@ The Fenian trials in the Cana
dian courts still continue. Both the
people and the authorities in Canada
seem determined to give them the
full extent OF the law which they vi
olated by their late invasion of the
Provinces. Several have been tried,
found guilty and sentenced to be
hanged. The trials of others have
been continued to give opportunity
to secure the attendance of import
ant witnesses from this side Of the
line. The Fenian circles in this coun-
try are greatly excited over the re-
suit of these trials. and threaten re-
venge and retaliation, if the Cana
dians dare execute the sentence of
the law upon their convicted friends.

Rebel Wants.

A certain rebel newspaper thus
nodestly expresses the "wanti'' Of the
South:
1st. We want tho military re-
moved. I'd. We want the Freed
mans Bureau abolished. 81. We
want to be allowed to elect men to
Office who will represent the wishes
of 3 majority of the people. 4th.
We want these officers when elected
to exercise the functions Of their re-
spective offices without interference
from the central Government, 5th.
We want general amnesty; aad 9th.
We want the protective tariff abol-
ished.
Is there no. something else that
our Southern friends would like to
have5 Would they not like to have
the rebel war debt assumed BY the
general G ent, and their wsrth-
less bonds and paper placed on par
with "Five-twenties" and "green
backs5" Would they not like to have
compensation for their slave proper
ty, made free by the Presidents pro
clamation and the Constitutional
Amendment? Would they not like
to have "gray. backs" placed upon
an equality with the brave "boys In
blue" and the country taxed IS pen
sion rebel soldiers who wer .iss-
bled in their reasonable eff2its TO

they not like to have Congress Jap
propriate money for the erectidh o.

Would they not like to have Ben.
Better and Thsd. Stevens hanged to
appease the blood of their fallen
Southern chivalry? Would they not
like to have the radicals elected from
Congress, and their places supplied
with a real genuine Constitutional
Congress, composed of Southerr
rebels and Northern Copperheads;
Would they not like TO have JEFF.
Davis declared President of these
United States? Don't be too modest,
gentlemen; step forward and an
nounce all your "wants." You will
find Northern dough-faces enough
to back up your demands. Again we
say, don't be too modest.

10000 under Gen. Grant or some
ether officer OF high rank and repu
tation. clothed with power to aid the
government Of our Sister Republic
in the restoration OF erdsr and secu-
rity. 1t is supposed by many that
the above report is circulated by the
holders of Mexican bonds for pur-
poses of speculation. If there is
truthin these rumors, we are strong
ly inclined to doubt the policy OF
wisdom of the course foreshadowed
by them. Our true policy is the de-
velopment of our resources at home,
peace with all nations and interyen-
ton in the affairs Of none. Mexican
Intervention has prsved g very un
satisfactory and costly experiment
to the French,-it may prove 80 to
Us. Besides in view OF the heavy
national debt and the exhaustion OF
our resources, resulting from thelat
rebellion, it would seem to be very
questionable policy for our govern
,ment to incur the large expenses
which such an expedition to Mexico
would necessarily entail npon u.s.
Therefore, while wishing the Liberal
cause all success, and while willing
and ready to give them all the moral
support and aid in our power, we are
of the opinion that the time has not
yet come for active Intervention on
our part in Mexican affairs.

What Shall we DO with our Hoop
Skirts,

Miss Phoeba Parsons, if you will
do rs tell you. you can get rid Of
your hoops. Next summer, after
your father has made his garden,
you so and plant some tomato seed;
stick down stake and put your hoop
skirt over il; draw it to the top and
tie it to the stake; when the vines
grow, train them IN and out through
the hoops; the fruit will hang through
and make q beautiful ornament. l
also tie up my evergreen trees with
them, l put one round dahlia bush
to-day; they make a good strong
fastning for any bush or tree. l
also take one small hoop, hook it to-
gother and sew cloth over it; it
makes q nice strainer for a grease
crock. I think old hoops a great
thing about the house. have kept
house twenty years. and I have no
skeleton in it yet, because l keep
them out doors. 1t is a mistake
Miss, that every house must have a
skeleton in 1t. I know Mr.. Editor
that you have no skeleton nm your
