aid to be over now that the United States have
ntcrfcred. It bears a strong family likeness to
ts predecessor of 1800, although in some re-
pects better managed. The preceding feint of

urncd up, is precisely like the feint of March,
800. The real attack on the 25th of May was
iwn brother to the Sunday evening on the 1st
it June, 1800.
There was the pamo garnering oi the clans at
fclalono and Buffalo, the same general cleaning
tut of restaurants along the railway line, the
fame tumultuous advance into Canada for a few
(yards, followed by a neutrality proclamation,
fihe arrest of the leader, a short skirmish, and a
most ignoble and disorderly flight. And so long
s there are gullible chambermaids, so long will
reland be "liberated by flank movements on
iinchinbrook, by massacre of poultry, and by
onfiscation of stray table cutlery, without any
idee consideration as to whether the hens and
poons are on one side of the line or the other.
In one respect this raid has been rather more
succceslul tu an us predecessor tno talkative
leaders kept rather more quiet than is their
wont, and so got a good start.
Generally summed up, the results are small.
The Fenians did a little a very little plunder
ing, burned a house or two, were badly punished
by the volunteers and home-guards, lost seven
Or eight killed and some twenty wounded, and
then incontinently took to to their heels, strew
ing the roads with breech-loaders, uniforms,
and other impediments to their illirut. The
Canadians will be put to an expense, directly,
of $100,000 or so, but beyond loss of time, de
rangement of business, considerable inconve
nience, and some damage to property on the
ironticr, a lew 6iignt wounds, and an able
bodied scare, they have not suffered The
volunteers came out enthusiastically and in
good number, despite the universal distrust
which they feel toward the niggardly and job
bing bureau which manages them. Home guards
were formed in the cities to replace them, and
independent companies mustered alter tno man
ner of Concord and Lexington in the districts
directly menaced. It was demonstrated to the
ample conviction ot every one, save intentional
tools and Knaves use toe t enlau tile and leaders,
that Canada can successfully resist any attack
made upon her, and that the invaders have to
expect no sympathy from the people among
whom they come.

plan is to try email cavalry raids on outlying

ate lamentable failure, involved in the attack
upon the British territory, had been brought
.bout by those to whom the organization
intrusted the sacred duty of watching, waiting,
and preparing for an opportunity to aid the
oppressed people of Ireland to regaiu their
rights, then, indeed, those who have undertaken
this work might hang their heads in shame aad
despair of success. But the true state or the
ruse is otherwise. However much we may de-
ilore the evil consequences of the usurpations

alnable war material, and the sacrifice of a
land opportunity as well aa oi the result oi
years of patient toil and preparation the Issue
of this movemcnthas demonstrated the propriety
of the action of the legitimate authority of the
reman Brotherhood, who warned the people not
to be drawn into an attempt which was never
sanctioned by them, because it had not been based
upon preparations sufficient to warrant the ex
pectation oi success, But while the laiiure ot
this expedition has proved the wisdom of those
who foresaw the disastrous results, it has also
proved the readiness of the Irish people to
make every sacrifice that could be demanded of
them upon even the bare chance of advancing
in any way the cause of their country. The
patriotism they have exhibited needs only con
centration upon the object to be attained to
develop a power which nothing can oppose: but
that power can only be successfully applied by
means of thorough organization and obedience
to the rules, upon which the stability of all or
ganizations depends.
The past history ot the fenian urotnernoou
teaches that all the evils from which it has suf
fered, and the losses thereby entailed upon the
cause ol Ireland, have flowed trom departure
from this rrinclnlc. and from resistance to the
laws which the prople themselves had made for
their government. To remedy these evils and
obviate the danger of their repetition, an imme
diate return to that principle ot obedience and
discipline, in which alone safety can be found,
is absolutely necessary. The members of the
organization are therefore required to comply
with the provisions of the constitution, and
place their circles forthwith in direct communi
cation with the central office of the brotherhood.
Measures have been taken to secure, as far as
possible, the property of the organization from
loss or destruction, and the results, as soon as
ascertained, will be communicated officially.
in the meantime the members ot the i enlau
Brotherhood should bear in mind that as the
attempt of General O'Neill upon the Canadian
territory was undertaken against the author
ity of the Brotherhood, its failure cannot be
iecognizcd as a defeat of the national organi
zation, and that the efforts which England has
been compelled to put forth to meet this attack,
ill-timed and ill-advised as it was, only showed
how much she would have to dread from a com
bined and well-matured movement of the Irish
people under competent military leaders.

