PARLIAMENT AND IRISH DISTRESS

The Queen is to brought in person to openwhat must inevitably be considered the lastsession of the present Parliament, and what herMajeBty will be made to say on the many press-ing topics with which the nation io now sodeeply concerned, is occupying tho almost dailyattention of the Cabinet Ministers. On the pro-gramme which they present will puch defendthe length of the session, and will determinethe time of the dissolution. The distress inIreland must be dealt with in no niggard man-ner, and it is now thought that the Governmentwill make a big bid for the Irish vote by somevery liberal proposition to meet the prevailingdistress all ova- the country. The WhitehallBemevs states it has authority for saying " th»tthe Queen's Speech wil notify the intention ofher Majesty's Government, to make substantialprovision for the relief of the destitute peasantryin the West of Ireland. Mr. LOWTHKB hashad several interviews with the Prime Ministeron the subject of the condition of the people inthe "Western provinces, and now that the Cabinetthrough the Irish Secretary, have beenaBsuredthe distress is greater than can be provided forby local machmeiy, or by.public benevolence,they have resolved to sanction a money grantfrom the Treasury." • ::

la ¦ the event of no such proposition beingmade, and pnt into operation at once, it will bethe duty of Irish members, of all shades ofpolitics, to press on the claims of Ireland toremedial measures at every opportunity, so thr.tthe world may know hows, portion of the King-dom has been abandoned in her hour of distress,caused by the will of Providence and not by anyfault of our people. . ' ; :

THE DISTRESS—RELIEF PROCEEDINGS INDUNGARVAN.

That the philanthropic people of Dungarvan,and its neighborhood, are zealously working tomitigate, eo far as they can, the trying effectsof the withering distress prevailing in that partof the country, as well as elsewhere throughoutIreland, is plainly evidenced by the reportswhich we weekly publish from that ancientborough. The public . boards there pay closeattention to how they may best attain the onegreat object now engaging the earnest considera-tion of all having, not alone the welfare of thecountry at heart, but a feeling of concern forsuffering humanity, and to the miserable

^ extent

to which the law enables them to go on in thatdirection, theyV&re discharging their high duty,a care for the lives of their fellow beings. Thatthe residents of the borough, generally, men ofall classes, and of all creeds, are most creitablyaiding in this truly laudable work, is amply,demonstrated by the two publio meetings heldrecently in its Town Hall to aid the promotionof the relief, and a cheering sight it was to seethe unanimity which marked the proceedings,and the evidence of the one feeling animatingall, the succor of the distressed. This consol-ing state of facts was illustrated with peculiarforce in.connection with, the very last of thesetwo meetings. Called together by the largestrequisition, perhaps, ever presented in that townto promote any local object, it is truly oheeringto mark the movement for relief headed by agentleman, of the position, the attainments,and the ceaseless energy of the Very Rev. Dr. ¦(JLBABT, P.P., V.G.—a gentleman who sothoroughly. knows the wants of the poor of hisflock , and who tells the world, in unmistakeablelanguage, and on incontrovertible authority,that upwards of 1,500 of that flock stand inabsolute need of instant relief. With the veryrev. pariah'priest are prominent, equally feel-ing, and equally zealous, the Protestant clergy-men of the parish, ready and practically sympa-thetic in aiding the work in hand. The laity,too, stand forward in their hundreds, giving agenerous help, and foremost of them all is thegentleman who, oeeing what was coming, wasthe first to raise the cry for aid, and the first to

S've a sterling proof of his feelings—we meanr. HENBY YHajusBS.STUABT, D.L., of Dro-

mana. From that time up to the presentmoment Mr. STUAJJT has been unceasing in hisefforts for the aleviation of distress, by contri-butions from his own'resources ; by rent remis-sions ; by urgent appeals to government to doits manifest'duty in the present crisis ; aschairman of the Board of Guardians, and,lastly, as a resident' landlord; of the ; district,keenly alivei to the piteous condition, of thepeople, and animated l>y a resolve that, so faras he can, they shall not starve. The merchantsand geneial traders of Dungarvan are equallydeserving of praise for, their laudable exertions,and, in line, when men of such position as Mr.STUABT, of such genuine ability as he is knownto poBBeas; and as was no well shown by hisspeech at the recent meeting, and of _ such m-fluenoe, f<Jm» in a movement of this kind, as hehas done, and'is being so well sustained as hehas been, there can be no donbt of the securingthe very best reenlts.

THE DOCTRINAIvr MORAL, ( HISTORICAL, ANDL1TOTOICAL CATECHISM.

CONFERENCE OF IRISH MEMBERSA very important and necessary conference of Irish

members took place in Dublin on Tuesday and Wed-nesday, the Lord MATOE in the ohair. Several reso-lutions were passed urging the government to moreactivity if they valued the lives of their Irish subjects.Mr. Shaw's resolution affirmed that great distress ex-isted in many districts in the country, whioh was Teryproperly oorreoted by Mr. Riohord Power, who stated,and truly, that distress oxistcd all over Ireland, thoughto a greater extent in somo districts than in others. Tothis effeot the resolution was unanimously adopted. Ma-jor O'Gorman said that government had helped tho dis-tressed districts with policemen, which was not tbe waythey had relieved English suffering. Tho O'Donoghne,M.P., was received into the ranks of Homo Bulo.

THE PRESERVATION OF BUTTER.The Aylesbnry Dairy Company have issued a notice to

tho effeot that tboir process for preserving butter isstill only known to themselves, and will remain so untilthe resnlU of certain exhaustive experiments are ascer-tained. This caution, they state, has been rendorednecessary on account of cortain vendors of food-preser-ving compounds having spread reports that the compa-ny's new method of preserving butter is by tho use ofglacialine, boraoio acid, and sauoycle acid, which reportsare entirely without foundation.

THE TRUE-HANDED STATEMENTTO THB KDITOB OP THK WATKBFOBD NEWS.

S:a—As my lost letter, " The left-handed State-ment," has developed! such a Intent amount ofspirited energy on behalf of the good landlord, andcharitable gentleman, | Mr. Stuart, of Droinana, Ideen it more prudent to leave the commissioner ofthe old borough of the town of Dungarvan to thee&tt keeping of his brother commissioners for thepresent, they having already handled him ably andwell, and revert to subjects more ongen'ml to mytas-« at this holy season of tbe year : Now tbatourfeaJts and festivals are over, I shall, with your kindpeiraission, say a few wdrdB on the charity of Mr. andMrs Stuart, of Droinana.

