How the Fenian Invasion Must End.
Our contemporaries are filling thoir columns
With vast display headinsra on "War," "The New
War," and other belligerent designations, for
tlio effort of the Fenians to invade the Canada.
The public look with Interest on every despatch,
and an opinion is bein? fastened on the commu
n Ity that the attack on Fort Erie is really the
Initiation of a new contest. Through the In
terest excited, and the attention paid to tho
effort, the popular mind is turned away from a
calm contemplation of what must, ncccsarllv,
be the issue of such an abortion a an attempt
to capture Ihi1 piovinces by an unrecognized and
insu8taliied body oi men banded toather as a
secret society. Let us not bo deluded with the
number of despatches, or the rumored size ot
the Invodinpf columns, but look dlapasonaly
at what reason must reveal to be the inevitable
lesult
The Brotherhood, if united, would be a power
ful body of men. If influenced by a single pur
pose, furnished with fundi, arm, ammunition,
and leaders, it would be capuble of reaching
Canada and holding Toronto for, guy, three
months. But even then their success would
-only lie as lone-l:ved as the time occupied in
transporting an army from Great Britain. We
do not say this as a depreciation of Irish
courage, for a braver race never lived; butjjwc
do say it because of the impossibility of feeding,
clothing, and keeping in subordination a vast
army of men whose very organization
is founded on lawlessness. If the Fenians
succeed in defeating the Canadian forces
in a stride engagement, then ttiat all th
British need do, is to stand quietly by and
let them ruin themselves. It will be the old
story of Banuockburn over again, and the
victors will once more disperse to despoil, and
be cut off in detail without difficulty. A single
success will be their ruin. If, on the othor
hand, they meet with a defeut, tlie result will
be a panic, for the invaders do not, like Wil.
li ah of Normandy, burn the vessels in which
they cross, but their insufficient means ot cross
ing the river or lake are carefully preserved in
case of disaster. The consequence of defeat will
be a general stampede lor the bouts. The fiv
who reach them will escape to the United States;
the many who fail will be shot down, captured,
tried, and probal.ly hung.
Nor can the Fenians themselves feel the least
Surprised or have the least ground lor indlgua"
tion if such be the reward of capture. It may
be patriotic tor tbem to deny that Great Britain
has a right to make laws for Ireland, but they
can have no su tb. ground for such a statement in
regard to Canada. In attacking that place they
seek not so much to free their native land as to
Cripple England. They go there as conspiring
revolutionists; if they succeed they are patriots,
if they fail they are folons, and deserve a felon's
death. And we predict that they will get their
deserts. From this it will be seen that any
Fenian setting out on this excursion to Uanuda
runs a great risk, absolves himself from all the
protection of the United States and every other
power, and if he be shot down without trial or
warning, there is none that can or will coin
plain. lie make6 himself his own law and pro!
tection; he has no Government; and must either
protect himself or be without defense.
Suppose, lor the sake of a supposition, that the
Fenians defeat the militia, a very likely event,
that they advance on Toronto, they capture the
city, and gain the grand object of their effort.
What then? Do they hope to have Montreal in
their possession, and will they scale the heights
of Abraham and seek to take Quebec? We do
not thiuk that even their daring will essay such
a wild assault. If in the serai-barbaric aire of
the art of war, when the "good Queen Bess" and
the heavy "blunderbuss" were the arm?, and can
non was as likely to explo le as be discharged,
the gallant Wolfe was just able to capture tho
cltv, what hope can the Fenians have when the
American Gibraltar is manned by thousands
lortified with all the impregnability of modern
fCience, and guarded by the Parrotl and Dahl
pren, the Minnie rille and sword bayonets ?
They might range the country, turn brigands
and murderers, be shot down singly aud de
clared "outlaws, but that could be their utmost
hope, and that could only last until forces ar
ri no from England.
The wienie," therefore, is a mad one. Con
ccived in folly, it will be executed in daring, and
terminate in destruction. We therefore warn
cur Irish citizens against participating in this
lolly, and having its strokes fall on them. Tne
Kii.PFENS wing is led bv one whom we believe
to lie a tritish spy; the Sweeney wins is off on
their wild flight; the O'Mahony branch have
wasted all thtir funds aud died. The wholu
Fenian oi saniation is exhau-ted. is a failure,
and had better be at once dissolved. Let its
members, instead of wasting their money tn
futile attempts to free Ireland, invest it iu
America M them learn a trade, not a drill.
Let them make this their home, seek to rise in
the si'Cial scale, send tor their relatives in the
old country, and tind, in their adopted land, a
peaceful, tree home, which is denied to them in
the Emerald Isle.
Democratic A flection lor Our Soldiers.
'Tee Memphis Avalanche heartily indorses the
following, which it credits to the South Caro
linian: "Again, it is insisted that, while we do honor
to the graves of the Confederate9, we should
treat the graves of Federals with like respect.
Absurd I Shall we adorn with wieutb ami gar
land the last resting-place of those who pillaged
i;r barns, burued our dwellings, and insulted
our mothers, wives, sisters, and daughters if Is
it ro be expected that a lady should honor the
memory of a man killed while robhing her hen
roust? If pra.in.! tor the souls of the damned
would lie oi any avail, they mirht have tho
.bei.elitof our prayers but honor them never!"
We commend the above, from good, sound
Democratic journals, to the Age, as a first-rate
text from which to preach the beauties of
IiEiSTEH Clymeb to the "bojs in blue."
