What Shall be Done with Unhappy Ireland ?

The New York T ines says: 1t may be
hard 10 deal with a people as impatient
and suspicious as the Irish. They are a
race of rare, and in some respects,
troublesome qualities. Quick, lively,
mercurial, irrascible, full of Imagination
and poetry-proud of their old kings,
who Warred upon the Dane and Norman,
of their priests, who carried the cross in
the triumph from coast to coast long be-
fore the Saxon had ceased to worship
strange gods in Druid groves-proud of
chiefs like O'Neill, of soldiers Ike Sars-
field and wellington, of orators like Grat-
tan and Burke, OF poets like Goldsmith
and Moore. In every country but their
own, Irishmen have risen to be kings
among men. 1t seems as il some enchant-
ment hung over this strange island, that
the home it offers is misery and poverty.
and that tho Irish character only finds
true life under alien skies The men who
cross the seas to sit in the councils OF Ma
polson, TO COMMAND armies against Fred
erick, 10 be marshals and statesmen in
Spain, TO rule in America with the rigor
of Jackson, ana show in war the genius
of Sheridan, are mere rebels and outcasts
in their own country, only to be ruled
with the hard scepter of Cromwell, or the
stern and wicked dominion of martial
law.
What is the enchantment that hangs
over this strange island?" II is q pleas
ant belief that st. Patrick delivered Ire
land from all the snakes, and if there
was any satanic spell upon it, we may
suppose the patron saint of Ireland, while
he had his hand IN, would have exercised
the old serpent of all from the country,
and not left his & Rn favorite nation in the
condition OF the herd of swine, into whom
the devils, dispOssessed from the rest OF
l,a r.r11 loot
ing the whole island on the road to ruin,
The enchantment under which IRE
land labors is misgovernment." The
same enchantment will produce the
same effect upon any other people. The
Times sees the difficulty, and saws that
" il England would win the love and obe-
dience of the men, it must treat them
with forbearance and charity and liberal
minded craftsmanship. The sword will
never pacify Ireland. Cromwell tried il,
and 50 did Marlborough, and Mr.. Glad
stone should remember that if two of
Engiands greatest soldiers failed to make
lasting peace by the sword, there is an
evil far beyond its reach. Terror is an
old, old story, and all that terror
has done for Ireland has been to
add TO its misery and give its peo-
pie new reason for hating the
English name and rebelling against the
English rule. Put. away the sword
says Riehelieu; States can be saved
without it." History teaches no truer
lesson, and we commend il 10 the Illus
trioUs and enlightened statesman who
presidas over the destinies of the British
Empire" We also commend it to the
statesmen who preside over the destinies
OF tine American Empire. The Congress
of the United States, in ITS dealings with
the South, cannot do better than bear in
mind this " lesson"

RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
Three Freight Cars Fall lnlO the River.

BY a dispatch received in this city yes
terday afternoon, says the Knoxville
Press and Herald of the Sd inst, we learn
that a railroad accident occurred to a
freight train on the East Tennessee and
Virginia Railroad, at an early hour yes
terday morning.
The train was crossing the Wat2uGa riy-
er, at Carter's Station, L miles above
JonesbOro. The river at that point is very
rapid, and the bridge, new one, about
100 yards long, is so feet above the water.
The train was composed OF an engine
and seven freight cars. Through some
cause, the foremost freight ear ran of the
track, causing all the other cars to run
oil. The first four ears remained on the
bridge, but the other three after running
on the side of the bridge for some dis
tance, finally ran off and were precipi-
tated in the river. 50 feet below, dragging
a great portion of the bridge into the
stream.
Aid was at once procured and every ef-
fort made to repair the bridge and recover
the contents of the three cars.

Allen and Mace to Fight Again - Their
Weight and Points.

The st. Louis Republican says: Allen
and Mace are old acquaintance, both
raised in England, both possessing the
average amount of pluck characteristic
of the prize-ring stock. Mace was born
in Norwich, England, in 1881, and Allen
was born in the year'lS4I. This gives AL
len ten years the advantage in point of
age. When in good trim, or ready for the
ring, Mace weighs about 1S3 and Allen
1856 pounds. This gives Allen an advan-
tage Of three pounds weight. Mace
stands five feet ten and half inches in
mis- stockings, and Allen five feet nine
and a half inches. Taking it altogether
the match may be considered a fair one.
Both have fought at different times VIM.
Thorp, POsh Prince and Joseph Goss, and
both have whipped them. So again in
this respect they are even. Mace's prop
osition to obtain a belt from his New York
friends to put up against Aliens champi-
on belt is not listened to. The fight must
be, aside from the money mentioned
above, the championship of America on
the part of Allen against the champion
ship OF England claimed by Mace TO be-
long to him. This makes it a sort of in
ternatiOnal knOck-down give-and-take ar
rangement inside OF a twenty-four foot
ring. Allen says he means business in
the affair, and nothing else, and has per
feet confidence in whipping Mace in a
short time.

THE COUNCIL.
Scenes sHd incidents of the Opening Din
neTs aad Concerts Thieves at Work.

The home correspondent of the New
York Herald SAYS: All sorts Of anecdotes
are in circulation respecting the Conpcil
and events connected with 1t. The cress
carried before the Fathers of the Council
in the inauguration procession was pre-
sented TO the Pope by the recent Scotch
convert to Catholicism, Marquis of Butte.
II is in the style of the thirteenth century,
and represents Christ in glory, wearing a
royal crown, enriched with jewels. The
TiCh clasp worn on the POpe's breast on
the same occasion was made by order OF
Pope Benedict Mi. (Of the GrSini fam
ily), in l725. Ii is mounted with Jewels of
great value, and represents the Holy
Spirit with Outspread wings in rays of
glory. That Pontitf wore it for the first
time on opening Roman council at St..
John Lstersn. The bronze statue of ST..
Peter-formerly, il is said, pagan statue
Of Jupiter-on the right of the principal
entrance TO The Council Hall, was crowned
on the opening day with a iewelled tia-a,
and clothed in Fontificial dress and orna-
ments complete. 4 rich ruby ring was
on his finger, aud his left hand bore a
golden key sparkling with diamonds. A
golden lamp, and four colossal wax tapers,
adorned with miniature paintings, were
lighted before the statue. Two Of the
massive candlestlcls were gilt, presents
to the apostle from Plus IX the other
two, of bronze, were offered by Cardinal
Mattel, Archbishop OF st. Peters.
Some of the Bishops lost their gold
chains ana crosses In the procession.
These massive decorations are of some
value, and must have excited the pug
ging tooth" OF more than one pickpocket.
One cross was found in the church and de-
posted at the Office of the Observatoire
Romano, where it was claimed by its
owner, the Bishop of Minis. But the
Bishop of Curtaveccha and CornetO is
still ia search OF his lost chain and cross.
Entertainments, more or less connected
with the Council, are going on in various
palaces and religious establishments.
The French Embassy is a scene of con-
tinasl diplomatic dinners and soirees in
honor Of eminent ecclesiastics In general
and French ecclesiastics in particular.
Prelates of particular countries are feasted
in their respective ecclesiastical colleges.
There was grand banquet the other
evening at the North German College in
