FENIANISM TH AJEE RICA. ?BATS THB UNITED STATES FTTT.TTT T.Tn THilB HBTJ TBAL OBLIGATIONS ?-THZia GOOD TAXI'S ELOQUENTLY DEPENDED. In the House of Commons, on the 23d ult., Mr Watkin asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer "whether any representation had been made to tho, Government of Washington in reference to the Fenian organization, and prefaced it by narrating ? number of details relating to the doings and the motives of the society which had oome to his '. knowledge during a recent visit in America. .He ? enforced from these particulars the conclusion ? that Fenianism was foreign hi its Origin, and that "while the Govenunent contented themselves mere? ly with prosecuting Irish Fenians, and neglected io deal with it st its source, they wotddfa.il to put it down. Ho maintained that the Fenians io America were violating the highest international obligations, and from the recent vigor shown by rthe President in arresting the Chilian agent for a "breach of the neutrality laws, ho argued'th at if "proper representations were made by. our. Govern? ment to the Cabinet of Washington they would enow equal TC ?din? es in dealing with the Fenian's, The Chaflee?or-of the Exchequer, after? few i Ttaarke on the questions addressed to him by Col Dunne and Mr. Darby Griffith at an early pe? riod of the evening, said, in reference to tba Pen iana, that the Government had made no represen- , tarions at Washington, and at present had seen no ?COM for doing eo. Ho clamed Mr. Watkin for ] sot Ant laying whatever defisiU information he might have^poseeased before the responsible Gov? ernment, and denned two contingencies in which 1 we should have a right to make such representa- j tiona-one, if the American law had been broken by ito citizens; the other, if an attempt had been ] made to use force against any portion of the Brit- ' lah dominions; and he pointed out that Mr. Watkin had produced no evidence that either of these con- ' tingenciea had occurred. : * Re proceeded as follows: Bat it is not enough . for my right honorable friend to say that the Fe- I niano held A Congress in Philadelphia, and that * they collected so much money in so many years, * in order to raise a pr?somption that the American " Government has. neglected its duties. My honor?. S able friend ought to show that those proceedings have been notorious, and that in the way that they could be made the subject of judicial inveetiga- ? tion. [Hear, hear.] He has shown nothing of Yr the sort. I attended closely towhat fell from hun, ?? and I heard nothine-frojfrnim which showed that ?J any aets had been done id *-owriOftio violation ol S ^ American .law which it waa the fi? of tbe b J?^Ieram,eijt hfWft repressed and pun- J ?ed before ?ie orioary tribunals. [Hear, hear.] a 7Rss???e0d !5W KS ? . deputation1 g t?taSffi?S^ ?ut ixe told ne nothing of J ?h? \Ceu*.tth-t deputation; and I do not J HSn SK be tamself places mach reliance up- M ?* ^n?A to re born the ? ?faenes adverse to the Government of *e Dm- , ??tat?s?beo?ue I think he paid a very high and ? ?jSPoS^MBt to President Johnson ? ? Rtter portion of his speech, ?nd J^to* h ry intimated bis WDTiotion and belief that & be waa a man anxious, to do all ia fiie Ciwer for the maintenance. ot mendly re tiona and fulfilment of every mteirnational obli- " ration. Ae I said, there were two oaeeti in which H we might expect the United Btateo Government ?J to act. No proof has been laid that offences have ? been committed against American laws and not punished. The other case is, that in the event of any attempt at the use of force by these mis goaded men in the United States againet any por- h tion of the British dominions, we nave a right to expect that the Government of the United States will repel and put down any euoh attempt' by the ase of a superior force. No such case has hap- . pened, and therefore we have no right to act. Jj There is, I grant, also the case of personB in pub- 8 lie employment, and the honorable gentleman y says that ten officers were members of a Fenian C Congreos. We do not know what was done in the t. Congress at which those officers took part, but the * honorable gentleman himself stated that General u Sni?e?