his poems; Holmes is rated at 100000, hes-
edetary property, increased by lecturing and
literature; Whittier, who lives frugally, is
worth $4,000, inherited and earned by his

Canada Made Ridiculous.

The Government OF Canada have for n
fortnight past apparently been in a trcmen.
dous fever of alarm at IN approaching inva
sion of American Fenians. They say that
arms and ammunition are in process OF col.
lection in large quantities at points in Yer
mont near the border, and that, when every.
thing is ready, nm army of several thousand
Fenians will assemble and burst in, like de.
vastating food, upon the unlucky Canadian
territory, The Canadian authorities feign
to credit these reports; and it is probable
that not less than million Of dollars will be
expended by them in making preparations to
resist this imaginary attack.
We venture TO assert that if the Fcnians
have any hostile designs upon Canada, their
plan of campaign does not embrace operations
having Vermont as their base. Such plan
is too absurd TO be entertained for moment.
especially after the wretchcd failure
of the Fenian raid in 1866. 1t is
much moro reasonable TO suppose that
there may be design to cooperate with
the Red River insurgents by sending them
men and supplies, though even this design
will be suinmarily frustrated by our Govern
ment the moment it makes itself manifest in
any organized manner.
The truth is that this whole Fenian scare
in Canada is got up and kept going by
British and Canadian officials for the purpose
of increasing their political importance, and
giving them pretext for raising and ex.
pending large sums of money, portion of
which will necessarily stick TO their own fin
gers. On the one hand they play on the
fears of the Canadians, and on the other on
the pride of the home Government and be-
tween the two hope to delay what they can.

Canada, and their own political overthrow. =,
