The wealthiest congregation in Ko T York city,
perhaps in the whole country, ie that of the
Church of the Ascension (Episcopal) in tho Fifth
Avenue. Their aggregate inconio laBt year is
shown by tho official returns to hav? been eighteen
million dollars.
Tho Greenville, S. C., Afountameer of Tuesday
last says: "Ex-Gov. B. F. PERRY took his departure
ibis morning' for Washington City, and, we pre?
sume, will be absent a short time only, unless the
Congress of the United States shall happen to
come to their senses unexpectedly and admit
Southern Representatives to their seats during
ibo present month/'
The Pensacola Observer, of tho 27tl ult., says :
"Gen. WINFIELD SCOTT made a br ief visit to tho
Pensacola Navy Yard on Tuesday last. Wo regret
to learn that his feeble health prevented his ming?
ling with the people or receiving- any ono aboard
except tho officials. Tho United States steamer
on which he came, ontorcd port at 6 o'clock P. M.,
on Tuesday, and cleared on Wednesday morning
at an early hour. Tho usual honors were paid
him by both tho army and navy."
The Charlotte (N. C.) Times of tho Gth instant
thus speaks of the Charlotte and South Carolina
Bailroad: "Aq this is aa improvement in which
our entire community is deeply interested, we
?nrrondor, to tho exclusion of other matter, our
space to tho very able and satisfactory reports of
ita President, Colonel WM. JOHNSTON, and bis
able assistants. It will be seen that ?his efficient
officer has been malling great exertions to get the
repairs done, and soon the cars will run through
to Columbia. The condition of the road is all the
most sanguine of tho stockholders could reason?
ably expect. Colonel JOHNSTON is a model Rail?
road President."
The Savannah Herald, ot the 6th instant, men?
tions that "on Saturday the pilot boat Sophia,
Capt. SAG?ES, while cruising off Tybee, discovered
some eight miles at sea an object afloat, which
proved to be a flat containing three negro mon and
two women, with a horse. The party wero sup?
plied with provisions,.antlhad. started-for Daw
x_s_o island, where they designed to settle, but
in their unmanageable craft wero driven to sea,
where they must have perished but for their time?
ly rescue by Capt. SAOUBS. The negroes with their
baggage were taken on board tho pilot boat, and
brought to Savannah yesterday. As it was im?
possible to transfer the horse from tho flat to the
pilot boat, the former was left to the mercy of the
waves."
The Greenville (S. C.) Mountaineer says of the
Saluda Turnpike : "Wo aro much gratified to hear
that this road, from HODGES', over tho moun?
tains, is now in good order, and is considerably
travelled. Thc enterprising contractors, Mosers.
COLEMAN & MONTGOMERY, aro already reaping
some reward in tho way of tolls, and we hope their
contract will turn oat very profitable. They arc
entitled to the thanks of tho whole community for
the promptness and energy they have displayed in
patting the mountain part of the road in repair.
We understand it has been approved by J. L.
WESTMonxLAND, ESQ., who was appointed by tho
Legislature to supervise the ror.d. Our neighbors
over the mountains can now come to tho Green?
ville market, a good one, for all they have to sell."
The Columbia (S._C.) Phcmix, of tho 7th inst.,
mentions that the body of an unknown man was
found on Monday afternoon, on tho road-side, on
the otherside of the river, about three-quarters of
?mile from Guignard's Fewy, by a party of hunt?
ers from Colombia ; and a gentleman who passed
the spot yesterday morning informs us that tho
body is still laying there. Will no one look after
it? A bullet-holo through thu forehead shows
how the unfortunate being carno to his end-but
whether by the hand of the assassin or his own,
of course it is impossiblo to say. Thc remains of
? fire show that he had endeavored to mako him?
self comfortable. From appearances, it is sup?
posed that ho had been dead several days, and thc
pockets of tho dead man had been rifled of their
contents. The deceased was dark complected,
had dark hair, and was dressed in a fancy-colored
.woollen shirt, paper collar, black cloth coat, mole?
skin overcoat, gray pants, and patched boots ; but
neither hat or cap. This ia thc second affair uf
tho kind which has occurred in that vicinity
about two years ago the body ot' a woman having
beon found near there.
