The "Irish Exodus" as it is called, Is at
tracing much attention. The New York
Journal of Commerce learns that ''the Irish
emigration this year to America las compar-
ed with that Of the two or three preceding
years. will be very large" From the Ba-
rony Erris, County Mayo, in Ireland, it is'
estimated that of population of about 90
600 Inhabitants. nearly all will emigrate to
this country. The distress is great through
out ireland, and all who can procure the
means will undoubtedly leave. The preva-
lent apprehension Of short crops, has caused
a panic, and Il rush is made from the threat
ened country. The present immigration APP
pears to be principally made up from the az
riculiural classes, and as to pecuniary condi-
ton. is much better than that which resulted
from the famine and sickness i'll lS4C-'1.-
The books Of the Commissioners of Emigra
ton, give the following as the total immi-
grafton at the port Of New York for the last
four years: In 1856, l4l,G12; in 1857, lS4,-
7733; in 1853, 1889: in 1859, 1892. Sta
tistics taken from Parliamentary returns
show that the total population Of Ireland in
1889 was 5,9SS, $40, or nearl y 1000, 900 less
than it was in 1881, and 100000 less than
il was in 1911.

A Letter from Hakodadi, in Japan, dated
in January last says:-"A Mr.. Smith, an Am
erican merchant, doing business at Hakodadi,
recently caught one of the natives in the act
Of robbing his house. Mr.. Smith discharg-
ed his pistol at the intruder, and thinks he
wounded him, but the robber, dropping
some money he had obtained, took to flight
Mr.. Smith pursued him, and fired SIX times
while running about three hundred yards,
until the man fell, pierced with five balls
He lived only about one hour. Mr.. Smith
was arrested, tried by the American Consul,
and acquitted. The Russian and English
Consuls the Governor, Vice-Goyernor, two
interpreters and several of the lower grades
of natives, were present at the trial, and did
not appear to be satisfied with the decision.
The affair was settled too quickly to suit
their fancy. As this is the first instance of
the kind that has occurred in Japan, 1t has
excited considerable interest among the for
eiuncrs in that country"
