SATURDAY, JULY 11, 1840. VOLUME I. - - -[Illustration: ENTRANCE TO THE GREAT CAVE OF KISH-CORRAN, AS SEEN FROM -THE INTERIOR.] - - - - -THE CAVES OF KISH-CORRAN. - - -Among the many wonders of Ireland, as yet undescribed and little known, -even to Irishmen, beyond their immediate localities, the subject of our -prefixed illustration has every claim to find a place, and to attract our -attention as a subject equally interesting to the geologist, artist, and -historian. That it should have hitherto remained unnoticed, as we think -it has, while objects of the same description in other localities less -remarkable and interesting have been repeatedly described, may be -attributed chiefly to the circumstance of its situation being remote from -any leading road, and in a wild and rarely visited district of country, -namely, the barony of Corran, in the county of Sligo. Of this barony, the -mountain called Ceis or Kish-Corran, is the most striking geographical -feature. It is composed of tabular limestone; has a flat outline at top, -but is precipitous on its sides, and rises to an altitude of upwards of a -thousand feet. To the traveller journeying from Boyle to Sligo it must be -a familiar and pleasing object, as, after passing the little town of -Ballinafad, it offers, for some miles of the road towards the west and -south-west, the charms of a mountain boundary in contrast to the rich -woods of Hollybrook, and the delightful vistas of the water of Lough -Arrow, or Arva, which skirt the road along the east. But the most -precipitous and noble point of Kish-Corran is presented to the west, and -is not seen by the traveller on this road, which must for a time be -abandoned to enable him to see it, as well as the wonderful caves which -open on its face, and to which we have now to call the attention of our -readers. On this western side, the mountain, to within a hundred feet or -two of its summit, presents a green but boldly sloping grassy face, -formed of the debris of the rocks above, which rise perpendicularly, and -look more like a wall--lichen-stained and ivy-decked--formed by the -Cyclops or giants of old, than creations of nature's hand. And such -impression is increased in no small degree by the lofty and magnificent -caves, which present themselves like doorways, and lead into the inmost -recesses of the mountain. It is of one of these entrances, and the most -remarkable for grandeur, that our illustration attempts to give an idea. -Its height is no less than twenty feet. How far the caves extend, we are -unable to speak with certainty; they are undoubtedly of great extent, -and, if the local accounts are to be trusted, reach even to the opposite -or eastern side of the mountain, and contain lakes of unfathomable depth, -and spars of unimaginable beauty. - -A spot so striking to the imagination could not be, in Ireland, without -its legends of a romantic and singular character; and some of these are -of a most remote antiquity, and connected with the earliest legendary -history of our country. In the ancient topographical tract called the -Dinnseanchus, which gives the origin, according to the poets, of the -names of the most remarkable mountains, lakes, rivers, caves, forts, &c. -in Ireland, we are told that Corran received its name from the harper of -Diancecht, to whom that magical race, called the Tuátha de Danann, gave -the territory as a reward for his musical skill; and popular tradition -still points to the cave of Kish-Corran as his residence, according to -the ancient form quoted in the Dinnseanchus:-- - -"Here used to dwell the gentle Corann, whose hand was skilled in playing -on the harp; Corann was the only ollave of Drancich (with whom he -lived), in free and peaceable security. - -To Corann of the soft music, the Tuátha De gave with great honour a free -territory for his skilful playing, his knowledge, and his astrology. Here -was he, this generous man, not without literature or in a churlish -fortress, but in a place where the stranger was at liberty to a free -sojournment with him, this liberal prosperous man." - -The same authority accounts for the prefix _Ceis_, or, as it is -pronounced, _Kish_, which is applied to the mountain by a very singular -legend, according to which it would appear that it was originally the -name of a lady, who with five others were, by a charm compounded with the -nut-fruit, metamorphosed into pigs, the unhappy Ceis herself being here -subsequently slain. However this may be, there is nothing improbable in -the supposition that the caves of Kish-Corran were in former times the -favourite dens of the wild boar, the wolf, and many other animals now -extinct; they furnish a secure retreat to the fox and many other wild -animals at the present day. - - P. - - - - -ON BENEVOLENCE OF CHARACTER. - -BY MARTIN DOYLE. - - -If it be afflictive, on one side, to reflect upon the deeds of cruelty -and oppression which prevail upon earth, through the instrumentality of -man, it is delightful, on the other, to perceive that human reason, -instead of being abused and perverted into a source of tyrannical -oppression, is occasionally exercised, as it ought to be, in promoting -happiness and social harmony, even among brutes; in producing that degree -of peaceful concord, which it has been proved may exist among animals -whose natural antipathies are the most violent imaginable--that feeling -which disarms the strong among them of all desire to tyrannise over and -destroy the weak, and is brought into exercise by a steady and -persevering _system_ of early training (and consequent acquirement of -abiding habits), directly opposed to _that_ which prompts us to place a -whip in the hand of a child. - -I have been led into this train of contemplation, from having recently -witnessed a practical illustration of the wonderful effects producible by -what may fairly be termed a benevolent system, for there is no degree -whatever of harsh discipline connected with it--no starvation, no blows, -nothing of that "reign of terror," under the influence of which Van -Amburgh has doubtless effected his dominion over the most ferocious of -beasts; the exhibition of which power, while it surprises, does not -please us; for, though, by an effort of the imagination, the mind may be -led for a moment to the anticipation of the scene in which "the wolf -shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid," -it quickly considers this surprising display of human power with painful -sensations, from the conviction that extreme severity of discipline alone -has enabled man in this instance to attain his despotic sovereignty, and -that the unnatural results which he beholds are an evidence that the -legitimate dominion granted to man "over every thing that moveth upon the -earth," has in this case, as in ten thousand others, been overstrained -and abused. - -While animals of prey are in a state of nature, they either avoid each -other, or meet in deadly contest, according to the degree of their -antipathies; and until He who has impressed their dispositions upon them -shall bid them lie down together in peace, no efforts of puny man can -avail in changing their habits, except under such rare circumstances as -confirm the general law of instinct which leads them to destroy each -other. But the dislike which many of the domesticated animals entertain -for each other, is greatly increased by the encouragement which they -receive from man. The dog, which under other treatment would be familiar -with the cat or the hog, is taught from his _puppyhood_ to pursue and -worry each of them; the cat instinctively defends herself with those -claws which are her natural weapons, and she scratches her opponent's -face, and through their after life they are never thoroughly reconciled -to each other, but live proverbially as "cat and dog." The hog cannot -defend himself from the teeth of the dog; his ears are torn by them; he -cannot retaliate, but he lives ever afterwards in dread of the whole -canine race. Dogs, which otherwise would live in harmony together, are -taught to fight; their natural jealousy is encouraged, and they are -rendered bullies by profession. - -That the dread of man is in a certain degree naturally upon every beast -of the field and bird of the air, cannot be disputed; but this feeling is -increased considerably by the _experience_ which many brutes have of -man's caprice or tyranny, and this dread is transmissible (as may be -justly inferred from cases which are perfectly analogous, such as the -acquired habit of pointing at game) to their posterity. - -A benevolent man, living, as we read of Robinson Crusoe, among his goats, -ceases to be an object of apprehension to the animals around him; even -birds, habituated to his kindness and protection, would become divested -of the dread of man; and each successive generation of those familiarized -birds would probably become more and more disposed to associate with him, -if he were systematically kind and encouraging in his manner. Such -experiments with the brute kind, it is true, can be but extremely -partial, and are unattended with any very practically useful results in -_themselves_; but, as respects _the education of children_, they are of -extreme utility in exciting tender and benevolent feelings, and awakening -the intellectual faculties from subjects merely sensual or idly amusing; -they teach us "to look from Nature up to Nature's God." - -There never was a better founded observation than that of the late Mr -Cobbett, that no one should be entrusted with the care of the nobler -animals who had not been habituated to treat the lesser ones with -kindness. - -I love to see a child feeding his rabbits or pigeons, and familiarly -playing with them, consulting their tastes, and contributing to their -comforts by every means within his power. Surely such a pursuit should -not be rudely discouraged; how much more humanizing than the desire to -possess "whips for a penny," to which I have recently adverted! It tends -to render a child compassionate in his disposition to all God's -creatures, and unwilling to hurt, for the sake of inflicting pain, or -from thoughtless mischief. - -And I am just enough of phrenologist to be of opinion that, if there be -any remarkable developement of the organ of destructiveness, this may be -sufficiently counteracted by the exercise of feelings which have -connection with the faculty of benevolence, and so modified, by avoiding -all pursuits of a cruel nature, as to constitute, with God's blessing, a -benevolent character, which, by the indulgence of the inherent -inclination to cruel sports, would become of the opposite nature; for -there is unquestionably an adaptation of the mind, as well as the body, -to the circumstances under which individuals are placed. It is with the -faculties of the human mind as with the habits of brutes; when exercised, -they acquire strength, and gradually become more developed and confirmed; -ay, and become hereditary too in proportion to their original or -gradually progressing degree of developement. How important, then, that -the higher faculties, on which depends the elevation of the moral -character, should be strengthened by use and exercise! But I have -digressed far from the illustration which I was about to give at the -beginning, of a practically benevolent system of brute education. - -There stands on every fine day, near one of the great London bridges, a -mild, cheerful looking man, who exhibits to the passers by an assemblage -of animals of the most decided antipathies by nature, who live together -in the same large cage in perfect harmony. The notion of collecting into -one family such apparently discordant members, originated, I believe, -with a gentleman who has long made the brute animal economy the subject -of his investigations, and who suggested to John Austin the harmlessness, -at least, of earning the means of his support by the novel and -interesting exhibition of a cat, rats, mice, Guinea pigs, hawks, pigeons, -owls, and starlings, and, I believe, another bird, under the same limited -roof, and with perfect freedom of access from one to another. One of the -pigeons is now hatching, without any cause of alarm from the hawk for the -safety of her anticipated offspring; for that bird is so far from being -of a destructive temper, that he frequently feeds a young starling with -meat from his own bill, and apparently of his own impulse; nor do any of -the birds manifest apprehension from the cat, which has been almost born -in their company, and although frequently permitted to go outside the -cage and take the air without restraint, returns soon again, without -having had her disposition corrupted by intercourse with bad company, -takes up her favourite position in a corner, where the rats most -affectionately run up to her for warmth and concealment from the public -gaze, behind her furry and comfortable back. The pigeons are also allowed -their liberty occasionally, but they soon return to their quarters, which -habit has rendered pleasant to them. - -Now, I by no means recommend to parents, for their children, the -establishment of a _domestic menagerie_, for the care of this would be -extremely troublesome, and occupy time which should be spent to far -better purpose; nor do I recommend the keeping of useless pets of any -kind, my object being merely to point out, by actual exemplification, -what the benevolent _principle_, systematically exercised, _can_ produce -even under the most adverse circumstances. On what are called pets, such -as lapdogs and parrots, much warm, kind feeling is often unprofitably -bestowed. When PONTO dies of plethora, or POLL from cold or infirmity, -sensibilities are sometimes called forth, which would not flow from the -contemplation of human sufferings. The servant who is daily employed to -wash and comb the dog, is perhaps never sent upon an errand of mercy to -any of the distressed families around the mistress, and a wayworn group -of children may unavailingly solicit the luxurious food which is placed -before the pampered _pet_, without shame or scruple. - -I do not intend to maintain the pet _system_ in general; it is the -principle of humanity which I seek, not that mawkish sensibility which -causes so many to weep at the dramatic exhibition of fictitious woe, who -would not drop one tear of sympathy for real misery, divested, as in the -scenes of every-day life, of the embellishments and romantic adjuncts -which false sentiment delights in. We all, it is true, require some -especial objects of endearment, something on which the feelings of the -heart may find expansion, else we become cold, selfish, and very -disagreeable to every one. In childhood, therefore, the disposition to -love even the domestic animals born for our use, should be sedulously -fostered, but not to such excess as to weaken the affection for parents, -brothers, sisters, or friends. The principle should only be checked, -however, in its exuberance, never crushed. In mature years the affections -should have the highest objects, and in those instances in which the -Creator has denied the gift of offspring to us, I would respectfully -suggest to those who desire pets, the adoption of an orphan or two, whom -they may train both for earth and heaven, in preference to any other -perishable idols. - - - - -LAGHT-E-OURIA. - -"The longest way round is often the shortest way home."--_Old Proverb._ - - -I was not more than eight or nine years old when the following anecdote -was related to me by the actor or sufferer, whichever he might be called, -himself. He was a fine stately old gentleman. His family had once been -powerful; but in the troubles with which the page of Ireland's history is -filled and darkened, they had been reduced, and he, fleeced by a -treacherous guardian of the last remnant of the property, had been -compelled to accept the influence of friends in procuring him a -commission in the civil service (for in war he would not serve them) of a -government which he loathed. - -He was of a stern and rather gloomy disposition, and rarely condescended -to social or pleasant conversation, much less to notice children; but -sometimes the genial fire within would thaw the icy surface, and diffuse -life and light around. The bow could not be kept ever bent: the garrison -was too feeble to keep constant watch and ward, and a view would be -sometimes gained, through an open door, of a heart fitted by nature to -give and receive all sublunary happiness. I heard his history long after -his career had closed. But it has nothing to do with the present -story--another time for it. - -I had been playing marbles with my cousin and