Who shall know him by his dress? Paupers may be fit for princes, Princes fit for nothing less. Crumpled shirt and dirty jacket, May beclotiie the golden ore Of the deepest thought and feeling— Satin vestments could do no more. There are springs of crystal nectar Ever welling out of stones, There are purple buds and golden, liidd m, crushed and overgrown : God who counts by souls, not dresses, Loves and prospers you and me, While he values thrones the highest But as pebbles in the sea. Man upraised above his fellows, Oft forgets his fellows then; Masters, rulers, lords remember That your meanest hinds are men— Men by labor, men by feeling, Men by thought aud men by fame, Claiming equal rights to sunshine In a man's ennobling name. There are foam-embroidered oceans, There are little weed clad rills; There are feebie inch high saplings, There are cedars on the hills. God, who counts by souls, not stations. Loves and prospers you aud me; For to him all vain distinctions Are as pebbles m the sea. Toiling hands alone are builders Of a nation’s wealth and fame . Titled laziness is pensioned, Fed aud fattened on the same ; By the sweat of other’s foreheads, Living only to rejoice, While the poor man’s outraged freedom Vainly lifted up his voice. Truth and justice are eternal, Born with loveliness and light, Secret wrongs shall never prosper While there is a sunny light, God, whose world-heard voice is singing "“Boundless love to you and inc, Sinks oppression with its titles, As the pebbles in the sea. NO TIME^TO PRAY. No time to pray ! O, who so frought with earthly care As not. to give to humble prayer Some part of day ! No time to pray ! What heart so clean, so pure within, That needeth not some check to sin— Needs not to pray? No time to pray ! ’Mid each day’s danger, what retreat More needful than the mercy seat ? Who must not pray? No time to pray ! Must care or business’ urgent call So press us as to take it all, Each passing day ? No time to pray! Then sure your record falleth short ; Excuse .will fail you as resort Ou reckoning day. What thought more drear Than that our God his face should hide, And say through ali life’s swelling tide, No time to hear! Cease not to pray; On Jesus as your all rely, Would you live happy—happy die, Take time to pray ! He then said, ‘’Once 1 owned this house and farm. Here 1 was born — Here my father and mother died. I was the pride ol their hearts, hut ] brought down their grey hairs with sor row to ihe grave. Here 1 commenc ed my married life, and all that heart could wish was mine.

O, how sorrowful she looked when she saw ine take her shoes and start for the store to pawn them for rum, while she lav sick. And then how she begged me he lore she died,- never to strike tier mother again! I can see her now, her pale face, her wasted form, but she cannot come to me again. And, O, my wife, how shamefully have I abused you! b was not you, Daniel, that did it. No! it was that cursed rum that Haskins sold me. No wonder you were taken from me by those who loved you, and would not sr-e you abused. They Will not have me in the house, not let me live with vou. Daniel, till cordinglv, just as every body else would under the circumstances.” “ Thee has not told me what thee would take lor the place.

By the way, does the know what has become of Daniel Aiken?” “NT. He has not been in the vil lage lor more than a veai. At auv rale I have not seen him.” , We may tell the reader what Has kins did not know. The Quaker had that day received a letter from Daniel Aiken, slating that he was ul the mines hard at work, anu was .sticking to his mono, “ Not a drop more, Dai! iel,” and that he had iaid up a few hundred dollars—and desired him to inquire what the place he once owned They will (could be bought for.

So confident was he that Daniel Aiken would come home a sober man, with money in his pocket, that he ventured to purchase it, for the purpose of keeping it for him. He wrote to Aiken what he had done, and about three months alter, 1 shall | received a letter stating that bv express i he had sent five hundred dollars in gold, to a banker in New York with orders to sell it and remit the proceeds to him to go towards the farm.

As the cool air of the evening tell upon him, he all at once began to give ulterence to his feelings in ihe following strain : “ Not a drop more, Daniel. Am I drunk, or am I sober? Not a drop more, Daniel. Did Haskins think a drop more would hurt me? No ! hut my money is gone. He has got every thing l had. He has got the Bible mv mother gave me. He has got the shoes which my wife bought for Jennie, and paid for with her own earnings.— Not a drop more, Daniel. Daniel, what say you to that ? I say so, too. I had once good clothes, and now 1 have nothing but rags. Not a drop more, Daniel, till I have others as good as when Mary and I were married. I once had a good watch, but that, too, is gone. Not a drop more, Daniel, till l have another as good as the one 1 pawned to Haskins tor drink. 1 have seen the time when I had a good horse and buggy, and could ride into the vil lage in as good style as any man in the place. Not a drop more7 Daniel, till I own another horse and buggy as good asineonel once had. 1 once had cows that furnished my family with hutter and cheese, but Haskins has got them.