The Abbeville (S. C.) Banner of the Gth inst.,
speaking of the condition of affairs in that dis?
trict, states that we regret to discover a feeling
of despondency on tho part of many of our citi?
zens, arising from a distrust of the freedmen-an
apprehension that they will not stick to their
jvork by the faithful performance of the contracts
into which they have entered. We hope these
fears are not well founded, but tho discernment
of our peoplo is keen, and in a matter of such vital
interest to the prosper:'/ of thc country,
they have surveyed well tho different points
and features of the industrial situation, and
their judgment, when well ascertained, is fear?
fully conclusive of thc subject. In thc last
few days, large numbers of negroes have been
taken from the District to tue Weat, principally to
Arkansas and Tenuesscc. Thc wages offered by
these parties are attractive. They have paid as
high as fifteen dollars per hand, and find food and
clothing. Prom tho impoverished condition of
our country, wo cannot compete with those who
plant in the fertile valleys of tho West. Wc must
rely, thcreforo, upon tho stout hands and hearts
of our own people for awhile; and it may be that
in due timo our exhausted country, under thc in?
fluence of white imported labor, will bc resusci?
tated and roclaimed from tbc effects of tbo ruin?
ons system of cultivation which wo have heretofore
practiced.

FRIDAY MOANING, FEBRUARY 9.1866.
THE FENIAN movement, whose importance
had been diminished somewhat by the un?
happy and unbecoming difference between
tho leaders of that organization, lately at is?
sue in New York, has come again to claim a
large share of public attention. Supposing
that the organization was entirely engrossed
in the adjustment of this unfortunate difficulty,
and was unfitted, therefore, for efficient move?
ment in any direction, there was a general
disposition, both herc and abroad, to turn
away from it, to some more obvious and attrac?
tive subject of popular interest. More re?
cently, however, the indications are, that not
only are its powers and purposes not entirely
neutralized by this unhappy difficulty, but it is
again at work, and its movements have been
sufficient to arouse the Canadians upon the
border to a fearful state of disturbance and
alarm. A short timo since General SWEENY,
known as Secretary of "War, and Colonel
ROBERTS, one of the Presidents of that order,
left the metropolis for a lecturing tour through
the rural districts of New York, in the course
of which they are reported to have announced
that before tho 14 Suns of May shall shine-*'
they will have planted the standard of the Irish
Republic upon conquered territory. An an?
nouncement to thc same effect is made in the
National Irish Republic, of Now York, with
the additional declaration that it will have a
flag, an army, a port of entry and exit, a fleet
of privateers, and the tacit concurrence of
France and the United States. In conse?
quence of these announcements, and, it is to
be presumed, of Owher more tangible and sug?
gestive facts, among which is the reported
presence of President ROBERTS and Secretary
SWEENY within the Canadian territory, the
Canadian authorities have become thoroughly
aroused. The banks have sent their funds to
the interior, the regalar troops havo been
hurried to the border, the " sedentary mili?
tia," assumed to number a hundred and fifty
thousand, are being rapidly organized and
put in motion ; and the indications aro, that
whatever be the measures of attack, the mea?
sures for defence will soon become as com?
plete and perfect as spirit, activity and enter?
prise can make them.
Whether Canada be the object of attack,
or whether a hostile movement be, in fact,
intended upon any point, or whether, indeed,
the FenianB have the military means for any
military movement whatever, does not appear.
