The Irish in the american ReUO-
luton.

It is very generally supposed that in the
days of the American revolution the colo
nies were, with inconsiderable exceptions,
all English. This vas true to a great ex-
tent of Virginia and Other southern states.
But it appears that New England itself
contained large element Of 1iish. We
have recently referred to the statement of
the Irish World that a large body of New
England militia, that from New Hampshire,
at ths battle of Bunker Hill, was Irish.
The Chicago Tribune took exception to this
statement of the Irish World and said there
was no record of any extensive emigration
of Irishmcn 20 New Hampshire before the
revolution. The IRISH World shows that
there is such record recalls the settle
mept of Londonderry in 1719 10y colony
from Londonderry, Ireland, the sons of
which colonists largely made up the eight
hundred New Hampshire troops that
fought at Bunker Hill under Stark and
Reid, both born of Irish parents and then
reminds Americans that it is an error to
think that Irish emigration dates only from
the famine Of 1S45. The great tide of en-
igration TO this country, the World declares,
has always been the Irish. The Germans
nave IuduS INC ticii
coming had scarcely begun twenty five
years ago. An exception, however,
should be made in favor of the German
settlements in Pennsylvania and the
northern portion of Maryland.I In 17T
and 1772, 1850 emigrants from Ireland
reached America within 4 fortnight in
August of the next year, $500 from the
same island landed at Philadelphia. The
population of the colonies was more largely
increased from Ireland than from all other
nations in the years before the revolution,
and these men brought with them hostil-
ity to Great Britain which counted for
great deal when the struggle came. The
Irish names in the history of those days are
FREQUENT enough. Two at Bunker Hill
have been referred to and for the cannon
and powder used there the patriots are in
debted to John Sullivan, afterwards major
general, who committed whatthe historians
call the frs. overt act OF war in seiZing Fort
William and Mary at Newcastle, n. H.,
with its stores, the winter before. His
brother James Sullivan, afterwards govern
or Of Massachusetts,, was another active
patriot The first American commodore,
John Barry, was an Irishman, and it was
an Irishman. jeremiah o. Brien, who fought
and won the first naval action of the revo-
luton, off Machias. The eS, ,.ringtit Id Mass

AN ENGLISH CURE FOR DRUNKEN
NEss.-There is prescription in use in
England for the cure of drunkenness,
by which thousands are said to have
been assisted in recovering themselves.
The recipe came into notoriety thro'
the efforts of John Vine Hall, com
mander of the Great Eastern steam
ship He had fallen into such habitual
drunkenness, that his most earnest ef-
forts to reclaim himself proved una
vailing. At length he sought the adj
vice of an eminent physician, who gave
him prescription, which he followed
faithfully for seven months, and at the
end of that time had lost all desire for
liquor, although he had for many years
been led captive, which he afterward
published, and by which so many
drunkards have been assisted to re-
form, az follows: "Sulphate OF iron
five grains; magnesia, ten grains
peppermint water, eleven drachms
spirits Of nutmeg, one drachm twice
a day" This preparation acts as q
stimulcnt and tonic, and partially sup
plies the place of the accustomed IL
quor, and prevents that absolute ply
sicial and moral prostration that fol-
lows a sudden breaking from the use of
stimulating drinks.-Scientifc Amer-

AN EASY WAY TO DANISH Crows

AN EASY WAY TO DANISH Crows.
j. w Bliss, of Bradford, VT,
adopted a novel way to keep the crows
from his corn. few days ago he
found quite a flock busily engaged in
a twelve-acre lot belonging to him.
He procured a couple Of small spring
traps, such as are used in catching
muskrats, and set them some distance
apart between The rows, scattering
along few kernels of corn Not
long after he heard hubbub and cav
ing in the field loud enough to waken
the mythical seven sleepcre, while the
fence and trees near by were nearly
black with crows. He didn't trouble
them for q couple Of hours, though
they did him by their continual noise,
after which he released the two caught
in the traps. Since that time the
crows have given that field wide
berth, not having been seen in the i'm
mediate vicinity This way OF get
ting rid Of crows seems much prefer
able to shooting, as no northern bird
does SO much scayenger work as the
crow

A Word For the Women.

