Recruiting for the Yankees in Ireland.
1t is now pretty generally known that the
feeling of hatred to English rule, which
has lately been revived in this country, and
of. which there were unmistakeable eVideu-
ces on the occasion of the marriage of the
Prince and Princess of Wales, is the result
of the teachings of emissaries who have
passed over from the other side Of the great
ocean, their object being to provoke emf.
grafton and get the able-bodiea men within
the mesh of the provost marsha, who watch
es their arrival and hurries them away to
the field of battle. The reasonable assem-
bling and drilling Of large masses which
are nocturnally occurring in the outskirts
of this city and of the country towns, are
preparatory lessons in military tactics, to
make them more ready to serve in the brig
ades of the Meaghers, the Corcoraus, the
Houlihans, and the other heroes of whom
the history of 1S4S records that tthey did
not fight, but ran away" The Yankee a
gents, now prowling among us, have also
directed their attention to that half made
war material, the Irish militia. 1t is assert.
ed that numbers of the men of this force
are subsidized to enrol the youth of the
country in the nationalist clubs, and then
teach them military drill. Each draft of
emigrants which leaves this port is accom-.
panied by militiamen, and so many of the
latter have already disappeared that the
ranks of the regiments will show marked
deficiencies at the forthcoming militia train
ing. The exodus is carried out largely BY
the ships Of the Liverpool, New York and
Philadelphia Company, whose vessels leave
this harbor mid weekly for New York; but
the number of passengers, from the cause
above suggested, has SO considerably in
creased that supplemental steamers have
had to be placed on the line each of the
three last weeks; and, instead of the num-
Der being six or seven hundred week, they
now offer to the amount of some fourteen or
sixteen hundred.
This weekly outpour from the port of
Cork, it is calculated, will continue during
the spring and summer, at the rate of twelve
or fifteen hundred human beings per week.
The gullubility of the humber classes of
our population is~deplorable, as it makes
them ready prey of the willy: and that
those who are now dealing with them as
merchaptable commodity may not be foiled
in their traffic, the dupes are estrarged from
their Roman Catholic priesthood, who they
are deceived to believe are in the pay of
the British crown to defeat the rebellion,
and that it was through their tergiyersation
the previousirebelliens in Ireland had mis-
carried. Young mems religious associa-
tions and temperance societies, which are
under the guidance of olergymen, are now

ideas; and certainly the result which they
believe must follow their organization is
utopian in the extreme. But the fact is,
an idea has been widespread, and not to be
removed by argument, that if the sons OF
Erin aid the Yankees in conquering the
Dixies, the former will repay the good ser.
vices by despatching fleets and soldiers to
Ireland, who will wrest this country from
its possessors and hand it over as reward
to those who fight under the Republican
