Dissatisfaction.

BY JACOB B. DOCKENDORFF.

We covet worldy gain, and prize Most any calling but our own; Our hamble labor we despise - We fancy all its charms have flown; We deem another's lot the best Because we see the brighter side, While, in the garb of beauty dress’d, Sorrow and shame may oft abide; Fancy can never, never buy W hat stern realities deny.

‘Oh! give me wealth,” the poor man cried, **And deeds of charity [ll do. I’il raise the ne-dy, hamble pride, And be a fellow-helper true.” Now he is rich, but fails to hear When want and poverty implore; The poor he passes with a sneer, He turns the hungry from his door ; Riches can never, never bay Kindness of heart and charity.

The pris’ner, chafing with his chains, Cried, ‘‘Liberty is all I ask; Then, naught but happiness remains, And life will prove a pleasant task.” Loosed were his chains, but crime has bound His heart in raore than iron bands, And ere his happiness is found, Justice his liberty demands: Freedom can never, never buy The guileless heart and honesty.

“Oh ! how I long to bea man, And all my tedious school-daya past; ? I'll be a soldier if I can, Or e'se a tar before the mast.” Thus longs the boy for manhvod stern, And builds his airy castles wild, Only through time for youth to yearn, And sigh, **O would I were a child.” Manhood can never, never buy Glad childhood and simplicity.

‘‘With you to comfort and advise, I’}l face the proud world and its frown, Your changeless love is all 1 prize— I ask not riches nor renown.” Thus sighs the lover as the smile Of beauty captivates his heart; He lives to learn that to beguile Life’s frown requires other art : K’en love can never, never buy That boon, a lasting harmony.

The penitent, on bended knee, Cried, ‘Wilt Thou of Thy grace impart ? Naught else | find can comfort me, And Thou hast said, ‘Give me thine heart;’ Take it and fill it with Thy grace, My life, my all I give to Thee.” He asked, received; nor changed his place For aught save tor eternity : All else can never, never buy The grace to live, the faith te die.

All earthly idols must decay, The fairest flowers droop and lie, Earth’s pleasures are but for a day,

The soul they cannot satisfy; Sorrow and pain a balm requires

More ho'y than a form of clay;

He lives the most who most aspires

Ta height~ beyond life’s poor array : The faithful never, never buy The lasting pleasures they enjoy.

Emperor William and the Work- ingmen.

According to a recent despatch from Berlin the Emperor has issued an order ty the new Minister of Commerce in which he says, however valuable or important are measures now in operation for improving the condition of the working people, they are not te be compared with what the proper performance of duty before the new minister will require. He then specifically directs au extension in the application of the system of workingmen’s insurance and tha opening of inquiry into all trade laws affecting fac'ory labor. The Emperor aflirms in the rescript that it is the duty of the state to so regulate the duration and nature of labor as to ensure health, morality and supply of all economic wants of work- mgmen and to preserve their claims to equality before law. For the promotion of peace between workingmen and their employers, legal measures must be taken toward the establishment of regulations empowering workingmen to appoint dele- gates enjoying their confidence to represeat them in the settlement of affairs, these delegates safeguarding the interesta of the workingmen whom they represent in all negotiations with employers or with the government.

News Notes. The influenza epidemic is increasing in Mexico.

New York capitalists have arranged to start a sugar refinery in Vancouver, B. C.

The annual statement of the Southern Pacific R. R. Co. for 1889 shows gross earnings of $16,146,190, and total ex pendi- tures $14,801,894.

_Emperor William, of Germany, has de- cided to invite France, England, Belgium and Switzerland to join ina conference with a view of ameliorating the condition of the workingmea,

_ At Marshwood, Pa., during a christen- ing, a lamp overturned and exploded. The dwelling was burned. Mrs. Joseph Strausas, her two children and Michael Switz were burned to death,

_ Russia has ordered two large ironclad frigates to be built in England, Four firms on the continent tendered under the Englieh firm, but the czar insisted that the ships should be built in England.

_ A phenomenal rainstorm has prevailed in southern Oregon since iast Friday, which, in ovnnection with the melting snowsin the mountains, has caused the greatest flood known since that country was settled. Great damage is reported.

Murray Harbor South Womens’ Missionary Society.

THE annual public meeting of the above Society was to have been held on New Year's eve, but was postponed on account of the death of Mrs. J. R.

We hope they will endeavor to give us an entertain- ment once a quarter instead of once a year as at present. .
