THE LABORER IS WORTHY OF HIS
HIKE.—XOW that the good fight has
been fought, we feel justified in appeal
ing to our friends who are in arrears to
pay up. We are always at much ex
pense during political campaigns, and
invariably come out of them with deple
ted pockets. We owe some debts which
must be paid. Will those who owe us
respond to this appeal ? Come and set
tle, at any rate. This is the last dun
we shall print. Our accounts must be
settled, and we shall make out bills
for all unsettled accounts and place
them in the hands of an officer for col
lection. We shall do this with great
reluctance, but it must he done, if kind
words are of no avail.

in a few days, have these respected parents been
bereft of all their dear children. Litt'e Martin

their father and mother. But how soon the icy

the greatest joys and blasted the fondest anticipa

"'Tis Jesus speaks! I fold, says he,
These lambs within my breast ;
Protection they s all find in me,
In me be ever blessed.

But can't dissolve my love ;
Millions of infant sou is compose
The family aheve."
