THE GOLDEN SIDE.

There Is many rest on the road of life,
II we only would stop to take IL;
And many tone from the better land.
II the quorulous heart would wake IT,
To the sunny soul that IS fun Of hope.
And whose beautiful trust ne'er faiIeth.
The grass Is green aud the flowers are bright,
Though the wintry storm prevaileth.
Better tohope though the clouds hang low,
And to keep the eyes stin lned;
For the sweet blue sky will soon peep through,
When The Ominous clouds are rifted.
There was never a night without day.
Nor an evening without morning;
And the darkest hour, the pIOverb goes,
Is the hour before the dawmng
There Is many gem in the path Of Hfe
Which we pass in our idle pleasure,
That Is richer FAR than the jeweled crown
or the miser's boarded treasure:
10 may d. the love Of a little child,
---Or mothers prayer 10 heaven.
Or only beggar's grateful thanks
For cup Of water given.
Better TO weave IN the web Of life
A bright and golden filing.
And to do Gods win with willing heart
Ana nNuua tiuL are sWlIt anu Wiling,
Than TO snap the delicate silver threads
OF our curious lives asunder.
And then blame heav'n for the tangled ends.
And sit and grieve and wonder.

Spirit of freedom. awaken all
Ring. ye shores. to the song Of Ocean.
Rivers, answer, and mountain. call!
The golden day has come:
Let every tongue be dumb
That sounded lis malice or murmured its fears;
She hath won her story;
She wears her glory
We crowm her the Land of a Hundred Years!
Out Of darkness and toll aud danger
Into the light OF victory's day
Help to the weak and Home to the stranger.
Freedom to all she hath held her way!
Now Europe's orphans rest
Upon her mother breast
The voices % nations are heard in the cheers
That shall cast upon her
New love and honor,
And crown her the Queen Of a Hundred Years
North and South, we are met as brothers;
East and West. we are welded as onei
Right Of Each shall secure our mothers-z
Child Of each IS her faithful soni
We give thee heart and hand.
Our glorious native land,
For battle has tried thee and time endears;
We will write thy story,
And keep thy glory
As pure as OF Old for a Thousand Years!

THE LABOR QUESTION IN ENGLAND has
again become one of the serious importance.
Trade must be depressed indeed when not
only reduced wages and reduced time, but
limit of four working days in the week, are
determined upon. Whether such reductions
are jusiifable or not their effects cannot fail
TO be most deplorable. At the present rates
the condition of English operatives is not
happy lot. With reduced wages, and only
four days IN the week 10 earn even his, no
fate could be much worse than is likely 10

that the Indians encountered by Custer had
