An INTERNAL CRIME.-The New York
Herald says The crime charged against a
man named Lange, dealer in picture frames
in this city, is one that should give him pre-
eminence in the criminal catalogue for dia-
bolical intent. He shipped box IN April
last on the New Orleans steamer and secur-
ed an insurance on it of one thousand six
hundred and fifty dollars, and the box prov
ed to have been prepared with explosive and
inflammable material, and was only prevent
ed from burning the ship by the watchful-
ness and activity of the captain. In the
box were vessels of alcohol, gasoline and
turpentiEe, and fire was apparently to have
been set to these by chemical that would
explode with slight friction. The. friction
was provided for by mice shut in box, who,
in gnaNing their way out, were to flre the
train that might have destroyed the ship
and all her company at sea. Here, then, Is,
if the charge prove true, a man who deIIb>
erately contriVes that awful calamity, fire on
a ship at sea-contrives the possible fright
ful death of twenty or thirty persons-to Sc
cure the small prize of sixteen hundred dol
lars insurance money He should be tried
by ajury of sea captains and sailors. 1t Isl
remarkable coincidence that this crime was
attempted against the steamer George Wash.
Ington, while some years since crime OF
the same nature was contrived IN the ship
ment of goods on the Mississippi steamer
Martha Washington.

THERE has been some misapprehension Of
the position of the Administration on the
question Of allowing portion of the British
expedition to pass through the Sault Ste.
Marie canal, and one of the vessels was re-
fused before explicit orders were issued,
The order issued by the President is to al
low all vessels not carrying munitions or
is extended to American vessels in passing
through the Welland canal. Information
is at hand that vessels loaded With supplies
for the Winnipeg expedition have already
passed through the canal into Lake Supe-
rior, enroute for the chain of lakes in the
Red River country.

Another Fenian Raid.

On Monday, May 23d, the telegraph
flashed throughout the country. with hght-
ming speed, the news that the Fenlans were
on the march to invade Canada. This news
was confirmed on Tuesday, whereupon the
President issued the following proclama-
ton:
Whereas, 1t has come to my knowledge
that sundry illegal military enterprises and
expeditions are being set on foot within the
territory and jurisdiction Of the United
States, with view TO carry on the same
from such territory and jurisdiction against
the people aud district of the Dominion OF
Canada, within the dominions of her Majes-
ty the Queen of the United Kingdom OF
Great britain and Ireland, with whom the
United States are at peace now, therefore,
|, Ulysses 5. Grant, President of the UNI
ted States, do hereby admonish all good
citizens of the United States, and all per.
sons within the territory and jurisdiction OF
the United States, against aiding, counteh-
ancing, abetting, or taking part IN such I'M
lawful proceedings and | DO hereby warn
all persons that by committing such Illegal
acts they will forfeit all right TO the protec-
ton of this Government, or to Its lnterfe-
renee in their behalf to rescue them from
the consequences of their own acts. And l
do hereby enjoin all officers in the service OF
the United States to employ all their lawful
authority and power to prevent aud defeat
the aforesaid unlawful proceedings, and to
arrest and bring to justice all persons who
may be engaged therein.
The two objective points for the assem-
bling of the Fenians seem to have been
Huntington and Pigeon Hill, from whence
they were to invade Canada in force. Con-
hicts took place at each of these points be-
| tween the advance of the Feuians and some
| Dominion militia--the Fenians in each case
! fleeing after receiving a volley from the
enemy. Several of the most prominent Fe
nian officers were wounded, several follow.
ers killed, and a number taken prisoners.
The present attempt, like the former one
of invading Canada was complete failure
on the part of the Fenians. As to the cause
of the failure there is diversity Of opinion
/ Some attribute it to the cowardice of the
men, and others to the ineiic;ency of the
| officers.
| u. S. troops are now stationed on tht
frontier to prevent any further hostile dem
onstration against q peaceable neighbor
This prompt action on the part of Presiden
Grant, in obeying the dictates of interna
tional courtesy. contrasts strangely with tht
conduct of the English and Canadian au
thorities during the late rebellion in thi
| country. The course of the President give:
great satisfaction in England, and the au
thorities of that country sh ould hang thei
heads in very shame, at this generous con
duct on the part of country whom they 81
lately and SO deeply wrongcd, and which
generosity they can only repay. by settling
| the claims which are now held by citizens o.
/ this country against them.

Senator Nye is reported to have delivered
himself as follows when an infuria;ed
husband pistols some of his friends, on sus-

duced his wife, Or to have been seduced by
her, it is true heroism to take the conse-
quences and be hanged according to law.
This would create genuine sympathy, and
be the highest possible vindication of domes-
tic honor. IF Dan Mcfarland were hung

goes his way, in public estimation, low,

you see, great wrong to Dan, and he ought
to feel grieved that he is not hanged. Ot
course, with his wife unfaithful to him, life
is desolate blank, dreary waste, moi
worth shucks. And if | were Dan, | be

President Grant acted wisely in putting a
veto upon the movement of the Wyoming
expedition into the Indian country by the
Big Horn Mining and Exploring .Associa.
ton. 1t is evident from the description of
the organization that it is INTENDED to make
formidable raid, which would be certain to
provoke retaliation, and thus open up a new
series OF Indian hostilitIes. Adviees from
Washington indicate clearly that a very
strong combination exists in Wyoming hos
tile to the Indians, and, considering the
pending negotiations for peace. the Admin
could not do otherwise than put
stop to the threatened movement.
