There is n calm fur those who weep,
A rest for weary pilgrims found,
They softly lie mul sweetly sleep
L?>w in the ground.

No more disturl s their deep repose,
Than summer ev?<i?ii;gs latest eiyh
That shuts t lie rose.
I Ion? (o l:iv thi< vrf-arv head
And nehin^ iifiirt l>?-in-nth the foil,
To slumber in that dreamless bud
From all my toil.
There is a oalm f?.r those who weep,
A r:>st for \vriry ;>iVvniis found,
An?l while their niouiJerini* (i?hcs sleep

- i poor young willow witli two or three ,
children caller] on a lady a day or two since
for work or u;e:.>!. f.;!ie had mtii better j
days; but now her Miter nicofsities drove j
Jier abroad ;:s a beggar. "I must get \wrkv ;
the said. ,;or go to the poorhonse." hid.
tlic wealthy lady to whom she s>p|i!ied turn
her off with Mm 4'w?tivtu>InnMit I i
sny : "My good woman, lam sony lor you;
but I can give you no work, as I am economizing
my expends?''
No such unchristian answer was given
to tbal jioor sufferer. The prompt ami
gracious words of the lady were theso:
"Ilftre is money to relieve your immediate
wj.nts. Call lo-morrow and I will give
vou wmc wo:k. I will rr?? out and bnv
# {? ~ J
some linen and let you make up a dozen
hair of drawers for my husband, lie docs
not need them just now; but you need the
pay for making them."
As one practical illustration is belter than
a dozen theory-?, we give the above as a
specimen of the kind of charity, and Christianity
too, that we believe in ; and if everybody
in the city who can afford it would
only onler to-day adoz.m pair of drawer*,
low many inoiniis won 111 be tilled, niul liow
many hearts would be made triad l>y such
a blessed piece of "universal extravagance."
Let our real millionaires (wc do not mean
tbc bogus 6orf,) men whose incomes range
fiom 825,000 to 8200,000 a year, consider
this question of disbursement in the light
tuc Minor lias endeavored to reflect upon it.
Instead of lopping o*V their expenses and
hoarding tlieir gains, tliey are called upon
by every regard for the well beinfr of society
?by the pangs of the starving, the agonies
of the dying, and by all their hopes of a
' ? happy hereafter, to scatter the bread and
the water of life freely from out of the abuuHnTion
