4 RISING STAR or IRELAND.

In consequence of the acknowledgements Of estates In
Ireland by the operation Of the act providing for tho re-
mova OF encumbances upon them the introduction Of
greater variety in crops and other measures that king
dom has risen to good degree Of prosperity The rise
OF wages has been further promoted by the excessive
emigration Of its laborng population for several years
this and other countries better husbandry has from
these causes succeeded the negligent and superficial cu
ture Of former times and agricultural implements are
being brought into still further to aid on the good
work Nor it be doubted that the establishment of
Galway for the port whence line of dozen steamers
will depart to various quarters Of the globe and which
they will return, will cause it to expand to the dmen
sions and opulence Of great city This circumstance
together with the growing business of Southampton rs
large maritime port may perhaps impede the hitherto
rapid increase Of Liverpool situated between the rising
cities but the vast augmentation Of the commerce tho
world will not suffer any Of them to decay though none
will be likely to reach that commercial supremacy which
once entered into their dreams Ireland seems destined
to shake the peoples from her brew, awake from her
lethargy of centuries and the Of successful ad
venture The profitable manufactures In her northern
counties, the revival of her agricultural labor and
the termination Of the Atlantic telegraph within her SOIL
and the brilliant of commercial enter
prise in Galway, must send magnetic influence into
other parts of that fine island, and arouse her from
her ignoble slumbers toa glorious destiny Nepak Daily

THE ATLANTIC CABLE.

The latest intelligence from the cable is worse than
discouraging. Prof. Thompson, the present super
intendent, is satisfied that water has reached the
conducting wire, impairing the insulation and thus
putting an end to the transmission of ineligible
signals 1t is believed by tho electricians that the
interruption exists not less than two hundred and
twenty miles from vaeniia, and il is surmised, with
great probability that several fractures may have
occurred. So strong is the belief in England that
the cable is failure that shares have declined TO
very low figure.
II, upon further investigation, these defecs are
really found to exist there is very little hope of their
removal, for il will be utterly impossible to lift the
wire from great depths for the purpose of repairing
it, 1t lie true that the cable might be raised the
shore where the ocean is notyery deep, but in places
where the depth is something like two or three
miles the strain upon it viii forbid the attempt,

WHAT Is 10 BECOME OF TURKEY ,

The eyes Of the whole civilized world are now turn
ed towards Turkey with more than usual interest,
and every is looking for that denouemsnt which
cannot be far distant. Tho persistent efforts Of the
western powers Of Europe to introduce state Of
things in Turkey for which tho popular mind is
prepared can only end in total disruption of the
isting governmental fabric. Under these circum-
stances it is not to be wondered at that each sue
ceedng steamer brings accounts ofnew disturbances,
sedtions, and insnrrectons The existing govern
ment is unable to meet the exgences Of its position,
and is therefore impotent irresolute and inactive,
and, with true Mahometan fatalism, yields the
guidance Of the ship Of State to the hands of destiny
What is to be the end Of all this What has be-
come Of the Integrity and independence Of Turkey,
which the western powers so recently spending
millions to secure There is not enough vitality in
the 'sck man" to render the application Of ordinary
remedies Of any avail. There has been great deal
of extravaganza in the administration Of the govern
ment, both in public and in the Sultan's private
household; and an effort has been made for re-
srenchment. In order tomest the pressing demands
upon her, Turkey has contracted another loan Of

the animal was written upon the voucher.--
