EHrr ^ ' ^ td' ^^ r ^^ s : t ^^ "r » rf ^&| i £ dressed were literally boys out of the street Bothow was it they came to hear him ? He had invited them in Jo share a few hours with their former companions before their emigrating to Canada . Mr . Driver tells the Soya that the ? must not even look for ^ ppme ^ - " Never mind happiness ; do your duty . " "No man ever JoLd happiness by looking for it . " " Thowjnd j are happy ; and there is on the whole a great deal of happiness in the world . It does strike me that the boys in this house are often very happy ; but , if you ever noticed it , you will find that happiness came to you when you were not thinking about it . " " For my own part , I have never tried to make you happy . I don't pretend * „ . „!„ , o ™ Tw « - hannv . It is no part of my business to
„ do so 7 io one will for a moment complain that thfe language is really harsh , though it is blunt and direct . Mr Driver reminded some of the boys that he had stricken them when they required correction . It is probable that those very boys are amongst the most faithful . Some stood round him who had tried the Reformatory , and had left it . They were not strong enough iortne work—that of overcoming difficulties . But even they must have thoroughly , known the kindness of the man . " What more need I * say ? " he exclaimed , towards the close of his address . " One feels inclined to go on talking , very loth to say the last word . " All those who had persevered were volunteers—from first to last—volunteers in the labour of overcoming difficulties . ' ^ ven now , " he said to the emigrants , " at the last moment , it you in the least suspect that an honest life is too dimcult , and you would prefer the easy life of the streets , go . - ¦ Take the good clothes you have on—they are yours and go . I will open the door , and neither by word nor look will I hinder you . " That is the true command . Mr . Driver had acquired such influence over the boys + ! ,,. «• !•« mnrlo auxiliaries out of the free will of the lads .
Now , no man can obtain this kind of influence by deputy . —Globe . Loud Palmees-tcw * and hisColleaguks . —Wo understand that Lord Palmerston has issued a circular to the Parliamentary heads of each department , requesting them to supply him in the month of November with tho particulars of all legislative measures which they are desirous of being introduced into Parliament . Tho object of tho Premier in making this prudent request is , that tho Cabinet may , in the first instance , have a full and narlv oT > Dortunitv of being acquainted with , and of
deciding upon , the departmental bills to bo introduced into Parliament , of determining in which house of Parliament the measure ehall be introduced , and of avoiding the confusion which invariably arises from tho introduction of a large number of Government bills at tho end of the seunion , when there is no longer sufficient time for their full and ample consideration . —Manchester Gttfii \ iian . .

Improvement Society held their annual cattle show at Athlone on Wednesday . The Lord Lieutenant was ¦ present , and , at a banquet in tho evening , delivered an eloquent ppeeeh on tho rising proapority of Ireland , her peaceful condition , compared with tho disordered state of tho country in former times , and tho rapid reclamation of her waste lands . On this latter point , ho said : — " Within tho last twonty years , moro than u million of Irish acres have been reclaimed from tho wosto . In 18 dl , to eight millions of people thoro wore 18 , 000 , 000 of cultivated ucres in Ireland .

Leader Office , Saturday , August 16 . THE ISLAND OF SERPENTS . The Deutschland of Vienna of the 10 thsays : — "As soon as the Cabinet of Vienna was informed of the grave conflict which was about to break out by the re ? u £ l of Russia to restore Kars , and by its occupation of the Isle of Serpents , it addressed an energetic . note to the Cabinet of St . Petersburg , demanding that those islands should be given up to the Porte without condition . The Russian Charge d'Affaires , M . Balabine , was able to convince himself , from several conversations . with Count Buol , that the protest of tho Cabinet of Vienna was very serious . The reply of the Cabinet of St . Perersbur ^ arrived here a few days ago . It has produced a very good impression , Russia not only promising to re-Itore Kars , but recognizing the right of the Porte to the Isle of Serpents .

Illustrations of two kinds may be cited in * f ^™^ x ™* l sures which were adopted during the part session , and measures which were not adopted . In the case of measures adop ted—the County Police Bill and Bishops' Retirement Ball , which undoubtedly arm the Minister with a new and strange prerogative , why was the opposition unsuccessful ? Because , in the case of the Police Bill , the nation did not want self-government , so much as no government . The local bodies petitioned against a bill tor the protection of life and property in counties ; but why had theynot app hed for en eswtuupu
