THE TIME FOR PRAYER.

When is the time for prayerl
With the first beams that light the morning sky
Ere for the tolls of day thou dost prepare,
Lift up thy thoughts on high;
Commend thy loved ones to His watchful care
Morn is the time for prayer
And in the noontide hour,
If worn by toll or by sad cares opprest,
Then unto God thy spirits sorrow pour,
And He will give thee rest;
Thy voice shall reach Him thro' the fields of air -
Noon is the time for prayer
When the bright sun hath set
Whilst yet eve's glowing cOlOrs deck the skies
When with the loved, at home, again thou'st met
Then let thy prayer arise
For those who in thy joys and sorrows share
Eve is the time for prayer
And when the stars come forth
When to the trusting heart sweet hopes are given
And the deep stiffness of the hour gives birth
To pure bright dreams ofheaven-
Kneel to thy God-ask strength, lifes ills to bear
Night is the time for prayer
When is the time for prayer
In every hour while life is spared thee
In crowds or solitude-in Joy or care
Thy thoughts should heavenward fee;
At home-at morn and eve--with loved ones there
Bend thou the knee in prayer

STRoNGER.-After the election of 1864

single State in the Union, Delaware
Bramlette, of Kentucky, was not then a
Democrat, having been elected by what
was called the Union" party After the
election of 1868, we have the Governors of
Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Della

We have also recovered the State of Oregon
which cast its vote for Seymour, and the
States of Georgia and Louisiana. by i'm
mense maiOrities These three States will
have Democratic Governors in another
year, which Will give us the control of the
executive power in ten States This shows

"Mary-Mary Moore" said i'll a low,
eager tone, ''have you no welcome to give
to q wanderer ?"
She turned and laid her hand in mine,
and said hurriedly-
II am glad to see you here, Harry"
Simple words, and yet how blessed they
made me- I would not have yielded her
up that moment for an emperor's crown
For there was the happy home group and
the dear fre-side with sweet Mary Moore.
The eyes I had dreamed of by day and
night, were fallen beneath the ardent gaze
of mine, and the sweet face 1 had SO long
prayed to see was there beside me. never
knew the meaning of happiness, until that
moment.
Many years have passed since that happy
night, and the hair that was dark and
glossy then, is fast turning gray. l am now
grown to be an old man, and can look back
to happy, and 1 hope well-spent life
And yet, sweet as it has been, | would not
recall single day, for the love that made
my manhood so bright, shines also upon
my white hairs
An old man? Can this be so ? At heart
1 am as young as ever. And Mary, with
her bright hair parted smoothly from a
brow that has slight furrow upon it, is
still the Mary of other days. To me she
can never grow old or changed. The heart
that held her infancy, and sheltered her il
the flush and beauty of womanhood, can
never cast her out until life shall cease TO
warm it. Not even then, for love still lives
above.

A FAIR TURN.-'I understand. Mr..
Jones, that you can turn anything sneater
than any other man in town.
Yes, Mr.. Smith. l think So"
"Ahem Mr.. Jones, / don't like to brag,
but there is nobody on earth can turn a
thing as well as l can whittle."
pooh nonsense, Mr.. Smith Talk
about whittling-what can you whittle as
nice as L can turn %
''Anything-everything, Mr.. Jones. You
just name the article that can't white
that you can turn, and will give this dol
lar if / do not do it to the satisfaction OF
these gentlemen present. " Here Mr.
Smith tables the dollar
"Ahem Well, then, Mr.. Smith, suppose
we take two grindstones, just for a trial
you know-you whittle the one while
turn the other"
A fair ''sell" Mr.. Smith started mo
ment, and vamosed. The forfeited dollar
was quickly disposed of by those present
with great glee and satisfaction.

b6rAt one time woman could hardly
walk through the streets of San Francisco
without having every one pause and gaze

once in theatre in that city where a wo-
man had taken her infant, when it be-
gan to cry, just as the orchestra commen-
ced to play, a man in the pit cried, ''Stop

performance, amid unbounded enthusiasm.

THE PRINTERS TOLL.

Blow, ye stormy winds of winter,
Drive. the chilly, drifting snow,
Closely housed, the busy printer
Heeds not how the winds may blow.
Click, click, his type go dropping,
Here and there upon his case,
As he stands for hours popping
Every letter in its place.
Heaven send the useful printer
Every comfort mortals need,
For our nights were dull in winter
Had we not the news 10 read
Sad would be the worlds condition
Ifno printer boys were found
Ignorance and superstition,
Sin and suffering would abound.
Yea, it is the busy printer
Rolls the ear of knowledge on,
And a gloomy metal winter
Soon would reign if he were gone
Moneys useful, yet the winters
Fill not half so high place
As the busy, toiling printers,
lingering type before the case
Yet while the type they're busy setting,
Oft some thankless popinjay,
Leaves the country, kindly letting
Printers whistle for their pay.
Oh ingratitude ungracious
Are there on enlightened soil
Men with minds so incapacious
As to slight the printers toll
See him how extremely busy,
lingering type before the case,
Toiling, till he's almost dizzy,
To exalt the human race.
