But in the event of a war with the United States we should have to increase those 16,000 to at least 15,000, unless we made up our minds +o lose Ireiand altogether. This would leave about 25,000 to defend England and to aid the civil power wherever wanted. With our trade destroyed by your cruisers the price of food, clothing and every other neces- Sary at war rates, little work to be done, and, there- fore, Wages low, We should have plenty of discon- tent and rioting in the manufacturing and the coal and mining districts. Therefore 25,000 would barely be enough for our wants, Where, then, are we to get men from to send abroad? The truth 1s, and our Ministers Know it fult well, that in the event of a war we could neither defend Canada nor dream of effecting any landing in Ame- rica. If we happened to do the latter the very wo- men and children would rise up with one accord as ourenemies. But it would be very dierent with you. The moment we were at war no doubt but that an American force would land in Ireland, where it would be received with open arms by the whole population, Thousands of the men who com- posed that force would merely be returning home, and would find friends and relatives allover the country. I have heard doubts expressed whether an invading army could be fed tn Ireland, but when we remewber the vast number of cattle and pigs that are daily sent from that country to England I think there could be no doubtin the matter. For bread, flour and several other items the force would have to depend upon the American fleet, or, at least, upon such supplies as could reach them from the sea. But it must not be forgotten that in every war supplies pour in from other countries than ‘those chiefly concerned in the quarrel. In the Crimea the English and French troops were supplied not by their own countrymen alone, but by numerous ad- venturers from Italy, Spain, Algiers, Egypt, and even from the United’ States. “An army in the fleld is always @ good customer, and where there is a profitable market seliers will never lack.

Gmigration from Ireland—The Strength of England by Land and Sea=The Country Not So Strong as in 1S12—Her Recruiting Grounds Dralned. LONDON, May 28, 1869, In some of my pfevious communications I have more than oacé Made mention of the great tide of tinigration which is flowing from that country towards the United States with increased force avery year, As I eit down to write this lettera paragraph in the London Daily News of the 2ist is recalled to my mind, and I copy it for the informa- tion of your readers, merely mentioning that the writer is a special correspondent of that paper, who bas for some weeks past been engaged in collecting information respecting Ireland from various parte of that country. Here is what he says:— Thaye not at hand the statistics of the emigration from Ire- jand for the last _mo o, but it must be very great, T shonid gay very much | of what it was in the jonding period of last yoar.

And this leads me to the main subject which I Want to discuss in thia ietter—the strengl of Eng- A-by land and sea. Tact Ihave given above will serve to prove assertion, or rather one portion of the assertion, maboutto make and upon which an immense dal more May, Gad will, hinge than many of ns on | this side of the Aantic have notion. It is true Fagland ts not so strong as sie was in 1812 To be. thearmy. In 1812, which was the last time | «ured swords with America, there were four pourees from whieh we could get almost as many juired, The Orst of these was the class , mochanies and ethers, who lived ia our | largo 2, And of whom @ number were constantly witout work and glad enough to eniist in order to fed tip. It ap Qrl@an CAN get employment he certainly will not Consolidated iato one people than ever you were. You are in every way self-supporting, and do not de- pend upon any country in the worid for your sap- plies, We might blockade New York and New Orieans for months without ratsing the price of food. But if London or Liverpool were cut off trom their supplies from abroad tor one week there would be @ famine in the land, You have depots and receivers of all kinds of food more than enough to feed your whole nation for twelve montis round; we are living from hand to mouth, You would, as you did during the long civil war, actas one man against the enemy; we are sadly divided, class a@zainst class, and in- terest against interest. Your country, large as itts, is very compact, indeed; we have colonies to guard all over the world, and to protect our trade in every quarter of the globe would require all the vessels of war that we could muster, But—and this would be our great source of weakness—more than all other matters which would tell against us, ts the fact that whereas if your North aud South join hands and fight togethér there would not be a disaffected man on your side; but we should not only have Iretand and her peasantry siding with you, but a vast num- ber of Ins soldiers in our army, who would cer- tainly not wish our cause any good. The Irisumen in our ranks would fight as well as any men living could against apy other foe. In India, in the Crimea, at the Cape of Good Hope and in New Zea- land they have—for they constitute by far the most numerous body of men in our infantry and artillery corps—really won our battles for us. But would they fight against their owa countrymen? If Fentan- istu cropped up every now and then—and it does so far more than was generally known or ever made pudlic—during the Fenian rtots in Ireland, what would it do when our — saw before them a com- pact, well organized, well fed, weil to do army of their own countrymen? Fentanism among our Irish soldiers is sleeping, but it 1s not de: It might not—most likely would not—ever revive under ordinary circumstances; and huadreds of men who, if not actually sworn Fenians are Fentans in their hearts, would fight gallantly for England in any part oi the world except America, and against aay ar- my except an Irish American one. Very truly has the special correspondent of the Daily News in Ireland, whose letters l have quoted from above, said that, “although the wall that issues from the Lrish heart when the moment of separation comes approaches to something like despuir, the yearning for the ‘Land of the West’ has seized the whole workiu population.” And to this | may add a very signiii- fact, told me some weeks ago by an English oer seTViag in @ regiment that is mainly composed of Irisumen. He sald that there was much less drmking than formerly amoug the men, and a great deal more money thaa there used to be in the regi- mental savings bank, The men, as he said, are put- ting by their pay in order to emigrate to America. The sober and steady soldiers find their way, sooner or later, to the United States the intemperate and spendtiirifts remain with ns. A fact lke this goes farto show what would be the result of a war if irish regunents in our service were brought face to face with Irish troops from America. There was no such feeling in 15i2, It was comparatively plain sailing with us in those days; nad yet we did not get the best of the quarrel.

