Ar n-athair atá air neamh ; go naomhthar

tar do thoil air an talamh, mar ghnidhthear

laethamhuli; & maith dhúinn ar bh-fiacha,
mar mhaitheamuid-ne d'ar bh-fiachamhnaibh

ach saor sinn ó olc. — Amén.

In the two last Gaels, we mentioned
"An Irish Patriot," a new book just
from the press, because we think that
no Irish family should be without it.
Now, to be consistent with our procla¬
mation of covering the dead walls of
America with printed matter making a
comparison between the social status
of Irishmen, when they governed
themselves, and their would be masters
of to-day, we shall send a copy of the
book, free of charge, to any one who
sends us three new subsribers to the
Gael : and, beforehand, we pledge our
reputation that no action of his ever
pleased the receiver more than this,
after he has read the book. The book
will please young and old for it is full
of love and adventure, and the story
is told in that simple, dignified phrase¬
ology which lends a peculiar charm to
its recital.
Where the Irish lose by not assert¬
ing themselves, is in political prestige,
unless very largely in the majority. —
Thus, Tammany, or Crokerism, is sim¬
ply, Irish. What is the difference be¬
tween Crokerism and Plattism? — The
former represents brilliant social ante¬
cedents ; the latter — the parvenu and
the upstart, in that regard. This, read¬
er, is history, and if the Irish assert it,
policies and not individuals will be the
future party shibboleth.
The Gael.
The late Archbishop McHale — “The
Lion of The Fold" — believing that there
could be no Irish nation without the na¬
tional Language, insisted on its being
taught in all the schools under his juris¬
diction. These schools are continued to-day
by his followers — and their organ is THE
GAEL, which is printed in Irish and Eng¬
lish, and gives easy lessons in Irish, com¬
mencing with the Irish alphabet, "ab" etc.
Are there Irish-born men in this country
who do not know their native language or
its alphabet? If there be, for their own
credit and in justice to their children, they
should not delay a moment without send¬
ing $1, for a year's subscription to the
editor of THE GAEL, M. J. LOGAN, 267
