very early they became proficient in that

three hundred years before the Ghr5+S

the time of Walter Raleigh; a lump of

last, but not least the verltable wig
worn by Daniel O'Connelll Anauburn-
colored wig, which he wore when he
made his most fiery orations. All these
articles were contributed by the Rev.
James O'Layerty, P. p, NJ. R. l. A,
president of the Archaeological Society
at Dublin. OF course, the old Irish
whisky, sparkling and bright in its
liquid light, makes a brave show.
Equally as a matter of course, is the
display of beautiful linen, lace and bog
oak. OF the linen, seventy millions of
yards are annually produced; of the lace,
there are three hundred thousand PAIRS
of hands engaged in its manufacture;
and of the oak, it is estimated that
there are two million, eight hundred
thousand acres of bog to produce that;
so we have reason to hope that the sup
ply will always equal the demand for
these three of Ireland's most beautiful
productions. Never was the oak more
finely wrought than that exhibited
there. There are tall vases, carved
with great black punches of grapes and
leaves, marked S25. There are strings
carved beads for only 81; in fact
there is everything that the wood could

DuNLUCE CASTLE.

To-day from all thy ruined walls
The flowers nave flags oftruce;
For time has proven thy cOnqueror
And tanned thy strength, Dunluce
Lords Of the skerries' cruel rocks,
Masters of sea and shore,
Marauders in their clanking mail
Ride from thy gates no more.
Thy dungeons are untenanted,
Thy captives are set free;
The daisy, with sweet childish face,
Keeps watch across the sea.
The halls are open to the sky,
Thy revelry has ceased;
The echoes of thy miTth have died
With fires that lit the feast
What keepers of thy secrets old
Fit through the wind and rain!
What stern face gohsts have come by nigh
To visit thee again
Grim fortress of the Northern sea-,
Lost are thy power and pride;
Within thy undefended walls
The folded sheep abide.

MESsRs. EDITORS Il read in your
paper of the 18th inst. the following
from an editorial "They have not for.
gotten that the Legislature that elected
him to the United States Senate refused
to hoist the United States flag upon the
State Capitol and Indignantly refused
to appropriate dollar for the support
of the wives and children of soldiers in
the war;" Now, Mr.. Editor, I am not
the defender of Mr.. Bayard he is much
better qualified to do that than what I
am. Yet, when see men, claiming to
be respectable citizens, conducting a
newspaper, trying to deceive their
readers, and at the same time when
am one of the parties interested, am
never afraid to call things by their
right names. was a member of the
Legislature that first brought the name
of Thomas II. Bayard before 1t for the
position of United States Senator, and
had the honor of nominating him. 1t
was in the year 1869, about five years
after the close of the war, and to the
first accusation brought against that
Legislature, say the flag did fly over
that Capitol every day of its session !;
and as to the wives and children of the
soldiers, they, | suppose, had all been
provided for, as no aid was ever asked
from that Legislature for any by any
of their friends or relatives. A decent
newspaper should try to print facts; a
dishonesty conducted newspaper deals
in lies and tries to deceive the public
who read it. | have just stated facts
as I know them to exist. Comment is
unnecessary. am willing to affirm to
what have here written. In justice
to myself, am compelled to write the
above in self-defence.
