There is never any love lost between the
English and the Irish but We think We
have seldom seen anything so malignant
as the following reference to the Iyishmcn
OF our armies; it occurs in discussion Of
Smith O'Brien's letter by the Saturday
Rerier:
"Mr Russell has been too kind to his
countrymen to tell us mucn about their
conduct at Bull Run. All we know is that
the Federal army was largely composed
Of Irish, and that the Federal army ran

The rumor Of his death, which happily for
a sorrowing world has turned out to be
untrue, implies that he disappeared. We
know that IN the moment of battle Irish
patriots do sometimes mysterously disap,

tentative of surrendering. Where could
Meagher have been, that his comrades
thought that he was dead ? Can it be that
there is a cabbage garden near Bull Run?
Or IN default OF that familiar and conve-
nient refuge, is it possible that he took to
the woods and lost his way? A natural
curiosity imrels US to express hope that
the name OF the particular vegetable to
which he owed his valuable life will not
be hidden from the world. When that
Interesting work appears upon "The Re.

stand that a learned Milessan is prepar-
ing, We confidently expect the botanical
accessories of each successive achievement
will be carefully recorded"
1t would not be well for the head Of the
fellow who wrote this to come within
reach of shillalah. Meagher and the
Irish were as gallant men at Bull Run As
the world has seen in any battle.
