The consequence was that evervbidv breathed more ireely, and laitRhod at the fears ol those who mill persisted in attaching im- tortnnce to the Fenian orcanizition. The Gov ernment, however, were n:t disarmed of dunyer, and retained rue service tmiitia on itie rrontier. Tbe report of (cncral Sweeney's and Colonel Itoberte1 speeches av BulVal , promisintr beiore the cunt of Mav shine to conquer a certain ter- r.tory, is believed to apply to Canada, and as a matter ol course new anxiety is created. I will not affirm that there is excitement, but that great anxiety is manifested on account of the fe wet-ncy-KohcrtB movements no one dare venture to doubt. AN OBDKB FROM GENERAL MITCnEI.L. . The DroccedineB of the Fenian meetinz in Butlolo uppeared in the proviuci U press-on Sat urday morning, untl 1 am informed tnat on Saturday afternoon a despatch was received Irotu General Mitchell by the commandant here to perfect the military orcunizaiions and have ins command "aiwfts roaay." TDK BEDftNTABY MlMTIA TO ARKS. The sedentary militia of Catuida is composed ol tho?e liable to military duty who are not already in the service militia, from which the details nave neen maae oi tnoso wno are now 6ervintr as froutier pickets. This force perhaps numbers 160,000 men, who are called out lor muster once per year, and are only called into service when needed, as in the Kebullion of 1837. It acems, from a circular that has just been privately circulated among tho cadets who have praduatcd at the military schools, that the Government intend to throw this force into the Held in view of tho movements of the Senatorial Fen lane. The city press, for some catne probably to prevent alarm has not referred to this circular, and it has been reserved lor an obscure and obscene theet ht Woodstock to make the an nouncement and give the purnortot thecircular, dated January 10, ordeiing all tne cadeU to stUe wuettier tney can taKc commands in tne seden tary militia, immediately to bo called out lor active duty. . The circular doe3 not indicate how munv of the setnicntary militia will be put in the lield, but Irom its contents it fa evi dent tliut the Government ha3 private in forme tion that warrants this extr.tordinnvv addi tion to the item ol "defenses." When the order calling cut this loree is propaeated, I apprehend there will be a general consternation and such an upriFii'g.of the people that Toui Sweeney will not tilhtia tne guost ot a chance lor limiting Canada a base unless he strikes quickly and hard, li he contemplates a mot nine visit to Preseott, and a railway rido to Ottawa with a few thousand men to secure the persons of Darcv McCee.

DEFENSES. The Government and tho military authorities are as busy as bees strengthening the forts on the (runtier, erecting new torts and making Kingston, Toronto, and Montreal "hard to take." These iacty. coupled with tho pretty well-accredited rumor that all the banks havo sent their surplus f-pecie to gnrrisoned and fortified points, show which way the wind blows. In view of these movements I am satisfied there is fun or work ahead. The reputation which General Tom Sweeney had in Sherman's army was that he was a man who talked but lit tle a man of deeds who, when he declared his determination to do a thing, would do it; though his satanlc malesty stood in his path. Sweeney Erouoiaeg to conquer a territory before May. If e does that it must be done within a month, whether that territory be Canada or Goat Island. TROOrS EN KOCTK TO THS BORDER. Toronto, January 31. I briefly telegraphed you to-day the particulars of the new Fenian bcure. The Government Is now hurrying troops to the frontier from London and Hamilton. Sixty rounds of ball cartridge have been Issued to volunteers and regulars at London, Toronto, Hamilton, Hnd other points. From their move ments, and private information I have received, it ia evident a raid or invasion on the western border is near, and that the time has come for me to repair to the point where the raid will occur. I leave here to-morrow for lort Huron, where I shall remain as long aa there is a pos sibility of that being the point of inte rest. THE THREATENED POINTS. For three or four days past there have been strange and exciting rumors afloat as to Fenian combinations on the f rontier and the intentions of the Canadian Government; but no reliance was placed on them until yesterday, when a despatch passed over the wires stating that the 8weeneyi.es were collecting on the western fron J tier. Yesterday the military forces all over the upper province were on the q'ti vive, and a por tion of them are now moving to the front. The general impression in the Cunadian mind is that a small band of Fenians are preparing a raid upon Barnia or Windsor, lor the purpose of embroiling the Uuited 8tates and Eugland in difficulties that may result in war between the two countries. THE CANADIAN HEAD CENTRE. I saw the Head Centre of Canada to-day, but he keeps very "mum." AN ADDRESS TO BB ISSUED TO THE CANADIAN FENIANS. An address to tbe Canadian Fenians is to be issued to-morrow, and I will endeavor to get a cony ana teiegrapn or muii it to yon. The Govcri.meut are calling out nearly all the militia as last aa thev can arm them. The in lormaticn upon which they act baa been partly outainea irom ucncrai Bweeney a insnector Due- pan, a bar-ioom loater of New York, who was sent to Canada on a tour of inspection to esti mate tbe itreneth of the British forces, etc., but who "turned traitor," as the Canadian Fenians say, ana gave the Government lull information as to 8weney'g deslgne.

