A AENAdERIE or DRUNKARDs.-
The mos foolish predicament man
can get into il to get drunk. In
drunkenness a man shows his strong
est and most ardent passion. There
are six kinds OF drunkenness, and if
you will 60 into city drinking place
@here there are a dozen. men under
the influence of liquor, you will be
sure to find these six different AMI
mails
The first is ape drunk. lie leaps
and sings, and yells and dances, max
ing all sorts Of monkey shines to
excite the laughter ofhis fellows. Oh,
terribly silly is the drunken clown.
The second is tiger drunk. He
breaks the bottles, breaks the chairs,
breaks the heads Of his fellow carous-
ers, and is full OF blood and thunder
His eyes are fired with vengeance,
and his soul raves with murderous
fury. OF this sort are those who
abuse their families.
The third is hog drunk. lie rolls
in the dirt, on the floor, slobbers and
grunts, and going into the streets,
makes his bed in the first ditch or fill
thy corner he may happen to fall in
to. He is heavy, lumpish and sleepy,
ard cries in a granting way for lit
tie more to drink.
The fourth is puppy drunk. He
will weep for kindness, and whine his
love, and hug you in his arms and kiss
you with his slobbery lips, and pro-
claim how much he loves you. You
are the best man he ever saw, and he
will lay down his money or life for
YOU
The fifth is owl drunk. lie is wise
in his own conceit. No man must
differ with him, for his word is law.
He is true in politics, and in matters
must be taken as authority. His arm
is the strongest, his voice is the sweet
est, his horse the feetest, his turnips
the largest, his town the finest of all
in the room or land.
The sixth ane last animal Of our
menagerie is the fox drunk man. He
is crafty, ready to trade horses and
cheat il he can. Keen to strike a
bargain, leering around with low cum
ming, peeping through cracks, listen
ing under the caves, watching for
some suspicious thing, sly as fox,
s1eaking as 3 wolf, he is the meanest
Of them all.

LONDON Liquor LAws.-A great
meeting was recently held in London
to take action against Sunday liquor
selling. The Lord Mayor presided,
and clergymen and laymen were
among the speakers. Archbishop
Manning, Catholic, made long adj
dress, taking ground that Sunday
liquor selling, besides being a viola
ton of the day, was especially bad
in it's effects in consequence of the
working men being at leisure and
having thcirpockets filled with wages
received the day before. lie urged
the examples Of the United States
and Scotland as showing that a clos
ing Of public houses on Sunday was
possible, and that their remaining
open was a deep blot on the reputa>
ton OF England.

MANIFESTO DE THE IRISH PEOPLE.
Upon considering our present posi-
ton, we have come to the following
conclusion in relation to our coun.
tryman in Ireland, in America, and
in every other quarter Of the world
where they are now dispersed.
English government has become
absolutely intolerable to as. We can,
not endure a state Of society in which
the commonest liberties of all men are
suspended,
We are unable to contend with our
oppressors in arms, and we turn to
the hope of mankind, the great Res
public of North America, in our diff
cultias.
v 9 ask to be admitted to the Anne.
rican Union, as a new State, having
our own local government, but send
ing representatives to Congress.
We are as near to New York and
Washington as New Orleans and
San Francisco, and we have become
50 thoroughly Americanized tht con
nection with England is no longer
tolerable or possible.
This is final and solemn resolve
upon full deliberation.
We solicit our countrmen through
out the American Union Immediate
ly to assemble and place this, the pc
tition Of five million of Irishmen in
due form before the president and
Cor gress of the United States.
Signed in behalf of the Irish peo-
