What a dreary phrase? How suggestive
of hungry craviags mid empty cupboards of
rciiless wauderings to and fro of gloomy
certainties and gloomier anticipations T How
it disturbs a roan's relations with society?

You are become a pariah without intending
it; and you eye squalid people with a sort of
shudder, half-persuaded that ere long you
will be of them. How grudging and envi
ous the world seems to have grown? You
fancy that every one is as well aware of your
feelings as you are yourself, and whatever
discourse may be addressed to you sounds
as if pointed with an embittered sting.
Northing to' do is bad enough ; but out
of work T hope-stifling words take us fsr
beyond, even across the Rubicon of desper
atton. And jet it is something to know
what tha phrase really does mean. It is a
teat to which you look bsck with feelings
similar to those which possess the surviver
of a shipwreck or other fearful calamity.
You won Id avoid the trial if possible; but
having gone through it, are rather glad tbau

roepecttons, it may be said, are not conge ni
l, yet it appears to me that human experi
ence, if reviewed in a right spirit, can hard
ly fail to convey a useful lesson to those who
read its history. My remarks are prompted
by what has happened to myself, and may on
tnat account, il on no oilier, present some
slight claima to notice.
Out of work! bow the grim reality haunta

Then you understand fully why Keats speaks
ef sleep as "comfortable, and join hearti

forget the soothingeharm as the unconscious.
nets of sleep gradually stole over me. It
innuonce would remain lor a lew brief mo
ments on first awaking the next morning;
but presently a vague apprehension of some
impending ill would creep over me, and then,
when fully awake, my heart swelled with one
huge choking throb, and tha leaden gloom
aetlled down on my mind for the rest of the
aay.
How the moral reacts on the physical !
i Used to walk briskly ; now I went about
with s hesitating step, and with a bearing
that threatened to degenerate into a slouch
l once believed my prineiplea firm, and my
faith in essential points sound that nay

uemy given way, ami i wss sdnft on a sea
of uncertainties. I began lo fancy myself
ni-usen, and that be was the wisest who, in
the general scramble, grasped most. What
had 1 dons to b thus summarily deprived of
ways and mean, while men whom I thought
not naif so deserving war in full work 1 It
was a hard question to answer under the cir

many there were who could live In esse and
comfort without laborious toil, while I, at the
beat of time, had nothing but my manual
akill and a week's Wagtis between my little
bouse -bo Id and destitution. Turn it which
way I would the idea was a harassing one.
The new spirit that possessed me seemed
ndowed with a resistlesa power of gravita
tion. Society, in my view, had become inordi
nately selfish : bow cleverly it had entrench
ed itself within laws and statutes, so that if
tbodinglv anxious without the pale ven.
tured to kelp myself to the superabundance
of otbsra, it would be under peril of libertyl
Waal right had society to make a law which
seemed expressly intended to sggravate my
necesitous condition? Was I not the victim
of a wanton injustice T Such thoughts as
these make the work of temptation very easy
for the temper. Whatever might be socie
ty's notions on the matter, mine were, that
retaliatory measures would be perfectly jus
tifiable. I walked about it seemed to me that I
sneakedseeking for work. The masters
surely bad leagued against roe ; bow, other
wise.could be explained their malicious neg
ative to ray inquiries? There was the roar
and bustle of life and traffic in the thorough
fares, which made me loathe my forced idle,
ness. I had no business there j I was one
too many in the world. How the aspect of
affairs had altered ! When in full work, I
had not unfreqnenlly considered it a hard
ship to work so many hours every weak
for so comparatively small a remuneration.
Now, in retrospect, the wage appeared an
enviable fortune. Unconsciously to myself
I was learning a significant lesson, fraught
with pmloond instruction. Could I have
appreciated it then as 1 do now, what a load
of heartache it would have spared me ?
Staying at home became irksome te me :
borne appears somewhat strange to a work
man on a working-day, and although my
perambulation might be fruitless, it seemed
that I was less idle when so occupied than
hen loitering within doors. Some morn-
ngs a faint revival of hope would make me
feet certain of getting work in the eoerse of
the day, and I started forth animated by all
ray former confidence. Unsubstantial trnstT
The first disappointment brought back all

