The Chicago Herald says :—The world weeps in sympathy with un- happy Ireland because of her many evicted tenants, driven from house and home by the wealthy landlord. It will be a .hock to many susceptible American hearts to learn that the grief and misery of the evicted tenant is but a cupful when compared. with the grief and misery of the American tenant. There were for the year 1890.4 little over 5,000 cases of eviction in all Ireland. The same year the evicted tenants in New York city alone num- bered 23,895, and in Chicago there were not less than 14,000 evictions. The Irish evicted ones are not wholly devoid .of tneane, and easily obtain some shelter, even if it be lacking in comfort. Besides, they are men of brawn and skill, and are able to obtain some sort of more or less remunerative employment. The American tenant, though driven into the street with hie scant belongings, is more or less help- less and in a depth of destitution which it is almost impossible to fathom. BIItTIIS.
