The London Examiner ANNOUNCES,
In a recent issue, that the present year
will see IN immense increase IN the
tide Of emigration TO America and our
colonies. Emigration has received u
great impetus from the movement
among the agricultural lnborcrs. "Fhe
Queensland government Is showing an
appreciation for field culture which our
English landowners and farmers will
perhaps regret when 1t Is too late. Ten
thousand laborers are offered n i'ree
passage and other advantages and we
feel sure that that number viii very
soon leave our shores in addition to
those for whom Canada and America
have superiority of attractions. Mean
while, in Dorset and elsewhere, the
most casual observer can already see
the effect of insufficient manual labor
There was not one laborer too many in
Dorset before the movement scom-
menced, and yet fully one thousand Of
its adults have now removed elseW mere
When il this exodus tostop? Not I'M
til the English land question assumes
its proper degree OF Importance,
Anxious rs we are 10 see that ques-
ton come to the front we can scarcely
regret this emigration, for surer way
of forcing attention to it was never
devised. Still, the condition of Ire
land, Notwithstanding its diminished
and diminishing population prevents
us from being too sanguine about the
effect that emigration will have on
thasc left behind, Joseph Arch, nc
companied by J. c. Cox, proposes to
visit Ireland ut the end of next week,
and their report of the condition and
prospects of the pc0santry will be
looked forward to with considerable
interest. 1t is idle to pretend to hide
the fact that Mr.. Gladstone's Irish aud
Irish land acts have failed TO remove
that disatlcction which is the natural
sequel of English policy, or the misery
which cries alold against our cen-
turtles of misrulc. The only policy
which can in any way check over
emigration, or cut ut the root of rural
misery in both countries, is n land act,
but one of much more advanced
nature than that with which the Wings
expected to stop the mouths of the
tenantry.n

Section three Is singulorly worded,

uary and July Of each year, IN the ely
of New York, and the principal shan
also be payable in the said city, on the
maturity Of said bonds, which shall be
received and taken at par'
Now, If the section had terminated
here, we would have drawn the infer
once that the question would have
been submitted to n vote of the people
TO learn their views upon the subject.
After having satisfied them as to the
estimated cost and character Of the
work, It's efficiency for the purpose
required, and many other things which
the people like to know before voting
subsidies or assistance to corporations.
But, the last paragraph of the section
reads:
"payments on said subscription TO be-
made in nstaIlments, az the
woyh progresses, and the 6ol(t'cc

BY this IL appears that the city i to

work is completed 10 learn II it be

stock is not like "llre Bailroad'

the concluding and final payment Is to

1 reads as follows:
"rhnt the city OF Dallas hereby
agrees TO guarantee the payment on
soueaiy-6rc Thousand do'tWS of ilrat
mortgage bonds Of tho aforesaid coat
pany," otc.
Thus il appears that after the city
shall have delivered her $4,000 worth
OF bonds, the individuals or company
which has received this franchise may
mortgage the works, the city guaran-
tceing payment Of interest on $4,000,
and as the work can well be done for
$4,000, it is just possible the city viii

SOCIETY HABIrs.-A New York paper,
not given to sensationalism, says in regard
to that city, that the use Of wine among
gentleman at parties has grown to such
magnitude that ifit is not banished, decent
women will not attend them, and that the
pernicious custom of furnishing and drink
ing it is sapping the foundation of social
morality. Through it young men are
becoming blackguards, and maidens forget
ting how to blush" Taking @ society 4"
to mean the fashionable, the most conspic-
uous, and in large degree the most infu-
entail portion of the community, this is
without doubt a true indictment. No
words can add to the seriousness which fall
upon every sound mind. and pervades every
pure heart, when the truth is fully realized.
That in the social gatherings of the sexes,
where youth are in the " numerical major
ity," where the buoyanoy of every life
should be sufficient inspiration, and where
every instinct naturally leads to frank
but normal exhibition of ones self, there
should be introduced fire as dangerous
as unnecessary, speaks as ill for the men,
tai resources as the moral sentiment ol
" society"

" That will depend upon the company,

rather severe tone of voice. '' l may have

Connor, as a friend, if mans wife wears
the small clothes at home, does that circum-
stance give her right to put her husband
into such an apology for them as she sent
me out with yesterday?
1t is a delicate matter to tender an opin-
ion, even when pressed to do SO, on subjects
matrimonial. therefore lodged my friend
question, end in general way commended
his idea OF joining the defenders of his coun-
try, though it were for no better reason than
that he might enjoy the privilege of wearing
his trousers at the Castle. As there is no
competitive examination for the militia SER
vice., nor any impertinent Inquiries about
spelling to be satisfied at Chelsea, there
seemed no doubt that his interest with the
county authorities might cas- lily procure for
him such distinction.

Vanished Nay.

Why is it that when Spring is come,
The first sweet touch of Spring,
That something all the winter dumb
Begins 10 me to sing?
Begins, perforce, this sunny day
To solemnize the darkened May?
Why the bird sings I know: | see
LIS journeys through the air;
There is nest in yonder tree
Its little ones are there.
Thy song, sweet bird is not like mine.
Bnt one amending Valentine

Above, below, around
The tribes that live on leaf and bark
And barrow in the ground

The word is full of happiness
Why is it, then, that | am sad ?

When every creature else is glad,
To lose the JOY of May?
" hy ask what | have lost? In truth,
w hat is the saddest loss but youth
My youth has gone, and what remains?
The woods, the clouds, the sea
The wild March winds, the sea
But what are these to me?
w hen head and heart alike are gray,
What can restore the vanished May?