^Utlsr^ -? concerned, certainly my honorable friend has no jj title to complain of the conduct of the Govern- d ment of the United States. General Sweeney was " dismissed, I believe, upon tho ground of absence o without leave. [Hear, near.] I am not prepared U to condemn such proceedings. I mast know a a great deal more about what Sweeney did, g and about the mode of proving and bring- 8 ing home what he did, before I can pr?same 0 to treat ae a subj ec t either ef coudemna- '< tion or taunt the proceedings of the United f< States. [Hear, hear.] I save no more to say in no- 11 tice of the particular allegations of my honorable " friend. I hold that, where they are vague, they a had much better not have been produced in de- t] bate. I hold that, where they are definite, and n where they tend to show a default of duty-which I I do not admit-on the part of the United States n Government, the fair course toward anv friendly Government is to take care that those allegations ^ B 11 first be placed in the hands of the responai- P I nisters of the Crown that they may do their e f .n regard to them. It is obviously impoesi- c nat upon being produced without notice in t! . House they can be properly or satisfactorily a ated. As regards the question of my honora- c e friend, I have to say that we have not made J ny such representations. Wo have seen cause to o deplore much that has taken place in America, o but we have had no cause which would justify us * in making representations to the Government of a the United States upon the subject. My hoaorable a friend said that it was vain to act in Ireland unless w we deal with the evil at its source. [Hear, hear.] P Well, certainly these are very big words-dealing P with the evil at its source in the dominions of a foreign power-perhaps in vol vingmeasur cs for tho P ascertainment of the facts whictr we would not for ti one moment tolerate or hear of ia this country. c [Hear, hear.] This ie a very large pretension; 0 and when we are so justly anxious to main- ri tain our own country as a sanctuary against P every undue and doubtful demand of a foreign a Government, for God's sak? let as be a little pa- 0: tient at the outset, and a little tolerant in judging o: of the proceedings of the Government of the " United States. ? (Hear, bear.] We have not made 8 these representations. Had we had facts of a na- 0( tore that would 'have justified it at our com? mand, I need not say that they would have been made: but they must have been made in the view of definite ends., To make the mere general re- ^ monstrance which my honorable friend recom- . mends, the mere complaint to the United States 11 Government, of. what is going on in America, the n mere setting forth'the inconvenience arising to ns p from these lawless-proceedings of certaiu Ameri- * can subjects, would hut diminish the dignity of this country. When we have the definite materials r< of complaint, then will be the time; but it is not merely because we ate hurt and wounded by *> hat g is going on, not merely because we - have a right ? to feel a jost indignation against the guilty pro- d moters of such, enterprises, that we should h endeavor to make the United States Government h responsible for what we have reason to believe n they are. unable ty prevent if the case were a inverted, 'and these proceedings took pjaoo in e our own dominion a. [Hear, hear.] We have i confidence ia the United States. [Hear, hear.[ , We believe -it will fulfil its national obligations. ? We have confidence, further, in the public opinion t of tho United States. [Hear, hear.] As raras " we are informed, the public opinion of the United t States, like the. public opinion of England and ' Ireland, condemn these guilty proceedings. We j are told that with that condemnation there is \ mingled in America something of contempt-[hear. | hear]-that the promoters of Fenianism are re? garded as guilty fanatics, whose strength is not proportioned to their zeal or to their evil inten- , tion: and if that be so, it is a matter upon which it is impossible to Bpeak with official knowledge. But obviously it is an important point of policy with respect to interference with tho proceedings of the American Government. With that belief, ii we are justified in entertaining it, the House, I think, will hardly be surprised if I say that tho days are yet too early, and the information as yet by far too crude and immature, to warrant state? ments in this Houso which tend?even by remote inplication, to raise a suspicion of breRch of duty on tho part of an allied and friendly Government. [Hear, hear.] We aro very sore about these things ourselves. We hear that some person in