while attentive to all women with whom

for tho impartiality with which ho be
stowed these attentions. "Wo knew that

the rapid gallop of a horse sounded up
lrom n narrow valley, and, telling tlio
men near to bo ready, I rodo down the
sloping ground to meet the person ap
proaching. Soon I came to a placo that
gave me command of a long stretch of
road and halted just in the shadow. In
another moment a horseman dashed into

soon as my voice could bo heard I com-
mauded a halt, but tho order was un

Tho following nrliclo copied from tlio

of tho cause of tho present trouble iu Ire
land. A number of hints nro suggested
as to how farming niny be mnde success

In n Bocinl point of viow, Irelnnd is a
strnngo problem. With immense nil
vajitngcs ns regards situation, its near
neigliborliood to England, and its politi
cal status as a member on the United
Kingdom, it lags behind hi general peace
and prosperity. Ton certain extent it
continues meadircvnl, amidst tho surroun
dings of ndvnnced civilization. Oh all
occasions there is something wrong with
it. Sometimes it is alllicted with bad
harvests and terrible famines; nnd out
of public compassion, it has to be helped
by charitablo contributions. Al other
times, though the harvest happens to bo
favorable, there is a bitter cry thnt tho
tenant farmers nro oppressed by land
lord., who must by nil mentis bo got rid
of. Laws to meliorate alleged evils have
been frequently applied, but with aqual-ilidelj-
beneficial effect. Whatever you
do, Irish clamor appears to suffer no di
minution. Alps on Alps arise. Tho press
toils without intermission to keep readers
abreast of Irish wants. So union, one
way and another, is said about Ireland,
its woes, wishes aim disorders, and so
much has been done for it first and last,
thnt people give up the subject in des
pair. The problem seems beyond sol
ving. It is as if the ills of Ireland wero
incurable.

not bo left alone. If only for the sake
of pcace,it must bo attended tosomehow.

"the green islo of tho ocean" get into a
state ot affairs so peculiarly painful and
cxceptionablef Searching back,it is un
happily lound that, unlike the sister
countries, Ireland - had never any settled
national monarchy to consolidate and
mould its social condidion It had petty
kings nnd chiefs ruling over certain dis
tricts of the country, nnd under whom
the arts of pence made no proper advance.
There wero brilliant ecclesiastical epi
sodes. There were heroioexploits,particu
larly iu expelling Scandinavian intruders.
Finally, there was a long and ineffectual
struggle against tho Anglo-Xorman con-
inest, (luring winch matters were worse
ather than better. The English treated
Ireland neither as a colony according to
modern maxims, nor as an integral part
of tho realm of England. They kept it
down Iby force; and to help them in do
ing so, they partitioned a great part of
tno country among Jingiish generals and
other favorites. Tlio people were Celtic
in race nnd iu langunge,nnd for tho most
part they wero esteemed littlo better than
uniameauie savages. i no result was
frequent revolts,each ending in fresh ha
treds and Iresh conliscations.
Tho attempts of the English Govern
ment to liiiroiiuco mo ixciormed laith m
tho sixteenth century, stirred up fierce
disseirsious in Ireland, that havo only in
late years been appeased. Tho ficht, of

insurrections wero outdone bv tho re
bellion of Kill, which produced a, state
ot nnnrcny thnt Insted till 1019, when tho
country wns overrun by Cromwell.
Widespread devastations ensued, with
gifts of estates to favorito soMiers and
partisans. The Revolution of 1088
brought a renewal of disaster. Tho
intives generally took tho nart of tho
fugitive James II.; were defeated by tlio
forces of King William at tho ISoyne,
and again at Aughrim, July 12, 1091,
which settled tho affair. Uiifortunatelv,
but very naturally, tho recollection of
these humiliating defeats by William of
Orange wero kept alive by n series of
penal statutes unwisely conceived in tho
narrowest political spirit, nnd which
though long flinco relnxed, still cnuso
hostile party divisions aud occasional
outbreaks.
To do England Justice, it has a wn

to atouo for past wrongs, and shortcom

its endeavors to win tho oonfidenco of
tho Irish by n coui-so of generous deal

long will it tako to undo tho snd conse
quences of previous misgovernment?
Traditions of conquest and oppression
may in timo dio out or feebly linger ns
n matter of sentiment in song and ballad
literature. The distressing consideration
is , that usage adverse to a tranquil so
cial system havo been bequeathed and
losteied through the ignorance and gross
mismanagement of tho adventurers to
whom lands wero heedlessly assigned in
heritage. This brings us to the root of
icrennial disorder in Ireland. In tho

distinction of race, but to an erroneous

tho concourse ot historical circumst.nices
just averted to. To make this plain, wo
shall briefly point out what, according to

