IRISH RECRUITING.

A cerreenondent 'writes as follows to a London coterie-
porary :—There is at e quality which the writers fir the
Times pos-ess in common with Mr. Tupper —marina coin-
yonere par vie Eviebam —they believe most thoroughly in
themselves. No matter what wise and reflecting people
may think to the contrary, the faith of these gentlemen
in their own infallibility is boundless
‘ited unalterable.
They do not condescend to consider whether the doctrines
they propound, or the opinions they offer, for the en-
tement and directicn of the public mind are based
•ni•.ton truth and justice, but in their own dashing off-hand
way pronounce their dicta, taking special care, however,
that their superlative dogmatism shall suit the popular
taste of the day, be it gent, lead, or indifferent. One of
these gentleman, with charecteristic modesty, called upon
the gentry of this country, a few days since, to carry into
effect a recent order from the Horse pasrds k promote
the enlistment of soldiers for her Majesty's service. We
'should take no exception to that appeal, if it were merely
addressed to English gentlemen though we think it was
impellous.
We have a strong conviction that an order, issued by
the 'Queen's cousin, and the Commander-in-Chief of her
Majesty's army. does not require to be backed by a leader
in any journal for the purpose of rendering it effective,
-and that: of their °A n free motion "the gentlemen of
England" in this moment of peril will give Their best
gblstance to procure soldiers for the necessary work
that is to be done We should not. we repeat, tak 3 the
slightest excerion to the manifesto issued from
Printing-house-square in support of the Eorse Guards
order, were it confined to this country; but when the
writer mates a similar ap.peal to "the Protestantestir gentry
of Irelene," we cannot refrain front enggg that
he must be wholly ignorant of the feelings of the
great body of tat reputation, from whose ranks Irish
'recruits are generally obtained, when he assumes that the
Irish Proteetenegentry would prove useful auxiliaries in
the recruiting department. We venture to assert that a
parish priest in the east, west, south. and portions of the
north—or a Presbyterian clergyman in other portions of
the north of Irelani—could, if they choase, bring more
recruits to the Queen's standard in re week than could be
obtained through the instumentality of the whole Protes-
tant gentry of that country in &twelvemonth. The fact is,
that the Irish peasantry are more ready to lead the gentry
-into the paths of war than to be Jed into them by the
gentry. To exempt y the truth of this; a-sertion, we may
refer to what recurred last week at Tipp rary. The Tip-
perary Artillery held a meeting, and unanimously resolved
tievolneteer for service in India. They communicated
that resolution to their officers, some only of weom can be
called " Protestant gentry," and the officers, after
consultation, agreed to follow the course which their
-seen proposed for their adoption. The officers
did not take the inhiative ; Their men were the
leaders in this patriotic movement, and all the officers did
was merely to give their assent to what the men proposed.
Soldiering has ever been popular with the Irish peasant,
not because it was recommended by " the Protestant
gentry," with whom he has often been at vari,ince, and
against whom he has occasionally directed his belligerent
energies, but because he liked it. The love of martial
fame has a stronghold upon his excitable and imaginvive
mind, as niay be seen by some of the street ballads. Lord
'Macaulay quotes, if we mistake not, this description of
literature for the purpose of indicating the tendencies and
feelings of the English people at particular epochs in their
history, and in like manner we may conclude that when
that poetical old lady, Shan-van- vogh, is made to pro-
el aim