Congress, or somebody in some assembly abroad has made imprudent speeches, and has placed the Executive Government of thur own couutry in difficulty. Well, the tables are now turned. Let us show that, educated in the long habits of freedom, we, the members of this House, have more self command than thc less trained and less practiced representatives of other countries. [Hear, hear.] Let us have some trust and reliance iu the power which this country possesses to preserve order in everv portion of her Majesty's dominicn-in the dignitv and character which never reach a higher point than when they are joined with a patience and endurance unconnected with tho suspicion uf tveakLtib, atO, cn :hc contrary, im^rcaitd firmly. fritix the consciousness of Btrength. Ihat is tho | conree which I trust wo may be permitted to between these two greet countries. Do not I? heedlessly or prematurely BOW the seeds or trust. We do not for ono momont attempt to coal that the seed of this mischief lies in Ame aud that the active agenoy has come from ? but though it is ip. America, we do not bene1 to be of America. [Haar, hear.] It is not genuine fruit of American sentiment, or a ger representation of the American mind. [H hear.] We believed it to be condemned thor* it is condemned here, and, believing that, au the total absence-oLall evidence to the contr let us trust to a friendly Government, which not as yet failed in ito duties, and which we will not fail. [Loud cheers.] Mr. Oliphant gave some amusing informa about Fenianism in America, gathered durit recent visit there, and assured the House that Fenians had no sympathizers in America, bool they were chiefly hewers of wood and drawer water, because they had committed the binn it setting up a separate nationality, and beca 3f their antagonism to the negro. To make representations which Mr. Walkin recommen ?xrald render us as ridiculous in the eyes of Americana aa the Fenians themselves. After a few words from Mr. Walpole, who beg iie House not to continue the discussion. 1 Tom Mr. T. Hughes, who reverted to the subj >f the Alabama claims, contending that our reft o submit them to arbitration ned pr od ucee Oeling of estrangement from ns in America, inbjeot wy dropped. AABt In th? Vatted Kingdom. ,-Two impotent debates on the obligations ioutralartowards a friendly cower at war U ilace in the Knglish House of Commons on I ?d oiaFebroary. Mr."Labouchere, in calling attention to the ,'ffectiVe,-character of the British neutrality la' .o vie wed tho question of English complicity in i itting out af the pirate Alabama and her co ?anions, ane^olicited from several members s tro n treaties to .the Government to reopen t Llabama dainwand have the subject aa tie rac tor ettled by arbitration. To these entreaties t ittorney General tcplied on the part of the gc rument by intima^g his willingness to oooaid be question in friendly communication with tl [nibed States Government. Extra point ai ignificance was given ip the discussion by tl dbaequent proceedings, ?c. which the neutrali f the United States towards England in tl enlan rebellion came in quea&n. Mr. Watkin asked of the Brttiah Government ny representations had been made to Washing >n with regard to the complicity of American ci ?ens in tat) Fenian movement. Mr. {jjadstor. 3plied that her Majesty's Minist?re had ftran inch to deplore, but nothing to complain of, i: 16 oonduot of the f njted States authorities, an *4 therefore made no representations whaiove i President Johnson. Ho begged the House i ode name not to agitate this question at a cri t: il time like the present The discussion, hon rer, was continued for some time longer, an ?turally reverted back to the Alabama claim? jr. T. Hughes, one of the most notable of th sw members of Parliament, emphatically de ared that the present Fenian trouble waa th' atnral result of the course England pursued do ng the American rebellion, and he asserted tha a?f there been nb Alab am as there would h avg be oi 0 Fenians. The news ?0m ireland relative to the Fenian ?port further arrests, but still no fighting. A ntire Fenian Council had been captured m Dub n. Several disturbances of small import ha< Iso taken place, in one of which a policeman ha; een shot by a Fenian named Geary, an Amer; an, and brother of the Head Cork Centre of tha ame. A rumor prevailed and was credited ii fficial circles that St. Patrick's day (March 17 ad been set for the uprising of the Fenians. Proceedings or Congre*?