An Admirable Showing.

Boston Traveller.
Whatever may be said for or agains
the Irish people, there is certainly one re-
spect in which they may challenge the
admiration OF the world, namely, In mat
Iimonlal fidelity. In the recently issued
tables giving statistics ON the subject OF
divorce, after dndlng that our own eoun-
try leads In having granted nearly half a
million divorces during the twenty years
past, turn TO the record OF foreign lands
to find that the European nations are
com ng into competition, but, In looking
against the name 'lreland," see that
tn re have been eleven divorces through
ont the length and breadth of Erin.
Protestant or Catholic, in happine or
abuse. the Irish continue the partnership
until 1t is dissolved by death.
