Yesterday was the time fixed for the ris-
ing of the Fenians in Canada.

There seems to be trouble brewing be-
tween the Colonists. of Cordova, Mexico,
and the Indians, who originally owned
the land.
A Fenian representative recently visited

Maximilian is said to be a little short
just now, and his affectionate spouse re-
fuses to divide her pin money with him.
Broker packages. are required to be in
spected by custom house officer at Ja-
maica, before the drawbacks will be al
lowed on their expectation.
The Fenians were to move along the
whole line on Thursday night, but, the
wholesale arrest of officers cast q danper
over their spirits, and it is thought all will
return home. The men are very destitute,
and are beginning to see how they have
been imposed upon by their leaders.
A Montreal dispatch says all the inhab-
itants of the border are leaving with their
movables for the United States, for pro-

IL is said that Government has given no
consideration to the subject of bailing or
paroling JEFF. Davis since his trial was
postponed.
a. general arrest of .Fenian leaders has
been made on the frontier, including Gen.
Hefferman, who was about to put the
grand army of liberation in motion as the
writ was served on him. There was some
excitement and great many threats
among the men, but the tumult was soon
quieted.

Our afternoon dispatches of yesterday
lead us to the conclusion that the Fenians
have now moved, into Canada and have
encamped a few miles across the border.
Gen. Spear had, by some strange fatality,
got drunk. Some Of the men had fellowed
his example, while others were greatly dis
pirited, having but little to eat, and poor
hopes of better rations. f.4eg no t,l serni =
The Fenians are moving in all possible
directions on the border, and it is impos-
sible to imagine their immediate purpose.

is said, will report adversely on the House
