Prospects of Lively Times Along the Ca- Secret Movement* and Large Arrlvafa of Invasion, of* the flew Dominion to Commence at Once. . St. Atmans, Yt., April 18.187Q.-Tli<; stories of another Fenian invasion of the New Dominion /from the American frontier have been again revived, , and the characteristic serenity of our Canadian friends is, therefore, very much disturbed. Numerous reports have been sent from Montreal, Quebec and other agitated points in the Dominion, to the effect that there is a general alarm prevalent across the border and that great- preparations have also beeu made to repel an advancing foe; but there has at the same time been a surpris mg lack of information' concerning'any pre meditated oflensive operations on the part of that dreaded organization which has said so much and done comparatively so h™<‘, about the liberty and welfare of Ireland. The Dominion Government, according fo a speech of Sir John Macdonald, at Ottawa, the other day, professes to have reliable informa tion that the Fenians positively and seriously contemplate a raid into Canada at an early day, and although the American people generally regard these fears in the light of levity, the Herald correspondent, from information ob- from a reliable source, feels constrained to differ from the popular opinion expressed in the States, and behevo, with Premier Mac donald, that the Fenians have already organized and are now rapidly preparing for an early incursion into her domain ! Secret Preparations. From the fact that so little his recently been said about the Fenians and their movements it is evident that their preparations for hostile operations have been guarded with tho utmbst secrecy, and this silence has, in fact, strength ened the opinion of many that there is really ho ground for the sudden alarm that has taken place in Canada, ftfhe truth Is, that while everything has been done quietly—almost un known even in the community where the pre parations have been the greatest—a campaign lor offensive operations has been very care* fully, deliberately and extensively arranged. Arrival of Arms and Amninnlilon. As long ago as last December arras and mu nitions of war began to arrive in this section, and they have continued to come in greater or lesser quantities until within a week or a fortnight past. The ammunition, several tons ol it, has arrived generally in tierces and hogsheads, marked “Blacksmiths’ coal, ” and has been forwarded over the Vermont Cen tral Kailroad and dropped either here or at Btation (a few miles east), and at Essex junction, near Burlington. The parties claiming these mysterious packages have al most uniformly been residents of Fairfield, an J nsh settlement a few miles southeast from St. Albans, and they have invariably carried them away after dark and probably secreted them in some of the numerous forests which abound in that vicinity. Seven Thousand Speneer Rifles, in cases, bearing the mark of “ Bristol Brick ” were also received by a single firm in this town a few weeks since, and quicklv and si lently sent off into the interior of the countrv in the direction of the Canadian line. Twenty four cases of another kind of arms were also received at about the same time at the Georgia station, and were as soon claimed and as/ rapidly and quietly taken back into the country. afannfaefare of Shell* and Solid Shot. At a certain foundry in the State, on the line of the Central Railroad, the whole force has been employed until within a few weeks in the manuiacture of shell and solid shot. At the time the contract was made for them with the founder, it was understood that they were to be sent to Cuba; but it was ascertained on Saturday that they had not left Vermont, and ltis therefore reasonable to believe, when the other facts and circumstances are considered, i hat they are intended for the army which most assuredly contemplates an attack on the Dominion. IfeUlau Artillery Already in Canada. It may seem strange, but it is nevertheless a fact, that there are already several pieces of h enian artillery, safely secreted within the Canadian border, which the invaders expect to bring out after they have crossed the fine, probably tor an attack on the Victoria bridge or to shell Montreal from this side of tho tit. Lawrencei river.' Tho guns were purchased in New York and Massachusetts, then taken \Y est and secreted in a car load of wheat; which was consigned to a Fenian confederate on the line of tho Grand Trunk Railway, about mid way between Montreal and the Americau frontier, and when the advancing army of Ire land