BT. PATRICK'S DAY.
This day the true son of old Erin awakes
4 To remember his patron who turned' out the snakes
To remember throughout that bright island so green ''
Not the tail of a viper is now to be seen;
And so thinking and dwelling on Ireland's old songs,
• lite instinctively turns to poor Ireland's wrongs;
Then slumbers again and, yet dreaming, awakes,
To find out lie has routed an army of snakes;
And not knowing well what to snake of the thing,
Imagines at once he's a Fenian King. - .
Neither he nor "the rest of mankind" need go fist
To appear dressed like kings, if they visit the STAG;
In attire truly regal they always can go, v
.T.f they'll sensibly travel to Proinv,iiir. Co.;
And although at this season bright thoughts fill the
heart,
And on some small excursions they're ready to start ,
Let them always remember, wherever they, are,

TOROITTO, March up 1866.—Thearmounce
meat that Secret a 4 Seward promises the
British Minister-6 permit no violation of
neutrality by the Fenians causes much re
joicing, and the report that the United States
government is sending troops to the Ameri
can frontier is believed to be evidence of her
intention to prevent raids upon a friendly
Power.
Notwithstanding that St. Patrick's So
ciety has decided tomake no demonstration
to-morrow, about one thousand Hibernian
will turn out unarmed, and it is belittved
that peace will be preserved. A volunteer
arrested yesterday for threatening to fire
into the procession to-morrow is to be court
xnartialed to-day.
The Watchman announces the intention
of the government to suppress Irish Cana
dian newspapers for alleged disloyal utter
ances. Volunteering is going on with spirit.
The railway officials still observe all pre
cautions for the safety of theirrolling stock.
The Watchman asserts that the Hibernian
societies will walk to-morrow with banners
bearing objectionable language. It calls
npom Mr. Murphy to throw out these ban
ners from the procession, and warns him if
it is not done it will take General Sweeny
and his great regiment of Fenian to "save
the green."
The city has large acquisition to its in
habitants from the interior, some of whom
are Catholics, others Orangemen. Both par
ties are gathering their clans, and it is pos
sible blood may be shed.
The Montreal Despatch.
MoivrREAL, March 16.—The government
Inis just received a letter from an official in
Windsor, C. W., stating that the Mayor of
Detroit had informed him that he had
caused an inquiry to be made into the
. extent of the Feman movement in that city,
and discovered there was likelihood of an
attack from that point.
The government has also been notified
that the American government is sending
- troops to Buffalo to prevent any attack from
that quarter.
The Six Nation Indians, Iroquois, cola
, . sized on'the Ottawa river, under a descend
ant of the celebrated Brant, last evening
tendered the services of fifteen hundred of
- their braves to the government.
I- am Just informed by an officer of the
Royal Engineers that orders were sent to
England five weeks since for ten thousand
troops, to be landed at Halifax, and who
. will march from thence to New Brunswick,
where the vulnerable point is feared to be.
These troops are expected in ten dati, and
on their arrival, New Brunswick,it is con

very much abated. The hiontrealers ge
nerally believe =that the Roberts and Ssieeny
faction must`give their supporters soma
thing for their money, but that the attack
will beixt the Upper Provittce and in New
Brunswick, but not here at Quebec. They
deem it utter madness to attempt' the cap
ture of either of these cities. They are,
however, actively arming . so that
they may guard the city in the event
of the troops and volunteers being needed
elsewhere.
The Authorities of Montreal Forbid the

