British Columbia may be considered safe,asthe Council in San Francisco F who to lead to viesory n that direction, will not be called pon to leave his’ valuable paper. The Feniand will never accomplish anything by #ié ‘Invasion of Canada, and the scheme aw _ gotten adventurers and confidence men, Pn iy ian Irishmen to subscribe money that they might use it, Even ca Were, secured by the Fenians, the English government would not be weakened in the least and Iteland would be.as far from being independent as at present. Canada under any other rule would be no better off, and the only result that could follow its occupation, would be annexation to. the United States. Ireland would continue under British fale, and the Fenians more a nationality than they now are. But there is no danger that the, organization will secure possession of Canada. The masses of Irishmen lave no desire todo go, and few of them would care to shed blood in’ a struggle which they believe would be so barren in results. The Canadians may at least for a time rest easy, There is no danger to be apprehended from Fenianism. The wolunteers who marched #0 livély.to wards the frontier are now clamoring to get home, and the latest raid.is so -terrible-a—tailure-that the leaders are+ denying any agency in getting it up. They have got their poor dapes into trouble dad are now luatily swearing “they never knew them,” . and the men who vainly hoped and blindly marched to tédeeti Ireland from English rule, are left without funds or subsistence, away from friends and home, to take care of themselves. Decision on RaiRoap Bonps.—A late telegram from Detroit says, by the decision of the Supreme Court, several inillions of railroad bonds, voted by various counties and municipalities in _ the State, are declared illegal. The. Courts refusing t to ‘Tesue a mandamus to cémpel the township boards to issue the bonds voted by the people “to aid certain roads,-4t is expected the Governor will call an extra session of the Legislature to submit an amendment to the Constitution te make bonds voted legal. It is estimated ‘a million and a halfiof these bonds are-in the _ hands of bona fide holders, mostly Eastern capitaliats. Bixmillions dollars of} tecatmont. He is an old resident of bonds haye been. voted and deposited with the State Treasurer. f > Tne Collector for the, San Francisco District hasjust had turned over to him the Income: ‘Pax : list. for 1869, which amonats to $470,000 in currency, on a basie of 834 cepts gold to the dollar. Thig tax, reduced to a gold basis, is about $80,000 lesa than tliat of 1868. The list this year contains a considerable number moré names than that of 1868, but their losses swallowed up their profits, you know. A Democratic papet in New Jersey . tells the National Democracy that “if they expect. to regain the control of the national government, they must be to maintain their position when they have secured it.” “First catch your hare.” eleibibintcdaientin Tae monster organ for the Catholic Church at San Jose has arrived at that eine —THE Des Moines Bulletin figures up taposition with his argument, and has nature to a bill which he knew to be unconstitutional, or expressing an opin}ion in which he was not monet; ——— No longer ago than the jut . tig berate ts 13 ' ented, Gov. Haight Napestea the aati ining fF ar . “Mop many venue” bill, which pro-. Hl. Lesser, « San Francisco peddlar, vides ng a new street, and . widériodk to well goode’'at ‘Bah Jose MV endien n cost thereof upon certain districts of the°city, Which it is assumed . will be benefited by the im‘provement. (Mont. Avenne Act, Sections 11-12.) «Now I say, that it may be that the grading of astreet ia a positive detriment, rather than a benefit, to those charged with the expense thereof ; that the widening of Kearney street, for i stance, may have been an injury % tho#e*assessed to pay for it, or that the new mira seer Avenue may turn out a gréater benefit to other paite of the city than to those which are to contrib ute according to “accruing benefits” vo meet the cost, yet, that no Court can go behind the facts as ascertained by the Legislature, or suggest duubts of the correctness of the data, apon which it acted, for the purpose of defeating the tex,or assessment, Upon the same principle, the assumption by the Legislature of benefits trom the contemplated road, te Kern and other counties, in proportion to the distance traveled by it in each, is final and conclusive upon the Courts—whatever the actual fact may be in connec. tion therewith. And in conclusion upon this point I wish to add—and I do rn With all detérence—that itis scarcento the Governor who signed he ontgomery Avenue bill, to object ‘“ the railroad bills on the ground of want of power to pass them. Upon the public character of roads as. against the opinién-of the Governor,, that such improvements are public for some purpesés and private for others, the review sets aside the sophistry of Haight and by sound logic and law shows that while the title to a road may be private, its. uses are in the main all public. So fer as. the argument is concerned, the reviewer.has a decided advantage over the reviewed. Gov. Haight is placed in the position of misYepresenting the sentiments of eminent writers, whose opinions he pretends to quote, and giving his assent to lawa which in bis arguments are claimed to be unconstitutional. This certainly leaves him in an unenyiable position, which is only rendered more uncom. fortable by the fact that jn coming to his conclusions of law whole theory upon a few exceptional decisions, which are against the tenor of all the decisions on the subject of which he treats. malady has increased so rapidly that it has become necessary to take care of him.