'e feel nasi yur high mii The London Press on Mr. Motley’s Mission. ‘The London Times of the ist inst. gays:—We do not presume to anticipate Mr. Motley’s comm unica- tions, but there is probably substantial truth in the statement that his instructtons are very widely dif- ferent from tue tenor of Mr. Sumuer’s speech. Such is the opinion of the American press, and for defi, nite information on the subject we may refer the reader to the letter from the United States which we publish to-day. The eifect produced in England by the rejection of the treaty and the specen wich ac- companied it has produced a more cautious uf not a more friendly demeanor on the part of the Americans. It is justly observed that, though a fortnight ago they were declaring that Mr. Sumner expressed with perfect accuracy the national opinion, lus speech ts now all but repudiated. Weare wid that Mr. Motiey’s in- structions are to be generally frieudly with the British government, and vo avoid anything that may comprornise the relations between the two countries, It is furthermore said that he will not take the int- tative in reopening tue Alabama coatroversy, but that if our government make proposais he will be repared to maintain the American view, a chief feature of which is that Engiand commitied a wrong- ful act im the neutrality proclamation. We are not informed what" practical injury the American government attributes to the prociama- tion, or how far it considers us pecuntarily liable. It may be that if the neutrality proclamation came into question the difference besweea Mr. Sumner and the President's government would prove to be only one of degree. but for the present, asywe under- stand, no new demand has been addressed to us, and Mr, Motley will enter on is duties without the prospect of aby immediate controversy. If this be the intention of the American goverament, the course to be taken by our own is obvivus. We have done all that our own judgment suggested, or that ‘was suggested to us by the American government, for the examination of the Alabama claims. We have concluded a treaty in which every original demand of the Americans was conceded, and the dispute placed in @ regular train for settlement; this treaty being In ali its main propositions the work of the American Secretary of state. It has been rejected, and it is clearly the duty of tie Power Which rejected it to show in what it was de- ficient and to invite consideration to any new pro- y All that can be expected of our government is that it shall be ready to examine any new proposals which may be made and to consider whether they pent mali more just and equitable solution than that arrived last autumn. If it be true that the neutrality proclamation is made & grievance of by the government which has sent Mr. Motiey, we are bound, of ree, to listen tO any argument which may be adduced, but tt is scarcely possible that any good purpose Would be served by raising such a discussion, Even if there could be a question of the right of the British government, or of any independent government, to issue such a prociama- tion, there 1s good reason for mal ining that the one in question was issued as much tn the interests of North a8 of South. So it was understood at the time, and 80 it was accepted up to the hour when it occurred to politicians in Ameri¢a to make it a ground of complaiut. This has been convincingly shown in Mr, Forster's speech, and it is the view taken by other friends of the North in England, Whose accuracy of recollection can no more ve doubted than their sincerity and truth, ‘The London News alludes to the mission ip the fol- lowing terms:— We are giad to be abie 9 conclude from Mr. Mot- loy’s speech at Liverpool that he does not come to London without instructions, Some of the Ameri- can papers aré already complaining of the want of | any definite policy by General Grant's government, | and itis therefore satisfactory to find that on the | question of ite relations with this country that gov- 1 | ernment not only has a policy, vuta policy of concil- | afton and of peace, It is useless to hide tho j fact that Mr, Motley comes at a critical | pening of gut international elation’.

