1t is reliably ascertained that the propeller
Georgisns has been purchased by the rebels
in Toronto, and is being strengthened and fit
ted somewhere on the Canada shore, for the
purpose Of sinking the steamer Michigan and
for piratical excursions generally on this coast.
She was ostensibly purchased by a houte in
Toronto for the lumber trade.
She came to Buffalo here on the ID inst. to
have some part of her machinery repaired,
but left soon after. She was without any de-
scription of freight. We are prepared for
her here
A letter received this morning from a
friendly Canadian, dated az Drummondsvillo.
near Niagara. gives the particulars Of de-
signed raid on Buffalo, which only failed he
says, through the promptitude Of our aushori-
ties.
Two rebel officers named Mock and Dinnie
had charge Of the affairs. All the arrange
ments were completed. They bad one hun
dred men in Buffalo who had been coming in
for week previous, and were scattered about
the city in different boarding places.
AT signal, these men by means Of Greek
fire, were to fire the city Though the plan
has failed, it is not entirely abandoned. They
swear they will yet destroy Buffalo.
SUSPENSION BRlDeE, Nov. 4.
There is much excitement on the American
side, at an anticipated raid The citizens are
arming. Goods aud valuables are being re-
moved. A special train with troops is ex-
pected tonight.
BUFFALo, Nov. 6.
The following is an extract from letter re-
ceived to-day, by the editor of the Express,
from DuIvilIe, G. w, dated Nov 5
Look out for a raid on Buffalo, from Tor

OBiaI

Mayor Gunther of New York has replied
to Secretary Seward s warning as to rebel in
cendaries, that he has no fears Of any such
attempts, but shall take all precautionary
measures and invoke federal aid if it is need
ed. Mayor Gunther has ALEC issued procla-
nation enjoining on the police and special
aids Of the sheriffs due vigilance in enforcing
the regul tions regulating voting, and warn
ing the citizens not to allow themselves to be
drawn into controversies or gather in crowds
in the vicinity of the POLLS but deposit their
votes and retire Immediately Cen Dix has
issued a second order s5fth arrest of rebels,
deserters, or those who ave fed from the
United States to escape the draft and shall
come back and attempt to vote. He says no
military force will be embodied at or in the
vicinity OF the polls, and there must be no
interference Of the military in any manner
with the right Of suffrage; but the soldiers
are to aid the civil authorities in keeping the
peace if called upon to do so. Gen Hooker
has issued similar orders for the Northern
Department, and Gen. Couch for the Depart
ment of the Susquehanna. With the State,
local and army authorities all cooperating to
keep the peace and insure free ballot, it
ought TO be a sure thing.

Patriotism.

Is PATRIOTISM mere name? A vague no
ton, which the smart of oppression alone makes
a reality? Was Leonidas, who died for it, an
enthusiast? Is our admiration of Roman vir-
tue dream? supplemented man, who, from
limited experience, looks out upon the in
trigues of politicians, their pliancy, their low
fellowships, their observation-disclosures, their false
hoods, might well doubt. Yet the love of our
country hath reason in it; it belongs to human
ity and cannot be severed from it. 1t has q
virtue too. 1t warns the blood strengthens our
best purposes, adds to sense of personal Dig
nifty. Our country is larger home Our
fellow citizens are our knsfolk. Our words are
the same-is not our heart one? Therefore, we
love country. But to love deeply, the heart
Graves always somewhat outward and visible to
come to it symbol of the idea it loves. The
oak which shaded our boyhood, the fountain
which moistened parched lips, when the
days sport had wearied u.s. as they are abiding
memorials of our home, will not suffer our love
of that home to perish decay. Our country
gives us few memorials of itself, and has no Wis
IDLE form. Our constitution is that oak, not
'gnarled,' but unwedgeable.' That fountain of
plenteous prosperity is our union, from which
regard them so, and men seldom love abstrac-
tions and the wise may well fear, lest in a
country so vast as ours, and under government
simple in it's FORMS a shOrt-sighted selfishness
may come to govern the mass of our people, and
a worse and meaner selfishness it's more active
spirits.
