Il A few thoughts upon labor: The neces-
sity imposed upon man to labor is I'M
qucstionably great blessing. In those
parts of the world where the greatest
amount Of labor is requisite to obtain the
,nccessaries Of life, We find the most Wig
orous, healthy and athletic inhabitants;
where nature has done most for man in
providing for his bodily wants, we find
him most destitute OF the solid comforts
of life. Labor in the open mir is most
conducive 10 health, and agriculture af-
fords the largest share Of happiness. be.
cause the most healthy and independent
Of avocations. Here mere than in other
countries the powers of body and mind
have . chance for development. Immense
tracts Of land are YET uncultlvated, oul
wofskhops are numerous and rapidly in.
creasing. our, commerce Is seeking the
markets Of the world. Manual labor, on
the one hand. produces food and rain.en'
for the body, increases wealth and dcvel
opes the treasures Of earth and sea; intel
lectual labor. on The other, discovers the
best means, plans and implements fol
gaining these ends. makes laws and regu.
lafions for thc protection al person and
properly. and for the advancement of the
welfare Of Ill Labor induces men to bf
better citizens. Man was made for &c.