playfellows; we quarrelled, -and were proceeding to blows, when Mr M----, who was sitting, unobserved -by us, on a stone bench, and had witnessed our dispute, called to us both -to approach him. He took one on each knee, and looking alternately at us, -said, in a tone so mild and different from his usual harsh commanding -voice, that we could scarcely think it was the same man who spoke, "Boys, -beware of sudden ungovernable passion; under its influence you might -commit, in one moment, an act which would embitter, with remorse and vain -regret, all your subsequent life. - -"When a young man, I once suffered so keenly the consequence of my -ungovernable temper, that were I to live a thousand years, I could not -forget it. I see that your curiosity is excited, and you would like to -hear the circumstance; but it is connected with a ghost story, and I must -tell you all." "Oh! do, Mr M----," said I, "for papa says there are no -such things as ghosts or fairies, and nurse says there are; and nurse -never tells lies, and certainly papa would not, and I do not know what -to think between them." "Well," said he, "I shall tell you the story, and -it will help you to form your judgment. - -From the high road between Cork and Cloyne, and about three miles from -the latter, a small by-road, or 'borheen,' branches off. It is of very -ancient date, belonging to times when men were guided by the position of -the sun during the day, and the stars at night, and when, consequently, -their track lay over mountain and hollow, through wood and bog, as the -avoidance of impediments (except to a very short distance) would have -thrown them quite out of their reckoning, and toil was much less regarded -then than in these degenerate days. The road by Laght-e-Ouria is -decidedly a shorter way to Cloyne than the high road from which it -diverges; but a saying has arisen since it was made, 'the longest way -round is the shortest way home,' that has been so often used as a -conclusion to a debate upon 'which of the roads should be taken,' that -the wisdom of our ancestors is voted folly, and their ways are no longer -trodden. - -Other reasons than the unevenness of its surface are however not wanting, -and many a headstrong drunken farmer, upon whom all other argument had -been tried in vain, has been induced to turn his horse's head to the new -road, by the soft voice of the 'Vanitha' whispering in his ear that 'it -would be midnight ere they passed Laght-e-Ouria.' - -Laght, in Irish, signifies a heap of stones, and it is customary in -Ireland, wherever a murder has been committed, for every passer-by to -throw a stone upon the spot. A heap, or 'laght,' is thus soon formed, and -it receives the cognomen of the unfortunate individual whose untimely end -it commemorates. - -In the beginning of the month of October 1775, when residing in Cork, I -received a note from the Earl of Inchiquin, desiring me to meet him at -Cloyne between five and six o'clock on the following morning, on most -pressing and important business. I immediately ordered my horse, -determining to dine with a particular friend who resided about half way, -to jog quietly on in the evening, and have, what I always relished, a -night's repose on the spot where my morning's business awaited me. - -Mr Ahern was one of a class well known in the south as 'gentlemen -farmers,' being mostly reduced gentlemen who farmed a portion of the -grounds that once belonged to their ancestors, in many instances to -themselves. - -Hospitality, the virtue they most prided themselves upon, they carried to -a fault; and my friend Ahern, in common with the rest, made it a rule, -without an exception, that a bottle either of wine or whisky once opened, -should be finished on the spot. Upon this occasion, however, I felt it -necessary to demur. The last bottle of whisky having been opened without -my consent, and feeling that, although I was still capable of proceeding -on my journey, the half of what remained would put it completely out of -the question, I positively refused to take another drop except the -'Dhuch-an-dhurrish,' or parting glass, and resisting all his -importunities to stay the night, not relishing a ride of a dark morning, -I took my departure about an hour before midnight. - -I never was a believer in ghosts or fairies, or any class of idle, -mischievous, disembodied creatures; but upon this occasion, whether from -melancholy or loneliness, or the darkness, which was so intense as to -force me to proceed very slowly, or from my friend's stirrup-cup having -slightly obnubilated my reasoning faculties without producing the usual -valour, I know not. Certain it is, I did not feel comfortable, and wished -most fervently for just as much light as would enable me to urge my horse -forward at a quicker pace, but the more I wished for light the darker it -became, until my eyes ached in endeavouring to penetrate the gloom. - -A row of tall trees ran along at each side of the road, and nearly met at -top, and the fitful breeze just agitating the leaves, or occasionally -moving the branches so as to cause a low, moaning, creaking noise, jarred -my nerves, and made me feel still more and more unpleasant. At length, -when I had arrived at an intolerable pitch of nervous excitement, the -darkness became less intense, and I could just distinguish a breach in -the row of trees upon the right, which marked the locality of the -'laght.' Taking advantage of the opportunity, I pressed my horse. He -seemed to have become as nervous as myself, for he answered to the slight -touch of the spur with a loud snort and a violent spring, which I -considered so totally uncalled for, as to give me a very fair excuse for -being in a passion, and venting my irritability, which I proceeded to do -with my whip, as giving my muscles more action than the spur; but -instead of plunging along at a mad gallop, as I expected, my horse -reared, and turning sharply round, attempted a flight back. Again and -again I turned his head to the road, but onward he would not go; this was -very strange, for he never shied or started. At length I tried the -soothing system; for I must confess that the general belief that horses -see what is hidden from the eyes of man, occurred to me, and I coaxed and -patted him, and spoke gently and encouragingly to him, but he kept -sidling, and tramping, attempting to turn, and answering every word or -pat with a long snore, whilst I could perceive by his forward pricked -ears and the direction of his head, that his eyes were rivetted upon the -heap of stones. Whilst thus engaged, and having somewhat quieted his -terror, I heard a sound like the rattling of chains. Round and away with -Rainbow. I brought him up again nearer than before. Again the chains -clanked, and I could distinctly hear that they were chains, ere my horse -bolted and ran again. 'The third time,' said I, 'contains a charm, they -say; and, man or devil, ghost or fairy, I'll overhaul you. Who's there?' -No answer. 'Who's there?' Clank, clank, went the chains. I could see -nothing. The perspiration was running down my face, but I was furious. -'By the hand of my grandfather, if you do not answer me, I'll go to you, -and whilst sinew and whalebone last, you shall feel the butt of a loaded -whip. Who are you?' Again the chains clanked, and my horse would not -consent to keep such company any longer. I dismounted, and, taking him a -few paces back, tied him to a tree, and returned on foot to the spot. - -Behind the trees was a deep trench partly filled with water; a hawthorn -hedge grew at the farther side, and threw its branches nearly across. As -I approached the 'laght,' the rattling of the chains again rose, -accompanied by a plashing, scrambling noise, as of something breaking -through the hedge and trench. I sprang forward, striking with the heavy -handle of my whip, having twisted the thong firmly round my hand and -wrist, I had only beaten air, but the violence of the blow and weight of -the whip carried me forward; and, missing my footing in the darkness, I -fell against, or rather upon, the monster of the chains; and having made -a furious grasp to save myself, judge what was my horror at catching a -handful of hair, such as might be expected to be felt upon an arctic -bear! The creature slipped from me, and with a tremendous plunge and -frightful rattling of