Recovery of Ireland.

That America has contributed most success
fully to the recovery of Ireland from that at
one time hopeless state Of depression, disor-
ganization, and degradatio which made her
once the curse and the shame OF Englandis
fact that will now admit of no dispute. Ame-
.ica has offered an asylum to her redundant
population, without which, it is more proba-
BILE, her recovery, or any advance towards it,
could never have been effected. During the
last seven years this country has been receiv-
ing the poor Irish at the rate of about 22o,-
900 year. About u million and Aalf of her
population has, during that short period, ,ft und
a home in our hap pier land-of that very pop
ulation which could scarcely find subsistence
of any kind in their own country, and which
was felt as ar incubus, and did indeed con-
stitute canker upon the United Kingdom
We gave them liberty protection, and COM
Portable ivelihood-blessings to which they
had, in great measure, been strangers all
their lives. We afforded them the opportuni-
ty not only of helping themselves, but of as
sisting also their poor relations and friends
whom they had left behind. The amount of
money sent back from this country to Ireland
by her poor emigrants for the assistance OF
their connexions there is one ofthe most stri-
king phenomena which her strange case pre-
sents. 1t is ascertained, through the medium
of Anglo American banking houses, that from
the year lS4S to 1853 the amount has gone
on gradually increasing from about two mil
lions and a half to upwards of eleven mil
lions Of dollars year! A return now before
US makes total OF sfI,35l 900 sterling for
that period; the amount for the last year alone
of the return being Gl,4O4,oOO sterling, or
upwards OF seven millions of dollars. Thus,
in five years, have these poor people been
able to save out Of their earnings ana send
back to the old country about twenty-one
millions and three quarters of dollars. A
calculation has been made that, suppOsing
these SUNS to have been sent over by the
emigrants of six months or twelve months
| previous dates, it amounts to about twenty
dollars transmitted by each emgrant-a sum
quite sutiicie Mt. with that which is known to
be transmitted by private hands, to defray the
whole cost of emigration; SO that America,
not Ireland, practically pays the expenses OF
| Irish emigration to the United States. Thus,
in a two-fold degree, are we aiding in the re-
covery of Ireland from the sad condition into
which she had sunk.
Not that we would join in the indscrimi-
nate clamor against England, as the oppres-
sor and degrader of Ireland. England, it lie
true, has in forme, times, by no means been
faultless in her conduct towards Ireland
Still there were great allowances to be made
and many provocatiens to be considered

enemies Of Ireland. We know from our owl
experience of them in this country how diff
cult it is to keep them in order, even wheI

Rufus Choate.

The following has been set afoat by some
body--a near relative Of Davy Crockett, per-
haps.
Rufus Choate is picture to look at, and
crowder to spout. He is about seven feet six
or six feet seven in his socks; supple as an
eel, and wiry as corkscrew. His face is
compound OF wrinkles, ''yaller janders" and
jurisprudence. He has small, keen, piercing
black eyes, and head shaped like NAM
moth goose egg, big end up, his hair black
and curly, much resembling bag of wool in
admirable disorder" or brush heap in
gale of wind. His body has no particular
shape, and his wit and legal "dodges" have
set many judge in snicker, and so con-
founded jurors as to make it almost impossi-
bic fol them to speak plain English, or tell
the truth for the rest OF Their natural live
Rufus is great on twisting himself, squirm-
ing himself around, and prancing, jumping
and kicking up the dust when steam's up
His oratory is first rate, and his arguments
ingenious and fo-cibe. He generally makes
"ten strike"-judge and jury down at the
end OF every sentence. He is great on flow
cry expressions and highfautin "hubbubs." !"
Strangers mostly think he is crazy, and the
rest scarcely understand what he is about
He invoices his time and eocution four thou
sand per cent. over ordinary charges for hav-
ing ones self put through course of law.
Rufus Choate is about fifty years Of age,
ptrhaps over. He is considered the abest
lawyer in New England, or perhaps in the
United States. His hand writing can't be
dee phered without the aid of a pair o! com
passes and aquadrant. His autograph some
what resembles the map of Ohio aud looks
like piece of crayon sketchng, done in the
dark with three. pronged fork. He has
been in the Senate, and may be, if he has
