ANOTHER SHORT PAssAGE--The bark Wakul.
la, Capt. Milford, arrived yesterday from Gal.
way, Ireland, after a passage of eighteen days
This is equal to steam. We are indebted to
Capt M. for the Dublin Register of the LIST
inst.
We believe that Capt Milford is in the habit
of making short passages He has made seve-
raj voyages with Capt. Bailey, now of the
Yorkshire, and once astonished the captain of
another bark while making passage to Cadiz.
Now he leaves Galway, Ireland, and trips over
the Atlantic in two weeks, four days, and one
hour.
If our captains can get this.speed out of sailing
vessels, what will they not do with steamships
We shall see after the Washington starts.

That continues to increase and the imports probably
be large for some time to come. The increase, how.
ever, may not be great in few weeks from this
The banks In Maine appear to be in state Of expan
sion equal to that Of 1885, We give paragraph rea-
tive to this fact from the Governors message 1t Ia
dated the 10th inst
A short time previous to the expansion in 1885, the
Banks In Maine had circulation of about 81 100000;
during that expansion 1t increased to 600
again to about S0oOOO since that time it has been
increasing and is probably up to the highest point
of 1885, 81 000 II the past throws any light upon
the futu there can be to doubt that the
cuaton must be reduced again to about half its
present amount The chief available means Of our
debtors; and unexpected collection Of 100000
and simultaneous reduction Of the circulating me-
dunn to the same amount be made without prostrating
the business Of the State! gradual reduction might
be made without serious consequences but il it is
delayed, until general expansion throughout the
try shall have highly excited prices and multiplied
tracts it will tend to aggravate upon Maine tho evils

made in the spirit Of aarmist with the view Of

THE FAMINE In IRxLANp.-The following ex-
tract from private letter, written by an eminent
physician in one of the most fertile parts of
Ireland, will show the awful extent to which
the famine has reached in that Inflated land 1t
is dated
GRAvARD, 9th April, l647.
The failure Of the potatoes has been

resident gentry and landlords exertng to

people to be kept alive? There in the district Of

THE PACKET SHIP DUTcHEss D'ORLEANs.-
This packet ship has just been re-coppered, and
as we have heard so much said OF the remarka-
BILE durability of her first copper, we have been
induced to make some inquiries. We find the
ship was coppered on the stocks in June, 1888,
and has made twenty-seven voyages the copper
when taken off, was allowed to be about half
worn, with the exception of around the bows,
where the chain cables had torn some off; her
seams and butts were not the least strained, and
as dry as when they were first caulked, which
proves that the copper must not only have been
of good quality, but put on with great care.
We may add something further, equally strange;
the quarter-boards and even the monkey rails,
which are very light affair, remain the same as
when they were first put on-not an inch has
ever had occasion to be replaced. We should
say this speaks very plainly of her qualities q
sea boat. This is one of Mr.. Webb's ships, and
if we are not mistaken, his first essay.

Among the passengers in the Norma was Herr

Freights were dull. There were plenty of
vessels unengaged.
The rains having commenced, the planters
were expecting short crop to what they had
previously expected.
The roads were in bad state sugars were
consequently getting scarce. They were adj
