Agus naċ é súd riaġal na Sacsanaċ ariaṁ o fuair siad treise;
Tá slóiġ ag Tuaiġ na h-Éireann 's tá siad glaimeaṁuil gangaideaċ,
Bonnaṁ Gaill 's eiltireaċaiḃ agus ní carad dom-sa 'n traeḃ.
'S tá mo ċlann féin a gearraiḋe ċeile go h-éadṁar & go acaiseaċ,
Agus go ḃ-fuasglaiḋe riġ ḃ-flaiṫeas dúinn, naċ cruaiġ é mo cor."
Cumṫa le Maitias Ua Guairiam, Deas Ḃasdon.
The Gael article on finance recently published
in the Burlington (Ia.) Evening Post has brought
hundreds of newspapers, pro and con the Silver
Issue, to our desk. Now, in answer to all these,
the Gael being primarily devoted to the Preserva¬
tion and Cultivation of the Irish Language, and,
therefore, has very small space for extraneous
matters, it would simply ask of all those clamor¬
ing for "sound money” to define what sound mo¬
ney is in view of the fact that all the gold in the
whole world is less than eight billions while its
National debt is $27,000,000,000 ?
We want the money of ages, silver, on a proper
basis, to go hand and hand with gold on this con¬
tinent.
Owing to our pica type being taken up with the
translations, O'Curry's, and Bourke's Lessons are
held over — they will appear as we want to correct
the typographical errors in the Lessons, which
are published now in book form by Mr Kennedy
of New York, at One Dollar.

Once again it is our painful province to mourn
and record the demise of two true Irishmen, and
Gaelic Brothers. — Mr. Michael Cusack of Averill
Park N. Y, and Mr. Michael J. Ginley of Clarks¬
ville, Tenn. Mr. Cusack was born in the county
Clare, Ireland, 85 years ago, was a genuine Irish
Nationalist, and one of O'Connell’s lieutenants in
the Repeal Movement. The Catholic Weekly of
Troy devotes a full column to its review of Mr.
Cusack's labors in behalf Catholicity years ago
when it was in need of energetic support.
Mr. Ginley was born in the county Galway, and
was one of the first subscribers to the Gael. Both
deceased were excellent Irish scholars. —

ruiḋe d'a n-anmannaiḃ. — Ámén.
