    SUMMARY OF AMERICAN NEWS.

    The N. Y. Trabune publishes an extract
    from a naval officer's letter stating, on the!
    authority of an English officer, that ‘ta pro-|

    ject is on foot in England, superintended by!

    Maury of the Confederate nayy, to capture |
    the LU. S. squadron on the Mediteranean
    station with iron clad vessels, now said to be
    nearly ready for sea.”’

    A hundred members of the late Congress
    have united in a call for a Convention to
    promote enlarged facilities for commerce be-
    tween the Kust and West, to be held in
    Chicago, on the first Tuesday in June. They
    invite all interested, and especially ask the
    co-operation and aid of the Boards of Trade,
    Chambers of Commerce, Agricultural So-
    cieties and business associations, as they re-
    gard the enlargement of the canal between
    the valley of the Mississippi and the Atlantic
    as of great national, commercial, military
    importance, tending to promote the develop-
    mept and unity of the whole country.

    Latest advices from Port Royal state that
    the Yankee fleet now there numbers 123
    vessels, incjuding the frigates and 20 gun-
    boats. The rest are chiefly transports. There
    are now 30,000 men collected there aud more
    are expected.

    The condition of the Federal finances at
    the close of the late session of Congress, is
    thus stated in the Washington news :

    ‘* The Appropriations made by the Thirty-
    seventh Congress are as follows :
    Extra Session, July, 1861, about $264,-

    Long Session, ending 17th July, 1862,
    $913,000 000,

    Short Session, ending March 4, 1863, $1,-
    100 000,000.

    Receipts from duties on imports, internal
    revenue, direct taxes, sale of public lands,
    &e., as estimated from March 4, 1861, to
    July 1, 1864, $320,000,000,— which, de-
    ducted from the above sum, will leave the
    amount of indebtedness up to July 1, 1864,

    [From the Richmond Examiner, Feb. 10.]

    We have fairly entered on the third stage indi-
    cated by the President in his message, viz., that of |
    a war of subjugation and extermimation. The)
    people of the Confederacy, tselated and shut up|
    trom allthe world, have now to encounter the!
    most hornble ard demoniae effort for the assassin-|
    ation of a whole race that history has yet recorded, |
    or we believe will ever have to record, till history |
    grows grey. For it is not every century that
    shows the world a Yankee nation. Yea, the Con-
    federate people have now at last to strip for
    battle; it is the people that must this time very
    literally conquer or die.

    No p Bare it would be agreeable to believe that
    this last stage of the war will soon be over, and
    must end in the speedy destruction of our intended
    murderers. But loek round the map of the Con-
    federacy, and judge if we can soothe ourselves with
    this belief. In the very heart of the country our
    gallant sentinel of the Mississippi river, hervic
    little Vicksburg, has sustained, indeed, and baffled
    two tremendous sieges; but a third time her
    citizens see pouring in around them from the north
    aud the west enormous masses of the beleaguer-
    ing foe, iron floating batteries again erowd upon
    her, and even as you read these words, two hun-
    dred heavy guns may be thundering upon her
    defences, a hundred thousand mén may be pressing
    to the storm of her ramparia. Again she will
    drive them off, perhaps, and remain the famous
    maiden city of this hemisphere, the bulwark of the
    west. So be it! But the vision we see on the
    Mississippi doea not look like exhaustion er des-
    pair ou the part of the foe just yet.

    And, again, look at the wouth of the mighty
    river. New Orleans is not @ waiden city, alas !
    the base rag that has so often been rent and
    trampled betore Richmond and before Vicksburg
    flies from all the towers of that deflowered city.
    Hordes of hungry Yankees, armed to the teeth,
    sit in the shades of her oratge groves, and station
    negro guards over the mansions of her noblest
    citizens. Alt her best and fairest have to lament
    every day that their goodly city had not been laid
    in ashes before it beeame a haunt of obscene
    creatures. Nosignof relaxation there! And but
    a short way off, Mobile, by the shore of her spaci-
    ous bay, keeps diligent watch and ward, expecting
    in the light of each morning sun to see the thrice

    | suspicion of murder rests upon him.

    | THE THIRD STAGE OF THE WAR. | TERRIBLE TRAGEDY IN BUFFALO. |

    On Friday last, 27th ultimo, the house of a Mr.
    Douglas or Donald Frazer was burned in Buf-
    falo, and his wife and three children were found

    ead in the ruins. It was at first supposed that
    they had perished in the flames, but although their
    bodies were sadly burned, a post-mortem examin-
    ation bas revealed the terrible fact that the throats
    of the whole four were ent, leaving no doubt that
    the house was fired in order to conceal the mur-

    er. Frazer, it appeared, was once engaged in
    business in Hamilton, but about twelve months ago
    went to Buffalo. From the testimony of aa
    acquaintance, it appears that he had about $5,000
    in his possession. it was thought at first that he
    had left Buffalo for Canada—as he frequently had
    business to transact over there—the night before
    the fire; but at the inquest he was proved to have
    been at his house at half-past five on Thursday
    evening.” As he has not been seen since, and as
    all efforts to find him have proved unavailing, the
    His most
    intimate acquaintances, however, cannot point to
    anything in bis past life to justify that suspicion,
    unless it be that he appears to have laboured
    under religious excitement. The Buffalo Courier
    says:— The missing man is spoken of by those
    who knew him as possessed of rather marked
    reasoning powers, and of kindly and quiet disposi-
    tion; but irom certain religious tracts in our pos-
    session, it is evident that on religious subjects he
    was a monomaniac. The title page of one of
    these pamphlets, illustrated with ths picture of a
    bible, bears the following: ‘Search the Serip-
    tures. The Opening of Prophecy or Word of God,
    Four letters Free of Charge.” This was pub-
    lished by Seobell & Dack, 37 Park Row, New
    York, and dated Canada, A. D., 1861, ‘The first
    letteris headed, “ He that rejecteth thee rejecteth
    me,”’ and opens witli the following strange para-
    graph:

