YourresAirs know that "turf" It the chief
fuel used bete, andr at this season': of the

of Ireland is under much better cultivation
:than the South, : The towns and cities pre-'
sent.a better! appearance,: and them isniess•
squalor and . beggary Among the . people.
The &ub of Iceland is Catholic, tho Nords
:is Protestant. ' Father Becker's login to the
contrary notwithstanding, facts show—and
facts' re stnbbent things—that whereihe in
fluence - of - the, Papacy prevails, theran. intel
lectual vier, moral strength and progress
in all that's good and noble. and elevating
are wanting.
The highest official in. Ireland is Ville
Lord Lieutenant" appointed by the crown
of England. Beholds his office for life, Or
"during good. , behavior,". and has his pal
tial-residence near Pheenix Park in Dublin.
Dublin is the largesreity 03 the Island, and'
is well worth a visit from the traveler. It
loan old city, and though it has a few fine
streets, and some magnifiet buildings, the.
"back sluing" are narrow, 'very ditty and
crowded with wretched, miserable human
beings. Cork rind - Dublin are both very
dirty and I never before saw such filthiness,
squalor, wretchedness and poverty as In
smite parts-ot tLvtiV Cite&
/11 Dublin the Duke of Wellington was
born, and in the Park a large splendid mon
ument has been erected to perpetuate the
glory of his name and his services in the
cause of his country. Here also were born,
and here lived. sonic cif the most eminent
orators of the postage. Barke,whose noble
statue in bronze, is: in the front yard of
Trinity College, Curran, Grattan, Emmet,
ike., , and it is now the home of the acholarly .
French t s,uoCessor to lyhately;,in the arch
' itiPiatiOpater. -- ' Ditbliti has a fine Petit: Nis
not so highly improved as some part' of
-Oeitfril Park; New Voik, nor has it so much
variety of scenery, but it is much larger,
containing .1,800 acres, and is surrounded
;by a aubsantial atone wall; herds of cows and
Young cattle feed on its pastures; and hun
dreds of deer ream over its broad acres.
The 4 zoologidil gardens are in it, and when
at a distance therefrom, we heard the lion's
tremendous roar. One part of the Park is
devoted especially to dowers, and I may
here add that from our first landing in Ire
land, we have been constantly impressed
with the exceeding richness, gorgeousness
and brilliancy of the colors of the flowers.
They are very beautiful indeed. The ge-
Xaniums, rudder', Ike., of our latitude do
not compare with them.
One object of 'much interest in Dublin is
the Bank of Ireland. It is in the old Par
liament House. In the room formerly oc
cupied by the members of the Heuse of
Commons, a hundred and more clerks are
now daily counting money Item morning
to night. The.room used by the House, of
m
Lords is it was when they left it. The
large table in the centre on which they
wrote, the chairs - on which they sat, the
statues of King Wilhain 111 and other nota
ble characters that looked down upon them
are there. It is a place of historic interest,
and will not soon be forgotten by him who
visits it. •
Another institution to which a visit should
be paid is Trinity College, theoldest college
in Ireland under the auspices of the Church
of England/ It was !blinded by 'Queen
Elizabrih,'nearly three hundred yeare ago;
bud has shirty one acres of most beautiful
grottfltN iri rivilrt of the city. The
original desii. ; n :If the institution was to edu
cute and etinip for their worklnlnisters of
the Episcopal Church, but it has been en
larger', and is now a Univeisity. Physiciani
. are educated there, and barristers and engi

The Irish Church Question has been for
some time, and still is, excitingmncteinter

-1 ellen say, "Yirs."' And I tan told that a

adherent of the Ohurch of England; is the
leader of the movement in Parliament.'Mr.
Bright is with him. i They both advocate
vigorously the aendowment of the Irish
Church.' What are the facts ? The
"Chu.-eh" population of Ireland, i. is. those
holding to and being reared in the faith of
Episcopalianism, is about 500,000. They
receive yearly from the Government .E600;-
000—three million. dollars in Yold—or, six
dollars for every man. woman and child,.
besides lands called:‘"glibes," amouming to
many thousands of acres- Every one must
aid in paving this enormous sum, no matter
what his . religious belief may be. The dis
endowment of the Church would lift a great
burden from the people at which they could
not but rejoice. In Cpunty Tyrone there is
a .church composed of one family. On a
wet Sunday the Rector sends over in the
'morning to see if ther family are "going to
church."' If not, he stays at home, -and
.'there is 'no service that day. And yet , he