reaches this artillery depot the hidden pieces will bo brought forih and hurried rap idly .towards the St. Lawrence. An Encounter ,at Windsor—The First Blood for tbe British-. Retreat of the Fenians. On Sunday afternoon, says the Detroit Post of April in, tbe first encounter between the hod Coats and the Fenians took place at Windsor. The Fenians were defeated, but retreated in good order, bringing their wounded to this side of tho river, The force I crossed from this city on Sunday in the day time,and at once made an attack on the Ameri can <formerly the Hirons)House. The first ob ject of their attaok,after the descent on the bar, was a stray volunteer, who, as thirsty as them selves, suddenly found himself in the hands of the enemy. While waiting for his “ ’alf and alf, the green neckties of the invaders flashed the fact on his loyal brain that he was a piisoner. But he was determined not to give np without a struggle. One of the seveu, drawing his revolver, and tapping the red coat on the shoulder, intimated that “ that was the kind of things the volunteers would re ceive when the Fenians came over.” " And this,”- replied the soldier, “is what the Fenians are going to get now,” rolling up his sleeves, and displaying a pair of gigantic fists, one of which sent the revolver and its owner to the floor on the double quick. The other six, rather nonplussed at the sudden discomfiture of their leader, hardly knew which were better, to retreat or fight. Thoy were just on the point of attacking the red coat, however, when he, receiving large re inforcements,renewed the attack and forced the Fenians to evacuate their position. The retreat of tho latter would have beon turned into a disastrous rout but for tho arrival of a volunteer officer, who counseled moderation, and the invaders were allowed to recross the river unmolested. The news of the victory spread through the village like lightning. Patriotism went np and whisky went down proportionately. The “blarsted Fenians” had lost the first blood and the faded reputa tion of the Queen’s Own been retrieved. It was glory enough for one day, A bon fire was about to be lighted to celebrate the event, when tho hilarity was suddenly brought to a stand-still by the sounl of firing in the vicinity in the barracks. The suspicion at oqce spread ' that the main- body of the Fenians were now in the village. ' The Wind sor blood fairly curdled, and it despatch to the “’Oine Government,” congratulating ’Er Majesty on tho victory gained a few hours beforo, was detained. All the troops were at pnoe called, ;bnt few responded- ; Tho war trumpets Were sounded, Imt Gabriel’s trump would .have been inefficient to ; call the vol unteers from their beds.

The sentry claimed to have been fired at, and the colored man, who pleaded accident as the cause of the.shot, was locked up In the guard house. The subjects now felt safe, and a com paratively quiet night’s rest resulted. CUBAN MATTERS. NaceewM--ElKht Cnbfiti Ladles to bo Shot at TriOltlnd- - an Atnertciin Havana, April 13.—Captain-General Rodaa baa sent another special steamer from Nuevi tas-to this city to bring us the news in his pos session, additional to those contained in his despatch of the Bth, reported in my yesterday’s “ 1K *', xcel| eucy writes under date of tho 10th, and briefly announces that military operations in the Camcguey are continued with great activity: but that the Spanish forces have done nothing: that in the district or Las Tunas Count de Valmaseda is war ring Ruccessfnlly against the insurgents, and steadily advancing his forces towards the <J»- meguey j'that one of his columns has defeated an insurgent force at Las Parras, causing it a loss of .twenty-seven men, and subsequently redefeated it, with the assistance of the Dela mater gunboat Eco, at Sabana la Mar, causing it-a further loss of twenty-two men, among whom are the oflicers Manuel Aguero and I rancisco Lucas, hilled, and Carrillo Aguero wounded; and, that negroes and Cuban fami lies continue presenting themselves to the Spanish authorities, receiving amnesty. It will be at once notedthat the Captain-General, albeit he is so well informed as to the Cuban losses in the two mentioned engagements, is ignorant as to those of his own troops, or, at least, refrains from stating them. From Santo Espiritu newH is at hand to the 10th. The insurgents are again in force around the shire city, and the Spanish paper of the place admits that daily they surround Spanish troops and residents with a belt of fire. On the 9th the ■ burning element communicated to the suburbs