HOME OF THE IRISH PEOPLE.

1t Is In the United States Rather Than
Ireland.
There are more Irshmen in the
United States than in Ireland, says an
official of the census office. The latest
returns from the British census shows
that the population of Ireland is now
4.456.546, loss of five per cent. in the
last ten years. Sixty years ago there
were almost twice as many people in
the island, or S,173.124. The United
States census returns which show the
foreign-born population have not yet
been compiled. but it is believed the
number of natives of Ireland now in
this country is nearly 100000.
For every Irish-born inhabitant OF
the United States there are probably
two descendants OF Irish blood from
both father and mother, and this
would make the Irish population of
this country about million greater
than that of Ireland. In this estimate
no account is taken of the large num-
Der of Americans who have In their
veins Irish blood from one or the 9TH
er parental side. The cause of Ire
lands loss of population can be found
quickly enough in the steady increase
of the Irish population of America.
