II stories which are obtaining wide currency
here are 20 be believed, there = at last real dan
ger be apprehended OF Intervention IN our af-
fairs by England and Franoe. IL is known here,
and is said to have been known in the state
department for several days, that England has
been quietly organizing large force Of men, to
be held in readiness for some important duty.
An order. moreover. is known to have been Is
sued. peremp;orily refusing leaves of absence to
the officers of several Of the best regiments of
the English army. and the recent marvellous
promptness Of the Canadian authorities in raising
. men, even at the EXPENSE of enforced draft,
under the pTeteIt OF an apprehended invasion by
the Fenians, Is thought TO point clearly to the
fact that they had been instructed to seize the
first opportunity Of organizing all available forces
for any emergency.
The recent notice OF the abrogation of the re
ciprocity treaty aud the evident determination OF
the government to push work with all possible
haste upon the gunboats intended for service 10
the northern lakes is also noticed by those who
are now watching the signs of the times with in
tense interest.
Additional excitement has been awakened By
the important leading editorials in The Richmond

Louis Napoleon, and to have been put FORWARD
to prepare the minds Of the southern people TO

That the south is now harder pushed then a
any previous time during the war cannot be de
MED. and the unwillingness of England ant

will be in effect follows Notice will be given
after the Alb Of March, that England and Franc

which is tantamount 10 recognition of confed