BURLINGTON, Vt., March 16.—The au

of St. Patrick's day.
The Flag of the Free Fenians.
The Work/ has this morning an engraving
of the ensign of the Irish Republic—the na
tional flag to be carried by the. Fenians in
the van of their armies, of liberation. As
the design of the Fenian leaders is to mold
the Irish Republic as nearly as possible
upon the model of the United States, they
have been careful, in deciding upon their
standard, to retain as many of the distinc
tive features of the American flag as pos
sible.- The flag may be described thhs:
A white harp on a green field; thirteen lat
eral stripes seven red and six white. The
difference between the Fenian flag
and the United States flag consists in the
substitution in the former of a harp for the
thirty-six stars, and of a green for the blue
held. The length of the ensign is one-third
greater than its breadth. Those who have
seen the flag pronounce it a very handsome
one; and it is quite probable that the Irish
Americans of the United States will soon
. haVe.an opportunity of seeing how it passes
through its first baptism of tire and blood.
The Fenian leaders have endeavored to
keep their flag in concealment_ until the
preparations for publicly throwing it to the
breeze were completed; but as that hour has
so nearly approached, no harm can be done
by giving a fa,c simile.
A correspondent of the World writes
from Ottawa, Canada, March 14, as follows:
—Give ns but another week of such rainy
weather as we have had to-day and we
shall care very little for your Fenian
crowd. A week's- good thaw will make it
unsafe to cross the St. Lawrence on the ice
and with so broad a river between us and
them, covering two-thirds of assailable
frontier, we can snap our fingers at them.
Are we to. have !that much breathing time?
Is the bold Sweeny going to let his oppor
tunity slip? Are we to have called oat
our militia for naught, and to have spent
a couple of hundred thousand dollars in
fighting a phantom? We shall probably
know all this before this letter, printed,
travels back again to Ottawa.
The information upon which the Canadian
government has acted in mobilizing a large
body of volunteers is very precise. One
may laugh at the Fenians in public, but
every one here talks very seriously about
them in private, by ne means echoing the
light jeers of some of our New York scribes.
If you had real men at the head of your
affairs we might feel less anxiety, but we
don't believe you have. When will your
people learn that there is something in true
politics greater than smartness, something
more estimable than snappishness, some
thing more to be respected even than phy
sical strength and pecuniary resources?
Your government once was a dignified go
vernment—nay, it long continued so, but it
seems to have lost that character
now, at least in the estimation of
the people on this side of your Northern
frontier. Strong you are in men and
means. You have no end of monster can
non and repeating rifles and flve-twenty
b(aids and greenbacks. You are a deter
mined and . persistent people. too, . going
towards your ends with a fine directness in
many things. But you do not inspire your
neighbors with confidence, and your ad
ministration lacks that moral force which
many of the governments of Europe have.'
To what end (yen, Mr. Editor may well
ask,) all this objurgation, which with a
sublime coolness you are asked to print and
pay for? That is just what lam coming to.
Mr. Seward says the Penis= will not be
allowed to invade our country. Sir,
there's not a man in Canada believes
he's earnest; that is, earnest after the
good old fashion of our mutual fore
fathers, whose yea meant yea and their
nay, nay. Our government, as I told you,
have precise :information of the Fenian
movements. It is strange, but it is true,
that wherever you have half a dozen Irish
"patriots" you have at least one Irish "in
former," and our detectives have no diffi
culty in discovering the preparations the
Finn McCoolians have made. The Cabinet
Council here never meets Without having
at hand a detailed weekly, and often daily,
report of the Fenian proceedings. Our
Ministers have had the handling of Fenian
cartridges taken by spies from the Fenian
depositories in your frontier cities. They
have seen the Fenian bonds. Why,
sir, if Mr. Seward be sincere, has he not
stopped this business in the bud, where he
could control it? Why did he not seize
the plates when the bonds were being
printed ? Why does he not lay hands
even now upon these bonds themselves?
Why does he allow American uniforms
to be disgraced by being worn at Fenian
meetingal How, th* k you, can your Sec
retary of State thus neglect his duty and
you as a people claim our respect? How is
the matter personal to Mr. Seward? We
are disposed to honor at least one of your
representative men, thelPresident; but is it
true that he gave the countenance of an of
ficial reception to a Fenian delegation?
Many of the readers of the World will say
that the United States don't care for Cana
dian opinion. True, you are thirty mil
lions of people, and we are only three.
You are strong, and we are weak, But
strength has nothing to do with abstract
right; and we stand your equals before the
tribunal of the world at large, which takes
cognivance of right and wrong, without re
spect of strength. But some of you will
say—those of you to wit who, like Bancroft,
fly the untamed American eagle without re
gard to decency at all—that they don't care
for the tribunal of the world. Then, sir,l
bat
a
my shoulders. I know that lam nt
a dwarc and that I stand face to face with a
huge giant; but upon my soul I pity the
giant, that I do !
These considerations should be of more
importance than a narration of mere facts.
But you want facts too. Here they are then.
Our government decided• the other day
that it was advisable to call out ten
thousand -volunteers. At 3 o'clock in the
morning orders were issued from this city
to the various-militia officers, and at day
break the ten thousand were under arms.
By night the government had declined the
services of twenty thousand more. Two
years ago this would have been impossible
in Canada. Then we were in the habit of
begging England to help us in everything.
Now not a newspaper , has thought of asking
Great Britain to send us a single man. The
volunteers are billeted out, and their duties
as yet consist chiefly in guarding the bank
from robbery. The cost to the Province is
about $lO,OOO a day. '
Some day, sir, is to be hoped the Sow
ards, the Thad. Stevenses, and Morrills will
disappear from power. That day will not,
be far on the other side of the,next census;
it maybe a good deal on this side of it, for
the reign of contracted ideas like theirs may
be brought to a sudden end at very short
notice. When it comes, I hope it will not
be found more difficult to restore cordial
trade relations betweeri you and us, than it
has been to break them off. It may be,
however, that when you have lost our ear
ryingtrade—shut out from the ocean East
and West—and perceive that our fishing
grounds are worth to von more than Mr.
Mote's "groat," you may not find us so
willing to treat you with liberality as now.

