The IRISH Potato Crop.

The Dublin FreemaR's Journal, in an
article on the future of the potato crop,
says:
The potato crop has been dug out,
and the result had been anticipated. More
than one half is gone, and whether the
remainder will stand in close pits, includ-
ing the slightest approach remains to be
seen. In the provincial papers we find
that some localities had been visited less
severely than others, and our country
friends draw general conclusions about
things being much better then they bad
been represented. We wish we could join
in the encouragement, and hold out a
hope of improvement. But we cannot
The staple food of the country has been
already reduced one-half, an estimate in
which farmers boards ofguardians and Ian
ded proprietors concur, while in some dis
tricts It would not be extrayagant to assert
that, SO far from portion of the crop
being available food, the people will not
have sufficient for seed. 1t is useless to
disguise the fact and the government should
take instant steps, concert with PROJECTORS,
to give employment during the ensuing year.
The Poor law wonld suffice for the relief of
ordinary paupers but there is a class for
whom the union work house never intended,
and that class comprehends nearly all the
abe bodied labor of the country and a
great number of small farmers. The latter
will suffer seriously, and, unless landlords
remit portion of thier rents the conse-
guences will be no less disastrous 10 land
lords than tenants.

g9- We look in vain in President Lin
coins message for any Recommendation in
regard to "contrabands," except the propo-
sal that such as shall be confiscat-d by
States shall be received under some rule Of
valuation, for such States proportion Of
federal taxes, and that some general plan
Of colonization be devised for them and
with their eyn consent for the free colored
population. This recommendation is I'M
doubtedly one which by its Importance will
attract general thought and attention, 1t
does not touch. however. the policy of gen
eral confscation Of slaves Of rebels, or the
employment of such instrumentality for
the suppression of the rebellion.
The message, we think, will fail entirely
to meet public expectation. It's Disagree
able TO express the opinion, but it seems to
us hasty, superficial, weak; deficient in
any bold aud statesmanlike views of the
great questions presented by the present
state Of the country.-Mo. Democrat.

BUSINESS is remarkably brisk in all the
departments of trade. The wholesaling
business is heavier than at any previous
season, and dealers who have laid in large
stocks for the winter, are fearful OF their
supplies being exhausted before winter sets
in, unless navigation holds out long enough
for them to increase their stock. Any one
who had doubts OF st. Paul being the great
wholesaIing point, would have been assured
of the fact by the amount of its trade for
the last fortnight.

giving to Almighty God, the giver of all good.
That, though our sins be many, He has not
ceased his merciful dispensations towards US.
That He has " visited the earth and watered
the ridges thereof abundantly. and made
soft with showers, and blessed the springing
thereof, and crowned the year with His good.
ness," so that "the fields drop fatness and
the pastures are clothed with hocks, and the
valleys also are covered with corn"
That He has saved US from pestienCe and
famine, and preserved this State in peace and
health, and in due allegiance and loyal devotion
to the Government of these United States.
That, while in other portions of the Con-
federacy, the dreadful visltations of civil war
are fulfilling the penalty of an impious re-
bellion against His ordinances and the funda-
mental covenants Of human society, the angel
of peace still sits at our gates, and our children
sleep secure in quiet and prosperous homes,
far from the din Of the battle which is to
decide their destiny.
And let US thank Him, too, that he has not
deserted our beloved country in the day of her
sore calamity, but that already His brow of
promise, radiant with celestial omens Of vic.
tory. spans the tempest which daIkens the
land.
That 10 this end He has united'the hearts and
arrayed the invincibe legions OF her people
around her TO defend the cause OF good gov
ernment and free institutions; ana by The
sacrificial blood of her hei oes has consecIated
anew the cause Of country and liberty in the
affections of her children, and in the sympa-
thes and asperations Of the civilized and
Christian world.
And finally, with the incense OF thanks ot1er-
ing, let the prayer go up from every altar, that
God may throw the shield of His mercy around
the brave soldiers who have gone from our
midst to do battle for the right that He may
grant us successful issue out of all our trials;
and that this wicked rebellion may terminate
in the triumph of the just authority OF the
laws, and in the re.establishment OF CIVIL order
and peace throughout reunited and prosper
Gus country, to the glory and honor OF His
name.
