AN IRISH LETTER.
DoUBLIN, Swate Ireland,
April the two

1 viz WV
DEAR NEFFA.-I havn't sent We a
lether since the last time l wrote to We
because we have moved from the for
mer place Of living and didn't know
where lether would find ye; but l now
with pleasure take up my pen to inform
you of the death of your own living
uncle, Fitzpatrick, who died suddenly,
after lingering illness Of six wakes
The poor man was in violent convul-
shuns the whole time of his illness.
lying perfectly quiet all the while and
spacheless entirely, talkin' incoherent-
ly, and cryin' for wather. l have no
opportunity Of informing you of his
deth, sooner, excipt l wrote to We BY
the last post, which went two days be-
fore his deth, and thin ye'd had the
postage to pay. I'm at great loss tu
tell what his deth was occasionod BY;
but | fear it was by his last Sickness
He niver was well IN tin days together
IN the whole time OF his confinement,
but be that as it will, as soon as he
breathed his last, the doctor gave up
all hopes Of his recovery. Ineedn't
tell ye anything about his age, for We
will know that in May mkt be would
have been 95 years ould barring ten
months and had he lived till that time
he would have been sex months dead.
His property is very considerable--it
devolves upon his next kin, who is dead
some time since, SO expect it will be
equally divided between US, and thin
my dear Larry, yen get two-tbirds of
the whole; and ye know that he had
fine estate, which was sold to pay his
debts, and the remainder he lost at
horse race. But it is the opinion of all
the ladies present that he would have
won the race il the horse he ran against
hadn't been too fast for him-bad luck
TO the baste. But poor soul be will
niyer ate or dhrink more. And now,
Larry, my dear boy. ye havn't re-
Iashun in the wide world, except me-
self and yer two cousens that were kilt
in the last war. But l can't dwell up
On this mournful subject but will sale
This letber with black sailing wax, and
put on your uncle's coat of arms. So
beg ye not 10 brake the sale when We
'pen the lether and don't open the leth-
,r until three or four days afther We
'esave it-6e that time ye will be pre-
pared for the mournful tidings. |
Yer ould swateheart, Mary, sends
Ter love TO We unbeknowenst to me-
Nhin the bearerof this arrives in HAM
lion, Ak him for this lether, and il he
ioesn't know which one il is, tell him
hat it is the one that spakes OF your
lncle's deth, and is sailed in black.
Yer afectshunate aunt,

ANDREW JOHNSON ON SLAVERY.
A STRONG SPEECH IN FAVOR Ol
IMMEDIATE EMANCIPATION.
FREEDOM PROCLAIMED IN TEN
NESSEE.

Doubts have been expressed in GER
tain quarters as to the position of An
drew johnson on the question of eman
cipation, it being believed by som,
friends Of the Government that he OBJ
jected TO the policy OF the Administra
lion. Such doubt must now cease for.
ever. II will be seen from the follow.
ing, which we copy from the Nashville
Union, that he is in favor Of immediate
emancipation, if it is practicable, if not,
for gradual emancipation. By this
noble and timely utterance, Tennessee
is placed along side OF Missouri, as
destined soon to become free State.
From the Nashville Union.
GOV. JoHEsoE's SPEECH ON SATURDAY
NIGHT.
In the course of bis remarks TO the
large impromptu outpouring of the
loyal citizens which assembled on Sat.
urday night at the Capitol, TO rejoice
over The fall Of Fort Sumter, Governor
johnson said that the heart of the
masses Of the people beat strongly for
freedom; that the system of negro
slavery had proved balefult to the nation
by arraying itself against the institu-
tions and interests Of the people; and
that the time had clearly come when
means should be devised for its total
eradication from Tennessee. Slavery
was cancer on our society, and the
scalpel Of the statesman should be used
not simply to pare away the exterior
and leave the roots to propagate the
disease anew, but to remove it alto
gether. Let us destroy the cause OF
our domestic dissensions and this bloody
civil war. 1t is neither wise nor Just
TO compromise with an evil so gigantic.
He avowed himself unequivocally for
the removal of slavery; the sooner it
can be effected the better. Some in
convenience might, most likely would,
follow temporarily, but these would be
more than compensated by the grand
impulse given to all our interests BY
the substitution of free for slave labor
He was for immediate emancipation, ifl
he could get it, il this could moi be OBJ
tanned be was for gradual emancipation;
but emancipation at all events. He
thought that the benefits of gradual
emancipation, was a good deal ike the
benefits conferred on the dog in the
fable, whose tail was cut off an inch at
a time by humane surgeon, whose
kindness Of heart would not permit him
to remove it at one stroke. He be-
lIeved slavery was curse, and he
wanted to see it wiped out without de-
lay. We would be stronger, richer,
happier, and more prosperous, as soon
as this was done.
de invoked the people to cast off the
slavish fear which had hitherto sealed
their lips on this question, and speak
and act herceforth as freemen should.
Fhe slave aristecracy had long held its
loot upon their neeks and exacted
heavy tribute from them, even to rob-
oing them of free speech. Let the
ira of freedom be henceforth pro-
claimed to the noH-slaVehoheys of Ten
lesseel
The speech of the Governor, of
which the above is, OF course, very
imperfect sketch, was enthusiastically
lpplauded from time to time, by the ,
'ery large crowd assembled on the oc-
;asion.

POETRY.
Didn't Know What he Meant.

He gave me a knife, one day at school,
Four-baded, the handle of pearls
And great black words on the wrapper said,
ssFor the darlingest little girl.r
I was glad! O yes, yet the crimson blood
To my young cheeks came and went,
And my heart thumped wondrously pit-a-pat,
But didn't know what 1t meant.
One night he said must Jump on a sled,
For the snow was falling fast;
was half afraid, but he coaxed and coaxed,
And he got me on at last
Laughing and chatting in merry gfee,
Tony home his course he bent, ,
And my sisters looked at each other and smiled,
But didn't know what it meant.
The years passed on, and they touched his eye
With shadow of deeper blue;
They gave to his brow manlier grace,
To his cheek swarthier hue. ~
We stood by the dreaInily ripping brook,
When the day was almost spent,
His whispers were soft as the lullaby,
And-now | know what he meant! y M
