THE MINERS:
A STORY OF THE OLD COMBINATION LAWS
[CONTLN UCD FR9M TUESDAY.]
But to return to Lieutenant Peeche. No sooner
had he got his hands on a little of his wife's
money, or " the plunder," as one of his brothers
wag) called it, than the fortunes of his whole
family took a remarkable start of improvement.
Colonel Peeohe removed to a more aristocratic
part of the city of Dublin, and set up an equi
page ; Captain Algeruon Peeche found his way
to a majority ; and Lieutenant and Acting-Quar
termaster Percival Peeche purchased his oom•
party. All this showed Lieutenant Peeohe to be
a very dutiful fellow to his real relations, and to
have a proper feeling towards his wife, as she,
being the daughter of a coal-master, and of in
ferior rank to him, was therefore to be pigeoned
in the game Qf marriage, just as her upstart
father would have been rightly served in the game
of ecarte.
He also showed a strong disinclinition to take
upon himself the active conduct of the business.
This arose partly from dislikq to any employ
ment excep' the toil fools_esill the pursuit of
pleasure, partly from want of sufficient educa
tion, (for carving, dancing, and gallantry are
hardly enough of that for the counting-house,)
but meetly from lack of adequate intellect. He
was great, however, with the horse, dog, and
and soon became a psrfeot sportsman, leav
ing that vast business which supported him in
pleutlor, and enr.ched Lis connections, with all
Its cares, speculations, and immense correspon
dence, to the management of his wife, and whom
soever of the numerous underlings connected
with it she chose to call to her aid. He gave
many and splendid dinners, moreover, and the
eating and drinking gentry of the neighborhood
began to flock around, while his house was al
ways free as the barrack to "ours."
But it was not many months before Mrs.
Peeche began heartily to repent her bargain.
The warmth of her love for his pretty face and
figure evaporated. It was a merely animal pas
sion, and as such departed with its gratification;
and she began to regard with satiety and disgust
that beauty which had erewhile so captivated
her She found him not only idiotically ignorant
on all useful subjects, but contented himself with
his ignorance, and disposed to monk with an
inane ridicule- any show of knowledge or talent
she or others might happen to display. .0n all
matters that required judgment or information,
or the application of thought for any time, he
was utterly helpless, while at the same time he
entertained neither respect for the talented, nor
gratitude for the assistance they might yield.
Moreover, he bad never loved her;
,he had not
mind enough for that passion; he had all along
regarded her, as we have said before, merely as
a pigeon to be plucked by him in the game of
matrimony—as a prize for himself and kis fam
ily. is time went on he did not scruple to tell
her this. Before the first year of their marriage
was over ho bail become to her an object of con
tempt, a detested burden, a dreaded torment.
Whim she began first to see him, as the gloss
of prettiness of parson and of heroin scarlet
fa.lel from him, an ignorant and fool,
she could not but institate a comparison between
him and that other who she believed loved her
with his whole soul, and was now suffering the
pangs of disappointment—the all-gifted and able
Edmund Vesper. Disgusted with the blggarly
aristocracy of the colonel's eon, she saw a true
and high nobility in the genius of the young
plebian. Tired of the stolid beauty of the one,
her admiration flew to the quick eye, and sharp
dark features that spoke the active intellect of
the other. Worried to death with the yawning
'nnui, the lisped affectation, the stupid and often
indecent slang of the stable and dog kennel, she
pined for the low-pitched and thrilling voice, the
musical sentences and glowing ideas, of her for
mer humble lover—for his exhaustless informa
tion on all topics, his dauntless talent, equal to
every effort, and his indefatigable business
ability, which no labor,could tire,'no difficulties
Edmund could not but look upon his rival with
a contempt which envy at his success elevated
into fierce detestation ; and as he, sat day by day
in his-small wood-lartitioned counting-room in
the truck-store, so intense became this hatred, so
complete his despair of advancement, that he
meditated the infliction upon him of some griev
omA bodily harm. It was to sound his brother,
who had the power to effect thie, he well knew,
?tan ease and certainty, that he paid him the
visit we have detailed.
But as time wore on, when he saw the feeling
growing up between the pair, when he marked
it with his, whole soul, ,as alive to it as the ear of
ezirninal . to his sentence, then did his spirits
mount , tigain to more than their former level, and
he set his active wits to work with all their pris
tine energy.
