OTTowA, April 1O.-James Whalen,
who is in custody on suspicion of being
Mr.. McGee's murderer, is a Fenian
who belonged to a Quebec lodge and
afterward to a New York circle. There
Is but little doubt but that he is the
real culprit.
A plot has been discovered to blow
up the House of Parliament by Means
of nitro glycerine. It has produced
the most intense excitement in every
circle: Extreme vigilance is main
tanned by the military and civil au-
thortties, to prevent any out break.
The Government and the English
Cabinet are constantly exchanging
long cable dispatches concerning the
events of the past and the possible
events of the future.

The long and unbroken spell of wintry
weather which yet keeps with US Is agitating
good folks and philosophers. Sdudns of all pro-
fessions aud weather prophets from the North,
East, South, and West are considerably cxer.
cised over the fact, and numberless predictions
In reference to the permanent opening OF
spring have been made. The great "weather
wise" OF New York city stated on Saturday
last that two more SHOWS would visit the
country north OF the parallel Of 80 degrees,
and sweep from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
His conjecture may probably prove true, but
II SO, and 1t should be succeeded by frost, the
injury to crops will be irreparable. So far
the frosts have not caused any serious mis-
chief, but few fruit trees being affected; but as
the buds spring forth In their vernal beauty
under the genial influence Of mild, interven-
Ing days, a sudden nipping, icy air would at
once destroy their fragrance aud wither them
In the first blush Of spring. We hope that this
may not be, but that the dull blast OF winter
may leave US until the dresry months of No
vember or December are ushered In, and the
keen and piercing Northwest, gale as It blows
over land and sea, admonishes us ouce me- 80
OF the approach OF the icy king.

sergenu, Bates a, the c.pi,o,.

Sergeant Bates arrived at the Capitol yester-
day afternoon at half past two o'clock, accom-
panied by a numerous crowd OF persons, black
and white, and, after entering the building,
sought admission to the stairway leading to
the dome for the purpose Of there planting tho
nag which he had borne so faithfully IRONY iekl-
burg. He had pass from General Michler,
Commissioner Of Public Buildings, which was
subsequently approved by George T. Brown,
Sergeant.at-Arms OF the Senator but the CHIEF
Of the Capitol police, Captain Corson, Informed
Mr.. Bates that 1t would be necessary to also
have the signature Of approval of N. @. Ord
way, Sergeant-at-Arms OF the House OF Rep
resentatives. The sergeant was requested to
wait few moments until information could
be sent to Mr.. ordway, and himself and com.
mittee would then be allowed to proceed to the
dome but a few Of the party accompanying
the gallant sergeant were impatient, and one
Of them exclaimed, "that they had made
their point" and that they would withdraw;
whereupon the sergeant was led away In
to hack and conveyed to the Washington
Monument, where the finale of the gallant SOL
dler's trip was reached, and the nag hoatcd
upon its lofty height.

The rand spread Of liberal principles and
ideas In Europe Is a feature OF tho times truly
encouraging, and presagcs the dawn Of that
day when the long oppressed maases Of tia
people shall be discnthraIled and The doctrine
shaiI be established and cverywhere admitted
that Institutions are made for man, and not
man for Institutions. VI r. y
In no country Is this fact more significantly
manifest than in Austria. Even Francis
Joseph seems latterly to have become re.
former, and many OF his recent acts will go far
to show that the House of Hapsburs may yet
redeem itself and achieve q character that
shall win for II the championship Of free prin.
ciples and manly and Independent defence Of
them. rEae
Thereaotion which succeeded the revolution
ofls4s seated this then youthful prince on his
throne, and at the age oftwenty-one he signal.
ired his advent to power BY series Of acts
sweeping away every vestiss Of freedom. In
1851 he issued that famous-orr rather, perhaps
we should say infamous-ediet Of Sehonbrunn,
assuming absolute power, and proceeded to
destroy the constitution which he had granted
at the time Of his accession. The trial BY Jury
was abolished, and everything like the free.
