impressing the country people with a sense of their ine

rtance. But notwithstanding this, there were Irish
members who sneaked out of the House, or were absent,
while an outrage was beiug perpetrated upon the coun-
try, and upon the peuple who had sacriiiced their own
interests to give thei a positivn,

Whatever of comment there was upon the introdue-
tion again of this measure was Weak and vapid and with-

i out spivit or sincerity, These Was upon tie part of all
those who Qid speak a tacit reeoguiiion of the ryhia of
the Lnglish Govercament to mako a law which would
have the effect of placing the people under the tvet ot
the shonven magistrates aud the poliew. Me. Bright,
wich characteristic waolinces, did make some protest,
bur ready as he is to sympathize with the suiferings of
Treland, and to bete aud denounce injustice wherever it
exists, be can only regard this country with the eyes of
aforeiguer, Ue cannet feel bis own houor sullied by
the coutumely and wrong done to a country not his
own, but those fro whom eome Word of cooiment, or
some word of vindication might Oe expected, were ¢on-
spicuous by their silence,

If it were proposed to suspend the Habeas Corpus in
Eugland, what a storm of indignation would eet suck
a suggestion! Euglishmon of every rank, aliivagh
they are ready cnough to justify the oppression and
plunder of those who have the isfortune to come un-
der the sway of England, have a strong love of liberty
at home, and an elevated semse of their rights as

Englishmen. So that any interference with personal

liberty in England would be sure to meet with violent

opposition. ‘Phere is also underlying: this the great fact)
that, although Eagland may be ruled by a class, it is
nevertheless raled by Englishmen, who are proud of her
asa nation, and feel an interest in her prosperity, but
unhappy Ireland is the victin of a foreign rule and
foreign laws, and.has little else to feel proud of except
the unfaliering and unflinching devotiva of those who
are ‘slandered and anathemized for loving her, not
wisely, perhaps, but certainly with a sincerity which
cannot be questioned. Surely this reiga of terror ean-
not always last,and the darkness which now a Pei Ora
the country may be but the precursor of a bright and
glorious dawn !—Dublin Irishman, March 2.

The Clerk read an account of Sales from A, Me-
Neill, Auctioneer, of the retail of Stalls and Cellars
in the Market House, let at Publie Auction uuder
agreement from Ist Fobraary to 81st December,
1867, Onmotion it was ordered that a copy of
said account be furuished the Market Clerk for his
wuidance in collecting rent for said Stalls, &e.,
agreeably to the terms of Sale.

His houor the Recorder: Presented a Draft By-
Law, authorizing the formation and goverument of
Union Protection Company.

The propriety of adepting some steps with the
view of causing the romoval of the old building oc.
eupied and known as the City Hall, from Queeu
Square, was made a subject of discussion,

Several Members of the Council Board spoke in
favor of procuriug @ piece of ground in the vicibity
of the Sqaare to which the Building might be re-
moved, and thereby improving very materially the
appearence of the Queen Square, The desirability
ot removing the Building from its present position
iu order to eularge the faculties of the public around
the New Market House, reeeived the hearty coneur-
renes of the Board,aud a Resolution to the folowing
effect, submitted by A. IL. Yates, sq., was unan-
imously adopted, viz :—

Resulved, That uu address bo presented to the
Executive Government, requesting permission to”
remove the old building, kuown us the City Hall
aud Post Olfice, from off Queen Square to some con-
venivut place iu the immediate vicinity of said
Square, the City Council to provide a pieco of
ground for said Building. Ordered that a Committe
be appointed to ascertain a desirable vite to which
said building might be removed, aud to report
thereon to the neat meeting of Conneil.

Councillors Yates, Mitchell, aud DesBrisay were
appointed said Committee.

Ordered that specifications be immediately pre-
pared tor finishing the Upper Room of the New
Market Heuse in accordance with the original plan
of said building, aud that the Market Committee
be authorised to contract for the said work, and also
for the enclosing of the Market Grounds,

Councillor Mitchell gave notice that at next
meeting of Council he would submit a scheme for
altering the preseut mode of levying and collecting
the City Taxes with the view of applying to the
Legislature for enlarged powers.

The Clerk read minutes of proceedings of the
Board of Fire Department, recommending the re-
appointment of Thomas Alley, Esq, to the office of
Chief Engineer of that Department, Ordered that
Mr, Alley be appointed accordingly.

A number of City Expenditure Accounts were
then submitted by the’ Chairman of City Accounts,
a been severally road, were ordored to be
paid. ;
Maren 30—Councillor Morris presiding Coun-
cillor Mitchell represcuted to the Board that the
City Collector had declined to make a return of
the names of all persons ia arrears for payment
of City assessinent for past year. On motion, it was
resolved that the condact of City Collector in neglecting
to guns a Return of said detaulters, was unjustifiable
and reprehensible, and that he be required forthwith to
submit said Return. ’
Ordered that in future the City Accounts shall be
andited semi-annually, agreeably to the 20th Act of In-
corporauion,

engaged in friendly competition for the palin of victory
in the various departments of science, mechanics and
art, the peace of Europe is suddenly threatened by
France and Prussia. We have no idea ot the origin « ¢
the bad feelings which is said to exist between Uicce
two Powers, Natioual jealousy and a desire for terri-
torial syegrandizement would seem to be the exciting
cause upon both sides. At all events itis generally
tdinitiud that there is tog much bad blood Letween
France aud Vrussia tu permit the hope that the peace
ef Europe will bo lenyg maintained. We should not
be surprised to hear at any moment of a deelaration o!
war between these great Powers, Prassia may be
anxious tu migasure her recently acquired strength
against France, and the latter may be only too glad o}
the chunce to humble her rival, and blot out the
memories connceted with Blucherand Waterloo. The
struggle would bo terrife, and its issue would be
rather diflcult to foretell. Germany bas never ye
been able to withstand tue prowess of Fifince, nor
even the combined forces of continental Karope, but,
with Austria either noutral or hostile in such a contest.
we cannot beHeve that the combined resources of the
vew Kingdom of Prussia would be a mateh for France
However, the same unlooked-for and hidden success
which atiended the arms of Prussia upon the bloody
batule-field ot Bobemila, culminating in the decisive
victory of Sadowa, might still attach itself to that Power
m the effort to humble the all-conquering Gauls. It is
an experiment whieh we sincerely hope will not be
irled for many a long day.