its chains, gained the road, overwhelming me -completely in the muddy ditch. - -Just at that instant the whole truth flashed across my mind; and with a -vengeful rage that I am ashamed to confess, I sprang up, and pursuing my -unfortunate victim, a jackass, who could make but little exertion to -escape, being spancelled with a piece of an iron chain, I kept my oath, -by belabouring poor Neddy until I could strike no more from exhaustion. I -then turned to remount my horse; but he was gone, having left the -principal portion of his bridle hanging on the bough for a keepsake. -Nothing saved Neddy from a second edition, with considerable additions, -but the recollection of the hour, the necessity of catching my horse, and -the confounded distance I should have to travel afterwards, for he was, -of course, gone the wrong way. - -I ran as fast as I could, but was soon obliged to pull up. I found that I -was carrying weight, and no light weight, for my clothes were saturated -with water, and covered thickly with mud. Having scraped off as much as I -could of the latter, I got along, and about two o'clock reached my -friend's house again, entertaining a faint hope that Rainbow had returned -to the last stall he had occupied; and so he had. - -Not finding the gate open, he had jumped the road fence, and was quietly -grazing with two or three other horses. There was now light enough to -distinguish objects at a hundred yards; and I could see his saddle, but -how to catch him was now the question, for he had at all times a -propensity to keep his liberty when he had got it; and to think of -catching him without help was idle. I approached the house, but just then -recollected that my friend had a couple of dangerous mastiff dogs, of -extraordinary size and ferocity; and as the entrance to the front of the -house lay through the farm-yard, in which they were kept, it would be as -much as my life was worth to approach it. My only chance was to get at -the rere; and having made the circuit of a few fields, I reached it, and, -selecting a window likely to belong to some sleeping apartment on the -ground floor, I tapped at it with the butt of my whip. Receiving no -answer, I repeated the knock, and placing my head close, heard a female -voice exclaim, 'Marcy save us, it's the boys;' and the speaker hurried -barefooted from the room. I knew that the only female inmate of the -house was the daughter of an old follower of the family, now called -'_the_ servant man;' for Pat or Paddy fulfilled the manifold duties of -butler, footman, gardener, and valet, besides taking a hand at every -thing about the farm in turn. - -Whilst considering whether or not I should knock again, I had the -satisfaction to see, by the still increasing light, that the shutter of -an upper window was cautiously opened; then the window was gently raised; -and I waited for the appearance of a head to announce myself, when a -bright flash issued forth, accompanied by a tremendous report. Away went -my hat; and at the same instant the dogs opened, not barking, but with -yells upon yells, as if Pandemonium was let loose. 'Ahern! Ahern!' I -roared out, 'what are you at? 'Tis I--don't you know me?--M---- My horse -has run away; he's in your field, and I want help to catch him.' I -bellowed this at the top of my voice, in the vain endeavour to drown the -'bow-wow-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo' of the dogs. The answer I received was, 'You to -(hiccup) blazes (hiccup); here's at you again, you villains.' I threw -myself down as my quondam kind host discharged a second blunderbuss at -me; but was instantly on my legs again, as the roaring of the dogs -announced their rapid approach. They had in some manner got out of the -yard. I glanced hurriedly round for some place of shelter. A large -arbutus tree was the nearest object, and into it I scrambled, just as the -dogs appeared in full career upon the field. - -They made repeated springs at me, for I was not above eight feet from the -ground, but I contrived, by well-aimed kicks in the jaws, to keep them at -bay for a while. I was thus pleasantly engaged for about five minutes, -when Ahern and four or five men made their appearance. He carried a -blunderbuss in his hand, another tucked under his arm, and a brace of -holster pistols stuck in his waistband. His old servant had the master's -fowling-piece, and the rest, who were farm servants, had pitchforks. - -As soon as I espied them, I roared out, 'Call off the dogs, I'm M----, -you stupid drunken rascal.' 'Ho! ho! he's--hic--up in the arbutus.' -'Blur-an-agers, tare-an-taffy, sir, you'll shoot the dogs!' said old -Paddy, knocking up the levelled blunderbuss. 'It's Mr M----; don't ye -know his voice? Down, Fin--down, Oscar--down with ye,' and with -persuasive words, and still more persuasive blows of the fowling-piece, -Pat drew off the dogs, and took them away. I came down in a state of -indescribable rage. Nothing vexes a man so much as the consciousness of -being an object of mirth or ridicule. - -Having paused awhile for words, I poured forth a torrent of abuse on -Ahern. He hiccupped once or twice, looked with the most stupid -astonishment at me, and, when I paused for breath, 'damned me but it -would have been due to me to be shot; firstly, for leaving a Christian -habitation at the dead hour of the night; secondly, for going at that -hour by a haunted road; and, thirdly, for attempting to get in at a back -window of his house, when I well knew that I had only to raise the latch, -and walk in at the front door.' - -'How the d---- could I get past your infernal dogs?' said I. - -'Good dogs always know friends from foes,' he replied; 'but--hic--it was -just one of your tricks--you wanted to frighten me, and--ha! ha! ha!--you -got frightened yourself, and the devil's cure to you!--hic.' I was -beginning again, when he stopped me by saying, 'that if I thought he had -taken any advantage of me, matters could be made even;' and he produced -the holster pistols, saying 'that they were both double loaded; he had -charged them himself, and I might have my choice.' In a minute the ground -was measured; the men were ordered not to interfere, but stand aside; and -Ahem himself asked me if I was ready, and immediately said 'fire!' - -Well might he say 'the pistols were double charged;' they were trebly -charged--loaded to the muzzles. In fact, it was safer to stand before -than behind them. I was stunned by the report, and remained standing, -until roused by one of the men asking me 'was I shot?' adding, that 'I -had killed the masther.' In an instant the whole impropriety of my -conduct flashed before me, and I ran to my poor unfortunate friend, who -lay motionless. I knelt down by his side, and never shall I forget the -piercing anguish that at that moment penetrated my soul. All his -virtues--his amiable qualities--his kind-heartedness--every good action -of his life with which I was acquainted, and they were numerous, appeared -in order before my mental vision; and then conscience, shaking the ægis, -on which appeared, not the Gorgon's, but my poor friend's blackened -countenance, before me, and asking, 'Why did you do this?' froze up my -faculties, and converted my outward seeming into stone; but within, there -was a foretaste of the eternal torments. - -Involuntarily I called upon his name; the sound of my own voice started -me, arousing me to a sense of keener anguish; and I was about to break -forth into some violent extravagance, when my unfortunate friend opened -his eyes, and, looking at me with kindness, said, 'M----, you did not do -it; my pistol burst and has hurt me--take me into the house--I'm sober -enough now.' - -Upon examination it was discovered that a piece of the pistol barrel had -hit him above the forehead, cutting a path through his scalp; one of his -fingers was broken, and his hand and arm were severely contused, but he -seemed to think nothing of it, but desired one of the men to go for old -Biddy Hoolaghan, a celebrated doctress, and the rest of them to catch -Rainbow. I refused to leave him in his then present condition, of which I -was the unlucky cause, but he would not hear of my stopping. 