Important From Canada.
MONTREAL, Nov. 8.

MoNRTEAL, Nov. 3.
An uneasy feeling has prevailed in this
city for some time; an underlined appre-
hension that Britain is on the eve Of a
contest with the United States, in which,
of course, Canada would be involved
The daily steamers from Quebec have
been quietly bringing up shot, and of late
shell and a number of Armstrong guns,
and on the LIST instant we were startled
by the announcement that the Ariadne,
one of tho finest frigates in the British
navy, had passed Farther Point on her
way TO Quebec, where she is now lying.
The Ariande, it seems, has brought up
two troops of artillery and quantity Of
stores. 1t is now said that regiment
from Halifax is coming into Canada, and
that at least 10000 men will be concen-
trated in this city during the winter. In
a provincial town there are always plenty
of people who know far better than any
body else the why and wherefore Of ev.
cry European or American potentate oil
politician. They now say that Admiral
Wilkes blockade of Bermuda is the cause
of the reinforcement of the Canadian gar
risons. How true this surmise may be
your readers can Judge as we'll as your
correspondent Correspondent Of w. Y

CONGRESS.

Congress assemblies again in little less
than three weeks, and what is to be, or
ought to be, its work. The best means
to save the country II is really to be
hoped that the legislation of the last Con-
gress, on the everaive negro question,
followed BY the late emancipation procla-
nation Of the President, will suffice for
at least one session, and our wslfare, as
nation, consulted. The fact is apparent
that some policy more conservative, moro
vigorous, moro effectual aud less fanatical
and ruinous, must soon, very soon, be
adopted in the prosecution of the war
or we shall not long be a great people, a
glorious, powerful government. The peo-
pie have good reason and a right to de-
mand of their Representatives an earnest,
unselfsh and undivided effort for the clos
ing of tho war and the restoration of
peace. Why should all our bright hopes
and glorious prospects, as nation, utter
iy fail, for want Of action, conservative,
prompt aud noble actionl Why should
commerce and trade, the keystone Of our
national greatness, be longer placed under
embargo or jeopardizedi Why should
tho industry and labor of the Republic
be taxed so severely, ruinously, to keep
so long in the field million and half
Of men in the government service accom-
plishing but little of desirable progress
Why should longer the flower of the ma
ton, by themselves, be called upon to
waste their precious lives in camp, BY dis
eases peculiar to the climate?
Will not Congress, at once, on assem-.
bling, give these all important questions
merited attention? We believe, Invested
of the wicked spirit of radicalism, there
is patriotism, true, heartfelt patriotism
in our rulers, in Congress, in the people
sufficient to save the country, if set &c
work for the salvation of the Union alone

RUSSIA AND THE UNITED STATES
Russia entertains lively sympathy for
the United States of America, based on
mutual friendship and common interests.
Their prosperity she deems necessary for
the general equilibrium. The mainte-
nance of the Union is the condition of
that power and happiness which she de-
sires for the American nation. We are
in position to affirm that the friendly
and conciiatory views Of the Imperial
Cabinet have not undergone the slightest
change. On the contrary, the events
which have taken place, the sad expert
ence Of war, of its calamities, its burdens,
its exhausting results, have tended rather
to confirm than TO weaken their force

The GRAIN TRADE OF BUFFALo.-The
statistics of the grain trade of Buffalo,
published by the Express, show the re-
ceipts of grain, including flour, to have
been larger from January LIST TO Novem-
Der /, 1862, than for the same period Of
any four previous years. The figures in
round numbers are, for 1862, 63,0OO,-
600 bushels; 1861, 100000 bushels
1850, Sl,o00,00o bushels; 1859, l6,-
100000 bushels; 1858, 26, 5000 BUSH
els. The revenue from canal tolls this
season will make up about $4,000, 900,
or about fifty per cent increase on the pre-
vious year.

How THE PRESIDENT TAKES THE ELEc-
TIoN.-The President takes the result of
the election in New York quite philosoph-
ically, and will, doubtless, profit by the
lesson. When Col. Forney inquired of
him how he felt about New York, Mr..
Lincoln replied: Somewhat like that
boy in Kentucky, who stubbed his toe
while running to SEQ bis sweetheart. The
boy said he was too big TO cry, and far
too badly hurt TO laugh Wash. Cor.

On CnAsE.-It is gratifying omen
that the pirate alabama is TO be looked
after spiritedly, as we have reason TO ex-
pect, from the number of vessels dispatch

equally formidable, ohoat for the dcstruc-

Stockton, of Mt. Clemens, is intended 10
be, and from the energy and ability Of
Col. s. we believe ,oiU be, one of the

which has or may be raised in Michigan.
Companies for this regiment are being
raised in different parts of the State, and
already some of the men have arrived in
camp. The rendezvous of this regiment
is at Mt. Clemens, one of the most pleas
ant and healthful places in the State.-
Col. S. has had experience as military
officer, and for many years has given
much attention to military matters. He
will be most efficient and popular Off

service of their country, cannot do better
than to enlist in the 9th Cavalry.-Mus-

The Louisville Journal on the Election.

The elections of last Tuesday, we re-
joice to announce, have resulted in a
mighty conservative triumph, rounding
of and completing the glorious victory of
the October elections.
Tho radicals, if we may Judge from
the imperfect returns at hand, have ev-
crywhere lost heavily, and 10 New York,
New Jersey and Illinois, they have been
swept from the face Of things. The con-
scrvativc gain in the State of New York
cannot be less than 100000 votes. Ac-
cepting the estimate of the telegraph, al
ways partial to the radicals, the radical
loss even in Massachusetts,, the South
Carolina Of the North, is at least $4,000.
Judging in like manner, the radical loss
in Michigan, one of the most thoroughly
abolitionized States in the North, is up
wards of 10000. These conclusions are
justified by the first impressions of the
telegraph, which, as we have iutimated,
are colored by radical sympathies. I'm
doubtedly fuller and more authentic in
telligence will enlarge and heighten these
conclusions.
Certain it is that the general result of

the grandest description. The Union and
the constitution have prevailed in the
North most sigually. Let us hope tina;
they will ere long prevail as signally in
the South. This is one important branch
of the lesson of the peaceful victory
now consummated in the North. The
sword, without equivocation or uncertain.
ty, will henceforth be welded against the
Southern rebels for the selfsame end for
which the ballot has been welded against
the Northern radicals, and, we confident
ly believe, with favorable result not
less decisive and not by any means rc-
mote.
In point Of fact, as we conceive this
conservative victory in the North virtual.
ly solves one-half of the national problem
the question as to the re-establishment Of
Tie government in the revolving States
which we have been accustomed 10 reck.
on by far the most delicate aud difficult
part Of the problem, leaving only the task
of breaking up the military power of the
rebellion, SO that the people may be al
