THE WEEKLY DAY BOOK.

We respectfully cali the attention of our mer-
chants, business men, and advertisers, general
~, TO the superior advantages afforded them for
country advertising through the columns of the
WEEKLY DAY Book. This paper, prior to the
breaking out of the late war, was admitted gen.
orally TO be the best advertising medium for the
country trade ever established in this section
II had circulation of six or seven thousand
weekly, to its regular mail subscribers, besides
frequent large editions for gratuitous circula-
ton IN the cars, steamers, carts, vessels &C.
II Is printed at the small price of ONE DoLLAR A
YEAR, and gotten up with great deal of care
and attention, having carefully corrected price
current of the weeks transactions, together with
. the latest telegraph news editorials, selections,
&C., to make it desirable companion to the
farmers family. The advertisements will be
displayed to the taste of the advertiser, in the
largest type his space will admit of with the
privilege OF inserting cuts of any kind in their
advertisements.
Having our mail books ready, we are now
making arrangements for the speedy issue of this
splendid country advertiser; and we invite our
merchants and business men to hand in their adj
xerusements at once, that they may be put il
type for the first number. Much of the space
mas already been engaged, and as the WEEKLY
Will have great deal of reading matter in it,
those who desire to benefit by its circulation
should give the matter their immediate atten-
ton. 1tT-yHs TT
We have placed the terms for advertising in
the WEEKLY DAY Book at low figures, so that
our enterprising Merchants may use liberal
share Of space for display purposes.
One column, yearly contract, $40 per month,

square, for the first insertion, and so cents a
square for each continuance on
Liberal terms will be made to those contract

WINES AND LIQUORS.

CALIFoRNI WINES
IN I'll E v e RY GENERAL INTRO
duCtiOn of our brands of these fine Wines
into the Eastern and Middle States, is lattering
tribute to their fine qualities, and decided indi-
cation of the desire of the people to encourage
American Industry.
Our "HOCK" is very similar to the Rhine
Wines of Germany, but is more generous and
rich wine; and will commend itself to all lovers
of that class of wines.
The "ANGELICA" and "MUSCATEL" are
both naturally sweet wines, particularly adapted
to party dessert use, or the sick chamber. They
are the finest wines of their class in America The
"PORT" is very similar to the Lisbon Wines, and
is much admired for its richness and delicacy and
fine favor.

Are well known by the travelling public. The
Steamers are all new, constructed with great re.

manded by experienced, courteous, and attentive
officers. Their superior speed enables them to
make sure connections with all trains, thereby
causing delay to travellers at either end of the
route.
The Fare has been reduced by the general 80

feel grateful for their very liberal patronage,

From Canada.

ToRoNTo, March 23.-The excitement
has qnieted down here, though no relaxa-
ton is apparent in the preparations for
defence.
There was almost a panic in Montreal,
last night, over the report that $4,000 Fe-
mans were moving Oh Isle Aux Noix.
A volunteer from Brockville has been
sent to Montreal for admitting himself a
Fenian.
According to Michael Murphy, the sup
posed Canadian Head Centre, $4,000 Of
Fenian bonds have been taken up in Ca
NADIA.
Though week has now passed since
the alarm was sounded, and nothing has
transpired to justify it, the citizens of OF
tawa are still so nervous that night patrols
and countersigns are still in force The
left wing of the Canadian army, on the st.
Lawrence border, still exhibits great ac-
tivit;, and fresh troops are constantly ar
irving. The military authorities threaten
that if the Fenians attempt to cross at
Ogdensburg, they will fire on that city with
the guns Of Fort Wellington, at Prescott,
opposite.

AN UNFORTUNATE AMER1cAN.-The
necessity of having some sort of di
plomatlc relations established be-
tween this Government and the
Mexican Empire has just been exem-
pllted by the seizure of the American
steamer Wilson Crawford, the cap
tain of which-Mr. Stevens
now no redress, and has lost his car
go and his vessel On arriving at
Llsal, he was astonished by seeing
an imperial guard march on board,
and take possession of the vessel, on
the ground that the schooner had
1000 pounds of powder on board.
The captain explained what it was
intended for, and even had affidavits
forwarded from New York to confirm
his statements, but nevertheless his
vessel was sold, the proceeds went to
the Imperial Government, and the
poor Yankee captain was sentenced
to ten years Imprisonment. Luckily.
he received g pardon from the EN-
press, and then escaped-minus his
vessel, of course-to this country.
