of North,
Chase g. North are being made immense
quantities of shot, shell, canister and
grape From three to four hundred men
find steady employment in this establish
mcnt. Bntterfeld Il Co. are altering five
thousand stand of arms for the state of
Pennsylvania, riAing the barrels, altering
the locks, retempering the bayonets
Matthews g. Moore are casting monster
guns, and Sellers & Go. are rifing them.
An the manufacture of knapsacks vast
quantity of material is being worked up.
while the entire harness-making trade is
more busy than ever before known. The
construction Of new vessels for the navy
is also employing vast numbers of people.
At the Gray's Ferry arsenal, fifteen hun
dred men and women are kept busily en-
ployed all day long at the manufacturing
of cartridges, accoutrements, small arms.
tents, camp fixtures, &c. Bement &
Dougherty are working, at over time,
with force of over ten hundred men, in
making machinery for making guns and

In each volume is inserted an Historical Dia-

OF Religion, and the rise and tall of empires are
represented, as on an outline map. BY this
means the chronology of the past, subject so
difficult to master is made as easy as the latitude

CROWN AND CROSS.

II seemed a crown Of cruel thorn.
1t seemed a cross of bitter scorn,
bent my suffering brow to wear,
raised my feeble arms to bear.
might have cast away the crown,
But hands loved had crushed it down,
And pressed its singing points of pain.
Through quivering nerve. and bursting vein.
might have stunned the cross to bear.
But 0ne-the Master-placed it there;
And, failing the appointed task,
No other service might ask.
As on my weary way passed,
Ready to faint and fail at last,
The burden under which bent
Became the staff on which leant;
And blossoms for the thorns had place.
Upon my head a browning grace,
That brought me through the burning hours,
The cool and healing touch of flowers.
.
NV crown was love, maintained through loss
And truth upheld through scorn my cross.

called him from his bed and informed
him that they did not intend to injure

to kneel upon them and take the oath of

New Article for N Bed.
The best spring bed now known.
Town rights will be sold if wanted.

New Article for n Bed.
We had an opportunity the other day of exam
lining model of the new Spring Bed, recently
invented by Mr.. Thomas Toman, of fitchburgh,
Mass, and which is so highly recommended by
those who have used it in Lowell Nashua,
Fitchburgh, etc. 1t looks like first rate thing
1t is made somewhat on the principle of pair of
belows--air tight at the bottom, with the excep-
ton of holes with " clappers" over them to
admit the air when the pressure is taken from the
top of the bed. When the pressure is again made
upon the top, by movement of persons sleeping,
the " clappers'' close, and the air is forced out
through the upper part or stutlng' of the bed,
which is porous, thus continually ventlating it
and keeping it free from all impurities. The
uph0lstry is set upon spiral springs, braced so
perfectly as to render it impossible for them to
slip out Of place and the filling is made Of either
hair, moss, or prepared husks as any one may
desire. 1t is certainly very perfect bed, and it's
invention reflects much credit upon the ingenuity
of Mr.. Tolman.
We are also gratfcd to refer to few of those
who have used these beds in St. Adams and vi
cinity, viz -
