Whatever we may think of Irish Revolutions
and surely the last one had somewhat ludicrous
as we'll as unfortunate termination-it cannot be
questioned that Smith O'Brien's share in it was I'M
selfish and patriotic.
Mr. O'Brien's visit to America has been made for
amusement and information. lie is DESTROYS of ac-
quaintng himself with the practical working of our
institutions and in order that he may slavery
it is he has first of all to the South and will
spend some time, we understand, with Senators
Hammond and Toombs upon their estates in South
Carolina and Georgia This is certainly very SEN
sible course. 1t will secure two objects he has in
view. The first is to learn something of slavery
from personal observation upon the cotton fields and
in the negro quarters of the Southern States. The
second is, to avoid as much as possible the intlis
crimnate and violent inequalities and adulations of
mobs of admirng compatriots. Had Mr.. OBrien
fingered at the North, being novelty and an Irish
lion" his steps would have been attended from city
to city by thousands of enthusiastic Milesians, whom
he did not make the trip across the Atlantic to see
and between the screnades and the public dinners,
the poor man would have been bored to death. In
the South he can enjoy his customary hours of rest
cat his dinners peacefully without being called on
every day to make speech afterwards, and travel
in comparative comfort. And by the time that he
returns Northward. having ceased to be novelty
he will, perhaps, be permitted to move about like
any other private gentleman without the fear of
uprarious reception before his eyes. We trust his
visit to America may be altogether agreeable to him
self, and that he may return safely to his home in
Limerick when it is over

A NIAGARA OF GoLD.-One of those close fellows
who always find everything out after they have been
told it. says that the very Eames of the Atlantic Tel
eeraph squadron presaged failure The Cyclops
limited that the directors were half blind, and the
Niagara carried with it the idea of great fall This
precious clever fellow might have been all right as
far as the Telegraph Cable was concerned but had
it applied to the communications which link the
public with Wood Eddy Dc Co., of Augusta, Ga, he
would have been all wrong Prizes so crown a
message to this firm, that it is rarely the case that
any fellow, precious or otherwise, predicts blank.
There have it is true, been great falls in the estab-
lishment but they have been Niagaras of gold. BY
sending $lO IS, or g 80, to their address at Au-
gusta, Ga, or Wilmington, Delaware, you may re-
ceive in return the whole, half or quarter in their
magnificent prize of $40, 900.
MINOR MoRALE.-Byt their petite morale the French
mean poteness, and that has its place in Christian
home. The cordial desire to please, sensitive
shrinking from whatever would hurt or offend, and
similar things tend to sweeten all the intercourse OF
life Parents should attend to them with care as
the inlets of much home happiness, and where they
are neglected the Saviours truth has not free
in household If politeness be morality in little
things and if life be commonly made of such things
no more is needed to show how much our happiness
depends upon them. The kindliest purest nature
will cultivate this habit with great care and the
Word Of God contains the principle which should
guide us here as in all besides-it teaches each to
esteem others better than himself.

The visit of SO remarkable person TO the United

comment, for though We have had many refugees of
Irish Agitation in America, of whom the most prom
nent have become citizens and fixed here their
abode, not one of them sacrificed so much to the
cause as O'Brien. Meagher, John Mitchell, and the
younger members of the band did, it is true resign
the hopeful promise of professional distinction, and
brave doubtful future of perjury in exile if indeed
they should not be hanged but they had the ad-
vantage of youth, and they We're not embarrassed
by the forfeiture of high political and social posi-
ton William Smith O'Brien was already man of
middle age He had large estates that might be
confiscated Of an arstocratic family by birth, a
family which took the other side of the Agitation
Question, he might reasonably have looked forward
to the highest preferment from the Crown even the
Lord Lieutenancy of Ireland. Besides his tastes
and associations were English, not Irish A fag at
Harrow School, where Byron received his early edu

sty Of Cambridge and entered Parliament, where he
was esteemed as man of ability and influence.
To stir up rebellion across the Irish channel was
to estiange from him ali his friends to shut himself
out from every prospect of advancement in the
State probably to be stripped of his landed posses
sons; perchance to meet felons death. But Smith
OBrien did not hesitate. He quarrellcd even with
OConnell when the latter discountcnanced agita-
