Fiae aso Narrow Escare.â€"About midnight on Wednesday last a fire broke out in a small frame cottage near Hawksville, which came near being attended with fatal consequences. The building was occupied by an old couple named Winn, who had & very narrow cscape from perishing in the flames. .A correspondâ€" â€" ent says:â€"On going out into the street after 11 o‘clock, 1 saw & light, but could not at first ascertain its location. A person whose notice I attracted went with me in. the direction of Winn‘s, when in plain sight the flames burst forth. We hastened to the spot, broke open the door and hastily took out the old people, â€"â€"who were in a tound sleep,â€"their. bed and a few articles of furniture. _ Fifteen minutes later and they would certainly have perished, as the very strong wind fauned the flames into a furious state. 1t was a sad sight toâ€" see the old couple sitting on their bed, surrounded by a few articles of furniture, in the fierce cold blast, and their little home only a few minutes before so comufortable crumbling into ashes. ‘Mr. Balzer Schneider, a near neighbor, kindly took the old people and their few effects to . ‘Pomoxso Tsaâ€"Two women named Mrs. Larose, and Mrs. Dagenais, were poisoned yes. terday, by drinking freely of anarticle of cheap tem broughC from an itinerant pedlar. â€"All the ptoms of narcotic and acid poison | were mfwd. Dr. Monagan was called in at‘ll ‘o‘clockat night, and by the use of medicine, and by emptying the stomach, has perhaps saved the life of these two persons. â€"Mrs. Larose fell down insensible, and remained in a state of great stupor for several hours. Dr. Monagan very carefully examined the toa, and after spending several hours in testing, found mol copper and lenves of degitalis or two very deadly poisons. It is said that this tea was gathcred upon the ice on the river by some men, and sold extenâ€" sively in the suburbs asalso in the Quebec suburb portion of the city. Immediately upon finding the state of matters, Dr. Monagan very properly seut his ‘servant boy to caxtion all the small grocers in that ncighbourhood, and the result was thg a Mr. Bictte, who keeps a ry, burnt twentyâ€"four pounds of this tea. m'l have since destroyed larger quantities. â€"â€"Monireal Transcript 12(h Axotuzr Fias.â€"On Sunday morning about two o‘clock, a fire ‘broke out in rear of the store of Mr. Alexander Bruce, grocer, on King street, and before subdued, it completely gutâ€" ted the entire building. â€" The flames were first discovered at the window in rear and spread very rapidly, leaving very little time for Mr. Bruce to save his family who occupied the upper floor, let alone any ofhis gouds and furniture. A portion of the latter were rescued in a datnaged condition. ‘The firemen ‘worked at their engines with a will, and saved the adjoining buildings. Alarms were again sounded at six o‘clock and ten o‘clock, and in the former instance the flames broke out afresh, and required renewed exertions to exâ€" them. In the latter case a couple of of water sufficed to put out all fire. _ At one time the High Bailift and Police did exâ€" cellent service, and our worthy Police Magisâ€" trate worked at the engines like a brick. .

There may be, and doubtless are, many appeals for deâ€" serving objects, but to catch young men at a digadvantage, where escape from acquiesence is all but impossible, partakes something of the character of [picking their pockets.

Now, we believe in all honesty that the Americans possess no ndvantage which they could offer to the British Provinces, equal to the fiisherâ€" ies. The direct value which is yearly, taken out of British waters by American fishermen, is far beyond the protfis of any privilege they have it in their power to offer us. _ Mr. Morâ€" rill ant his friends have been carrying what they call a Reciprocity Bill thrgugh Congress; but we fail to see any amendment to that exâ€" traordinary fiscalsystém, which prevents the possibility of any freedom in the commercial inte e of the two countries. It is clear mamahfiw of the Unifed ;States is not likely to facilitate the object ofinternationâ€" al trade, and that we have nothing!left but to look to our own interests and to pursue an independxl course of action. Some ten days or more since we published a proclamation giving notice that on and after the seventeenth of Marchysit would be illegal for American fishermen to ply their occupation in ‘British waters as heretofore under the Treaty: TRIVELLERA® DIRBCTORY, The ldygitlgnion of Nova Scotia has we perâ€" ceive already given attention to this imporâ€" tant subject.