had made up mine to brave it oat, but the
effort was too much Ut me. By a strange
contradiction, too, notbtvithatanding my ea
ger desire to be again employed, there were
times that I shrunk from the thought of work
as an owl shuns the eunlight.
How often the few remaining dollars were
counted I this wss in New York. I des
pised myself for calculating on how little
my family could be made to exist for a given
time. My heart grew hard, and I often shod,
riered lest it should never soften again.
How slewly time paaaed! the days bad grown
longer on purpose to torment me, and the
thousand bewildering thoughts that preyed
upon me had ample leisure for their work.
r adix detctnsus averm ; the pbrsse is ss
true now aa when originally penned two
thousand year ago. When first cast loose, 1
had felt sure ef readily obtaining employ
ment in my regular trade : the idea of con
descending to inferior occupation wss not to
be for a momeql entertained ; it would dam
age my respectability, and disturb my self
esteem. But as the wearr time wore on,
the imperative necessity of providing food
for a certain number of mouths every day.
left no alternative, no possibility of over
scrupulousness in conventionalities. Res-'
pectahility soon ceased to be a bug-bear ; if
cabinet-making waa not to be had, 1 would
take carpentrv or jobbmz-work. These fail-
i"g, I next called on the shipwrights, but
with no better success ; and then I bethought
myself of trying other resources. It had al
ways been one of my purposes and pleasures
to see as much of other trades ss possible,
to visit and inspect all sorts of workshops,
by which means their most obvious details
had become familiar to me. I knew enough
of shoemaking, bookbinding, printing, and
some other trades, to be able to earn small
wages at one of them. Should these also
fiil, it was all but certain that some sort ol
rude labor could be hunted up, which would
furnish at least a pittance till more prosper,
ous days came round again. My heart often
tailed me while following out this new queet,
yet I did at last get through my task of seek
ing any kind of work. In some respects it
was a repulsive task, for in the lower grade
of shops and places of work I found a lower
class of workmen ; men on whom vice' bad
set its mark, in whom depiavity of mind and
heart had become habitual, whose talk was
.se . n
as coarse as tneir looks. "Misery, ssys
Shakspeara, "acquaints a man with alrange
bedfellows, and the dread of being compel
led to mingle with debssed associates in.
creased my apprehensions. Necessity, how-
however, bas no law; a needy man must
work, if not wheie be would, then where be
can. It is a critical time ; lor there is more
or less danger that contact and ctielotn may
lead a man to "put up with his altered po
sition, aud gradually assimilate himself to it.
Many a man in such circumstances is apt to
aay, "What's the use of trying to keep a fair
front to the world? Who cares whether I
sink or swim? Lettbingstske their course."
However, on the occasion here more partic
ularly referred to, my asking for work proved
fruitless; whether it was that I looked too
dejected or too unpractised, no one would
employ me.
Who shall describe'the prostration of heart
and soul with which a man who has been
wandering the whole day in a vain seeking
for occupation returns at night-fall to his
borne ? The dispiriting is occasionally so
extreme, tbst for a time the solaces which
there await him fait of their effect. It is in
such circumstances that a man learns to sp.
preciate rightly the valne of a good wife ;
one to whom he can aay with truth-
When pais and asgniab wring Us brew,
A'sainistering angel thon.
If she be kind and considerate, she will

verse lonune than men. If, on such occa
sions, the wife will strive insincerity to be
come a "ministering angel, bow soon will
ber'gentle words sooth the "chafed spirit of
her husband 1 With what blessedness her

stancea without its compensating quality.
Herein toe married man is more, favourably

sustaining resource which the other knows
nothing ef. But on the other band, no fate i
can be more deplorable than that of a man

