W e suppose ths L eg- latu reof New York knew wbat it was about, although we doubt the propriety o f the passage o f tke law. It is a well known fact that the Royal family o f England have intermarried for years, as also have the Rothohilds o f Europe. W e cannot see that it has in the least demoralised them. You are all right, sir. Put your trust in me. I ’ ll buy Ireland, and you shall have as good a chance as any man. I am going to sail right away. You will hear about me as soon as I touch the Emerald shores. I shall get out sorao advertisements and make my presence known.

But have you heard anything ot Mr. Train? Do you know i f he got out any advertisements? A nd do you know i f they received him heartily there, and more especially i f they took care o f him 7 This last is the maiu thing with my rolative. I f they took care o f Mr. Train it is all he caret for. He baa said to me repeatedly that all he is afraid o f is that he hae been neg lected and not taken care of. I f he were to hear that Mr. Tram ia there, in a strange land, without any place to stay, it would nearly break his heart. If you could ouly inform u* that Mr. Train is safe, and has been received hospitably, and has a good tranquil place to board in, suitable to a quiet man like him, it would be a great comfort to the old man.
