BT A. ORKBX.
There's not n toiler onr tho earth
But gains » good reword,
Tho reoognitiou of his worth.
In blasting* from tho Lord.
And only they whooo Idle bonds
Diedalo the haooot toil,
In harvest sigh of borron loads
And look for corn or oil.
No mottor wbot the work any bo,
If It bo honost work ;
To plow the land, or plow the son,
Or Okriftianlie tho Turk.
But work with oil tby might the day.
And work with trusting heart,
Cast unless fears and doubts sway,
And aet a-manly part.
Tor comes there still a blessed time,
Whan those who do and dare
Shall gain the bright and better elime—
And there’s no toiling there.
And not beyond this world nlone
Accrue the joys to pay
For hardens borne end labors doae,
In this, ear working day.
Bat bore we hare abundant good,
And choicest blessings given,
Os earthly peace a plentitude.
To indicate our heaven.
Art though of high or Plebian birth,
Still sure is thy reward,
If thon hast labored on the earth,
And trusted iu the Lord.
The poor distinctions made by men
Are inessential there;
Oar worth aud work avail us then,
And not the names wc bear.

A Nice Kettle ok Fish.— The
Louisville Journal tells of a gentleman
of Kokoua, Indiana, who had been ab
sent from home for several months, re
turned a few days since, and taking bis
wife down tp Indianapolis to seethe
sights, look in upon the Legislature, and
enjoy himself generally. Arrived at the
capital city, the pair repaired to one of
the principal hotels, where lie registered
himself and “lady" and called for a
room. As soon as the clerk saw the
names he declined furnishing the room,
alleging, as bis reason, that the lady had
visited the hotel a half a dozen times
with as many different gentlemen, each
one of whom claimed her as his wife.
Here was a pretty kettle of Hoosier fish 1
The husband profaned vigorously, while
the hotel clerk saw that he had released
a mouse from the trap. The gentleman
demanded the names of the “half a
dozen gentlemen,” who all chanced to
be residents of Indianapolis. The clerk
gave them, and the parties were sent
for. They came, a private room was
called into requisition, explanations en
sned, the betrayed husband's pockets
filled with greenbacks, after*which heal
ing ceremony he informed the numerous
six that they might draw straws for the
woman—he was going to emigrate. He
was as good as his word. He levanted,
and the places that knew him have
known him no more todate. A pleasant
country that, Indiana.
Longfellow, the poet, was staying a
few years ago down at Newport, shut up
in seclusion, deeply intent on the pro
duction of some poetical work. A man
demanded admittance, bat was refused
by the servant. He was importunate,
and Longfellow was consulted, and ad
mittance again denied. At last the
man broke through an obstruction and
burnt into the poet’s study. Said he,
heedless of the poet’s frown: “Mr.
Longfellow, you must excuse my inter
rnption, but I have business that is of
more importance t > you even than to
me, and I have comedown from Boston
on purpose to see yon. You know
these English blacking fellows, Warren
and them others, kept a poet, and their
blacking went off because of their verges.
Now I am in the blacking business, and
I thought if we were to go partners, you
could make the rhymes and I the black
ing and we could divide and make a
good thing of it. You see, you would
make the Dest end of the the thing "
“Pot him out I put him out!’’ shrieked
Longfellow, in an excess of indignation
and astonishment, and the indiscreet
blacking-maker left the room with
greater speed than he had anticipated
for the sale of his blacking.
—ls all accounts are true, the Empress
Eugenie is one of the unhappiest of
wives.
