The invasion of Treland, and the conquest of the "first gem of the sea" by the finest pesantry in the world," aided by its offscour Ings from every point of the compass is a stale story ; even Fenianism has nothing of novelty in its conception, and the big fleet which General Sweeney has promised shall shortly be affoat is what most. of us have read about any time these last seventy years. Why, then, with all these antecedents surrounJing should we be surprised that the proposed acâ€" tion of the Brotherhood should have for its point d appui s border city of historical reâ€" pute for raids and aggressions" upon its neigh. bors? Bufflalo was the headâ€"«uarters of the sympatihusers in our troubles of ‘37 and ©38, and it is only consistent with its traditions that it be selected as the point from which Canads is to be assailed as a preliminary movement in the conquest of Ireland.

There can be little doubt of the identity of the certain territory alluded to. But if there were a doubt about it the Fenian organ of New York put it to rest wher it says : #We tell the American republicâ€"and they have heretofore found us pretty accurate proâ€" phets in everything relative to the Fenian causeâ€"that, before ten weeks there will be<â€" somewhereâ€"an Irish Republic existing on the face of the earth, with a ‘flag, an army, a port of entry and exit, a nary of privateers and the tacit encouragement both of France and the United States in the prosédution of belligerent agts against Great Britain. Let no one ask us for the presentâ€"where this Re public will be located, for we cannot answer. It must be called a Republic, .to warrant the fAag and fleet, but will really only be used as an immediate basis of operations for the transâ€" fer of active hostilities to the Canadian and Irish soils A word to the wise is enough.

The following extract will serve as a specimen : " It ap that this Reâ€" public is about to attemptâ€" a rivalry with the old monarchies in the establishment of a new" nobility, based not upon hereditary titlea, as in the old world, but upon what the individuals are gupposed to represent on the books of the Internal Revenue assessor. A committee of the New York Chamber of Commerce waited upon the President the other day, as our Washâ€" ington correspondent relates; and sent in their cards, with the number of millions they were worth appended to their names ; for example, «F. 8. Winson, President Mutual Insuranec (Company, representing seventeen million dolâ€" lars; R. H. Burdell, President of the Efie Railroad, reg;rcoent.ing sixty millions ; H. B. Clailin, the largest merchant on the globe.‘ This immdiately. suggests the idea of novel titles of nobility. Instead ef using the prefix of <« Lord,! or * Sir, or the affix of ‘Baronet,‘ ‘K.C.B., and so forth, we miiht have inâ€" scribed on the:utdl of our nobility, W.

If the | next quarter be but proportionately davorable, | we can hardly fail to find ourselves in the 4 receipt of two millions more than we anticiâ€" | pated. _ It wifl be an casy task to reduce taxaâ€" | tion, and when we consider what an immense | nerease in the comforts of the people must be | represented; by that additional ten {milllon | pounds of tea whiufu we have spoken, we may | well rejoice at any further opportunity of parâ€" | suing the game beneficent policy. | Yot, per i | haps, with this continual advance in our inâ€" come it would be prudent to pay more attenâ€" . | tion thwm have done of late to the reduction ; l of our en ous debt. ‘The morality of makâ€" Tax, and the Miscellancous itoms, _ Of these, the third is not deperdent upon the general productiveness of the year, and for the quarter it does not appear among the items of decrease Customs, of course, supply the: principal flimâ€" inution of Revenue, but the general recovery is> proportionately remarkrble. _ The loss of duty on tea alone was estimated at £1,868,000 for the year, or £1,401,000 for the nine months and on an average £467,000 for the quarter. Instead of these results the wholedecrease on tle Customs for the quarter is but £202,000, or scarcely more than half the estimated deâ€" crease on tea alone ; for the nine months it is but £865,000, and but £828,000 for the . whole year, _ This remarkable recovery is further illustrated by the Board of Trade: Returns for November, which show that the epntry of tea for home consumption has been more than 10 per cent greater in the first cleven months of 1865 than in the corresponding period of f}m. |‘ The: home consumption for that period in | 1864 was 71,803,669 pounds; for the year just l closed it was 91,082,271 pourds. _ The other itm â€" of â€" diminution is in the ‘ Property | Tax, upon which the reduction of a> third in the Income Tax is now in full operation, Yit the loss for the quarter is but £129,000, on a total of a million and a balf.
