" IRISH INDUSTRIGS, Aversion of the Farm Hands to Labor-Saving Machinery, Inability to Compete With American Productsa—Perse- oution of Landlords. ‘Wonderfal Docreass in Population Enforoed Emigration. Correspondence of Philadelphia Press Gatway, July 27, This county has the reputation of being one of the most disturbed in the country. Much of it is not very fertile. The orops this year look pretty well—very well in some places. Bat [ am told this is an unusually good year, and that one cannot form a correct idea of the pro- ductiveness of the country by taking this as a sample crop. The most pro- minent feature of the country is the stone fences, which seem in many instances to have-been built forino other reason than to get rid of the atones In the neighborhood of Cork and Limerick great adyances have been made in the use of farm imple- ments, Sometimes, however, farmers aro kept ‘from getting muchinery tears of violence from the laborers, The other day a farmer, whose hands had struck, went to Lim- erick and bought a mower to cut his grasd. Before he had got'out of town with th machine he saw some of his laborers nodding and whispering to each other, and was finally advised to not try any such wmeans of securing his h With the fear of boycotting before him, he concluded that it was best to compromise with his hunds on their own terms. This he did, taking the mower back to the shop. Tho op- position of workmen to labor-saving machinery is not new or peculiar to Ireland, The unusual thing about this and similar instances that are oc: curring here is that the farmers yield with so little hesitation to the ‘‘sug- gestions” of the laborers. One of the reasoas for the present troubles is the adherence of the farmers here to old methods of farming and their slowness to introduce improved agricultural implements. There is a complaint that they cannot compete with the United States in some of the products that they formerly supplied the Kng- lish with. AMERICAN PRODUCTS THE CHEAPEST. Grain and provisions from the States have brought down the prices here, and_the farmers are too much set in their old ways to introduce im- proved methods of husbandry or try to raise new kinds of crops. The same difticulty is found in England and Wales. An English landlord said to me not long ago: I don't see what we English farmers are to do. You have such a great, rich country over there, and transportation is so cheap, that you supply our market with grain, beef, cheese, wool and agricul- tural products at lower prices than we can possibly raise them for. You have taken away one resource atter another, until T really don’t see what there is left for us.” There are, I am told, English landlords now who would let their farms at nominal rents, so hard is it in the present condition of things for tenants to make enough to pa; even a moderate rent, Undoubtedly there are some products in regard to which they can never again hope to be able to compete with us. Some of their capital and labor must be used in other fields. And yet thereis no doubt that the general introduction of labor-saving machinery, with the energy that usually goes withit, would enable the farmers here to compete with us in many more ways than are open to them with their present methods and wachinery. In many parts of Ireland the land is excoedingly tertile and in most places is adapted to the uso of machinery, In Galway and some other parts of the w. south it is not suitable for tilla; ought to be used for pasture. This would mako the migration or emigra- tion of a good many of the peaplo or the introduction of manufactures necessary. Some of the land owners, by trying to turn their land into graz- ing instead of grain-producing farms, have excited the strongest kind of op: position, The emigration provision of the land act have met with strenu- ous opposition from these small farmers and their sympathisers, “It would be a great shame to turn these poor people out of their little homes, around which cluster every associa- tion that their hearts hold dear,” are the words of a clergyman whose life has been spent among the people, and who knows from long experience the ardor and tenderness of affection with which the Irish people cling to the persons and places that they have be- come familiar with, An Irish lawyer, who has traveled a great deal and “be- come acqnainted with the character- istics of many people say in reference to the provisions in the land act of 1870 for compensation for disturb ance: ‘“No amount of money could compensate an Trishman forgiving up the home in which his ancestors have lived for generations and to which he is bound by the tenderest and most sacred ties.” This lawyeris not a land leaguer, Tt is 1mpossible for us with our colder natures and lack of family tra- ditions and long associutions which places, and with our unsettled and migratory habits, to understand the tenacity with which these people cling to the old homes of their families. Usually the worse the home the greater the tenacity, And yet for not a few of them there is no future here. Perhaps enforced emigration would be a kindness in many cases. The wonderful decrease of the pop- ulation (from more than eight millious to five and & half millions in thirt; {u»n), notwithstanding the well- nown tendency of the race to increase shows that very many have gone to seck homes elsewhere. IRISH LOVE FOR AMERICA Many now talk of going to America, 1t is, however, generally the young and vigorous lahorers, the bone and | sinew of the country, best part of the least intelligent classes It seems far easier for them to migrate to Amerlca than anywhere else. They look upon us as their friends, and many have ' relatives in the states. - They show a good deal of knowledge of our afiairs, too. The interest of all classes in the recovery of President Garfield is remarkable. Wo et far'the Y | dung-pits, | moved with sympathy for us, and from the highest to the lowest express their gratification at his recovery. 