The Language of Gratitude.

The New York Times in speaking of the
Fenian army of invasion now occupying Can
.adian soil, says "Most of them are heroes of
those who bravely led the retreat at Bull Run,
who helped to make up the great army of
bounty-jumpers, who, when they cease to be
stipendiaries Of the War Department, usually
draw their rations from the Commissioners of
Corrections, who are the curse of American
society, and perpetual social and political
scourge upon the American people.
1t then mildly suggests that if "two or three
thousand of these vagabonds" fall into the
hands of the Canadian authorities they should
not be spared on 'our account" H.H
We are prepared to believe that Irishmen
may, with much persuasion, be tempted to in
dulge at long intervals in whiskey punch, or
even under strong pressure in whiskey
straight; but from Donnybrook Fair to Fon-
tenoy they have shown, whatever their be-
havior may be when treats are involved, that
they are not given to leading in retreats

This view, we take it, will be allowed to be
just by the majority of our readers; and if the
opinion be sound, it follows that the presence
of an agent in Europe, to secure the most de-
srabe classes of immigrants, is additionally
necessary. "a
The Germans will naturally seek regions
where newspapers are printed in their own
tongue, where large communities of their own
blood keep up the customs, language and
sports of their fatherland; and the law ofsup-
ply and demand which some trust will solve
this question, in asserting itself, will not fail
to develop itself in the main, as we have indi-
Gated; for the demand for labor in this coun-
try North, South, and West is enormous 1t
may strike some of our readers that the ideas
we have presented, relative to the importance
of wise selection of people to come among
us, are "abstractions"; but, we know that this
very means of introducing labor from CONT
mental Europe-especially the German ele-
ment-has been looked to already as means
of accumulating political force i'll Virginia.
When we can secure a class of population, as
we can, which will readily assimilate with our
own, we prove ourselves unwise by neglecting
policy which is obviously sound. ...
Let us organize our society and seek our
labor among the races speaking our own
tongue

The Ethics of Trade.

This nineteenth century of ours is famous
for sending flannel shirts to the shivering At
ricans, and oargoes of ice to the parched coast
of Labrador renowned for its tender interest
in the personal comfort of green-fn turtles,
and hystericsl over the sufferings of unbutch
cred veal.
1t hands round its glossy beaver on Sun
day to take up collections for the heathen
and passes by the Greek seated on its door
SILL
It is humane and hollow as a gourd Of a
a dozen summers. Its hollowness is shown
in every department of life, and just now the
talk of Wholesome system of Ethics in trade
is painfully illustrated. The aduteration in
articles of food has been shown by European
and American chemists to be perfectly fright
full al.- ...
We read one of these books, ''What We
Eat for example, and put it down with the
shudder that a man feels after examining a
drop of water for the first time through a
powerful microscope We find that it is a
very dangerous business to sit down to dinner,
especially if a bottle of wine be added to the
indulgence. a
These general truths have just had a con-
spicuous and melancholy illustration in the
case of the poisoned -four produced by the
economy of New York miller.
1t seems incredible that he could have been
ignorant of the danger of using white lead,
and it is regarded as singular, that while hun
dreds Of persons in that region were poisoned
| - .le -a,a,r Ground by this - of
stones, that his own family and the mill hands
should have been entirely exempt. The in
ference is, that they used different variety.
But, be this as it may, the moral of the story
is found in the fact that retributon is about
to overtake this man, who, through false
and cruel economy, mended the stones of his
mill with deadly poison Suits for DANA
ges have already been instituted against him
to the amount of $4,000 damages and the
actions, it is said, will be counted by scores.
The result can be plainly foretold. His
wealth will be devoured; the "Philipsbury
Mills" will be avoided in market, and the
criminal penny-wise policy of THOMAS NASH
will prove, in the end, to be pound foolish.
There is world of meaning in this story
for manufacturers, and, indeed, for all trades
and pursuits, which we trust will not be lost
upon the country. l.t t45 i&H

trate or defeat us, belong to the common
enemy, and as such will be dealt with. AS
we know how to recognize the services of our
friends, so also do we know how to punish
the depredations of our foes.
The New York World says:-The invasion
of Canada has come to a speedy and inglori-
Gus end. After speedy and gallant fight on
Saturday, in which the Fenians did no dis
credit to the Irish reputation of uncalculating
courage, they retreated to the Niagara rive
before nightfall, made themselves drunk by
| liquor taken on empty stomachs in the early
part of the night, lost their resolution before
morning, ATTEMPTED to recross to the American
side, were captured in the attempt by Uni
ted States authorities in whose custody they
remain. The first act of this drama, conceiv-
ed in folly, displaying gallantry in its pro-
gress, ends in fzzle to be followed probably
by a tragedy.
We trust the Fenians will be admonished
by the failure of this second attempt to for
bear any repetition of a similar enterprise.
1t has now been sufficiently demonstrated
to them that our Government will resolutely
interpose its authority the moment they be-
gin to act, and as the leaders can have nc
reasonable hope of success, why should they
continue to play upon the feelings and peril
the lives of the honest Irish masses?
Those respected and faithful friends of Ire.
land, the Catholic clergy, have regretted and
discountenanced this movement from the be-
ginning, and It is to be hoped that their wise
discussions may now at length be needed

A Conclusive Argument.

