"Pshaw, you are gloomy, and / will look

back her bright curls that had fallen over
her face, she glided from the room.
Only laborer, | pondered, when she
was gone. Yet he was fellow creature
with hopes and fears like ourselves. He
had an honest generous soul, and wor
golden opinions from all who knew him.
Yet he was only laborer, and was des-
pissed by those who had their Golfers full of
paltry gold. Only laborer, and yet his
death had made one happy, desolate.-
A young wife sits, with clasped hands and
stony eyes, gazing out upon nothing nor
needing that it is growing cold within,
while little ones with pattering feet run
often to the window to look for one who
will never come.
Only laborer. Did the angels, who
bear weary souls home, pause outside the