It is a word of which the most imaginative among us cannot realize the horrors, Mr. Goldwin Smith sees in it the triumph of the reactionary party of England. We see in it the triumph of the énemy of mankind. What is all our boasted Christianity, civilization, freedom, literature, if we can still prate of letting murder loose over half the habitable globe, and of transforming the arts of peace into the plans and projects of destruction? Let us, on whichever side of the Atlantic our lot may be cast, regard thoughts of horror as mere distempered dreams, and turn once more to the prosecution of business, well knowing that where the two governments are aul- mated by such sentiments as those to which Mr. Mouey gives utterance, the arrangement of all differ- ences is a mere question of time and paticuce. The Lords and the Lrish Church Bill. (From the London Saturday Review.) The Review remarks that whether the peers adopt a dignified and courageous course and avert the im- putation of defeat by recognizing that tt is not for them to struggle, or whether they grow ane and rush into ill-considered and ineffectual opposition, will in a great degree depend on the tone given to their debates by the principal speakers. There are, we believe, good grounds for believing that the leaders of the House will show wisdom, tact and moderation. The three principal leaders of the ma- jority, if Lard Derby does not think fit to take an active part, are Lord Cairns, Lord Salisbury and Lord Carnarvon. Of these three peers Lord Carnar- von actually voted last year for the Suspensory bill, and Lord Salisbury enunciated the doctrine that & hereditary assembly ought not to set itself against the clearly recorded decision of the whole nation. Lord Cairns will of course hoid the leading briet for the Irish Church, and he will make au excellent advo- cate’s speech, full of statements, tolerably accurate, and of arguments tolerably plausible, But Lord Cairns is not at all likely to separate himself from Mr. Disraeli. He will not be abie, when he speaks of rejecting the bill, to rid himself of the anxious thought whether 18 rejection would really suit Mr. Disraeli and Mr. Disraeli’s Chancellor, Now, what Mr. Disraeli must think of the Irish Church bill ls perfectly plain. He must long to get it out of the way, and to have done with a question which arrays against him a majority so compact and overwhelin- ing that all ——— is taken out of him, until he does not even think it worth while to propose im- of which he formal to stop the bill, but to convince the Irish Protestants that he is still their own Lord Cairns, that he has done his very best for them, and that if he could not help them it was because no one could. The bishops will naturally do all they can for the cause they have made their own; but they will sj under the great disadvantage that every one will know that they are but taking @ line which it 18 necessary they siould take, and that as the su | men Of a profession they are saying what the profession wishes should be said. dhe mild virtues of the Chancellor and the seductive good humor of Lord Granville will do all that is possible to sofien that victory of a minority Which must always ruffie the feelings of a majority. A brilliant hope, too, plays before the vision of the friends of the bill and of the govern- ment, and half in amasement, half in triumph, they catch up and repeat the rumor that the real champion of the Irish Church, the really bitter and vigorous adversary of the Ministry, 1s to be re- pment ia be ned a" eaten Irish Ciureh 1s long aged; but, if it could be damaged, its rain coaid not have been more surely confided to any advocacy than that of a man whose every argument in its favor will provoke the reflection how very much better an argument he would have found it if he bad but been Chancellor. Some outbursts of pitterness there will be of course; some mooning dissertations on the coronation oath; some whis) of panic stricken Orange peers. But if the leaders on both sides keep their tempers, and from the outset insist on the true consutuuional position of the Lords, the bill may not only pass, bat may so pass that its passing shall not be regarded by the puper house or by the public as a defeat of the Loras. Address of the Deputation from the Irish Church Conference. Adeputation from the Irish Church Conference, which recently held its session in Dubiin, waa pre- sented before the House of Lords on Saturday, the 2oth ultimo, when the following address was made:— May it please your Lordsbips--We deputation from the Irish Church Conference, lately con- vened in Dublin by the Archbishops of the Irish provinces of the United Chnrch of England and Ireland. That Conference was elactod by the clergy and lalty of every parish thronch- out Ireland.

