This English balance sheet may well be taken to

ton that grows up in intelligence industry and free
dom. Where men are permitted full scope for their
industry and safe enjoyment OF its fruits national
wealth is sure to accumulate, and national spirit and
power to increase. On the other hand, where men
are sorfs and in ignorance we see them made the ig
norant tools of Irresponsible despotism In place of
winning wealth, intelligence, and independence for
themselves, demands for their obedience and appeals
to their anaticsm to be only oreruuners of
the outpour of evil passions, the shedding of blood,
become the objects of that inqatiable greed which
impels tyrants to the ruin of others-and (happily)
oftentimes to the ruin of themselves also.

the last Australian mail destined for Ireland, and
which reached the Dublin Post Office yesterday, was
quite monster in bulk. 1t required for sorting
and distributing thirty two extra pair OF hands, aud
the carriers were not despatched on their sesera
A golden harvest in the shape of remittances may
be expected by this arrival and no doubt the flight
from Ireland" will be further accelerated without
waiting for the completion ofthe coming harvest sea

feature connected with this extraordinary running,
is the fact that she has made the last two passages

This contrasted with frigate's crew. is, indeed,
almost surprising.