'No, no,' -said he, 'your business cannot be neglected; and as to fault, we may -divide the matter between us, and bear each his own share. If I did not -make the ridiculous rule, that a bottle of whisky once opened should be -finished at once, I would not have drunk after you left me, but have gone -to bed at once; in which case I'd have known your voice, and all would -have been right. And if you were not so lazy as to object to a morning -ride (which you must take after all), you'd have staid where you were, -and saved all the mischief. But, at all events, remember for the rest of -your days that 'the longest way round is often the shortest way home.' - -Rainbow was caught at length. Ahern lent me a bridle, and at four o'clock -I faced the road again, and arrived at Cloyne, without further adventure, -at five, thoroughly soaked with the rain, which commenced heavily soon -after my second departure, and for which I was thankful, as it partially -cleansed me from the ditch mud, and accounted for my dripping and soiled -state when I made my appearance before the earl, which I was obliged to -do, without changing my dress, at half past five." - - NAISI. - - - - -CHARACTER OF O'DONNELL, PRINCE OF TYRCONNELL IN THE SIXTEENTH CENTURY. - -(From the MS. Annals of the Four Masters, translated by Mr O'DONOVAN.) - - -A.D. 1537. In this year died O'Donnell (Hugh, son of Hugh Roe, who was -son of Niall Garve, who was son of Torlogh of the Wine), Lord of -Tyrconnell, Inishowen, Kinel-Moen,[A] Fermanagh, and Lower Connaught; a -man to whom rents and tributes had been paid by the people of other -territories over which he had acquired dominion and jurisdiction, such as -Moylorg, Machaire-Chonnacht, Clann-Conway, Costello, Gallen, Tirawly, and -Conmaicne-Cuile, to the west, and Oireacht-ui-Chathain (the patrimony of -O'Kane), the Route, and Clannaboy, to the east; for of all these there -was not one territory that had not given him pledges for the payment of -his tribute of protection. It was this man who had compelled the four -lords who ruled Tyrone in his lifetime, to give him new charters of -Inishowen, Kinel-Moen, and Fermanagh, by way of confirmations of the -ancient charters which his ancestors had held in proof of their right to -govern these countries; and this he had done, in order that he might -peaceably enjoy jurisdiction over them, and have authority to summon -their forces into the field when he wanted them. Neither in all this is -there anything to be wondered at, for never had victory been seen with -his enemies--never had he retreated one foot from any army, whether small -or numerous; he had been distinguished as an abolisher of evil customs, -and a restrainer of evil deeds, a destroyer and banisher of rebels and -plunderers, and a rigid enforcer of the Irish laws and ordinances after -the strictest and most upright manner; he was a man in whose reign the -seasons had been favourable, so that both sea and land had been profusely -productive while he continued on the throne;[B] a man who had -established every person in his country in his rightful hereditary -possessions, to the end that no one of them might bear enmity to another; -a man who had not suffered the power of the English to come into his -country, for he had formed a league of peace and amity with the King of -England so soon as he saw that the Irish would not yield the superiority -to any one chief or lord among themselves, but that friends and blood -relations fiercely contended against one another; and a man who had -carefully protected from harm or violation the Termon-lands (or -sanctuaries) belonging to the friars, churchmen, poets, and ollaves. - -This O'Donnell (Hugh, son of Hugh Roe) died on the 5th of July, in the -year of salvation 1537, being Wednesday, in the monastery of Donegall, -having first taken upon him the habit of St Francis, having bewailed his -crimes and iniquities, and done penance for his sins and transgressions. -He was buried in the same monastery, with all the honour and solemnity -which were his due; and Magnus O'Donnell was nominated to succeed him in -his place by the successors of St Columbkille [viz. the Abbots of -Kilmacrenan, Raphoe, and Derry], with the permission and by the advice of -the nobles of Tyrconnell, both lay and ecclesiastical. - -[A] Now the barony of Raphoe. - -[B] Cormac, in his instructions to his son Carbry, tells him that "when a -worthy prince reigns, the great God sends favourable seasons." It is -worthy of remark that, among the oriental nations, the same notion -prevails to the present day; and the poets of the East frequently express -their anticipations of favourable weather and abundant harvests upon the -accession of a peaceable monarch to the throne. - - - - -THE HARP. - - -The harp was the favourite musical instrument, not only of the Irish, but -of the Britons and other northern nations, during the middle ages, as is -evident from their laws, and from every passage in their history in which -there is the least allusion to music. By the laws of Wales, the -possession of a harp was one of the three things that were necessary to -constitute a gentleman, that is, a freeman; and no person could pretend -to that title, unless he had one of those favourite instruments, and -could play upon it. - -In the same laws, to prevent slaves from pretending to be gentlemen, it -was expressly forbidden to teach or to permit them to play upon the harp; -and none but the king, the king's musicians, and gentlemen, were allowed -to have harps in their possession. A gentleman's harp was not liable to -be seized for debt, because the want of it would have degraded him from -his rank, and reduced him to a slave. - -The harp was in no less estimation and universal use among the Saxons and -Danes; those who played upon this instrument were declared gentlemen by -law; their persons were esteemed inviolable, and secured from injuries by -very severe penalties; they were readily admitted into the highest -company, and treated with distinguished marks of respect wherever they -appeared. - - * * * * * - -ANECDOTE OF JEROME DUIGENAN, A HARPER.--Some curious tales are told of -Jerome Duigenan, a Leitrim harper, born in the year 1710. One is of so -extraordinary a character, that, were it not for the particularity of the -details, which savour strongly of an origin in fact, the editor would -hesitate to give it publicity. He is, however, persuaded that he has it -as it was communicated to O'Neill, between whose time and that of -Duigenan there was scarcely room for the invention of a story not -substantially true. It is as follows:--"There was a harper," says -O'Neill, "before my time, named Jerome Duigenan, not blind, an excellent -Greek and Latin scholar, and a charming performer. I have heard numerous -anecdotes of him. The one that pleased me most was this. He lived with a -Colonel Jones, of Drumshambo, who was one of the representatives in -parliament for the county of Leitrim. The colonel, being in Dublin, at -the meeting of parliament, met with an English nobleman who had brought -over a Welsh harper. When the Welshman had played some tunes before the -colonel, which he did very well, the nobleman asked him, had he ever -heard so sweet a finger? 'Yes,' replied Jones, 'and that by a man who -never wears either linen or woollen.' 'I bet you a hundred guineas,' says -the nobleman, 'you can't produce any one to excel my Welshman.' The bet -was accordingly made, and Duigenan was written to, to come immediately to -Dublin, and bring his harp and dress of _Cauthack_ with him; that is, a -dress made of beaten rushes, with something like a caddy or plaid of the -same stuff. On Duigenan's arrival in Dublin, the colonel acquainted the -members with the nature of his bet, and they requested that it might be -decided in the House of Commons, before business commenced.

