THE FENIANs. The following special despatcl
to the n Y. Tribune speaks for itself:
EAsrpoRT, Me-, Thursday, April l9.--Ther
is no border war and has been mons. N
fights occurred at Calais, nor did the Fenians CAP
/ tire all English flag. There is no excitsment o.
this side the boundary. The presence of a fey
Fenians organizing circles, coupled with prosir
clal confederation schemes, is the foundation fo
the sensation; and the special dispatches ser
to some of the New York papers have been viiar
ously false, and they have draw hither man
strangers, who came to join in the strife. Gel
Meade, who arrived this morning, will othelali
explode the bubble.

The KENTUCKY LoTTERY.-There are always
some people-a great many indeed-who feel dis
posed to " trust to look and one of the ways of
trusting it, is in now and then buying lottery
ticket. An investment of this sort always is at.
tended with several days of pleasing anticipation.
The mind of the owner of lottery ticket naturally
builds castles in the air, while the winning of the
prize would enable him to build in reality. One
sees himself the possessor of thousands, and his
dreams are geld tinted. We of course do not advo-
cate squandering PERSONS whole substance upon
mere hope; but after all, hope is one of the only
real pleasures we have. The lottery of the State
of Kentucky is managed by commissioners ap-
pointed by the government, and all the prizes are
fairly and squarely distributed. Mr.. Charles 7.
Howard, the agent for this city, is the licensed
lottery-tcket dealer of New Orleans, according to
the law passed by, the last session Of the legis-
lature, and as he is entirely responsible, persons
drawing prizes by the Kentucky lottery can rest
assured of prompt settlement in full. AS this is
the only lottery drawn in the Union, the list Of
drawings are published all over the country, and
owners of tickets will find them in every city il
the United States, and agents also3to cash tickets
which draw prizes. i -

SIR Your letter of May 10Th rela-
tive to the addition of the ten per cent.
