The Duke :uid Duchess have undouhtudly heL'n a success, both social and political, in the sister isle. The Duke ha.s done much butter th.ui might have been expected frum one who was it little time ago amongst the least popular of English landlords. He is sa.id, Iiowevui', to he tired of the Lord Lieutenancy, and it is thought that, even if the Conservatives continue in powe)', he will not lung ruma-in at Dublin CastL'.

A CIRCULAR LETTER, of which the following ia a copy, has been addressed to each colliery owner in the West Lancashire and North Wales Inspection district, by Mr Henry Hull, H.M Inspector of Mines of the district :— SIR,—The attention of Mr Cross, Her M jesty's Secretary of mate, having been again drawn to the occurrence of Accidents by overwinding and the breakage of shaft ropes and couplings whilst rising and lowering persons at Mines, I am directed to request your attention to the invention:) for disconnecting in case of overwinding, such as are now in successful use at many Collieries. Although the deaths from such accidents form only a small proportion of the who!e number which occur in and about Mines, and occur only once in many millions of wind- ings, yet they form a perceptible item which may be less- ened and I am to express the hope that, if such appliance!) are not already attached where they are applicable at your Mikes, you will kindly give the subject your earnest con- sideration with the view of having them applied. f.S.—Kind!y state whether any detaching hooks are in use at your mine. —————— ?.—————

THE CLOSE OF THE OLD YEAR brought relief to many an anxious mind with regard to the Cabul force. Once more our little army is set free from imminent peril, and once more Cabul is in our hands. General H cherts is to be con- gratulated, and so are the two Generals Gongh, worthy inheritors of a great name, with General Bright, upon the doings of their Christmas week. But we are once more face to face with the problem, which seems insoluble the future government of Afghanistan. It seems as though nothing but the permanent occupation of the country with a large British force would maintain so much as a show of order in the country. And such a force would be constantly exposed to the most blood-thirsty treachery and the vilest deceit. At each step forward in the history of events fresh discoveries are being made of past duplicity. Our soldiers are being paid in Russian gold pieces, which were destined to support the late Ameer against the British. Conclusive proofs are said to have been dis- covered of Yakoob Khan's direct complicity in the murder of Cavagnari and his companions, whilst at the present moment it is certain that Afghan priests are engaged in exciting sedition amongst the Mohammedan populations of India. Afghanistan ha3 already coat the country unnecessary millions, and it is only too likely to cost yet many millions more. -———*————-

A?f IRISH GENTLEMAN who has been visiting Guernsey has publicly compared the condition of that island and his own country, very much to the advantage of the former. If Ireland supported the same population in proportion to its size, it would have 45 millions of prosperous inhabitants, instead of five millions most of whom are anything but prosperous. The beati- fic condition of Guernsey is due, in hi-; "i'iinn, to the existence of peasant proprietur"l: No doubt there is much truth in this but it is not the whole truth. He is wrong in supposing that there is little difference between the soil and the climate of the big island and the little one, as a very little experience of either would show him. The Channel Islands enjoy twice much sunshine in the year as any pare of Eng- land or Ireland. And he leaves altogether out of account the dinerehce i. character between the dull, thrifty, plodding, Puritan, Con- servative Guernsians and the reckless, excit- able, Hibernian. Put Guerrmcymen in Ireland, and it would soon be well cultivated, in spite of -'landlordism"; put Iri-hmcn in Guernsey, and it would soon be a in spite of peasant proprietorship. The Chaulld Islanders owe much of their prosperity b< the part which the women take in the less laborious of agricultural operations. The growing dn- ncieucy of their EnglisL sisters iu t!iM respect has been the subject of much public comment of late years. And a body of intluentia.1 ladies have so far taice'' the matter to heart as to pro- ject the formation of an English Female College of Agriculture. The experiment is actually about to be tried of educating the daughters uf farmers in practical horticulture, the manage- ment of the poultry-yard, the orchard, and th- dairy.

THE AWFUL RAILWAY (ATASTHOPH:: '.U rhf Tay Bridge will point the moral of many I'.i sands of tScotch sermons on the desc;crati'lll "f the Sawba.th." There is another lesso') which may with much less controversy be derivetl from the incident, and that is, the danger of modern acrobatic'' engineering. The T:i.y Bridge was a miracle of scientific skill, but hurricane caunot be gauged and uieasured. <Dur engineers are grappling with unknown quantities in their war against the elements, and the temper of the weapon with which they employ in the contest is almost equally uncertain. The effect of louged straining upon iron cannot be exactly nor certainly calculated. The Tay Bridge had weathered severer storms than that of Sunday evening, and there was no apparent degenera- tion of the structure. The bridge had nut been open for a couple of years, and as the w"rk only occupied in all a period of seven years, no part of it could be ten years old, so that the de- terioration in the structure due to mere ordinary wear and tear could not have been con- siderable. The gale was undoubtedly a severe one, but by no means so severe as to atno'uit to a phenomenon against which ordinary foresight could not be expected to provide as has )et'n said, the bridge has st<-od severer tents wiUi 't visible inj ury. The inference is that ""t engineering science has not yet arrived :t sumcient perfection to enable us t" span an estuary of two miles in width We have been too presumptuous, experience has caught us a terrible Icsscu The proportions of the disftSter are trelucud'n' Of all the frightful catastrophes Wtth which r:n! way h-athc hM mallû 11,4 <uuiliar this lias no pc' ¡. 1 I 1 "'111"L in extent and complete.iess.