We have no better assurance of these facts
than that afforded by the disturbance the ap
prehension-ha&OO?&siortftd Rrrrrmg tho Canadian
authorities, and it is quite possible, therefore,
that the whole purpose, at present, is to create
an excitement. In fact, it is to be hoped that
this is BO. It is scarcely conceivable that,
with any means at present in the possession
of the Fenian body, they can make a success?
ful movement upon Canada. There are some,
perhaps, with zeal enough to attempt it, but
it is scarcely possible that the attempt can
be successful. If indulged by our authorities
in the liberty of organizing and moving a
military force from within the limits of our
territory, it is scarcely possible that they can
organize and movo a force sufficient to meet
the hundred and fifty thousand that are ready
to receive them on tho other side. Rut they
will not be indulged in any such liberty. 1
A desultory demonstration will merely in- 1
volve tho sacrifice of those engaged in it. i
Even that may seriously compromise this i
Government with the Government of Great i
Britain ; and, in every view of the subject, 1
therefore, the attempt is seriously to bo de- ]
precated. j
It is an ungrateful task to dash the spirits j
o? men, inflamed to great achievements, by |
tho suggestions of prudenco ; and those things '
to which they can really attain are of little ]
interest if they are not also those which they <
desire ; and it were well, perhaps, when men !
are ardent in thc pursuit of au object, even
beyond their reach, not to disgust them by
tho sjggestion of an alternative. Rut tliis
precept of prudence we will disregard for
the present, to tho extent, at least, of ex?
pressing tho wish that thc present zeal and
agencies for tho liberation of tho Irish nation
should be turned to a form of substantial ben?
efit to the Irish people. They Buffer, and
must suffer there, not alone from the oppres?
sions of tho English Government, but from
thc pressure of their own overcrowded pop?
ulation. And if tho oppressions of tito En?
glish Government were removed-which, to
say the least of it, is not a probable occur?
rence-thc suffering from tho other causo
would still continue. Rut of both evils tho
people of that island may bo relieved by a
removal to this country. They would hero
find "room and verge enough'' for every
power they may possess ; they will have an
equal voico in tho making of the laws, bo
they bad or good, by which they are to bo
governed ; and if, therefore, the Fenian order
have sympathy for tho people of Ireland,
and the means at all adequate to a successful
military movement upon it, they might apply
them to a better purpose. They could, with
such means, transport to this country a very
large portion of those who would be bene?
fited by the change, and would more cer?
tainly secure their welfare and happiness by
applying them to that object. That move?
ment, as far as it might go, would, at least,
bo safe and salutary. No lives would bo lost,
and no money thrown away; while the other
J movement, if their means and agencies were
even ten timea greater than they are, will he
certainly expensive. Blood and money both
must flow if it Bhall ever he seriously at?
tempted, and the most sanguine cannot say that
it will certainly be successful. In sober earn?
estness, therefore, we would urge our Fenian
friends to rather use these means to bring the
Irish people to the South. There are lands
here as green as any of their native island, of
which homesteads may be purchased with
the labor of a single year. There would
be no costs or perils in the enterprise ; the
process would sustain itself; the emigrant
could soon refund the cost of transportation,
and an Irish State could be established here
that would soon transcend the possible glo?
ries of the parent isle.
ONE OF THE heaviest institutions in the
line of new8paperdom in the United States,
is the New York Nation. Its writers are
heavy, its articles are heavy, and its capital
must necessarily be heaviest of all, inasmuch
as it requires the largest kind of sinking
fund to stand the pressure of tho great pecu?
niary losses this heavy establishment must
sustain, if it pays its writers heavy prices for
their heavy articles.
But these heavy articles havo nothing but
their weight and length to recommend them,
inasmuch as they are the dullest, most un?
meaning, most senseless trash that can be con?
ceived. But there nre exceptions to all rules;
and this paper, noted for heavy articles,some?
times publishes very light ones-heavy-head?
ed, "tis true, but written by exceedingly light?
headed penny-a-line writers. The Nation is
now publishing a series of nonsensical letters
from an imaginative correspondent, of which
(the letters and tho light-headed writer) they
are so exceedingly vain, that they boast
about the former and refuse to givo the name
of the latter.