When I tell you, my friends, tenant-electors, thatthe charity of Mr. and Mrs Stuart extends over theirowl estate, it feebly expres6«s the feelings of thepoor ; but further, I will tell you that their charityBtrftches over neighbouring properties, without theleiM distinction of class or its sub-divisions, I stillWt very faintly reveal the existence of astito of things that has been practised annually.

ac>- -irding to tho good old custom. When I informyotl, my friends, that Mr. and Mrs Stuart suppliedth) poor with all requisite necessaries, in the shapeofftnoney, coals and clothing, to make them happyaid comfortable during the old year of '79, and thenew year of '80, it mokes us sensible of their nobleard natural generosity but very imperfectly, for hadyoi Been the fleet of colliers, with canvas unfurled,sailing from the historic town of old Yougbol,cl '.ving the surf of the romantic Blackwater, on toth9 precincts of the Dromana mansion, thero dis-charging their cargoes, solely for the benefit of theea er crowds, congregated from distant parts, to re-ceive their separate and welcome portion, you wouldbejagreeably surprised; and, in addition to this dis-tribution of their bounty, there are from five to sixhtldred persons obtaining a living under the bene-fic tJauapiceBof the honourable House of Dromana,together with new-comers from other quarters oftnis county, EO that the sum total of the recipients•living received their kina assistance may be roughlyi >» down as, close ou two thousand persons. Thenoily imagine the effects produced on the communityat^ large, and, without any great stress on theimagination, you, my friends, will acknowledge thatBiCb. doings are incalculable. You, in your wisdom,will truly consider that such acts, while assisting ourfe'.tow-creatures, iudirectly aid ourselves, in sparingtbe pockets of the ratepayers, a very important itemn^w-a-days.

Now, dismissing Mr. Stuart from any more con-sideration, in this letter, I wish to state a few factsretarding his amiable partner, Mrs Stuart. AsjM , my friends, have not a thorough opportunity ofjoKing matters in detail, in their true light, beingip^Tgrf>at measure beyond the limits of your supcr-v.jiou, or of plying into the secrets of tbe poor at-tended to at the hands of Mrs Stuart, I shall un-fold the banner of charity that floats over thewestern port of this county, and in so doing I hopetojbring in bold relief before your mind's eye thegfllsome appearance shown by the poor on the joy-fisT tidings of her coming to make her usual visita-tiins. Here her labour of love and charity coin-¦< ences at tha bed of death, in the humble cot, or int I'O highway ; wherever distress of any sort or typeit prevalent, this amiable lady, regnrdless of thecold forms of society, is found devoting her servicesto> the ministration of the poor, rather than visitingtV« amusing theatre, or the palace of the noble whichsUe could enjoy. She heeds them not, but continuesca the even tenor of her way ; is saluted by thecrowds, whose greetings, mingled with salt tears,demonstrate the effects of their overchargedhearts, as tho foeble and disconsolate revive at herapproach ; the grave become gay ; pleasure takesttie place of gloom ; joy banishes sadness, andmelancholy changes to cheerfulness ; even the oldand infirm display their kind feelings in a modetjriily exciting, by fervent prayers, for their kindwiefactress. Drawing my impressions from ex-«rience and observations, I wish to make a breach¦rough that opaque, icy wall, that has su long bid-(£n from view such glorious deeds, which have beento' potent in changing the very natures of our oldand care-worn poor. It is a grand, a beautiful sightmsee their happy faces, and beaming smiles nmni-Bting their intense gratitude at this noble mission¦ charity ; the only reward, in this .vale of misery,¦ing the holy 'aspirations of a' grateful people.When a lady litre Mrs Stuart takes such a deep andfltive interest in the wants of the poor throughout¦e year, and when holidays come round redoublesEr donations in relieving pressing necessities ; indeviating the threatened misery that now un-vtunately moro than looms in tbe distance, and allJpse unceasing efforts made for-the sacred cause offVmanity, free from the bias of class or creed, it isrH to be wondered at that these constant exertions£1* in a special manner the bulwark that stems thetorrent of wretchedness and gloom that hover likeL "'hazy mist over other parts less fortunatelyp.iperintended. I repeat that Mrs Stuart for-tifi es the great to aid the widow ; to cheer the help-less orphans ; to console the afflicted ; to breatheaft, tender words into tbe ears of the dying, and toeVourage the weak.tottering- aged, wearing out thew remnant of existence, to be content and oheer-ftjt on shuffling off this mortal coil. Oh 1 when thisacniable lady is attending the bed of death, howbeautiful are her consolations, banishing despair byguiding the prostrate 'patient along to the brightpith f '. hope, and thereby .to lay hold on eternalUrn', w that if charity deserves our recognition, weo ht to wreath Mrs Stuart's brow with a brightgailand. Next follow Mrs Stuart into her relationsvdfch her household, and there you will find her grace-fM proceedingo characterised by tho most refinedcsSlities towards her large retinue, and, need I say,aSng the mother in true Irish style, to ber youngall beautiful family.' I hope I won't throw yourfend formed opinions behind the shade when I tellyou that Mrs Stuart is connected by the nearest tieswith the honorable bouse of Kilfane, the charitablehouse of Gurtoen, and last, but most certainly notleut, is: a. noble scion from a charitable house ofsAtly Lismore. ; Ungrateful , hearts and shallownAds reject the idea of placing such acts beforetjfl people ; but away with 'that sordid philosophytrHt strives to hide unknowing snob. Christian actsfi'Om tbe bar of public opinion. ' ' ' ' 'j In recording' these noble and patriotic deeds, Icpn't for one momentrequire that you, my friends,troaht-electors, ¦ are to conclude that the abovenitrated facts are temporary osly, as some famousithividual8 would have you believe. No, no; theya truly permanent. May the prayers of theujlvSitude descend . oh.', her ' noble and charitablebifliand, hetself, and' her happy and youthfulfamily.—I remain, sir, your very obedient servant.'\X ' - ' ¦• ' "PATRICK WALSII, P.L.G.

THE CORPOEATION.A special meeting of the Corporation was held on

Tuesday, commencing at a quarter past twelve,called on requisition, signed by " L. A. Eyan,Mayor ; George White, David Kent, and MichaelO'Meara," for the following purposes:—

" To consider estimate of publio and domoitia waterrate prepared by tho Waterworks' Committee, and totake anon stepn for striking and levying said rates a*may bo deemed necessary ; to read correspondence (ifany) and aot thereon ; to consider, and act on reportsand recommendations of the Waterworks' Committoo ;to transact such other business in connection with thewaterworks' undertaking as may bo submitted for con-sideration." There woro present :—Eight Worshipful Alderman L. A. ETAK, Mayor, in

the ohair.Aldermen : Q. I. Mackesy, M.D., ex-Mayor ; T.

