which has been quiet for centuries, is in vic.

earthquakes, destroying villages in that vicinity,

Prussia as to any particular anxiety for the
success of the French arms. Whatever the
cause may be, the Irish have committed them
selves for Napoleon, and at a meeting of
French citizens held last night in New York,
a gentleman with the fine old Hibernian pa
tronymic of Tooley made the magnificent
offer of one million Irishmen to go to the aid
of France in case the Germans in this coun-
try should be encouraged by the United
States Government to lend their assistance to
Prussia The Frenchmen present greeted
Tooleys proposition with cheers and
cries of 'Long live Ireland!" and Tooley
probably felt just as if he had nothing more
to do than go to the front door and whistle,
and the million of Irishmen would march
round the corner ready armed and equipped
for an instantaneous march to the seat of war.
This grand promise of aid to France was
about on par with most of the promises
that France has made to Ireland, and was
worth about as much. If Ireland waits for
her independence until France sets her free,
she will languish in her fetters until the day
of Judgment; and if Napoleon cannot whip
Prussia without the aid of Mr.. Tooley's mil
lion Irishmen, he had better conclude peace
on any terms as soon as possible

party s being formed in Russia, whose object is to
overthrow the political organization OF the empire,
but not, like that Of former parties, to effect
this by means OF socialist agita-
tion. The new paper strongly protests
ae ainst this policy, urging that the
cause Of Russa's weakness a State is not the
political servty OF the people, but the false princi
Piles on which the emancipation OF the serfs has been
based and the consequent distress Of the agrcultu-
raj population. 1t thinks that both Russia and the
European countries are rapidly advancing towards a
social revolution, which can alone secure the we'll
being Of the laboring classes and that such revo-
luton could be most easily organized in Rus
sia, where it would also have the best chance Of
success.

IRISH S YlMPATHY FOR FRANCE.

IRISH y HIMPA III Y FOR FRANCR.
EXACTLY why Irishmen should have an affec-
tion for the French, except on the principle
that both are the natural enemies of England
and that it will excite the wrath of the Bull
family to see an afiliation between the Gaul
and the Celt, is a problem that is beyond the
comprehension of the average human under
standing. France has done nothing what.
ever towards effecting the liberation of Ire
land beyond making plenty of promises,
and although the proverb says, ''Soft
words butter no parsnips," Pat is particularly
susceptible to blarney, and sweet promises
go long way with him. In the present
fight between France and Prussia, the
Irish profess to see indications OF a
chance to strike a blow in their own
behalf, although it is not easy to comprehend
how they will go about it. The Irish enthu-
sissm for France, however, in this country,
is probably due quite as much to the moral
support which the Germans are giving to

THE RUSSIAN Inpalid publishes some information
on the cultivation OF cotton in Central Asia. In the
vicinity of Taschkend it says there large cotton
fields, and the American cotton plant has also been
lately grown there though yet with little success
The best cotton in Central Asia that produced in
Bokhara some sorts OF which nearly equal in
quality to American cotton. A great deal of cotton
is also cultivated in Khokand and especially in
Khiva; there are also few fields in Northern
Turkestan. The value of the cotton OF Bokhara is
much diminished by the insufflciency of the mate
Tias used in cleaning 1t. Its price at Taschkend is
now roubles SO kopecs about las per pound. Rus
sia imports from the above countries large quanti-
ties OF raw cotton part Of which is sent back manu-
factured. The importation OF cotton is now nine
times great as it eleven years ago. The total
quantity produced in Central Asia is upwards OF
100000 pounds OF which 10000 come from Box
hara, 5e0.000 from Khiva, SOC, 900 from Khokand,
and 100000 from the countries on the Amoo-Darya.
A STEAM PAyNG-MACHIHE has recently been intro
duced in Paris, and made use of by the municipality
for the repair OF the streets there. This machine
which 1t is hoped may ultimately prove useful as
the steam-roers so much used in Paris, consists OF
a small steam engine on wheels, drawn by one
horse, to the rear OF which is attached
the 'payiour" which places the clumsy old
hand-Inachne still in use with US. This
''paviour," which is forced upon the ground with
great force 10y blow from the piston somewhat on
the principle of steam-hammer), slides ON a bar
some six feet long, and thus be directed by the
driver to any stone which requires forcing home.
The machine is now at work In the Rue de Grenelle,
st. German, and is considered a success, although
some slight improvements and alterations to be
made in it. The workmen, it is hardly necessary TO
state declare that it is dead failure they always
do Of any new machine.
