The Lake Erie Sensation 0yer--
No Rebels Found AAoat.


Especial uispateh to the Chlcseo Tribunal
DErBo1T, Nov. IS, 1858.
The sensational hash up Of news sent abroad
In the Ftxs Press Was absurdly dispropo1tion-
ate to the stste Of feeling here. Tbs widest
rumors indeed temporarily prevailed, here as
e1fewhere, but carried with them their own
correction, as too ridiculous for credence.
Well informed Canadians across the river
treated the rumors very lightly, and, notwith-
standing the vaporing OF rebel sympathtzsrs,it
is received by intelligent men On both sldes Of
the river as true, that any overt act on the
part Of the rebel refugees In Canada to make
war npon the Omitted States from that soil
will be followed BY their immediate expul-
sion by the Canadian Government, who will
deny them thenceforth the privilege Of using
that ground as an asylum. The dread of
this will have SOLDERING effect upon these fu
gitiyes.
Canada has too much at stake to allow her
relations with our Government to be thus
jfopa,dized, and the to1id gentry generally
applaud the prompt course of the Governor
General in advlaing Lord Lyons Of tho ru-
uors atfoat, It is believed that the last has
been heard Of the scheme, the very airing Of
which has proved It's ruin. It is generally
conceded that even more than the usna1
amount OF exaggeration has betal1en the ru
nor,Ewhich Is thought to hare had very lin.
tied origin, If any, on Canadian soil.

suspected points On the north shore Of Lake