principles on which farms for ngiicultu-

all that is required for his accommoda

has no transaction with the incoming
tenant further than receiving payment
for the crop Iu tho ground. Selling tho
good will of a farm is unknown. Such
is the practico of land tenure iu Scotland.
where ii not absolutelv perlrct, it is as
nearly so as in nny pnrt of llio world.
Tho system evidently imposes heavy ob
ligations on tho landlord; but these are
nccepted ns n matter of course. Whero
nn owner cannot overtake theso obhgn
tions, ho must either borrow money or
sell out. So clearly nro tho mutual duties
of landlord and tenant defined, that usu
ally no disputes arise. Wc maintain
that it would not bo easy to improve on
these primary arrangements.
An a rule, so tar as we can gather.lhe
simple and efficacious process of laud
tenure now described is reversed in Ire
land. The outlay for dwelling houses,
fences and other improvements i thrown
on the tenant who hns a precarious occu
pancy, nnil may bo evicted without
compensation,- on failing to pay his rent.
jmi nisii cui respondent, willing in inu
limes. October fl, nnd who gives nis
name and nddress, explicitly says of Irish
tenant larmers: "all the buildings, len-
ces, larnt roads, surlace improvements,
nnd the drainage connected with tho
Irish landed property, aro tho invest
ments of the tenants. F.ven whero the
landlord borrows money for drainage
purposes from the Hoard of "Works, the
tenant is made to repay in the shape oi
increased rent, and is therefore tho per
son who has mado tho expenditure iu the
end." In this statement there arc per
haps exaggerations; but, undeniably
there is n very common practice in Ire
land ot throwing the cost ot dwelling
houses and some other essential charges
on the tenant. It can scarcely bo other
wise; ior whero landlords have hundreds
if not thousands of small tenants, they
could not provide them nil with houses,
nnd aro lrom sheer necessity obliged to
let them construct dwellings for them
selves. We nro prepared to learn that
these outlays of the tenants aro consid
ered iu the adjustment of rent; but tho
practice is wholly inconsistent with laud
tenure, and is seemingly tho fertile source
of disputes and entanglements.
Admitting that tho statements on the
subject are substantially true, we are en
titled to say, thnt here, staring us m tho
face, is tho cause of all the uproar iu
Ireland an enormous mass of small
tenants occupying the soil. The land
lords, it may be said, tdid not create tho
tenants. In the desperate struggle for
existence, the tenants came to the land
lords and bid one. ngainst the other for
their respective holdings. That may ac
count for tho manner in which tho small
tenure system began; but, it insufficiently
justifies its continuance from generation
to generation, when, by the multiplica
tion of fanulics, the system goes beyond
all bounds ot decency and endurance

Landowners, no matter where they are
located, are, in the eye of Xaturc and
man, invested with a soluiiiu trust, not
to bo trilled with. Irish landlords, in
their absenteeism, carelessness or extrav
agance, havo failed to recognize the ob
ligations incumbent on their position

cedure, they havo not done their duty
Wc do not deny that there aro good and
humane landlords in Ireland, who have
enlarged their farms to proper dimen
sions, and spent considerable sums on
pernuinent improvements. Unlit is not
to tliOM; wo allude. We arc speaking of
the hosts of landlords with swarms of
small tenants, whose condition is an an
omalny, an anachronism, a national scan
dal; nnd wo ask with some reason, why
the empire at large is to bo continually
tortured with reports of misery and dis
order, arising out of tho blundering man
agement of tills class of Irish cstatCK? Tt
was lately stated iu a newspaper, that a
certiain nobleman in Ireland had a thou
sand tenant farmers with rents not abovo
ten pounds each. Still later an Irish
landlord publicly makes tho avowal: "I
receive rcntK in Kerry from four thou
sand ono hundred and sixty tenants."
Such a confession! How can a country

agricultural or pastoral, are cut up into

peasant occupants at rents five, ten, or

Ancient Miner's Tools.
Tho miiieis in tho Silver Belt Mino
Wednesday made a remaikable discov
ery, fallowing that the mine was worked
ages ago. l he ten toot bonanza recent
uncovered, continuing to widen at
very stroke ot the pick, loll an over
hanging wall on ono side that appeared
more like a loom iu the ordinary wall or
em matter or a quart, ledge, and so soil
that it caved in such a way as to prevent
ork. They then went up above the cave
ind decided to run down on the ledge In
new place, so as to get under the cave,
n order to have solid mound to woik
n, and in cleaning away a placo to start
in they found lying on the ore, on top of
the ledge, in the solt loam three led
roni the surface five stone hammers
such as aro found in the ancient
uins and abandoned mines of the Aztecs
all over tho couutrv, showing clearly
that the Silver Helt has been worked iu
irehistoric times. This is the first
indication that has been found that the
the licit was ever diuibed before tlio
irescut owners uncovered it. Dan
Thorne recently exhibited ono of
tlio hammers, which a miner had broken
in order to sco tho quality of stono of
which it was made. 1 lie material is a
dark, tough, slaty-looking rock, such as
io ancients used in making till their
lammcrs nnd axes.

What the Chinese- Hat.
Except iu times of famine, such as
have lalelv dovnstated live of the prov
inces, causing tho death of about seven
millions of people, the Chinese havo
very good food. Indeed.a Chineso nurso
whom wo brought In with us, advises
her lellow hcrvnuU to emigrate to China
becnuso sho thinks Chineso vegetables
and fruits so much hotter than in th'm
country. I don't ngreo with her thero;
but really some of tho veiretnbles in
China are very good. I will describe
one of these. This vegetable is tho
young shoot of the bamboo. Tho bam-
)oo is one of tho most beautiful and val
uable of trees. It grows very inpidly.
Shoots come up from therootsof tho old
bnniboos early in April, and pushing
through thu soft enitli Miko asparagus.
(only much thicker, nnd hard and film
instead of soft,) they rench their full
heiglith that is to say from twenty to
thiity feet by .July; midyear after yenr
they grow no taller, but the hollow stem
hardens Its rind. This hard stem is tur
ned to every imaginable use. Tlio masts
nnd sails, and ropes and poles nn tilts
of ships nnd boats are mado of bniiiboo.
Hninshoots and chairs, tables and chop
sticks, ami cups and bowls all como from
this wonderful tree; and you often seo a
Chiiinmiin nt his dinner eating boiled
bamboo thoots, with bamboo chop sticks
in his hand and n bamboo vessel or bas
ket of boiled lico supplying his chief
dish.
