Weep On, Weep On.

Air-The Song OF Sorrow.
Weep on, weep on, your hour is past;
Your dreams of pride are DER;
The fatal chain is round you cast,
And you are men no more.
III vain the tero's heart hath bled;
The sage's tongue hath warned in
vain;-
Oh! Freedom, once thy flame hath fled,
1t never lights again!
Weep on-perhaps in after years,
They'll learn to love your name;
When many a deed may wake in praise
That long hath slept in blame
And when they tread the ruin'd aisle
Where rests, at length the lord and
slave,
They'll wondering ask, how hands so
vile
Could, conquer hearts so brave.
Twas fate, they'll say, hayward fate,
Your web of discord wove;
And, while your tyrants Joined in hate,
: You never joined in love.
But hearts fell off that ought to Irvine,
And man profan'd what God had
given,
Till some were heard to curse the shrine
Where others knelt to heaven.

ANTRIM.

On Aug. "a the new White Star liner
Oceanic, the largest steamer in the
world, left her moorings at the Victoria
wharf, Belfast, between 10 and II
o'clock, and proceeded down the Tough
on her trial trip. The huge steamer,
(which was in command OF Lieutenant
Cameron, R. N. R., was towed down
the channel by two powerful tugs, and
on entering the Lough cruised about
for the purposes of having her compass
ses adjusted. A distinguished party was
on board. The departure OF the vessel
was witnessed by thousands from the
Antrim and Down shores.
CORK.
On Monday, Aug. Fl, the mayor of
Cork performed the ceremony known
as throwing the DART" According to an
ancient custom, this function is carried
, out every three years. The mayor, ac-
companied by representative citizens,
proceeds by steamer to the mouth of the
harbor, and casts dart into the sea, by
way of asserting his authority as admiral
of the port. Afterwards the mayors
guests were entertained at dinner. A
peculiar incident occurred at this dinner
The official toast list opened with "Our
Native Land" the usual 'loyal' toast
being omitted; but before the mayor
had AN opportunity of proposing the
first toast, Sir John Scott rose and pro-
posed the toast OF 3'The Queen" The
"loyalists," OF course, yelled their appro-
bation, but the rest OF the proceedings
were simply a disgraceful farce.
DOWN.
At the meeting of the Newry Board
Of Guardians, on Aug. 10, discussion
took place in regard to the appointment
OF the successors to the superintendent,
nurse and night nurse of Newry work
house, who had resigned. Mr.. M. ].
Magee advocated the appointment of
nuns as nurses, stating that he had taken
the liberty of writing on the subject to
his eminence the cardinal archbishop OF
Armagh, from whom he had received
letter approving OF the nuns being placed
in charge OF the sick poor in the Newry
workhouse. A discussion took place
with regard to the remuneration to be
allowed, and it was ultimately decided
that advertisements should be inserted
for two nurses, and that nj the event OF
two lay nurses being appointed, the
salary would be the same as heretofore
TAO and f25 per annum respectively,
with rations and apartments.

NEWS FROM IRELAND
The Dead Mother.

The Dead Mother.
"a Connaught Tradition.)
There was no sound throughout the
house,
Either by rafter or floor,
No sound at all, save OF the mouse
| That screeched behind the cupboard
The mother in her grave did lie,
Under the shamrocks on the hill,
Her two weeks babe began to cry
At dead OF night, when all was still.
Was that footstep on the stair?
The cross of Christ defend us all!
Who comes with dew-driit on her hair,
Clothed, head to foot, in funeral pail?
0, Jesu sad her face and sweet!
But, where the moonlight soft did
fall
Athwart the easement at her feet,
She made no shadow on the wall.
The flmy shroud that folded her
From throat to foot was white as
milk;
Her girdle was as gossamer
Woven Of shuttle of the silk.
Her lover slept, she leaned DER him
And kissed his dreaming tears away,
Then paused, spectral shadow dim,
Where, Graded soft, her baby lay.
She took the wee babe from its nest,
She soothed it with lullaby,
And at the fountain OF her breast
She eased its bitter hunger cry.
20 baby, baby! do not weep,
Your crying reached me in the clay,
Alanna! how can mother sleep,
Z With baby wailing far awayw
The village dog begins to bark,
The convent chime tolls three o'clock;
The dawn is breaking red, and, bark!
In distant farms crows loud the cock.
She turns and fingers fain to stay,
She steals from cradle and from bed
Unto the hill she must away
May Christ have mercy on the dead!

TWO PRISON. Frs
Escaped From the Bsawood Jai' ---0I &
Held to the Grand Jury on Serious
Charge --0ther BenWood News.

Early yesterday morning it was dis
covered that two prisoners, John Smith
and Will Tibbs, were missing from the
Benwood Jail, having made their es-
cape some time during the night. Each
man was given a hearing before Squire
Henry Riddle Monday afternoon, Smith
being charged with criminal assault,
as preferred by George Norris, in be-
half of his wife, and Tibbs being ar
raigned for being drunk, disorderly and
carrying concealed weapons. The for
nier was held to the grand jury under
bond OF $4,000, and failing to fura>
ish the bond was committed to The
county Jail. The latter, who was ar
rested by a B. & o. officer, at the
Junction, was fined s25 and costs, and
in default of payment was sent up for
thirty days.
1t is presumed that the two men
skipped out some time after midnight.
They were not confined to cells, and
We're at liberty to walk about the en-
closure. They made their exit through
hole which they dug through the
heavy brick wall in the rear of tne
building, and it is supposed that the
task was accomplished by means of an
iron handle of a water bucket, which
was found near the opening. After the
discovery the police made notification
of the escape to the authorities in the
neighboring towns. There is no clue
to the whereabouts of the TWO men,
but is thought that they win be cap
tured shortly. Smith, who came TO the
town from Mingo, Ohio, recently in
search of employment, was a boarder
at the Norris house previous to his
arrest. Tibbs, who is a cripple, having
been deprived of limb, is thought by
the authorities to have been implicated
in a robbery in a neighboring town
recently.
