en enterprise would be sure to suiter severely
—-if they got any considerable distance §om
the frontier they would never get back.
Manifeglythc coantry cannot i'*
any irregular force for its defence^ b Wo _ .
look to the Government of tho country to dis
charge this duty, and not to any private asso
ciation. AVe do not know what steps the Gov
ernment is taking to prepare against; a possible
raid, bnt the less noise made about it the bet
ter. Anything like a winter campaign, in this
climate, is a matter of great difficulty. It has
often been discussed whether a winter cam
paign be possible, in Canada, or not. As
suredly there are nights of which the cold is so
intense that it would make great havoc among
a regular army under tents, and' an irregular
marauding force would be iu far greater dan
ger. It is equally undesirable that the
mittee should be lulled into false geeputy, "*i
that there should be undue excitement on the
subject of possible Fenian raids. A Fenian
invasion of the country is a chimera, impossi
ble of execution. Suppose fifty or sj»ty thou-,
sand Fenians could be collected into an army
of invasion, where would they get money and
supplies to maintain them? An enormous
sum would be ireqitired for that purpose. V
may be told they would subsist on the plundi__
they would obtain, but this implies a degree of
suecess which they would havebut little chance
of obtaining. They could not’live on the gifts
of a sympathizing population, on the Ameri
can side, if such a population there were.—
Provisions of all kinds are exceedingly scarce
and dear in the States.
Whatever dagger there is - to be apprehended
from the Fenians is, we suspect, m the shape of
small numbers ot desperate men crossing the
frontier, committing some atrocity, and escap
ing back before there was time to pursue and
overtake them. But in this there is nothing in
the shape ot invasion or a regular armed force
fighting in a regular way. The Fenians could
have only one possible object in troubling the
Canadian border; they may be moved by the
hope of plunder—that of conquest can have
no place even in their excited braius. We shall
probably require a frontier police to guard against
their possible depredations; and that force would
probably have’to be composed of volunteers. It
is quite certain that do large body of men could
move to the frontier, with a view of crossing into
Canada, without our getting timely warning of
what wus going on,and baving ample opportunity
to prepare to receive them,in the very improbable
case of the American Government allowing such
a force to cross the frontier into the territory of
a neighboring and friendly power. It FeniauUpi
look to tuvasion, it would inevitably break down
for W8nt of funds; for tte fantastic resouicesoi
Irish Republic Bonds would not save its exche
quer from beggary. The Fenians bave probably
put faith in such silly pretences as that Canadians
would not turn out to repel a marauding inva
sion. But it so, they are grossly mistaken. It
is well that-there should be no mistake on this
point. The .population would rise en masse to
drive out the invaders. There may be a few Fe
nians in Canada—no doubt there are—but they
are only a drop in the bucket, and they would
scarcely be noticable in case of trouh'e, But we
repeat there ia no reason to expect serious diffi
culty; though some petty and irritating annoy-
auces may be encountered, and cost the Province
something in vigilance and in money.

Fibst National Bank or Macoh.—This
institution has been regularly organized, by
the election of the necessary officers, and will
commence burinesa in the course of two or
three weeks. The officers whose election is
announced in our advertising columns, are
some of our most reliable and trustworthy citi
zens ; and when the institution is fairly in
working order, it is calculated to be of more
benefit to our trading men and people gener
ally, ao far as our financial affairs are con
cerned, than anything that could be instituted
in our midst.—Ibid.
Bpsinkss.—We are pleased to see that
there baa been a very perceptive enlargement
of the stocks of goods of many of onr mer
chants, and an improvement in the general ap
pearance of trade, during our brief absence
from the city. Columbus has labored under
disadvantages, during the summer and fall,
caused by the destruction of her railroad com
munications and the extrordinary shallowness
of the river.- The cheaper freight schedules
recently adopted on the Western railroad lines
have already gone far towards the recovery of
the advantages once enjoyed by this city and
the opening of river navigation, which cannot
possibly be delayed many days longer, will
give us facilities unsurpassed by any interior
Southern city, Every action of Georgia or
Alabama tbat formerly found Columbus its
most accessible and advantageous point to
trade at or ship produce to, will find it to its
interest to continue its commercial intercourse
with us.— Columbus Enquirer.
Amende Honorable.—We have been fur
nished with sufficient proof by Col. Archer,
13"th Reg. U. S. C. T.> which clearly shorn
a statement made in this paper a day or two
ago, relative to the conduct of negro guards in
the vicinity of the M. & B. R. B. depot to be
erroneous. Our reporter received his informa
tion from Col. Cummings, but may have mis
understood the facts as related. The guards,
it appears, hare been done injustice, and we
cheerfully make the amende- honorable.

Milohell’s Parting Interview
Jeff Davk. ,/s.
Before wholly dismissing Mitchell, I will brief
ly mention his parting interview yesterday with
Jeff. Davis, and in fact the story is only a brief
one. I only learned ot tbe interview to-day liom
a gentleman who received tbe facta trom Mr. Mit
chell himself,, Ca the contrary, when I wrote my
letter of yesterday, I was given to understand
moat positively tost he was hot allowed before
leaking tbe fort to see either Jeff'. Davia or y.r.
Ctay.
“1 have come to bid you good by,” said Mr.
Mitchell to Jeff. Davie, extending hia band to
the latter, who grasped tt warmly and firmly,
held m_it hia daring the brief interview between
them.
“Ths pleasing news of your restoration to liber
ty bas already been told me,” replied Me. Davia
“and I congratulate yaq, now that you are a free
eitizen of the world agaib.’,
**I hope I shall short have tbe p^asnre of sim
ilarly congratulating you,” responded Mr. v it
ch ell.
“I bide my time eheerfolly and hopefully,'
op Mr. Davis
‘ Have you aqy commands lor me?” asked
Mr. Mitchell: "any service that 1 can do far
you.”
“I onlv ask tq continue you on my list of
friend* who are doing all they can for mo.”
“Be^ as eared ot my ootaiiiag co-operation in
“I ask nothing more.”
