Matters remain as before, ing com..plete command and styling himself Commander -in -Chief, If anything, the natter seems more com- plicated and formidable than ver. Vic. Gen. Thiebault and Col. DeSalaberry were to be admitted to an audience : with ,the Council, as representing the Can dian Gov- ernment, in order to explain t e position. the 'Government had taken, and ' is hoped their influence may be instrt mental in bringing about a better enders riding. Dr. Tupper was two days in ort Garry, and naet with Riel ; but nothin was said as to the insurrection. . Eight hundred French half -bleeds have joined. Riel's force. It was rumored when Dr. upper left Pembina that a large party of Sioux. In- dians were marching. to Fort d airy, and that the half-breeds had gone 4 to meet them. If this be true, • it will dQubtless be the commencement of. new Lind serious trouble. All the Canadian party are still in pris- on and n_ othing is said about the r release.- I met an English half-breed rom ' Fort Garry, who complains of the way they were treated by Col. Dennis. He a ked them to sign that they were willing to support the Government, s nd in the middle of their'_ preparations to cit so, he left thm in the larch, without even paying then - the four • shillings due them. ,- . The insurgents have taken possession of the safe containing the Hudson's Bay treas- nry, and are paying the soldiers with it. They gave a receipt to the domp { ny for all the goods and money taken. Dr. Tnpper describes Riel as a very shrewd, intelligent determined an. ST. PAUL, Minn. Jan 15. A letter from Joe Rollotte, r. written at Fort Garry, December 31st, s ys a party of Sioux Indians are at James • McKay's, six miles from Fort Garry. An officer was sent by the insurgents to inform (them that they were not wanted in the Settlement, and must return. They. sent the officer back, saying that they were well supplied with amus, ammunition, blankets, &c ; that they understood the half-breed insu' gents and Americans were making war on the Eng- lish, and they had a strong desir to fight the aforesaid half •breecds. Means were be- ing taken to pacify the Indians: ,The -St. Paul's Press in an editorial this morning says from latest Red River news, there seems to be some peospec that the negotiations of Thiebault and D Salaberry will have a successful result, for they offer all desirable concessions to the I surgents ; and the Red River people, it is intima ed, are going to send a delegation o ; Ottawa to treat with the New Dominic' This is the most sensible thing that b th parties can do, so instead of a , Wininp` g Repub lic or the State of Winnipeg, th , good peo- ple of Red River seem likel to settle down, for a :while at least, to staid old fashioned English Colony, and w th Canada and the Hudson Bay Co., both owing to the desires of insurgents, the quarrel may be considered ended at last, unless the Sign, Indians should : get -in" and .cause trb.ib1e.' A Tetter dated Pembina, 3r January says:.] have just returned from ort Garry where all is quiet Vic. Gen. Thi. bault had reached St. Norbert on Chris mas Day, and Col. D. Salaberry, his bro her Com- missioner, hes ,received hie pass . ort,from Riel and `will leave Pembina to- orrw for _Fort Garry. Thiebault and De Salaberry will settle, if possible, the preset difficul- ties. They will, on reaching F rt Garry, confer with the leading insurgents` and make arnown their mission.. hey will grant to the Red River people al just de- mands, and will make all desirable concess- ions. The Red River people will likely try the experiment of sending a delegation it) the Canadian Government t Ottawa with full power to treat with the Dominion upon the most favourable terms, s ones than have any further trouble or ris of war. The new Governor of Hudson B y, Donald 0.--Smi'.1, appeared before the Insurgent Council on the 29th :ult, -arid owledged - them as the present Govern nt of the country. -'The Red River count y is now quiet and under the rule of .the Insurgent Couucil, Good order.:.as . pres rved, but business suffers, and money is se rce. The pe3ple are united against anything like civil war. Publio Policy. With regard to the legislati n of the coming session. -.. In all probability an appropriation will be made for the Welland Canalto remove the obstructions, so that it can be fed from Lake Erie, and to give all theca acity Wile without an enlargement t year. It is' believed that a measure ill be in- troduced to make the Grenville Canal .ad equate to the requirements of t e Ottawa h•.unber trade. The repott of M a Mor= Pair an l Supple to Mr.. Page, G ief Engi- neer, as to the construction of dam and the.deepening of the Canal, bas en favor- ' abt'y received by the Board of Pu lic works, It is understood t r t the vernrent will , take up the q:u 'on ©f the arbors of refuge on Lakes Erie, Ontario d Huron, a measure the meed of which has long been acinowledged, A Banking Scheme of some kind or an- other will, in all probability, be uubm tted for RerLoUs, e4nsideratioir. It is surmised that the Miitiatry will adopt ' a pone ► to se- cure uninterrupted communication with the Red River settlements exclusively through British territory. Owing to the continued maintenance of a strictly roteotiye, policy by the Govern- ment of the Un}te a States, it is generally believed that a' strong pressure will be brought to bear upon the Ministry next session to obtain a considerable modifica- tion in'the free list. Ther members from the Lower Provinces are understood to be strongly in favor of a more stringent .pro- tection of our fisheries. THE Stratford Beacon, of last week, ridi- cules all its contempories that fall back on their prognostigations of the direful conse- quences which would probably follow the appointment of the Red River Council ; and` even goes the length of affirming, that it is purely a matter , of their imagination that such 'anticipations were made at 'all. Now so far as e are concerned, by referring to the EXPOSITOR of Sept. 10th, in speaking of' -this . matter we say :—" We should not wonder to see this action, of our Govern- ment resolve itself into t e thin end of a wedge which will ultimat ly sever Britain and the allegiance of this p ople." Further on we say :—" Unless the Government pro- ceeds with great caution, we may not only have to pay dearly for our new Province, but also sacrifice life, in order to keep it in possession, if not to even get it." And this is not any stronger language than the vast majority of our excnanges employed. We than not enter into debate with the Beacon on the merits of its general positi- on, which is, that the course of the Govern- ment'°was the proper one, that being a mat ter, on which—the Beacon and a few " Com- bination" papers, of the most servile stripe excepted—a common award has been ren- dered An English correspondent tells us of a new artifice which will make the strongest iron clads in the British navy, or in any navy, as vulnerable as the three -deckers, .of the Agamemnon days. It is a torpedo, something in the shape of a sword -fish, which being swiftly propelled under water, with its charge of nitroglycerine or dynamite, can shatter any iron ship it touches. The invention comes from an A .ustrian, who in this way would supply the naval deficieney of his country. -------r--s-�-fes•----- Tlie Department of State at Washington, has eedespatch from Mr. Webb, U. S., Counsul at Zanzibar,/ dated 2nd October last, in which he says : "Last evening a letter was received at British Consulate here from Dr. Livingstone, bearing the very re- cent date of May 30th, 1869. The great traveller had at last reached Legigi on Yan- ganyikae Lake, where hethad found his sup- plies. He wrote 'in good heath and spirits, and announced bis intention of travelling windward of Yanganyikae until some boat- men and further supplies, for which he now sends, reach Legigi. CHESS.
