ant general, within few weeks from the present
time, the enormous sum Of thlrty-hye millions OF
money. That they will be able TO do this, no sane
man pretends TO assert. The bare mention OF tho
thing is received an absurdity. The only ques-
ton Is as TO how the difficulty may be met. Much
anxiety prevails the subject and various
plans are proposed; these will be found in our city
article, in another column. For ourselves we pro-
nounce no opinion. Our duty has been performed;
and now We leave the matter in other hands. The
danger was pointed out the advice and warning oft
times reiterated The first was disbelieyed, the last
rldculed, and now we point 10 the event. The
deposites cannot be paid in compliance with the
standing orders and II Is rumored that these
will be relaxed, that those may not he avoided The
speaker according TO the city reports, Is TO vary the
orders, and allow the deposites 10 be paid by install
ments. Whether that functonaTy Is invested with
such power, Is open To doubt Ii Is certainly de-
sirabe that something should be done, and speedily
but as to what should he done, and whether that
will be done which Is reported, we give opinion.
But we call attention TO the report ITSELF the very
istence OF which proves the soundness Of our argu-
ments, and the truth OF our predictions.

The last reports from Cork, Galway, Londonder-
ry, and Of the midland districts relative the
potato disease, continue favorable, and the harsh
weather OF the past ten days appears TO have had
injurious influence on the crops, far those To-
calities concerned. The Cork Southern Rspor-
ter in its circular OF Saturdays date, reterates
its opinion "that little exaggeralion existed upon
the subject" Of the potato panic. From Kerry,
however, the accounts not satisfactory.

meeting, and aPologized for his absence from the
meetings Of the association, and assured them thai
that absence was not caused by any diminution OF
zeal in the cause OF his country. The honorable
gentleman then handed in the sum of $40, from the
county OF Limerick, including his subscription
for the year 1886. Mr.. J. 0'Connel read .trer
from Newfoundland IN which the writer 1.-The Rev.
Denis Macken) expressed wish that the Almighty
Giyer Of all good gifts should spare the berator's
yigOr of mind and body. Mr.. O'Connell then nd-
dressed the meeting at great length, and took re

We read in the Paris National; IF we well
informed, the ministry has changed It's mind about
the Madagascar expedition. Not that II has given
up the cooperation Of England but tho language OF
the press SUCH that has resolved not TO adopt
any determination before the chamber shall have
given its opinion the subject. All the details Of
the expedition have been prepared; the captain nom
mated; the command Of the 1900 men that were to
form the troops to be landed, given to General Du-
vivier-but the departure Of the vessels is postponed
to February. ...'. '. ~.

The advces from Madrid are to the 4th ut
The Madrid Gazette contains nothing to confirm
the account given by the Heraldo of the receipt of
intelligence of a revolution at Buenos Ayres, and
the deposition Of Rosas. Our accounts from Buenos

The Nuremberg correspondence states positively,
that when the Emperor of Russia was at Genoa, he
addressed Don Carlos "my- cousin" Our con-
temporary jumps rather hastily at the conclusion,
that the Emperor has, therefore, recognised Don
Carlos the legitimate King Of Spain.
The Espanol pretends to have received nforma-
ton that the King Of Naples has, at the nstigaton
of the Emperor of Russia, refused to counteDance
marriage between his brother, the Count de Trape-