U. - - - From the haunts of busy life, - Homes of care, and paths of strife, - Up the breezy mountain way, - 'Mid the upper fields of day, - Let me wander, far and lonely, - Without guide, save nature only; - And still ever as I go, - Lose all thought of things below, - Cast all sorrow to the wind, - While the low vales sink behind: - Fetterless and spirit free - As the merry mountain bee. - Like a spirit, thought and eye - Buoyant between earth and sky, - There to bask in free pure light - On the joyous mountain height; - Dallying with the breeze and shower, - Claiming kin with every flower, - Catching iris dreams that glance - On the breath of circumstance. - Changing with the changeful scene-- - Solemn, sombre, gay, serene: - As each change fresh wonders bring, - Weaving thought from every thing. - - Oft let shadowy hollows fall, - And grey cliffs' embattled wall - Crown the gloom with hoary height, - Where the raven wheels his flight. - Or green vale unfolding soft, - In the lonesome crags aloft - Shut the far down world from view. - There, long up ether's darkening blue, - The eye may gaze for worlds unseen, - In the skyey void serene, - And weave visions strange and fair, - Of the starry empires there-- - Spirits changeless, pure, and bright, - In their glorious vales of light; - Till some wild note break the spell - From sequester'd rural dell - Where the mountain goatherds dwell: - So to break the wild fond dream, - And to man bring down the theme; - For all earthly things impart - Thoughts of Man to human heart. - - Then from towery crag on high, - If far city win the eye, - Glittering through the misty air, - 'Twere a prospect meet and fair - For the lone sequestered gaze - O'er its wide uncertain maze, - Then to muse on wealth and fame, - And on every specious name - That gilds the dross of earth below, - Till, from reflection, wisdom grow. - Wisdom:--not that sense which cleaveth - To the world where all deceiveth; - Not grave prudence, hard, yet hollow-- - In the beaten round to follow - Lengthened aims, in life's short day, - While the ages glide away:-- - But that moral, old and sage, - Said and sung in every age; - Old as man--yet ever new, - Heard by all, and known to few; - Murmur of Being's wave, that still, - Unheeded as the babbling rill, - In the world's noise, makes music only - 'Midst the hush of deserts lonely. - - Last, from o'er the seaward steep, - Let me view the spacious deep, - While the billows break and flow - In the caverned gloom below. - There let cloud and sunbeam flee - O'er the sunned and shadowy sea-- - Light and dark in fleeting strife, - Like the vanities of life; - So to dream of joy and woe, - Imaged in the gliding show, - As they come, and as they fly, - To the verge of sea and sky; - So our joys and sorrows flee, - Onward to eternity. - Then away in spirit wrought - By the voluntary thought, - Where the heath is freshly springing, - Where the sky-borne lark is clinging - On mid air with lively song, - Which the echoing cliffs prolong; - O'er wild steep and dreamy hollow, - On, still onward let me follow. - While the airy morn is bright, - While rich noon is at its height, - Till eve falls with sober grey, - Freely let me roam away. - - - - -APOLOGUES AND FABLES, - -IN PROSE AND VERSE, FROM THE GERMAN AND OTHER LANGUAGES. - -(_Translated for the Irish Penny Journal._) - -No. 1.--THE DISCONTENTED STONES. - - -A mason was one day at work, building a stout wall to protect a garden; -nigh him lay a piled-up heap of stones, which he took into his hands in -succession, one by one, according as he wanted them. The stones on their -part submitted with exemplary quietness to be handled and introduced into -their appropriate places; for they were fully aware that the mason's -object was to erect a wall, and they knew equally well that that object -could not be attained, if they took it into their thick heads to rebel -against the principle upon which he was proceeding. At last, however, -somewhat to the mason's amusement, it did so happen, after he had -accomplished a considerable portion of his task, that one contumacious -fellow, upon being laid hold of, began to talk very big upon the rights -of stones, and the tyranny of coercing stonekind in general, declaring, -that for himself, whether in a wall or out of a wall, he was determined -to enjoy that liberty which was the birthright of every stone upon the -earth, and that he would sooner be trodden into powder than surrender it. - -"I tell you plumply and plainly, Master Mason," said he, "that I will not -be subjected to restraint. I must have scope for my energies. I must have -room to look about me, and be able to roll to the left side or to the -right, as I think proper, like a free agent!" - -The mason, on hearing this, could not refrain from laughing. "Truly," -said he, "I have lighted here on an eccentric specimen of the stony -tribe. So, my good friend, you wish to have room to roll about in--eh?" - -"Precisely," returned the other. - -"Did you ever hear of the adage, 'a rolling stone gathers no moss?'" - -"Yes, and despise it," answered the Stone; "a moss is a token of -antiquity; and antiquity and absurdity are synonymous terms in my -vocabulary. May heaven defend me from ever gathering moss!" - -"Whew!" whistled the mason, in a manner to indicate mingled surprise and -contempt. "Pray, what do you take yourself to be?" - -"What do I take myself to be! Just a stone--a wall stone--neither more -nor less." - -"And are you content that I should allot you a position in the wall?" - -"Certainly I am." - -"And yet," said the mason, "you declare you will not be satisfied to -remain under constraint? You must have room forsooth for your energies! -Really your inconsistency is most ridiculous. Come; I have no time to -lose; tell me at once what you would be at. Will you go into the wall, or -shall I deposit you again on the ground?" - -"I have made up my mind to oblige you by going into the wall," replied -the Stone, with a patronizing air; "but I will not be swindled out of my -natural rights! Liberty is the first of these--and I must have liberty, -even in a wall." - -"So you shall," said the man; "your liberty will be that of obtaining -your just position in the wall, and of maintaining it undisturbedly." - -"Bah! what stupid, sneaking notions you have of liberty, surely! I tell -you again that I must have space to expand and expatiate in. Do you think -that I can stoop to fill the office of a mere wedge?" - -"You tire out my patience, friend," said the mason: "there is no use in -arguing the matter further. I see I cannot get you to take up your -lodging in the wall: I see I must throw you on the earth again." - -"Very well; be it so," returned the Stone: "liberty before all things! -Pitch me to a respectable distance from the other stones, that I may feel -myself unshackled and independent. I have the same right to be a -free-_stone_ that you have to be a free-_mason_." - -"There, then," said the mason, and with the words he cast the Stone from -him into the middle of the highway. - -The Stone was now in the full enjoyment of its darling liberty. -Exceedingly did it congratulate itself. For a time also everything went -well with it. The summer was a mild one; the skies were bright, and the -foot of the passenger was continually transferring it to a new locality, -and showing it daily more and more of the _ways_ of the world. But, alas! -the summer could not last for ever: autumn came, and brought with it -clouds of dust and showers of yellow leaves; and when the wind-gusts had -subsided, there fell on the earth heavy torrents of rain; and the highway -was covered with mire, and the measure of the isolated stone was -forthwith taken for a surtout of mud; and there it lay, fallen from its -high estate, and completely confounded by the passing eye with the vilest -of the rubbish in its vicinity. - -But this was not the worst: in the course of a few weeks, the rains -continuing still to fall, and the mire to accumulate, the earth gave way -under it, and it became, as it were, imbedded in a hole produced by the -force of its own pressure on the soft soil, till at last no part of it -remained above ground except the upper surface. Unfortunately, too, there -was no longer a possibility of retracing its steps, for the wall was now -erected and the mason was far away. Nothing remained for it but to sink -deeplier and deeplier into the earth, until not a vestige of it remained -visible to the eye. Alas! for our poor Stone! Oh, Liberty! Oh, -Independence! ye are indeed desirable objects of attainment; but surely -they who seek ye at the expense of the great combining principle of -social order, commit a senseless and irremediable blunder. - -In the spring following, the mason was employed in building another wall. -He hoped that his work would be suffered to proceed without interruption -on this occasion at least, but he was speedily undeceived; for one of the -stones, just as in the previous year, began to grumble, and protest -against the treatment to which it was about to be subjected. The mason, -recollecting the former scene, was on the point of flinging it away at -once; but second thoughts suggested to him the eligibility of first -trying the effect of a little reasoning and remonstrance, "for, after -all," said he, aloud, "no two stones are alike, and though I have met -with one that was proof against argument, another may be less intractable -in my hands." - -"There it is!" cried the Stone impatiently; "no two stones alike!