The COMING MUNICIPAL ELEcroN.-The poli-
ticians and pseudo reformers Of this city have
managedto work the affairs connected with our
approaching charter election into such muddle
that II is impossible to look for anything else
but the worst Of results. Singularly enough,
the records Of the past show that the very
worst men have always been elected to Office

Of reform. We could point 10 numerous in

The CANADIANS, THE FENIANs AND THE
CHEvAIIER RAYMoND.-The Canadians are in
a dreadful pother about the Fenians. They
prepared themselves to meet the followers of
the Sunburst the other night, but the Fenians
did not come. The Canadians cannot under
stand this. They knew that the Fenians had a
gunboat on the lakes and plenty Of arms and
ammunition on hand, and plenty Of men every
where, and yet O'Mahony and his army did not
make their appearance at the time appointed.
The correspondence between President O'Maho-
ny and the Chevalier Raymond which we pub
lished yesterday will explain all this. The Chew
alier Raymond, coming to the assistance Of the
Canadians, made flank movement upon the Fe-
mans and threatened to cut Off their supplies,
destroy their base of operations and throw
both their centre and "Head Centre" into con-
fusion. O'Mahony was therefore obliged TO
turn his attention to the hero Of Solferino and
Bull run, of the phantom Austrian hussars and of
the imaginary Black Horse cavalry, Of General
Scott's dinner table and McClelans Peninsular
campaign. The Fenians will have to conquer
Raymond, who is as full Of fight as . game
chicken, before they can leave their base
secure and start Of upon an expedition into
the enemy's country. The Canadians have to
thank the gallant Chevalier for their lucky
escape; for If he had not made his flank move
ment the Fenians would have captured Toronto
and Montreal, and boon half way to Quebec by
this time. When the quadrilateral strategist Of
the Mincio is vanquished then wo to the Blue
Noses.
