England aud Ireland.
We of the South—tho Ireland of
America—naturally sympathise
with and take great interest iu the
struggle now going on between
England and Ireland. From the
days of the first tlenrya, Kngiaud
has been endeavoring io subject the
high-spiritted Irish to her douiii.a-
tiou,but her purpose has n.-ver been
fully auoouiplisned. tinder the iron
rule of Cromwell, peace—the peace
of despair—, reigned among iheiu.
but as a On as the weight of hi-
mailed'hand was removed, Ireland
was again in a blase of excitement,
and ail the old auimosit.es wete at
once revived.
The great trouble between the
English and lush people a iaes
from the fact ihat K gli-hmeu
seem to feel that they are a better
and superior race to the Cells, and
that the latter are fit only to labor
for the benefiit of the lower; and
the Irish not being able to see the
matter iu this !ighi,the English
have eudeavored to whip them into
it. Naturally the lr.sh do not fan
cy this mode of argumeut, aud eu-
teitain no greet love tor tho-e who
use it; aud thereupon Euglishuieu
express great astuuishiueut aud in—
diguatiuu at sitch obtuseness and
ingratitude. It is a parallel case
with that of oars. The Nurthrn
people whippet! us badly, anil since
our subm setOQ they have been n-
o asingly abusing us as cut-tnroats
and perjured traitors; and unw al
ter the lupse of mure than ten yea s
of such treatment they hold up
their hands in holy horror upon the
least iotimat on that our love for
them dues eqjual that of Jonathan
for David. jAgaih, Englishmen are
not willing , any government ap
pointment shall be given to an
Irishman who is not ready to boot-
lick bis oppressors and do their dir
ty work; so' our Northeru.“breth-
ren" are not willing that any
Southern man should hold office
under the Federal government un
less he is ready and willing to
abuse his neigh hots and section aud
aid them in all their gigantic swin
dles and utidfi upon tiie national
treasury. ? When we reflect that
Ireland has for centuries, been suf
fering under oppression far more
grievouB thsu we have borne since
the late 'war, the wonder is, not
that a few cabins should he burned,
but that her emerald val'evs have
not loug since been crimsoned
with the blood id her oppressors.
One of Ireland’s greatest troubles
—a UuiiLle unknown to us— is the
curse of ‘absenteeism.” That is,
inuie than D tic tentl.s i f her l md- ;
owners reside iu Euglui.d and never
see their tenants; hence they can
uotbiug lor them further than to
wring from llnni the last shiilins
|K)ssiblo for the land they till.
Hence, the landlord, knowing
nothing about his tenant is perfict-
ly indifferent to his late,, nd in this
respect presents a inaiked contract
to the English landlord who takes
a pride in se>mg bts tenants prus
p« rous apd happy, Add to this the
tact that the landlords of the
Irish mver viset Ireland cX'ept by
proxy to collect their rents, and
then sprnd all these n nts in En
gland or upon the Continent, tie
wonder is, not that the Irish peas
ant is but littte better off than out
paupers, but that uuder a system
so vicious lreiaud'has not long since
become a desert and tenantless land.
Certain it is, that our own suany
South could not have borne up un
der so many oenturies of inisgovefn-
merit, oppression and lolly. If the
agitation that is now going on in
the United Kingdom shall result
it) giving Ireland resident land
owners, add transforming Irishmen
into British subjects in fact as well
as in nam, then indeed the emerald
will be one of the brightest and
moat valuable jewels in the British
crown. That it may be so are the
wish and prayer of millions of
American hearts, and nowhere else
are the wish nod prayer more fer
vent and sincere than here io our
ofrn suffering and sympathising
South.

Mails were rifled, burglaries com