may have postponed for a short period the day
of Ireland s deliverance; but the 6acred duty
of accomplishing that deliverance can never
be ignored by our people; it shall not now be
abahdoned even for a day by those who have
put their hands to the work, and the events of
the past few months prove conclusively that
neither knavery nor statecraft can avail to pre

The Anniversary of the Oxford Presbyterian
Church Sabbath School took place yesterday
afternoon, and was a very spirited affair as well
as a most decided success. The pastor of this
Broad street enterprise, Iter. H rank L. Uobblns,
evinced his usual enthusiasm and appreciation
of the interesting and novel exercises. The
singing, under the leadership of Mr. T. Raw-
lings, was much better and more artistic than is
cenerallv found in the schools of this cltv. the
Scriptural recitations, led by the superinten
dent, were prompt and unanimous, and every
other feature of this fourth anniversary occa
slon exhibited admirable taste and great labor
and preparation. From the secretary's report
we learn that during the past year fourteen of
the pupils have joined the church, and one
death occurred, mere are 44 classes in the
school and 581 scholars, with an average at
tendance of 33 teachers and 283 scholars. The
scholars recited 24,289 verses of Scripture to
their teachers. A large addition has been made
to the library, numerous improvements have
been made, and the operations of the school
greatly extended since the preceding annlver
sary, so as to accommodate the rapid increase
in the scholars seeking admission to the school.

Despatch to the Associated Press.
Washington, May 30. The decoration cere
monies at Arlington Cemetery to-day were very
impressive. The graves are upon the old Ar
lington estate, at one time the property and
residence of General Robert E. Lee, the Rebel
chieftain. The ceremonies consisted of a prayer
by the Rev. Dr. Newman, an original poem by
ex-Lieutenant-Governor Cox, of Maryland, the
singing of the grand choral Eln Fate Burg ist
unscr Gott, and an oration by General John A.
Logan. The chorus was rendered by 500 voices,
accompanied by the Marine Band of Washing
ton, and was strikingly effective. The entire
ceremonlea were under the direction of the
Grand Army of the Republic, of which General
Logan is commander-in-chief. The only draw
back to the celebration was the damp condition
of the ground, arising from the recent con
tinued rains, but the weather, although the sky
was clouded, was warm and pleasant. The fol