Purcoll, St. G. Frooman, J.P., P. Manning. Coun-cillors : M. O'Mcara, J. Lcamy, J. Mo ran, H. Gallwey,J.P., L. Frooman, W. J. Smith, R. A. Egan, N. M.Allen, J. MoEuory, D. Kent, W. E. Keily, M. Hunt,J. Clampott, W. Cherry, J. H. McGrath, M. J. Cox,A. JTarrell, J. Fisher, with Mr. J. W. Howard, solr.,Town Clerk ; Sir. T. F. Strango, Law Advisor ; Mr.P. Kent, solr., Borough Treasurer ; Mr. B. H. Ryan,City Engineer, and Mr. E. S. Kennoy, Mayor's Secre-tary, in attendance.

THE ESTIMATE FOB THE WATEB BATE.The TOWN CLKBK brought up the approximate

estimate for the water rate (already published),which Beth forth, that the gross valuation of thecity was £39,240 Us. ; from this amount was to bededucted £1,426, the valuation of Fei-rybank ex-empted from the Water Act, and that left a balanceof £37,815 15s., liable to tbe public water rate of3d. in the pound, which would produce £472 18s.lOd. Deducting the valuation of the Bridge £3,600,exempted from the Act, and lands not liable, £59118s., left £33,623 178. liable to tbe domestic waterrate of Is. in the pound, realizing £1,681 18s. 6d.,the two items making a gross total of £2,15417s 4d.Ou tho side of liabilities would be : instalment onloan of £50,000 due Mny 1880, £1,114 Us. 8d. ; es-tiumted instalment on £15,000 loan, due samedebt £120; salaries and working expensed £220 ;instalment of arrears of interest to same date £700,makincr a total of £2,154 11s. 8d.

Mr. FISHER, who said he was rather unwell, andwould not detain the Council long, stated that therate books required revision before the rate wasstruck, because the public buildings which weresubject to hnlf rents, and, therefore, liable to berated, were not valued sufficientl y hijjh, and thatvaluation should be raised before they would t-trikea rate. When that would be done, the valuationwould be over £40,000 on whioh the rate would beleviuble. He thought it right to state tha,t theseproceedings -were watched by parties outside, whohad a solicitor employed, and if there should beanything wrong in them, they would bo upset in theQueen's Bench (ob, oh !)

MATOB—This meeting is not called for the pur-pose of striking a rate. The meeting is to considerand adopt the estimate, and then to fix a day onwhich to strike a nite, tbat day not to be soonerthan one month (hear hear). In the meantime, therate-books are to be open for inspection, and anyratepayer who may feel himself aggrieved will havefull opportunity to state hiB case. No doubt whathas been stated by Mr. Fisher will receive due con-sideration, and ° be may rest assured tbe ratebookswill be made out correctly. It can, however, makelittle difference as to the gross amount of the rate.

Mr. Fisnxit said ho did not want to oppose therate, but tha estimate was only au approximateone.

MATOB—And being an approximate one, therewill, of course, be some alterations.

The TOWN CLEEK hero read a resolution thathe had drafted on the subject, which was to adoptthe estimate, and to direct immediate preparation ofthe rate bool:s. This motion was proposed by Mr.McGsATn, and seconded by Aid. PUKCELL .

The MAYOH, answering Mr. Clampett, wbo askedseveral questions on the subject, said that the pro-posed rate was to carry them on to May next.Another rate would bo required from that date toMay, 1881. "Further replying to Mr. Olampett hisWorship said the public should pay for the puttingof the pipes from the mains into their houses.

Mr. CLAHPETT observed ho was quite ready topay the rate, but he agreed in delaying the strikingof it.

Mr. MOBAH said be wanted none of this water fortbe past Beven months, and got none of it, but stillbe found he would have to pay for that time, as wellas those who did take it. Was that the cose ? .

MATOB—Such is the law.Mr. MORAN—It is very unfair.Mr. FIBHBK here made another complaint. Taking

up the item in the estimate for salaries and workingexpenses, he naid an estimate for one year's rate wasbrought up, while in it but half a year's expenseswere charged. He did not want to use harsh terms,but the estimate was not prepared for an honestpurpose, in bis opinion (oh, oh, and laughter). Itwas done to make it appear they were in a solventposition, ableto pay all.

The. MAYOR replied tbat the expenses for thefuture were calculated on the data they had of theoutlay already incurred, and all would come rightin the end (liear, hear). Again, he should observethat the estimate was an approximate one, but"asnear as possible to the actual facts (hear, hear).Aid. FREEMA N : And it is practically an estimatefor one year (hear, hear). Again replying to,jMr.CLAMPETT, bis WORSHIP said the water rents werestopped last June, by resolution of Council, andthere was no intention to look for them from thatdate. Mr. CLAMPETT : Then tho watei- rato comesin t MATOB. ; Yes. Mr. CLAMPETT : And willthose who have not paid up to Juno -be exemptfrom their arrears of the water rents P MAYOR :No, they will not. In reply to the'MATOB, the CityEngineer said there were about twenty wbo hadnot paid the water rent.

Mr. FISHES moved an amendment, seconded byMr. CLAMPETT, that the estimate be sent back totbe committee for alteration as to the valuation.'

The MAYOII ' put the amendment, and declaredthe " noes" to have it. Mr. FISHER demanded apoll, and he had it as follows :—

For—Ifessrn. Clampett, AUon, Egan, O'Meara,Fisher, Moran,*O'Reilly—7. , ' .

Against—Moasrs. Mackesy, St. G. Freeman, Parooll,Smith, L.«-Freeman,- Kent, Cox, Manning, Lcamy,McGrath,- Keily, Gallwoy,, Farrell, Syam (mayor ,MoEnery, Cherry, Hunt—17. • . i ¦

Tbe amendment was declared lost. The MATOBthen put tho original ciotiia, to adopt tbe esti-mate ; Mr. Fisber demanded a poll, which wasconceded, and the result was the same 17 membersvoting against tbe amendment polled for, and the 7for tbe admendment went against. Tbo motionwas declared carried. '

THI QUABANTSX FOB TUB LOAN. iThe Town- Clerk then submitted ttie draft mort-

Mr. R. Hcnnebery, Bridge-street, was declaredcontractor for two tone of oatmeal at £12 10s. perton. and ono ton of best Galatz Indian meal at £7.

THE MATOB AS AN EX-OFFICIO GUABDIAN.Mr FISHEB expressed his surprise that the Mayor

was not returned as an ex-officio guardian. In bisopinion the Mayor should always be an ex-off iciomember of tbat board.

Mr. CLAMPETT said he did not agree in the viewthat the Mayor, as mayor, should, of necessity, beon this list. A mayor might be a Email ratepayer,and a gentloman who would be a large ratepayershould not be put aside for him when thero wouldbe a vacancy.

Mr. NEWELL—Cannot the mayor come and takehis seat here in right of bis being major ?

Ci/XBK—No sir, it does not, at all. Uu.nw. Thetwo last mayors were elected guardians, and didnot sit here as ex-off icios.

