The details Of the conflict are followed With
keen attention, but the feeling With which |
they are watched Is totally different from that |
which has ever before prevailed with regard |
to ary distant struggle. On all former occar
eions there has been an intense partisanship, |
which has given anima tion to every observer. |

that eeemed Of IN adverse character almost
unbearable: But in the present case We still
remain without animosity to either side.
The balance Of sympathy continues, as It has

THE HARVEST IN IRELAND.
The Dublin lIews Of August 21st says:
In consequence of the very heavy rain last
week and sunday, the country presents .. y
very different appearance from what 1t did
son1e time ago Hundreds of fields are Gov
cred with wster' brs fortunately, iew Of them
are badly lodged. Nearly all the potato fields
| show symptoms Of disease in the tops, but
| the general opinion is that the tubers, 80 far,
| are but very little affected. The turnip crop
| alone profits By the rain, and it is everywhere
I most luxuriant. It is q matter Of regret that
this valuable root is not grown more ezten-
/ s.vcly in this country, for which the soil and
climate are sc well adapted. Near Dublin and
| Cork many fields Of corn are already cut, and
| Of the crop is dead ripe, so that with few
! Gays dry weather reAping will commence
generally. There is every reason to belieye
that even 1ow fine weather would do much

have suffered from tie rain. and the present
appearances, coupled Tith rising mercary

promise favorable weather, which, it is hoped,