We do not hesitate to say that the average
woman, educated in the better class of
schools in this country, is better scholar,
and Il more capable and accomplished per-
son, than the average college graduate If
the other sex. What we want is cheaper
schools of an equal eNcelle' ce. The far
mcrs boy goes to college, finds cheap tut
ton, wins II scholarship perhaps, boards in
commons, earns money during vacation,
and gets tn ough, while his sister stay, Mt
home, because the only places whore she
can get an equal education ARE expensive
beyond her means There is no college
that needs to be so richly endowed us wo-
mans college. Women are not men, quar-
rel with the fact rs we may, and they can
not get along SO CGcaply and with such self
helpfulness rs men while going through the
processes Of their ed lcation. five are to
have womeu's colleges, we must have WELL
paid professors, philosophical apparatus,
cabinets, collections, art galleries. ldbOra-
tories, and they must be provided for by
private muuifcence. Provision should be
made for the poor, so that high education
shall come within the reach of all. There
is not woman's college, or an advanced
public institution for the education of wo-
men. that il not to-day in need of large
endowment for the purpose of bringing its
advantages within the reach of those whose
means are small.
Now we commend this matter particular
ly to rich women There ARE many, scat
tered up and down tho country, who are
wondering what they shall do with their
money when, and even before, they die.
To all these we beg the privilege of com
mending this great object. Let tAe boys
alone. They have been pretty well taken
care Of already, and the men will look after
them. 1t is for you, as women wishing
well to your own sex, and anxious for its
elevation in all possible ways, 10 endow
about the country in its interest, so that the
poor shall have an equal chance with the
rich. You can greatly help to give the

Wheat in Minnesota.

We find the following in western
exchange:
Hon. Pennock Pussy. formerly
Commissioner of Statistics in Min
nesota, estimates the acreage in wheat
in that State this year as $40, 900, this
being all increase of 10 per cent. over
the acreage of 1874, which was l,672,-
600. The average yield is placed at
eighteen bushels, which will give a
crop of 80 100000 bushels, after deduct
ing l, 100, 600 for loss by the grasskop-
pers in six counties in which they
made their appearance this year.
This will give a surplus for export of
25,000,J00 bushels.
The wheat crop of the State last year
was 81 $50, 900 bushels by official esti-
mate, giving II, 000,0 BUSHES for sale.
With the largely increased quantity
for export for the next year, the prob
able better prices, and the 100000
bushels of last years crop marketed
since the middle of June, much better
times are naturally predicted for the
State.
On the other hand, the Secretary OF
the State Grange in Minnesota pub
fishes a table i'm the Minneapolis
Union, giving the acreage of wheat in
1875 at l ,679, 100 acres. The acreage
was asceItained through the oranges,
and is considered as very nearly accu-
rate. The total yield is put by the
Union at SO $50, 400 bushels, and the
last years export at 100000.

Potash in Wheat.

Why is it, when growing wheat or rye is
being struck with rust thata littleplot here
and there where stumps, logs or brush have
been burned to ashes, will be bright and
free from the attack Of rust? Because the
growing plants employ potash and silica
not only to give stiffness and rightly to the
straw, but to form, as it were, CLASSY coat
of mail over the surface of every leaf, CLONE
and straw, to fortify the tender and delicate
parts against the attacks of spores that are
floating in the atmosphere. We all know
how readily substances in the atmosphere
are turned away when they come in con-
tact with CLASSY surface. Potash and sand
are the essential elements of glass. The
roots of growing plants have the power to
employ the sharpest sand and potash to
form thin, elastic, glossy covering, which
is spread over the surface to exclude moist
ure and to repel any attacks of fungus
