THE FEYLdN SCARE IN CANADA.

MONTREAL, November 16.-The situation at
the front is not materially changed. Lieut
Col. George Fl. Bacon, whom the Government
has sent to the frontier to keep watch on sus-
pected parties, returned to town this morning,
for few hours, to report. He stated that
there was no regular massng of men but
very general movement from Vermont and New
York towards and across the Canadian line, of
suspicious-lookiDg folk in small knots. [Query
TrampsD st. Albans letter predicts trouble,
though it gives no details. Some suspicion has
been excited at st. ATmRnd's CRANKY and Wa
terloo by the arrival in each place of some
twelve or fifteen young men from eighteen to
twenty-six years, all of Irish Nationality ap-
parently, who register from different points In
the United States, and state that they have
come to Canada to study, aud that their tutors
are soon to follow them. The party at CRANKY
have eleven large, solid and heavy trunks.
Being unable to secure q house in the town
they have rented large farmhouse about
quarter of a mile out, where they have since
remained. They are quiet and sober folk, yet
the townspeople are scared and the military
authorities have placed a guard over the
armoTy, which contains field battery Of four
pieces. Major Amyrauld, who is in command
there, anticipates no general trOub BILE, bot raid
on some small outlying town.

WE, the undersigned, take pleasure in sta
w ting that we have been using the Non
Explosive Petro Oil sold by VIM. j. Brown,
SR., of Jackson, Miss, for some longth of time,
and have never had an explosion, Some of
us have had our lamps and cans to catch fire en-
the inside, the oil to burn entirely out with
out an explosion, and we are satisfied that it
is the safest Oil or Burning Fluid that we
have been able to get and would recommend
it to persons wanting the safest and best light.
We believe it is all that Mr.. Brown claims for
