Eo,ion excitement an Canada.

TORONTO, April 13.-Murphy and his assOcat e
are kept handcutfed and strongly guarded. Some
of our citizens advocate lynch;ng them. The
hostility against the prisoners is intense. The
Attorney General has ordered the Sheriff 20 per-
nit nobody but officers of the law and the cOun-
sci to see the prisoners.
On the night of the arrest the widest excite
ment prevailed in Cornwall and when the bugle
sounded the call to arms the volunteers to the
rendezvous, loading as they went. They double
quicked to the station, followed by an excited
populace. On arriving there. reports were cir
cuated that two companies of the 47th regiment
had revolted and taken possession of the town
in order to cut their way to Portland. Another
report stated that the Fenians had crossed at
0gdensburg and seized a train, and were advanc-
ing on Cornwall by steam. Three companies sur
rounded the train as a guard, and Murphy and
party surrendered without resistance. Much in
dignation is felt that ex-Attorney General Mac
donald should defend them. Two companies OF
infantry and a battery of artillery have been er-
dered to Cornwall, to prevent any attempt at
rescue.
Mr.. Speedy, mot Shea) the Secretary of the
Hibernian Society, was arraigned at the police
court yesterday morning. but no officer from Corn
wall having demanded him. he was discharged on
the original charge, and held on information OF
detective Spencer charging him with conspiring
with Murphy, and other traitors TO invade the
peace of the realm. The examination is to take
place on Saturday. An excited crowd Of sympa-
thizers has swarmed about the police court all
day. Speedy is confident of being acquitted. The
stipendiary magistrate of this district has been
ordered by the Government to conduct his trial
