cprr,Ey AND BIS FAM1LY-The New York
Tribune recently contained an article which
it is hard to reconcile with any degree OF
conscience or decency in the writer. Who
ever he ia, he only shows his own lament
able deficiency in every trait that constl-
tutes a gentleman, and his unfitness to ex-
ercise the profession of q journalist. The
malignity of the article in question is only
eoualed by it's imbeciiity. 1t would not

New York correspondent that some mem
beers of Mr.. Greeleys family were Catholics.
II seems almost incredible that the individ-

bear-the relation of father and brother to
Catholics. If the fact be so, then the au-

EARLY cHRrIANIrY IN IRELAND.

When the missionary labors of the great
St Patrick were brought to close, his
disciples undertook to carry on the noble
work their master had SO gloriously inaugu-
rated. While many We're thus engagei IN
advancing the cause of Christianity in Erin,
hosts of others. actuated by that apostolic
zeal which has ever characterised them,
left their country to bear the message OF
truth into such of those continental nations

and hearts of the entire population; the
ecclesiastics, being impelled, as 1t We're, by
| a force they could no resist, went 1orth TO
| instruct and evangelize the world. The
snccess which crowned the labors of the
missionaries at home lie, perhaps, without a
| narallel in the history of Christianity. The

island which had not received the t1dlngs
from the lips of the apostle hlmseh the
consequence being the conversion OF the
entire population to the Christian faith.

sanctuaries. Irish ecclesiastics became as

a long time the workmen and bricklayers

HOME, SWEET HoME.-An Irish Bsile's
Last Glimpse Of Home.-Instances have
occurred in the south of Ireland where the
lineal descendants of the most distinguished
houses have labored from day to day, for
precarious support, on the land over which
their ancestors exercised unlimited sovers
eighty. A pathetic incident connected with
the MacCarthys has such claims on the
feelings, that will mention it. A consid-
cradle part of the forfeited estates of that
family, in the county Cork, was held by
Mr.. s., about the middle of the last century.
Walking over one evening to his domain,
he observed a figure, apparently asleep
at the foot of an aged tree, and, upon ap-
preaching the spot, found an old man
extended upon the ground, whose audible
sobs proclaimed the severest affection. MT.
s. inquired the cause, and was answered !:
"Forgive me, sir !; my grief is idle, but to
mourn is relief to the desolate heart and
humble spirit. L am a MacCarthy, once
the possessor of that castle in ruins and Oh
Fthis ground. This tree was planted by my
own hands, and have returned to water
it's roots with my tears. Tomorrow sail
for Spain, where 1 have been an exile ana
an outlaw since the Revolution. am an
, old man, and tonight, probably for tne
: last time, bid farewell to the place OF my
, birth and the home of my foretathers."
