The poor law guardians in the west OF
Ireland are making vigorous progress in
their arranDAmenta for tho removal to
America and the colonies of the starving
poor of their districts. The unfortunate
creatures, ranging from children in arms to
old men and women of 70 and so presented
a pitiable spectacle huddled on the rocks
without shelter of any kind and in
weather of fearful severity, waiting for the
boats from the men.of-war to take them
out to the steamer. A hospitable country
| awaits them, and thousands who remain
envy them their good fortune, but of the
true character of emigration that the
unions gladly pay for there can be little
question.

g day to remind our citizens that the
aforetime significance of Whit Monday
as popular festival is almost entirely
lost. With many Of the customs that
obtained in social life when town and
country were further apart, those of the
old fashioned Pfingst" exist only in
memory. The street scenes and holiday
sports of y generation ago are
scarcely to be found trace of in the pre-
sent celebration of the day, and ere long
will be forgotten. The railroad, tele'
graph, newspaper and telephone have
brought the remotest parts of the coun'
| ty close to it's capital and gradually
eliminated the differences between the
town and country folk. The holidays Of
the old time and their accompaniment
are distributed more and more through
out the year and no comparison more
vividly marks the progress of social de-
velopment in this community than that
Of the present Whit Monday celebration
with the features of the festival in tht

The Men Who Win Success.

1t is not the men of great talent
often who do the great work of the
world. It is the men who have
trained their working powers the
best. The greatest engineer of Eng
land was q man of only medium
talents; but he was giant in princi-
pie. He gave himself wholly to it
when a task was to be done. If a
mountain was to be pierced and
roadway made through its heart; if
an ''impracticable and impossible"
bridge was to span chasm or valley
he would shut himself up for a few
days in his room, while he turned
the matter over and over in his mind.
At the end he would come out smil-
ing, with his plans clearly laid and
his hand ready to set to work and
carry them out. Those who wish to
be great men and women, in the
truest sense, must learn to be great
workers, both with brain and hand.
The two must go together, or they
will accomplish nothing of impor-
lance to themselves or the world
Train the working power to its ut.

your mark in the age in which you
live.

He has gone to return no more

er Time are memorable, and all have
to pay him homage and obey his
summons. AS the clock pealed out
the hourof twelve last Sunday night,
the Old Year with bis pleasures, his
delightful memories, his hallowed
associations and his chronicle of
wrong, ofsorrow and ofcrime, pass
ed away, and will be remembered
no more, save when some one turns
aud looking back through the whirl-
ing mists of time, drags up some of
his pleasures, bis tales of good and
bad, and his record of important
events. He has gone, and in his
place we have the New, with his
bright hopes and bright expecta-
tons. The New Year has been
ushered in, and welcomed with any
number of new and good resolutions
and words of hope for the propriety
and happiness of all.