Goneral IOKan's Oration.
Fellow-citizens and Comrades: Another year
has rolled away into the deep bosom of eter
nity, carrying with it all its joys and heartaches,
all its pleasures and pains. Another year nave
our heroic dead slumbered in their graves, while
we have been enjoying the boon which they
have purchased with their lives. The day has
arrived which first was dedicated by the Grand
Army of the Republic to the memory of their
shun comrades, and soon cneeriuuy and univer
sally adopted by the loyal American people, to
bow before their sacred shrines. Silence, per
haps, would better befit such an occasion than
all the words a mortal tongue can pronounce, for
great thoughts and emotions of the soul disdain
the thraldom 01 language.
Yonder sleeps the Father of our Country, who
struck from our hands the shackles of foreign
allegiance and oppression! Hero rest those
who sealed tne covenant 01 ireeuom witn tneir
blood, and broke asunder the chains and fetters
of internal bondage and slavery 1 Can we for
get those dead who perished to save us and
ours from defeat and misery forget the mar
tyrs of freedom, who offered their own lives
upon the altar of liberty? Nol never, while
memory retains her powers or the heart beats
with a single impulse of love and gratitude !
Comrades, can we forget those partners in the
toils and hardships of war who fell at our side,
and with their fast-failing breath whispered
dying messages of love in our ears for the dear
ones at home ? No ! no ! those dying words are
links of sympathy which no time can sever!
When many a subsequent incident of our lives
shall have been swept away in the ocean of the
past, those dying accents will ring as clear in the
recesses of our memory as if they were but of
yesterday. And although the forms in those
graves are mouldering to dust in 6ilent gloom,
their features are chiseled upon the tablets of
our hearts, and there we shall keep them
changeless and indelible until our pulses cease
to beat forever.
Let no one imagine that these comrades are
forgotten because their forms are hidden beneath
the ground. This Memorial Day, on which we
decorate their graves with the tokens of our
love and affection, is no idle ceremony with us
to pass away an hour; but it brings back to our
mind in all their vividness the fearful conflicts
of that terrible war in which they fell as victims.
This demonstration with us is no mere formal
act, obliterated as soon as we leave this sacred
spot. It is a holy ovation when we strew our
floral offerings upon the graves and freshen them
with the dew of our tears. Each solemn tear
thus dropped in sympathy upon this cold sod
swells anew our hearts with indignation against
the hand of treason that dipped its weapons in
their blood.
Nor are we alone in our emotions. The aged
father, as he poses his wreath with quivering
hand upon the mound that covers his beloved
son, mourns with heavy heart. The lonely
mother, kneelirg by the grave of her darling
boy, recalls, in faithful remembrance, that face
once buoyant with health, that form once the
staff of her widowhood, and weeps with us in
silent bitterness. The sisters, gathering around
the last resting-place of a dear brother, once
the joy and pride of their heart, the support and
defense of their lives and honor, link-their grief
with ours.
Surely this Is a day of deep solemnity; a day
on which the nation lays aside the garments of
busy life and fashion, and, attired in the weeds
of mourniBg, gathers around the graves of her
fallen sods, and laments with bitter tears over
her loss.
And these tears, shed in true affection for the
sleeping heroes, and in gratitude for the sacri
fice they have rendered for our welfare, are
more precious than the richest diamonds and
rarest pearls deposited in the ancient catacombs.
Let us, then, all unite in the solemn feelings
of the hour, and tender with ' our flowers the
warmest sympathies of our souls ! Let us revive
our patriotism and love of country by this act,
and strengthen our loyalty by the example of
the noble dead around us.
Throughout the broad compass ef our land
to-day vast concourses of true men and women
are voluntarily assembled to pay deserved
homage to the nation's heroic dead, and to gar
land llieir quiet tombs with nature's jewels, as
an appropriate tribute of respect and gratitude.
But why is it that the great masses on this
day pass by many graves, the occupants of
which they nave loved and honored in life, and
with a singular unanimity seek our soldiers'
graves alone? The answer of the heart rushes
11 n to the lins in the simple but Dathetic re
sponse: "They fell in defence of our comnaon
country, for the preservation of our free Gov
ernment, and the perpetuation of our national
unity."
Will be who comprehends the meaning of the
phrase "My country he in whose breast
spark of patriotism burns asK lor a reason
more ample than this ?. O ye nohlo dead 1 ye
tainted martyrs ! what a weight, what a depth
of meauiuer that simple phrlse, "My country."
had for you! Ye measured its depth with your
lives; ye counted its value with the drops of
your blood. Let not fttm try to survey the
length and the breadth of these words who
thinks of his country only as of the market for
his bargains ! Let not him aspire to appreciate
them whose idea aennes his country as the mere
province which owes him office of honor and
profit! Let not him assume to understand their
meaning who considers a dishonorable peace
preferable to a dearly-bought victory; not him
who would rather shake Hands with a living
coward than weep for a dead hero: not him
who loves comfort and ease more than truth and
justice!
These notjie dead slumbering in these hal
lowed grounds, and many thousands of like
martys scattered over the wide area ol onr land.
have listened to their country's outcry in the
lime 01 iicr neeo; mey nave answered the call
for help in the moment of her peril, and they
have offered themselves in the hour of gloom.
What a gathering it was!
"Fast as the fatal symbol flies,
In arms the huts and hamlets rise;
From wiadlnR glen, from upland brown,
They poured each hardy tenant down.
Ts'or slacked the messenger his pace,
He showed the sisrn, he named the place;
And pressing forward like the wind,
Left clamor and surprise behind.
The fisherman forsook the strand,
The swarthy smith took dirk and brand,
