Proposed Consolidation of Washington and
» rgetown.
Board of Trade have taken
action with a view to the ecpsolidatiou of the
eities of Washington and Georgetown an l the re
mainder of the oounty of Washington into one
municipality, instead of being, as at present, un
der the control ol five distinct authorities. They
declare it is eminently proper that the Board ol
Trade, representing so large an amount of the
property and trado of this district, should take the
lead in this movement, in order to procure an
efficient and harmonious municipal government.
The Frank Policy of our Government.
In a despatch to the late Minister Dayton, the
Secretary ol State said he might not improperly
improve the occasion by remarking that the Exe
cutive government ot this country has no organ
in the press, and its views and sentiments in re-
f ard to France and to all other countries can be
nown always by the language ot i>b diplomatic
representations; for it instructs them minutely,
and directs them to speak always frankly and sin
cerely. A short time before this communication
was sent to Minister Dayton Mr. Seward wrote
to him:—
The statements made to you by M. Drouyn de
Lhuya concerning the Emperor’s intentions are
entirely satisfactory if we are permitted to as
sume them as -having been authorized to be made
by the Emperor in view of the present condition
ot affairs in Mexico. It is true, «s I have before
-emarked, that the Emperor's purposes may here
after change with changing circumstances. We
ourselves, however, are not unobservant of the
progress of events at home and abroad; and in no
case are we likely to neglect such provision for
our own safety as every sovereign State must al
ways be prepared to back upon when nations
with which they have lived in friendship ooase to
respect their moral and treaty obligations. Ycnr
own discretion will bo your guide as to how far
and in what way the pablic interests will be pro
moted by submitting these views to the consider
ation of il. Drouyn de Lhuys.
Emigration to the South.
Enligration companies are forming in many
sections of the North to furnish the South with
the labor and capital necessary to produce their
accustomed crops, and also to substantially
benefit the emigrant. The United States Mu
tual Protection Company of this city, with the
First Assistant Postmaster General at i's head,
has already leased many valuable plantations
in Northern and Central Mississippi, and has
many applications from Southern planters for
tenants and laborers. Some five hundred fami*
lies are prepatiug to move South in the month
of January in the auspices of this association.
Southern land owners at present in this city ex
press themselves warmly in favor of these emi
gration movements, and promise labor and
capital every possible encouragement and pro
tection. Col. Forshey, of Texas, aud Colonel
Hall, of New Orleans, are endeavoring to in
duce emigration to tbeir localities.

OFFICIAL INFORMATION FOR THE
PUBLIC.
The following circular is issued by the Commis
sioners of Health of New York city.
The undersigned, having been Requested by the
Commissioners of Health of ’ the City ol New
York, to pqblish suo’h information as may be of
use to the people at large, in view of the antici
pated approach of an epidemic of Cholera, would
most earnestly call the attention of the public to
thofollowtng statement of facts, and beg their
careful consideration of the suggestions and ad-
vie*:
Whatever differences of ooinion may. exist in
regard to the cause and mode of propagation of
the cholera, all now agree iu their (Observations
is this acknowledged fact that it< greatest ravage;
and most fearful mortality is among the ratin',
the vicious, and the destitute, and in fact, it is al
most oonficed to the imprudent, the intemperate
and those who injure themselves by taken iinpro*
per medicines:
Cleanliness, therefore, is of the first importance
—both of your persons Aid of your houses—
puticolatly your yards, sinks, privies, and oess-
pools,where fresh chloride of lime should be daily
sprinkled, and tbe adjoining wall* and fenoes
surrounding them repeatedly whitewashed.
'i ’careful that there is no stagnant water
either in your cellars or yord.s, and if your base
ments are damp, use fires in them frequently, to'
burn up the foul air and cause a more perfeet
uentiiatioa. r
Rrmnve all garbage at least ouee a day, and
take if possible, and permit nothing to remain
on the premises to uodergo decomposition.
Iioep your houses all ventilated
Be temperate in all things—both in eating and
drinking.
Be temperate in exercise, in labor, both phy
sical and mental
Keep good hours.
T ike proper food in reasonable quantities at
proper times, .
Plainly cook meats with boiled rice, bread, and
thoroughly cooked potatoes should form the ordi
nary base of diet.
Abstain from all unripe fruit and stale or par
tially decayed vegetables; but above all avoid
exca8s in intoxicating dricks of every kind.
Wear flannel next the skin, and at all times
maintain the nutnral temperature of the body by
a sufficient amount of clothing. Avoid all ex
posure to sadden changes of temperature, and if
accidentally exposed to a storm, removo your wet
boots and olotbing as toon as poasible.
