IRELAND's FUTURE.
FROM LECTURE BIZ FATHeR BURKE IN REPLY
TO MR.. FRoUDE. Gs


My friends, there must be future What
is that future? Well, my friends--frst oil
all, 10Y American Grand Jury, you must re-
member that am only monk not man OF
the world, and do not understand much
about these things; and there arc wiser
heads than mine, and l will give you their
opinion. There 10 particular class OF men
love her sincerely. There 10 q particular
class OF men who love Ireland, and think, in
their love for Irelans, thatifev she is to be
freed 1t is by insurrection. by ris!ng in arms
men who hold that Ireland is enslaved. II
you will. Well. if the history which Mr..
Froude has given. and which have atem pt
ed 20 review, teaches us anything, it caches
us, as Irshmen, that there is no use appeal
| in o the sword. or to armed ins directions
in Ireland. Mr.. Proud says that, to succeed
there are two things necessary; namely
union as one man, and a determ nation not
to sheathe that sword until the work 10 done
know that would earn louder plaud,ts,
citizens Of America, and speak more popu-
lar language in the ears of my auditors, IL I
were to declare my adhesion TO this class of
lrishmen. But there is not livinr man
that loves Ireland mere dearly than | do.
There are those who may We her more fer
vently, and some love her with greater dis
tnction. But there is no man living that
loves ireland more tenderIy or more sincere
ly than I do. prize, cuZens Of America,
the good will of my fellow Irishmen; prize
it next TO the gracs food. l aIso prize The
popularity which, however uuworthiiy,
possess with them. But l tell you, Amcri-
an citizens, for all that popularity. for all
that good will, would not compromise one
iota of my convictions, nor would I state
what do not believe to be true. I do not
believe IN lnsurrectionary movements IN a
country so divided as Ireland
There is another class Of Iriahmen who
hold that Ireland has a futures glorious
future; that that future is 10 be wrought out
in this way They say-and, / think, with u
good rIght-that wealth, acquired by indus
try, brings with 1t power n nd political Influ-
ence They say, therefore, To the Irish at
home, "Try and accumulate wealth; lay
hold otindustry; develop the resources of
your country try in the meantime 10 effect
thSt blessing of union, without which there
can never be future for Ireland That un-
ION can be Effected by largeness of mind, by
generosity and urbanity toward your fellow
citizens; by rising above the miserable blg-
otry that carries religious differences and re-
/ ligious hAireds into relations Of life that
don't belong to religion. .t
an aan ime," they cay to the men of Ire
land, "try to acquire property, wealth and
tkis can only be done by psacetuI, assiduous
industry; and tina. Industry can only be ex-
erclsed SD long AS q country is at peace, so
long as here is truce TO violent politIeal az
itatior. !" Til n. thess men say again to the
Irishmen in America, "Men OF Ireland in
can birth but of Irish blood, We believe that
Gud has largely intrusred the destiules OF
Ireland to you. America demands of her
citizens only energy, industry, truthfulness,
Temperance, obedience TO the law
| Accordingly, the mau that Las these cannot

and power-sipoIitical influence anG power
which IN few years is destined to overshad-
ow the whole world, and to bring about

the cause o. honor and the cause OF hum NJ

Irishmen. Now, tell you caudldIy, that,
