THE notorious Billings, of the United States
District court of Louisiana, has rendered
judgment in favor Of Mrs. Myra Clark Gaines
for the modest little sum of $L925, 667. II
this temperate decree were executory, which
it probably never will be, Billings would put
his foot on the State constitution, which inter
diets taxation beyond certain percentage
and issue judicial order commanding the
authorities to levy special tax large enough
to pay the judgment. We are not aware
what the aggregate assessments Of real estate
are in that city, but the sum total is more
than $I,925,667 so that Mrs. Myra Clark
Gaines and Billings, her man Friday, wont
take 1t all.

In THE nine months that ended March 81,
there came from Germany to this country
nearly five times as many immigrants as came
from Ireland in the same period. Ireland
was outdone, indeed even by England and
Wales, for these countries sent 46,23o, while
Ireland sent only 2s,oI4. Yet the Irish
agitators are grumbling about ireland
being depopulated by emigration. The
fact is, the best thing that can happen to
an Irishman is to transport him to this coun-
try. There he lives in poverty, or at the best,
ekes out hard life, here he has ample scope
for his industry and can become, like
many of his compatriots, successful man.
