EMIGRATION PROM CoRK.-Hundreds of com
Portable looking farmers, of young women and
men, all decentiy clad continue to arrive daily
with the view of emigrating to America. In
such numbers do they come, that the rapidity
with which the bakers shops in the vicinity o.
the quays are cleared of bread, is scarcely cred
ible. A few vessels have sailed for New York
and Boston with emigrants; others are ready fG
follow, and ten more are preparing for the same
destination. Among those that have start
start, are the Mary T. Rundlett, for New York.
115 passengers; Conte Potoski ditto, "A ditto;
Henry Patterson, ditto. SO ditto; st. Lawrence
ditto, l01 dit; Isabella, ditto, Al ditto; Globe
for Boston, III ditto; and the Ovando, ditto,
12l ditto.
From this it will be seen that while five yes
sells are bound for New York, there are only
two for Boston, and the proportion of passen-
gers is as two to three; in other words, while
vessels convey only 389 emigrarts toNew York
two vessels convey 289 to Boston. A curious
fact connected with the desire to emigrate is
the large quantities of potatoes that some OF
these emigrats have taken with them. AT
present good sound seed potatoes sell in Cork
at rs sd the weight of 81 lbs. The potatoes
which the emigrants are taking off would readi-
ly bring Is. Cd. in the market-one penny per
pound.
Notwithstanding this excessive e,and that
Indian meal, as food, is considerably cheaper
and more portable, the preference is given to
the potato. In four vessels no fewer than 365
cwts have beer taken. In the st. Lawrence
there were 1922 lbs; Globe 1850 lbs; Isabella
2l0 lbs; and Ovando 1859 lbs.-totaI, 7O44lbs
potatoes. This article of food is not of course
that supplied by the passage brokers, but the
private store of the passengers for consumption
on the voyage.-Constitution

MYowN DEARNATIvE LAND.

BIZ SAMUEL d. PATTERSON.
I've wandered far in distant land,
Beyond old oceans wave,
And stranger hearts and kindly hands
A generous welcome gave:
I've stood among the high and great,
In MANY lofty hall,
Where titled wealth and glittering state
Held joyous carnival
But kind and generous and warm
As were the hearts i met,
Their welcome had no power lie charm,
Or lure me TO forget
NY own loved land. The memory came,
In bower or stately dome,
Across my soul, with magic gleam,
OF my dear native home.
What though its fields are wild and rude
Its mountains rough and high
And tempest-hoods, in angry mood,
And turbulent, rush by?
Ii is the land Of free-born men,
Who spurn Oppression's thrall,
And every mountain pass and glen
Echo to Freedoms cS1l.
To tvrant foe shall ever wave
His conqucring sceptre here:
The heritage our fathers gave,
Their offspring will hold dear.
With high resolve, and faith sincere,
A patriot host they stand,
To guard the fame, unstain'd and clear,
OF our loved native land.-Ladics' Book.
