IN the ruin represented by starvation
01gratlon, obstruction of families, judicial
sizes, and agrarian murders, the amount Of
unan misery represented by the statistics
Ireland for the last fifteen years will
ger retain melancholy pre-eminence in
lstory. In l849, two millions of persons
kecelved outdoor relief During the last
queen years upward Of two millions OF
persons have emigrated from Ireland. The
CIRCULATION of the banks in Ireland dimin-
shed from 26 ,9l7, 269 in 1850, to R5, 63S, 3O1
~ 1857. The best of the peasantry are 60
ing as fast as they can. And, as they 60,
Inc land which they cultivated becomes
waste. The estimated value of the crops in
!! Ireland in lS4l was fifty millions in 1851,
lorty-three millions in 1861, thirty-five
millions. The value of the real and perso-
nal property on which probate and success
SION duties were received in Ireland, de-
clined from eli, 0l6, 1873 in 1859, to a1O, 49,
f6l IN 1861. From 1858 to 1868, the amount
Of funded property held in Ireland has
every year been diminishing, and it is now
nearly four millions less than in 1858. Let
as turn to the railways. What never be-
fore occurred in the history Of railway en-
terprise in any country, has occurred in
Ireland. Fol- two years the receipts on the
main trunk lines throughout the country
hre rapidly diminishing. The number Of
he professional and educated classes in
.H1and is rapidly diminishing.
The results are thus summed up by Mr..
Olson:
| n the progress, and civilization, and
p,sperity in Europe, the Irish tpea>antry

lie a beaten army in the field, when there
lao longer use in wasting life upon hope

cantry where there is no field OF industry

alIrishman, lament that the laws unde,
wich we live do not permit them 10 re-

and Davis got sucked Sheridan, at the
time TO winch allude, was considered by
the most enlightened rebels in Richmond
TO have been secured. Our position was
between Brook Church and Strawberry
Hill; the former place about five miles
from the town, and the latter on the Gen.
trail Railroad, about four miles from Rich
mond. On the north side Of the Chicka-
hominy Fitzhugh Lee had his cavalry and
artillery. Gracis's and Barton's brigades
OF infantry were on the south side. Be-
tween these formidable lines lay Sheridan
and his command. ..Fitzhugh Lee sent
word to President Davis that the Yankees
were hemmed in. No avenue of escape
was left nnguarded. If he wanted to see
how Yankees could run, he had but to ride
MED by Gen. Bragg, did ride out. When
he arrived, the 9Th New York and 18th
Pennsylvania, Of Deven's Brigade, Tor
belts Division, were driving the rebels
from Meadow Bridge. This is how Davis
and Bragg got sucked They came to
see how fast the Yankees could run, and
behold, their own Virginians were too fleet
footed; for the Yankees pursued them
hard, but could not overtake them.