Mr. FISHER—Tho mayor is a chartered justice,and represents a larger property than my LordWaterford, or any other in the union. That beingBO, he has a right to be here.

CLEBK—When the cx-ojicio list IB making out, Isend a circular to the Mayor to know if ho wiU'octas an ex-off icio. and if he consents, he is returnedunder certain conditions. The subject here ended.

[Our present worthy Mayor is a large ratepayerand a large employer.]

OA8 IN THE HOUSE.A letter was read from the Secretary of tho Wa-

terford Gas Company (Mr. J. G. McCarthy, junr.),stcting that the directors had consented to reducethe price of gas in the house by 3d. per 1000 feet,making the cost 4s. 8d. per 1000, when account ispaid within the month after the quarter.

WATERFOBD DISPENSARY.At a meeting of this committee on Monday it

was represented tbat the dispensary doctors ex-perienced very considerable difficulty in dischargingtheir duty in tbe outskirts of the city, in conse-quence of the houses not being numbered. Toremove this difficulty the committee directed that acommunication be made to the corporation on thesubject. The matter was left to the clerk.

VACCINATION.Dr. Coghlan, Kilmacow, and Dr. Cane, Kilinace-

vogne, returned nit as their vaccination report withrespect to defaulters, and Dr. Wbitty, Waterford,reported 47 defaulters. Tbis latter report was re-ferred to the sub-sanitary officer.

ACCOMMODATION IN THE HOU8E.A committee appointed tbe hut day, on the sug-

gestion of Mr. P. Barron-Newell , to reduce theover-crowding in the boys' schools, reportedcertain changes to meet the requirement, the chiefitem being to remove 30 boys to the infant schoolroom, the latter being transferred to the femaleidiot ward, the idiots having been sent to the feverhospital shed, these boys to be under the charge ofthe teacher recently appointed. The report originatedsome discussion, as Mr. Elliott, wishing to have ac-commodation of a permanent character provided,suggested that a loan should be applied for fromtbe government, where it could be hod for 35 yearsat one per cent, with two years, when no interestwould be charged. Tbe majority of the guardianspresent held that the question of a loan could notbe properly mixed up with the report, and they werekept separate. The report was adopted, on motionof Mr. NEWELI/, seconded by Mr. CLAMPETT. At asubsequent period of tbe proceedings, Mr. ELLIOTTproposed a committee to consider whether or not itwould be judicious to apply to tbe government fora loan, on the terms governing these advances atpresent, to provide permanent accommodation forexcess numbers in tbo house. The motion wasseconded by Mr. LEAMY and agreed to, the com-mittee, which was then named, to report on thisday week.

THE COMING HALF-YEABLT CONTBACT8.—THEFUTDBE TEA.

The CLERK reported the meeting of the com-mittee appointed to draft the terms of the adver-tisement calling for tenders for the cominsr half-yearly supplies. Special reference was made to teatenders, and with respect to this item it was recom-mended that a fixed price be stated in the advertise-ment.. Mr. CLAMPETT argued at much length in favor ofhaving the price left open to tenderers, the test ofdeciding the quality, which would govern the con-tract, resting with the guardians, who would takethe best tea at the lowest possible price.

Mr. LEAMY met this contention by expressing hisdecided opinion that the guardians were no judgesof tea, and that the most advantageous plan, fortbe sake of the sick poor and the ratepayers, was tocoll for tenders at a stated price.

Aid. MANNING supported this view, observingthat he had greit doubts as to tbe ability of theguardians to test tea properly, so as to agree on aprice when deciding tbe contract. He saw a personof experience in the trade very ranch, mistaken intho board-room as to the quality of tea, and he badgreat donbt, since then, of guardians- being able toform a judgment on such a subject

Mr. CLAMPKTT observed that under a fixed price,room was' given to tho perpetration of abuse. Iftbe price;was,fixed at Is.- 6d. a pound, it was quitepossible for a person in the trade, if so disposed, tosend in tea costing Is. 4d. per pound, at that figure.

Mr. FISHBR said the fact , was, in the past half-year their real contractor was a London house, andthe tenderers who were accepted received their com-mission over the contract price. The board dividedon whether the price would be stated, or left open,and the following was the voting :— ;

For f ixed price—Messrs. Farrell, Ktlly, Ncwoll ,Barron, Manning, Brennan, Elliott, Lcamy. —8.

For not f ixing—Messrs.. i'isher, Rogers, Clampott,Hally, Voalo—5 . . '

Tbe principle of a fixed price was affirmed, butthe settling of the figure was postponed for thepresent ' ' MABTKB'S EKPOBT.

In the items read by the master from his reportwas one asking permission .'to have his two littlegrand-children (twins, aged three) reside with himin his apartments until they would be sent for fromAmerica by their parents.' Mr. BABBON-NJWELLsaid that; on principle, he should 'strongly opposeany permission of!' tbe kind.' .- They were hearingcontinually of want of accommodation in, the. house,and' now they had such an application before them.Be would not ' be for giving, toone officer' what hawould refuse'to another,-laudvirould .strenuouslyoppose tbe granting of any guch'permission."

As Felix O'Cal-laghan in tho farco of " His Lost Legs," Mr. CharlesCooko displayed unimpaired powers as a comedian, andkept his andience in an almost continuous round oflaughter to the end.

Each man without much diffi-culty could slip a upply for a couple or three daysinto his haversack. Here, then, we have the wholesecret of waging v ir with minimized transport andconsequently at i reduced expenditure.

It will be argued that, however valuablesuch food may tx for our own British soldiers, thecaste prejudices o the natives will prevent theirever agreeing to ta introduction. There . is noreason why the f ante articles of diet nsed by theSepoys should no be similarly compressed,1 andunder the superint indence of their own cooks; rice,dhal, ghee, veget bles, all and each'of them maybe operated on in he same manner as peasoup andScotch broth; int Uigent native officers will not befound wanting wb will readily agree to the advan-tages claimed by t e inventors. . . . .

Honailnif eFAEMING OPEEATIONS FOB JANUABT.

(From the Irish jPorm«r.)I'LonOHiNO.—Ploughing, where not yet finished,

should be proceeded with . on every favourableopportunity. Grass land intended for green cropsmay bo prepared at least expense by using twoploughs—one following the other—the first turningthe grass sod abont two inches thick to the bottomof the previous furrow ; the second plough followingin the same track, taking as deep as. sod an thestrength of the horses and the nature of the soilwill admit of, and covering the grass sod beyondthe reach of the harrow in the spring, and leavingall the mould on the surface. If well done, andearly, it will require but little tillage in the spring,when it should not be worked as deep as to bring upthe grass sod. This is a capital way of prepftripold massy lea for oats to be sown with the corndril

WHEAT.—As soon as the condition of thesoit willpermit get the remainder of the wheat crop sown,increasing tho quantity of seed per acre as theseason advances.