1 am told that the same feeling prevails thronghout England and Scotland. The English and Scotch tourists say that nothing has ever so stirred the hearts of their people with sympathy for us as this crime against a man whom they have learned to regard as one of the greatest and best that our eountry has produced. The onlyfsen- timent of a different sort that T have heard expressed was that of an Amer- ican politician who thought it was a “sad 1[:...,( that any man should be shot down in the prime of his life,” but they believed that ‘‘Arthur would make a better president than Gar- tield,” Tt is needless to say that the speaker is a foster.child of the spoils systom and feeds at the public trough by reason of that system. To return to the subject of emigration, there is a disposition among some farmers of the better sort to go to the states and buy land for the sake of their children, There are, however, no oconsiderable number of these compared with the large number who violently oppose emigration in any form Thrilling stories of hardships en- dured and indignities - suffered by women who have gone are: told and the loneliness of thesick and old in families from which the young and strong have gone to the states is held up to deter the more cuergetic and ad- venturous who are inclined to seek their fortunes in the Groat West. Not only do the people talk against it in private; the newspapers have alinost without exception, had leading edi- torials against it within the last week. One or two have indeed gone so far as to say that they see no reason why there should be any objection to the government's paying the expenses of @ man or community of people who want to emigrate, but have not money to do so, if the people are left per- fectly free in their actions, There is a fear that in somo cases landlords, who want to get possession of their lands, will bring such pressure to bear on their tenants as will make emigration’ the only refuge from homelessness and starvation, THE PRIVATIONS OF THE PEOPLE. The poverty of many of the people in this part of the country is the im- portant element to be taken into ac- count in any eystem looking to thoir advancement, In a previous letter I described some of the houses that are found on the road from Macroon to Glenganriff. T have seen many simi- lar ones to-day. They are, of course, generally feund in the poorer parts of the country, though not by any means confined to out of-the-way places. The wretched condition of these cottages is, of course, attributed by many to_the poverty of their oceu- pants. Undoubtedly the people are n many instances very, very poor in- deed, with no prospects of ever being richer, While many of them do not hope for the better things they almost all take great interest in having these old places, and are very tender and affectionate toward each other, and especially toward their families. Nor is there the sort of beastly ignorance and brutality that one would expect to find among the dwellers in such abodes, and their persons and clothes are often clean, while their houses can only be approached throughout the They usually have plenty of leisure to clear up their houses and yards and plant a few trees and flow- ers, and the expense would be noth- ing. A landlord told me it was the Coltic haracter that loved filth for its own ; that the priests, having more icate noses, required the people to keep their persons and clothes clean when they came to church or school, T am told that in some of the out-of- way places in the highlands of Scot- laud the Celtic population lives in a somewhat similar _style, On the other hand, there is no doubt that landlordisn has a goo¢ deal to do with the forlorn condition of a good wmany of the houses, WHY POVERTY IS FEIGNED. Some of the people who go dressed in rags and live in hovels have bank accounts, and some who claim tha, they areabsolutely unable to pay their rents find.when the hour of eviction comes that they have money by them to pay the rent and costs too, For many years in some parts of the country the landlords or agents have been in the habit of going about, and wherever they saw signs of prosperity, raising the rent. ‘A good horse, & decent suit of clothes, repairs to a cottage, any signs of new furniture or any evidence of prosperity on the part uf tho tenant, even the sight of a piece of bacon hanging in the kitchen, was sure.on some farms to cause the rent to be increased.” There were many instances, I am told, of this sort, and the people naturally put on the appearance of poverty-strickenness and allowed their houses to remain in neglect and filth to accumulate in order to keep the wolfish land- lords and agents from de vouring them, A doctor near Tralee was called to see a patient who had fever, He found some dif- ficulty in getting into the habitation by reason of the filth, Thero was a large pool of green water just in front of tho door, when ho asked, with some indignation, why the filth was not cleared away, He was answered: #Och, the landlord ud raise the rint in less than no time,” It has now become, it is said, a habit with the people to put on the appearance of noverty, and they often do it where nothing whatever is to be gained by it. Doubtless instances of the follow- ing sort could be matched in our own country. They do not seem to be un- frequent here, A beggar was told by a gentleman the other day when ask- ed for “‘a saxpence” that he had no change less than a sovereign. *‘Faith an I ean change it for ye,” was the reply Railroad conductors tell me it isa very common thing for women to geton traius without tickets, plead | that they have no money, and fiually, when there isno help for t, produce the necessary sum from fairly-filled purses. I saw two cases of the kind the other day. A third woman, it is | said, hid herself under a seat in the same car and escaped detection, D. B. Kixa. Joseph Durrinburger.

