ANNENArioN.-Au Ottawa Dispatch states
that in addition 10 the annexation t. this
Dominion OF British Columbia ana Van
couvcr's Island, now determined upon, there
are ad0at the first whispers of scheme by
which tie British West India Islands are to
be also brought within the Confederation.
For some time past the people of those Is
lands have been asjtatjng for a union among
themselves and the idea has developed into
the larger one of union with Canail So
tar very little has been said about the mat
ter here, or in the West Indies either, but
the idea has been set adptt; and 70 those
who are accustomed to study the signs Of the
times it Will not be matter of surprise It,
before many months have elapsed. the Brit

admission into the Canadian Confederation

The burning of the Halliday House in
kenosla, Wisconsin, involving the loss of
nine lives, is another horror TO be added to
the catalogue Of kerosene accidents,-the
fire having teen caused by the explosion Of
a kerosene lamp. Capt Everett and Mr..
Smith returning from a bali, discovered the
fire They at once attempted to arouse the
inmates OF the house, about thirty in num-
Der, but the flames spread rapidly, the smoke
rushing upstairs, and filling the stair-cases
and passages with dense and sufOcating
atmosphere. The night was dark, a strong
wind blowing, and a fall of heavy snow and
sIeet added horror t. the scene. BY the
lurid glare of the flames could be seen men
and women leaning from the windows and
crying in despair for assistance from below
None of the ladders would reach the third
story, and when two were spliced, the heat
was 50 great that no one could ascend them,
though the screams of women and children
from the upper story induced several attempts
The terrible result was as above stated
Among those burned to death were a Mrs
Merrill and her four children

THE TKsT oATH.l

Congress has passed bill abolishing the
test oath-sometimes called the iron-clad
oath-in all cases not included in the four
teenth amendment to the Constitution. More
than half of the Republican members from
the Southern States favored the measure, in
sisting that it would be wise as a measure Of
party policy Other Republican members
from the South voted for it because they said
they could Mt live at home if they opposed
it, More than half of the Republican mem
bers Of the House voted against it. In the
Senate it passed without call of the yeas
and nays. l to-day heard a prominent mem
Der of the House, who is credited with being
on friendly terms with the Executive, init
mate that the bill would be vetoed.

CARPET-BAGGER COMES TO GRlEF.-An-
other carpet-bagger is about to come 70 griei.
n onpears that fraud has been uneartned ~
the General Land Office in which the Loyal
az q Governor w f. Smith and ex-United STATES
SENATOR Willard Warner of Alabama, are par
ties in an attempt to defraud that State OF iahd
scrip covering thousands of acres. Smith was
defeated for reelection for Governor and war
ner was succeeded by Democrat In the SEN
ate Init the two worthless, true to their natural
instincts, determined to feather their own nests
before retiring from office. A private Letter
from q gentleman in Ohio brought about an IN
vestipation of affairs ut Washington, when the
fraud was detected and the scoundrels pre-
vented from carrying out their plunderlng
schemes. The telegraph reports that the mat
ter is to be investigated in Congress- when the
whole proceeding will doubtless be made pub
lie. Warner doubtless desired to carry OIL
"home stake" back to Ohio, but bis little
game was, unexpectedly to him, broken IN
upon and he will not dare to show bis face IN
Alabama again An example ought to be made
of few of the carpet-bag thieves who have
infested the South since the war, as warning
to others of that ilk.

UNCOMPLIMENTARY.-T Statesman of
April 1st announces the return from Owyhee
of the handsome Judas who carries the Ter
ritorial bag" Judge Gray will not relish such
left-handed compliment. He might stand
the handsome" part, but to be called Judas"
by the organ of his party seems somewhat
strange; not so strange either when we reflect
that of late the Radical brethren in Boise City
don't dwell together in unity" A spirit of
anything but harmony seems to prevail among
those who sit in high places in the Radical
synagogue.

