The Exile's Adieu to his Native Land.
BY PHEBE ANN WOOD.

! BY PHEBE ANN WOOD
Farewell to thee Erin. thou beautiful isle tpassed,
Where the hours of my childhood so gladly were
As sail on the ocean, I'm thinking the while,
OF the hours far too happy, dear Erin, to last
Tn sadness seek me a home far away,
In sadness leave thee. dear land of my birth,
! Thy shamrock so green. and thy meadows so gay.
Thou loveliest spot on this beautiful earth.
part with the country my childhood has known
The hearts of companions so noble and true
III ne'er find land that's so dear as my own,
For home among strangers, sweet Erin, adieu
The beautiful daisy that covers the plain,
The place where my fathers so quietly rest,
I've bid them adieu, I'll ne'er see them again
Ill make me home in the far distant West.
But oh when far off in the land of the free,
When Columbia star shines bright on my home
I'll ne'er find spot that's so lovely to me,
In memory I'll see thee wherever l roam.
Farewell then dear Erin, It's sadly part II knew
From home that's SO lovely, from friends thai
Thourt always receiving this wish of the heart,
May Liberty bless thee dear Erin, adieu.

waters, the sunken lots and the dirty CUTTERS the
taxpayers must do it for themselves.
We understand that since the publication Of
Tuesdays article, the Street Inspector has, very
properly, stirred himself in the Twenty second
ward in most lively manner. 1t is hoped that
the piles Of dirt heaped up by the sweepers in
that quarter will have been removed ere this, or
the sweeping will have been useless. At the
gable end Of 267, in Forty-third street, there re-
mains still a most abominable nuisance, which
should be attended to. We are informed that
large holes in Forty-second street, corner of
Ninth avenue, require to be filled up being com
mon receptacles for stagnant water. Between
the Fourth avenue and the East river,
above Twenty third street, there are many
spots which might as well be put in order.
Our authorities must go and look at these
places for themselves. 1t is a scandal that
nothing can be done with some Of these worthless,
as with some police officers, unless you go and do
their work for them. If complaint is made
hey require the complainant to become evidence

1t is matter well worthy Of consideration,
whether the Offices Of City Inspector and Health
Wardens, twenty-five in number, should not be
filed by medical men, The public health is the
public safety, and how can those men be trusted
as its guardians who not only cannot learn, even
by following their own noses where nusances
exist, or when found, do not know how to abate
them. A correspondent would like some Of
these officials to tell him what constitutes a
healthy atmosphere? When is a house properly
ventilated? How is air affected by large masses
Of people, and why? Why has personal and
general cleanliness decided effect on the public
health? How do diseased meat and decaying We
getables produce disease? We understand that
these questions would puzzle some of the incum-
bents considerably. In the meantime we insist
upon it that the citizens should unite as one man,
in requiring our sanitary laws to be fully and
faithfully carried out.

ITALIAN AFFAIRs.-The debate in the British
Parliament on Italian affairs. which we published
yesterday, has doubtless been very generally read
as il affords the only linking We possess of the
designs and attitude Of the great Powers on the
Italian question. IL seems that Austria and
France have both expressed wish to withdraw
their troops from Italy as soon a. they can with
safety. France and England have also applied
10 the King Of Naples, demanding that his Ma
jesty provide some security for persons and pro-
perry in his dominions: but, according to the
Earl Of Clarendon. the Kings reply has been
" most unsatisfactory No doubt King Bomba
has insisted his right to imprison his subjects
and seize their property as often as be chooses
The Parliamentary opposition. by the mouth
Of their spokesman. Mr.. DiTaeli have availed
themselves Of the obvious opportunity to twt
the government with their alliance with the En-
peror Of the French. Mr. DiTaeli exposes with
some effect the absurdity Of talking about enforc-
ing the execution Of Italy, when Englands great
ally and coadjutor is the chief invader Of Italy
and the actual occupant Of Rome; and further
sneers at the talk about Wrestling liberty Of the
press from Austria when. as the conferences
showed, the greatest enemy the press had in n
rope is the Emperor Napoleon. But all this n
mere oratory. The point Of the affair is that
Louis Napoleon and the British government are
committed 10 a line Of interference in Italy.
Where that interference must tend ii IL not
very difficult TO zee. As the British statesmen
very properly remarked. the establishment Of red
republican governments in the States Of italy
would only render fresh in,erventions a necessity:
and as between the other forms Of government
and revival Of Muratism, there can be very
little doubt that the last would be the bst Louis
Napoleon will not be the man to announce this
truth. That duty he will leave to his ally. the