Tbe cholera is not the necessarily fatal disease
which it is odmmonly believed to be—bat is a dis
ease that is both preventable and curable. It is
always preceded by symptoms of langour aDd de
bility, with diarrhoea, and in this stage is almost
always curable; but if neglected at this period and
the diarrhoea permitted to continue until chol
era comes on, it is then almost always fatal.
At the very commencement of the disease go to
bed, r,nd stay there until you are well, with warm
flannel around the body, warm brioks or bottles ot
hot water to the feet, if necessary; and, if there is a
tendency to vomit, apply a musiard plaster ever
the stomach. If you have not got a bed, lie down
on tho floor and keop yourself warm; but, by all
means, retain the horizontal position all the time,
not even getting up to attend to the evacuations,
but use a bedpan or other convenience for that
purpose. And immediately send for some quali
fied physician for advice. But, above all things,
abstain from taking any of the advertised nos
trums that will flood the city, and swallow no
medicines unless prescribed by a competent phy
sician.
The Commissioners of Health are doing all
iD their power for the purification of this city
and the protection of the people, but it must
be evident to all that they cannot do everything,
and would therefore respectably call upon their
fellow-citizens to co-operate with them in every
possible way in their power.
Sources of filth and impurity may exist
without the knowledge of the Public Authori
ties, and every citizen should feel the necessi
ty of keeping a watchful supervision over his
own premises, and when individual efforts are
inadequate for their removal, they should call
upon the Board for aid and assistance.
Fear and des/>ondency are the great sources
of danger in all epidemics, but more particu
larly so in cholera than any other.
While, therefore, we would urge upon all
our citizens the use of every prudential and
precautionary measure, let them preserve a
calm and composed state of mind, a cheerful
heart, and dispel all fear, and by a confiding
trust in an All Wise and merciful Providence,
we can reasonably hope to escape this scourge,
if we implicitly obey Ilis laws.

An Awful Blast Against the
Fenians, from Thomas
D'Arcy Mu Gee.
WHAT HE THINKS OF “YANKEE-
IRISH DEMAGOGUES."
Fenianisma ’Shameful Farce-”
HIS VIEWS OF THE NEW YORK IRISH
PARLI AMENT—HEAD CENTRE O’MA
HON T, GEORGE FRANCIS
TRAIN, ETC.
A recent Toronto telegram alluded to a sensa
tion speech, which Hon. Thomas D’Arcy McGee
had made, the p-eviouB evening, at a compli
mentary banquet given him. by some of the lead
ing citizens of that city. We fiod the speech
entire, in the Toronto papers. The following
extract will be read with interest, by those whom
it may concern:
Mr. Chairman—In the presence of so many
gentlemen to whom we hope to listen, I ought
to reiterate my thanks, and resume my seat,
but there is a subject which has occupied a
good deal of public attention, with which my
name has been much mixed up at home and
abroad, and upon which I hope you will allow
me to b?, as these times demand, explicit and
emphatic. If this be your will, gentlemen, yon
will grant me the latitude Montreal has always
allowed me, and I will endeavor not to abuse
your indulgence. As to the usefulness of the
speeches I made at London or at Wexford, I
can have nothing to say. I thought it neces
sary to show my countrymen the reverse of the
American model always glistening before
tbeir eyes. I endeavored to set the truth
clearly before my ow n mind and equally so be
fore them. [Cheers.] It was not a pleasant
re port for me to make or for a mother country
to hoar that for so many years of her emigrants
democracy and degeneracy had proved identi
cal terms. It was not a p^easa^t subject to
sketch those seaport demagogues, native and
Irish, who haye m a dc themselves the master*
of the possessions of so many of tbe Irish in
the United States who are at this moment coin
ing tbeir prejudices, if not in gold, certainly in
greenback^ to the astonishment and delusion
of all sensible men. But I was careful not to
permit tbe impression that the degenerate class,
though unfortunately too numerous, include all
my countrymen in the United States. I was
careful to do justice to the domestic and public
virtues of a very different class (cheers) against
whom tho worst reproach we can make is, that
they fail in a nobler resistance to the dema
gogues and their.dupes; that the lowest and
least among them speak for ail that content
themselves with avoiding the contamination;
they make no effort to keep their less intelligent
compatriots out of the jaws of those who daily
devour them as their prey. If any justifica
tion were- needed by any one of the severity
with which I spoke of tbe Yankee-Irish dema
gogues, they may find it in the shameful farce
now played before our eyes under the title of
the Irish Rejmblic. [Laughter.] We have
had on the boards before the Irish Ambassador
and King O'Neil, but these performances are'
all eclipsed by the Irish Republic and Presi-
dent O’Maboney. [Laughter.] -An Irish Re-
puBlic on Manhattan Island, with Senators
from Tennessee and Senators from Massachu
setts, with a President taken from Lunatib
Asylum, and in a concatenation skxmdinglv.