The War Question in Eckope. Tho news by
the steamships Hermann and Marathon, which
urrived at New York yesterday, is more promts,
ing for a peaceful solution of the continental im.
broglio. A Congress of the leading powers was
to be held at Paris on the 25th ultimo, to discuss
the questions at issue. Meanwhile, military
preparations by Prussia, Austria, and Italy are
going on at an undiminished rate, and the
f hock of war, If it finally doe9 come, will bo of
the most territlc character.
A later arrival fails to confirm the peaceful
anticipations suggested above. War seems more
imminent than ever, and the financial situation
Js more aggravated.
A Commendable Southern Speech.
It gives us great pleasure to publish anything
from the South that affords evidence of an intel
ligent comprehension on the part of any of her
leading citizens of tho true solution of the pro
blem concerning her colored people. The efforts
of our Northern Democratic demagogues, for
rase party ends, to perpetuate and increase the
prejudices, born of slavery, against those un
fortunate people, are so persistent, so shame
less, so repugnant to all noble aud manly feel
ing, that it Is a real relief to tind a Southern
gentleman who, by the humane and statesman
like character of his sentiments, fairly shames
these reckless and unprincipled partisans.
A free dinne was recently given to tho negroes
near Colunbus, Ga. It was largely attended,
and a speech was made to the assembly by ex
Provisional Governor Johnson. From a report
of his speech we learn that he compare! them
to the descendants of Joseph in Egypt. Thev
had been reduced to slavery, and alter many
years were made fre. The ancestors of the
negro sold him; they were put to trial and kept
so; since, they have greatly increased l:i number
aud intelligence; after two hundred years of pro
bation, the negroes, by the fulness of time aud the
providence of Go.1, through tne instrumentality
of men, have gained their freedom, which
will remain to them and their descendants for
ever. He advised them to be industrious, frugal
and honest, aud to be careful about making con
tracts, and reduce them to writing, if possible,
and abide by them. Ho hud seen rapid advances
raadc to a higher civilization during the past
year. They should be charitable, care for the
aged, and build churches and school houses.
They should obey all the laws, ai.d not lake
redress upon thcmselvc. The civil courts were
opeu to them. He advised them to respect all
the legal authorities, and try to bring to light all
crime. The Government has declared their
freedom, and will maintain it. Their rights
would be protected. He hoped slavery would
be Boon removed from Brazil and other coun
tries, and the world would than unite for the
civilization of Africn. Two negroes spoke alter
Governor Johnson had finished.
Contrast these seubible, humane, statesman
like utterances of Governor Jounhon with the
vulgar and brutal "liigger-equality ' fanfaronades
of the Age, the New York Baity yews, or the
lievercnd Copperhead Ciiauncey Burnt !
If the Southern people generally, or even the
more intelligent portions of them, could bo
brought to tale the enlightened and common
sense view of the neero taken by Governor
Johnson, we should soon have no more trouble
on that score. Aud why should they not? Tae
negro is now free, and cuu never again be made
a slave. He is to remain iu the country. The
nonsense about colonizing him, or attempting to
separate him from the wl ite race, has had its
day. Everj body knows that it is impracticable
and will never be done. The question then
recurs, whether it is better for the South to have
these four millions of inhabitants kept in a de
graded, ignorant, and vicious condition a
seething substratum of society ready to burst
forth in disorder audjj crime or to have them
educated, elevated, and made valuable members
of the body politic ? Is it fo- the real interest
of the whole that any part should be degraded
and oppressed ? Is not education preferable to
ignorance, virtue to vice, thilitj to idleness?
It seems strange to ask such questions as
these In a country like ours, where everything
depends upon the virtue and intelligence of tae
masses. Were not the evidence daily placed before
our eyes, we could hurdly believe that there are
thoe who desire to thrust these millions down
rather than raise them up. The fact is only to
be explained by the wide-spread demoralization
of sentiment produced by the Ion? continuance
of the institution of slavery in this country.
That system demanded the ignorance and brutal
izatiou of its victims. The more the essential
manhood could be crushed out of them, the
better slaves they made. Hence, it is not sur
prisiue, alter all, thut those political partisans
who were so long the supple tools of the slave
power those unprincipled demagogues who
aoased themselves so utterlv in the dust at its
feet should now fail to comprehend the new
order of thmtrs that prevails iu our country.
They still cling to their old hallucinations.
They wort hip Dagon, though his form lies pros
trate and shattered before them. Thev see in
thp former slave only a chattel that by some
freak of fortune has got out ot his place. Tho
ideaof educatinghim, elevating him, aud making
him a valuable member of a free community, is
to them both absurd and abhorrent.
But such speeches as inis one of Governor
Johnson show that even at the South, among
her more thoughtful men, a juster ami more
liberal view is beginning to prevail. There,
where the colored people form so laige a pro
portion of the inhabitants, the simple truth that
they will be a great dal better and safer as
neighbors, laborers, and citizens, if educated
and elevated, is beeinuing to bo comprehended,
it is a favorable symptom. It is the legitimate
working of the idea of freedom. It reeomizes
the neressity ot fitting the negro for the brighter
and better destiny that opens before him.
Behold, too, the enlarging influence ot liberty
upon the mind. Governor Johnson's thoughts
and sympathies go out bejond his own uairow
circle beond even his own land. He learns
that humiin interests are one, and that the bless
ings of liberty are sweet ulike to all men. He
becomes an abolitionist, and hopes slavery will
soon be removed from Brazil and other coun
tries. He tecl" the vibrating of the "common
bond" which unites all men aud constitutes the
human brotherhood.
Let us refoice at. such things as these from the
South. Thev give promise of better davs. It U
net imoos'-ible thut even our Northern Demo
crats may vet be converted to a belief in the
salety and beneticence of tree institutions.
