A FAMILY NEWSPAPER.
The Emigrant Ship.
During the last summer, business sum
moned us to one of the wharves of this city
at the moment when a ship from Liverpool
had just arrived, bringing some two hundred
and fitly einigiant s , men, %%omen and chil
dren fly Irish. uch ns we had hoard
and read of the condition of many of tlit.se
poor passengers, we never fully realivod
th e i r di7.tress until tve pr rsonalis witness
ed them.
The 1944igrants ship whose arrival we
witnessed had I”Tn seventy odd days from
port to port. Her passengers were of the
poorest class. Their means had been near
exhnitsted iugoing from Dublin to Liver-
Tool, and in endeavors to obtain work in the
latter city, previous to bidding a reluctant
but eternal farewell to the old country.—
They depended on a speedy passage
over the Atlantic In this they were die
appointed. The ship had encountered a
succession of terrific gales—it had leaked
badly, and they had been confined a great
part of the voyage to their narrow quarters
between decks, herded together in a noi
some and pestilential atmosphere, littered
With damp straw, and full of filth. "
What marvel that disease and . death in
' waded their ranks. One after another died,
died were launched into the deep sea. The
1 !ship entered Payal to refit, and there that
clime of endless summer proved to the em
igrants more fatal than the blast of the
Upas-poisOned valley of Java. The deli . -
cious oranges and the mild Pico wine, used
, liberally by the passengers, sowed the seeds
I of death yet more freely among their ranks.
On the passage frontPayal, the mortality
was dreadful, but at length, decimated and
diseased, the band of emigrants arrived
' at Boston.
It was a summer's day but no cheering
light fell upon the spires of the city. It was
damp and gloomy ; the bay spread out, be
fore the eye like a huge sheet of lend, and
the clouds swept low and heavily over the
hills and housetops. After the vessel was
moored, all the passengers who were capa
ble of moving, or of being moved; came up
or were brought up on deck. We scanned
their wan and haggard features with curi
osity and pity.
Here was the wreck of an athletic man.
His eyes, deep'sunken in their orbits, were
nearly as glassy as thoso .of a corps—his
poor attire hung loosely on his square
shoulders. Ilis matted heard rendered his
sickly, greenish countenance yet wan and
livid. He crawled about the deck alone—
his wife and five children, they for Whom he
had lived and struggled, for whose sake he
was makin g a last desperate exertion, had
all been taken !'rout him on the voyage.—
We addressed hint some questions touching
his family. "Tfo'y are all gone," said he
—..the wife and the childer. The lust one
—the baby—died this mornin'—she
low. 'they're best off where they are:"
In another plio:e sat„ a shivering, ragged
ir,—:3in
'There the blue eyed violet, meek and mild.

And a shadow comes In my heart and brow,
Whose sad foot hills on the (inlet glass !
What hand is tending the rio,es now ?
From the starry blooms of the myrtle vines,
NVho gently pushes the leave., away ?
And the silver thread kt filth the spider twines
Is it hroken not thrygh the livelong day ?
Oh, I know, in list vtilley, far away,
One heart still turns to its loved ash gone ;
And one ,kep, grown sadder with every day,
Comes often how to the graves alone.
Sad mourner, left on that Groff shore,
I have stood in the slind.lw beside thee [here;
But my raven tresses are swept no m re