TWBWIPS.—See that there is a sufficient quantitystored both in the vicinity of the lambing paddock,and also near tho feeding house to meet any reason-able emergency, snob as frost, or bad weather.Frosted turnips are very injurious to all classes ostock, causing abortion in breeding animals, andretarding the fattening process by scouring, whengiven to feeding stock.

DRAINAGE operations should bo finished as soonas possible Keep th6 bottoms of the drains quitenarrow, the narrower the better, as it will take *smaller quantity of water to cause a flow than ifwide. Use stones broken to the size of road metalto the depth of from four to six inches over thetiles, or from twelve to eighteen inches where notilt's are used. Clean up old watercourses, and seethat the mouths of the main dra'mB are kept clearof weeds and sediment.

GRASS LINO.—Should frost set in, it ought to betafcen advantage of to finish all top-dressing in theshape of compost remaining over from last month.When spread, if the weather will permit, use abush, or, what is still better, n chain and tineharrow to divide and spread the lumps. Boll aasoon after as possible with a heavy roller. Whenartificial manure is used, a calm day should beselected for sowing it, and if spread by band, theground should be marked out in breadths to ensureits regular distribution. A stroke of the harrowbefore sowing will answer this purpose.

VKTCKBS.—The weather being favorable, vetchesmay be sown in dry, sheltered ground the last weekof this month j a mixture of i-ye will keep it fromlodging, and will add to the bulk of food. Threebushels of vetches, and half a bushel of rye, willsow tbe inBQ acre.

STOBX CATTLE should be well sheltered frombiting blasts, or exposure in cold, damp fields. Theyshould be carefully housed in open sheds, withyards attached, that they may go in or go out atpleasure, and should get a sufficient supply of foodto keep them in healthy growing condition. Apound or two of linseed cake per day, for eachbeaBt, will diminish the liability of their beingattacked by black leg.

STALL FZKDINO.—Cattle in the stalls should bepushed forward as rapidly as possible, slightly in-creasing the artificial food as they approachmaturity.

DAIBT COWS should -be moderately fed withroots and hay, or fresh oat straw, and, if givingmilk, 2 or 3 lbs. of best linseed cake, or 4 or 6 lbs.of palm-nut meal per day, should be used. Thecow-shed should be well ventilated, but free fromdraughts, as, when kept too warm, the cows are aptto (ret cold when let out in the morning.

BBKKDINO EWXS require great attention duringthin and next month. See that they get a sufficientquantity of nutritious food, avoiding the nse offrosted turnips, or recently pulled mangel, whichare apt to purge. Bemovevtbem to a dry, well-sheltered paddock as the lambmg-season approaches.A few lumps of rock salt placed in the field incovered troughs, so that they can lick it, will con-tribute to their health. :

FATTINQ SBKKP should get a good supply ofhand-feeding to prepare them as soon as possiblefor the butcher. Damaged com may be profitablyused for this purpose.

FIOB should be kept clean and warm, well, bnnot over fed. Breeding sows will do well on pulpedroots, having a little bran or pollard, previouslysteeped in hot water, mixed with them—a mode offeeding worth consideration, now that fuel is soscarce. Leave a supply of coal cinders, or smallcoal, within their reach ; they are found to have ahealthy action on the stomach.

MISCELLANEOUS.—Cart manure fro-r. loose boxes,low sheds, &c., direct to tho field in which it is tobe used, forming it in large heaps, well raised in thecentre and covered with earth, to throw off the rain,and. retain its volatile gases. Let no material go towaste which will increasb the value and bulk of themanure heap. Get the . fences and roads repaired,and new ones formed when required. Have all farmimplements, carts, &c, put in thorough repair, andpainted, ready for use at a moment's notice.

DAIETINO.—The udder of tbe cow iB the organ inwhich milk is formed, but, strange to say, sciencehas not yet progressed far enough to bo able to statepositively, the way in which thiB is done. Theadder,: or mammal gland, as it is also called, is per-forated in all directions by many very fine ducts,always ending in larger ones, which finally leadthe secreted milk to the cisterns, one of which hasits place just above tbe teats which form the out-let . If tbe skin is taken off an ndder, it may beseen that it consists of two longitudinal glands,each having two teats ; consequently one mustmilk at tbe same time at one of the teats on theright side, and at one of tho left side of the-animalto excite the ' secretion of the two glands at once,which'is essential to obtain always a good yield.Tbia being not generally known, one may find inmany agricultural districts the habit oil milkingfirst the. two teats of one side,'and afterirarfti'thoseof the other. ' Milking :must be done with punc--tnolity and'attention, as irregular-milking soonspoils .even the: best cows. It ought to be remem-bered that~when the ndder is fall of milk, no moremilk is formed before the adder is again emptiesto: a' certain degree. Cows which give a great dealof milk will yield much less, therefore, if the-m ilk-ing times are too far apart. If tbe cows are milkedtwice daily, the milking hours ought to be 5 or 6o'clock A.M. and 5 or 6 P.K. If three milkinjfs aday are tbe custom, they ought to be 4 or 6 A.M. ;at noon, and at 7 or 8 P.M., to get as nearly as pos-sible equal parts of time between, the! milking,which is of very good effect towards preserving the,height and stability of secretion.' Cleanliness is oneOf' the most important matters to .insure success, in.dairying. The dairy moid ought to wash'her hands'just ' before wilVng, and put a kerchief over berhead BO that no hairs <»n fall into the milt ' Whenthe' 'milling' is to begin the milker tnpat take carp'not t<>f tighten the cow by rough oiaage, br'.touch-ing her suddenly, without getting .her' attention,first, because a fright is often foUowed.by keeping;back'the milk. It is very necessary to watch, ser-vants, as' many a cow has been"spoilt in this, way.Wanhing the. udder from, time to time is absolutely,necessary. Indeed it : ought to be 'done .'at faastonco a day.- Just before milking is the best time,when the. udders may be . washed'with,' lukewarmwater- and' sponge,' and dried with a cjean, coarsecloth, j Special attention must be given tq.waebingaway ¦'all the particles'of dirt,'as they wool*} fallinto the milk; and wriouriy endanger its keepingqualities.

