REBuKE.

The World is old and the world is cold,
And never day is fair, 1 said,
Out of the heavens the sunlight rolled,
The green leaves rustled above my head,
And the sea was . sea of gold.
The world il cruel, said again,
Her voice is harsh to my shrinking ear,
And the nights are dreary and full Of pain,
Out Of the darkness, sweet and clear,
There rippled tender strain;
Rippled the song of bird asleep,
That sang in dream of the budding wood
OF shining fields where the reaper reap,
OF . wee brown mate and . nesting brood,
And the grass where the berries peep.
The world is false, though the world be fair,
And never heart is pure, l said,
And 10 ! the clinging of white arms bare,
The innocent gold of my baby's head,
And the lisp of q childish prayer.

individuals beyond the reach Of the Government
He says that the interests of the Government and
the people have been totally disregarded by the Di

"Stiok to your Busls.

Mr.. Morgan was q rich, and also o
good man. The people Of the town re-
spected him, sent him to Parliament, and
seldom undertook anything without ask
ing his advice. II schoolhouse was to
be built, the plan had to be talked over
with him. Widow P asked him
what she should plant in her field, farm
er s. always got his advice in buy
ing cattle, Mrs R consulted him
about bringing up her boys.

Mr.. Morgan said: I will tell you hew

full that my father would not let me.
When I told him what was going on, and
he at once gave me permission to go
with them, could hardly contain my
self for Joy, and rushed into the kitchen
and got big basket, and asked mother
for a luncheon. / had the basket on
my arm, and was just going out Of the
gate, when my father called me back.
He took hold of my hand, and said, in
very gentle voice: Joseph, what are
you going for, to rick berries or to play p
To pick berries,' replied. Then, Jo-
seph, / want to tell you one thing. It is
this. When you find q pretty good
bush, do not leave it to find . better one.
The other boys and girls will run about,
pick little here, and a little there,
wasting q great deal of time, and not
getting many berries. If you do as they
do, you will come home with an emp ty
basket. If you want berries, stick to
your BUSH

capital time. But it was just as my ia
ther said. No sooner had one found a
good bush, than he called all tho rest,
and they left their several places and
ran off to the new found treasure. Not
content more than a minute or two in
one place, they rambled over the whole
pasture, got very tired, and at night had
but very few berries. My fathers
stuck to my bush.' When I had done
with one, I found another, and finished
that; then took another. When night
came, had large basketful of nice
berries, more than all the Others put to
gether, and was not so tired as they
were. I went home happy. But when
l entered, found my father had been
taken ill. He looked at my basket of
ripe, black berries, aud said, well done,
Joseph. Was it not just as I told you ?
Always stick to your bush.'
HE died q few days after, and had
to make my way in tho world ~ best

In consideration of its many virtues, have

Rivet the last Pacific rail,
With a silver hammer and golden nail
For over the hill and over the vale,
The iron horse is swiftly coming.
Along the prairiss wild flowers sweet,
With red lips kiss his flying feet, es
Wild eagles his wild scream repeat -
His hymn of praise the bee is humming.
Hail to the day and deed
Hail to the iron steed! a
Hail to the iron rail
Hail to the West, all hail
Now the rising and setting sun
Shall see the East and West are one,
Wherever the steed of steam shall run,
The Union shall be one forever.
State linked with State with iron bands,
Hearts linked with hearts, and hands with hat ds,
Hail 70 our broad free lakes and lands
Hail TO our FREQ lands
Hail to our free hands!
Hail to the gold nail
4--e Hail to the last rail
Over prairies of gold and green,
4 Over rivers that roll betw Gen.
Plumed noun tans of richest sheen,
The steam horse tolls harder and harder,
Now soaring the wild herds and focks,
Now laundering over granite blocks,
Now climbing the steep shelving rocks,
Now up the Sierra Nevada.
Hail to the plsins below!
Hail to the peaks of snow
Hail to the hammers stroke
81 Hail to the echoes woke
From ocean to ocean the rail
Runs over the mountain and vale,
Which echo with blows the nail,
Now heard by the list'ning races.
Hail to the pathway of nations here !
It runs to-day through hemisphere,
The good time coming must now be near,
1t shines our hope-lighted faces.
Hail to the age of steam
Hail to the iron teaml
Hail to our iron bars

duced Inc to offer it to the public with entire
confidence in its efficacy, believing that its gen.

medicine perform effectual cures in one-tourth

Asiatic cholera almost always begins with diar
