There was quite an enthusiastic Fen-
an meeting at Manchester, N. H., on
Thursday evening, which was addressed
by Gen. John O'Neil, the President of
the Fenian Brotherhood and "hero of
Ridgeway." We copy from the Mirror
of that city:
He (Gen. O'NeiD spoke of the indy
ing love for the fatherland, of the seven
hundred years of fighting and protesting
against British tyranny, and declared
that they will fight till Ireland is free.
Spoke of the misrepresentation to
which their prospects are subject. If
he was not satisfied that their object
could be achieved he would neither risk
his own life nor ask others to do so D.; but
he believed the freedom of Ireland
worth the shedding of rivers of blood,
(checrs); believed if the army raised
before could have met the enemy face
to face the green flag of Ireland would
now be waving over Canada and even
Ireland referred to course of England
during the Rebellion. Believed if we
cannot get Mt England we should strike
where ever her bloody flag floats, and
recognized the right to tear down that
flag where ever it was flung to the
breeze.
At the close of the meeting volunteers
were called for to join the civil circle
and also the military circle. 1t was an
nounced that blow was certainly to be
struck, and that speedily. About twen-
ty-five announced their readiness to
join the Fenian army and nearly as
many more the civil circle.
Col. Healy, of Manchester, an officer
of our late war, and recently a prison
er of the ishGovernment in Ireland,
has been appointed by Gen. O'Neil Dis
trict Centre for the State of New Hamp-
shire.
The Huntington cleaner says, the
government, in view of possible Fenian
troubles in the locality has decided to
put the plank road leading to Port
Lewis, in good repair, and that planks
and tools for the purpose were arriving
at the latter place. The road is 81 miles
long.
The st. Johns NeiOs says:
The report is current that the Imperi-
al Government has addressed an encr-
getic remonstrance to the United States
Government. on the subject of the Feni-
an demonstrations which are permitted
to 90 on unchecked within the territory
of the American Republic. This is what
we think they should have done long
ago. 1t is pleasing now to know that
the y, S, government is acting on the
hint received.

There is very great complaint OF the
devastation of this insect this season.
There haye been hundreds of methods
for their determination proposed.
DIR. Fitch, Entomologist to the New
York State Agricultural Society says
there il 40 way of DISCRIMINATING them
except to dig them out one by one, and
to do this it is necessary to watch the
plants from day to day and when the
leaves begin to wilt to attack them Wig
orously and not leave them as long as a
maggot remains. The late Harry Dam
forth of Georgia used to relate his eX-
perience with them, and claimed to
have eflectually mastered them. He
said he fought them one season until
they were entirely masters of the situa-
ton, when he determined upon their
total aninhilation at all. hazards. Having
removed all the earth clean down to the
small roots he took his teakettle off the
stove aud treated them to boiling water
till every maggot was scalded To death,
/" And the onions toon? we asked,
"Welrr he said II do not really like to
tell the story, but the truth is not one
onion was permanently injured, though
: they looked little the worse for the
usage at trst " We have heard of the
use of boiling suds and although we dc
not doubt that either of tie remedies
would be efiectual we do not wish IL b.
understood rs recommending them eX
cept as the dernier resort.

THE CIRCUs.-Stone and Murray's cir

bans the 18th of next month, is without
doubt one of the very best that is travel
land on Friday, and the Herald says of
it:
The performances of the troupe con-
firm the great reputation the Circus has
earned as among the leading exhibitions
of America. All the acts were brilliant
and effective, and received much merit
ed applause Mile. Henrietta gave q
very dashing act of equestrianism, full
of graceful features. The Great John
Henry's feats on horseback excited the
admiration of all The Vermont favor
tie, lie .Ieune Rurte, is the mos daring
bareback rider we ever saw, and his
wonderful hOrsemanship fiirly electri-
fled the audience. Den Stone is a capt.
tai clown, and one OF the most enter
tanning and piquant wits Of the day,
while Nat. Austin deserves his title OF
'Merry Monarch of Clowns" being full
of exhuberant fun. Messrs. Stone ana
Austin possess a born aptitude for the
positions they occupy in the circus
Their witticisms are entirely Tree from
ali objectionable language, and create
merriment without causing modesty TO
blush. Prof. Hutchinson IS Acting Dogs,

laughter. In fact, the entire perform

attribute to UHOW Tribufe."

The Montreal Daily Uspays tribute
fairly and candidly to our institutions
in an excellent article, portion of which
we present to our readers. At the same
time it strives to make the lesson which
it presents of benefit to its own people.
1t says:
The phenomena which the material
growth of the Western States presents
is attributed to the fertility of the soil,
genial climate and facilities of access,
but it may be questioned whether Dem
ocratic institutions coupled with high
order of education, have not essentially
contributed TO a prosperity beyond eX-
ample. Iowa with less than million
population, boasts II reserved fund for
educational purposes of four and half
millions, besides school taxes. She has
erected an Agricultural College, at
cost of $50, 900 and $4,000 for professors
houses. One fourth of her population
attend school, and the teachers divide
annually 81 10000 for their services.
A new science of politics is needed for
new world, and its primary condition is
educating the democracy so that they
can adapt their Government to time
and place, and make it conform to the
occurrences and men of the times. Our
poverty may be pleaded partly as our
excuse, that we have not afforded our
people the facilities of education new
State like Iowa offers. We might have
copied the American idea with advan-
tage when surveying the Crown domain
and set apart a portion in each county
for educational objects. Great sacrifices
can be obtained from community
when their understandings and their
experience can be appealed to; but as a
preliminary condition, the understand
ings must be trained and cultivated, and
the people fitted to accept generous con-
ceptions. What especially signalizes
American society is the fearless energy
with which great enterprises arc under
taken, and the aptitude evinced in their
execution. These qualities must have
been originally engendered by a com
paratively high order of education, and
fortified by experience. We distrust
our recourses and capacityssif our Legis-
lature can be deemed a fair reflection
of public sentiment. We are not educa-
ted up to that point which inspires con-
fidence in ultimate remuneration. We
waste our energies in puerile efforts to
alter our destiny, and shrink from the
responsibility of national duties.

Mr.. Lindsey A bill to repeal the law
leasing out the Penitentiary. Passed first
reading, and referred to the Committee on
Penitentiary.
A resolution to adjourn on the I'd of
March to the 1st of December. Laid over
under the rules.
Mr.. Keith; A bill putting Tinker Dave

to the Committee on Military Affairs.
SENATE BILLS ON THIRD READING.
A bill for the release Of Q. C. DeGrove,
former Revenue Collector of Davidson,
from paying uncollected taxes on slaves in
1861.
Mr.. Nelson thought this was not the
place to apply for relief-he should apply
to the County Court for relief
Mr.. Lindsey defended the petition for
reliefb by saying that Mr.. DeGroye was one
of the few young men born in Nashville
who were true TO the Union, and was one
of the four hundred Union men who voted
against secession. He was driven from
here by the Vigilance Committee, and was
an exile from home, and could not get
back in time TO get the benefit Of the relief
provided in such cases. It was certainly a
meritorious case, and relief should be
granted. Passed.
House bill for the relief Of Tax Collectors
who had been forced to take Confederate
