LONDON, March 2l.-John Bright speaking ia
favor Of establishing the Irish Church, said l.:
=" Nations never forget their religious grievances
until the cause Is removed. The old policy pur-
sued by England rendered ireland more ultra

Catholicism was not only matter OF faith, but of
patriotism, for which the Irish ready to suffer
or die If need be. Since, the Union disturbances
have been continual. Professionalism was the
only fire that was destroying everything that was
noble and good in Ireland. resulting in tue abso-
lutte disappearance of peace and loyalty. The
lrsbmen who had emigrated to the United States.
and Australia were watching snxiously the result
OF this great question. The entire Fenicn project
was fed and kept alive by the sympathy Of Ameri-
cans under the impression that England never did
justice TO Ireland. There were no bi.tSrer foes
to England in the United States than tae Irish

Mr.. C. then pointed out to Us the location of the
various pits that have been used since the dis
coyery Of the salt bed was made. He then gave
us the following interesting account, as gwen py
the mining bureau, showing the manner 10 winch
the discovery was made and seVersi ,mpor's AM
more primitive springs:
So far as known the discovery of the salt was
made in l791 by John Hays, who found q spring
while hunting. Soon afterwards, Jesse McCaul
bought nineteen acres of land, including this salt
spring, and began the manufacture OF salt by
boiling. The supply was too limited, however, 10
psy the expenses Of the operation, and, after dig
eing several wells with little success, he aban-
doned the enterprise. The springs were then neg
Iected until 1917, when the price of salt rose to
such q height, in consequence OF the war with
Great Britain that John G. Marsh renewed the
production, continuing till 1910, when the price
fell again, and he suspended his operations.
"Judge ID. d. Avery, who ubsequently became
owner Of the island, commenced boiling again
during the year 1861. when salt had become dear
by reason Of the blockade. For the purpose OF
Increasing the supply of brine, Mr.. John Marsh
Avery, his son, attempted to deepen the wells.
and, at the depth of Is to IL feet, on the 4th OF
May, 1862 struck the solid rock-salt. Mining Dy
means of pits was soon introduced under the aus
pices of the Confederate government. The order
In which the pits were opened, and other particu-
lars concerning this period Of activity. are given
in a statement in the appendix. Mining continued
until an expedition, sent by General Banks, by
way Of New Iberia. attacked the island. April IL,
1868, and destroyed the works on the 10th Of the
same month. .
The amount of salt removed during these
eleven months, according to Judge Avery's state
ment, was twenty two millions OF pounds. From
tour TO six hundred men are said to have been
working, day and night, in mining. barreling and
leading the salt in wagons. From one to five
hundred teams are reported to have beeu at one
time on the island, coming from every Southern
State. and waiting for asupply. The pits were
worked by the owners. the government aud con.
tractors. The average price Of the salt was A
cents pound.
"The large pits remaining as the results Of
this extraordinary activity not only useless for
any rational system of mining, but. by admitting
quicksand and water. may become sources of
great Inconvenience, unless carefully filed up, or
converted into shafts"
The pits mentioned above number eleven. and
are ell close together, not extending over more
than l44 acres, from which we have deduced the
known area of the salt bed. The following table
win show the depth at which salt was struck and
the depth in salt reached in each pit:

THE wall.Street Game.

The London newspapers don't understand
the gamblers in Wall street. They wonder
that millionaires should upset all financial
order when their own wealth should give
them the greatest interest in its preserva-
ton. The London papers should kno"
that many of the millionaires have accumu-
lated their gains by financial disorder. In
the ups and downs of paper money ana
stocks they have acquired their wealth,
and gamblers like they can't keep out
of the game by which they have thriven.
IF panic won't come naturally, why they
will make one by strategem. 1t is all the
same so it is q panic, and the stocks and
grecnbacks begin to hopu and down as the
gamblers pull the strings. AS for ultimate
security they rely on Government, and
are sure it will redeem its promises. with
that ultimate assurance they go to work and
would be happy to reduce Government
credit for the time as low as Confederate
bonds in March 1865, no matter how much
misery their tricks may occasion. The en-
barrassment of commerce and the ruin OF
many thousands Of men better than them
selves are nothing to them. They have no
honesty, no moral sensibility, and are not
ut all disturbed by the walls of nation.
There must be some uncommon wrath III
store for these rascals.

Ropuery to be Investigated.


The Herald gives an ON dit that the Presi-
dent and Mr.. boutwell, will urge Congress
to inquire into the late gold ring operations
and the affiliations Of the ring. We doubt
the propriety Of such a proceeding. Con-
gress is bad enough. There is no telling
what schemes will be Matched up between
\ congressional committee and the ring. We
know that all people are better off when
not tempted, and we know that Congress is
no better than the generality Of mankind.
We fear the consequences Of unwilling
the schemes Of Wall street to such body
of men. The ring will be translated to Con-
gress, and before year passes there win be
congressman in close communication with
the Wall-Street tiger, sharing his gains, and
favoring his operations, if possible, by legis-
lation. Better that the two bodies be kept
apart. Their conjunction will be fatal. The
rings in Congress are numerous enough
already.
No, let Wall street alone. AS long as we
have such paper system as we have we
must expect speculations in gold and COM
bats between the bulls and bears. If Fede-
raj finances are wisely managed there will
be check upon the gamblers. But there
will be no effectual stop put to their atroci-
ties until there is q resumption Of specie
payments.

