Mr.. Thomas Miller read careful paper showing
how numerous and how successful were the settlers
in ireland since the year of the famine. Nearly
1000 persons (chiehy Scotchmen) have recently
settled in Ireland propretors, farmers, agents or
chief stewards. Mr.. Miller addressed letters to
many of the settlers in various localities, inquirng
how they were satisfied with their investments of
time and money in Ireland, and out of l7O replies,
there only eight or nine unfavorable. In
Connaught, numerous Scotch proprietors employ
thousands of aborers; near Tuam are many English
yeomen located on small properties purchased by
themselves, resembling the so called Estates men,
(or petty proprietors in fee,) of Cumberland and
the border districts. The Chevot sheep introduced
into Connaught reach larger size than on their
native hills In the province ofLeinster the largest
number of Scotchmen have settled; and in the vi
cinty of the town of Athy, in Kildare, there are
about forty Scotchmen located as farmers, the
country around presenting the usual aspects of a
choice Scotch district. The whole agricultural
class in Ireland is possessed ofmoney, and (un-

A NOVEL ENCOUNTER IN INDIA

Russell writing from the camp of the British
army in India, varies his account of sieges and bat
ties with the Sepoys with the description of an en-
counter with enemy: ''We passed through
the large village Of Tilshur," he says, "and en-
camped about o'clock in a large mango to the
south of it, not without some considerable opposi-
ton from some of the Inhabitants; for it so hap
pened that the first camp fire that was lighted dis
turbed community of the most vindctive bees in
a hollow of the trees above, that | ever heard of;
they at descended to the assault, and in few
minutes most of their enemies were utterly routed.
The commander-in- n-chef himself was attacked and
driven right out of the field, or rather out of the
tope; for the enemy did not desist until they had
forced him to take refuge in the open plain.
The Chief of the Staff, too, was attacked, and
utterly defeated in few seconds Col. Althorp,
after gallant stand, was obliged to fly, with the
loss of his spectacles. Mr.. Mackinnon, using a
large mango branch as a caymore, resisted his foes
with great activity and courage for some time but
finally he was obliged to fly, wounded in several
places, and to take refuge in neighboring tank
The guard over the treasures also obliged tC
abandon their post the natives wrapped themselve.
up in their cotton robes and lay on the ground
and in a short time the bees were completely vic
torious. During the struggle, all the Head quarter
Staff armed themselves with green boughs so that
it looked as if they were rehearsinga second marci
| to Dunsinane As soon the tents were pitched
we had shelter from our enemy.