With chained cheer, the mower blithe
Left In the half-cut swathe his scythe;
The herds without a keeper strayed,
The plongh was In mid-furrow stayed,
The falconer tossed his hawk awav,
The hunter left the stair at bay ;
Prompt at the signal of alarms,
Each son of Alpine rushed to arms;
80 swept the tumult and affray
Along the margin of Achray."
Such was the rising of this people all over the
land. The roll of the dead then opened Its
mges, and with terrible swiftness the victims of
bur long years of bloody strife filled the volumi
nous annals of death. "Dead on the slippery
decks ! dead by the camp-fires at night ! dead
in the smoke-cloud of battle ! and dead in the
murderous prison-pen!" Long rows of graves
and deep streams ol blood marked the line of
march, and tears watered the hearthstones of
numberless homes during the fearful struggle.
let onward, steadily onward, tne noble
column moved towards the centre of rebellion
and the cradle of treason. Undaunted by re
verses, they carved a road through defeat to
victory, and unchecked by misfortune they
swept away every obstacle. Every vacant space
caused by the carnage of battle was filled by
another brave warrior, who bade defiance to
death, until at last the beam of hope shone
through the clouds of smoke, and the bright
rays of victory cheered the loyal hearts amidst
the scenes of agony and horror.
At last the bloody drama was ended, and the
jubilant shout of a nation, redeemed by the
brave, re-ecnoed irom tne starry concave over
the land ot the free. At last the Union was
saved, and the old ship of state that had entered
the rempest In the most perilous moment, and
under the discouraging scorn of foreign rivals,
who wished to see her go down beneath the
breakers.of Rebellion, floats as proudly as ever,
and waves her glorious colors to the breeze.
Aghast, the disappointed spectators stood like
hungry wreckers, in wistful shame, when they
saw the final conquest of our gallant, though
fratricidal foes. They had hoped the endan
gered vessel, tossing between the reefs and
shoals, would sink, and they could plunder some
of her scattered lragments. ine storm and
waves beat high, the captain perished, and
many of the undaunted crew fell at their post:
yet the noble craft weathered the most frightful
blasts, and now rides more proudly than ever
on the smiling ocean 01 prosperity. Whenever,
amid the fearful surges, the lofty pennon kissed
the crest of the waves, stout hearts again bore it
alolt. The vortex which we escaped swallowed
legions of our best comrades; yet Immortality is
their lot; and when the reveille ot resurrection
calls them from their resting-places, we hopo,
touching their elbows, to pass with them oir
last review.
He who holds the destinies of nations in Ills
hand has permitted us to see the termination of
the struggle, lie nas granted us the unspeak
able blessing that, after the hours of danger and
repeated humiliation, we should enjoy the
glory of victory, the triumph of our national
honor, and the blissful peace of freemen. The
anticipations of the most sanguine friends of
our cause have been more thon realized ; the
framework of our Government has been re
stored in all its firmness and beauty ; the cancer
which had crept Into our national health has
been eradicated ; the evils of the past have been
cured, and ample measures have been taken for
our future welfare and permanent safety.
Herculean was thd task, bnt the valor of our
people was equal to the dignity and magnitude
of the crisis. Providence strengthened the
band of our martyred President when he penned
the proclamation of emancipation, which for
ever wiped from our national escutcheon the
dark spot of slavery, aad a new impetus was
imbued into- tne rrnns ot our wearied troops.
almost amounting to inspiration. The song of
freedom sounded in clearer notes, and ran along
the lines of blue, almost drowning the cannon's
thunder and the battle's din, until it ended in
the glorious paan of triumph.
The soldier's armor was laid aside, and ioy
fully we resumed the civic "toga" as soon as
peace, sweet peace, once more reigned in our
blessed land. A double wreath 01 Honor, a
double crown of glory, awaited us who were
mercifully spared to return to our homes and
families. Thankful prayers rise to the throne
of the Almlcbty from every loyal heart when.
every year, we gather around the tombs of these
noble martyrs to embalm afresh their memory
in our souls; bitter tears betray our sorrow that
they cannot share with us our joys and blessings,
as they have done so faithfully our dangers and
trials. Would that we could do more! Bat
the wish is vain, for, as the poet sings:
"Not there they sleep I not there they rest J
Karth here but holds her own ;
Their spirits to celestial climes have flown,
And have immortal grown
In that fair world where death is never known;
In that bright world of light,
Beyond our mortal sight,
Where love brings endless days, with blessings in
finite."
Let us, therefore, while we offer these obla
tions, renew our pledge of fait u to our union:
Let us renew our vows for the protection of
liberty and equal rights ! Let ns revive our
determination to stand oy our country against
any and every foe, foreign or domestic, in war
or in peace ! The dead who sleep in the bosom
of the earth or beneath the ocean waves hear
our vows. They have helped us to erect that
erlorious superstructure of universal freedom
and equal rights upon the foundation of our
Republic, and have cemented it with their
heart's blood.
Let us complote the grand design and make
our country truly the world's "Temple of
Liberty." Rapidly and bravely the work goes
on, and the nations of the earth stand amazed
at our progress. They wonder how our people
could emertro from the smoke of battle and the
clash of arms, like a young giant, with powers
unimpaired. The vitality of our nation, her
buoyancy and elasticity of life, are beyond their
comprehension.
With every garland of affectionate remem
brance which we place upon a grave.iei us repeat
our pledge, that never shall we be untrue to the
principles for which they fought, and that we
never bhall cease to labor for the noble cause for
which they died. And when we have finished
strewinir our flowers and chanting our requiems.
we will return to our Presides with fresh inspira