The Fair.
selection.

We cannot but believe that the Fair now
being held is fraught with the best results
for the agriculture of the State. There will
be a great many things exhibited that will
throw light upon farming interests. and
the interchange of opinion after the lapse
of so many years must be highly beneficial.
Just as there is going on revolution in the
system Of domestic economy it is most OPP
perfume that such meeting should be had ;
and its benefits will be lasting.
The prospect of the early admission of the
State into the Union relieves the minds of
the farmers, imparts cheertulness amongst
them, and enables them to devote them
selves with zeal to the work Of improve
ment. Therefore we anticipate happy
meeting for them, and the best results from
their intercourse and their investigations.

The discussion of the question of COM
pulsory vaccinations renewed in England;
and in this country the question of the adj
vantases of vaccination has been taken up
with much zeal, rs our readers know. \
writer in the Westminster ReUieac attributes
many injurious effects to diseased vaccine
matter, through syphilitic faint existing in
thelymph. He shows by abundant statistics
how widespread is the terrible malady from
which this poison is derived, and thinks
that but little establishment should be felt at
the resistance on the part OF parents in
England to compulsory vaccination.
No one raises question as to the diminu-
ton OF the number Of cases of smallpox
after the introduction of the discovery Of
JENNEE. In our own country it is seldom
heard of outside of populous cities. Yet,
il such matter alone was obtainable as has
produced the widespread faint amongst the
population Of England, or even if the dam
ger of falling victim to such was great, it
would be better that vaccination should
cease altogether; in which event it would
be consolation to know that there has
been such an Improvement in the mode
Of treating smallpox that it is robbed
Of much of its horror. But assuredly such
measures might be employed by the faculty
as to make it nearly, ii not quite, certain
that the matter used was pure or untainted
with loathsome disease. The question was
discussed by DR.. BACON before the Social
Science Congress, in New York, last week.
His statistics went to show the great bene-
hts Of vaccination in preventing smallpox,
and he strenuously urged the adoption OF
measures to encourage vaccination, sus-
costing, among other things, bureau OF
gratuitous vaccination in every State.

THE VANDERBILT BRONZE GROUP is to be
unveiled on the 10th Instant. Governor
HorrMAS is to preside on the occasion. The
group is placed at the entrance to the
Hudson River railroad in st. Johns Park.
A great many distinguished names are en-
listed for the occasion, including states
men, stockholders, bankers, steamboat
owners, &c. Probably Captain WANDER
BILr will be there himself; for he may, like
the culprit going to be hanged, say to the
hurrying throng that there will be no fun
until he gets there This VANDERBILT group
is q peculiar affair. The man in whose honor
it purports to be erected has the pleasure of
seeing ,t-a pleasure not enjoyed by most
men whose deeds are applauded by monu-
ments. But Captain Vanderbilt has a yet
greater pleasure even than this peculiar
one-he not only sees it done, hut it is sup
posed that he pays for it too Ia thing which
few, if any, of the heroes honorcd by man
kind ever had money enough to do. What
happy man He makes sure of the monu-
ment by seeing it built himself. Had the
Captain been such fool as to die before it
was erected the world might never have
seen it at all. Captain VANDERBILT does not
mean to be cornered" in this way even
by death.

Reconstruction.

The most reliable information just re
ceised here, verbally, from washington is
entireIy corroboratory of what we have Sc
yeral times had from the Federal city. Nr-
ginia is TO recommended, and her aamis-
sion asked for; and, furthermore, 1t VIII De
reouested that this admission be "prompt.'
This is the sentiment and purpose OF the
administration. General GRANT is pleased
with Virginia, and so are the heads OF De-
partments. We mention especially Mcssrs.
HoAR and Boutwell,, as they are considered
to represent the ultramontanism OF the
Cabinet in politics. Mr.. HoAR is said to be
indignant at the absurd movement of the
little knot Of destructives in this city In
protesting against the admission OF Virginia
save under the abominable iron-clad :"
oath. Their conduct is considered lmpu'
dent and incendiary, and dictated by she
most selfish and sordid motives. the most
pronounced Republicans in the capital are
disguised with their inscriptions ana
shameless conduct.
We never for a moment doubted the
prompt admission of Virginia as soon as she

sionate and practical man could say that
there was any other course left to her. She
had that or the continuation of the mon
strous half military, half civil. government
which now is curse upon us. Who could
think for moment of submitting to the
latter day longer than we are compelled
to? But there was a yet more terrible fate
behind the monster government now in ex-
istence in Virginia. Had the responsible
paople Of this State "coted do,rn" recon-
struction. measures would have been
promptly taken that would have placed re-
construction in the hands of the wretched
party that wanted to put US all under the
"iron-clad" oath, and then we would have
had time to repent, with plague upon
us to which those of Egypt were quite tol-
