lie Irish papers all anticipate much suffer.
ing this winter from the unsoundness OF the
potatoes, which seem to be almost as much
el,ed upon as ever or the slstenance OF the
pop.ls on, notwithstanding the experience of
the !asl fifteen years as TO its uncertainty.
The following extracts from papers of recent
date are but specimens of the tone OF most OF
the journals
-FrOm the Dublin Freeman, Nov. l4,J
The potato crop is now dug out, and Tie
result had been anticipated. More than one
half is gone, and whether the remainder will
stand in close pits excluding the slightest ap-
pioach of air, remains TO be seen. In the
provincial papers find that scme localities
had been visited less severely than others, and
our country triends draw general conclusions
about ''things being much better than they
had been represented" We wish we could
jpin in the encouragement and hold out hope
ot improvement. But we cannot. The staple
food of the country has been already reduced
one half, an estimate in which farmers, boards
OF guardians, aud landed proprietors concur
while in some districts it would not be eXtrav-
agant to assert, HAT, so far from a portion Of
the crop being available for food tie people
will not have sufficient ior ftod
from the Limerick Reporter.l
The harvest returns in the neighborhood of
Newcastle West are lamentably deficient. We
have been credibiy informed that not more
than One-fOurth OF the potato crop is available
for human food, while acres OF wheat have not
been cut down at all, but allowed to be eaten
down by cattle. Large quantities OF hay,
which has lain several weeks in the meadows
half covered with water, is now being removed
to the haggard almost useless except for ma
nure. The gl0Omiest anticpations are in.
dulged in as regards the prospects of the small
farmers during the comine season.
from the Northern Whig, Nov l5l
The crop OF this year has been extensively
infected by the old disease. Immense guam
titles of the gross produce are totally unfit for
human food; large proportion OF the balance
will however, be used in cattle feeding and
it is to be hoped that the portion unfit ior any
purpose will not exceed a moiety of the entire
produce of the potato lands. Prices are very
that the consumer will more than share the
loss with the grower. In olden times, and
long before the destructive blight had seized
on the national esculent one shilling per hun
dred weight was often the market rate for
excellent potatoes Occasionally higher prices
ruled, but more frequently still lower ones
In 1888, for Instance, choice varieties which
had been carted seven or eight mites lrOm the
country, were sold in our market at the
nominal rate of eighteen pence the hundred
weight, or one penny for each stone of fourteen
pounds. The current rates this day will aver
age four shllings the hundred, or about six
times the price paid twenty years ago.

Gen. MeCIenan's visit TO His Wife and
Daughter.

rFrom the New York Herald
WASHINGTON, Dec 4.--;rhs morning, at
about eleven o'clock, an engine and elegant
car attached lett the Washington depot Tor
Baltimore. Two persons occupied the car,
one lady and the other Il gentleman The
latter was abont five feet six, stout built, san.
dy complexion, with handsome mOustiche
anG imperial. He was dressed in plain black
suit The lady was the vile OF one OF Gen.
McCielIan's staff. The special train, as ii
passed the principal military stations, occa-
stoned some attention from the troops lettering
about. They gazed at the occupants OF lhe car,
suppOsing them to bl disiing guShed strangers
from abroad. The train arrived at Baltimore,
where the parties were to meet friends Irom
the west An eXplos on OF IL locomotive on
the western road, causing the instant death OF
the engineer aud fireman, delayed tlIeir friends
aud kept the strangers IN Baltimore several
hours. a portion Of the time was occupied in
the room OF the president OF the Northern Cen
trail railroad. The stranger, finding they had
no time to spare, proceeded to the Eutaw
House, and dined, not booking their names.
Mr.. Smith, superintendent ol the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad, acted as a ccerOne. After
dinner conducted by Mr. Smith, the lady and
gentleman drove quietly through Baltimore in
an open barouche. AT last their friends came
from the west, and the strln-e gentleman
greeted his wife, and gazed tor the first time
upon his first born. Tie whole company was
soon conveyed to the Washington depot, and
being safely seated in the splendid parlor car,
provided by superintendent Smith, the cngin-
eer started the tram, and the party arrived
safely in this city about 8 O'Clock this evening.
The mysterious gentleman in black, with
his precious charge, dlighted from the car,
companed by the rest OF the party, all of
whom took carriages and proceeded to splen-
did mansion, corner OF B and Fifteenth streets
This strange gentleman in black was less
personage than George b. Mcclellan, gener.
al-in-chiet of the army OF the United States
He proceeded on this quiet mission to meet his
wife, daughter, and .motlier-in-aw, Mrs. Mar
cy, and their friends. The general was ac
companied from Washington by Mrs. Captain
Raymond. AT several points where the train
stopped, at Annapolis and the Relay House,
some OF the soldiers recognized the general
just as the train moved on, and the greatest
anxiety was instantly manifested in each case
to get look at the young chieftain. This be-
ing impossible, the troops would shout and
swing their hats high in air. In Baltimore
he was not recognized by the masses, aud
enjoyed the drive through the city unmolest-
ed. This is the first time the general has
left Washington, except in the strict line Of
military duty, since he came here.
