Many seem to assume that it is entively Irish in its nature and composition. This is a very great error,. Fenianiam, as it at present exists upon this continent, is the result of the late civil war in the far more than it is the fruit of bad m«mmm Ireland, ‘The American war was not lke an international quarrel, fought out between two regular stamiling armies,. Nearly two millions of men, a very large proportion of whom were Irishmen and as it chanced Irish Roman Catholics, laid aside their ponceful «vocations and became soldiers. ‘The habits of their former life were for gotten, the excitement and adventure of a military career had charms for many of them which were not easily abandoned when the war came to an end. Thus a runm of unsasy adventurous spirits, renâ€" der.d totally unfit for business pursuits, were turned wlrift all, over the Republic, and it was with men of this kind that Foâ€" nianisam, as it now exists, first originated.

The great evil connected with Spain‘s government of the island of Cuba, has arisen from the fact that the Home authorities have simply looked upon the colony as a place where the noeedy rela tives of Spanish politicians and hidalgoes coulkl be provided with appointments, and be kept in afftuent ‘idleness. The prosperity of the islund, the happiness of the native inhabitan}y, these are mattors which do not appear to have concerned the Spanish authorities at all ; to keep possession of Cuba, and to make the most they could out of it, in the shay e of patroâ€" nage and customs‘ revenues,, these have been their only aims,. _ Under these cirâ€" cumstances, it must be acknowledged that if the Cubans were to take up armsagainst the Spaniarnds and endcavour to throw of) the yoke of the lothuca-:xq'â€"n be natural that other people those who love rebellin for rebellion‘k sake would sympathize with them. The fact is, however, that it in only a section of the Cuban people that have rebelled. The inhabitants of Havana and the large cities and towns of the island are almost unanimously loyal to Spanish rule ; the rebels are for the most part from the mountains and the rural districts, most of them illiterate men, who neither expect nor hops to see Cuba independent for any length of time, but annexed to the United States, _ This thot being known rsenders the better clusses more loyal to Spain than they otherwise would be. : Many of them, perhips we ought to say a majority of them would rejoice to see Cuba independent, were there any posmbility of her remainâ€" ing «1o, but have no dâ€"sire to become anâ€" ne xed to the United States‘with whoso peoâ€" ple they have little feeling in common. It may be sslf " if only a amall and uninfuen binl _ class of Cubans is in arms against Spain, how is it that the rebslilion has been so long protract od ; how is it that Spain has not been able to put an end to it before. this ?" The question is a natural onse, but to anyone who is at all acquainted with the interior of Cuba, and with the climate and productions of that beautiful islund, this will scarcely be a matter of â€"»urprise. The Cuban rebels, like the Cretan insurgents three years ago, have their hend quarters in the almost inaccessible recesses of the mountains of the interior, where no troops ean follow them. From thence cccasionalâ€" ly when an oppontunity offers they anlly forth, seize perhaps upon a Spanish con, voy, or surprise and cut the throat« of a Spanish picket, and then betak® themselves to their mountain fustnesses again, before cither Spanish regulars or the loyal Cuban voluntsoers can be brought agninst them. All such eseapades are of course magnified by the correspondents of American news papers into sanguinary conflicts and glort ous victorics. The interlor of the mountainâ€" ous region in which the rabels mike thew home is well wntered, and the nurrow val lies, with their ‘steeply sloping sliles, are rich with tropic fruite andl Nowere, Thore hn little need for any commissariat where the gifts of Naturenre strewn around in such lavish profusion, and the clear fresh bresseo from Cuban insurrection, and for the decided stand which Je made against very great pressure brought forward in order to in duce him to recognize .the robels as belâ€" ligerents. _ As wo remarked. a fow days aince, there exists in the United States a certain noisy) and influential party who sympathizo with rebellion everywhere, except rebellion in, the Southern States ‘dlhl’qh.. If a man will but set the 1“&! authorities at defiince, he becomes at once in the eyes of theso Americans a hero while ho lives, and a martyr when he dies. The history of Spanish rule in Cuba is not by any means a pleasant one ; and it forms a strong con trast to the mild beneficient «way which Great Britain exercises over her colonies. The wrongs which the rebellious colonists of 1776 endured at the hands of the Britâ€" T It must be acknowledged that Presitent Grant is entitled to a considerable amount of eredit for his action in reference to the PRENIDENT GRANT AND THE CUBANX REBELLILONX. _ We agreo with our Toronto contemporâ€" ary in thinking that anything likely to enâ€" cournge see or sectarian feeling can not be too fully avoided, but we cer tainly see in Mr. (YConmor‘s letter which can hyve any such tendeney. _ The lesson which he has always endesvoured to teach his is, that whatover former ditf@rences may have divided us, here we are ns one people ; that whatever our religion or race may be; we must be Canadhans.amd Canmlians« only,; «o far as our national policy is concerned ; that wo must lom#t part of one gro«t community, whose duty and proud distinktion it is, to build up on this continent a nation whose civil and religiouns liberty shall ‘be their greatest boust, and where every man shallk have a right to worship his Maker, in the manner which best accords with the dictates of hi «l policy have fostered, and which event willy will prove a groat source of trouble to the United States.