-March 9. The matter of chief importance and signifioanc 1 Congressional proceedings yesterday was th ?nate s action on the proposed amendment to th Constitution excluding negroes from the basis o longreBsional representation in all States when bey are not permitted to vote, which was som imo ago reported by the Reconstruction Com littee, and adopted in the House. But little o im\\i^miMi,iiT^m\tmr receiTed Si ? its support, and Messrs. Sumner. Wilson, Hon ricks, Yates, Cowan, and others also spoke on it lie Senate then proceeded to vote on substitutes fibred for the original amendment, inuludinf hose of Messrs. Sumner, Henderson and Yates ll three of which, in different forms, provided fo: iring the negroes the elective franchise. All tb? abstitutes were rejected, and then the questioc n the proposed amendment itself came up, and tiling to receive the required two-thirds in itt ?vor, it was defeated. The vote was twenty-fiv< i the affirmative, to twenty-two in the negative 'he nays present a queer mixture of Demecrati nd Radicals. Another amendment in place o: tie defeated one, basing representation on the umber of voters, was offered by Mr. Doolittle, ts consideration was postponed till Thursday ext, and the Senate adjourned till Monday. In the Bouse of Representatives a resolution raa adopted directing the Secretary of War to re ort the number of volunteers whoso terms have xpired who are still retained in the service. A oneiderable portion of the day was spent in con [nuod discussion of the Senate bill to guarantee ll peraous protection in the enjoyment of their ivilrigbts, which was finally recommitted to thc udiciary Committee. A long and interesting de? late also took place iu Committee of tho ?Yhole n the bill regulating trade with tho adjoining tritish provinces. Several amendments were greed to; but the matter did not receivo final ction. The Senate bill reimbursing Missouri for rar expenditures was reported from the Appro nation Committee, and its consideration was ostponed for a fortnight. Mr. Stevens asked, but riled to obtain, leave to introduce a resolution to rint ten thousand copies of the evidence taken by tie Reconstruction Committee. During tue ourse of the proceedings Mr. Morrill, Chairman f the Committee on Ways and Moans, stated, in oapouao to a question, that an early report on roposed amendments of the Internal Revenue ct will be made by thai: committee. The roport f tho Commissioner of Immigration and petitions Q various subjeots were presented. To-morrow ie session of the House will again be devoted to eneral debate on the President's Message, re instruction, Ac. About Africa. M. DD CQAILLU recently delivered an address efore the Royal Geographical Society in London, i which he gave a description of his second jour ey in Equatorial Africa. A large audience was resent, among them many eminent men of sci ace. We extract tho following from the published ?port of the lecture : GOKHXAS.-When they reached Olinda, the old lug was very friendly with bim and called him his sweetheart." Still, be was so exacting in his emanda that M. Du Chaiilu told him he thought e loved his goods most. The chief replied that e "loved both." [Laughter.] Here ho had nu ?erous offers of marriage from tho native ladies, U dressed in their best, but the whole were re pectfully declined. From this place he viBitod the takalia Falls, under difficulties, and had an ad enture with gorillas on the road. At the time he ras unwell, and not strong enough to carry his ;un. Thus unarmed, he was walking in advance >f his party, when he hoard a noise among the recs, and cama upon ton gorillas eating berries. They quiokly made for the ground and ran away, jxcept ano ld male, who came towards him to know what was the matter, giving, at the same time, a oud roar. The approach of his mon frightened the animal, which then ran away. b He therefore had reason to modify somo of the opinions expressed in his book, and believed that gorillas are sometimes gregarious.

