ireland at the Fair.

Ireland may have separate display
at the worlds fair after all. General
Charles III. Grosvenor, one of the special
agents of the Treasury Departments sent
abroad by Secretary Foster, has lately
interested himself in the Irish display.
Now William P. Lane, member of
parliament from Cork, has begun to agi~
tate the question. Mr.. Lane takes this
view of the matter:
"The exhibition is called the worlds
fair and it's promoters have every reason
to be proud of the success wich already
promises to crown their great and ambi~
tious project. Every nation whose gov
eminent takes a paternal interest in
developing it's progress and prosperity
will be represented in this convocation
of nations.
"Ireland is nation. Ten or fifteen
millions of American citizens reverence
the time -honored toast of ,, Ireland
Nation" But Ireland has no paternal
government to make an appropriation
to enable it to be represented in this
forthcoming assemblage OF nations,
though her arts and manufactures were
old and famous when most of her pre-
sent day compeers had neither one nor
the other. Are the Irishmen of Amer
lea satisfied that their nation alone, Of
the nations of the earth, shall not be
represented as nation? That is the
question ask the freshmen of America
to take into their consideration.
A very small but we'll organized
effort of the Irish race in America
would quickly conjure up building in
the exhibition grounds where the Irish
at home could prove to the world that,
despite of the malignant efforts made
for centuries to crush her arts and
manufactures. Ireland is still able, in
proportion to her population and re-
sources, to take her place among the
nations Of the earth. Will this effort
be made? That is for the freshmen of
America to decide, and to decide
promptly. II they so decide it can be
done. I have an intimate and practical
connection with the exhibition move
ments at home, and know what can be
done with organization and money.
"A successful Irish exhibition in Chi
cage would necessarily mean an in
creased demand for Irish manufactures
and work for the thousands of men and
women whose only prospect is the al
ternatiye Of starvation or emigration.
This is the practical side of it. Gen
eral GrosyenoI, one Of the special COM
missioners of the worlds fair. visited
Cork to enlist cooperation for it, and
was we'll received. I explained to him
the difficulty, under existing circum-
stances, of having successful repre-

ANTRIM.

The report of the Flax Supply ASSOC
lation from August shows no improve
ment On any of its predecessors, it we
except fax, which is still increasing Its
imports. Yarns have decreased in
quantity, though not in value, the lat
ter indeed having gone up consider
ably. But in piece goods the falling
off for August, 1890, is to the extent OF
II per cent in quantity and 80 per cent
in value. The falling off is serious.
The West Indies took 50.7 per cent less;
Italy, 29.1 per cent less; France, ISL
per cent less; and Canada. "a 9 per cent
less last month than in any in 1890.
Taking the eight expired months OF
1891 the decrease is 1873 per cent in
quantity and 1915 per cent in value as
compared with the corresponding per-
iod of 1890. This does not indicate a
healthful state of trade, unless the
preceding year was an unusually pros
porous one, which we fear the linen
merchants would hardly admit.

whale was at the mercy of it's enemies.
A number of persons armed themsel-
