IRISH REMIrTASCES FROM AMERICA. III the \
emigration drain from Ireland to the United
states is being gradually oiminishea. az no
doubt it is, the influx into Ireland of American
money, earned by Irish hands. ia steadily en-
the increase. j ust tske7a few figures in illu,s-r
tration of this statement. The nurnhere who
left Ireland for all parts of the Sta,es, British
america, and Australia, in the year 1858, was
sl92,6 ,6u9; whereas the number who left Ireland
~ the year 1854. did not exceed 10 ,2G9. or
these Ill .O95 emigrated to the United Ssatss,
~ sOs to British America, and 10 ,2G2 to Aus
trstia; In 1858 the amount Of money sent
home by Irish remigrants to their relatives in
Ireland, for payment of passages as we'll IS for
various other purposes, was 81 .d39 COO; but in
1904 that amount, vast and wonderful as it was,
was lar exceeded, it having reached to Ell ,530
ooo, or nearly 9300 GOO over that of the previ-
GUS year. In the hisrdry:of the world there is
nothing like this amazing proof of the strength
family attachment which has ever rdissfnguished
and adorned the calumniated Irish race

srRIruALrsM AT BufpALo- The Buffalo Re-
public has given another instalment Of the
g circle experiences Of tic editor. Here is
the best story the article affords:
On the afternoon Of the 'sth instant circle
of eight or ten, including two or three ladies,
aoahi in tir.kr y
the table, and the spirits were demonstrating
their ability to- touch and handle different.in-
dividaals One of the, ladies present had
brought her little boy, aged about three years,
who was asleep on lounge about ten feet from
the table While thus engaged, with the hands
OF every person present laid upon q t..ble, round
which sn were seated except the child before
mentioned, with sufficient light to distinguish
clearly every objec0jn the room, the mother re-
ceived sudden shock, which turned her chair
partially around, so that she sat facing her
clfiid. In an instant, and before any person
had risen from their seats, she exclaimed,
Z" Why, my child is in my arns!p and sure
etly sleeping in it's mothers arms, us unais-
turbed as when lying not q moment before upon
the settee, in which condition it remained until
awakened sometime afterwards.
Every person in the room is willing to swear
that no one arose or made any movement likely
to lead to such result-that the lady herself
did not leave the table and that the child did
not arise and go to its mother-that, in fact, it
was sleeping upon the lounge at the very instant
before the lady received the shock The lady
herself had no expectation of such result,
and was perhaps more astonished (hesides being
considerably frightened) than any person in the
room. She states that the only thing she saw
was a slight shadow passing like . fash Of
light across the room, and the child was re-
posing in her arms! 7t

was endeavoriDg to convince Hose Company No.
