PROFIT AND Loss VIEW OF REPEAL.--The
London Times has very fierce article on
Ireland and the Repeal question, from which
we extract the following:
ENGLAND could afford 10 lose Ireland
Such loss might, indeed, involve an imme-
date and temporary dana &c to her prestige
Foreign nations might misunderstood our
purpose and predi cament. But we know
and feel that our national loss-the sum TO-
tai ofloss sustained by England would be
NOTHING. We should part with the sore
and gangrened part Of the empire. The
empire itself would survive sound and whole
But Ireland herself, how would she fare?-
Barred forevermore from all share, title, and
interest TO and in every element OF British
greatness, every source of British affluence,
aud every symbol of British sovereignty, on
her would fall the curse OF feeding in inter-
necine struggle of domestic faction, bleed
ing beneath the continuous wound of agrari-
all outrage.
The overplus of her poor-high born or
DIV born, of Saxon or Celtic blood-would
be absorbed back into the muddy and iurbu-
lent whirlp iol of conflicting but long de-
sired Provincialsm She would shrink al
once into hersell,-a petty island, torn by

not venal because there was none 10 buy

WING SONG FOR THE CAMPAIGN OF '4s.
A1-'Old Dan Tucker"
By A LADY,.

Ye Wings who won for Harrison,
And ye who bravely fought for Clay,
Arrange your forces and unite,
For him who conquered Monterey
Ifyour hearts are firm, and aims are steady,
You'll win the fight for Rough and Ready
If your hearts are firm, and aims are steady,
You'll win the fight for Rough and Ready"
See where. on Palo Altos heights.
The Hero brave undaunted stands,
For good. our country's Stars and Stripes,
Were trusted to his faithful hands
lie won that field-his arm was steady,
Twill always be--with Rough and Ready.
He won that field his arm was steady,
Twill always be--wth Trough and Ready q
And when, beaeath the towering palms.
Fearless again he pitched his tent,
The Mexicans with flashing arms,
Came-All their thoughts on vengeance bent
Again he won-his aim was steady,
That all should yield e"Rough and Ready
And on that scene of bright "look out"
With faireSt prospect toward the sea,
Who caused to ascend that thrilling shout,
But the bravest brave, Old Zachary9
His heart was firm--his arm was steady,
Nothing could daunt old Trough and Ready
Then trust him with the Ship of State,
He'll ever have it's good in view,
And though dark perlls may await,
Will bring it safe to harbor too.
Support him well-old Rough and Ready
Be true ye Whigs-be firm and steady.

HENRY M. SHREvE.-THoMAsM 'NA1R.-The
Louisville Courier, in giving biograph re-
miniscenes Of men distinguished for their in
fuence on the early business of the West, re-
fers to the enterprizing character and services
of Henry Shreve, of late engaged as Govern
ment ag-puller, on the Lower Mississippi
and some of its branches. Among other things
we notice the following:
'In 1910, he opened a new business. He
determined to enter into competition with
British traders. among the Indians, for lead and
turs, On the I'd of May, 1910, he left st. Lou
Is TOR Fever river. in a new barge of thirty-fiye
tons burthen, manned by twelve men, and
loaded with an assorted cargo. He was four
teen days IN reaching the spot where Galena
now stands. He traded with the Indians until
the lst of July, and had bought of them sirtu
tons OF Iced, 10 transport which he had to build
fiatboat, and buy Mackinaw boat, and with
this fiat he reached ST. Louis in twelve DAYS.
and thus opened the American lead trade in
the Upper Mississippi. He took his cargo to
New Orleans, and shipped it 10 PhiladeI phia,
realizing 81 900 from his traffic. The trade
thus opened by Captain Shreve, now amounts
TO S3,0OO,000 annually"
we have heard Thomas M'Ncir, formerly
u eHo 4 OttoSc, near lLlS CITY, anu VINO QleQ
near Mineral Point las. spring. relate the par
tlculars of his second trip TO this region of
country. He came up with Mackinaw boat
load OF whisky, which was all disposed of to
the Indians, living near Dubuque, in exchange
for Lead. He said the poor creatures appeared
10 be perfectly crazy for the whisky. As soon
as they landed at the Indian town about mile
below where the present town of Dubuque now
stands, the boat was literally besieged by men
and women, who considered themselves excee-
dinghy fortunate if they could get flask OF
whiskey for hundred or two pounds OF lead.
The lead vas furnished in round flakes of con-
siderable size, and by the time the cargo was
disposed OF, they had a whole cord of il piled
up. This was in the fall of the year. The
lead was left in the care of the head chief. and
the crew went on ur the river some distance
above Prairie du Chem, and during the winter
they cut pine timber, hewed it square, and by
the time the spring opened, they had construct,
ed large raft. Floating it down to Dubuque
they covered it With fakes of lead, and took il
with their raft toS st. Louis. 1t proved profit
able speculation. This was the commence
1nent of the lumber trade of the Upper Missis
sippi.

As, by the vote OF the House of Representa-

TO terminate the present session on the 18th
day Of next month, many of our readers here

lief that Congress would rise on that day, it is
proper to direct their attention to the fact thai
the Senate refused yesterday to take up the
proposition, under circumstances which justify
the apprehension that there is no probability o.
the session being brought to close before the