WEAK DEFENsE.-In the dispatches OF
March 18th. containing an account Of the de-.
bate in the Senate on Summers san Domingo
resolutions. we find the following:
Mfr FrclinRhnyscn eioquentiy testified to the
services of General Grant IN conquering the rebel
lion"
That is about all that can be SAID in reply TO
Summers "sledgc hammer" BLOWS at the uu-
worthy occupant of the White House. Such
a plea for Grant under the circumstances, is
about on par with that made by an attorney
years ago when defending a fellow for forgery.
The evidence against his client was conclusive,
there could be no question in regard to his
guilt; but it happened that the forger, when
young man, was one of the party that followed
Anthony Wayne, or Mad Anthony" as he
was called, in desperate night assault on
Stony Point, so as u dernier resort he dwelt at
length on the patriotism and heroic deeds of
the prisoner while in the revolutionary army,
and asked the jury whether they would send
to the State prison, for passing contemplate
thirty-dollar forged note, an old hero who, in
his youth, cheered his country in her darkest
hour by storming Stony Point. The jury re-
turned verdict of ",not guilty, because he
stormed Stony Point" Frelinghuysen evil
IDENTITY believes that, because Grant, through
superiority of numbers.-after uselessly sacri-
ficlng the lives of thousands of bis own troops,
comprised the surrender of handful of
Confederates, therefore, in view of his eminent
services /" in conquering the rebellion" his
crimes and misdemeanors should go unpun-
ished, and the American people should shut
their eyes to his guilty and criminal practices,
and on his trial at the bar of public opinion u
verdict should be rendered of not guilty, be.
cause he stormed the Confederate works
around Richmond The people have had about
enough of Mr. Grant, and should he force his
denomination upon the Republican party
through his army of subordinates, he will be
the "worst beat" candidate that ever ran for
the Presidency. -.

the impeachment trial of Gov. Butler of Ne.
braska was closed March 23d, and on the 25th
the argument of counsel on both sides was con-
cluded; but when tho Court of Impeachment
met on the morning of March 9th Buffers
counsel, well knowing that if the vote was then
taken, a verdict of guilty would have been rem
dered by the necessary two-thirds vote, they
made an application for further continuance,
and, strange to say, it was granted and the
Court adjourned until May 3Oth. 1t probably
was done to give Butler chance to arrange
his affairs and resign his Office.

CoNvICTED.-The North Carolina Senate,
on March 22d, voted on the articles of i'm
parchment preferred by the House against
Governor Holden and convicted him by more
than o two-thirds vote. An order was then
passed. removing Holden from office and dis
qualifying him from holding any office of honor
or profit in the State. The public career of
one scoundrel has thus been brought to fitting
close, but we shall next hear of him before the
Congressional Ku-Klux Committee begging
legislation to keep himself in office at the ex-
pense of all the decent people Of the State
whom he has outraged in every conceivable
manner.

FENIAN CONFERENCE.-The Fenian Con-

York. elected twenty-one Councilmen, who also
serve on the Financial, Judicial and Executive
Committees, and they will constitute the ex-

vention declared, as a body, opposition to raids
on Canada, and propose to wait until England
becomes involved in foreign war. These
were the controlling points decided by the
Convention, which adjourned March 9th.

A DECISION IN NEBHAsKA.-Chief Justice

A DECISION IN NEBRAsKA.-Chie Justice
Mason of Nebraska rendered q. decision re-
Gently Of which but little notice has been taken.
He decided that negroes could not sit on juries
in that State, basing his decision on the grounds
that the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amend
.ments grant certain rights and privileges to
the negroes but impose no duties on them, and
that jury service is a burden and not priv
lege; and further, that the State Constitution
can only be changed by the same power that
enacted it,-that is by the people,-an Con-
gress could not confer upon the Legislature
any such right; that as the State Constitution
excluded negroes from such service they could
not therefore serve as jurors until the Consti-
tuition of the State was changed or amended
by the people in the manner provided for in
such Constitution. This is rather an unlocked
for decision, coming from such source
Judge Mason is excessively "loyal," and such
q State-rights decision could, by no means,
have been expected from Radical Judge. If
it had emanated from Democratic occupant
of the bench it would have been heralded
throughout the country as another evidence OF
rebellous sentiments on the part OF the De-
nlocracy, while had Southern Judge, in Ten
nessee or Georgia for instance, rendered such
decision, it would have been Immediately
brought to the attention of Congress and the
wrongs of the colored race and prosecutions
of loyalists in those States would, for some
time, occupy the attention of that august as
semblage Of carpet-baggers and political wise
acres, who would doubtless set the Reconstruc-
ton mill in operation once more. But Nebras-
ka is very "loyal" State, and Judge Mason
being Radical in good standing,-in fact. be-
longing to the extreme wing of the party, no
attention is paid by his political associates or
the Radical party press to this decision.

Dwinelle, March Goth. The case excites q
great deal Of interest and considerable difficult
ty was encountered in procuring jury, as
nearly everybody had formed or expressed an
opinion in regard to the affair.
