*Special Despatch to the Bulletin.]
WASHINGTON, April 12.---Gov. Boutwell,
of the Reconstruction Committee examined
.Alexander H. Stephens, yesterday, at great
length, and resumed it again to-day.
Mr. Stephens is an able and shrewd poli
tician, and of course presents matters in
Georgia and the South in the most satisfac
tory lights. His evidence is important and
will be read with interest. It will be made
public at once.
Sir Frederick Bruce, the British Minister,
is greatly exercised in regard to the Fenian
movements on the Canadian fron
tier. He was in conference with
Secretary Seward again to-day in re
gard to the immediate issuing of a procla
mation. The Secretary had already laid the
subject before the President. Its promul
gation may be expected at any moment.
The edict has already gone forth from the
White House that radicals who do not sus
tain "my policy" must give place to con
servatives who do. Seyeral heads have al
ready fallen.
The Fenian Movement.
EASTPORT, Me., April 12.—There is great
excitement on Campo Bello Island, and the
families of the residents there are removing
to this city and taking shelter in barns and
outhouses.
A great Fenian meeting was held last
night, at which speeches were made by B.
D o Kim • n and Major Sinnot.
CALAIS, Me. April 12th.—There was
much excitement yesterday and last night
at St. Stephens, New Brunswick, opposite
this city. The fears of a Fenian raid some
where on the frontier have been strength
ening for several days past, but the precise
point of attack is not yet known.
The reports from Eastport yesterday indi
cated that the Fenian were leaving there
'in squads, it was supposed for Calais; but
up to this hour they have not shown them
selves here.

BECAUSE a person has a bad Cough it
Should not be inferred that Consumption has set in,
although a case of Consumption is rarely met with
unaccompanied by a distressing Cough. Where, how
ever, a pred Lspositton to nulmonary disease exists, a
'cough if left to itself, strains and racks the lungs and
wastes the general strength, and soon estab
lishes an incurable complaint. In all
cases, then, it is the safer plan to et
rid of a Cough, Cold or Hoarseness without dela g y,
and for this purpose no remedy acts more prom_PtlY
or:surely, or with more benefit to the organs of the
Chest, than Dr. D. Jayne's Expectorant , an article
scientifically compounded from carefully selected
drugs, and which, on trial, will always be found
worthy of its world-wide reputation. Prepared only

Signs of a Revolution in New Bruns
wick—How the Disruption of the
Government was Brought
About--Everything Ameri
can Admired and An
nexation to the Uni
ted States Hoped
For---No Party
in Favor of a
Prince to Rule
the Confede
ration, &C.
The N. Y. Herald's New Brunswick cor
respondent sends an interesting resume
of the proceedings of the Provincial Parlia
ment on the subject of confederation, which
resulted in the violent disruption of the
government, as we have been advised by
telegraph. The action of the upper House
in endorsing the Qubbec scheme was unex
pectedly approved by the Governor,who had
been considered an anti-confederationist,
and hence the members really opposed
to the scheme were compelled to resign.
The passage of these resolutions and the
adoption of the address to the Queen pray
ing for home action on the subject of confe
deration created great indignation among the
anti-confederationists and . annexationisth.
The agitation of the question will lead, it ih
believed, to the still more momentous ques
tion of the right of the home government to
thus arbitrarily legislate for the colonies,
and may produce in the maritime provinces
of British North America the same feeling
and circumstances which resulted in our
Revolution of 1776. The opposition to
the scheme of confederation is very
open, bold and undisguised / and
our correspondent represents it as
of a decidedly revolutionary tendency. The
example of the. United States in 1776 is
quoted as worthy of emulation, and the in
fluence of this country is felt in a degree
which the friends of confederation are slow
to confess and admire. The desire for an
nexation to the United States is already
strong, and constantly increasing ; and pro
found respect for our institutions, eustoms
and men is expressed on all sides by the
people of the province.
The late action of the Upper House of the
New Brunswick Parliament in adopting the
confederation resolutions and address is ex
plained by the statement of our correspond
ent that the body is not elected by the peo
ple, but appointed by the Crown, and by no
means represents the prevailing sentiment
on the subject of confederation.
Among the curious arguments of those
favoring confederation is one to the effect
that the confederated provinces will have
power to secede from Great Britain and
annex themselves to the United States, as
they desire, while as separate provinces they
will not have power sufficient to do this,
and will be checked by the home govern
ment in:: every such effort. It is stated
that there is no party or person in the pro
vinces in favor of the establishment of a
colonial throne or presence of a
prince imperial or king to rule the
united country. The bitterest confede
rationists are opposed to this feature of
the scheme. It is anticipated that the
emigration of young men from the pro
vinces to the United States will be very
great this spring.
COMMON Fixes—Judge Peirce. —James F.
Sherry vs. Leonard Grover. Before reported.
Jury out.
QUARTER SESSIONS—Judge All Non.—The
Court is still engaged with prison cases.
THE FIRE AT ST. Louts.—A despateh
from St. Louis says; "The origin of the dis
astrous steamboat conflagration at our le
vee on Saturday has been traced to coal oil,
which it is thought has been the cause of the
last two or three extensive steamboat acci
dents in the West. In the present case it is
reported that the cook of the Nevada, on
which boat the fire caught, was lighting the
fire in the cook house, and to make it burn
more rapidly, undertook to pour some oil
out of a lamp on the fire, when it ignited
and burst, running all over the floor—thus
kindling the fire that resulted in the loss of
$700,000. We understand that the Board of
Underwriters have under advisement the
prohibition of the use of coal oil on steam
boats altogether. The Memphis Packet
Company some time ago ceased to use it,
and now are back to first principles, using
nothing but lard oil. Capt. Moore, Chief
Commissary of the Atlantic and Mississippi
Steamship Company, recived orders on Sat
urday to remove the coal oil lamps from all
the boats.of the line, and substitute them
with lard oil lamps.
THE WASHINGTON NEWSPAPERS.—The
records of the internal revenue office show
that the amount of advertising on which
taxes have been paid by the several news
papers of this city, for the quarter ending
December 31st, 1865, were as follows;
Chronicle, $21,555; Star, $14,952; Republican,
$8,457; Intelligencer, $7,787; Constitutional
Union, $l,OOO. The Chronicle's advertising
for the first quarter of 1866, will show an in
crease over that of the last quarter of 1865,
amounting to over $22,000. The Chronicle's
circulation has also increased,notwithstand
ing its opposition to "my policy" and its ad
vocacy of equal rights for all.— Washington
