THE FENIANs.-TheM Montreal NeaUs
of Monday morning says:
We have the best reasons for stating,
as the result of cal eful enquiries along
the frontier line, that there need not be
the slightest apprehension of q Fenian
movement this summer. The recent
kilograms from st. Adams and Buffalo,
published in the Opposition Globe and
in the Conservative GU Gazette, are
proved to have been utterly baseless,
and although the military authorities
are fully prepared and will continue on
the qui viUe for some time to come, they
are very decided in their opinion that
there will be no attempt at Il raid.
The following despatch from Both
well appears in the Neaos of the same
date:
We have just learned that party of
volunteers belonging to Wardsville, On
tario, on their way home from drill,
were attacked last night by a party of
men, supposed to be Fenians. The vol
unteers were very badly beaten, and one
of them is not expected to live. An at
tempt was made, later in the night, to
break open the drill shed and get the
arms belonging to the volunteer COM
pany. The inhabitants are in search of
the villains.

press and will publish in II few days,
"Thc Life of Hon. Schuyler ColfaX,'
written by Rev. \. Y. Moore Of South
Bend, Indiana, who was twelve years,
as pastor and friend, in The entire con-
fidcnce Of Mr.. ColfaX, and had access TO
the files of the paper published by Mir.
ColfaX for twenty years, and to the Con-
grcssional Globe knows all his past
history and all who have known him
from boyhood. He began this biography
two or three years ago. so that it is not
one of the hurried and ephemcral publi-
cations SO common in election years.
Mr.. Moore is a gentleman of fine talent
and culture, and there is no doubt but
that his biography of Mr.. CofaX viii I've
worthy of its distinguished subject.
The following letter from Mr.. CofaX,
to Rev. \. y. Moore will explain it.

MY Dear Mr.. Moore:-
AS your prediction of year ago has
been realized, | have no further objcc-
ton to your publishing any sketch
more or less full, OF my life, you may
have prepared. AS YOU were for Il dozen
years a fellow-townsman of mine, and a
valued friend, | suppose you know Us
much about my history as the public
would care about knowing and al
though my engrossing duties here leave
me no time to'reViee the manuscript, |
have no fear that your work will not be
faithful one.
Yours, very truly

CUSTOM MATTERS ON THE From
TIER.-Under this head the Rutland
Herdld speaks of the custom house here
and its management as follows:
Moses F. Chase, Esq, of St. Adams,
who has the management of the Gus
tom House at that place, one of the most
important, by the way, on the whole
frontier, is 4 diligent and thorough Off
Ger. His efforts for several years have
been under Gen. STANDARDS instructions,
to prevent all smuggling, large and
small, by which in the aggregate the
government has been heretofore defraud-
ed out of an immense amount of reve-
nue..
The Herald then notes the case of the
three German Jews arrested and held
for trial here a few days ago, for being
engaged, as it appeared, in a systematic
effort to smuggle silks, and adds:
We would not give due prominence
to this series of trials for what are COM
monty treated as venial offenses, nor to
the diligence and uncOmpromising spirit
which brooks no tampering with the
revenue laws. We allude to the matter
simply to commend the whole proceed
ing, and suggest that the press sustain,
thoroughly and systematically. all eff
forts made by the customs officers and
u. 5. Commissioners to compel all per-
sons, Jews and Gentiles to obey the
existing laws, which are Wholesome and
necessary for the protection of our COM
merce, and to enable the government to
be carried on without GENEROUSLY taxing
the laboring and agricultural classes.
All, without distinction, are interested
in compelling a proper respect to the
laws, everyone.f fulfilling the duty which
the government has necessarily imposed
upon its citizens.