A FBENCH P00BH0USETHX POOR SOPPOETID WITHOnT TAXATIO OX

DKQBADATION.' v(By a Rtemi Visitor). (

The word pauper is unknown in France ; <?Urneighbours use only the word " poor" to distdngubb.those who are in distress and require assistant).As there is no system of legal relief in that count|y,save in so far as lunatics and infants are concerned,there is no need of any distinctive appellation :orthe'recipients of charity, whether publio or private.And as the name, of pauper is unknown so also isthe class or type absent. All who are so unfortu-nate as to fall into distress are regarded as objektsof pity, and the hand whicb relieves does not ven-ture to point the finger of scorn at tho recipient fcfcharity. ThiB fact may be fully observed n_idBtudied by a visit to the great poorhouse, or hosp'.-o,at Blcetre, which receives a large number of theinfirm indigent poor of tho male sex, who belong tothe city of Paris and its Suburbs. It is generallysupposed that Bicetre is an nBylum for the insaneand none others, but this is not the cose. Whilstthere are only a few hundred madmen in the build-ing, there are fully 2,000 aged and infirm men, whoare there quietly ending their dajB in peace andcomfort. \

The hospice is composed of a voat range 0?buildingB, in the centre of which are several laijecourts or quadrangles planted with trees. Tieinsane, among whom are many criminals, are co'a-fined in a prison on one side, and quite apart frotnthe main building. Bicetre stands on high grou.idon tho south-east of Paris, and it is quite wor,hwhile to take the tram from the Boulevard St.Michel to a point about a mile outside the Porvcd'ltalie, in order to enjoy the magnificent view pftho city which is obtained from, the windows a.Mterraces of the hospice. The day pf my visit wf\-unusually brilliant even for a Parisian autumn, at*dI am suro I never saw a moro delightful view tht-nthe glittering domes and palaces of the brightest ifall capitals. Thus the poor have ever in sight tbucity they love so well and have lived in BO 1ODJ \The theory of the French 3ystem of public assi*tance, which differs toto cwlo from a poor-law, inar.uiuuu uo iu ID u y umiy vuiuuuiijr, uiuugu uureiunyorganised method of charitable relief, has for it^ground principle the maxim that in giving help tothe poor, the family tie should, as far as possible, blrespected. Out-door relief IB, as in Elberfeld anlin many English unions, the rule, indoor relief th jexception. Tbe notion of making the poorbousc,or hospice, a test of the genuineness of the destitu-tion of applicants for assistance has never entere\the mind of a French administrator of charitabl;funds—hospitals, hospices, and bureaux de bienfa-tance, being all under one general managementThose who need assistance are assigned to one orother of these charitable institutions, according t<<the nature of their needs and the extent of theirdestitution. If the indigent applicant has a horn-)of any sort or kind whatever, he is allowed to conktinue in it, and he is helped there. It is only whethe has no home of his own and no frionds who wiAtake him, and when bis age or infirmities render i':impossible for him to keep a roof over hiB head,that he becomes a fitting candidate for a vacancy ina hospice. To such an extent is the principle ofnon-interference with borne life carried, that host'pices are allowed to distribute a fourth, or eveimore, of their incomes in the form of pensions U>the deserving poor. Many of these establishment*'have for some time until recently been in the habitof dispensing the whole of their revenues in thiimanner ; and, according to a report which was1recently published, ir, appeared that as much as

: five millions of francs wore distributed throughout!: Franco as out-door pensions.

No one can visit the hospice at Bicetre without]being Btruck by the extreme comfort, and even

! brightness and cheerfulness, of tbe establishmeti''i The inmates do not appear to be conscious < .'¦haying lost one grain of the self-respect which is

i universal among the French ouvriert. Nor is there: any reason why they should. They are simply un-jfortunate men,' whom old age or misfortune has'surprised whilst engaged in the struggles of life.They accept gratefully . the , assistance which isgiven cheerfully. ' They are precisely in the posi-tion'of the inmates of old^mdowed olmshouses inEngland ; and indeed, in many ways, the compari-son is a fair one, for the French hospices, are oftenrichly endowed institutions possessing broad acresand much funded property.. It is, however, a goodthing that all, or nearly all, these institutions areat least partly dependent on the voluntary sub-scriptions of the charitable, in order to be able to goon from year to year with their work of love andusefulness. But perhaps the consideration whichmore than any other removes the sense of discreditof any kind from the inmates of the hospice, is thefact that his very presence therein is a proof ofgood character. No person who has brought him-self to ruin by drink, or-dissipation, or crime canlook forward to ending his days in a hospice, as anEnglishman of a corresponding class would lookforward to the workhouse. What becomes of thesain France it is not easy to Bay. They disappearfrom the face of the earth ; at any rate, they.findno place at Bicetre or other similar establishments.The- inmates of Bicetre are clothed, lodged, andfed in a liberal manner.' The sleeping-rooms andday-rooms are large,' airy, and , thoroughly wellwarmed. Each man has a lock cupboard of hisown, in which he may keep any little property homay possess. I saw more than one studiously-in-clined inmate sitting by his bedside engaged withbooks of considerable erudition. But on a fine daythe benches in the shady quadrangles below are thefavourite resort of the inmates. Three days a weekthey can go out from six in the morning till nine inthe evening, a privilege of which all who can are:glad to avail themselves, although many of themmanage to return for their raeals.