If any man questioned for moment the
n, cessity for Mr.. HARDY's retirement from
representative trust, we can remove from his
mind every shadow of doubt by the simple
statement that this gentleman is now in Eu-
rope. The fact that one of the delegates of
this city can go abroad without his constitu-
ents missing him, or inquiring of his where
abouts, is worth all the argument on this sub
ject which the press, or the Ward meetings
could bestow upon it.
We have no doubt, however, that on his
return, he will take steps alike becoming his
own character and the wishes of his constitu-
ents. -

"The Leng-Looked for Come at Last

The Ephesus has at last arrived. In an
other column will be found an account of her
arrival in our harbor and misadventures en-
route for Norfolk. The entering wedge has
at last been driven. 1t is tough piece of
timber which receives it, but with energy
upon our part it can be made up into boards,
out of which many man can build himself
comfortable habitation. We have good rea-
con for this belief
LIST, British capital, which is directed by
the most consummate sagacity, has decided on
the venture. This same capital has covered
every sea from the tropics to the poles with
its ships, and the simple fact that it has Sc
lected Norfolk as point of approach, shows
that our unrivalled natural advantages are ap-
preciated abroad

South was maintained with England through
the port of Wilmington, and found to be large

by rail which reach as far as the Mississippi
river in one direction, and by rail and water
southwark to the most fertile parts of the

4th, Shipments when made from Norfolk
will go to Liverpool, less the transportation
from this point and charges incurred there to
New York, leaving this economy in our favor
as so much to the account of the shipper from
this port
6th The large and increasing denland for
immigrants must seek its means of supply
through some foreign steamers-the more d.
rect the better; and the various societies in the
State will aid this line as the means at hand
9th, Our natural commercial allies Of North
Carolina are seeking an outlet for their pro
duee; and finally we all appreciated the inn
portance Of drawing sterling bills against our
expectations.
1t is to be lamented that the full cargo col
lected by Col. Lamb for this magnificent ship
has been withdrawn from his capacious ware
houses in consequence of her delay But, we
trust and believe that the old legal maxim
that the act of God Injuries no man will APP
ply in this case. al. ..ss
Norfolk and Portsmouth have their destiny
at stake on this enterprise, and we hope the
merchants of both towns and their country
correspondents will come forward to the sup
port of an enterprise which is fraught with
such grave importance to US all With the
slightest energy its success is beyond a perad-
venture.

Another Reason why we shaula O,

A.
The Consul at Hamburg has informed the
State Department that there are l5o, 900 peo-
pie in Germany actually booked for passage
to this country, MANY of these are repre-
sented to be of the chest class of society,
with hard coin in their pockets, and able to
pay their way. From England Scotland,
and Wales, the numbers seeking homes on
our shores are also very large, and likely to
increase. a1
Periodically, in all dense societies, there
comes time when population presses on
subsistence, and then it is that the war be-
tween capital and labor assumes its most seri-
GUS proportions. This pressure in the United
Kingdoms is likely to be severe, from two
causes. The rinderpest has done incaculable
injury to the grazing Interest by the destruc-
ton of stock, and the price of subsistence has
consequently increased. In addition to that,
the tendency to establish sheep and cattle
ranges, which :. in the last decade absorbed
$4,000 small holdings, will be greatly stimu-
lated; and undsr the combined effect of these
two causes, better class Of immigrants win
come from England, than we have ever before
received, Ireland is also sending out i'm
mense numbers of her peasantry; and the
New World gives the Old safety valve bet
ter than any suggested by Mr., MALTUHs, or
any other philosopher who ever considered the
great question of population,
Now, at the first blush, it might seem that
this immense tide of immigration would be
very good excuse for us to leave our society
to vegetate, until the blessed day when it can
obtain its minimum of authorized capital to
start with l'l.
1t may strike some of us that the great law
Of supply and demand, left to its own opera
tions, will drop into our lap the golden apple
for which we have SO long waited
But, we do not hold to this opinion. Grant
it, however and it shows us but another Tea.
son for an organized. intelligent, and imme-
date effort in this direction The necessity
originates iu the fact that we should exercise
wise discrimination in the introduction of
people who are hereafter to become citizens Of
the State of Virginia. ......-....
We require, above the North and West, to
be cautious, for the texture of our society is
such that community of language, and to
some extent of blood and tradition, is of grave
importance to US. The English. Scotch,
Welsh, and Irish, are people with whom we
have more in common than the races of con-
tinental Europe, They will be able TO assim-
ilate to our laws, to comprehend our senti-
ments and to adopt our modes OF thought
much more readily than those who are igno-
rant of our language, and are not likely to
acquire it, for more than the most ordinary
uses, in generation. r.. .s1.sr7 2.
