Irish Pride.

There is no land where the lines of exclusion, or
distinction of caste, nicely drawn than in Ire
land We could write books the reasons for hanging
out those clothes nes-or they lines of cloth
than merit Suffice to say, that what We condemn
miserable Irish pride national pride. When
nationality became obscured partly destroyed this
grand feeling degenerated into the miserable pride of
purse and family 1t is all owing to having nothing
nobler to pride in.
For centuries after the kings and chiefs were driven
out of their possessions their descendants contented
themselves with being of the old stock and royal blood
and hurting curses of hate and scorn on the Saxon,
when they should have hurled javelins and spears
him. This though futile and childish, was more
justifable than our latter day pride Of purse.
In Ireland, have the gentry, the shoneen, the
gentleman farmer the big farmer the middling farmer
the small farmer the coer the mechanic, the laborer
the chimney sweeps the rag pickers, the respectable
beggar and the common beggar, called the boccouyh,
whose scepter is the staff and whose family coat of

We published yesterday the details Of one
OF the terrible series OF hurricanes which
have swept over and desolated tho West
India islands. Our kilograms are proved to be
quite correct in general features, and The pic
lures OF wreck and death presented through
them are fully confirmed by our correspondence.
In Porto Rico the gale ragged with great fury.
More than three thousand six hundred families
were left destitute, and more than two hundred
persons were found dead after the storm had
passed. Plantations, coffee crops and ma
chincry were all ruined and the eastern districts
Of the island made desert The hurricane here
IL reported heavier than those which swept over
the island In 1925 and 1881. Among the poor
people who occupied huts In the fields the

Five lives were lost and q number Of passen-

described as horrible in the extreme. Four

Hon. James Brooks In a New Light.
Finally, the mountain has come to Mahomet.
Mr.. James Brooks, we suppose, stands where
he always did as to the Union, the constitution,
the war and the democracy but such have
been the queer freaks of the radicals in the
party maneuvres, that things have come round
SO far that the member from this city is able
to stand up in his place in Congress and oppose
ths admission Of radical member con the
the rebellion, had made speeches in behalf Of
it, had lent his aid and support to it, and had
made speech in which he urged young men
TO enlist in rebel company and defend their
homes and flresides.r It is Of no consequence
that some Of these points might be advanced
against Brooks himself II it were question on
bis admission. 1t indicates exactly how little
sincerity and honesty there is In rsdicalism,
that 1t is open to such an assault and it is
the funniest thing OF many sessions that man
with Brooks record should stop republican
member at the door Of the House with such
charges Mr.. Brooks also opposed the admis-
sion of the whole Tennessee representation on
the ground that Tennessee has not republi-
can form Of government The making this point
may perhaps open the eyes Of Sumner and
his adherents to the fact that this their great
argument on reconstruction may cut both
ways That, they said, is not republican
form Of government in which the negroes are
without votes and the whites WELD all the
power; but is that any more q republic in
which the whites are disfranchised and the
negroes WELD all the power? Here is ques-
ton that the people have answered pretty well,
and il Brooks pushes 1t smartly he may yet
make Congress understand it. II is to be hoped
that he will follow up with q will also his point
against the member, and keep the House pure
from the presence of rebels and those who
"aided and abetted" the attempt to "defend
Southern homes." He must feel queer in such
. position-but the republican viii feel still
more queer 70 see him there.

CsrrespeaAsnce. 4~.t-
II was long the reproaoh Of journalism ON this
side Of tho Atlantic that the correspondence Of
even the best journals in point Of general
ability fell FIR short OF tho correspondence Of
tho great London papers The war did much
to take from u this reproach. The impetus
then given has continued, and now II II not too
much to say that the correspondence which
from time to tue appears in the HERALD and
one or two Of the other papers on this Cont
nent Is quite equal to the best correspondence
OF the London Times or Of any journal in
the Old World Those who read in yesterdays
HERALD the letters of our special correspondent,
who was present at the late struggle between
the Garibaldini and the Papal troops, will
admit the correctness Of our assertions The
fhlness Of our special kilograms had, it Is true,
taken freshness from the correspondence; but
there are hundreds Of thousands who will read
and prize the letters for the fulness Of their
details and for the graphic character Of their
descriptions. It is manifest from the letters Of
our correspondent that Garibaldi had miscal-
culated. The whole affair, never promising
from the outset ended unhappily for Garibaldi
and for Italy.
The real merits Of this Italian question,
however, have not been affected by the failure
Of Garibaldi. Failure always brings to .
cause certain amount Of discreiit Had
Garibaldi been successful he would have been
worshipped as hero. Because Garibsldi has
failed he is loaded with disgrace. It is not to
be denied that the hopes Of the party of action
have for the present been blasted; but 1t is
not less true that the desire for the complete
unifcation OF Italy is now all over the PENN
sula more q passion than ever It Is sx-
ceedingly difficult to predetermine how the
matter is to be finally settled. The reluctance
evinced by the other Powers of Europe to take
part in general conference aggravates the
awkwardness of Napoleon's position. The
paragraph in the Queens speech on the occa-
sion of the opening Of the houses of Parliament
which referred to the Italian question encour-
aged the hope that the feelings Of the Italian
people would be respected and that lie French
occupation Of the Papal States woul not be
unnecessarily prolonged. A telegram which
we print in this days HERALD is not so reas-
surfing. The Italian people are greatly excited,
and the situation IS between the governments
Of Italy and France is critical in the extreme.

"MARRIAGE a LA MoDE E"-An
old Dutch farmer, just arrived ut the dignity
of the justice of the peace, had his first mar
riage case. He dshed it up in this way. He
first said to his man:
"Nell, you wants to be marrit do YOU ?
Loves dis woman SO goot us any woman you

YES" answered the man.
Then to tho woman:
'Vcll, do you love dis man so he4ter as
no man you never scc?"

"Vcll, ,voll, do you likes him so well as to

"Oh, certainly" she answered, with kind

"Vall, dat is all any reasonable man can cx-
pcct. So you arc marrit; pronounce you