This report was succeeded by a conference with the Legislative Council, â€" which will, we underâ€" stand, be followed by an Address soliciting the aid of the Home Government in protecting a branch of industry involying Imperial conâ€" siderations, as well as Colonial interests. The gentlemen who have this matter in hand should not loge # day in preparing their Address, and submitting the Bills required to arm the local authorities for the efficient protection of our fishing privileges. _ The Reciprocity Treaty expires on the 17th of March, and immediately thereafter we should be in a condition to seize and confiscate all thes passers within the limits defined by the |â€" reaty made between Great Britain aud the nited States in 1818.© The Americans, withâ€" t sufficient cause, and we fear in bad temper, ve thought proper to abrogate the Reciproâ€" city Treaty, which, duting the thitteen years it has been in operation, has proved mutually awiventageous to all partics, and nothing is now left tothese Colonies but to adopt such measures as will foster and develope the reâ€" sources with which they have beenâ€" blessed by a kind Providerice, and search out ntw markets for the products of their industry. We wish our neighbors well. We desire to cultivate the mostintimate commercial relations with our American friends, consistent with our obligations to the Mot‘;er Country ; but when they réfuse to reciprocate our feelings and sentiments, there is no: other course, consistent with "720" self tespect, but an attitude of self refiance and independence. Much as we desire free commercial intercourse with/ the thirty millions of people who haye been, and ought still to be, our natural customers, we feel that we can live without them.

The deceased was born on New Year‘s Day, 1806, in Invernesâ€" shire, Scotland. His father, James Grant, Esqr,, was a member of the ‘Scottish Bar, and well known by his able work on the Gaelic language, for which in 1819 he obtained ‘from the Highland Society: of Scotland, the first premium. t f Dr. Grant was the youngest of a family of six (four brothers and two sisters)â€"his eldest brother was Chicf Judge of the Court in Calâ€" cutta, â€" His other two brothers (Captain Grant and Dr. Grant) were in the British service in India,. Of the family none now survive save his two sisters who reside in Scotland. Dr. Grant emigrated to Canada in 1829, and after a short residence in Montreal â€"settled in Glengarry, where ho was actively engaged in the practice of his profession for a period of thirty years. Dr. Grant was well known throughout the Province as a gentleman who took a lively interest in the leading political questions of his day, and was always enabled by that case and readiness of expression . with which he was gifted, to give a clear and lucid ’ explanation of such topics as came under dis ' cussion. } Two years ago Dr. Grant removed to‘this city, and entered into practice, since which time he enjoyed the patronage of many kind friends, who admired him alike for his profesâ€" sional ability and gentleness of disposition. About ten months ago Dr. Grant was scized with & serious and painful discase, from which he was confined to bed for q period of ten months prior th his death, He|was Consulting Phyliciln to the General Prphvhnt Hospital. His death will be a source of regret to the many with whonthe was acquainted, not only in Ottawa, but also in the Counties of Stormont and Glengarry, where the most active part of his days were spent.

