THE WORKING MAN.
The nriblest men I know on earth,
Are men whose hands are brown with toil,
\ Who, backed by no ancestrargraves,
liew down the woods and till the soil,
.And win thereby a prouder fame
Than follows king or:warrioe's name.
The workingmen, whate`er their task,
To carve the stone, or beai•the hod—
They we:r upon their honest brows
The royal stamp and seal of Gott!
. A:lcl:brighter arc the crops of sweat
Than diamonds in a coronet!
God bless the noble working men
Who rear the cities of the
'ho dig the mines and blind the ships
And drive the commerce of tbe, main;
God bless them, for their swarthy hands
Have wi•onght the glOry of all lands.
COMING, LOVE.

hear' the rustle of the leaves,
I.see a shadow glide
From the sweet stilltij.ss of the eves 1
When we were silk by side,
And ell the world was wide,, •
And we were all the world—mine own,
Its joy, and xnelody,-nnd moan, •
Until their crept undertone, •
And swelled to this deep dirge—lLO:GE.
Thy shadow, love, is coming-
Across the weary years ;
fly heart is faintly hamming
A song thy name endears ;
It almost breakS to,listen—
I feel thy tread so still,
And all the deu , :dfops glisten,
And all the roses thrill;
And all the blessed angels
Are smiling-from above,
And:singing , sweet evangels,
For thou artemning, love.
AN UNEXPECTED FraroNEs.
" It must be my child," said the poor
widow, wtping, away the tears -which
slowly tricklcd*down: her wasted cheeks.
There is• no' other resource. I am too
sick to work,' and you cannot, gore's,
see me and your Little, brother starve.
Try ar4beg a:few :Billings, and perhaps
by the time that is One I may be better.
Go, Ilenry, my" dear, I grieve to seed
yeti . orti such an, errand, but it must be
done.' -
The boy, a noble looking !little fellow
, of about ten iyearsi started up, and throw,
in his arms around his mother's neck,
'left the houSe • without a word.
_He, did
not hear 'the
_"groan of anguish thlit was
uttered by his parent, as the' door closed
behind him ; and it was well 'he did not,
foi" his little heart was ready to •hurst
without it. It was in a by-street in Phil
adelphia, and as he walked to and fVo on
the sidewalk, he'looked . first at one per-,
sou and at ; another, as they' passed
1-iiitif,, butno one seemed to look kindly on
him,•and -the longer .he waited, the faster
his - cmirage - divindled away,'and• the mere
diffiCult: it became to muster courage -to
beg.. The tears were running fast dcwn
his cheeks,-hut nobody noticed them,or
if they did nobody - seemed to' 'care ;;-for
although cleati,Jlenry looked pocs•and
miserable, it is, common for the port ; apd
miserable to •cry. : Everybody ,seemedrin

which accompanied his petitioni i
" Yon do not look like a boy that bas

said he, kindly laying his hatid on the

" Indeed," answered Henry 's his tears

Henry glanced at-the paper_and started
back—he took .it up, and as he read it
through aßain and again,
a cry of wonder
ful astonishment escaped him.
"What is it, my son ? " exclaimed the
widow, treMbling with an apprehension
of she kneiv net what. -
" .A.h; read, .dear . mother I God 1 - 3 s.
I heard us."
The-mother took the paper from - the
hands of her son, but no sooner had. she
fixed her. eyes upon it than,." My God!"
she °Welched, " it is Washington," and,
; fell back fainting upon her pilTow'.'
:The writing wag an cbligation—for
was indeed he—by which the widow was
to receive the shin of one hundred dollars;
from his thin private property, to be
dobled if nevssary.
Meanwhile the - expected physician
made his appearance, and soon awoke the
mother; from her feinting fit. The joyful
surprise, together with a good nurse, with
which the physician provided her, and a
plenty of wholesotite fo3d, soon restored
her to perfect health.
The ;influence •of Washington; who dis
ited theni wore then once, provided for
the Widow friends, who furnished- her
with constant employment, and her sons

THE iVIIIIEMPLE.-11e first rifle in

vogue in Yan.co was the so called pillar
ride of Tho venin, but the invention Of
M. Millie is: le one which has practically
revolutionized_ the firearms of the present
day. 1-Thit i r uirirovements made by .'Lq - .
Minid arej confined almost wholly to the I
form of 'the gun, out--nf which it is fired.'
The ball' is of an oblong conical . form,
something like an acorn without its enp .
but instead of being solid, this cone; id I
holloWed otit at the base into a cup fo6i':
The advantages of this form of projectile
are that It offers less resistance to the air
than a rotimlball would, and that having
its centrecutgravity in its foreinost part
it has sbl te"ndcney to turn over in its
flirlit; bht its chief merit: in afteilitary
point of view, is that with it the - rine can
be loaded as easily as the ordinary sumeth
bore gunu- the forcing of the ball into the;
croovesuf the barrel being effected by the
ramrod. i The form of the-rifle proper to
these conical missiles differs very little
from thoSe used with the old spherical
bullets, except that a three grooved gun,
and it is still an, unsettled question wheth
er' fehr oivoves would not be better than
three.. Viritli this weapon the soldiers
can Make far better practice at five hun. ,