less wife, and contumacious cbildee.
It must be confessed that the general aa.
peet of such a season of trial as above indi
cated ia sufficiently discouraging; the down
ward tendency appears to be inevitable.
But there is a remedy ; and this remedy is
to be found in the spirit of self-reliance -in
firm moral principle. And it will be a las
ting satisfaction to me that I was enabled to
apply this remedy, aa a fragment'of experw
ence may serve to exemplify. The mental
and physical condition which I have endea
vored lo pourtray in the foregoing paragraphs
was not permanent il was but the stunning
effect which the natural reaction would pre
sently dissipate.
One evening, after a long spell of involuntary
idleneea, I waa aeated thinking over ray pros
pects, when all at once the though struck sne, MIf
no one would espUiy you. aet yourself to work."
No sooner waa the thought formed, than I started
opto act npon it; one aide of our kitchen was
occupied by my bench ; I got inio working trim,
eharpened my too, and sawed a pair of enda for
a chiffonier out of a mihogany alab which I had
by me. These were planed and properly aqeared
bclore I went lo bed- that night ; and woodroua
waa the effect which manual labor produced.
Fling but a atone, the giant diea,' saya the poet
and moat truly; for aa my limha fell into ibeir
aceufttomed movements, and the shavings whis
tled fnm my plane, the anxious carea forsook me
and hope resumed her sway strong in the vig
or of self help. It ie true the prospect of profit
was bat slender. That, however, waa not the
prime advantage, which lay in the restoration of
mind to iia healthy tone ; atill, in a large city
purchaeee are alwaya to be found for fabricated
wares, and small gain is belter than complete
inaetion. Beeidea which, a man who keepa him
self employed ia more ready to improve auch op
port unit ie a aa fall in hs way, than one whose wor
king babila are weakened by disease.
Idleoeaa is by all meana to be eschewed, and I
would nrge thin point atrongly on the attention in
working men my Ute companions. The resource
which I adopted m such an obviously nataral one.
aa to have since caused me much sarariee that it
did not occur to me with diaiinctoeee before the
second week of ray wandermga. And mine la no
exceptional case ; what I did may be done by
others. There are few tradea at which a man
cannot work at hia home that ia. if be bas the
will to do ao. If be wil! only exercise a proper
thrift while in work, be will not lack the mean o!
parchaemg male rial on which to employ himself
when oecesaiiy compels. Let tbse wbe aaay
feel diapoeed to undervalue such apparently in
significant means ren.em&er that it ia eaaier to o-
bey a fixed habit, than :o recover it if broken or
lost ; and no purpose, however alight, ia to be des
pised which may serve to keep a in an out of the
way of evil aseociaies or temptation. Il would
be well also, if every artificer would learn some
thing of other tradea as well aa hia own, as he
would thereby not only multiply his resources,
but be better able to judge of fitting occupations
for his children
There is no reason either, as I afterwards hsd
occasion to prove, why the days spent in looking
for work should be altogether wasted, ror.vjitb
ol losing sight of the main chance. I took occa
sion to visit the noteworthy parte of the ciiy, pub
lic buildinga, wharves, docks, sod when practica
ble, factories snd workshops. Nor did I confine
myself to the town, but walked a few miles in
various direction into the country, where, if
nothing else was lo be seen, there waa alwaya
natural scenery, whose influence on the ojind is
ever quieting and elevating.
Laaily. in integrity of character consists the
most potential remedy ; it ia the soring of all the
reat. Ii ia that which gives and maintains the
energizing impulse. A wise writer has obeerred
that "a atraight line is the shortest in morals aa
well a in geometry." And ao it is, even ia a
calcnlative point of view. The steady, honest
worknan ia leaa exposed to Icaa of woik or dis
missal than be who baa no aetlled conviction as
lo what ia right or wrong ; he is better able in
keep money in bis pocket, and to provide for bis
children. Here is so much clear gain ; but when
we come to higher views, how immeasurably su
perior does moral rectitude appear 'hat which
springs from the soul, sod aims at aotnelhing be
yond mere peconiary advantage Aud such s
condition of mind and heart is possible to every
man, I would endeavor to impress on all who
shall read what I bave here written, as sn unfail
ing resource throughout the changeful clrcuu
stances of life. Foaaeaaed of that spirit of eter
nal juatice which does aa it would be done unto.
