Confederates in Canada.
--A letter written at a hotel in
Montreal says:
‘
This house is filled with Southern families--
Mr. Southern of
Va., former
President of the Bank of the Republic;
Mr. Westfield, formerly of
Mobile;
F. P. Corbin of
Georgia, though residing for the last 20 years in
Paris;
Captain Magruder, brother of the
General;
J. C. Brune, secession member of the last Maryland Legislature, and upon whose head a price has been set by the
Federal Oligarchy;
Messrs. Dugan &
Meeker, of New Orleans; and several sympathizers from the
Northern States.
There is
a Mr. Young in the city, who has a brother in
Augusta.
A great many families have passed through here on their way to
Europe.
The opinion here is, that
France and
England will soon put an end to the war. God grant it may be so.