CUB A..
Particulars of the Recent Revolutionary
Demonstration,
[Correspondence ofthe N. Y. Herald.]
HAv.iimi, March 111,1866. rue Raguct
newspaper of the sth inst. publishes the tbl
lowing regarding the late outbreak at Villa
Clara, which I translate literally:
Our meritorious, civil guard has just ren
dered an important service. It appears that
a band of highwaymen, consisting of some
lourteen or sixteen foolhardy individuals,
armed with knives, cutlasses and muskets,
attempted a rising at Villa Clara, or, some
point in that.district. Their intention ap
parently was to get up a sort or marauding
expedition, and their suspicious proceed
ings created considerable alarm in ;hat
peaceful section of the island. They made
their first appearance in the Calabazal
district; but information of their arrival
having been received by Don Jose Hernan
dez Galvez, commanding the civil guard in
that district, be immediately started, in
search of them with a portion of his force,
and, supported by the lieutenant command
ing at Cienfuentes, he came across them at
a point called Taguayabon, in the district of
San Juan de los Remedios. Some shots
were exchanged, and, finally, the civil
forces succeeded in capturing twelve of the
insurgents, among whom were Don Ven
tura, Rosell, Andres Lopez, Maximo
Guerra, Antonio Rodriguez and Augustin
Milan. They were taken to Remedios and
duly delivered to the custody of the civil
authorities to await trial.
The parties implicated are stated to belong
to the respectable class of society. Villa
Clara, where the demonstration took its
rise, is a town of considerable importance
on the north side - of Cuba, distant about
sixty leagues from Havana. Its situation
is favorable for a revolutionary movement,
as the eastern portion of the island is the
most mountainous and the most disaffected,
being inhabited by a manly class of coun
trymen, termed greajiros.
ANOTHER ACCOUNT.
From the Prensa of March 7.3
The report - which we copied yesterday
from the Sagua, regarding the capture of a
number of individuals suspected of being
about to get up a marauding expedition,
turns out to have been greatly exaggerated.
The truth of the matter, as we have learned
from sources worthy of credit, is as follows:
Some dozen or more individuals were think
ing together in a tavern (bodega) when brie
of them, being excited by his potations, ex
pressed himself in violent terms against the
government, and a lientent from Taguabez,
who. was present, rebuked the man, and,
tearing that the dispute might end in vio
lence, the civil guard were notified, who,
meeting two of the party coming out of the
tavern, arrested them for carrying arms
without authorization, and after inquiring
the names of the others they arrested them
also and handed them over to the officers of
justice at San Juan de los Remedios. Upon
investigation it appears that the man whom
the lieutenant had reproved is addicted to
drunkenness, and in the habit of talking
wild when under the influence of liquor,
"and that the others belonato therespectable
class of society, haVing never offended
against the laws.