It is by the encourngement of private enterprise that Great Britain has attained her present position. The bwlding of ships, like every other manufucturing inâ€" dustry, can only be kept alive by enabling shipâ€"builders to compete with those of flhlunun-plaudvm‘ terms ; by rendering it possible for them to purchise all their materials at the most ecomomical rates, The late Sir Robert Peel smid that the great secrot of commerâ€" clal success comsisted in "buying in the cheapest market, and selling in the dear est." If an American shipbuilder has to pay haif as much again for all his materials as the English shipbuilder does, he cannot, by any possibility, be expected to compete with him. _ In the year 1860, the tonnage nageo of Greatâ€" Pritain‘s commercial marine . foots up to something over four and threeâ€"quartersfmillions : probably by the end of the year it will amount to Hve millions of tons ; while the tonnage of the United States is reduced to one and a half millions, or rather less than oneâ€"third that of Grest Britain. One of the British East Indian companies runs more steaumers than all the American ocean Mw&.‘nwwb it has fortyâ€"nine while America has only thirty vearsls.

But it is worthy of remark that the falling of hs The Cuban rebellion does not in any on ; piuticulat answer this description, and were President Grant to recognise them, Spain would â€" regurd such action asa carms belli, and probably declare war against the United States It is inposmible to say how such a strife might eand, for it must be remembered that it would be entirely â€"a naval war, and it w very questronable whether the American nary, though manâ€" ned by brave and experienced seamen, is ecapable of coping with that of Spain. The monitors, which are" excellent for coast and harbour service, would probably keep their ports secure, but there are some fine «on going ironcluds in the Spanish navy wluch the Americans would find formidâ€" ablo L.es.

Theretore the special organization called Fonhnhmumnuiuoxuganoq became known and its character ‘understood, was, as its continental parent and prototym had been, conderpned by the Catholi The first is, that Fenianism is not a Caâ€" tholic institution ; nor has it the sanction or approval of Catholic authority. On the contrary it is in its essential characteristics simply atheistic ; and more inimical to the There are are two reasons of omnipotent force, why the Irish Catholics of Canada do not sympathize with Fenianism and especially with that phase of it in the Uniâ€" ted States, which consists of threatening the peace of Canada and marring its prosâ€" perixoâ€"mo plain reasons, why such a feelâ€" ing should not be attributed to them. â€" And t.houfh his opinions and prejudices may be ified by the circumstances of his changed po-ition} yet in the main they continue, at least for a long time, unâ€" changed. ‘ The mil‘fivemment in Ireland which oppressed Catholics and caused. them toie discontented and frequently rebelâ€" lious, made the Orangemen prosperous, contented and lo‘yul; because the governâ€" ment consisted of discrimination in their favor. They were in short the favored and dominant class. The government and acts of government which were most favorâ€" able to the Orangemen were the most opâ€" pressive to the Catholics. The fallacy consists "of applying a conâ€" clusion dedJucted from premises of a certain character to premises of an entirely dif. ferent character. This can, I think be mn_ge clear and satisfactory. 8o, by force of that habit of mind, the Orangemen in Canada and otb‘:l in social communion with them, have sugpected the Irish Catholics of Canada, and attributed to them sympathy with Fenianism, by reaâ€" sou of its professed object being the liberâ€" ation of Ireland from British rule. But this attribute is an aâ€"priori deduction from false premises. * Hence the Orangemen acquired the mental habit of attributing disloyalty to Catholics, as a normal condition of the Catholic mind. 1. O ition of interest created o i» tion%[;of‘eelmg from which arose -tfit';p:d enmity. The Orangemen being in possesâ€" sion of and enjoying the favors of governâ€" ment supported it, fand being warmly atâ€" tached to that which gave them ascenâ€" dancy, they attributed the opposition and discontent of the Catholics to a perverse and rebellious spirit, en{qndored in them by their religious principles. This is quite natural ; for a change from one place to another does noi even though mighty waters roll between, ge a man‘s nature, nor does it usually change his prinâ€" giples.. . {: > * Orangeism in Canada is a plant from Ireâ€" land ; and it possesses and exhibits on the new soil much of, if not all, the qualities, good and bad, which distinguished .it in the old. Orangemen in Canada, being mostly from Ireland, possess, probably not all, but most of the prejudices which they had in the old country, relative to Catho:â€" licity and Catholics. As they thought and reasoned there, with respect to Catholics and Catholicity so they are prone to think and reason here. rake ug the embers of old strifes, but to trace the wrong, of which I comp‘ain, to its source and elucidaté my view of it. I will try to expiain my meaning. The existence of the suspicion, to which 1 allude, is, I af‘prehend, attributable, mainly, if not wholly, to Orangeism.

It is unreasonable to presume that the Irish Catholic is less attached and devoted than any other, to that which secures to him and his family the enjoyment of life and liberty and the pursuit of happiness ; the enjoyment of civil and religious liberty.
