At the conclusión of the argument the court adjourned to 2 o'clook r. H., jrcstordny, at which time a decisión was lookcd for. We thall be b!e to announce t next weet. Thuriday, 4 o'clook p. m. A dispntch to H. J. Beakis, Eaq., 8js : Meisrs. Camfbill, Coolet and Curistianct hoLd the rnilroad aid laws out and out unconatitutional. Graves disten ta.

We don't think thb farce will amount to very much of a tragedy. Tho liberty and catión loving lriihmun are being k'd on by domagogues for pnrgonal end, and how is Ireland to be benefited ? An oocasional skinuish on the Canadi lino can have even no remoto tondency to free Ireland, unles by provoking a war betweon Enp;land nud the United States. Da the politicians who pat the Fenians on tbo biiok (Jcsirc (bat? Tue Dominion ebips and transporta bave finally been permitted to pass through tbe Sault Caual, - provided tbey curry neitber troops nor muuitions of war. We can ace no reason for all this potber, nor any for the distinotion made. Tbis Government has no treaty relations wit ii tbe so-ealled Iteill Goverament, nor ba even recognized the Red River rebela m bollierinti, and re can sce no reason why truopi and munitions should not ge, through the canal en route for Fort Williams. This pandering to tbe Fenians, who are doiDg uotbing to freo Ireland, is working no good to li ishincn and is keeping up a commotion on our border that sooncr or later may breed war.
