CHICAGO OADvERIsEMENTs-I would be
amusing, If It were not also sadlcning, TO
peruse the advertising columns of the Chi.
cago papers At the present time. Nothing
like it has ever been seen before, and It is to
be hoped nothing like it will ever be seen
hereafter. All the advertisements ars In
reality just SO many expressions of grief,
uncertainty and penury. A few in the Tr;.
bu"e begin rs follows: "Wauted to find
Swedish girl Sophie, formerly living in my
family" "A lost COW can be found a,," etc.
Two stray trunks can be heard from At"

for two long. closely. printed columns.
There are also fearful number of Miss.

fairs in Georgia. On Thursday morning
about six O'Clock she was discovered dead,

it was deemed expedient to bury it in the
ocean. which was done as above stated.

The Chicago Relief Fund.

We have received from Charleston sympa-
thisers The following subscriptions to the
fund for the relief Of the sufferers by the
Chicago fire. The amount is not large, but
it will be remembered that this city, in ad-
dition to lis fearful losses during the war
and Immediately afterwards, is only now
emerging from distressipgly sickly season.
All that the donors could do, they have done.
They have shown Enthusiastically their good
will towards a community which, like our
own, was tried and borne down by over
whelming affliction. But the sympathy OF
Charleston with stricken Chicago must not
be measured by the number OF money sub
scriptions. We know Of many warm-heart-
ed Charlestonians who earnestly desired to
aid Chicago, but who could not do so be-
cause they are barely able to support their
own families. These can only give the West
ern city unspoken words OF compassion and
regret.
We shall forward the Charleston subscrip-
tions, with the names OF the subscribers, 10
the Mayor Of Chicago byto.day's mail, and
we doubt not that their receipt will be
promptly acknowledged

Fenlan raid into Manitoba on the 9th instant.
For several days previously there had been In
definite rumors and considerable excitement
at Fort Garry, and finally Mr.. Douglass, the
asss, ant customhouse officer, was alarmed oy
o hn;fbreed who told him that about forty
men were marching toward the spot. Seeing
them coming, Douglass started across the
prairie to inform the Hudson Bay garrison.
He was pursued by General O'Donohue, who
presented revolver at his head and ordered
him back, under the authority of the Provi-
slonal Government of Manitoba. The remains
then captured The Hudson Bay post at NORM
Pembna, the only inmates being an ola man
and his wife, Mr.. Watt, one earned Hudson
Bay official, and Mr.. Scott, his clerk. The Fe-
mans seized all the provisions and made
selections of clothing for themselves, and other
articles, and started one load OF provisions
down the river. Douglass. ia the meantime,
communicated with Colonel Wheaton, COM
mandant of the United States forces at Fort
Pemblna, who shortly appeared upon the
scene with about thirty men. Thereupon
stampede OF the Fenians Immediately TOOK
,iaca; but Wheaton displayed such activity
tha. he soon overhauled and captured O'Neil
Ind ;everal subordinate officers. He also
secured about three hundred stand of arms,
seven thousand pounds of ammunition and
a quantity Of provisions that the Fenians were
sending away from the post. The prison ers
were taken to Fort Pembina and confined Ia
the barracks. General O'Nei took his capture
very philosophically. On being put into an
ambulance. he took out his pipe and smoked
during the short ride to the fort. 1t is believ-
ed that the raid was badly planned, and Will
amount to nothing. The capture Of the lead
ers. with their arms, ammunition and stores
at the outset of the campaign, is probably fatal
to the enterprise.

the convention endorses the same, "that
s'after deductlng the actual cost OF produc-
"tion there will not remain in the hands OF
sproducers o sufficient amount to pay the
"taxes upon their property thus leaving
'sthem without the means OF support Tor
'their families and employees for the ensu-
'fng year." Further, the committee shows
that the receipts into the State treasury
average but SS3, 49l 81 and the expendl-
lures but 500, 3Os 65 per annum for the Six
teen years ending October 81, 1861, and
that the taxes imposed for this year are
within $500, 900 of the entire collection in
said sixteen years. Further, it is declared
that the scrip in which salaries, jurors fees,
&C., are paid is non-receivable for taxes, and
that nothing is exempt from sale for taxes
''neither the agricultural implements, nor
''the horse of the laboring man, nor the bed
"1pon which his family rest after their days
'toi, nor the food on which they make
'their daily meal" The committee, there
fore, and, by adopting its report, the con-
vention, call upon Governor Reed to sus-
pend the collection of taxes, both State and
county, till the next meeting OF the LeSisla-
ture. or, if he cannot do that in his opinion
constitutionally, to call an extra session
forthwith. There are small hopes, it is to be
feared, OF his doing either of these things.
By reason of the extreme difficulty, if not
impossibility, OF negotiating State bonds the
only hope OF emolument for the adventurers
at present running" Florida is to pile up
the taxes.

The Future of France.

The ascertained results of the late French
election leave the complexion OF the political
future there in doubt, owing 10 uncertainty
how the representatives of the smaller par
ties will act There had been eighteen hun
dred and forty-seven representatives elected
to the Conseils Generaux Saturday. These
are returned as ninety.four BonapartiSts,
one hundred and ninety-four Legitmists,
two hundred and one Radicals, four hundred
and ninety one Moderates, and eight hun
dred and sixty-seveu Liberal Conservatives.
The two latter, who are not separated by
any insuperable barriers, would, should they
unite have three times the strength OF the
combined opposition. But the opposition
cannot combine in such way. While many
strange things are possible in politics, it is
impossible that the adherents of Bonaparte,
ChambGd, Rochefort and Pyat should
unite under any stress, and were they to do
so, they would still be in a minority OF thr-
teen hundred and ffty-eight Of the known
representatives There are not wanting
reasons warranting doubt whether the
Moderates will blend with the Liberal Con-
seryatives. And yet their fundamental theo-
ries are similar; they have co-operated, and
the reasons why they should do so hereafter
are greater rather than less. If they do, the
future administration is pretty well outlined
in what Theirs has done and attempted TO
do. The small returns Of the Legitimists
pure and the Bonapartists indicate that
French feeling toward them is "a plague on
ssop both YOUR houses"

the Buffers of South Carolina, one of
whom long represented that State in
the Senate. Another, Pierce, but not

Fanny Kemblo long years ago, and
their daughter inherited what was
once handsome property in Georgia.
There was some trouble between the
parents, so the mother lived in Eng

this country with her father. A few
years ago he died, and, though often
visiting her mother, she still preferred
to live on the old family place at the