The French Blections—A Review of the Simm ation. A Paris correspondent ia the Landon Times re- { tOtivinal to reject this revolutionary meagure, and there- 4 to Fe te ewe her Moat Gracious Majesty the | views the situation in France in a bold and offective manner. The following extract from tho comunl- nication referred to pictures the situation in very strong colors:— . The vote of Paris, of Lyons, of Bordeaux and of town in the empire is not a vote oO eh it rather open, undisguised and op) Dy an ‘un unqualified declaration of war, I told you much before as to the i cf importance of the in in Paris in the pame of M. Oilivie nt wWatle 1 of the bar. And tf you will at the true reason for the clean sweep of the representatives you will find in the end that they are blamed and dismissed for having sat six years in the House without having contrived any great and decisive event, and for hay uted the government uring six years without hat been able to over- throw it. They are relieved of duty, like worn out or inefMicient troops who have proved unequal to their task, and must go to the rear and give way for fresh assailants, That is the sense of fo Parisian elections, and speak out tor themselves so Thetr nostile meaning. But the Parisian elections are but the edge of the sword, and the blade and the handle of it have been worked out by the whole ape If you reckon the progress of the opposition by the seats, even that erroneous way of rec soning is in its favor, for we have already about fifty-five apy omit members elected, and the fifty-nine second lows, which will be taken next Sunday, cannot but doubie the num- ber. However, that method of reckoning ee won or lost 1s unfair for the opposition, especially in France, where the minorities are not only unrepre- sented, as formerly in England, but, what is worse, wilfully and cleverly crushed down by the web of our electoral circumscription, a3 I have more than once explained to you before. Therefore the only sure method of calculating the gress of the op) oreen ese ai ee “ Phase rec’ jettles votes collect a official or le can- didates by ‘their opponents of ali hues, and the results of that calculation are such as to surpass the hopes of the most sanguine adversaries of the present f Rati In 1863 about 5,300,000 electors voted ‘or Official candidates and 1,500,000 Inst them, This year we have about 4,000,000 electors true to official or agreeable candidates and 3,200,000 inst them—that 1s to say, only a majority of about 800,000 voices is left nm France to the existing government. To apprectate fully the meaning of these figures you must bear in mind that our functionaries of all kinds, high and low, are obliged to vote, and even ordered to canvass, for the government; and you know the incredible number of our aduinistrative community in France, where tt may be called a na- tion in the nation. Now, that number once deducted, what remains put a flock of country voters, o! whom no one can have a true idea who has not canvassed them? Any one who kuows by experience, and not by report, what the French easant is in & political sense and for electoral duty now wondering that such a number of them has been, by & superhuman etfort, detached from the oficial candidates. Not only the vast majority of our peasants cannot read, but ninety out of 100 of them believe that if they do not bring back to the ballot the very ticket sent to them by the Mayor they are committing an offence and exposing them- selves to a fine or some other punishment. To that very reason, and not at all to any political passion, 1s to be attributed the great number of voters, and the rareness of non-voting in the rural districts, ‘The truth is that the Freach peasant does not dare even not to vote and this explains the curious fact— that very often, if the husband is absent from the country or at work, his wife comes with the ticket, offering to vote in his stead, convinced that back the ticket is the only means of zeae out of harm's way. You could every- our villages hear the official ticket called the good ticket, /e bon bulletin—which does not ‘mean at all that they like it better than any other; it means only that it 1s the safe ticket, the ticket which any man can take and bring to the ballot without incurring trouble or coming to grief. Such is the state of universal suffrage and the notions prevalent upon it among our rural voters.

As tho period for the convocation of the Ecument- cal Council approaches the Court of Rome is becom- mg somewhat anxious at the indifferent if not absolutely hostile attitude of most of the Catholic governments of Europe with rogard {9 that scheme. ‘That Baarla should have taken the lead in propos- ing to the other governments to adopt preventive measures in case the object of the Counolt should be hostile to the interests of modern doolely” and the liberal institutions of the age, has pro- foundly irritated the Court of Rome. But it cannot surprise any one that a unanimous vote of the assembled bishops in favor of the Syllabus, the per- sonal infullibility of the Pope and the dogma of the necessity of his temporal power would be opposed by all governments not absolutely desirous of re storing the ecclesiastical dominion exercised during the daik ages. The intentions of France will only be known after the elections. But it is generally expected, and in- ferred also from the language of the Marguis de la Valette, that, after the reconstitution of the Legis- lative Assembly, the French troops will be recailed from the Pontifical dominions, and explicit de: will be made at Rome penne! the nature of the matters not purely ecclesii which are to be sub- mitted to the consideration of the General Council.