distress. Unfortunately tho proof is only too eaajtso far as the town of Dungarvan is concerned.Those who reside in it, and are most intimatelyacquainted with its condition and requirements,have proved their conviction of the urgency of thodistress by the best of nil possible U'8t, viz., byhaving put their hands in their pockets to relieve it(hear hear). At the meeting held the other day inthis Town Hall, a number of the townspeople, oameforward readily with their subscriptions, amounting inmany cases to JBS, and that at a time- when they them-selves aro not too woll off , and aro hit by the har<times severely enough. Will anyone pretend thashrnwd men of business wonld be fools enough to handoat fivo-ponnd notos in ordor to create a false impres-sion of distress whore no real distress existed ? Thenwe havo the whole body of the Catholio olorgy alsocoming forward to Bubaoriba—even the ourates, whoaro proverbially not a wealthy class of men, handing insubscriptions which, in proportion to their income,must bo considered largo (hoar, hear). At their headcomes the respected prioat ef the parish, a gentlemanocenpying a high position in this diocese When thooharacUr and position of thoso gentlemen are tokeninto account, no doubt can bo entortainod of tho sin-carity of their convictions. Thon we have hundreds ofunemployod men coming to the poorhouso demandingwork, in ordor that they may bo ablo to anprort them-solres and their families by honost industry, and con-tent to wait for honrs in tho chanco of getting a fairhearing. Having theso facts in view , it is impossible todeny that great and exceptional distress prevails in thetown, and it is aggravated by tho faotthat one resourcewhich has hitherto stood thorn in good stead—viz., thocredit system—has collapsed. At other tamcB whenomploymont has been acaroe, tho shopkeepers had beanwilling to let labouring'men of good character havemeal on crodit, relying for paymont when employmentshould return, but tho bad times have put an end tothis. Bad debts, bankruptcy, low prices, and stognantrade havo crippled tho shop keepers, who aro obligoito keep tight hold of what is loft to them, and daro notrun tho riak of giving credit. The distress ia of suohamount and oxtont, that private charity is qnito inade-quate to meet it , nor could the burden be thrown upontho ratepayora without making paupers of the rate-payers themselves. Tho guardians have shown theirbelief in tho existonco of tho distress by petitioning thoLocal Government Board to allow them to give out-doorrelief for tho next few weeks to ablo-bodied mon. Theydo thia from tho feeling that, even if tho atarved-outlabourers could be induced to como into the workhouse,the offoct would bo perfectly demoralizing; but if thegranting of out-door relief to tho able-bodied bedemoralizing, their rcsidenco within tho walls of thepoor-house would bo moro so. I boliovo it to be con-trary to the spirit of the poor-law to give cither in-dooior ont-door relief to tho able-bodied. _ Tho poor-lawwas intendo 1 for tho ordinary pauperism of ordinarytimes, as a refuge for the aged and infirm, not for thomaintenance of tho able-bodied population of thecountry in timea of cxtroardinary distress, when thelabourite noDulation aro reduced to pauperism and theratepayers themselves aro too crippled to help them,It is right that tho Government snonld step in to therescue (applansej. I must say that the sohemo olrelief of which notdoo was given tho othor day is evenmoro liberal than wo could have ventured to ask.They are now prepared to advance loans, repayablein 35 years, at one per cent, interest, and with twoyears of grace to those districts which aro includedin tho schcdnlo. I am glad this meeting was called,and that the subscriptions I h&vtt alludod to were con-tribnted before the new scheme was published. If , haaddition to tho liberality of tho terms I havo mentionedthe formalities aro also so simplified as to obviate delayin giving effect to loans, the Govornment schemeleaves nothing to be desired. With regard to tho dis-tress in othor parts of tho union, although it is not sooverwhelming as in the west of Ireland, still there is agood deal of what I might call Blow starvation goingon, owing to tho failure of the potato crop and want ofomployment, arising from tho poverty of the farmers,and also the collapse of tho credit system to which 1have already referred. I mysolf have given practicalevidence aa to my own conviction of the reality of thodistress in tho mountain districts many months ago,when voluntary I gavo a remission of rent to my ten-ants there before the agitation commenced, and longbefore thero was any talk of Government loanB. Itook these stops because I was impressed by (he suffer-ings entailed on the mountain population by the failureof their or ope, followed by a long and severe winter,and by a wet, angenial spring and snmmor. InOctober last a commissioner, who travelled through thecountry, aent in a Tory " roae.colonred" roport to theGovernment M to tho condition of this country, bnt hevisited the oonntry in tho middle of tho potato harvest,which, although a comparative failnrc in the mountains,was better in the low lands—at all events, the gettingof it in, such aa it was, gave plenty of employment.There was also at that timo a run of fine weather, snchas we had not had for twelve months, and the countrywas looking its boat , and tho ovidenco of distress wasnot at time perceptible (hoar, hear). Bnt let that com.miasionor now visit tho mountain districts, let him gointo the. hill side cabins and take off the lids of thepatato pots, and what will ho see in them ? Why,cither email,unripe or unsound potatoes, or else woody,ill-grown turnips (hear, hear). Snch food is quiteunfit to maintain the population in health and strength,and must pave tho way to fever. It may be said, whydo they not go into the poor-houao ? Why, becausepoor as their dwellings aro, and miserable as is theirfood, their foelings of family affection aro as deep andas warm as thoso whose lot is cast ia more prosperoushomes (loud applause). They know that to go into theworkhouse is to break np their homos—husband andwife, parent and ohildren, will be separated. Thesehomes and family tics aro all they have in this world,and can you be surprised at their clinging to them eolong as a boiling of turnips remain left to pnt in thepot to koop soul and body together (hear, hear, andapplause). No great harm, thank God, ia done yet.Providence has fought for us hitherto by sending amost unexampled run of flno weather, but a severefrost may set in, and- then their sufferings would bogreatly aggravated (hear, hear). At all events, it isnot wise to wait until calamity has actually occurred ;precautions ought to be taken beforehand, and the one-all sufficient remedy to avert distress is—employment(hear, hear). . Mr. Stuart concluded by (stating, aa afurther proof of tho existing distress, that there werenow 92 workhouse inmates more than this time twelvemonths, and also that there waa an increaae in tho out-door relief by 104 cases. He begged to movo that thoreport of the committee, as read, be adopted. Mr. B.J. USSBKB briefly seconded the resolution.

Bev. P. F. FLTNN then proposed tho following :—" Retolved—Th&t the landlords who hold estates in thovicinity of Dungarvan are, in au oapecial manner, iden-tified with the, rights and interests of tho destitutepopulation of the town, and we expoot they will not failin tho proaent oriaie to evince, by tho Generosity of theircontributions, a just sympathy with thoso who arevictims of tho distress now prevalent, and likely to con-tinue." The rev. gentleman said that property hadits duties as well as its rights, and nobody could deny

: that'to aid tho poor~and distressed waa ono of thohighest duties of those holding properties. Moreenpeciallyshouldlandlordshold'ng property in the neigh-bourhood of this town do something to alleviate the de-plorable condition of the poor, because lands were letait a high rent, in consequence of their proximity, to themarket (hear, .hear). Tho Government took its onefrom the landlords of Ireland, and was guided by thoaction of the landlords towards the poorer section ofthe population. - It, therefore, behoved evory landlordwho had the welfare of Ireland and its:people at heartto come forward and, show by the generosity.of hissubscription that distress really existed, and that thoGovernmbnt should, certainly come to their assistance.If every landlord in the.district had acted in the samemanner as Messrs. Stuart and Uaaher, the Governmentwould not be in a position to refuse, plaoing.this townand union- under the schedule for the relief of the dis-tressed dutriot* (hear, hear). >

Captain WILUAK GIBBONS , ia secondinff the resolu-tion, referred to the fiheefulness with which snbsorip-tions wow[handed,to tho collecting committe,. many per-sons contributing.f&r beyond their means.¦Tho Chairman,. on:.;rjaing to put the resolution, said

(Dr. Cleary) went to thehouse: of ,this generous man and handrd him back 80s.That man who felt suoh a .pity, for his fellow creaturesin their hour; of. need waa Pat O'Brien, of Blackpool(cheers)., :Th« resolution was unanimously paxed.

DUNGARVAN AND THE LATE LOBD STUABTTO THB KDITOR OT THX WATSBFOBD NIWB.

