not, she pushed back the hammer with
her foot, and applied her mouth to the

the gun was discharged, killing her in

Ireland has been described as land Of extremes.
We fear that, to some extent the allegation must be
confessed to be founded in truth. Our country has
produced some of the best and greatest of men, but is

weary years of her humiliation and agony, under the
heels of foreign tyranny, this from first to last
The pure in SOUL and fearless in heart love her with
devotion which owns no higher attachments devotion
which inspires and governs their entire being, whether
in the loneliness of exile or the gloom of the dungeon
or amid the horrors of the scatfold And, alas the
false and VILE the vena and villainous have in every
age recorded in modern history revealed their hateful
presence among the children of unhappy country
and their work has been either to invite the invader to

TRADE.-The report of the President and
Directors of the Corn and Produce Exchange,
a synopsis of which We published yesterday,
was quite gratifying exhibit of the trade of
Alexandria for the past year, and gives us re-
newed hopes for the future; not foolish hopes
Of rapid increase, and sudden and brilliant i'm
rrovement and of chimerical results Of bust
ness operations, but of steady advance in our
commercial, manufacturing, and mechanical in
terests, by patience, prudence, industry, perse-
Verance and union among ourselves. The
thrift Of a city is the work Of men Of skill and
judgment, and of enterprise-ot solid, pains
taking reliable business men. Alexandria, has
been, since the war, laboring under many disad-
vantages; these are, we believe, being sur
mounted gradually, but surely. 1t is not by
mere speculation, but by well directed, consis-
tent, and continual energy, that the ebb tide
will turn and the food Of prosperity begin
again.
