THE FESIAN EXCITEMENT IN CANADA.
THE good people of Canada are very
much excited over the late mofements
of the Fenians in the United States,
They are really impressed with the be-
lief that their own soil is likely to be in
vadcd by mighty host who shall make
their welkin ring in land beyond the
water. The officials. it appears, have ta-
ken steps to prevent any sudden surprise
from the Fcnians, and have published to
the world at large their apprehosslons OF
the future. In the meantime, the broth
erhood are steadily and pcrscveringlS at
at work in New York and e'scwhcrr per-
4irctiag their arrangements What will
come of all this excitement will, doubt
less, develop.
Nashville at the commencement OF the
war had 2s,ooe inhabitants, it has now
over $4,000.

Hon. J. A. Briggs made the following
statement: =
4 have the following statement
from the Hon. M. Rice, OF Bangor
Maine, and the present representative
in Congress from that district. Mr.
Rice is the personal and political friend
Of Mr. Hamf,n. the late Vice Pres'.
dent:
On the 4th Of March Mr.. Hamlir
called in . carnage, at Kirkwood
House, Pennsylvania avenue, for Mr.
johnson, Vice President elect, and the,
rode together to the capitol. Mr.
johnson WAS perfectly sober. After he
went into the Vice Presidents room
Mr.. johnson said am, not fit to bt
here, and ought not to have left my
h,me, as I was slowly recovering from
an attack Of typhoid fever. But Nj
Lincoln wrote and telegraphed me, as
did othel friends, that must be here
and / came. | am now very weak
and enervated, and to day require all
the streg'h can get, and wish for
some spirits. NJ. Hamlin sent out for
bot le Of wh,~key, and Mr.. Johnson
drank portion. Mr. IIamlin then pu,
the bottle III the Secretary, and the two
remained seated for some inmates, when
a gentleman entered, and said it was
time to GO into the Senate Chamber.
Mr.. Johnson said again, I will take
some mo'e .f the whisky, as l need ali
the strength for this occasion that
can have. They then went into the
Senate Chamber, an III his weak and
feeble condition Of health the whisky
produced the effect described upon
Mr.. Johnson aud Mr. Namlin said
Perhaps am the responsible one in
the natter Andrew Johnson is no,
an incorporate man. He is sober
and in his right miri, anG is the righ,
man in tie right place, and may God
keep L.m and preserve him"

Lincoin,s Death :

Why? why o God this sorrow sent?
THIS grief that Ellis the continent
Why droops our noble flag to day7
All hearts feel sadness and dismay.
Fo. he who held with faithful hand.
The welfare Of this mighty land.
Rests now in deathly heavy sleep,
While gloom prevails and millions weep
A grief no human tongue can tell,
As if Gods fearful judgement fell,
From NJ the midnight ky had hurled,
His wrath upon sleeping world. "
We tremble that this act OF crime,
Should stain the annals of our time,
That one should live whose guilty hand,
Could smite the savior Of our land.
How sudden fell the c,uel blow,
That laid onr noble leader low,
Onr hearts were full of blissful cheer,
We saw the dawn ofpeace draw near.
We prased that he whose faithful hand,
Had toiled to save this tre.born land,
Might live to bear the honors won,
From duty well and noble done.
