I have read of its flowing river That bur/its from beneath the throne ! And the beautiful trees that ever Aro found on its banks alone; And I long to be there ! I hare read of the myriad choir Of tho angels harping thero ; Of the holy love that burns like fire : And the shining robes they wear; Aud I lone to bo there ! I haru read of the sanctified throng Th:it pissed from the earth to beaven, And now unite in the loudest song Of praise for their sins forgiv ca ; And I long to be there !

At about six o'clock in the afterne a passenger cannot w.illc through quietest street in the city, without nu illg men, each with a little tin pail ill baud. A J the bearer swing* it at side, and raps it against his iarge buttt one can readily know that it is emp White bas he' been'? What has he bi doing? Whit is the pail for? One n not bu able to see anything in the p but, after all, it has a pleasant story in Early in th?1 morning that pail is fill Before the breakfast thing* are was] and put away, it is placed tipott tua ta by a good, industrial!* woman, who f before the sun, to prepar? the morn meal, and bathe and dress the chi Mr lier lingers and feet have been very bi all the morning, and now she stops other work to see the laboring: hush, otf lo lu? work, and prepare his n< meal for him. Th.; bread and meat, large piece of pie, the gingerbread, pickles, and perhaps some dainty which sb? has saved for the man she Jov are placed in the little tin pail, one ai another, until it is full, and the lid plat snugly on. He, the laborer, stands and looks on. Whe? all is finished, gives a kiss to the youngest, says pleasant good morning to Ins wife, tal Jus pail in his hand, and away he goe*. From that time he disappears for t day. No one asks where he goes, a few know. He swings the hammer, pushes the plane, or practices some ott handicraft, in doors or ont, ile toils day for bread and clothing, for )}ims and family. His arms are strong, \ heart is courageous, and his mind contei The rich roll by in their carriages, but ?iures not. Gay idlers attract his eyes ? a moment, but he despises them. Wh noon time comes, and the long whistl sound at the shops, he drops his woi and opeas his little tin pail. Down go the meat with the true zest, and the bre? tastes ss sweetly as manna, for he h the health which labor brings. At'lat he reaches the bottom, and his eyes mo ?en as he scc3 there a piece of fruit i ?orno little delicacy, which the kind wi had smuggled in unknown to him-som thing which had cost her self-denial. Isr fhat a sweet meal ? his app?tit cud with the sweet associations whi< embalm it, it is a feast for the gods. The whistle sounds again, and aga the strong hands aud courageous hea are at work. The day is now upon tl wane, but he grows little weary, for the: is a warm place in his heart that fee< tbs fire on which willing labor depend His eye is lifted to the cjock, hour aft< hqgjr, during pauses ju his labor, and dow fans the tardy index, until, at last, tl stroke of six runs out, and the whistle < release for thc day gives its welcom blast. Before bim are twelve or fourjtee blessed hours of rest! tho rough hard are washed, the shirt sleeves rolled dow and buttoned, the coat put on, the iittl tin pail taken from its hiding place an he is in tilt, street again. Now we me? him. Now the streets are full of littl tin pails. They are carried by men wh have self-respect, who liye ?manly live: who earn, and t; owe uot any man/' Th little tin pail rings carelessly at thei side, the celebration of a day's labo achieved-of hard money hardly wot A thousand children run to meet thc ht tie tin paHs, and beg the privilege of cai rying them into houses and tenement scattered all over the city, in five hut dred of these, the table is already set out and at the fire sits the neatly-dressed wif cad the hissing teapot awaiting the hus band's return. Behold the family grou] gathered around the evening board ! Be fore those healthy appetites how quickh rite viands disappear' And* then th" good wife washes the tea things where the; stand, and the little tin pail is cleanlj wiped out and polished off for the nex ?Jay's service. Thus, and thus again, th< days g.o round, with sound, sweet sleej between. '* Toiling-rejoicing--sorrowing Onward through life he goes : Each morning sees some task began, Each evening sees its closo ; Something attempted, something dono, Has earned a night's repose." God bless the laborer ! God bless his companion, the little tin pail. May il evermore be as fuli of love and all love's sweet associations as it is filled each morn with food, and may the food never fail ! Few understand how truly the little tin pail is the index of the prosperity of a communty. The more thickly we meet them in tho streets, the more prosperous do we know that we are growing. Oh. Jet us feel kindly towards the little tin pails, and deal kindly towards those who bear them, For labor i.; the truly hon orable thing among men. There is nota jjeatly-graded lawn, a pretty garden, or a Wft&trained tree, that does not tell of it it bgU4* magnificent cities, and builds navies, and bridges, rivers, and lays the railroad track, and forms every part of the locomotive. Wherever a steamer plows the wavers, or the long canal bears the nation's inland wealth; wherever wheat fields wave and the mill wheels turn, there labor is the conqueror and the king. The news paper, wherever it spreads its wings, bears with it the im press of toiling hands. Should not the laborer be well-fed.? Should he not be well housed ? Should he not have the best wife and the prettiest children in the world ? Should not the man who pro. 4aces all that we have to eat and drink, And wear, bo honored ? To us there is more true poetry about the laborer's life ?nd lot than any other roan'* under heaven, it mattera, not fa what calling a man toils-if he toil manfiiily- honestly, effh piently and contented.