    “ Douglas Frazer, called forth of God and raised
    up from darkness to the light to declare his ways.”’

    That he believed himselt specially delegated of
    God to illumine the wertd, is evident from the fol-
    lowing paragraph :

    * And now, before proceeding any further, let me
    say to my readers, that I have received a command
    from the Lord to write. And the word of the Lord
    came to me a second time, saying ‘‘ write, write.”’

    On Wednesday evening jast, the Isth inst., a
    very interesting, instructive and eloquent lecture

    | was delivered before the C. Y. M. Literary In-
    stitate, to a crowded audience, by the Very Rev.
    | Dr. McDonald, on the “ Lapidary Monuments of
    | early Christian Rome.” The Very Rev. genile-
    | nan, in the eourse of his remarks, eulogised, in
    glowing terms, the faith, piety. and devotion of the
    | early Christians of the Eternal City, as exemplified
    in the inseriptions on their monuments, the sim-
    plieity of which he very properly observed, is in
    strange contrast with the vanity manifested in
    inany of the monumental inscriptions of the present
    day. Although he viewed the whole subject in an
    antiquarian, rather than in a theological aspect,
    yet he showed very plainly that many of the
    doctrines of the Catholie Church ean be easily
    proved by these siraple, affecting inscriptions. It
    would be impossible for us, with the limited space
    at our command, to give even an outline of this
    admirable leeture, or to deseribe the masterly
    manner in which it was treated. It was very pro-
    perly anggested by one of the speakers who took
    part in the discussion which followed the lecture,
    that the learned Doctor should be invited to deliver,
    before the close of the season, another address on
    seine subject relating to Rome, with everything in
    reference to whieh he seems to be so well ac-
    quainted, and which is eo interesting to the
    Christian and the arehwologist.—Vtn.

    ference.—The regular monthly meeting of the
    above Society was held on Monday, 2ud March.
    A paper gr * The Characteristic Fossils of dif-
    ferent Coal Seams in Nova Seotia,” was read by
    Hy. Poole Esq. The value of this paper was
    greatly enhanced by ay jjlystrative collection of
    carboniferous fossils which was exhibjted at the
    meeting. Many of the specimens were ip gn ex-
    cellent state of preservation, andseryed to explain
    in a practical manner the views held by the author
    in regard to the formation of the system. Qne
    specimen in particular attracted attention, bearing
    on ite surface the forms of four or five fishes of a
    genus now extinct, having the scales, head, bones,
    aud even the rays of the fins, clearly perceptible
    under an ordinary lens. The paper was also ac-
    companied by series of colored plans showing the
    different coal fields of the province.

    A short paper inreference to “ Literal changes”
    was communicated by Rt. G. Haliburton, Esq.

    Pristine witnout Ink.—A gentleman, a
    large capitalist and one of the most succeas-|
    fal inventors of the day, has succeeded in)
    chemically treating the palp, during the pro- |
    cess of manufacturing printing paper, in such
    a manner that when the paper is impreesed
    upon the aninked types the chemical par-
    ticles are crushed, and perfect black im-
    pression ie the result. The advantage sought
    to be obtained is the discarding of ink and
    rollers ; and by revolutionizing printing ma-
    chinery and printing from a continuous roll
    of paper, it is calculated that the time oceu-
    pied ip impressing large quantities of paper
    will be nomingl in comparison to the require-
    ments of the present day. Cleanliness of the
    printing office would thus become proverbial,
    and the time now wasted in inking and dis-
    tributing the roliera obviated. We have been
    assisting this gentleman in some parts of his
    experiments, and further information is with-
    held, at his request, until Letters Patent

    was immense. The two coffins contaiving their

    SPECIAL NOTICES.

    Holloway’s Ointment and Pills.—Rieumatism
    and pains in the limbs.—Muscular pains are some-
    times insufferably distressing. Though they may
    not impair the general health at first, ultimately
    such must be their effect if permitted to coftinue
    unrelieved. It should be generally known that
    after fomentation with warm salt and water,
    Holloway’s Ointment, well rubbed upon the af-
    fected part twice a day, gives instant ease, and
    secureg y}tjmate recovery.
    should ajso be taken to assist in the cure: they
    prevent all weak and numb feelings, so apt to pre-
    vail aftey neuyalgic and rheumatic attacks. A
    lady writes :—* After suffering a martyrdom from
    severe attack of rheujpatism, and obtaining ne re-
    lief from the faculty, I tried your Ointment and
    Pills, and rejoice to shy they quickly cured me.”