and was checked with great difficulties. The Santana, Kude sindo, Manaca Iznaga, Borja, Marin and other estates have been the prey of the fiery tactics of the insurgents. From Trinidad dates to the evening of the 10th, I learn that the-Spanish military com mission of the city is engaged in trying eight Cuban ladies and two Cuban gentlemen for iltfiloyalty, and it was apprehended that some of the ladies would be found guilty, sentenced to death, and shot. It is to be hoped, for sure, that these apprehensions are ill-founded, and that the Spaniards will not still further shock the humane sentiment of the world by carry;: ing the arbitrariness and iron-handed severity of their rule so far. Rear Casilda 396 tin cans tilled with English powder were found on the Bth by the Spanish authorities, buried in the ground. The Spaniards account for the existence of this supply of war material by charging that the powder was brought some months ago by an American vessel for the in surgents,out that the captain, having been unable to deliver it to the Cuban parties for whom intended, in consequence secretly landed it and buried it where found, in the false hope that the insurgents would be able to come here and carry it off. The name of the suspected vessel is kept a secret, as Bhe is not at present in any port of the island, and the Spaniards do not desire to forewarn liar captain from falling into the nets set for his arrest, by letting him know that the name of his offending vessel is in their possession. A singular case of suicide occurred on the Btb, on the American steamer Juniata, during her voyage from Hew Orleans to Havana. Among her cabin passengers for Havana was a Spaniard of the name of Rafael Gonalones, who, on the day mentioned, without, cause or provocation, drew a pistol on a,fellow passen ger, also a Spaniard, but not an acquaintance, and would have mnrdered the man only the pistol’s cap snapped. Gonalones thereupon recocked his pistol, and as the other Bpamard had in the meantime made off, descended into the ladies’ cabin, and fired at a group of ladies assembled at the fur ther end, fortunately hitting no one, hut creating considerable excitement. Imme- diately afterwards, the no doubt crazy Spaniard rj® upon deck, and, taking refuge upon onS' -of the after rails, threatened to shoot any one coming near, made a wildha rau«rue in Spanish, and ended hiß manoeuvres by shooting himself through the head, falling overboard, and was wisely left by the officers of the Juniata to his watery grave. Some 8300 in gold, which Gonaloncs had deposited with the purser when he paid his passage money, have been delivered over to the Spanish au thorities to go to his family, should they be discovered.— N. Y. World. 1 -RIIUALISR in ENGLAND. What a Bishop Is Doing. The Bishop of London has had a special interview with Key. Mr. Mackonocliie, of St. Albans, and a number of other clergy of ritualistic tendencies. He told them he con sidered that he has a right to enforce the fol lowing regulations, among others, in all tho churches of his diocese,,pnd it is understood that he will take means to enforce them: The prohibition of the notices of high celebration of the Holy Eucharist; the ceremonial mixing water with the wine at the holy communion ; the elevation of tho paten anti the cup ; the ringing of a bell at the time of consecration anti elevation; making tho sign of across when about to mix water with the wine; wearing stoles -and dalmatics at the com munion service; using lighted candles on the communion table during cole -bratiou; . the ceremonial use of lighted caudles at other times; using incense for censing persons and things; processions round tho ehureh with thuritors, incense-ves sels, crucifixes and candles; leaving the Holy Tabio uncovered on Good Friday; blessing of candles, &c. The points which the bishop proposes to leave uukmcbed for the present are as follows: The vases of flowers on the Holy Table, regarding which the Dean of the Arches said there was no evidence to prove that they had been used as an additional rite or ceremony; administration of wine and water mixed: standing in front of the Holy Table, with hack to the congregation during the prayer of Consecration; the use of wafer bread; wearing a chasuble at the Communion Service; wearing tunicles and albs at the Com munion Service; wearing the baretta. It is understood that the clergy more immediately affected Will resist the bishop’s attempt to suppress the practices in whioh they are in terested, and that a fierce ecclesiastical battle may be expected.

