CHARLES s. PARNTlL,

We understand tho Hon C. s. Parnell
ia on his way to our shores, and we hope
that his advent in our midst will he the
means of arousing an enthusiasm among
our Irish fellow citizens, OF birth or ez-
traction, In proportion to the great end
the honorable gentleman has in view.
Too long has unhappy Ireland been
trailed in the dust under the heels Of
ruthless and bnrharously dcspotic ars-
tocracy. II is time that her unfortunate
people should have their condition amcl-
iorated, and that the ulIcr OF the soil
ehould be its owner. Tho landlords OF
Ireland have no right to the soil, IN most
cases, but that of u freebooting luwlcss
conQuerOr and cOnhscat0r, ard hence II ia
surely time that the unrelcntins CRASH OF
those, foCt-pads, should be looseued. A.
Americans, We can never forget what
Irishmcn were for our native land In her
drest hour Of need. We can never be
ungratcrul for the work OF Col. Barre,
Edmond Burke, Shcriden and Gratun.
We con nevor forgot that 1t was their
matchlcs5. fcrvld ~loqucuce mat first
principally attracted and won for us the
sympathy Of those European nations,
without whose assistance, we never could
have achieved our Independence. How
can Americans forget that the Irish Par
lament would rot vote one shilling or one
man to suppress the rebellion in the
American colonies; but above ALL we can
never forget that the Irish nation in our
Revolutionary struggle neuer produced a
rditor TO our cease although, ons OF the
most numerous contlngents that then
formed our population! No. we, nor, we
are assured, any American can never
forget all this, and we have no patience
with any Of those papers who help the
oppressor by ondeayoring to helittle ana
decry any movement of any people to ex-
tricate themselves from foreign and ty-
ranic government We cannot conceive
what such reptiles are who run such pa
pers. and all we say OF them is thank
God they know not America-they know
not the great heart of tho land. that Wild
ly throbs In sympathy for Ireland to-day.
Such persons may be of our race and
country, but no, n thousand times 10,
they are not Of our spirit. We under
stand all the leading cities of the coun-
try intend giving Parncll and his assoc-
ates an ovation aud assistance such as
few men ever received We trust the
people Of this town, who still have
green spot in their hearts for the Elmer
aid Isle of their birth, will endcavor to
bring Pnrnell To Newtown and we trust
we are not mista ken when We say that
their American fellow citizens will Oh
such an occasion show the faith thats in
them, and warmly render substantial as
sistance. Danbury we hear. has already
moved In this matter, and we hope New
town will not be behind hand. Charles

THOSE USEFUL CoNDUIrs, the kidneys
and bladder, sometimes become torpid and
weak from unascertainable causes. When
this occurs, their discharging function is of
necessity very imperfectly performed, and
certain debris, which is the result of natural
bodily waste and decay, does not escape as
it should, but remains to corrupt the blood
and develop poisonous humors and danger
GUS as well as painful diseases. tits one of
the benefcent effects Of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters to gently stimulate the urinary Or
gans, and prevent them from lapsing into a
state OF inactivity, always provocative of
their infammatory degeneration and decay.
How much better, then, is 1t to adopt this
mild diuretic as a means of melting them to
action, than to incur the danger Of this de-
struction. To expel from the system waste
matter through the bowels and kidneys
and to regulate and arouse the stomach
and liver, are among the chief uses Of this
valuable remedy.

ment steam dredgcs for more than twenty
wears had tailed to remove, there were the
curious mud-lumps which, hcaving upfrom
the bottom outside the rivers mouth, often
caught ships IN their sticky embrace.
Southwest Pass was, however, the main
channel, and the only practical entrance TOR
craft larger than fishing smacks' South
Pass had only SIX feet OF water
on its bar, and Pass L'Outre and the ola
Belize had long been closed. The govern
mont would not allow Captain Eads to
work upon Southwest pass, which, having
by far the greatest volume OF water was
most easily improbable 1t was feared he
would ruin the poor channel existing there,
and so choke up the river completely He
had to take South Pass, and was compelled
in order to get enough water in it, to throw
sunken mattresses across the heads OF the
other passes. Then he had to conquer a
shoal at the head of South Pass, and stop
up an outlet through which portion of
the current escaped into the gulf All this
was preliminary and additional to the real
ietty work, which consisted in building
two walls from the rivers mouth straight
out into the gulf for distance of nearly
three miles, to the outer verge of the bar
a wall that would resist the force of the
current and the bufetings of the sea.
The river is now permanently open, and
its currents are so controlled that the
mighty stream will henceforty be the chief
factor in keeping its channel clear of the
barriers it naturally tended to build up
against the commerce Of the world, When
the Mississippi valley harbors, as it soon

adequate idea of the industrial and com
merclal benefits to flow from the unbarrlnI
of the outlet of what cannot fail to be tn
artery of our national and internationa
trade. 1t is a great victory, and Capt
Eads may be sure that popular apprecia
ton Of its grandeur will grow with tn
growth of commerce which it makes possi

OPEN TO THE MARKETS OF THE
WORLD,

The people of the Mississippi valley re-
ceived the announcement of the completion
of Capt. Ead's great undertaking at the
mouth of the Mississippi, with an indiffer-
ence that is actually unaccountable. An
achievement that should have been cele-
brated in the roar of cannon and the loud
rejoicings of the multitude, is calmly recog-
nized as a sort Of matter OF course; the
newspapers called attention to it, and then
nothing
In referring to this strange indifference
the Scientific American says that it
is, relatively speaking, so long
since the American people became convinced
of the ultimate success of the splendid en-
cheering enterprise just brought to saccess-
full conclusion at the mouth of the Mississip-
pi, that there isdanger that the immediate
credit due to Captain Eads may be popu-
larly underestimate. Men are too apt to
forget that when he began the work he did
so at his own risk, and in the face Of strong
and persistent opposition from engineers IN
high authority. They forget that all along
he has had to conquer not only the COM
mercial barriers at tie mouth of our great
river, but to do it hampered by severe re-
strictions, even the payments for work done
being contingent on the approval of engin-
GERS whose greatest joy would be in his en-
tire discontinue.
There is danger, too, of forgetting the
magnitude Of the work, and the enormous
commercial possibilities the scheme in
wolves, as well as the great power of the
opposing local interests whose prosperity
was endangered by every stroke done tow
ark opening the mouth Of the Mississippi
10 the free and easy passage of commerce.
The moral and financial victory won by
Capt. Eads is accordingly greater even
than his victory over material obstacles;
and the later were great enough to justify
our CHASING the work among the most DIFF
hcult, costly and courageous achievements
OF hydraulic engineering. In commenting
on the work, the Tribune reminds us tina,
when the jcty company began
its operations at South Pass, the
commercial entrance to the Mississippi wa,
ut Southwest Pass, but only light drauph,
vessels were sure Of getting in. A shl,
drawing over sixteen feet was liable to &c
fast OH the bar and remain there until sh
unloaded her cargo upon lighters. tn
cost Of unloading and reloading and Of til
long delay more than absorbed the prof,
Of the voyage. Besides the obstruction O
the bur, which constant work by Govern
