Rising STAR OF IREIAND-In consequence of the
enranchisement estates in Ireland by the operation Of
the act providing for the removal of encumbrances upon
them the introduction of greater variety in crops and
other measures that kingdom has risen to good degree
of prosperity The rise of wages has been further pro-
NOTED by the excessive emigration of its aborng popu-
ation for several years to this and other countries
better husbandry has from these succeeded the
negligent and superficial culture of former times, and
agricultural implements being brought into use still
further to aid on the good work. Nor can it be doub-
ted that the establishments of Galway for the port whence
line of dozen steamers will depart to various quart
ers of the globe and to which they will return will cause
it to expand to the dimensions and Opuence of great
city. This circumstance, together with the growing
business of Southampton large maritime port, may
perhaps impede the hitherto rapid increase of Liverpool
situated between the two rising cities but the vast
augmentation of the commerce of the world will not suf
fer any of them to decay though none will be likely to
reach that commercial supremacy which once entered
into their dreams Ireland destined to shake the
poppes from her brow, awake from her ethargy of cen
turies and the of successful adventure The
profitable manufactures in her northern counties, the
vva Of her agricultural labor, and the termination
of the Atlantic telegraph within her soil and the brilliant
commencement of commercial enterprise in Galway must
send magnetic influence into other parts of that fine
island and arouse her from her gnobe slumber5 to
glorious destiny,-Neoark Daily Adveriser