THE Democratic victory in Connecti-
cut, over which the Register. brought
out its anttquated rooster, is a barren
one. The official returns show that
English, the Democratic candidate for
Governor, is reelected by majority
of 1871. Last year his majority was
9s7. The exact Democratic gain is,
therefore, 79i-not much OF a shower
after all. This gain is more than COM
pensated for by the victory which the
Republicans achieved in the Legisla-
ture. Both branches are largely Re-
publican. This secures a Republican
Senator as successor to MIR. Dixon,
whose term expires next March. This
is a substantial result which the Re,
publicans can afford to be satisfied
with. II shows Furthermore, that Con.
necticut is not in fact Democratic
State in the COrperhead sense, al.
though she elects Democratic Gov,
ernor. Gov. English is a man of greal
personal popularity, a war Democrat
man who as n member of Congress
supported the war policy of the Gov.
eminent, and who besides, in this con,
test, had the Federal and State patron,
ago at his command. Considering
these things, and considering how neal
the city of New York is to Connecticut
his election is not at all wonderful
Next fall when New York voters ar,
needed at home, Connecticut will g,
Republican.

TIE Senate sit again to-day as a
Court for the trial Of the Impeachment
of the President, and the proceedings
will commence with the opening argu-
ment for the defence by Judge Curtis;
after which the defence Will present
their evidence. Thecros
will by Mr.. Bingham. ThePresidenps
counsel express the opinion that they
can get in all their evidence, documen-
tary and oral, in three days, but It is
safe to allow them a week. The mana
gers do not expect to object to much of
their evidence, SO that little time will
be occupied in discussing interlocutory
questions. Butler, however, is 30 much
inclined TO pugnacity, that he can't
keep out of controversy. It has been
arranged that Messrs. Evarts and STAN
berry will make the closing arguments
for the defence.
The managers are busIly engaged in
the case, and at recent meeting dee
cided that the concluding arguments
for the prosecution should be made by
Messrs. Bingham and Boutwell,, both
of whom are now engaged in preparing
the same. The state of Mr.. Stevens
health obliged him to relinquish the
idea of making an argument on his ar
ticle, as he had originally intended.
1t is reported that the managers in an
swer to the point made by the defence
that the case of Secretary Stanton does
not come within the terms of the ten
ure-Of-ofice act, will present a letter of
President Johnson 10 the officers of the
Lincoln Cabinet requesting and au-
thorizIng them to continue in charge OF
their respective departments.
There is prospect that the trial will
close with the month. The defence of
the President will consist mostly in
attempting to show that under the
tenure-of-ofEice act he had the right to
remove Stanton, and further that he
was DESTROYS of testing its constitu-
tionality. There is not much chance of
changing the opinions OF republican
Senators, but Stanbery and Evarts
think they Gun show that Mr.. johnson
was not nctuated by malice in what he
did. Senator Anthony telegraphs the
Providence Journal that no sensible TO-
publican there doubts that johnson
will be impeached.

THE New York Herald advises JEFF.
Davis to skedaddle to some part of
the world outside OF tho Jurisdiction OF
the United States. The Herald says
that by the second of May, Andrew
Johnson will be out of the White House
and Ben. Wade will be in. The frst
thing then in order will be the hanging
of Mr.. Davis to n sour apple tree, "and
old Ben. Wade is the man to do it."
This Is the Significance, says the Her
aid, of the new indictment, which sis
framed to convict and not to release"
Mr.. Greeley and JeG's other suretlOs
will feel Obliged to Bennett for this ad-
vice.

There are in Kansas fifty millions of
acres of land mostly untitled. Album
dant water powers await improvement.
The needed people are migrating some
aChere. All we have to do is to make
our resources and wants known. We
must disabuse the eastern mind of the
impression that we are subject to drouths
and grasshoppers. Then, of the more
than half million of people and hun
dreds of millions of money every yelr
seeking new homes and investments,
Kansas may secure proper share.-At-
Gibson Champion.
The above is sensible and pointed.
Kansas should by rights receive the
great bulk of the western emigration
for years to come. She possesses every
inducement that an emigrant could de-
sire, and will return rich profits to those
who invest in her domain. Come on,
emigrants, and don't allow the silly sto-
rios of grasshoppers and drouths to ef-
feet your settling in the choicest garden
Of the Republic-'or such. most truly,