--that's -your foolish mistake, your ignorance. I tell you that there is no -difference between one stone and another: I am just as good as any stone -in the wall, and I insist on my prerogatives." - -"Hoity-toity!" exclaimed the mason, "but you are a sturdy beggar! Will -you be condescending enough to define your prerogatives? I will thank you -to tell me briefly how you would have me dispose of you." - -"I want to be a corner-stone, then," said the rebel, "and a corner-stone -I will be. I stand on my rights: all stones are equal; so, quick!--let me -occupy a position in the corner." - -"That you cannot do, my friend," returned the mason: "don't you see that -the corner-stones are already in their places?" - -"I see that well enough," said the Stone; "but you can take one of them -out, and install me in its place. I have as clear a right to be there as -any of them: equality is the badge of us all: every one of us is from a -common quarry: we are all stones alike. Take one of them out, and put me -in." - -"Now, see how grossly inconsistent you are!" urged the workman: "all -stones, you assert, are equal, and have the same rights: yet you would -have me rudely displace and degrade one of them for your pleasure, -though, according to your own acknowledgment, you are not a bit better -than he is! Upon my word, but you have enlightened conceptions of what -constitutes equality. But I cannot stand here arguing the question with -you all day; my time is precious; I beg you will decide whether you are -satisfied to form part of the wall or not." - -"Assuredly I am," said the other, "but only as a corner stone. How can -you be so blind as not to see that we are all stones alike, and all -therefore equal?" - -"You _are_ all stones alike," replied the mason, "and so far equal, in a -certain sense; but your equality consists merely in your being all liable -to serve as wall-stones, not in your being all qualified for the place of -corner-stones." - -"A truce with your slavish doctrines!" cried the malcontent; "either make -of me a corner-stone, or build your wall without me." - -"Is that your final decision?" asked the mason. "I warn you not to trifle -with me, for I cannot let my work wait for you any longer." - -"I have said it," said the Stone. "I would see your wall trampled into -dust, and the whole universe along with it, before I would surrender my -great principle. Do what you please." - -"Go, then, refractory wronghead," exclaimed the mason, "go and enjoy your -equality where none will be likely to dispute it!" And so saying, he cast -the Stone from him with a vigorous jerk; and the Stone, after it had -completed its journey through the air, fell down, and from the force of -its own gravitation sank several feet low into the bottom of a deep and -slimy pool. - -This was, for all historical purposes, the termination of its existence. -What became of it in the pool ultimately, it is impossible to conjecture, -for half a century has elapsed since; but as a total extinguisher was put -upon its aspirations after notoriety by the accident, it is highly -probable that if not worn quite away by the friction of the surrounding -mud and water, it was at least gnawed to the core, in a moral sense, by -its regrets for the folly of its past misconduct--regrets which we may -suppose to have been shared in a pretty equal degree by its twin-brother -of the preceding year, which had stickled so stoutly in its colloquy with -the mason for its favourite theory of liberty and independence. - - - - -THE AIR WE BREATHE. - - -The objects which come every day before our eyes, the offices which -involuntarily and almost unconsciously we at each moment must perform in -order that we may live, are precisely the subjects concerning which the -mass of mankind are least curious, and of the true nature and utility of -which they are the most completely ignorant. It is thus with the air we -breathe. There is no person but is aware of the necessity of breathing, -and of the motion of the air caused by winds; but how few have asked -themselves, What is air? How much is there of it? Could the same air be -always used for breathing? How do fishes manage living in water in place -of air? Yet the information thus obtainable might be the means of saving -the lives of hundreds, as certainly the ignorance on these points has -been the source of death, by painful and lingering torture, in many -cases. We purpose, therefore, now to give some information about air, to -show the importance of it to mankind, and to indicate how much we owe to -the Omniscient Providence that has given to air the properties that we -find it to possess. - -Although "trifles light as air" has become a proverb, yet air is -positively heavy. A hogshead of air weighs about ten ounces; this is -heavier than the gas which is burned in the streets and shops, of which a -hogshead would weigh only seven ounces; and very much heavier than -hydrogen gas, with which balloons were formerly filled, a hogshead of -hydrogen gas weighing only two-thirds of an ounce. A balloon filled with -hydrogen, or even with coal gas, rises into the air, as oil or a cork -rises up through water. The air being thus heavy, presses upon the earth; -and by measuring the degree of pressure we can tell how much air there -is. This is done by an instrument termed a barometer--a glass tube closed -at one end, and which, having been filled with quicksilver, is turned -upside down in a cup containing quicksilver also. The tube being shut at -the top, the air does not press on the quicksilver inside, but presses -upon that in the basin; the quicksilver in the tube, which tends -naturally to fall down into the basin, is thus forced to remain up in the -tube by the pressure of external air; and it rises so high that the -pressure inside, of the quicksilver, and outside, of the air, is equal. -If the pressure of the air diminishes, the quicksilver falls; if the -pressure of the air increases, the quicksilver rises: and as all great -changes of the air are connected with changes of the weather, the -barometer is generally known and consulted as a sort of weather-glass. - -Every space of an inch square supports fifteen pounds weight of air; at -the rate of ten ounces to a hogshead, the depth of the air would -therefore be about five miles. But it is much deeper, for air is what is -termed compressible--that is to say, it may by pressure be squeezed into -a smaller bulk; and hence the air next the ground, being compressed by -the portions above it, is much the heaviest portion. At three miles high -a hogshead of air weighs only five ounces, and at eight miles high only -two ounces; hence the limits of the air are much farther removed, and it -is known to extend to at least forty miles. - -The office of the air is to support animal life: no animal can live -without air: even fishes require air. The water in which they swim -contains air mixed with it, and this water washing the gills, which are -their lungs, serves to them as the air directly acts on us. If we boil -water until the air is expelled from it, and let it cool in a close -vessel, we may drown a fish by putting it into such water, as easily as a -land animal; it could not breathe. It is thus that in the lakes on the -tops of very high mountains there are no fish. The heights are deserted -by land and by water animals, in consequence of the air being too thin to -support life. The way in which the air acts upon the body is very -interesting. The most abundant element of our food is what the chemists -term carbon, of which, in a gross manner, charcoal may serve as an -example. Now, we eat much more of this than we require for the supply of -our bodies, and it must be got rid of. This is done by its uniting in the -body with a substance termed oxygen, and forming carbonic acid, the