WORKINGMEN.

The noblest men know'on earth,
Are men whose hands are brown with toi
Who, backed by no ancestral graves,
How down the wood and TIL the SOIL
And win thereby prouder fame
Than follows king or warriors name.
The workingmen, whate'er their task,
To carry the stone or bear the hod,
The sweat upon their honest brows,
The royal stamp and seal of God
And brighter are their drops Of sweat
Than diamonds in a coronet.
God bless the noble Workinsmen
Who rear the cities Of the plain
Who dig the mines and build the ships,
And drive the commerce on the main;
God Bless them for their swarthy hands
Have wrought the glory OF all lands.

covered that the 42d Highlanders be-
gan to waver. On inquiry as to the
cause of an occurrence so unusual he
was informed that the band had
ceased to play. He instantly gave
the command that the pipes be
played in full force. The effect was
magical. The wavering highlanders
rallied and solid and impregnable as
the fort of Gibraltar, with tattered
colors and blood drenched, they went
forth to win the hard contested field.
Thus to them music meant Uictory."
