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