It was not long after the marriage Lill he was
recalled to lend his aid in the chief conduct of
the business of his new master. The latter saw
him, surveyed him carelessly—would have done
it with an eye-class, had such a thing been in
faOlion then—and, on being informed that his
skill and ability were indispensable, gave his
consent to his being placed in the situation of
chief confidential clerk, and,,turning to an emi
nent rat-catcher who was with him at the time,
begin to converse about the state of the stables
in regard to vermin.
Edmund was now continually about the parson
of Nlrs. Penile, appearing before her in his best
light, and exerting upon ,her all his, powers of
fascination, and they were many. His object was
to lead her to crime, partly for his own advan
tage—to have her nompletely in his power,
pat tly from revenge : for, from the first time she
had unfeelingly laughed at, his early blunders, he
had cherished against her a vindictive feelirg,
wiiich his late disappointuient, and the secondary
misery it besides had bred for laim, had certainly
cot put to rest. dud the whole of this love,
then, was acted—it had been all along, a decep
tion for the purpose of anibitiou and revenge !
We cannot deny that her bvanty, which was
considerable, had made. some impression upon
him ; but it was decidedly not that of love.
It is hard to imagine one' seducing a woman
out of pare animosity ;—but. when you reflect
that in eeduction it is the woman's rain that is
suught, you will, be able at once to unravel the
paradox. No one could be better fitted for such
a course of proceeding than Edmund—totally
unprincipled as he was—capable of keeping a
great bad purpose constantly before hia mind,
and of bringing great powers to boar upon its
furtherine.:e—posseseed also of a knowledge of
maul 111 infiuitely greater -than might have-been

sour, of extensive' reading in poetry and roe
mane in mental .philosophy and in the great
bock of nature, he brought to his aid—every
Rcheplo of attraction, every winning artifice he
could think of, he practised upon her, till the
poor lady looked upon his company as &relief—a
refuge—iit heaven-_--and oursedler folly in choos
ing tho glittering. ass, from whose society she
now tied to his, as she would from a lazar-house
to a bower in Teterve.
la a short time lie was succesaful she became
completely his, and doted on him with an admi
ration, a devotion, and a joy, which she felt was
truly love, and as d;fferent oven from the regard
she had formerly entertained for herlinsband, as
it again was from, the contempt in which she held
him now.
But all this was totally unoipeoted even by the
menials of the house, :a eat of - people who gen
erally are the, first perceptive of such affairs.
Edmund was too sagacious to allow it to be
the slightest degree evident;'and, while he had
the wife sosompletely in his porter, he was find
ing his way rapidly, into the _good graces of her
husband. By au exceedingly (distant and defer
ential"deportment in his presence, by numerous
flatteries, well disguised and skillfully adminis
torati, and by a well acted devotion to his inter-
eats, he in a short time succeeded in gaining his
entire good-will, and unquestibningelseclience to
every - suggestion in matters connected with the
business. And this fact, ,whereat he made very
merry in private with Mrs. Peectie,
,only sank
her husband a degree still loWer in her contempt

NUMBER 15,1
APPEAL FOR IRELAND.
Countrymen and Fellow-Christians —ln the
wilds of Donegal, down in the bogs and ems of
Gweedore and Cloughancely, thousands upon
thousands of human beings, inad, after the im
age and likeness of God, ale peli,bing or next
to perishing,, amidst squalidno,s and in misery,
for want of food and clothing, far ~ . way from hu
man aid and pity. On bArdi of t aose famishing
victims of -oppression and persecution, we yen:
Lure to appeal to your kind sympathies and re
ligious feelings, and hope that, for the sake of
Him - who bore our infirroatios, you will share with
us their distress by lending - some substantial as
sistance to enable us to relieve their wretched
ness, and rescue them from death and starvation.
