THE IRISH MASSACRE OF 1641.
From the defeat of the Gimpowdor
I'M in 1605, until the 23d of October
1641, the Papists and the Protestants liv
ed on the most intimate terms in Ireland.
Both went publicly to their respective
places of worship uaM that fatal itwrarnjr
when one of the most heart-rendiux mas-
nacres ever recorded on the pages of his
tory toon juace. uowley JLanceUas, the
historian, informs us, that upon the re
pulse of O'Neil from the Camle of Ang
her, he ordered " all the British Pretent-
ants in three mljitcent parih to be put
to the svwrd." Upon his defeat at Lis
burn, Lord Caulfield, O'Neil's former host
aim htty other prisoners were murdered.
Others on pretence of forwarding them to
the nearest JJrritish settlement, were goad
ed forward like beasts of burden by their
guards; some were enclosed in a house
or in a castle, to which lire was set, with
a savage indifference to their cries, and
a henuish-like triumph over their expir
ing agonies : borne were
Some were drowned in the !
first river they arrived at. One hundred
'and ninety were at once thrown headlong
from the bridge of Portadoum. Irish
priests encouraged this deed by their
presence. The very women, it is said,
einbrued their hands in the blood of the
slain ; even the children were seen plav-
ing unconsciously with their feeble hands

at the door, and I didn't know why
every droit of blood in my body leaped
and bo 11 tuled and rushed through me like
a torrent. I saw my mother's arms stiff
en as with a spasm, as my father arose
to open the door. I comprehended all
now. I remembered the awful scene of
yesterday, and knew that the white bun-
I . ilm qLU aa k.Kto..
and that her cofhu was at the door. I
prevented me.
i . .
My father took the small coffin in and
laid it on a chair and again seated him
self by the lire side, gazing furtively up
on his wife, as bIic sat there with a look
in her eyes he had never seen befora.
After a while she got np, opened one of
trm th.it
a chest of drawers and took out a long
white veil. I bad seen it a thousand
times.' it was her mother's bridal-veil
an old fashioned blond. It looked quite
yellow and very soft, as she shook out the
folds I saw that her thin hands trembled
violently, and that she closed her eyes
heavily; so heavily that I feared she
would never open th'em again. 1
At last she raised their lids, oh f how
dry and tearless they looked as she pass- "
ed to her hiW'eotfif., opened tty and raid
within the bridal-veil ot her mothers !
Softly she Smoothed' and patted it down,
against the rough sides ot the little pind '
coffin, shedding no tears, but trembling
all over .iike.au autumn leaf, beaten, ana
torn by a bitter and bleak wind.
She passed to the body of the murder- -,
ed babe, anil drew the carering from ita
gentle face. There was a cruel mark up
on the snowy forehead1iind. mx.mpther
covered it witlv her fumd as ehe lifted
the child to her tooin. and carried it lovr,
ingl v to its little bed. The small and d.nvT"
pled hands were .folded meekly upon the
unconscious and senseless breast of my
darling sister. Aud as my poor mother
lilted a corner df the rich veil and tried
to hide the dark wound on the baby's
forehead, something in the action broke
broken and childish spirit.
-I gathered the mde quilt of my little
Jwi wy- hands, and held if temy month
to 8tiffo(.Uet,aries I felt even then in my
extremity pfjaiiguish to be cutting and
stabbing ar'my mother's lacerated breast,
like the repeated blows of a sharp, relent
less knife. I realized erfectly that her
heart was broken, and that my longings
and aspirations after manhood for her
sake, had been would be all in vain.
She was passing away. The last star
that shone upon my blank and solitary
life, was going out, and I should be left in
utter terrible darkness.
- r
Well thedav for the funeral came, and
we followed the baby-corps to its resting
place in the old church-yard, and left her
there for a brief space alone.