As we are well aware that money can never replace many of the yaluables lost, we hope that this tribute of qur respect may be regarded less in a pecuniary point of view than in a desire to evince our esteem for you personally, We carnestly pray that you may long be spared to labor in the vineyard of the Lord, and may the Lord of the harvest continue to crown your labors with success. + _ REPLY. f Lapres,â€"It would be impossible for me to express the feclings which arise on this auspicious occasion.. Be assured, that whilst I thoroughly appreciate the handsome offerâ€" ~ing now made to me, I more especially honor the motive in makingâ€"it. Our late troubles have evoked a spirit of sympathy which J did not think existed. All classes, as well as all religionists, have been forward to express their kind attention, not only in word but deed. _ I knew that there existed a strong affection for me as the Clergyman of the Parish, but I had no idea that it was of so universal a character. The spirit evinced has been of a sterling kind, for I am sure that my plain, uncompromising manner, ever since I have been in this Parish, maintaining. inviolate the principles of the United Church of England and Ireland has often been misunderstood and perverted ; but I have never done or said anything with a #pirit of opposition, or for the purpose of proâ€" ducing illâ€"fecling, but my great effort has been to make people at once good citizens of an earthly kingdom ‘and of the heavenly.. I trust | that so long as I shall be spared to preside over you that I shall find you able assistants in the great work stlll lying before us. Again, in returning you my most hearty thanks, allow | me to refer to the great amount of selfâ€"denial | attendant or your part in collecting this lib= eral and handsom« offering. ) (From New York Times, March 10.) Our Northern neighbors are apparently enâ€" joyin;sthe unusual luxury of a sensation in their dull winter months. It is nearly thirty years since they had anything like it. They evidently imagine that the Fenians, in a body, are after them with sharp sticks ; and twenty or mi;t&of their smart yeomaury have been put under arms to mceet any possible emerâ€" gency. There can be no harm in these miliâ€" tary pre{:ultioul across the line ; there may "be much wisdom and forecast in them. The Aocal Provincial force of Canada has not, thas far, been severely taxed for the protection of the Provincial hearths. It was supposed to be reorganized in 1851, under Lord (tey'- adâ€" ministration of the Colonial Office, when ncarâ€" ly the whole of the Imperial Ordance property was handed over to the Colonists on the conâ€" dition that they should tax themselves to make military provision for such a crisis as seems now to have arisen. THE BRITISH AMERICAN PEOPLE : AND FENIANISM. : 4A CONCERT AND DONATION The British Government, up to the present . date, have not had the best of this bargain: During our long civil war, there was no inâ€" crease in what is called the local volunteer force of Canada. Even when what is historiâ€" cally called the " Trent Difficulty" occurred, there were fewer volunteers in the Province than there were in 1856, during a time of proâ€" found peace. . On the other hand, the British taxâ€"payer had to submit to an additional burâ€" den of some fiftecn or twenty millions of dolâ€" lars, to increase the, "regular" army insthe Provinces. A small organization of " prevenâ€" tives" were put on the frontier for a month or two, just as we were winding up the war ; and to provide these with rations may possibly have cost the Canadian Government a few hunâ€" dred thousand dollars. A The Government have not, thus far, actively interfered with these Fenian people, because their procecdings hitherto have been so essenâ€" tially of the character of burlesque. And even this border scare " is as likely as not to subâ€" side before the close of St. Patrick‘s day. But if the necessity should arise for the United States government to assert the supremacy of the municipal law of the country, that duty will be loyally performed, even if our lately 4 neutral " friends are the first to profit thereâ€" by. . Meanwhile, if there is any patriotic spirit or pluck left to the Provincials, they ought to make short work of any Fenian demonstraâ€" tion, whether organized among themselves or elsewhere. : Thereis much truth in the above ; but, of course, a New York journalist could not speak of Canada without injustice and misrepresenâ€" tation. Every fool must know that "twenty or thirty men " is a mere burlesque ; and, that with regard to the Trent affair, one hundred and fifty thousand volunteers offered their services within a few weeks from the commencement of a threatened danger.â€"En‘s, Nots.

They had all heard of what is callâ€" 1 ed the Fenian movement in the United States, and their avowed object, the invasion of these Provinces, and the plunder of their inhabitants. The information which the Government posâ€" sessed as to the movements of these men: was such that, as a measure. of precaution it was deemed necessary to call out & portion of the Volunteer Militia for the protection of the frontier ; and a large number from these localiâ€" ties had marched to the front. In many inâ€" stances the men thus suddenly called nway had left fdmilies without any uate provisâ€" jon for them while absent, and ie would sugâ€" gest to the Grand Jury the propriety of taking this case into consideration, and by their preâ€" sentment recommend the County and the Township Council to make somé appropriation of their funds ‘for such a purpose. If they needcd any assistance in the matter, the Counâ€" ty Attorney, Mr. Dartnell, would be at their service, and he hoped the aid ould not be needed for any length of time. ‘They would also inspect the gaol and embody in their presentâ€" ment any obscrvation which they might have to make in respect of its management.
