THE IRISH FAMINE.
The Canada Weekly “ Globe ” of Jan. 2 contains the following items : “ The Irish Homan Catholic clergy of Montreal refuse to countenance the movement for obtaining relief for Ireland as unwarranted by circumstances.” “ The following damper on subscriptions to the fund for the relief of Ireland is published by the rev. gentlemen named below.— P. Dowd, St. Patrick’s ; J. Hogan, St. Ann’s; Jas. Loncrgan, St. .Bridget’s; and J. J. Salmon : Gentlemen of the Committee, —We think the proposal to collect funds in Montreal for the relief of certain portions of Ireland is premature. At home where the nature and extent of the want must be well and correctly known, no general movement has so far taken place to draw help from the more favored portions of the country, and no appeal has been made to obtain relief from any responsible organisation. ”