Mr. Train, if there reaily be such a person as
Mr. Train—as its orator—I say if there really
be such a person, for I always suspected that
Train was a work of fiction, like Orpheus C.
Kerr, or bird of freedom sawin. [Great Laugh
ter.] As an extravaganza on American ora
tory, the character if not badly sustained, a
little too improbable perhaps ; but if there be
really such a person and if he really made the
mad speech he is reported to have made in lav
ender-colored gloves to the Feoian Congress at
Philadelphia, only fancy what a Congress it
must have been. '[Laughter.] Only fancy the
Congress that sat, nearly a century ago, at
Philadelphia. The Fenians the authors of a
liberation of Ireland ? They liberate Ireland ?
Why don’t they liberate the Ireland at their
owu doors, from the poisonous end murderous
surroundings of the tenement houses of
New York and Boston ? [Cheers.] Why
don’t they liberate their own young Ireland
from sanitary destruction—that Ireland in
America which, according to the New York
Times contributes 88 percent, of the death
of children in the whole number of deaths
in that great city ? They liberate Ireland ! —
Why don’t they liberate these children of a
larger growth more than fatherless, who are
swept daily from among them to the far West,
there to undergo the fate of changlings and
apostatesjamougJran alien people ? (Cheers.)
They arc held out by a portion of tho Ameri
can press as a menace to us here in Canada,
and it is alleged, moreover, tfiat they have
many sympathizers if not actual associates,
among the Irish population settled on this side
of the line. I think they set down their force
in British America at the exact figure of 45,-
000 men. Well, sir, all I can say, is that if
the rest of their figures are so near tbe mark
as these, they are a very formidable body of
enemies to the truth. The arch-bishop of Hal-
lifax assured me that Feniauism is entirely un
known within his jurisdiction. In Lower Can
ada it has neither a local habitation nor a name;
and though, as I said at Wexford, there may
be some of tbe species somewhere among us,
since the number of fools, «re are ’-assured on
good authority, is infinite—(laughter)—yet,
compared to the great orderly, law-abiding
religious mass of toe provincial Irish, they
are not a drop in the budket, nor u bucket in
Lake Ontario. After dwelling at considerable
leogeli on the Feuians, he said, now is the time
of ail others for these Provinces to take a step
in advance, iu order to meet tho express wishes
of our Sovereign, and to avert by a timely
unanimity all possible dangers. Tho text of
the Union is taken up for us, not so much by
men as by events. Every thrill of the tele
graphic wires gives us a reminder not to.dclay
our Union. I speak on this subject withont
exaggeration when I say that in my deliberate
settled opinion the question before' all British
Americans at this moment is, will you unite,
or will you give up your country to another peo
ple and another form of govermeut? (Cheers.)
I impeach no man’s motives who differs from us
iu this conviction, but while I see our situation
so clearly as I do, 1 cannot ceaso to cry out unite,
unite,unite. I have been charged by anti-Unionis's
with saying that the late negotiations with En
gland had brought thes- Provinces to the threshold
of indepondenoe. I said tne Duaea’s imperial
Government had treated wita us as a power, that
they had impressed upon us our own duties and
obligatious as if we stood on the threshold of in
dependence; and if we were ripe lor that condition
—if there was no likelihood of our repeating here
in the north the experience of Texas in the South,
premature independence followed by inevitable
annexation—I do Dot think, if we were really
anxious to go alone, that there w< nld be any d<-
oided hostility to onr doing so shown in England;
but that i he-e great Provinces should be wrested
or filched from the empire, only to be added to
the extint and resources of the Republic; only to
obliterate England from this colony; only to has
ten the establishment of an exclusive continental
system ol trade—this is what, I think, no patriot
of any party, here or at home, oares to contem
plate as tho future of ihese Provinces. (Cheers.)
There are now three North America^ powers
—four, if we include Mexico—the United
States, England and Russia. England holds
still, notwithstanding nil her fornfer losses, the
second place ns an American power, and Rus
sia the third. It is for the statesmen of the
empire to say whether, notwithstanding that by
their act, not ours, we have ceased to be pe
culiarly advantageous to them, whether there
are not strong motives of political strategy felt
at St. Petersburg and Washington, and not
unfelt at London, why they should cling to the
connection * fyr England’s sake as well as for
ours. We all desire to maintain on oar side
that connexion, to do our part manfully by it,
but that we should do so with the best possible
effect, it is.essential, it seems to me, that those
provinces should be placed uuder one central
government. Without union we cannot hare
the intercolonial road, and without the road w«
canuot have direct intercourse with-the mother
country, and without both we are at the mercy
of another government and another people.
