yet the elements Of . bitterest hostility

Awful war. Now, those.whocontend that

believe, can be prepared to say that the

" we are certain no intelligent person can ig-

Pratt is a remarkable looking man, who

merits as could be _done by many of his
brother -lawyers who had, longer enjoyed
his acquaintance, but he could bear. tettf-

was happy to say tbat the calendar before
him was a very light one -the cases be-
ing very simple_ ones of larceny and
common assault. His Honor explained
in a few words the 'duties of the Jury
with. regard to, such oases, and then
stated that - the . Prison _ Inspectors had
recently reported favorably upon the
strength and • safety of our gaol, which
was now undoubtedly one of the best in
the Province. During the last Session,
ofthis Court the Fenian.excitement was
in progress; and he thought that the
counties Would ever feel proud' that their
citizen soldiers had turned . mite* nobly
in defence of the eonntry on the first an-
nouncement that ita shores had been in-
. vdded armed bands._ The flocks of men
that came pouring intoGoderichnith whatever
arms they could secure, was a sufficient evi-
dence that if invaded again we should • not
requirer the Machinery of the draft or have
to resoh to a System of large bountiev.
'Thereiwould, he thought, certainly, be an
invasion, but the enelny would find that
the people of Canada had not degenerated

TROY, Sept. 8;
The brotherly love which prevailed a
short tiine ago in Fenian circles is rapidly
vani shing. The name of" brotherhood,"
as apphed tothe organization, is very in-
-•
appropriate just now,, and might beset
down as an _Irish bill. The delegates
here are fighting like the historic feline's
of the sweet town Of Kilkenny,Roberts ber-
ates Sweeney, Sweeney piches into Roh-
erts ,-some take sideeivith one, some with
the other, and mine with neither. The
charm is broken, and the happy family- is
happy -no longer, emit in a peculiarly
Hibernian sense.

meet. It is very fine room, situated nw-
,the third story of a block in the heart of
the eity. In order that their debates may
not be heard:outside, the brotherhood keep
the windows and doors carefully closed' , and
allow no clue to Cater that, portion of ,the