and deedB, keeping the sacred flame of patriotism
bright upon IM altar 01 our American nearis.

FROM THE BORDER.
Idle Thrrntu of tht Dlnoritanlxpd Brotherhood
t'lrui.Y or i rooim to Keep the fence.
Toronto, May 30. Despatches from Buffalo
soy there are in that city about 1500 Fenians,
who express their determination to make a raid
in some locality, but being without organization
or anybody capable of leading them, no attack
may be feared. This opinion is from a source
usually considered good.
A despatch from Port Colborno says the
people there expect that an attempt will bo
made to break the Welland Canal, but as there
are plenty of 'troops lnjthe vicinity, there la
really not much danger of the success of any
such undertaking. Three hundred Red River
troops and one company of regulars are under
arms here, ready to move to Port Colborno or
elsewhere If occasion requires.
The Red River troops were to start for Fort
William to-morrow, but will now probably be
detained as a precaution. The general wish
here is that the Fenians will come across and be
60 thoroughly beaten that the "sunburst" would
be thoroughly eclipsed, and an end put to the
present suspense.
A tremendous fire swept over a vast tract of
woods near Fort William, at Thunder Bay, May
18. The burned district is on the route of the
Red River expedition, and will give some
trouble in making a road.

Last week closed on an extremely easy money
market, and appearances so tar indicate no
material change. Currency is quite a drug in
the market, and we shall not be surprised if the
bank statement this evening shows a further in
crease in the supply. At any rate, much dlfll
culty is experienced in putting out all the sur
plus capital on what is considered good security
even at tne low rates 01 4 per cent, on can ana
5a discount on choice paper. The impression
is general that the aspect of the loan market
will vary but little towards the end 01 August
Gold is ouiet and rather weak, but steady:
sales opened at 114, and fluctuated between
that figure and 114' up to noon
Government bonds are slightly unsettled, but
the general tone is strong. There is some de
mand for investment.
There was a large business at the Stock Board
and prices were higher. In State loans there
were sales of the 6s, 1st series, at 105'; City 63
were firm, with sales at lUd for the new bonds
Reading Railroad sold at 5353 1-10; Penn