These letters, which aro entitled "Tho
South as It Is,;' and which ought to be enti?
tled " The South as It Is'ut,"' have been as?
cribed to Mr. CARL SCHURZ, who might very
well have written them ; but tho editor of
the Nation denies that Mr. SCHURZ is tho
author, and adds, that there is not the slight?
est uso for anybody to endeavor to find out
who is. Now we would inform tho Nation
that no one has any desire to know the name
of the imaginative correspondent, who, 60
long as he can draw on tho Nation for his
five dollars a column, or whatever it is, thinks
it his duty to draw us largely on his powers
of invention in writing letters from the South
which he is anxious to make as interesting
as possible. The imaginativo author of the
articles entitled " The South as It Is," in?
forms the New York Nation and the nation
at large, that since August last a traffic in
negroes has been carried on between several
points on the Southern coast and the Island
of Cuba. The correspondent says the busi?
ness is remunerative ; we have no doubt that
it is-if it is true that it is carried on. The
l?ght-hoaded correspondent of the heavy
headed letters proceeds to state that we all
despise the Yankees, and quotes remarks
which ho heard-or imagined he heard
from three or four men, ono or two old women,
and two or three young children. Thcso re?
marks are considered by him as exponents of
the public sentiment, and aro retailed out to
the Nation as such. There is no uso for us
to endeavor to set things to rights, so long as
these highly imaginative and salary-drawing
correspondents remain among us, to write
such letters, calculated to belie us and our sen?
timents in tho eyes of our Northern brethren.
If this identical correspondent were engaged
Lo-morrow at a larger salary by tho New York
Daily News, or the Metropolitan Record, wo
Feel assured that the tenor of his lettors would
bo entiroly different. Wo know enough
ibout the newspaper business to bo awaro of
Lhe fact, that a correspondent always writes
in a strain that ho knows will be most agreea?
ble to the editors of the paper with which
ao corresponds and from which he draws his
pay. This is the great secret of the tissue of
;ro6s misrepresentations which creep into
:be Northern papers of ultra political views.
This is tho secret of tho heavy-headed articles
by the light-headed correspondent from Ma?
son, Columbus, Ga., and elsewhere ?a the
South.
THE MASSACHUSETTS Anti-slavery Society
bold its thirty-fifth annual meeting in Bonton
last week. Slavory being abolished, the
Board of Managers, seconded hy WM. LLOYD
GARRISON in a speech, recommended the dis?
solution of the Society as an organ without a
function. WENDELL PHILLIPS opposed the
dissolution, and was sustained by a strong
vote, including THEODORE TILTON, of tho In?
di pendent.
WENDELL PHILLIPS is .-<> invariable arid
authentic n forerunner of tho Republicans
that it is always profitable fur those who
would penetrate their designs io read his
speeches. On this occasion he is reported by
the Boston Journal to have said :
"Tho Anti-Slavery ?Society never undertook to
abolish chattel slavery ; they did not begin with
that idea in their mind. Ita object waa to put tho
negro race on an equality with tho white race. ?
* * CHARLES SCMNF.U is the representative of tho
idea that before one Southern Stateshall bc ad?
mitted te Congress tho black man shall stand on
an equality with the white, and have the right of
suffrage. * * Jfr. "PHILLIPS offered, in addition,
a resolution indorsing tho proposed Constitatiuual
Amendment, which would give Congress Ibo power
to regulato thc rights of American citizens, aa a
groat atop in tho right direction; and another
which atatcd that the President had broken his
solemn vow to bo a Mosca to thc colored race, had
been false to tho cause of liberty, and that bia
courso deserved the rebuke of every friend of lib?
erty, aa ho waa its enemy."
THE Macon, Ga., Telegraph aaya that tho negroes,
in that vicinity are dying off with thu moat fright?
ful rapidity. "During tho preceding week about'
live hundred bad died in that city alune, out of a
black population of only eight thousand. Pre?
vious to tho war tho weekly mortality in tho same
number had only been about twenty.
