hiscousin's conduct, it was so very unusual.

A letter from. Waterford, alluding to the ruab of
emigration from that port, gaid on to say: "There
is no blinking the - question, that if the present
emigration goes on much longer there will not be
sufficient labor left in Ireland to till halt the land
for the-support of such as may survive the ruin
that is apparent to all acquainted with the country.
_lts truth was naively but candidly allowed by Mr.
Stephens, a solicitor, who, in the course of a case
lately tried, expressed the almost universal feeling
on this point. He said that if emigration contin

THE WAR IN HUNGARY
With regard to the war in Hungary, we end's.,
vor, in vain, by a pailful study of the various re
ports which rearb us, to discover the.actual post.
tion of the belligerents. All thatis certain is that
the war is carried on with the utmost ferocity.,
with alternate success. Wbat we must feet is
that the Russians having east with some alight
defeat, may seize upon the occasion to bring down
a sufficient farce to crush the whole insurrection

adopted by Government. .E.ery citizen of from 18
Cu 36 years of age was declared a Soldier, and who wished -to exempt himself from military ser
vice must pay a fine to facilitate his being replaced
by a'substitute. 'Troops were on their way to Po,
and the national guards ofthe provinces had' under
taken service of the carbineers, that the latter
might join the army. The Alba, of Florence, of
the 31st ult. announces that on receipt oflntelli
genes of the disaster suffered by the Piedroontese

composed of Mazzint, Armellini and Safil. It .was

This strange address from the goblin, instead of

Wealth of Pennsylvania.
The Iron and Coal of Pennsylvania, no doubt,
yields at thie time, PO,OOO per annum. It
is likely that in tea years, this sum will have in
creased to $50,000, and our coal and iron trade,
eventually, make Pennsylvania the richest State.
and Philadelpkia the wealikiest city in the Union.
Bat there are probably, in addition, many sources
of wealth not yet thought of. In England, !Ter
ms retie is being extracted from pest, and is has
recently been discovered that the whales of that
country contains a large amount of spermacetie
which can be economically' applied to the making
of oil and candles. We have abundance of shall
in PennsyNinio, which burns with a clear bright
flame. Why should not our Eastern neighbors,
instead of sending to the coast of Kamschatka for
