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. DRAMATIC AMD OPERATIC. Miss Price and Mr. Ilauchett are playing at Montgomery. Mr. Jefferson, the celebrated come dian, is at the Varieties, in New Orleans. Harry Macarthy aad Lottie Estelle are at the New Orleans Academy ot Music.

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. 180 BROAD STREET. 190 £)RY GOODS DRESS GOODS, •*«* MILLINERY, BONNETS, HATS CAPS, HAT ORNAMENTS, SHAWLS, MUSLINS, CLOAKS, FLANNELS.
