and skilful demagogue in the United States; IN
amiable and inoffensive joker, and yet re-
morseless and bloody tyrant; an honest man.
and yet the most unprinoipled scoundrel that

The workingman.

The workingmap Of Lancashire
Came later home that night
His babes had cried themselves TO sleep,
His young wife's cheek was white
The scanty meal had failed that day;
She looked up In his face,
AS If in his frank honest eyes
A ray of hope to trace.
He sat down by the fireess hearth,
She lent her close beside;
He said; "Dear wife, the livelong day
hunted far and wide;
Each factory door was closed begged
An hours work in vain;
L could not bear to seek my home
And hear my babes complain.
"Weary and hungry, as sat
Beside lighted hall,
A comrade bade me enter in;
Twas meant, he thought, for all
The workingmen to speak their minds
And get their wrongs redressed
lis wrong, said |, that we should starye.
went in with the rest.
Gone stood upon the platform there,
And told us how we might
In one great cry for work and bread
Our thousand tongues unite.
Our Englands Parliament would hear,
Our English Queen would heed,
For never yet her royal heart
Disdained her peoples need.
sour war-ships, with their hundred guns,
Would rake the western shore,
Drive back the Northerners, and bring
The bales of cotton DER; t
Our factory doors would open wide
With work and wages high;
/ thought how glad my babes would be,
AS if relief were nigh.
hBpt then another rose to speak,
You know, my wife, the slaves!
We've often talked of how they wished
Their children in their graves.
And thought how hard twopld be for US
To part with Robbie there,
Or our small Jennie, so like you
In sunny eyes and hair.
''This speaker told us how, where'er
The Northern army went,
They broke the fetters from the slave,
Telling what freedom meant,
And how those slaves looked up in prayer,
Blessing our dear Lords name
That to them, in His owr good time,
This blessed Union came.
''How Northern teachers INTO schools
The little ones have brought,
To learn the same most Holy Book
Our own dear ones are taught;
The men go out to till the fields
Gladly, as freemen may,
And mothers DER their babes rejoice
Throughout the summer day.
.'But should the North be driven back,
God help those freedmen then!
For their sake would Ue bear our lot,
Silent, as Christian men?
His voice grew lower as he spoke;
i know It's hard to bear,
Bpt-think of Jesus on the cross,
For others died lie there!
$50, wife, stood up in my place
And shouted, Aye, we will
The ayes of our brave working men
They seemed the roof to thrill
We shouted it again, again,
It was a glorious night
But, when I came to this bare house,
Dear wife, did do right?"
''Most surely, right, she said, yet turned
With hidden tears away,
Murmuring-'God,g give my little ones
Their bread from day to day."
And many such staunch working men
Went hungry home that night,
And thanked God he had strengthened them
To suffer for the right.
The working men of Lancashire!
Their great selfsacrifice
Those, for whose sake twas undergone,
viii never knoy or prize
Only when freedmen kneel at dawn
-, And bless their friends in prayer,
They bless the noble men
OF England, unaware.
