Mr. McG‘ann's opening remarks. relative to the present condition, resources and prospects'of'vtho Institution, and his ex- planationsof the causes which operate to produce deprivations of the‘ senses deserve the most serious consideration. We can‘hope very little for the diminu- tion in the number of these unfortunates until the natural laws with respect to their existence are better known,â€" Unfortunately a lamentableand profound ignorance exists ; and if Mr. McGann’s forth coming book will act to dispel it, he will have conferred a public benefit. At firesept the accommodations _of the Institute are very inadequate to the necessity existing, but; it is gratifying to know that after next June it willre- ceive liberal support from the Govern- ment, and be thus enabled to extend its usefulness. In the meantime it must Jul'iVC ita Fuppor‘.‘ almost wholly from whale con- tributions which we hope will flow in freely in aid of those who have such strong claims on our sympathy.

V There is, however, we' regret to say, some prospect of disturbance 'in Toronto and elsewhere, on the approaching anni- versary of St. Patrlek. ' It is to be hoped that the authorities will take effi- cient measnres to preserve the peace; end perhaps the best way to do this would be to stop the contemplated pro- cessions altogether. The rights of private individuals should, of course, be respected, but a' too tender regard for their preservation should not be allowed to peril the public peace. ‘ Au invasion of this province in force fwould require such open military dis ‘play, and preparation, as would be in ‘ direct violation of the neutrality laws, land would not be tolerated. Of this we :have the distinct pledgepf the American Government. It is true that we hear rumors that such preparations are being really made; but the American press press has hitherto shown such counteri- ance to this disreputable swindle, and evinced such a readiness to do the dirty work of'puiiiing up and coloring its opâ€" erations, that its telegrams, got up for ismsationalcnds, are not to be depended ion. The idea of a private organization iwith funds and material noioriously in ‘ suificient to equip ten regiments, attem- ipting‘ the conquest of a hostile and thor ‘oughly defended province like this, is only fit to be compared to the mad scheme of liberating Iraland, which has brought so many to grief and ended in a fizzle- .As to the dangers to be apprehended from a plundering raid upon the frontier towns, we fancy that the force new on duty will inspire‘ such a wholsdme fear as will cause its prevention. Such an en- terprise will not pay .under present cir- cumstanees, and will probably be deferrâ€" ed until there is less risk of losing the present reputation for ferocity and valor which has cost so much talk to establish, Still, prevention is ghettex than cure and the course of the Government in calling out the troops, has not been adop- ted without reasonable :grounds, and will be amply justified by the good sense We are not of the opinion thata Fenian raid will be attempted, nor do we believe that if it be, it will have any serious consequences, save to the fool- hardy adventurers themselves. It is all very well to make sensation speeches, and endeavor to arouse the slumbering devotion of Yankee Ireland, to the pur- chase of more bonds: and we suppose ill exaggerations are as suitable for that purpose, if not more so, than any- thing truthful or sensible possible could be. But he would be credulous indeed, who would rely for a moment on the statements of men 01' money, which the noisy oraters of Jone’s “700d make use of to please their audiences or blind their dupes. The Expected Raid. Markham Council. SIR,â€"In my letter, dated Dec. 15th last, published in your useful “ Herald,” I stated that there was not knOWn any certain preventative of crime ~certainly the first most power- f'ul teacher is the parentâ€"then the school (if the juvenile ever attended school) teachers who, if discreet and dc termined, will seldom have much trouble to instill into the minds of their flocks, the requirements needed to insure their ‘ welfare and happiness. The school- master would do well by putting into their minds just notions 0t" coonomy, with a perspective View of the wants of old age. The true source cl" a vast amount of the sorrows and ills, of a town or a village, can be easily seen by a care- ful observer, but it is not so easily seen the best mode of curing ’or preventing them. However, now let me into the hotels, though it is the fashion now-a- days, to lay all crimes and misdemeanors on the shoulders ot’ the Tavern Keepers which is unfair and bad policy,â€"â€"thc present system of granting tavern licen- ses is exorbitant in cost, is dishonest in principle, is one sided, and is too often tinctured with favouritism and politics. Let us have free trade in tavernsjt will work wellâ€"it would decrease drink- ‘ ing, and bar-room rioting, drinking and fighting being twin brothersâ€"cannot be ‘ carried out in a workman-like manner, without lockers on and excitement.â€" Few, yes very few men can or will drink for any length of time, if alone, the late brave Tom Sayers and Heenan would , never have 'fought their great fight if , they had been marched into our Canadian . bush and left aloneâ€"the required noisy lockers on not being there to bolster their pride or conquest, nor cheer their 'manly frames to “the combat. As an honest experiment, let there be free trade in Tavern Licenses for one or two years,â€"let every applicant have license on furnishing ample security for his own good conduct and the good government of his house“, This plan will appear, wild to cool-minded temperance followers, ~â€"its not soâ€"if calmly, honestly, and sobberly Viewed through the cold water medium. The. most dull and short- sighted temperance zealots cannot avoid seeing tint the present licensing sys-; tem works badly, like the sand built“ Main Law. Too much praise cannot be given to the men of Wisdom who enacted the piece meal polling places for general, elections, the plan divided angry voters into small parties, thereby preventing doting and too often blood-shed. The increase of Taverns would have the like good effect, for illustration, suppose a town had five Taverns and twenty f1 di-nnkai'ds,â€"nien who drink daily, fighbe almost daily. and pitch glasses at each 1‘ other now and againâ€"again, suppose I J t ( t c those Ilummmw~qrmntity of the’ choicess reading matter of various kinds, evidently culled with the greatest care, and wholly unobjcct’ibn’ablé. It is perhaps, not generally known in this County, that Campbell’s Geography â€"one of the best school books on the sub- ject extavt, is now an’ahthorized work. We hope to see it soon supersede every other. It is eminently teachable both on matter and maps, and will be a. real boon to the Teacher. We are glad to see that this’enterpris- ing ferm is about to eXtend the series" of educatmfial works published by them, by the additlon of a set of school readers, which are now in press. The wants of such books ig greatly felt. The present national Readers, are in many respects behind the age, and cannot be much longer. tolerated. By an advertisment in another column it will be seen that a Public Meeting will be held at Dolmage’s Hall, Rich- mond Hill, on Monday evening next, for the purpose of discussing the feasi- bility of extablishing some extensive manufacturies in‘the village, with a View to the general interest. The project is most commendable and time very oppor- tune. We hope a liberal public .spirit will be shown, unity of action, is the first requisite.

