Royalty and Rags.

Queen Victoria has gone to make morning call on her poor sisther," Ireland.
 This movement aPpsars to have been suggested in order to try he effect of the personal presence of their mistress upon the patriots of that unfor- tunats and much abused country Iii an attempt to win the admiration of the Irish by the splendid payeantry of the royal cortege, to them into submission by an exhibition of the might of maies- ,y. This is old trick of monarchicaI ministers, but in tine present. instance it has been delayed long. The people have bad time ts reaeet and as- certain the causes of their misery, and though the "plaee hantisg patriots and upssart corporateFs" may get up brilliant lIuminations and shoat loudly at the approach of their sovereign, with the hope of being rewarded with an arristocralic title CT some office of profit. the people of Ireland are net 10 be so easily hsmbagged. They know shs, the visit of the Queen will neither pat bread into the mouths of sheis famishiHg children nor relieve them from the burdens of tyranny. Their cry will be, "givs us back Joan Mitchell;" send homo osr patriots, and grant us the repeal.