Vanderbilt York Th | What is claimed to be the largest pavement stone ever quarried in the ‘ul(wl States, is now resting upon blocks in front of the main entrance of William H. Vanderbilt's new house on Fifth avenue, between Fifty-first and Fifty-second streets. One of the firm of H. & A. 8. Dickinson, of West Fourteenth street, who have the con- tract for the stonc-work, reiterated the atatement that the block was the largest ever quarried. It was, he said, twenty-five foet two inches long, fifteen feet wide, and eight inches thick, and weighed romething over 44,000 pounds, The stone was taken from the quarry of a Mr. Hickok, at Barryville, Sullivan county, N. Y. The block from which it was taken was perfectly level, about ninety feet long and nineteen foet in width. From this surface the block was cut out, and then raised by wedges. In this instanco tho seam was 8o open that the stone was raised without difti- culty, and what was unusually gratify- ing to the contractors was the perfectly clean and level bed below, which required comparatively litto dressing. The block contd have been made thir co foet in length, but the great it would have made its transpor- tation very risky. As it was, a great deal of difficulty was met in bringing it to this city. It was first rolled down a hill a distance of half a mile to the river bank, and then placed edgewise in a canal boat especially ar- ranged to recoive it The canal-hoat brought it to the toot of West Thir- teenth street, in this city, whon itwas taken out by one of Delamater's float- ing derricks and placed upon the deck of the derrick. From Thirteenth street the derrick was towed to the foot of West Fifty-first stroet, whero the stone was lifted out and placed upon two trucks built for the occasion, and capable of carrying thirty-five or forty tons. Bix teams of horses hauled it to its present resting place* The risk of handling such a block of stone is very great, as a sudden jar or fall would be apt to break it. It was esti- mated that it would cost from 85,000 to $6,000 to duplicate it. Tt will be laid directly in tront of the Fifth ave- nue entrance to the building, over- lapping it a Yow inches on either side. The contract for the stone-work called for such a pavement at tho main en- trance, if such a one could be procur- ed, and Mr. Dickinson said they wero particularly fortunate in finding one at Mr, Hickok’s quarry. Aside from thts monster stone, the others that have already been placed in position aro of no ordinary size. Nincteen blocks, including the one already described, serve to make up the entire front on Fifth avenue, be- tween Fifty-first and Fifty-second streets, The others average from twelve to thirteen feet in length and and fifteen feet in width. These large pavements are all laid upon three parallel walls of solid rock, which is something of an innovation in its way. It has usually been the custom to rest them upon beds of sand, but itis trequently the case that sand falls away and the stone falls with it, or, failing to do so, is very apt to break The present methed was expected to do away with any possibility of breaking Mr. Dickinson said that other large stones had been placed in sition in the work of construction. ‘or instance, the step from the side- walk at the entrance on Fifth avenue, was one of the largest of its kind It was a fine blue stone, twenty-four feet two inches in lengh, three and a half feet wide. and thirteen inches deep. Tt will take the men from two to three weeks to dress the large stone, but it is expected that all the work in this direction will be com- pleted during the present month. That Great Refrigerator Enterprise st. Louls Republican, Aug. 0. It has been known for some time throughout the various railroad cir- cles and to many of our citizens that the management of the Gould system ot railroads had decided upon organ- izing a company for the purpose of handling and transporting perishablo goods of every description, bricf, this has been done, and the company starts their cars running this day, and we shall endeavor in our short space to give a description of the method of duing the business: The company is a regularly charter- ed institution, owned by the railroads interested and in many respects may be called a great benetactor. ““What is worth doing is worth doing well,” and “‘willful waste makes woful want.” These adages can be aptly applied to the transportation of perishable goods, such as dressed meats, butter, egys, cheese, beer, poultry, game, fruits and vegetables. There are to-day thous ands of merchants within a day’s ride of St. Louis who have never been able to develop the particulur trade in which they are engaged for the want of facilities to their goods in proper shape to warket, A visit heretofore to any of our de- pots would show hundreds of tubs of butter and boxes of cheese and eggs standing on the hot platform, the butter rununing out onto the floor, the cheese boxes all swelled up and the eggs stinking, This wilful waste has gone on for years and years, and there 18 no way of stopping it. The same with vegetables and fruits; they either had to go by costly express, i which case the charyes were enormous, (but not too high, considering the costly nature of the service, yet high enough almost to make the shipment of such goods prohibitory), or to be shipped in box- cars with consequent loss. Again, if vegetables and fruits can be carried from Florida, Charleaton and Bavannah to New York by steaer, and vegetables from Ber- muds and the West Tudies, all taking two weeks to get to market, why can- not the south, such as Texas, supply this market? One great and tremendous interest not yet spoken of is the transporta. ton of dressed meats between Texas and the north and St. Louis and the east, An immense array ot facts and figures tends to show the feasibility and necessity of this great busines the carriage of dressed beef in refrig. erator cars.

Many readers would be astonished to know that the value of the butter product of this country for the t year is greater than that of the wheat crop.
