From Montreal.

New YORK, August 3l.-The Herald's
Montreal special of the 30th, says that
q picnic is advertised to be held or
Tuesday, for the benefit of Whelan and
other prisoners, at Ottawa. A procla-
nation was posted last night calling all
loyal citizens to Neisler, on Tuesday
and prevent this Fenian display. b
Dierlen, leading Irishman of this city
who opposed MCGEE last year, and who
has hitherto enjoyed the reputation Of
being Fenian sympathizer, has writ
ten long letter which denounces the
picnic as uncalled for, and tending to
cast an imputation on Irishmen. He
says it would be telegraphed over the
world, and materially strengthen the
Fenian cause now preparing TO attack
Canada. He implores Irishmen to dis
countenance the affair, which makes in
tense excitement. A riot is feared, as
the authorities will put down the picnic
if possible, and suppress the legal de-
monstration. The Fcnian sympatizers
are disguised, and denouace Dieclen as
a traitor, but public opinion is strongly
in his favor.

legal existence OF our new State.