On tho morning of the 9th, JAMES A. DAWI Esq., Eegister of the Land Office for the Stat Kentucky, in company with Messrs. HARDING, ] TEE, ROUSSEAU, GRIDES, THIMBLE, and SHANK members of Congress, Quartermaster-Gem GEOBGE W. MONBOE, and other citizens of t State, called upon the President. The objeot the visit was to present to Mr. JOHNSON the i ceedings of a mass meeting held at the capital Frankfort, end?Hmg bia veto message. Mr. DAWSON, oAffiing introduced, addres the President as follows : ABDBEBS OF MB. JAMES A. DAWSON. Mr. PBBSIDENT: I am delegated by a mass me ing of tbe citizens of Franklin County, Kentuc held at Frankfort, tho capital of the State, on I 26th ultimo, to present the proceedings there 1 to your Excellency. The meeting was called to give an expression the views of the people upon the policy of ye Administration, and with special reference to I views and principles enunciated in your messi to the Senate, embodying your objections to wi is familiarly known as the Freedmen's Bore bill. It was a meeting of no political party, I ot the people, without regard to past politi sentiments. Men of all parties united in t meeting cordially, heartily, enthusiastically. A allow me to assure you, sir, that these procee inga are not the expression of a single locality the State, bat that they contain the sentiments the whole people of the Commonwealth. Simi] meetings have been, and are being held, evei where throughout the State, and everywhere a your patriotic positions applauded, and the pc pose declared to stand by you in the conflict t tween yourself-planted as yon are on the citad of the Constitution-and those who would st keep that instrument rolled up as a sealed boo and would substitute for it their own impulse prejudioea, and pas dons, in th enactment ando forcement of laws. With you, sir. the people of Kentucky hold thi ;he Union of toe 8tales has not been des trove mat the attempted revolution had no other effe -han to suspend for the time the operation of tl relations between the States and the Governmen md did not destroy or impair them in any degre That this attempt haring been abandoned or sn] iressed, the functions, obligations, and privileg? if the States, whose inhabitants were engaged i he revolt, remained unimpaired, and no less si ired than before. Ta be brief, I may eay th: our views npon these questions, as stated i our annual and special messages to Congresi our public speeches and letters, meet the entire all, and almost numinous approval of the pee ile of tbe State of Kentucky, and that you ma ely :?on them for aa unqualified Support ?f you Ldministration upon the position you ?We thu larked out. I I wili not disguise the fact, for I should be in incere ii I did, that there has been, and still is ome impatience and dissatisfaction felt by th leoplo at what they regard as unkind suspicion Ad discriminations against them upon the par if the Government, which they have euetainet hroughoat the late terrible conflict at such sacri ices as only they and those similarly situated cai mow, They have felt, and feel, that the faot that th Jtate complied with every requiremeut of the aq horities of the Government, whether it met tb ipprobation of her people or not-furnished al he men and all tho money demanded of her; bare? 1er bosom to the shook of battle; gave up he lubstance to the support of the armies; in short jerformed her whole duty-eutitles her to aU th jonsideration shown to the other States, whicl lid no more, and suffered not a tithe compare? ?her. . . - There may be mentioned, as particularly un pleasant and mortifying to her people: 1st The fact that in the restoration of the privi lege of the writ of habeas corpus, that 8tate alone af those which adhered to the Governm-rot, wa Bxcepted. They could not understand tho reason which superinduced that discrimination. Pro i-J.-.0 ^-nvnilrrt in all har hnrHpre. Thl courts were m full, "lowana unrestricted opera Lion, through the medium of which equal and ex act justice could bo secured by all. If her citizeni had been guilty of criminal or other offencei against the Government, speedy and adequate penalties could bo inflicted upon them througl the civil tribunals, an evidence of which is tut Fact that the only conviction for treason, on ac count of the events of the rebellion, which hat seen had in the Union, was ia tho District Cour tor Kentucky. 2d. The continuation of military forces and au? thority in the State, whereby the privileges o the peoplo have been and are infringed; the freo lom of tho elective franchise abridged; the ad? ministration of civil law interfered with un? necessarily and unlawfully, and tho poace and jood order of society disturbed. 