sort -of air which boils up in soda water and ginger beer. This dissolves in -the blood, colouring it a deep purple, and escapes from it when by the -action of the heart the black blood is exposed to the action of the air -on the surface of the lungs. Now, the office of the air is to supply this -oxygen which removes the carbon from the blood. But the air is not pure -oxygen. If it were, it would act too violently. An animal which breathes -pure oxygen, becomes flushed, pants violently, and, if not choked, dies -of inflammation of the lungs, produced by the intense action. In the air -we breathe, the oxygen gas is diluted to the proper degree by another -gas, termed nitrogen, which is totally destitute of power; it does of -itself no good and no harm; it is the only substance that could be mixed -in the air we breathe, without interfering in any way. When thus the -blood loses, by exposure to the air in the lungs, its carbonic acid, it -takes oxygen in its place; from dark purple it becomes bright red, and is -then proper to take up a fresh quantity of carbon, and to sustain the -body in health by its removal. - -When any thing burns in the air, it is the oxygen which is active. The -nitrogen dilutes here also the oxygen, and keeps its activity down to the -degree most suitable to our wants. If the air were pure oxygen, all our -domestic fires would be violent conflagrations; our iron pokers and -tongs, if heated red hot, would take fire and burn like squibs; no -comfort, no safety for society could exist. But in burning, this oxygen -is destroyed. If a candle be placed lighted under a glass bell, it will, -after a little, go out. The air will become unfit to support combustion. -Here also, as well as in the burning of coals, coke, gas, oil, charcoal, -&c. the oxygen is changed into carbonic acid, and precisely as a fresh -supply of oxygen is necessary for the continuance of life, so is it for -combustion. - -The air contains about one part in five of oxygen, and, as has been seen, -this oxygen is liable to continual destruction by the breathing of -animals and the burning of fuel and of lights. An ordinary man spoils in -twenty-four hours 720 cubic feet of air, that is, a mass of air 11 feet 6 -inches square and 6 feet thick. The burning of three ounces of charcoal, -or of a mould candle of six to the pound, produces the same effect. It is -not unusual in a factory to burn ten tons of coal a-day, which spoils -3,185,760 cubic feet of air, a mass of a quarter of a mile square and six -feet thick. If we multiply these numbers by the number of inhabitants, of -man and of all other animals upon the earth, and also by the quantity of -fuel burned all over the globe, it will be evident that without some -regulating power superior to all that mere human means could devise, the -air might ultimately become unfit to be the sustenance of living beings, -and all the numerous tribes of animated nature which now adorn its -surface, would be destroyed. - -By the all-wise arrangement of Providence, however, the animals, in thus -converting the oxygen of the air into carbonic acid, become the means of -supplying nourishment to another class of beings equally interesting and -numerous. All vegetables breathe; but as animals take in too much carbon -with their solid food, so do plants obtain too little from the substances -that give nourishment to their roots. The animal breathes to give off -carbon, the vegetable breathes to take it up. The two great divisions of -living nature thus act in contrary ways upon the air; the oxygen consumed -by the animal or by combustion, is given out again by the carbon of the -carbonic acid becoming fixed in the plant of which it forms the woody -mass; and thus the composition of the air is kept balanced at its proper -point, and provision for the due nutrition of animals and vegetables is -secured. - -The air we breathe serves, however, for other important uses. Without the -air, the fresh breezes which moderate the heats of summer could not -exist, and there would prevail in nature an eternal silence, for it is by -means of air that we not only breathe, but hear. The variety of aspect -given to the sky by the formation and rapid change of clouds, arises from -the mixture of warm and of cold damp air. If there was no air, there -might be dew, but there could never be a cloud. - -Without the air we could not have the bright blue sky which gives to our -fine season its greatest charm. The heavens would be a vault of intense -black, in which the sun would appear alone a glaring ball of fire, whose -rays, unmitigated by the air which now absorbs them in their passage -through its mass, would be a continual source of ill. The blue sky, the -bright white clouds, arise from the sun's rays being partly stopped, and -turned from one object to another. The sun's rays really consist of light -of all the colours of the rainbow; of these the red portion is lost in -passing through the air, and the blue remains, giving the colour we -observe. Without the air, a place shaded from the sun would be in -absolute darkness; as it now exists, a quantity of light is scattered -about in every way by the different portions of the air, and thus an -agreeable shade provided in place of the total absence of all light. On -very elevated tops of mountains, where the traveller is placed above the -greater portion of the air, all these effects of its absence which we -have noticed, are found to exist. On the summit of Mont Blanc, a pistol -discharged is scarcely heard, and a companion once out of sight, may be -lost; for neither can he produce any noise by his own exertions, nor -could his voice reach his friends, even if he could speak; the sky is -deep indigo-coloured, or nearly black; and those objects on which the -sun's light does not directly fall, are seen with difficulty. - -Such are the uses of the common air we breathe. Such are the benefits we -derive from a blessing, of whose existence when at rest we are almost -unconscious. - - - - -ABSENCE OF MIND.--A well-known gentleman of Magdalen College, Cambridge, -had taken his watch from his pocket, to mark the time he intended to boil -an egg for his breakfast, when a friend entering the room, found him -absorbed in some abstruse calculation, with the egg in his hand, upon -which he was intently looking, and the watch supplying its place in the -saucepan of boiling water. - - - - -EARLY RISING.--Six or seven hours' sleep is certainly sufficient, and no -one ought to exceed eight. To make sleep refreshing, the following things -are requisite:--To take sufficient exercise in the open air; to avoid -strong tea or coffee; to eat a light supper; and to lie down with a mind -as cheerful and serene as possible. We hardly ever knew an early riser -who did not enjoy a good state of health. It consists with observation, -that all very old men have been early risers. This is the only -circumstance attending longevity, to which we never knew an exception. - - - - -Printed and Published every Saturday by GUNN and CAMERON, at the Office -of the General Advertiser, 6 Church Lane, College Green, Dublin. - - - - -TRANSCRIBERS' NOTES - - -Page 10: developement as in the original (two occurrences) -Page 12: rere as in the original in "My only chance was to get at the - rere" -Page 13: Donegall as in the original in "monastery of Donegall" -Page 16: Magdalen as in the original in "Magdalen College, Cambridge" - - - - - -End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of The Irish Penny Journal, No. 2, Vol. -I, July 11, 1840, by Various - -*** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK IRISH PENNY JOURNAL, JULY 11, 1840 *** - -***** This file should be named 42201-8.txt or 42201-8.zip ***** -This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: - http://www.gutenberg.org/4/2/2/0/42201/ - -Produced by Brownfox and the Online Distributed Proofreading -Team at http://www.pgdp.net (This file was produced from -images generously made available by JSTOR www.jstor.org) - - -Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions -will be renamed. - -Creating the works from public domain print editions means that no -one owns a United States copyright in these works, so the Foundation -(and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without -permission and without paying copyright royalties.
