There can be little doubt from dispatches received here
that the Fenians attempted to evacuate Fort Erie last
night and that the steamer Michigan captured 700 while
about $50 escaped to the American sde and nearly all the
rest were captured by the British forces.

The 10th Battalion volunteers were TO go to the 'front.'
This will make about $50 beside the force gathered

As far az We can make out from the many conflicting

real point OF attack.
There is no TO believe that Of the invaders

Fort Erie was evacuated little after a. m. About that
time signals made from the camp in the ruins Of the
Fort and two powerful tugs steamed out Of Buffalo
Creek crossed Fort Erie and the Fenians commenced
the evacuation OF Canada Within bali an hour the entire
body Of troops the camp proper returned TO the Amen
can shore Not only this but so rapid was the concep
ton and execution of the plan of that notice
given to the picket lines extending along the bank OF
the river.
About 800 men are reported TO have reached Buffalo on
board the tugs Some forty more, constituting the
picket guards along the ver escaped IN the smaller boats

ards fine dogs are certainly very know
ing animals, and their performances are
as amusing, as they are astonishing.
There was a good attendance last night
to witness their dramatic efforts, and
the audience seemed highly amused and
delighted. Although neither Carlo nor
Nero can pretend to the capacity or fine
tragic powers displayed by u rem
owned Shakesperean dog Juno, who is
the great wonder of the age-the only
veritable dog star this side of Syrius I;
but Juno has retired from the stage now,
and is enjoying the sweets of private
life. We have no desire to criticise
either Nero or Carlo to closely, but we
think their elocution might be i'm
proved lin some parts their speaking
was unintelligible, and they failed to
convey the real idea of the author, but
still their representation was a decided
Improvement on t~wo-legged acting in
many respects. 1t had the virtue of
being natural and unaffected. The
drama in which the dogs perform such
wonders is a very interesting story
and taking the performance altogether,
1t was a quite acceptable entertainment,
and will serve to enliven our dull even
ings. At the fall of the curtain, the
dogs were called out and bOW-ed their