The ground of this Appeal is'simple, and may be
thus simply told:—
The districts of Gweedore and Cloughaneely
are the bleakest and most mountainous in Don
egal in Ireland. The entire surface is broken
up by huge, abrupt, and irregular hills of gran
ite, covered with a texture of stunted heath,
while the space between is but a shaking and
spongy marsh. The inhabitants of these wilds
are all Celts of the 'pure old race, with the pure
old faith" who.cnitivate small patches of arable
land along the shore or claddah, on which their
wretched cabins are built, and subsist principal
ly by rearing stook and grazing sheep on the
steep sides of their mountains and in their hol
low glens. The increase of their flocks they icild
to meet the landlord's rent, mid the ether exi
gencies of life, while of the wool of their - Sheep
they manufacture frieze and tummy as clothing
for the male and female members of their families
respectively. Thus, from time immemorial, they
lived in the enjoyment of these wild mountains,
leading a most innocent. and peaceful retrial life,
warm and faithful in their friendships, while their
attachment to the old faith war. stronger than death:
Laet year brought a sad change on these warm
hearted peasants. All the landlords of these
districts, save, one, simultaneously deprived them
of their mountains, giving them to Scotch and
English grazier for sheep walks, and at the same
time, doubled, trebled,
_and in many instances
quadruple the rents on the miserable patches left
them. These mountains so unjustly pressed from
the unfortunate pativera were peopled with Scotch
and English sheep. But eetider still the strange
sheep imported to these menutaime throve not.
Last winter was very prejudicial to sheep, par
ticularly under Scotch treatmeat—the Donegal
mountains proved treacherous, and their tracts
devious to strangers. The sheep recently placed
0)1 this strange pasturage were prone, from nat
ural instinct, to wander, and the Scotch sheiY
herds were supinely negligent in the duties .of
their ceiling. The natural cousetrencea was
that large numbers of the sheep etre) ed-large
numbers of thbm wee lust in beg-holes—awl
large numbers perished through the inclemency
of the winter, and the want of proper care. Dur
ing the penal laws, wQ are told that Grand Jury
levies were made upon Irish Catholics for losees
sustained by Protestant merchants at the hands
of Catholic powers, with whom England might
happen to be then at war. It must have been
iu the same spirit, that in order to recompense
the losses of the Scotch. and English graziers, an
enormous and unjust Grand Jury Warrant WWI
obtained against these innocent Celia. And, in
order, moreover, to carryout thjs iniquitous en
actmeat, and the more effectually to secure the
adverse and unjust possession of those mountains
an extra force of constabulary was, at the in•
stance of the landlords, ordered to these districts
for whose sue port a most runious tax has beet
imposed on the wretched inhabitants. In sheet,
by those and slmilarily unjust and arbitrary -era
ceeding, the stun of about this, thousand I:DUBE'S
has been levied on the poorest and most misers.
ble district on God's earth. Already the law
officials, backed by 300 constabulary, have, at
the bayonet's point, collected the last farthing of
this enormously dispreportioned levy. The poor,
shivering, and famished peasants, under the ter
ror of an armed force, wielded by officials with
out feeling or humanity, were obliged to sell
their little scanty 'bits of potatoes and email
stacks of rye and corn to meet this merciless de
mand. It is almost incredible the means these
poor creatures restored to, in order to make up
the necessary sum. Many went thirty miles to
borrow or beg the money from their friends—
many Bold their kitchen furniture and-utensils—
and even mothers were known to have sold their
cradles It was, truly, a eight to mske angels
weep, to see the poor helpless fathers, amidst
the tears and wailings of their more helplesi
wives, and hungry children, parting with the last
stone of their potatoes and other necessariee of life
to pay this
~ 'iniguitous tax. The stalwart and ro
bust peasantry could do nothing but weep, the
womanly hearts of the mothers were wrung with
agony, and the ragged children—poor innocent
thiugs—bewailed in lOnd cries had eenvnisive
sobs, their forlorn lot. And we, who witnessed
these scenes of woe, are not ashamed to confess
that we too shed tears—untlysiling teara—cif
pity and sympathy for them. But there as no
remedy. Like Herod's savage maasatirtauf the
Innocents, the warrant was unfeeling 4 execut
ed. The - foul and dastardly deed was penetrated
—consummated. And thus the feed of some
thousand families has been swept away, and
their only means of `auppurting mid clothing them
selves cruelly pressed :row theta Whether the
objecea of the landlord's harsh and tyrannical
treatment of to these poor peasants is to crush
them out, or wring from them a, large revenue,
we.will not stop to enquire; but we have no hes
itations in saying that, unless they are assisted
in their present distress, they rastet sink under
the weight of
_their; misery, must be blotted
out of existence, and that their once happy
homes will become walks ter a Scotch and Luz
lish hoggeta. They are nose, at ail events, in
consequence of such treatment, perishing cf hut:.
