IRISH Em1eRArIoN-A late number of the

IRISH ENG RATIoN.-A late number OF the
Limerick Ureland) Examiner, contains most
favorable report of the state of the crops in that
county, and in the same number of the paper
which thus herads the advent of abundance, IL
is announced that the people are flying the coun-
try as though another famine were looming III
the perspective. .
Turn where you will, nothing is talked of
but the United States, American letters, checks
steamboat and ship fares, and preparations OF de-
parture to another and more favored land
CAS- for the penal laws and such other mat
tiers, the discussion of these is confined to the
comparatively small section of the people who
are vet calculating on their ability TO maintain
their position at home But as regards the great
mass of our CONFERENCE.-The working popula-
tion-their minds are engrossed with one Idea,
and that is, the speediest manner in which they
can contrve to remove themselves and families
from that inevitable ruin that appears to be I'M
pending over this hapless land Nothing can
stop or stay this migrating propensity, no rea-
sonng or persuasion, however cogent or plausl-
bic, can for moment change their determlna-
ton to join their friends in the far west. There
is scarcely family among the humble class OF
farmers and cottagers, that has not one or more
representatives in America, and these are con-
stantly sending home remitances to enable the
rest of the family to emigrate. The people are
flying away in large numbers and on the roads
in remote districts you will often meet long mel
ancholy cavacades of these poor people turning
their backs on the land of their birth. In fact
the poor man who has no friends to send him a
remittance, and no means of paying his passage
over, is looked upon as doomed man. Coun.
try ehapels on Sundays are thinly attended, ow.
ing to the death and deserton Of the people
