A Social Philosopher.
IFrom the Norwich Bulletin !

A large man, who sat on the wharf fish,
ing, recently, gave his opinion with regard
to the hard times. He sad the trouble
was that capital was opposed to labor, and
no matter how anxious a man was to work,
capital would make no concessions. He
wanted work himself, he said, and once
he thought of giving up, but now his wife
was able to take in washing, he would never
yield. He intended to say more, but he
was obliged 10 60 off to attend ball match.

Written for the Opening OF the International
Exhibition, Philadelphia.

BY JOHN G. WHITTIER.
Our fathers God from out whose hand
Ths centuries fall like grains OF sand,
We meet to-day, united, free,
And loyal to our land and Thee,
To thank Thee for the era done,
And trust Thee for the opening one.
Here, where of old. by Thy design.
The fathers spake that word of Thine
Whose echo is the glad refrain
OF ronded bolt and falling chain,
To grace our iestai time, from all
The zones Of earth our guests we call
Re with us while the New World greets
The Old World thronging oil its streets,
dwelling all the triumph won
By art OF toll beneath the sun
And unto common good ordain
This rvalship of heart and brain.
Thou, who hast here In concord furled
The war flags of u gathered world,
Beneath our Western skies fulill
Tho Orient's mission OF good will,
And. freigLted with loves Golden Fleece,
Send back its Argonauts Of peace.
For art and labor met in truce.
For beauty made the bride OF use,
We thank Thee but, withal, we crave
The austere virtues strong to save,
The honor proof to place or gold,
The manhood never bought nor sold
Oh, make Thou US, through centuries long,
In peace secure, In Justice strong;
Around our gift of freedom draw
The safeguard of Thy righteous law;
And, cast in some diviner mold,
Let the new cycle shame the odd

MYSTERY OF DREAMS.

1t is related that a man fell asleep
as the clock struck the first stroke of
twelve. He awoke ere the echo of the
twelfth stroke had died away, having
in the interval dreamed that he. COM
mitted crime, was detected after five
years, tried and condemned the shock
of finding the halter about his neck
aroused him to consciousness, when
he discovered that all these events had
happened in an infinitesimal fragment
of time. Mohammed, wishing to IL
lustrate the wonders of sleep,told how
a certain man, being sheikh, found
himself, for his pride, made poor
fisherman ;that he lived for sixty years,
bringing up a family and working
hard and how, upon waking up from
his long dream, SO short a time had he
been asleep. that the narrow-necked
gourd bottle filled with water, which
he knew he overturned as he fell
asleep, had not time in which to en-
PITY itself. How fast the soul travels
when the body is asleep! OFTEN, when
we awake, we shrink from going back
into the dull routine of sordid ex-
istence, regretting the pleasanter life
OF dreamland. How is it that some
times, when we go to strange place,
we fancy that we have seen it before.
Is it possible when one has been asleep
the soul has floated away, seen the
place and has the memory of it, which
SO surprises US? In a word, how far
dual is the life of man ?-how far not