COLFAX'S SPEECH AT SOUTH BEND.
SCHTIYLEII CoLvax, returning to
his home at South Bend on ithe 30th, was
welcomed with an enthusiastic reception, by
a vast gathering ( °flls neighbors of all po
litical sentiments. From his speech of ac
knowledgement on this occasion, we make
the annexed extracts :
'There is one thing that embarrasSes me
in speaking before you to-day. As I address
you there comes through into my mind the
great issues which themilllons of the Amer
ican people are to settle at; the Polls at the
November electionk but my lips, -from the
position that I now occupy before this peo
le are to be sealed in regard to these issues.i
I can not speak in regard to the platforms,:
nor can I speak as I deem propriety forbids
me, of the candidates that are arrayed
against us. I havevot deemed it proper or
fitting, when one is presented by the people,
or by a party representing a large portion
or a majority of the American people, for
the national offices - for which General Grant
and myself have been presented, to go into
the political arena and there discuss these
exciting and agitatingspieslions. My record
is made up before y_ou; I If, is written on the
pages of our country's legislation for the
past fourteen years. It is inscribed there
where I could riot erase it if I would, and
where I would not-erase it if I could. It
is there for good or It is my convic
tions expressed in my rotes, in my speeches,
in my letters; the convictions of my life
and of my heart, believed in with all my
soul and strength and mind. Not one
word of It shall I ever take' back. Every
word of it is confirnied to me ,by the expe
`Hence of past years, and .there is not, as I
look back atit, one single sentence. that,
:dying, ',would wish to' blot.
What may be the fpture for me, depends
not, now upon the people of this district
alone, but upon the millions of the American
people, I have faith—you know.how my
faith has been in.the times of national and,
party reverses—never flagging, never quail=
mg, never abating—l bave faith to-day. I
think ,I can see in all the signs of the times
the triumphant victory that a*aits the great.
leader of our Union hosts, rivalling in its
brilliancy and its benefleient effects upon
our country,• the , brilliant victories won by
him against the armies of the , rebellion. I I
believe an overrruling Providence holds the
destinies of our Union in his hands._ He
proved us as a :Union when treason seemed
to threaten bur existence. Re strengthened
our hearts for every sacrifice retPlirei at our
hands. (.11e lifted us to a nobler. plane. of
patriotism because he had determined„ as I
believe; t i liat treason should•fiever rule in
this fair land of ours. - [“aoo4, good," and
applause.] He saved - our Union ['Or us, and
the same over-ruling. Providence that
watched over the armies of Ike revolution
and led them to press on, year 'after year,
until the glorious light of victory shone up
on their banners, and then, in this late war,
-- t----
saved us wlien the rebellion that seemed to
the world outside likely to destroy our na
tional existence, will stand by vs. in this
contest. And although the men who were
pet down by the arms of the American peo
ple may rise again and proclaim their trea
tson througliont all that region, Re who
ruleth in the heavens will, as I believe,.
bring upon them a judgment Which the
polls shell manifest at the coating November
election. (Laud applause.)" , :,
And now, my friende, to-en-Me to the con
clusion of these reniurks—for I shall not
talk to you at great length-if. there is one
thing for which , I long. in this world to-day,
if there le one thought that rushes upper
most and above- all other thoughts- in con
templatiug the ermditionrof our cnuntry, it
is that thought embodied' ill those fourbrief,

him protection. [Shouts of applause=
"Hurrah, hurrah.for Colfax.."]
That ought to have been "Hurrah for
Grant," for I speak about him, as a candi
date, and not about myself. [Cheers for
"Grant and Colfax.] I haVe nothing to say -
Of myself as a candidate, for I have suppos
ed that if Gen. Grant should happen to be
elected /''should probably be. [Applause.
"Yes." ' "Thera it."]
They say-he cannot make a speech, and
you will:rtotice that I am saying nothing
about the principles, or the platform, dr the /
candidates of onr opponents. I have a
right to speak that which is in my heart
about all those who have come and stood --
with me around these noble Republician
principles 'of the past. ["You have."]
They say he can't make a speech. But ha
Imade one when the Committee of the Chi
cago Convention announced his nomination
rto him at his residence in Washington. It •
' was a speech of only eight lines, but there
were two- lines in it that were as weighty,
and that were as valuable as if they had
filled the teeming volumes that give to you
t the Instor,y of Cant/mins. They were these
works:- ! -4 1.1' elected; I shall have no policy ° t
to enfetree.a,gainst then will
,iif the people."
["Good' - good!" Immense applause.]
That is the declaration. [Renewed bursts
of applause.] It is a declaration worthy
of the men. It is. a. declaration worthy of
file cause. As he said in one of hie letters to.
the people enfereett, the law ;of ho land , ,
obeyed, we shall have peace, and with peace: 's
a progress and development unknown in:
the history of our country before. With ?
its magnificent area, with its boundless re
sources,
washed by the waters of the two
!neat oceans of the globe, checked in its'
edntinuous career by the horrors and losses
of war--with peace it will step for Ward
with gigantic tread, upward and onward,
until it attains a prouder position among the
family of nations than even it has attained
to-day. •We ,have,: within our limits, all
that makes a nation great. 'We have a ria-
tion brave, as they have shown themselves '-,'
to be; a people self-sacrificing, devoted, pa
triotic.
We hnve boundless resources, min- ! '
eral, agricultural,'. commercial and nuun i

ministration which shall obey the will of
