Gammon.
We find the following paragraph in
one of onr exchanges—evidently the
work of one of the Scissors (not Caesars).
Mr. Stephens says that an "Irish Itepub
|ie” exists in Ireland complete in all its
]iarts. That no man is allowed to unito in
it who is not a sworn member of tho body.
The oath rises above all social, civil and
religions obligations. It is wore solemn
and superior to Priest or Pope.
Without disputing Mr. Stephens’ word,
we respectfully beg leave to differ with
him on this subject. There may be an
“Irish Republic,” but we are inclined to
the opinion that it is like tho great
American Republic, only more so—we
can't “see it.” If however, the Irish
Republic does exist, “complete in all
its parts,” where is it ? and wlmts’ tho
use of tearing up things generally and
kicking up a row on this side of the
water, to establish that which already
exists so “complete, in all its parts ?”
If such is the tact—if a Republic can
exist in so small a country as Ireland
without being discovered, what a pity
that we didn't understand the secret
before we went to war to establish a
Southern Confederacy. We could have
got up a Republic of our own, had all
our own officers, allowed no body to
come in who hadn't “taken the oath
as often as was necessary; and the
United States Government would have
been in as blissful ignorance of it, as
John Bull is now of that Irish Republic.
How much trouble, and blood, and
money might have been saved, if we
had only known Mr. Stevens' secret 1
But, alas! we didn’t know it; and alas 1
poor Ireland, neither does she know it.
It is doubtful it Mr. Stephens really
said that. Somebody must have mis
understood him. Or, if he did say it, it
was only to bolster up his cause, just as
our Southern papers used to do when
our unfortunate essay at self government
was on its “last legs.” We were in the
habit of bragging of our Republic, and
its firm foundation, and its glorious
prospects. But, alas! we waked up one
morning to hear the dreadful news that
our hopes had all vanished, that our Hag
was trailed in the dust, and ourselves
just startled from "the land where we
were dreaming.” Still it was a visible
Republic while it lasted. The world
saw it, and admired it, but would not
recognize it. With Mr. Stevens' Irish
Republic, it is different. It is hid in
the fastnesses of Galway, orimtnersed in
the waters of some beautiful Lough, or
shut up in some ancient castle of the
interior, where it can never see tiie light
of day, or give hope of success to its
well wishers in other lands.
In brief, the paragraph is all “gam
mon,” but it will deceive no sensible
man. The foolish invasion of Canada
will open the eyes of those who have
been bliuded bv the pictures of Irish
Independence and Irish Nationality,
and they will no longer follow the lead
of those who have so wantonly and
needlessly brought.!hem into trouble.
Street Sail Hoads.
A project is now on foot to build a
Street Rail Road Augusta to the
Sand Hills—a charter having been
granted for this purpose bv the Legisla
ture, and application for the necessary
permission will be made at the next
meeting of the City Council.
We understand that the route of the
proposed Road will be from the neigh
borhood of the City Cemetery to Broad j
Street, up that thoroughfare to some |
point near its Western terminus, thence
to the South, by the Factories and Flour
Mills, to the Summerville Plank Road ;
thence westwardly to the Sand Hills.
The project is an important one, and
of "reat interest to this community :
and it is to be hoped that no obstacle
will be thrown in the way of its early
accomplishment. In fact, we have
been informed that, if the necessary
right of way can be secured, the work
can be completed and the Road in run
ning order in four months’ time. It
will, as wc have already said, be of
great importance to the community;
and first, in the relief it will give our
people from the exactions of grasping
landlords. They can, for about the
sum they would have to pay, for a year
or two, in “rents in gold,” bo enabled
to build comfortable suburban resi
denccs, free from the heat and dust of
the city, and yet within a few min
utes’ ride of tho most distant portion of
it. This would compel the landlords to
i dismount from their high horses, and
be satisfied to take their pay as other
people take theirs’, in the currency of
the country, without reference to
fluctuations in gold. In this respect,
alone, the proposed Road must effect a
"reat. good. The ability to procure
i-heap residences convenient to the
business portion of our city, at reasona
ble rates, will induce people trom abroad
to come here and settle in our neigh
borhood ; while the rents in the city
being eventually forced down to rea
sonable rates, business men will not
hesitate to come into the city itsell —
thus increasing our population, our
business, and our general prosperity.
In minor details, also, will thig road he
beneficial. It will give our citizens the
means of taking occasionally or fre
quently, exercise and air—riding, for a
few cents, out into the country, enjoying
its healthy atmosphere, and returning to
their homes with but little loss of time.
It will also give to the merchant and
j his family, who reside without the city,
j the advantages of going and coming at
i convenient hours. And to those of our
citizens who wish to pass the Summer
months on the Hill or about there, tho
opportunity of doing so without neglect
ing their business.
These are a lew of the advantages
which the proposed Road will give; and
j it will be well lor our people, and for
| the Council, to give tho subject their
j early and earnest consideration.
