BUFFALO, june 2-9:25 A. M.-The
latest news from the Fenian camps
states that the whole Fenian force
were moving. It is stated that the
bridges across Frenchman's Greek

trying to reach the Canadian shore.

the people of Canada is now in the
hands of gentleman of this city, and
was expected to have been issued
yesterday if affairs had warranted.
The Canadian accounts represent
that the Fenians will find themselves
very much disappointed in expected

night the forces at Fort Colborne
were augmented by the arrival of the
Toronto University Company.
Early this morning troops took the
train to Ridgeway They are under
command of Col Barker, Col Dennis
having gone on an expedition down
the river three miles from Ridgeway
Station. The Fenians were found en-
camped in bush column. The troops
attacked them, the First Queens
Own firing the first shot. The fight
now became general, the volunteers
driving the Fenians. Numbers were
killed on both sides. The volunteers
behaved splendidly, running after the
retreating Fenians with the utmost
gallantry. 1t is thought the volun-
teers will at least hold their own till
the arrival of the British regulars,
and artillery.

ALBANY, N. Y, June "A dis
patch from Lockport this evening,
says about 200 Fenians left there last
night from the West. The people of
Lockport are driving to the frontier
tonight, in anticipation of witnessing
a battle between body of Fenians and
British troops, reported to be 1900
strong. The Fenians here are very
active and have been engaged to-day
in raising money to forward men.
Another detachment leaves at mid
night for the scene of war, Ifthe
leaders had funds, they say they could
send 1,000 men forward in twenty four
hours. Prominent Fenians here say
they anticipate stirring news to-mor-
row, but decline to even intimate from
what quarter it may be expected.

Acrowded and delighted audience listened
last night to the second rendition of " The
Doctor of Alcantara," by accompany of an
GteNrs made up of well-known Cleveland
vocslists. The whole programme went of
smoothly and with eelat-much more 80, if
such a thing be possible, than on occasion Of
its first performance, owing to the conf
denee acquired by the debutants and debw-
tantes of Tuesday evening. Ii was from be-
ginning to end a complete and triumphant
success, and our citizens have reason to be
grateful to Messrs Underner and Finn for
the pains which they have expended to give
them this bJog of melody.
We need not comment in detail upon the
singing and acting of the young artists
who made their second appearance last
evening. Suffice it to say that they scquit-
ted themselves with even greater credit
than on their first appearance, and that the
frequent and enthusiastic applause of the
listeners testified more eloquently than
words to their triumphant success.
The opera will be repeated at the same
place next Tuesday evening.

hate the wrong and love the right with an
equal cordially. George Thompson has
been intimately connected with all the re-
formsofthe age. Not only in Europe has
the power Of his earnest appeals for the
right been felt and acknowledged, but in
the dark days of ~ahti-siatsry effort in
America did his CHEEKY voice ring out across
the water, encouraging by sublime utter
anees and t%rtstihg faith IN God and the
right. Born and reared in Liverpool, of pie
bian origin, and spending his youthful
years in the humble occupation of a
clerk and copyist. he entered the arena
of anti-slavery agitation and discussion at
the early age of eighteen, and from that
time until the present, with the exception
of the last two years, HIS life has been a con-
slant struggle with hoary and fegalized
wrong, Commencing life thus humblyin
the pro. slavery city Of Liverpool, at that
time the seat and centre of the British in
terest in the lave trade, he, by-his own
ability and fearlessness in the advocacy of
the right and denunciation Of the wrong,
won his way to a reat IN Parliament despite
the opposition of the titled and huoneyed
classes and the patronage Of the GOVERN
ment. Mr.. Thompson paid a high comPli-
ment to his bosom friend and oo-1aborer in
America, William Lloyd Garrison, for whose
statue he declared no marble was pure
enorgh. It is remarkable that two such
radical reformers as Garrison and Thomp-
! son, pioneers in the cause Of humanity,
standing almost singly and alone at the
outset, contsnding against such vast odds in
the way of wealth, influence and power,
should live to see the contamination of all
theirdesires In the overthrow of gigantic
evils centuries old, and which seemed 70
have become a part OF society itself. Suck
a triumph is well nigh miraculous, and en-
titles these heroic champions, and their CO.
laborers in the cause Ofright, to the graft
tude Of all friends of humanity and progress.
