London crowa.

There is a mocking, bitter laugh for the
most venerated institutions, and the
many tongued voice has an acrid, cynic
accent. The steady, respectable element
indeed holds its tongue and keeps an anx-
ious watch over its pockets; and it is the
lo0ser wilder members Of the crowd who
are seen and heard the most. But how
numerous these last, how threatening,
and how quickly increasing and gather
ing strength, it only needs an occasional
day in the streets to realize.
And the most discouraging part of the
business is the immense contingent Of
idle youths, most of whom have passed
under what ought to have been the civil
izing effects of education in the board
schools, but who certainly show to no
greater advantage than the roughs and
loafers Of a former era. Indeed. the
clamorous voices of the swarms of idle or
half idle youth who viii earn no daily
bread, nor even the pinch of salt that
should accompany it, to whom any real
apprenticeship to any decent craft or trade
of mystery or any reliable way to earn
an honest living is altogether inaccessi-

There is no life, however smooth its outward cur

But sorrow shall be lost at last IN God as in the
sea.
Life pilgrim, is it not enough to know this thing
shall bes
Our lips were made for victors' songs. our brows

Why stand ye then, o sons Of God, with heavy
hearts bowed downs
However fierce tho tempest be, your hopes may
yet be warm
The lightning flash Of Gods great power can
pierce the darkest storm.
Then forward let the midnight ring as grandly
as the dawn.
With songs that tell Of earnest souls that march
in courage on;
The bitter conflicts Of the world shall find In
death goal
spuned by the eagle pinions Of the glad and
conqueriug soul.