The Iribur.e's Wash ington correspondence says that the immediatj withdrawal of the French troops from Mexico may be regarded as certain. Lcttcrn have been received confirming the news that an Extra r dinary Commissioner has been sent to Mexico to make the necessary preparations lor the evacua tion. The Emperor no longer insists on the re cognition of Maximilian by (he United States, but is satislled with the renewed promise that the Government of tho United States will pre serve the strident neutrality with regard to Mexico. Whether an African force, however, is to supply the place of the departing French troops U not stated. IMPORTANT NEWS FROM MEXICO.

Letters have lust been received here from Paris, confirming in every important particular the information con cerning tbe intentions ol the Emperor ot France with teeard to Mexico, which 1 gave you some time ago. Tho Emperor ia rendy to withdraw his forces fiom Mexico with the least possible delay, do mnudina nothing of t:.e Government oi tbe United States except that it meanwhile remain neutral between the belligerent parties, accord ing to the assurances frequently tfiven and re iterated by the Government during the past thiee years. The Emperor of France does not ask lor the recognition of Maximilian, nor insist upon any other treaty stipulations. The statement put lorth by the Paris Pre.ise, that an Extraordinary Commissioner has been sent to Mexico to make preparations lor the evaluation, is continued by the letters here re ceived. I have good reasons tor believing that the State Department is already in possession of oilicial information to this ctlect, and it is ti be hoped thut such information will soon be laid beiore the public. The statement here given came from a most trustworthy source, and may be looked upon as absolutely trustworthy. Kew York Tribune.

THE UNITED 8TATES AND PRESIDENT JtJABUZ. from La Nation, December 18. The latebt news from the United States de clares tbat General Logan has declined to accept the position of Plenipotentiary to tbe Juarist Government, which was ottered him by the wasnwgion caDinet. Had any other person been designated to occupy that portion, we should have Inquired whether his Excellency the Plenipotentiary would have proceeded to meet face to face the lawlul President of the Mexican Kepublio. Let us examine the situation with perfect im partiality. The United Stales Governmenthas lust broueht to a close, with a successful result, a prolonged ana wooay war waved lor tne purpose of en forcing tbe respect due the law. It is therefore to bo supposed that this same Government, aa rinptrloits as I is powerful, has no desire to lg to bv its f reign policy the prinninle hit ii i bh cuiiFeu to prevail ui nome oy eaenuueu uniitin bered. At pr sent tbe Government of Senor Juarez ha er aed to exist lemillv and defaott In truth, its const tutional career closed on tho 31'hdny oi November last. His power not havi g been cmtlrmed bv an eleetion. a ordained ty tho republican constitution of 1657, Senor Jiurez must pive way to the acting President of" the Supreme Court of Justice, once a member of his paiiy, who. having encountered tne same ttiir"ra .li are, has ntieneth eiven oroots ot bis adhe rens to the principles represented by the con- ermmon ot irt.w. iuttend of obevine ihelaws which bo pretenis to UDhold, Senor Juarez has promulgated de crees which declare htm to be still in power, when in the same country lives the man who houlJ now occunv his Dosition. Bv such action he ienores the constitution ol the lan J, and by ignoring that constitution he destrovs with his own nana the titles ot ins lawlul existence as President. The iusticc of this statement was set forth at the cl()i-e ol Juarez's ollicut'. career, br the citi zen who Hoonld have been invested with the PrepidetiCy; that citizen was Senor Don Manuel Ruiz, Acting I resident ot the Supreme Court, tenor IUuz has just retired to private hie, having Uttered a solemn protest against the, a-ta ot the ex-l mident. and having demonstrated that the ct nstitut lotiul decrees having boeu overruled by the said Juarez, the official proceedings of the cx-iTesiaent are nun and void. The newspapers have published the protest. B' given below, and tne statements therein con- ttii.ed cannot emanate from a more reliable source, be.ne made pubi c by a man who hai clung to the Republican Government to the very close ot its existence, having endured as many hardships as Juarez himself. xne suDstance ot tins declaration is mat tne Government ot Juarez has fallen by limitation of his lease of oflice, and moreover, been over thrown bv its own acts: its death occurred on the 30th day of November, 1865, the last day of its legal power, uesidee, it was destroyed Dy those very men who viola'ed the Constitution which had been their banner: since then it has neither existed legally nor defaoto.. we nave confined ourselves to tnese Dnei and lucid observations, penned without bitlerness and witnoui anger, befieving tnem worthy tne cousideratljn of all American citizcu3 of good faith.

The New York Tribune this morning says: "Tlie week closes upon an unsatisfactory state of affairs in mercantile circles. Instead of a large increase of trade, buyers are doing next to nothing, aud demanding still lower prices. Domestic goods are ollerod nt prices equal to 6 per cent, decline; but are still neglected. The movement of goods into bond is large, and importers and jobbers are steadily being loaded with commodities. From the factories the advices aie that stocks ore increasing and orders declining. The West does not pay Dromptly, Irom the simple fact of inability. Under declin ing prtoee for farm produce, the small storekeep ers' bills are not paid, the jobbers of the Western cities arc crippled, and their creditors in the Atlantic cities brought to a point where their paper lacks buyers at 1015 per cent, per month. These results are the natural effect ot the end ot the Rebellion, and ot the termination of the expenditures of the Government Tne end is not yet, and those merchants, jobbers, and con sumers who are most prudent now, will be the safest as the season advances and lower prices made, under the inevitable contraction of the cunency."
