most extraordinary circumstance has been made

course astonished Remington Common contains

It is the same with IRELAND The Lhndon papers
will not state the truth with regard TO the real condition
Of Ireland The pketrade, they say, is at end The
soldiers do not iraternzo with the people money Is
not drawn from the Savings Banks the majority are
against Mitchell and the Confederatcs. such Is their

Other parties he said were alarmed for their property
and were either concealns II or sending IL TO England.
With regard TO the pike trade he said that everybody

employed twenty men daily, and they were making
pixies day and night Hyland turns ont from 600 70

the real condition OF England and Ireland and receive
my information from private bat trustworthy sources
The London journals have made great many mis-
statements lately and il has been proved, at the re
ques, OF the trembling Government.