That on the field of Waterloo,
Duke of Wellington would look blue,

If Paddy wain'tthLre too
the writer, or scribbler of these lines knew quite wall what
would come h-me to the hearts of his c untrymen.
Having said so much about the natural pugnacity of the
Irish peasant, we have only further to add for the informa-
tion of that particular gentleman who wrote the article in
the Tim's—the public at large being, we assume, aware
of the fact, and no other person being so uninformed on
that matter as the gentlerr an himself —that the
aid he invokes will, in all' probability, if accorded,
render recruiting throughout the greater part of Ireland
unpopular. Transform the Irish Protestant gentry into
recruiting officers, and the result will be that the Irish
Cetho is peasant will suspect that they seek to entrap
him for some evil purpose, and, to use a common expres-
sion of his own, "he won't list." Whether it be true or
not, as alleged by the song writer, that the complexion of
the great captain retained its natural hue on the occasion
referred to, in consequence of the presence of Paddy on the
battle-field, this at all events is co rain, that Paddy was
not brought to Waterloo by the aid of the Irish Protestant
gentry, or to the Crimea either ; and if the Government
wish to have him in India, they will most earnestly be-
seech the Irish Protestant gantry to refrain from meddling
in the matter.
The Times, it should be renta'ked, displays its-usual
inconsistenc7 in making this appeal to the Protestant
gentry cf Treland, because it has proclaimed over and over
again, and strange as it may appear, with perfect truth and
accuracy, that the Irish Protestant gentry, as a class, have
no influence. We do not intend to denounce those gentle
men, as the Times has done when it answered its purpose;
but when that journal now attempts to enlist their
services where their interference may prove injurious to
the best interests of the British empire, we cannot with-
hold the expression of our conviction that such interference
on their part may, instead of adding to the streng,h of our
army, keep many a pugnacious PacUy from the royal
standard —Morning Star.

Since the recent arrival of the large number of recruits
for the various East ludian depots at Chetham garrison
cossiderable met ions have been made by the authorities
at the Provisional Battalion to have the whole of them
instructed in the use sf the Enfield rifle, orders having
been given that every man before pronounced fit for em-
loareation for India must have undergone a course of
instruction in that weapon.
The greatest activity prevails in the Royal Labaratory
Department, Woolwich, in preparing', the elongated plug-
ged bullet for the East India Cimpany's service. Ooe
million of these newly invented bullets were forwarded
from Woolwich to the docks for transport to Bengal ; and
two millions of the same species, packed in cases contain-
ing 2 000 each, were yesterday shipped for Bombay,
together with shot, shell, and ammunition, for the troops

Mr. Duffy, ex-Minister for Wocds and Fores's in the
Neleourne Government, is likely to find his level even at
the Antipodes. By that excellent jiurnal, the Argus, we
.find that he and Mr. Shannessy, irritated by the oefeat of
their Csbiatt, employ themselves in obstructing the course
of legislation by long speeches, motions for arljeurnment,
.&c, and upon one occasion till kept the house sitting,
with little intermission, for twenty hours. The Argus de
scribes Mr. Duffy as " petulant, urjest, offensive, egotisti-
cal, almost every thing that can make a public man
offensive and contemptible." Alas ! for the Young
Ireland chieftain—their prophet and their guide.—Carlow

THE ROYAL BR TV,II BANK.—As regards the present
Position of matters in the Royal British Bank, it is under•
stood that all requisite exertions are being used in carrying
out amieabie conferences with the utfortutate shareholders
in pr..ference to resorting to vexatious and ruinous litiga-
tion. A vast amount of intercommunicatim and corres-
pondence is going on between them, end the official
manager of the Court of Cilancery, Mr. Palmer Harding,
relative to the amount they can contribute towards
defrayin: the liabilLies-of the bank, and is many cases the
assistance of friends has been sought to enable them to
mke some kind of contribution. These compromises are
being carried out under the immediate direction of the
Vice-chancellor Sir T. Kinderslev. The liability of those
shareholders who cork shares after the surpleisental
charte, was obtained, being supposed to be governed by
the decision of the court in Brockwell's case, which in
effect relieves nearlyigne half of the responsible sharehol-
,ders, and appears toTive them the right to claim their
money back again, will, it is understood to be taken on
,appeal ta the House of Lords by the other half of the
shareholders. It is manifestly of importance that the law
.asf latch a state cf things shculd be formally settled, sincq,
under the present decision, it is in the power of sharehol-
ders who miry have received dividends on their shares to
say they were induced by fraud to take those shares, and
if so, many shareholders in other abortive companies will be
able, while receivin dividends, to repudiate their liabili-
ties to contribute to the lessee. Although under the act
passed last SC.SSi6II. wtich gave sharchelders abroad the
liberty to return and enter into compromise, it is sated
that a large number of the shareholders are unwilling to
avail themselves of it, and it is regarded as altogether
doubtful whether any very large amount will be obtained
from them to satisfy the creditors, who, under the barl!x..
"Incr. have received B'. in the pound, and who, it is
+expected, will receive about is. more.