3d. The oxteneion into the State, as they main? tain, without warrant of law and without ne sessity, of the authority of the Freedmeu'i Bureau. The freedom of the nogro, and all his rights ol person and property, are not moro secure in any ?tato ia tho Amcricaa Union than in Kentucky. Ho is in no moro danger of lawless or ill usagre there than in any other section of the country. It is certainly true that many of the citizens of the State dill not endorse the mannor of bis liberation; but they ontertain no malice toward him for ac? cepting freedom when proffered. Nor is any in? tention entertained of endeavoring, by any means, to reduce him again to servitude. On tho con? trary, all recognize, as an accomplished fact, his freedom. Being free, he is regarded as entitled to the protection of law, and no one in the State proposes to withhold that protection. The presence of the agents of the Bureau there tends only to produce demoralization and dissat sfaction amongst the negroes, annoyanoe and in? conveniences to the white citizens, and is produc? tive of no good results. Numerous instances of flagrant violation of law, and the feelings, as well ts the rights of its citizens, by its agents might bo given, but I will not detain you with such a re? cital. I venture this single further statement, that the people of Kentucky and tho laws of tho State, if [oft to themselves, will secure the negro in all his rights of person and property; that there are mofe cases of wrongs by negroes upon whito per? sons in the State, which go unpunished by the civil authorities, tnan of wrongs by white per? sons against negroes. Thus, Mr. President, I have given you, in brief, a statemout of the feelings of the people of Ken? tucky. I appeal to the distinguished gentlemen present for corroboration of what I have said. I will only add that these things, doemod by them as grievances, have been borne with pa? tience and comparative silence, because of the confidence they repose in your sense of justice-, and veneration for the fundamental and statute laws of the land. They have been aware of tho overshadowing matters of importance which have been pressing upon your time, and have waited, confident ia the belief that wheu "tho fullness of time" shall have fully come, you will 'Uinroll the Constitution." which will remedy all these evils. They trust that time is not far distant-nay, is sven now. THE PBE8IDENT'S BEPL?. The President responded in substance: It is not needful that a formal or extended reply to what you have said should be made. I tender you, and through you, the peoplo whom you represent, and of the State, my unfeigned thauks for these kind expressions and manifestations of confidence in me personally, and tho endorsement of the policy which shall control my Administration. It is peculiarly gratifying te re?oive these assuranc? es at this particular time. I trust the results will show that tho confidence thus reposed is not mis? placed, and will never become a matter of regret upon the part of those who give expression there? to. Thc present is regarded as a most critical juncture in the affairs of the nation-scarcely less BO than when an armed and org >nized force sought to overthrow the Government. To attack and at? tempt the. disruption of tho Government by armed combination ard military force is no more dangerous to the lifo of tho nation than an attempt to revolutionize and undermine it by a disregard and destruction of the safeguard* thrown around the liberties of the people in tho Constitution. Our stand has been takon; om* course is marked out. Wo shall stand by and dci'ond the Constitution against all who may attack it, from whatever quarter the attack inay como. Wc shall take no step backward in this matter. No other or high? er evidence of our purpose ia this regard can be Riven than has already boon famished. In the '"Jure, as iii the past, wo shall endeavor, in good faith, to make tho administration of the affairs of tho Government conform to tho Constitution in its lotter and spirit; therein ia tho only guaranty lo the liberties of thu peoplo. It fe boped hy an ! adherence to this rule t-> remedy ero long all" ibo 1 irretrjilbrit iee and annoyances to which the people i nave beeii subjected. I Again do wo aseuro you that thc.^o demonstra tiona of confidence and assurances of support up? on the part of the people are exceedingly cheer? ing to us; that we are grateful for and properly appreciate them, and that our wish is to so dis? charge, the traste confided to us as to merit them. I need not say more at present. SPECIAL NOTICES. ] ?vT. B.
