WHAT TEMPERANCE CAN DO.

In Mrs.. Halls book on Ireland occurs the
following passage, which person will hard
ly read without emotion
We entered one day cottage in the sub
urbs Of Cork a young woman was knitting
stockings at the door. 1t was as neat and
comfortable as any in the most prosperous
districts Of England. We tell her brief story
in her own words as nearly as we can recall
them "My husband is wheewright, and
has always eerned his guinea a week he was
a good workman, but the love Of drink was
strong TO him, and it wasn't often he brought
me home more than five shillings on Satur-
day night and it broke my heart to sec the
children too ragged to send to school, to say
nothing Of the starved look they had. out of
the little | could give them. Well, God be
praised, he took the pledge, and the next Sat
urday he laid twenty.one shilings upon the
chair you sit upon. Oh didn't give thanks
upon my Blended knees that night still was
fearful it wouldn't last, and spent no more
than the five shillings | used to, saying to
myself may be the money will be more want
ed than it is now. Well, the next week he
brought me the same and the next, until
eight weeks had passed and glory to God
there was no change for the bad ia my hus-
band and all the while he never asked me
why there was nothing better for him out Of
his earnings; so | felt there was no fear for
him, and the ninth week, when he came to
me, had this table bought, and these six
chairs, four for the children and one for him-
self and | was dressed in a new gown. and
the children all had new clothes and shoes
and stockings, and upon his chair ] put a now
suit and upon his plate put the bill and re-
ceipt for them all, just the eight sixteen shil-
lings, the cost that / d saved out OF his wages,
not knowing what might happen, and that al
ways went for drink. And he cried, good
lady and good gentleman. he cried like a ba-
by, but twas with thanks TO God and now
where's the healthier man than my husband
in the whole county Ct Cork, or happier wife
than myself, or deceDter or better fed children

Our Armu Correspondence.

tV We hear 40 much said and see so much
printed hercabouis respecting the "mastorly
inactivity of the army on the Potomac, and
what the soldiers are said to think about il,
that it really does us good to read such letter
as we publish to-day from an officer Of high
rank in the Fifth Regiment. His remarks
respecting the "Home Guards" and penny
a-liners" may be dstasteful to some who have
lent their influence to stir up discomfort and
faultfnding, but when the people find, as they
surely will. that they have been deceived by
these gentlemen in buckram,' the reaction
will be something "more than they bargained
for"
