Dyspepsia

The Poets of Ireland.

No critic has yet given us n scientific
analysis of Irish genius, but there are
certain features of it which all recog-
nize as NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Irish.
The most marked of these, perhaps, is
the delicate subtlety of the language
used in expressing the emotions.
Through all the ages this has been noted.
No matter whether the poet or orator
was Kettle or Norman, Dane or Saxon,
if only his family had been in Ireland
long enough, his effusions showed the
same exquisite perception of the delicate
shades of meaning in all words expressive
Of sorrow or love, anger, humor or
hatred, devotion or patriotism. Is it in
the air OF the scenery?
The verses of Tom Moore, Oliver Gold
smith, Dr. Maginn, Charles Lover and
many others might be cited in this CON
necticn.
These are but specimens of the most
cultured Irish poets, but the great point
Of interest in this connection is the enor-
nous mass of poetry and song floating
among the common people. And. this
has distinguished Ireland from the ear
HS9e elAVS' Inc LIthus anu the DaruS,
the early Christian missionaries and later
heroes, even the transplanted Danes,
Normans, Scotchmen, Saxons, all were
poetic after their kinds, and In many sec
tions of Ireland the trained ear often de-
tects a sort Of rhythm in the COMMON
speech of the peasantry. To sketch ever
50 briefly the writers of popular Irish
songs in recent times would simply be
to write book. And the supply is ap-
parently without limit, the mnSc as
sweet, the language as tender, as deli
cately shaded as ever No popular move
ment is without its poets; no corner OF
Ireland but enjoys many local ballads.
Yet, it must be IN. the air.

James Ranley, ?. j. Corbett ana Horace
G. Piatt, the Commissioners named by the
Board of Supervisors to assess benefits and
damages for opening and extending Polk
and Franklin streets, Van Ness avenue and
TWO or three cross streets through The La
guna Survey, filed their report yesterday.
They state that the great majority of peo-
pie residing within the district affected have
long desired to have those streets opened
Indeed the sole cause of the backwardueSS
Of that district is the fact that it has not
proper street cOnyeDienceS. Parts of the
10O-Yara lots to be taken have already been
either directly or indirectly dedicated to the
public. There are no conflicting claims of
title existing as to any CT the lots required,
except TO portion of the land on the north
east and southwest corners of Van Ness
avenue and Green street. The claimants in
this case will make a Joint deed to the city,
The district to be affected is bounded by
the bay on the north. Leavenworth street
ON the east, Market on the south and Fill
more on the west, and is divided into four
classes. In the first are the lands which
bear the heaviest burdens-that is, lands
within the survey in front of which the
streets will be extended. Adjoining such
lands will be the second class. Lands lying
on the three main streets, Franklin, Polk
and Van Ness avenue, are estimated as de-
irving more benefits than those lying be-
tween them, and must be assessed accord
ingly.
Railroad companies having tracks within
the district are also assessed. The Suffer-
street and Preside and ferries are assessed
more than the others because they run
through the Laguna Survey. There viii be

taken. The expenses of the Commissioners
amount to So, 373 81. OF that SI0,S00 is

name simply means "Robber o. the WoOd"l
has been a favorlte Of boyhoud for many
generations, and the incidents and adven-
lures which divers old ballads give to him
are quite sufficient material for a compli-

the efforts made by Robin Hood to claim the
title and estates of the earld0m of Hunting
ton, a claim to which, according to tradi-
lion. he had no small pretensons. The
Sheriff, who is custodian of the estates en-
deaYors to substitute as the Earl a young