Duntrarvan Union, 9th Jan., 1880.LIEAE SIB,—At tho guardians meeting of the above

union, held on the 1st inst., Mr. William O'Brien ap-pealed to me, aa clerk of the union, to state whethor,in the observations which wero made at a recentmeeting of the Dungarvan Town Commissioners by Mr.Thomaa O'Connor, ho.w as correct in saying that " thelato Lord Stuart never did-anything for tho town bnt tofill tho workhouao with paupore." It afterwards ea-oaped Mr. O'Brien to givo me an opportunity to reply tohis question, and lost misconception should ariso from,this omission,I beg leave to state from tho official know-ledge which I poasoas, that there ii not the shadow ofground for tho statement attributed to Mr. O'Connor.I have before mo a letter written from a sick-bed bythe late Lord Stuartde Dories, on tho 17th of January,1818, to tho thon Clerk of the Union. Tho occasionof it was a contemplated motion for the appointment ofpaid guardians, and in the course of tho letter he usesthoso words :—

" In this electoral division, I nevor failed to attendthe weekly meeting of tho relief committeo until ill-ness deprived mo of tho power of so doing."j [Tho object for whioh theso committees waa formedin tho sovorol diviaiona was to obviate tho crowdingof tho workbousol.

Twonty-six yeara later, at tho meeting af *ho (runr-diana of thia union, held on tho 12th of February, 1374—JohnB. Dower, EBq. , J.P., presiding j olcvon othorguardians present—tho following resolution, proposedby Honry A. Fitzgerald, Esq., J.P., and seconded byBichard J. Ussher, Fsq. J.P., was passed unan-monsly :—

" DEATH OP LORD STUART DK DECIXS.—Resolved—Tho Board of Guardians of Dungarvan Union havelearnod, with foeliuga of profound regret, intelligenceof tho death of the Right Hon. Lord Stuart de Dories—a nobleman who, from the date of their formation,during a period oxtending considerably over a quarterof a oontury, occupied that position amongat thorn towhich his own distinguished merit most justly entitledhim ; associated with this body as Chairman, thoEight Hon. Lord Stuart has, at times when famintpressed most severely upon the homes of the poor , ancrendered the adminiitrationof relief no easy task forboards of guardians, invariably manifested, in an emin-ent degree, theso qualities of paternal care and aoli-nitudo in tho alleviation of their distress, which renderthem gratofnl to his same : whilst tho apt intelligence,patient inquiry, and forbearance, which bo brought toDear upon the guidauco of our proceedings, cannot failto associate his memory with feelinga of deep sorrowat hix departure from amongst as, and of sympathy forthe one who so worthily succeeds him, and to whom webeg to tender this tribute of reepectful condolence."—I remain, dear sir, yours truly,

JOHN S. BOTLE, Clerk of Union.

THE COBBAGHMOBB HUNT.About two years ago the painting of a picture,

bearing the above title, waa commenced by Mr. W.Osborne, B.H.A. This gentleman's fame as an ani-mal painter is already established, and no words ofpraise from us could add to his reputation in thedepartment of art -which he has adopted, and forwhich bis genius is so eminently suited. Himselfon ardent admirer of animal life in its noblest deve-lopments, Mr. Osborne'8 peculiar power seems to liein his ability to impart to his portraitures an unmis-takable reality and life-like truthfulness, and whenwe say that the picture under notice IB in thisrespect his happiest effort our readers can fully rea-lise our conception of " The Curraghmore Hunt" asa work of art. The size of the picture is about 7ft.by 4ft., and within this space 59 portraits of mem-bers of the hunt and hunt'servants, nearly all onhorseback, with tbe full pack of hounds, are compres-sed ; but the grouping is so admirably arranged thateach figure Btands out clear and' distinct from tbeothers, and the complete absence of confusion is nottbe least attractive feature of this beautiful ensemble.Phe scene, too, has been selected with exquisitetaste on an elevated portion of the demesne over,looking the palatial home of tbe Beresfords.Appearing in the background is the castellatedsummit of the court itself. At one side those fineold trees which adorn the demesne, are seen, whileon the other stretches away that magnificent moun-tain; range which imparts such a charm to the scenicbeauty of Curraghmore. In the centre of thegroup a prominent figure la that of the Marquis ofWaterford mounted on a favourite hunter, with thebounds joyously gathering around and looking upto him with an expression of delight snd welcometruly indicative of the fondness of these faithfulanimals for their admiring master. The adjoining

¦portrait is that of his Royal Highness the Duke of¦Connaught, while to the right of the Duke the;graceful figure of tbe Marchioness is seen to muchadvantage, and just in front of her ladyship ia hereldest son, the young.Earl of Tyrone, sitting on hisdonkey, and watching the jolly dogs with childishdelight. An old and faithful servant of the familystands doee to the donkey's head, for Johnny Byan'sduty, although be is called the second horseman, isevidently to care and direct this youthful scion of ahouse to which he is so long attached. ' We have hottime, nor is it necessary that we should, referseriatim, to each of the portraits which Mr. Osbomehas so truthfully put before us, although to,do sowould be to us a work of pleasure, as nearly all ofthem represent men whose names are familiarin most brancheR . of sport, but who are especiallywell known In tbe hunting field. Besides the por-trait of tbo Marchioness alluded to above, thepicture contains four other female figures*, and inhis painting of the Dowager Marchioness, MissBloomfield, Mrs. Bookey, and Mrs. . Gandy, theartist has shown that his powers of delineation arenot confined to the robu6ter subject, but that heeandraw with truthfulness and. effect tbe finest andmost delicate .feature of the gentler sex. Thehounds, too, are admirably pourtrayed, and one caneasily imagine whilo. looking at the picture that hecan observe the friendly wagging, of their tails andthe action of their muscles. lndeed,,throughonttbe entire of this splendid picture a person hardlyknows whether to admire most the tastefulnoBS ofarrangement, tbe truthfulness of portraiture, or theclassic finish in delineation which distinguish it as awork of art, and giva it, at the same time, a refinedand elevated to"e.

It has beon purchased by a number:of LordWaterford's admirers for presentation to:his lord-ship, but will be on view for some time at Mr.Cranfield'8, 115 Grafton-street.by whom it has beenpublished. '

The noble Master of the Curraghmores is a scionof a race that certainly never pandered to " Irishsedition." He himself, in. common with themembers of his family, alien jh-religions faith, aswoll as in political principles to th,a grea,t mass .ofhis tenantry and dependants, yet who hears of theMarquis of - Watorford receiving a "threateningletter," or having to - seek'the protection of thepolice for the enforcement of his just chums t Tbeexplanation is simple. Like a*any of his immediatepredeceisors, the present Marquis of Waterforddelighted to live at home,'sharing heartily- in thesports and; pastimes, loved, by hi» fellow-country-men ; knowing his humbler neighbours intimatelyhe can appreciate their difficulties and sympathisewith their wants, and thus a good mutual under-Btandicg.based on mutual goodwill and forbearance,is established between him. and,-the. farmers and,labourers on bis extensive estates.T-Xriih Sportimon.
