Revolutionary Excitement in Canada.

~---~N~''
Revolutionary Excitement in Canada.
Late. papers from the far North intimate the-prob
ability of another revolutionary attempt in portions
of Canada. The Buffalo Express Of the 29th ult.
says that from the tone of the conservative press
in Canada East, it infers that the recent momen-
tous proceedings in Europe have created profound
sensation throughout that Province, and especially
among the inhabitants of French extraction. The
Montreal and Quebec journals of the class above
mentioned, are considerably alarmed at the indica-
tons, and are striving to suppress the excitement,
by referring to the events of 1887 and 1888, and
denouncing the present agitation equally feversh
and equally dangerous to rational liberty. mani
festo has been issued in favor of an immediate
agitation, for a repeal of the Union of the two
Provinces. This the French Canadians say is
necessary to save themselves from political subser-
viency and national suicide. The movement, of
course, is denounced by the conservatives. There
was meeting of young French Canadians in Mont
real on Friday, the 2lst ult, at which an address
was adopted to the young men of Paris, in the
name of the young men of Montreal, congratulating
them upon the. late events in that capital, which
have created such intense interest in every part of
the world This step is strong y censured by the
conservative papers.

Montreal by number of young men, under the

[From the Baltimore Patriot Washington Correspondence
Personal APPEARANCE OF OUR GREAT Man.
In looking over the g assembled wisdom of the
nation as drawn together the Senate Chamber,
this morning. the observing spectator could not help
remarking the very great change which four years
have made in the personal appearance of NH. Polk.
He appears at least to be ten years older than he
appeared at the time Of his Inauguration. His hair
is not only much more thin and white, but the lines
in his facial over his face-are deeper and more
strongly marked. His chin is less firm. In fine, at
the age of some ffty-four, his whole appearance is
that of an old man. Surely he has been reposing
for four years past on no bed of roses One begins
to have sympathy for hm-for the man, not for his
political aspirations Mr.. Buchanan looks gay and
sleek, and, as ever, the old bachelor. Little Mr..
Walker seems to grow less, and more feeble-Mr.
Marcy not less Sly
There is another man who had changed muchof
late in his personal appearance-w has grown
old rapidly. It. John G. Calhoun. True, he wears
his hair much longer than formerly, which gives
him more venerable appearance, but close OBJ
server will see yet stronger marks of advancing
years, in the deep lines OF his remarkable face and
also in his step and men, 1t is the general wish of
all who know him, that he would cause to be cut
off some of that superintendent hair. Its weight
and heat ought to be sufficient to give him fever.
