rested at Cornwall yesterday turns out to be
person named Wheeler, an ex-Confederate
officer and now Lieutenant Colonel in the
Fenian army. On being searched, his com
mission was found upon hun and an au-
thority given by General Sweeny to recruit
a Fen an battalion in Canada. Several

The Excitement On the Border.
NEw YoRk, April 1.-THE following is
an extract from letter dated EastpOrt
Ne, April 10:
"COlonel Kerrigan, with two aids, arrived
here last Friday. The excitement then
commenced, and has continued to increase.
They spent Saturday in making arrange
ments at frontier Banks to draw funds from
Boston. On Sunday they seemed anxious
to obtain news by telegraph, but received
none. Monday they spent in endeavoring
to charter small vessels, and in calling at
stores, inquiring the price of five hundred
blouses, i've hundred caps, ETC., which
caused great excitement here. Among our
Provincial neighbors all business is sus-
pended. Productive labor is dormant. All
citizens are enrolled as soldiers and drilled
four hours daily, and the people are selling
off their stock of cattle, ETC., and moving
over to our side.
This morning one hundred or more
Fenians arrived in the boat from Portland.
The leaders, upon their arrival here, were
much displeased at the undue excitement
which mad been gotten up. They called a
secret meeting and are TO hold another to-
morrow. Our County Sheriff tells me they
think of going into some of our back towns
to await further developments"
Our Governments and the Fenians.
WAsHISGToS, April 1.-THE Government
is prepared to punish any infraetions of the
law committed by the Fenians, but sees no
cause for interference at present.

XXXIXth Congress
WAsHHGrox, April Il.

On motion Of Mr.. GARFIELD the read
ing of the Journal of yesterday was dis
pensed with.
Mr.. GARFIELD then proceeded to ad-
dress the House at length He said: | de-
sire to enter a motion that this House be
now adjourned. This day will be memoir
able as long as this nation shall endure.
which God grant may be till that last mo-
ment of recorded time, when the volume of
the worlds history shall be sealed up and
placed before the OmnipOtent Judge for his
sentence. On this day for all time to come,
doubt not, the citizens of this RepubIie
will meet together, looking into each others
face with sOlemness, as they recall the great
event of this day in 1895, an event un-
paralleled in the history of nations, GER
tainly unparalleled in our own. think il
eminently proper that this Congress should
put on its record to-day, a resolution in
memory of that event. The war with its
wonderful events which gave to history
many distinguished names, it took the
young men of the land and made them info
heroes-it made the old men patriots and
the women became ministering angels all
over the land, but chief among the great
developments of the war were the charac-
ter and life OF that great man whose loss
the nation still deplores. He is aptly des-
eribed IN the language of one of England's
great poets:
That divinely gifted man
Whose life in low estate began,
Upon simple village green.
Who breaks his births Invidious bar.
And grasps the skirts Of happy chance,
And breasts the blows Of circumstance ~
And grapples with his evil star:
Who makes by force his merit known,
And lives &c clutch the golden keys
To mould mighty States DEGREES,
And shape the whisper Of the throne;
And, running up from high to higher. -
Recomes on fortunes eroWning sloDe.
The pillar Of q peoples h pc,
The center Of = worlds desire .
Such life and such character will 90
down TO all time as a great sacred possession
Of the American people, but there is more
than the mere character of sny one man in
that great struggle through which we have
passed. There were two scenes in the drama
Of the rebellion One was the military
scene With ell its death, With all its suffer-
ings, siShs and tears. That sdeae was the
closing one year ago this night, Just as the
curtain was lifting on q new aad final
scene, the restoration of peace and order.
Just ss the curtain was rising to show the
new characters, the evil spirit Of the rebel
lion, and treason could adt resist its desire
to strike oBa hisw, and caas = the chief eEar
aeter in the scenes then eAsing to perish

and slavery, Concentrated n the fearful
hate that struck him down in that suprems
hour Of the nations joy. There are times

they seem to stand 50 closely BY the vel.

Professor Ellis New Sound Alphabet
An Edingbugh correspondent relstes
the following concerning the remarkable
pathological system invented by Professor
Ellis;
"A good number Of distinguished gen
tlemen assembled at the Society Of Arts a
few evenings ago to receive q statement
from Melville Bell, ESQ, of Edingburgh,
concerning an invention of which there
have been many vague newspaper state
ments afoat Mr.. Ellis, the philoloRist
took the chair. This invention consists of
thirty signs, by means Of which, and their
combinations, he is able to represent every
sonnd of which the human vpice is caps-
bic. This statement, incredible as 1t may
seem, was proved true after some severe
test applied by the company present.
The test was this: All of the gentlemen
present were invited to repeat sentences
in any language whatever to Mr. Bell.
There were sentences repeated from Ara
bic, Lyriac, Chinese, Sanscrit, Hottentot,
etc. These Mr.. Bell wrote down, though
many of the sounds were such as he could
not have heard before. Then his son, who
had been sent out Of the room was recalled,
and taking the paper from his father read
of every sentence that had been uttered
without-in the opinion Of the eminent
scholars who gave them filling infa single
accent. Mr.. Bell witholds bis alphabet
from the public, as be wishes it to be
brought before the world by learned
body. It Is difficult to estimate the i'm
portanee Of this discovery. 1t woald at

Collector for New York.
The House Committee on Judiciary are
engaged upon the subject of the resolution
recently referred to them involving the
question as to whether any additional leg
islation is necessary to procure the trial of
jeff Davis. No judicial proceedings will
be instituted pending the cOnsiderati on of
this matter by Congress.
The Supreme Court of the United States
having decided the Indiana military COM
mission for the trial of civilians to be lie
gal and persons convicted by it having in
consequence been discharged there is no
doubt steps will soon be taken to procure
the release of DR.. Mudd, Arnold, O'Laugh-
lin and Spangler, convicted of conspiracy
against the life of President Lincoln.

A National Telegraph Company.

= NosAoAaA AeAeBrapn company
The Washington correspondent Of the
Cincinnati Commercial thus shows I'D q
very Transparent swindIe as
A bill has been introduced in the Sen
ate to incorporate a national telegraph
company, whose lines shall extend over all
the post roads of the country, and be at
the service of the Government at rates
to be prescribed by the Postmaster Gen
eral. If this measure promised relief
from existing monOpolies it would be
hailed as great blessing to the country
at large. But unfortunately, it is one Of
the many lobby swindles, and perhaps the
largest Of all Of them, that are now pend
ing before Congress. The corporators are
men who have neither the means nor the
intention to carry out the enterprise they
pretend to have undertaken, and proba-
bly, the only result of the bill, if passed,
wonld be for them to receive q hand
some bonus for the privilege of being
swallowed up in the monopoly that now
controls the electric current from Maine
to California. The same parties who are
trying to get this scheme through are sin
terested in a bill to construct q telegraph
line from the United States to the West
Indies, and they couldn't, to save their
lives, raise money enough to-day TO build
a line from Cincinnati to COvington.
Many of them are Ohio men, A former
Mayor OF Cleveland heads the list, and
my opinion is, he might possibly find bet
ter employment than lobbying such swim
dies as these. r1