One of them was that an at- tempt had been made to assassinate the Governorâ€"General, An extra. annouocing the fact was issued from one of the newspap- er offices, and caused a greapsénsation; but a telegram was shortly afterwards received from Montreal correctng the re- port and stating that nothing had been heard of ic in that city.

A speeial'despateh to the New York World from Albany, on thellth March, says :â€"â€"â€"" I have just received some very important news through private sources from Burlington, throwing considerable light on the inevement of the Fenians in that vicinity. Uniforms for fifteen thousand men, and two thousand rifles of the very best pattern, have been trans- ported quietly during the last terr days ' from New York city and from Troy to Burlington, Vermont, where they now re- main concealed, awaiting the advance of the Fenian host. It is more than possi- ble that these arms will see the light on St. Patrick's day when there is to be a grand demonstration of some kind made by the Irish population in that locality. Arms in abundance are said to be stored at Detroit, Sandusky, Buffalo, Ogdens, Platttburg, and Lontpelier Three com- panies of Fenian volunteers have been organized in TSurlingrton for service in Canada. An old oflicer who has Seen service in Mexico has command of the battalion. received trustworthy intelligence from Montreal that there was a secret meeting of the leaders of the city, last Friday night, in a building not a hundred yards from the Bonsecoars market, in which it was resolved to give every aid possible to the invaders. Out of the 85,000 members ‘of that order in Canada, it is stated that 25,000 will take up arms as soon as Sweeny’s advance reaches Canadian soil. Many of the Southern officers who have been residing in Canada for the last two years, have gone to New York for the purpose of offer- ing their services to General Swee- ny.

The Vermont Fenians have ‘ MAN ROBBED NEAR PRINCE ALBERT the same Town had ten Taverns and twenty drunkards, and as every tavern keeper has his own idle supporters, by the increase of Taverns from five to ten, each tavern would have only two steady drunkards instead of four. An increase in the number of taverns neuld no more increase drinking than an increase in polling boothes would increase voters; Any plan that‘ will prevent men from congregatng in great numbers in a bar- room, will prevent drinking, fighting, and glass breakingâ€"the necessary fuel of a fight would not be there, namely, lookers on, idle cheerers, and Whiskey, loungers High duties or acts of Parlia-~ ment will never prevent drunkenness. This money down and measure system would act as a preventative to excessive drinking. Every tavern keeper ought to be enahled by law to collect drinking debts. Is it anything short of legal fraud to take the tavern keepers money for license to sellliquor, at the some time preventing the seller from collecting his rights. Tavern keepers don’t find their liquors in the ditch, though they often find their customers there l Tavern keepers have heavy household expenses, to accommodate the public with their many minds. No tavern should be al- lowed a public room within the main building, thereby all party meetings in bar-room would be in away modified, for nearly all, if not all such meetings commence and terminate with more or less drinking. Neither should music or singing be allowed within a. bar-room. for music, either by fiddles or glasses often prevent a. worthy man’s enrlvde- parture to his own fireside. Neither should gambling of any kind or descrip- tion. under any circumstances, whatever, he allowed in taverns. Every village ought to have a tavern inspectorâ€"n real One, not a shamâ€". Umvcyer bad drinking morals are now7 they were worse, for some years ago it was no uncommon sight to witness a whole family taking breakfast or supper, with whiskey for a ‘sub‘stitnte for tezzaor coffee. This was early ' trainihg for an early life of crime find-wickedness with its vile‘ and disgraceful finishâ€"a tumble into a suicide’s grave. Further, no Tavern Keeper should be allowed to'plaee his deeanter on the barâ€" bourd, but should he made provide him- ‘solf with pewter measures and deal out, his beer and spirits accordingly.

TELEGithILâ€"«Since the re‘ turn of the Great Eastern in the month of August last a. series of very interesting ex- periments have been conducted byMr. Will- oughhy Smith, of the Gotta Percha Works, for testing the insulation of cables.’ Within the last few days Mr. Smith’s system was tried on board the Great Eastern. at Sheer- ness, in the presence of Mr. Grooeh, M.P.; Mr. R. A. Glass, Capt. Emil-arson, Mr' Cyrus W. Field, Mr. Lalimér Clark, Mr. Fother- gill Cooke. M." Canning, Mr. De Sauiy. 550. Mr. Smith's system, according to the expla- nation ()l'Mr. Latimer Clark, devises a means by which a pert'e *tly continuous test of the insulation is maintained throughout the voy» age. so that any loss of ins [lation or solution of the conductor is instantly detected on board, even during the time that messages are being; transmitted from ship to shore, or vice imam. Theimp'n'tance of this will be best understood by supposing that the cable in the after tank of the Great Eastern. which is quite close to the paying out machinery, was injured by either desi gu or accident, the fault would he discovered instmttaneouly in the testing room ,aud the paying out would he stopped bei'ore it were possible that the injurel portion of the eath could pass over the payinyout wheel astern into the sea.
