THE uNcRowsED SOVEREIGNTY OF MAN

q uNCRowNED SOVEREIGNTY OF MAN
The uncrowned sovereignty Of man
Who daily earns his bread,
On whom earth's idlers coldly frown,
And fierce as lions tread,
Is he to whom I am allied,
Whose wrongs I'll ever sing;
A brawny toiier at the forge,
AT heart a real king.
On there is not in all the world
Such glory to be found,
As circles him whose hopeful heart
With labor's love is bound.
Oh where would be the sterling gold
That's worn by drowsy dronesi
And where would be the monarch's wealth,
The pomp of transient thrones,
If labor ceased to use its skill,
Its lustrous deeds and ways,
Like summers beauties when the sun
All golden roofs the days2
For there are melodies that start
From labor's mighty cords,
As ever thrilled the human heart,
Fired with II blaze Of words.
The ~toilers shed their bitter tears
For friends and kindred gone;
Yet, grand as thunder in the storm,
Sublimely struggle on.
The tyrants shed their fellows blood,
And talk Of heavens decree
Then strike like marderers where a State
IL burning to be free.
All let the silken dandies scorn
The toiIers of the land
But lot me feel the workers heart,
His hard and vrinkled hand
And let me labor for his class,
Aud win his honest thanks
And will own a Joy unfelt
In fashions pampered ranks.

HOW THE MONEY GOES.
BY JOHN G. SANE.

How goes the money We'll,
I'm sure it isn't hard to tell
It goes for rents and water rates,
For bread aud butter, coal and CRATES,
Hats, caps and carpets, hoops and hose,
And that's the way the money goesl
How goes the money May,
Don't everybody konw the way?
It goes for bonnets, coats and capes,
Silks, satins, muslins, v~elvets, grapes,
Shawls, ribbons, furs, furbelows,
And that's the way the money goes.
How goes the money ?-Sufe,
wish the ways were somewhat fewer
1t goes tor wages, taxes, debts,
1t goes for presents, goes for bets,
For paints, pomade and tdu de rose,
And that's the way the money goes.
How goes the money Now,
I've scarce begun to mention how
I, goes for feathers, laces, rings,
TOYS, dolls and other baby's things,
Whips, whistles, candies, bells and bows
And that's the way the money goes.
How goes the money Come,
7 know it don't go for rum
Il goes for schools and Sabbath chimes,
It goes for charity sometimes,
For missions and such things as those,
And that's the way the money goes
How goes the money There,
I'm out Of patience, l declare

The South must now educate her sons practiCaiy

I'll.
We have ample arrangements for 500 students
during the current year.
Parsons can make liberal conditions for their
sons if they apply soon. Those from the country
can board with the Professor Of the College, or
good families, speaking English, French, Spanish
or German, at moderate rates.
A business education, that enables one to earn
$4,000 or $4,000 annually, is the best fortune parents
can give their sons. As the College has been in
successful operation for more than a quarter OF
. century, and the practical plan here pursued re-
ceived the unanimous concentrations of the press
and business community, and as several thousands
OF its former students are now in business in this
city and over the country, il is useless to go into
an extended explanation Of the plan and merits Of

A QUESTION. advocates Of green.
backs say that no man is truly loyal who
does not favor the repeal of the Specific
Contract law. Now the law simply makes
every man act honestly, compels him to
live up to his written contract If he
agrees in writing that he will pay debt
in gold, the statue says it must be 20 paid,
in accordance with the terms of the con.
tract This is plain honesty. There eau
be no doubt of that. Then the question
arises. if loyalty requires the violation of
written agreements, the breaking of SOL
smn contracts. and grossly unfair dealing
between man and man, can man be
strictly honest and loyal at the same timee
In other words, is 1t necessary to be liar
and . scoundrel in order to be loyal, an
