and New Orleans. Col. MARYLAND is empowered
to make new contracts. to divide the service from

advantageOusly, and TO appoint loyal men, who

bic.

Gen. HancOck's Examining Board on breech-

Yesterday they examined one invented by Col.

fires thirty-two rounds per minute, or one hun

and which is pronounced by the board to be the
most rapid firing ever achieved.
1t is understood that the Government has sent
one or two armed vessels to the fishing grounds
on the coast of the British Provinces, to protect
our fishermen, who have been warned off by the
Provincials since the cessation of the reciprocity
treaty. The British Government has expressed a
willingness to allow everything to go on on the
basis of the conventional 1915 or on the basis ex
isting prior to the existence of the reciprocity
treaty which enables our vessels to fish anywhere
within amarine league of the shore.

NEw YORK, April 9.-The gold market fell of
this afternoon to l25 y and rallied again to 1857
at the close. The stock market became alarmed
ut the cholera reports from Halifax and there
was general decline of prices at the second reg
ular and last open Boards. The falling off on
leading speculative shares was equal to 294 =
cent
The market for petroleum and mining shares
were heavy this afternoon. There was a marked
decline in prices after the call. Bennehoff was
run down to LIS and the whole market was de-

mand explanation from Mr.. McCulloeh The
people have a right TO know why and on what
terms the Treasury bought up $l,5OO0OO 1910
bonds, X2,WOOO compound interest notes and
Si.U5Ooo OF the 80 loan before maturity; also,
why and on what terms it issued 81 $50 500 of go
bonds and xlO22.550 of the 6s of 1861. 1t is evil
dent that there was an exchange Of l0-40s, 1905
and compound notes for per cent. bonds. and
the Transaction was a private one.
The Commercial says the week opens with de-
cidedly easier aspect in money affairs. There is
more money offering to private bankers. but mod
crate demand for loans from brokers' On call the
rate is + per cent. but many decline to pay that.
and the tendency strongly favOrs n per cent

is perceptible increase in the supply of produce

There is q greater buoyaney in the market,
and prices yesterday were stiff, with anticipations
on the part Of some of our merchants Of an ad-
vance. But there has been no material varia-
ton since our last detailed report. We present
the latest news from New York, which is of last
Monday, the 9Th inst, as follows.
There is no important change in prices to-day.
The market Is very much more quiet with little
doing. Wooden goods fat, with very few transac-
actions. Some desirable styles of French and
British goods sell well at remunerative rates but
most foreign goods are very slow and quiet. Buy
ers are taking goods in very small lOts-simply
what they need for immediate use.

From CannfIn

TORONTO. April 10.-The excitement here is
very great this afternoon, owing to n general
search of suspected premises. The only contra
band of war found were four revolvers in Shea
house, and rusty musket and two bayonets in
Murphy's. Shea is the only arrest made in the
city. His arrest caused by an intercepted
telegram, cautiOning him to look out for himself.
and destroy a certain box, which diligent search
did not discover. The Government on Sunday
received information that about seventy Cana
dians had left for Portland. all armed.
The authorities now believe that there was no
raid in New Brunswick intended. and that the
Portland dispatches detailing the departure Of
the Fenians was dictated by O'Man0ny. and that
their reported departure was merely TO give color
to the belief that New Brunswick was the point
aimed at, or that under cover of this movement
Sweeney or OMahony would make desperate
raid upon Canada, probably, with the Chicago
gunboats, and land his forces. An attack is daily
looked for.
The Cornwall prisoners have retained sx-At-
tOrney General Mcdonald to defend them, and
their preliminary examination comes off tonight
or tomorrow morning. Shea is still under guard
and will probably be examined
