The RED RIVER 1NSURRECTION
rIZZLlNG OUT.

The latest advices from Fort Garry
indicate that the instruction has very
nearly 6zzled out. The Provisional
Council met on the 10th ult., adjourned
to the 18th, and again to the 22d,
without arriving at any conclusion.
The last meeting has not yet been heard
from, but the probabilities are that Gov.
McDougall has already, without meet
ing any opposition, taken his scat as
Governor, at Fort Garry.