Fonianism still excites considerabie attention in
Great Britain, althongh the movement seems to have
been stamped out in Ireland. In the United States‘
however, the Brotherhoed is, accordimg to information
contained in the papers, making preparations for au
early invasion and seizure of the New Dominion of
Canada An attempt of that kind will, no doubt, be
made with the sanction aod support of the American
people, who are greatly incensed at the attempt to
establish upon their borders a new Kingdom.
** President ’ Roberts, in a recent address delivered in
Brooklyn, N. Y., upon ‘The Future of Ireland; the
Right to Self-Moverament and how to Attain it,” in-
dulged in some tall talk as to what the Fenians were
goiag to do, winding up as usual with an appeal for
“arms and uoiferins;” but the point of most interest
to us is where, after referring to the recent uprising in
Ireland, and reviewing the conduct ef the Stephens’
faction, he declared ** he would not be surprised te
learn, on waking up some fine moraing, that Uncle
Sam had’ taken the trouble of seizing Canada out of the
bands of England, as John Bull was already treading
on his corns in establishing an abortive kingdom so
near hisdomain. The friends of liberty should con-
tribute thier aid to the cause, and they might rest
assured that Colonel Roberts would not be slow in
ordering an advance on Canada. All they wauted
was arms and uniforms.” Now, while some may look
upon these statements of Roberts as coming from a
man for the sole purpose of defrauding simple people
out of their money, still they may not be altogether
destitute of truth, nor unworthy of consideration, ‘The
new Kingdom receives no favor from any class of
Americans, and we may rest assured that the same
species ot nenfral hostality which has been so success-
fully applied towards Mexico, will be brought into
operation against the Kingdom of Canada. It is this
reflection that attaches importance to the utterances of
President Roberts and the movements of the United
States Fenians at the present moment. The Fouians
will be used to work out the ** Munro Docirine ” what-
ever bovames of Ireland and her wrongs. We doulit
very much if Nova Scotia, Whose constitutiona! righty!
have been so shamefully berrayed, vould much regret

All who spoke on that occasion spoke well; but, in

so mach of the true patriotic spirit as the Honble, Mr.
Macaulay. ‘Thesy lines of Mr, leving’s, whatever nay

But caluly reticent, he holds his state.

Lhe wisdom of his words bis course commends:

Not as a partisan, but champion bold,

Kis patriot views with master mind unfold.

He, like Ulysses to divided Gtecks,

in words well-weighed, dispassionately speaks.

But when th’ occasion all his power demands,

In port, th’ ideal of a Chief he stands;

A sage, to counsel, and a Chief to lead

Lis patriot bands to Freedom's batile-field ;

Where, bound to holicast ties ** to do or die,”

The aged sire with stripling youth would yie

In valiant deeds; beat back the ruflian’s brand,

And strew with scoundrel duad th’ iavaded strand.

So. when of late, by Lust and Murder led,

The Fenian monsters filled our souls with dread,

is words, like touch Promethean in their sway,

Had power v inspirit half-informed clay,

From wold or glebe, or Wallace to draw forth,

And stamp the rudest soul with patriot worth,

Then thas, I thought, such words must Bruce haye

spoke,

When all the couryge otf his bands he woke,

Serried and firm, with one o'erwhelming rush

Th’ invading tyrant’s mighty power to crush.

My Scottish spirit owned the patriot sway,

And to it, freely thus, I heartfelt homage pay,

} ' To tas Eprrox ov tin Herarp,

Sir,—In looking cver certain numbers of the Summer-
side Journal, I observed letters sgned ‘A Fisherman,’
of Alberton, who thinks that the Government would
confer a great boon on the Island by granting a bounty
i on fish. Thie great fisherman and Albertonian oracle
/ would wish that the publie would eonsider hina to be an

individual who understands the fishing business from
oeginning to end, and also public letter writing to per-
lection. Ido not intend, Sir, to take up much of your
valuable space with remarks on the homespun lotiers of
A Fisherman.” Indeed, { would pass them unnoticed
only I think it a pity to allow sach a fellow to abandon
hia proper avocation, amd rash headlong into public
priat, where be has endeavored to figure conspicuously,
but failed in the attempt and placed kimself in an awk-
ward position, I would wish to draw him back again,
and place him in his proper position, end, Sir, if you
would only allow me a sinel! space in your very respect-
able journal, I presume I would straighton him and
leard him not to attempt what he is unable to perform.
“4 Fisherman” has the impndence to say that he has
never seen anything respecting the fisheriea in any of
our Island journals but what was looked as from a
wrong stand-point. Well, | suppose he thinks that he
has placed them om the right stand-point, and that all
persons who will peruse his puerile and ungraminatical
letters will learn the great art of fishing, of which, ao-
cording to cur Albertonian philosopher, P. E. Islanders
are ignorant. Now, f am sure our Island fishermen
must feel obliged te their advocate for tha manner in
which he apeaks of them. But I differ from ‘* A Fisb-
erman.” I am well aware that our ds!and boys, who
follow fishing, are as exper: at the business ay Nova
Scotians or Yankees, aud they generally carn good
wages, and, therefore, bave no need of a bounty. We