EY TELEGRAPH.
From Washintgon.
(Special Despatch to the Bulletin ]
WASHINGTON, March 17.—The Recon
struction Committee are in session to-day
for the purpose of deciding upon a satis
factory constitutional ;amendment in re
gard to representation; one which the entire
Union party can stand on.
The friends of the loan bill are very san
guine to-day of being able to carry that
measure on Monday. The vote, as sent
North, was erroneous. It was 64 for and 70
against.
Its fate, however, is exceedingly doubtful.
Mr. Romero, the Mexican !minister, has
not, as alleged, been before the Rouse
Committee on Foreign Affairs, relative to
the fifty million Mexican loan.
The Ways and Means Committee are still
unable io agree upon what articles shall go
in the free list. They are in session again
to- day in regard to it.
The friends of the Tennessee resolution
have, it is said, a positive assurance frotn
the President that if it passes he will
veto it.
The Excitement. In Canada.
TORONTO, C. W., March 17.—1 t is reported
that a United States revenue cutter is watch
ng the Fenians off Ogdensburg. Large re
niorcementa from England are expected
shortly, including several regiments of
cavalry.
At present there are about 10,000 regulars
in Canada, besides 11,000 volunteers on duty.
There are at least 15,000 fully armed militia
ready to move at a moment's notice, and
80,000 more could soon be made available.
&The Government has an immense num
ber of officers of veterans, well drilled to
ead the militia.
There are a large number of volunteers
at St. Johns'and they are daily increasing.
Some little excitement was occasioned on
the Western frontier last night by noisy
demonstrations in honor of St. Patrick.
The troops were under arms all night,
but all is quiet tollay.
,Fire at Buffalo.
[SECOND DESPATCH.]
BUFFALO, March lith.—A. fire broke out
in the New York Central Railroad Com
pany's freight depot in this city, at 6 o'clock
this morning. The fire was caused by the
watchman upsetting a can:of kerosene oil
near the stove.
The flames spread rapidly and Comma
nicats-d to the splendid elevator belonging
to the Railroad Company. Both buildings
were entirely destroyed, together with a
large number of loaded cars in the depot
and piles of freight.
The freight depot was an immense struc
ture. There were about 400,000 bushels of
grain in the elevator, little or none of which
was saved. The stock of grain was in
sured.
The loss on the elavator, depot and
freight, cannot now be correctly stated, but
it is estimated at over a million dollars.
This loss will fall on the company, which
insures itself.
'The Children of the Commonwealth"—
General Crayslord's Letter.
The following letter of Gen. Crawford to
the Speaker of the House of Representatives
of the State, in reference to the orphan chil
dren educated by the Commonwealth, was
received too late to be incorporated in the
Legislative proceedings of yesterday:
HARRISBURG, PA., March 16, 1866.—H0n.
Jas. R. seUey, Bseaker of the House of Rep
resentatives—Sra : I have the honor to ac
knowledge the receipt of the invitation of
the House of Representatives of Pennsyl
vania to the meeting of the Schools for the
Orphan Children of our deceased Soldiers
and Sailors, in the Hall of the House, to
day
'lnle it was my intention as wallas my
sincere wish to have participated with you
upon this most interesting occasion, it will
not now be in my power.
Sir, if the sight to-day does not appeal
more eloquently than words can do to the
heart of every man and every woman who
loves and cherishes the honor of their native
State, that heart must be cold, indeed. It
must appeal in tones not to be mistaken for
hat justice we are bound by every high and
holy obligation to render.
Trusting, air, that this great and noble
charity, so honorable to us as a people, may
be permanently and liberally secured.
I am sir, with great respect, your obedient
servant, S. WYLIE CRAWFORD,

Mercer's summer residence, near Haver
ford, in the Twenty-fourth Ward, was en
tered and completely sacked or all its valu
able contents, consisting of silk dresses,
summer clothing, jewelry, silverware, &c.
The thieves broke open all the bureaus,
wardrobes and closets, and equipped them
selves upon leaving the premises in Mr.
M's clothing. Most of the jewelry was
marked with the family initials. Among
the articles carried off weresome old family
keepsakes,which were highly prized.