THE N V.MONEY MARKET ON SATURDAY.
From the K. T. Herald.
"Tlis imnortant part which ths aoestlnn of onr fnroirn
trade wields in the financial .ituation, and which la often
t imps lost sight of in the absorption of Wail street with
local topics and eToLts, baa been made rather manifest
during tbepnstweok in the activity In the foreign ex
citant el. w rat ever ine exaet relation oi onr exports te
the imports, ihe present season is one in whieh usually
mere is irom ine a-ranuai decline oi i ne lormer, a neooa
sitr for gold shipments ami a corresponding advance in
the foreign exchangee. We have often adverted to the
difficulties which surround ths solution of the
questinn of the balance of trade. In former reira
the statistics of the custom house department ware
sufficient to give a very approximate result. Bnt
since the commencement of the tkinment of
Aui.rioan notional and corporate securities
to Knrone. it has been a matter 'of Imnneaibilit to
determine the situation, fo.-ithe reason that no publio
record is made of t hese shipmente, ana hence an impor
tant element of the calculation Is wanting; The ship.
nisnU of gold last week were over two millions of dollars
the largest of any week during the present year. 1 be ad
vance inexebange has not been the result, we think, of an
very extensive demand for remittance!. Bnt commercial
bills and bond bills nave been of late nnusnally scarce.
The decline in gold lasj winter unssttlsd the Importing
trade and merchants were very eoBDrvative in in
troducing goods. The srfT.noa In exchange ha
exhibited dvrnnti Ml 61 k fmABtllativ movement not dis
connected with tt Uold lioom It is openly alleged in
the street that soma oi iut leauiug backers are concerned
in an upward turn to gold, and hence t ne assistance given
their plans by the operation of advancing exchange. The
market is in such a state, however, that a slight advance
in gold lets out renewed shipments of Government securi
ties. The continued ease in the money markets of London
nd Paris has stimulated our Five-twenties and placed
them at quotations which permit shipments from this
side, with gold at 115 and exchange at 10H'.. The gold
market during the week was nasettled, in sympathy
with tne movements ln foreign exchange. Jtariy in
the week some of the ontside ODeratora. aad rer-
baps a csrtain pioportinn of the 'bears' in stocks,
sold the market don to 1I81', from which, with the firm-
ncss in exonange, to ere was a rally to lib',. The market
towards the close was weak aad seemed to be depressed
by speculKtive sales, according to the testimony of the
good loaning rate, the operators for a deoline acting ap
parently on an intimation of the policy of the Govern
ment during the month of June, as well as upon the be
lief that with ;a,(H)(,000 of gold interest to come on the
market July 1 there cannot be any serious advance in the
premium. It is pretty woll understood that the Govern
ment having once enhanoed the national credit to the
degree represented by sold at present prices
Secretary lioutwell Is In accord with General
Grant in so shaping the policy of the Treasury that there
shall be no disarrangement of values in the fntnre hw
any sharp advance in gold. The farmers and mercaants
nave necome reconciled to and nave pocketed the losses
result II g from the fall in sold from 133 to lia. The h.
begun anew on the present platform of prices and do
not need an advance in gold. Indeed, the next winter
will doubtless witness still lower prices for cold than
were made last winter, the country remaining at peace
and being undisturbed in Its foreign relations. When
the cotton crop now in the ground la marketed, geld is
likely to din below 1 111, and those whose business is
naterially affected by the gold premium should make
tt eir calculations accordingly.
"The money market is unusually easv for the season, and
at the close of the week lenders had difficulty in employ
ing their balances at more than three per oent. The rate
on call was three to four per cent., witn some outstanding
engagements at five. The market for commercial paper
exhibits corresponding ease, aad prime double names
were readily saleable at six per cent. Time loans for
sixty to ninety daya have been made at five per cent.
