America on this occasion, holds up aircsh TO

struggles. we present it, especially this day,
to tho wstiul gaze of convulSed and distrac-

be kindred spirits over the sen, III on whom
the example may impress itself, till they shall
be inllamcd with noble rage to follow it E?
Shall we not call upon them 10 return from
Il vain reliance upon their old idols. and to

Roland Hughes, Col. 10. Davis, Gen. J.
b. Clark, John Harvey, Clark II. Green, A.

FAMINE IN THE WEST OF IRELAND

FAMINE IN THE WEST OF IRELAND-In
letter addressed to the Rev. Geo. c.
Moore, written by friend in the county
of Sligo, on the 4th of Jan. last, the follow.
ing fearful and heart sickening picture is
drawn:
at is a most mercful part that the good peo.
pie OF the United States are taking for the poor
Of this district. The people Of this part OF the
country are really worse off than they were this
time twelve months ago. Then there were large
sums Of money collected for them, and food
purchased and distributed; but now nothing is
done for them. The poor houses are filled to
suocaton, and thousands Of creatures, hall naked,
are running about, having nothing to eat but rap
turnips, which they steal from the fields! The
very worst apprehensons may be conceived as
the consequences Of such food. We may we'll
expect another season OF fever and dysentery,
and swelled limbs! humbly pray that the Lord
may crown your efforts to save the poor Of this
district, with signal success. Your mission there
ITO America) was truly charitable one, and
your calls have been mos. nobly responded TO"

the nomination of Mr.. Clay as the Wing
candidate for the next Presidency, says:--
"Mr. Clay has personally DESIRED and
expected to pithdra,o from the canrass, and
only deferred hisresolution to dose, because
many eminent and able Wings at Washing.
ton demonstrated against it, urging that his
withdrawal would be fraught with peril to
the Wing cause in the swiftly approaching
election. Whenever it shall appear that
the Wing party can dispense with the use
of Mr.. Clay's name, Gas we trust it will not
appear in ls4s) he will very gladly with.
draw Peremptoriy from public life and its
aspirations"

DIRECT TAXATION AND INDEFINITE Ex-
TENsIoN.-At great Democratic pow. ,0o,o,
held in Tammany Hall, Now York, ex,
President, and also er. General, Sam Hous-
ton, of Texas, was the principal orator.
Amongst set of resolutions, approving the
Administration and every thing it has
done, we observe the following. which are
worthy of note:
Resolved, That we do not intend to pledge
ourselves TO barren support ofthe Government,
or TO limit that supper! to empty words; that in
our judgement, Congress should give the admins
tration such supplies Of men and money as the
crisis shall require and that those who are afraid
10 impose such taxes as are necessary to main
tain the credit Of the government, Judge NEARLY
OF the patriotism and sense Of American people.
Resolpsd, That the indefinite extension OF our
territory, and the spread OF our free institutions
has nothing in it alarming in our minds-that
the mechanical improvements Of the present age
greatly more than counterbalance the inconveni
ences Of increased area. and that our constitution
rightly understood and rightly expounded, is able
safely to embrace under its gigantic shelter, all
The millions that can be nourished between the
Atlantic and Pacific seas.

TELEGRAPH-We invite the attention of
the reader 10 the proposition of Mr.. o.
Reilly, on the subject of the st. Louis and
Fort I.eavenworth Telegraph, on the frs,
page of to-day's paper.
Mr.. Swearingen, the agent, when he
passed through here, left with US history
of the controversy between Messrs. Amos
Kendall and F. o. J. Smith, and O'Reilly-
statement of which will not be interest.
ing to our readers, as we consider the only
thing necessary for our citizens TO decide
upon is. whether or not, if the proposed
line shall be constructed, they will make an
effort to have it pass through our county
and town! The citizens of Lexington,
Liberty, and other places, are agilating the
subject in manner which induces the be.
lief that stock will be taken to consider
able exlent--and if their efforts are sus-
tanned, by other towns the whole amour,
will very easily be raised
There is one branch Of the subject on
which there is general mistake, viz: the
cost Of keeping up station. IF the stock
shall be taken, the contractor hands over
the line, ready for operations, to the
northumberland the cost of station,
per annum, instead of amounting TO from
twelve to eighteen hundred dollars, will not
exceed fue hundred.
The question then to determine is, will
the citizens Of this place-or any other de-
string a station-transact sufficient business
through the Telegraph Office to defray
this expense, and yield a dividend on the
capital If so, they should take hold of
the subject without delay.

For the Boon's Lick Times.

Messrs. Editors:
That "God takes care Of those who take care
OF themselves" as we'll as III you want any
thing done send, il you went it done right go
YOURSELF" are expressions too selfevdent 10
need any proof, you will undoubtedly edmit.-
Let US apply these "old sayings"
We have fair farming country and almost any
quantity and variety of the produce Of The soil,
in reason, can be grown upon it, yet you have no
idea Of the carelessness, indifference and waste
that frequently inie,lopes, often perverling the
perseverance OF labor and industry TO maturity,
much to the prevention OF success and loss Of
product. For instance:
A farmer raises fine crop OF Tobacco. He
has bestowed much labor upon it, from the burns
ing Of the plant bed in the spring, through the
various stages of its growth put his ground, with
great care, in fine order, for the reception Of the
housekeeping his field clean; but at ,oorm,
time suffers the plants to be literally used up by
that destructive vermin. Perhaps he attends
strictly to his business at this stage Of the game,
and carries on his work with industry and judg-
ment until it is ready to cut, but when the knife
should be applied he is busy about something
else and by his negligence. permits single fros.
~ night to destroy the work OF the season. He
may, in fact do all as it should be, and in season,
bu, afterwards, permit his Tobacco to be nearly
or quite ruined by leaving it ont doors upon the
scafolds exposed to the rain and sun. until all its
good qualities are scattered TO the four winds o.
heaven.
have taken the article Of Tobacco merely tc
elucidate the subject. Hemp is often as careless
y handled, by its grower, and even permitted tc
be walked orer, by men and boys, when spread
for rotting, thus breaking the lint, wherever
trodden upon before rottng. Corn shocks are
so put up as to be blown down. Oats, wheat
barley and rye, are frequently left in the hand
shock until the grain has been shattered out BY
the weather, or it has contracted mould.
All this is The result Of sheer carelessness Of
negligence. To succeed at any business it mus
be strictly attended 10 al all times. The neglec
Of day may sometimes blast the prospects Of {
year. have been surprised, in riding through
the country, to see the instances OF carelessnes
so numerous, and the hope Of waking up this sor
OF farmers, alone, has induced me 10 expose thes,
facts. AGRlCOLUS.
