CP If John Mitchell doesn't like the way
that Americans rule America, the world is be
fore him and he can go elsewhere, if he choos
es. While, however, he makes our land an
asylum, good taste, and good manners suggest
that abusive language toward the majority of
our people and the rulers whom they choose,
should be very sparingly bestowed. While
we criticise each other with great freedom,

Correspondence of the Journal
TYB0X3, A3T.D "EE.IE A. S.CA5.
Philadelphia, Dec 13. 1354.
H. IE Swoon:, Esq., Dear Sir: As you are
(he only one of the Editorial fraternity f Clear
field with whom I had tho pleasure of becom
ing acquainted during my short visit to your
enterpising Borough in August last, I have
been induced to think that a few remarks
from me upon the subject of our projected
Railroad, will not be ill-timed or unaceptable.
In anticipating the meeting of the friends of
this great measure, which is advertised to be
held at Tyrone City, ou the 11th day of Janua
ry next, I must be permitted to express the
hope that it will not only equal, but far sur
pass their most sanguine expeetations.and that
every true friend of our Railroad will return
from this convention, fully convinced of the
great importance of the undertaking, and the
necessity of uniting every effort towards con
summating an enterprise which will undoubt
edly bring such an abundance of grist to their
respective mills.
As an early and constant advocate of the
route of our proposed improvement, I cannot
but regnrd with pleasure, any and every move
ment which has for its object the further expo
sition of its merits as a line of communication
between Philadelphia and her little sister on
the Lakes, and 1 hope that our meeting in Jan
uary will prove the dawning hour of its inline
diate prosecution and its future prosperity.
There are and have been few enterprises of
a similar magnitude, which combine so many
advantages and which have such strong claims
upon the attention and support of our entire
business and travelling community identical
with the State road for 70 miles, and with the
Peunsviv.-inia Railroad for 151 miles, our Rail
road should undoubtedly becoma the great
lateral feeder conveying iu one unbroken av
enue the immense freight of tno Lakes, to one
common c ::tre increasing, to a gt .".it extent,
the amount r.f revenue to both, and enriching
our beautiful city by the concentration .f a
trade which is now almost lost to her al
though within the limits of our own iron
bound Commonwealth.
XV.tr as we are to our modeft little City on
Ike L ikes, is it not wonderful, or sontewh.tl
marvellous that us yet, we are only connected
with her by a State relationship
The ties of blood are really strong, but. you
v.ill agree with r.ie, iu these times. the tis id
Pennsylvania are somewhat ttronger and t:s
sured'y mi-re lasting.
Here we have a route which lies wholly with
;n ot.r Commonwealth; a route which ia point
of dtVrc'i,'-'il ,u'-'l be.il advantages, has no su-Tvtrior-
i route which net ontv serves as a

LcxcFORp, Ireland, Nov. 1 1, "51.
Dear i'ir : I have at Ut set down to write
you a few lines from this '-isle of the Ocean"'
and the land of my birth. I have been ramb
ling about so much that I could scarcely find
time to write at all. I have been across the
country from Dublin to Sligo, on the Western
coast, and from thence I went down to Lnis
killen near Lough Reei, (which you may see
on a m.ip of Ireland) eo that I have seen a
sample of it all, a.d likewise experienced a
variety of modes of life, from the humble cot
tage tare of the peasant, to the luxurious
abode of the wealthy, and have found them
all, kind and hospitable, and glad to have it iu
their power to oblige. Iu fact 1 think Ireland
in a general way sen-is out its very worst char
acters as specimens I mean that class which
frequent our public works and throng our
cities fori assure you they are thought as
little about here as they are in America, and
it is these who bring the very name of Irish
men to he considered a stigma and disgrace.
The general appearance of the country is
not so bare or destitute of timber as I suppos
ed, for there is a great deal plant ! I,
an 1 the lots ,ara enclosed by hedge3 which
give the face of the country quite a woody
appearance.
Tiic buildings are principally of stone and
in the country one storv m heirrht, witn
thatched roots, and some of thorn whitewashed
or pebbledashed. In tile towns the' are two
storis high genoraliy. and slated. The cities
on tins side the water do not look near so neat
as our Anieric n cities. There is an absence of
the cruaiueiit.il, in the dw elling houses, and
they have an antiquated look, although there
are some line specimens of architecture in
the public buildings. The hotels are conduct
ed vcrv dilTerentlv from ours no public table;
but each one calls forwh.it be wants and pays
for what he gets then lucre is an everlasting
paying of servants, drivers on coaches, &e.,
which is an intolerable bore; lor "here they
have no other moans of compensation.
Another novel feature to us is the Police
who are stitioned ill through the country,
some of them to collect the revenues and oth
ers to preserve order, keep the pigs oft the
road, and the Irishmen from killing each eth
er but tiicv nave to pav we:i lor the care ta
ken of them, in the shape of taxes. The po
lice are uniformed ami armed. Their uniform
is dark green or black pants, roundabout,
and small cap, and they wear a belt always
containing a bayonet when on service and of
ten carry a musket. 1 icy are in every town
and village, and you can nanny taue a waiic
without mtctinj them on the road.
Tho Tiriii.iiilt T ni:iv sov in fact, the onlv
fuel is the peat or tuff, which is cut in the
bogs or marshes. There are vast tracts of these
boss ; in some places miles in exic-nt, w men
are unfit lor anything else, and what is singu
lar, they are often on the highest land
and sometimes on the tops of the highest
mountains.
They arc destitute of shrubbery, except a
low busn about knee high, which is brow n at
tni season the year. There are very few
of our forrest trees here, and the birds are
nearly all ol a dnTbreut succies.
Another peculiarity of Ibis country is the
Fairs, which are held monthly, in every town
and village, where the people bring their cat
tle and stock ot all kinds, to dispose oil, ana
which I found a novel siht.
The roads are crowded early in the morning
with persons of all descriptions, thronging to
them; some m side-cars, (a kind oi vehicle on
two wheels and seats on each side,) some ri
ding donkeys, others driving them in wit a
loads, larger than tne animals, slung on eacn
side of them, in a kind c large baskets, called
Creels; some driving a pig with a hay rope on its
leg, and others without a rope or anytliingelse
on their own. In fact they present to a stran
ger rather a ludicrous appearance.
But I have not time, space or ability to por
tray all the peculiarities that I witnessed, and
you must wait until I return, when I will have
a better opportunity, if not ability!
We had a very fine passage over here, after
we go! started. I did not stop in Liverpool, ana,
after spending a couple of weeks in the West
and North of Ireland, I returned to this place,
near the centre, w here I found a number of rela
tiouswho had never expected to see me.
The seige of Sevastopol is still progressing,
at last accounts, but it is not yet taken though
it has stoud the cannonade of 100 cannon over
a fortnight. The loss of life on both sides is
dreadful". In one town, it is said, the streets
are covered with dead bodies lying unburied,
and that thev causimr a pestilence.
You of course have heard of the battle of
Alma, in which tho allied. English and French,
armies were succesfnl against the Russians,
though it was dcaily bought.
I have been looking iu vain for aleftcrfrom
America, since I have been here, but is seems
you have all forgotten me bowever, I will
still forgive, and not forget
' l!o:nc again ! hme nznin. from a foreign shore.
Aud ah 'twill lill my heart with joy to meet my
frieu'ls or.ee more."
Sincerely yottr friend,
