If it be any comfort, we may add that the
Eoglish export trade is DE- Ginning in sb 1ut the
same ratio; but it must be remem bered that
rich England can stand draft that would ut-
terly drain poor Ireland. In 1873 the gross
total of exports from the chief ports of Great
Britain and Ireland for this country amounted
to Sl77.O l6 47S while last year the amount was
$94 552 1874 decrease of Leariy oue-half.
The total number of emgrants from Ireland
to the United States in the year 1877 was
13 79l. The number from England was 6 122
but q great many of these were Irish who had
shipped from Liverpool, as hss always been
the habit of many Irish emigrants. The total
number of immigrants from Ireland from 1872
to 1877 was 253 563; and the number of immi-
grants shipping from England in the same
time was 255 O2l. IL these years the number
of immigrants from Germany was SCI geo, or
more than the whole number from Great
Britain and Ireland.
The number of immigrants arriving from
Ireland in 1872 was 69. 761 in 1873 the number
was rs, ,sis; in 1874 it was az 6sS; in 1875 it was
20 969; in 1876 it was 16 SEC. and in 1877 it was
only 1871.
These figures 60 to show that W lille Ireland
is losing her export trade, che is keeping her
people at home. Were the latter fact standing
alone, we should regard it as q hopeful sign;
but taken with the former, we fear We are
right in concluding that the emigration from
Ireland has decreased in conseq uence of the
hard times in this country rather then from
any Improvement in the state of Ireland.

constantly enlarging. Since 1873 steady de.
crease in the number of immigrants has been
noticeable, and in 1876 only 1s2 ,O27 arrived.

is natural to believe that an Improvement in

VOLUNTEERS IN IRELAND.


Mr.. Chief Secretary L1wther has re
fused, in the name of the Government, the
request that Volunteer force should be
established in Ireland. He received q
deputation counting some of the most in :
hoentlai men In the country, of different
political views, and he heard what they
had to say. But he was already in posses
| sion of his Instructions, and he delivered
them clearly. Strangely enough, the mat
ter was discussed on the previous night
in the House of Common, and the Minister
of War, speaking his individual opinion,
admitted the right of the Irish people to
demand participation in the privilege of
I all people whose freedom is not q mere
pretence-that of bearing arms for the pro-
lection of their country. The decision of
| the Government must have been arrived at
without Colonel Scauley's cognisance, or
he would not have used the words attri-
buted to him in Parliament. So far as
Mr. Lowthers answer is concerned, not
only was it unexpected, but it is indefensi-
BILE. Moreover, it is delusive. The right
hon. gentleman, wishes the world to think
that while there are party and religious
differences in Ireland, an arming of the
masses would set them shooting each other
This contemplate libel has run too long

They were devoted TO duty even when
Ministers cling to the tradi-
tions of Palmerston, who inherited them
from tbs last century. The Irish Volun-
teers of a hundred years ago made use of
their power to free themselves from intol-
erable oppT TessioD. They besought relief
aud it was only when
hey awoke to the uselessness of appeals to

government feared another 'ae; and how
ver childish the fear may be, We should
It least discern a plausible plea. What