It, was then within three feet of the flood of 1808, four anti a half of that of 1840, and. seven’ of that of 1805— when the lower end of Harris burg below "Washington avenue was inun dated, and when that portion of Paxton creek passing.through the city entirely disappeared trom sight,' having been wiped outiy the over flovved of the river,. Independence Island was completely sub merged by tfce flood yesterday, and Thomas's Island partially. Th&ljocliiel Iron Works and McCormick’s rolling mill"were obliged to cease operations,, the water having forced itself into the build-, lrl gs to an extent that made, work impossible:' The big rise in the river attracted hundreds of people to its banks to watch the rapidly-in creasing water and the logs and brushwood carried c>n its bosom. The speculations as to the probable extent of the flood were numer ous and varied,"many who have watched the Susquehanna’s freaks for years declaring that it would not be as high as that of 1868, while some ot the less-experienced contended that it would nearer approach that cf 1805. At Williamsport the damage bv the floor 1 was more marked than at Duncannon. In Pourth street of that city the water was four feet deep on Monday evening, and the street railway cars were unable to move. People were obliged, in numerous instances, to re move from their houses, the water having in vaded their lower rooms and endangered the safety of the occupants. A number of bridges are reported to nave been swept away on Some of the small streams flowing into the Susquehanna near Williamsport. Several spans of a boom broke, and other damage was sustained It is stated that seventeen rafts -broke loose during yesterday afternoon and last night, at a place called ‘‘The Willows," near Marietta. The rafts were carried by the turbulent waters over the dam at Columbia, and with the rafts two men, whose names are at pres ent unknown, and who are said to have been drowned. AFFAIRS IN lIAYTI. United States Consul Weiner Still a Prisoner-Formation or President Sa- Bct’s Cabinet—Payment or the French Debt—Salndve’s Accounts—The Finau clal Position—War Steamers for Sale. Ijobt"aw1 j obt" aw Prince, April I.—No news nas reached us in relation to the case of United States Consul Weiner, who was captured and held as a hostage by Deigrace Jaequet, since the British war steamer Niobe and three Haytien steamers sailed for Dos Abricot to demand his release. It ig rumored that Jaequet, who is proscribed as an outlaw, has .sent Sir. Weiner, under a trusty guard, to the mountains, and refuses to give him up unless his own safety is guaranteed by the British captain,as he is unwilling to trust the promises of this government. President Saget has made his appointments ot his constitutional advisers ;< in a manner which gives general satisfaction,- selecting re presentative men of the different interests and goiitieal sections of the republic. M. T. amean continues to hold the portfolio of State. The new appointments are: General Monplasir, of the Department of the South, Minister of War and Marine; General P. Lorquet, of the Artibonite, Minister of the Interior and Foreign Kelations; M. B. Lalle uiand, of the West, Minister of Finance and Commerce; M. St. Ilmont F. Blot, of tho North, Minister of Justice. Arrangements have been made for payment of the debt due, according, to treaty, by this republic to Frauce, in quarterly payments, ending in 1872 (the first of which, amounting io 500,000 francs, was paid on the 22U ult, to M. Doissant, the French Consnl here). This will close the only foreign debt owed by this "overnment, but the late goverument was three years in arrears to France, and it is in tended, as soon jjfjJlie present debt is settled, to take up these ’ at rears and pay them as rapidly as possible, with ti per cent, interest per annum from the time of Anal payment in 1872 of the new debt. - After the disposition of Salnave hisgccounts underwent a thorough examination, and a bal ance was shown ot 86 50, gold, whioh amount was found in the treasury The accounts also called for 83,000,000 in paper money, but only about half of it was found, the rest is supposed to have been pillaged. The crown ot the late Soulouque was found in the treasury; there are several valuable dia monds in it. It is valued at *50,000, gold. Tho treasury at present exclusive of the in stallment of the French debt, contains Sl5O - gold,and $200,000 due on accountof duties’, &c M $35,000 of which is in the shape of an ac eeptance of the Jamaica Government as dam ages in the La Have matter. The government Ims offered tbreo of their war ships for sale, the Florida, Quaker City and Alexander Potion, the result of which will add to the assets in the treasury. They intend to keep only the Mount Ver non and Union. The Mount Vernon has left here for Kingston, to take in the La Have’s cargc^joL.ammunition. The goverument has ordered'that the late provisional officers fur nish statements of their accounts to show how the public moneys have been expended. Large quantities of provisions from the United States are coming in, and tho market is be coming plentifully supplied. Gold is quoted at 160. BUBAL i Ki.it irr.

The gen tleman who was drawing up this document declined to proceed with it under the circum stances, and walked out of the house. Loolc- ipg up before leaving, he was in time to witness an altercation between Mr. Wimberly and a Dr. Dinkgrave, termi nating in ablow from the former and two pis tol-shots from- the latter, after which Mr. Wimberly lived about ian hour.
