VOTUME VI.-NUMBER 7881 " CHARLESTON, S. C., THURSDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 27, 1868. [EIGHTEEN CENTS A WEEK BY TELEGBAPH. OUR WASHINGTON DISPATCHES, IMPEACHMENT ARTICLES TO BE PRE? SENTED TO-DAY. THE DEAD LOCK Di THE WAR OFFICE. [SPECIAL DISPATCH TO TTS. DALLY NEWS, j WASHINGTON, February 2C-10 P. M.-It is arranged tbat the arri?les of impeachment are to be presented to-morrow in Congress. The principal counts wbioh they will contain are: First. That tho President has violated the constitution. Second. That he bas violated the Tenure of Office act. Third. That be has attempted to induce General Grant to violate the said act; and Fourth. That he has been an obstruction to reconstruction by removing military command? ers in the South. The best informed parties consider tho ac? tion of the Senate upon these charges doubt? ful; but t: e Radicals are sanguine of obtaining a conviction. [FBOSI THE ASSOCIATED PBESS.] WASHINGTON, February 26-8 P. M.-General Thomas appeared in court this morning with bis counsel. Judge Cartier issued a subpoena for Stanton, with bis commission and other documents. Pending its service of the sum? mons, the court proceeded to other business. S tau tor's lawyers asked a postponement. Thomas' lawyers objected. The sureties of the latter surrendered him and Thomas became a prisoner. A writ of habeas corpus was de? manded, but Judge Cartter released Thomas unconditionally. This closes the matter unless the grand jury takes cognizance of it. It is expected now that the quo warranto against i ? Stanton will be applied for. | t The Impeachment Committee of the House examined General Emory. Serious differences are reported in the committee. The idea that the Radical troubles are thickening generally prevails, though no tangible facts have trans? pired. Stanton answered the subpoena by saying that he would obey at noon, but as the case has been thrust out of court, no further proceed? ings will be bad. PROCEEDINGS OF CONGRESS. ls THE SENATE to-day, a petition from four hundred citizens of Louisiana was presented setting forth their grievances, and asking for relief; it was referred to the Committ : ? on the Judiciary. The bill returning criminals from foreign countries was discussed; considerable opposi? tion waa manifested and the bill was recom nutted, to be more cautiously worded. Certain routine resolutions regarding im? peachment were passed. Several Senators represented doubts about conviction for a violation of the Tenure of Office act, there fore the impeachment charges will embrace seven or eight counts. IN THE HOUSE the bill exempting discharged soldiers crom the payment of the homestead fees was passed. The House concurred in the Supplementary Reconstruction bill paused yes terday by the Senate. It provides that a ma? jority of the voters shall ratify the constitu? tion, tbat registered persons shall vote any? where in the State after ten days' residence registration being proved by certificate, affida? vit, or other evidence, and that Congressional and State elections shall be held simultaneous? ly with that for the ratification of the constitu? tion. The vote on its passage was ninety-six to thirty-two. The bill now goes to the President. The House then took up the civil appropriation bill It includes an amount for the survey of the Atlantic and Gulf coasts, amounting to two hundred thousand dollars; for the Florida reefs, twenty-five thousand; for lighthouse service, one million and tbree-quarters. The House, without acting, adjourned. The Governor of New Jersey has vetoed the resolutions of the Legislature withdrawing as? sent to the constitutional amendment. Secretary Mcculloch to-day honored Stan? ton's requisitions for valions amounts on ac? count of the War Department. Oar European Dispatches.

Meeting at the usual hour, the en? tire session was devoted to a discussion whe? ther the body should assemble twice a day, continue as at present to Bit fonr hours, was finally agreed to meet at 10 A. M. and ad? journ at 1, and to meet at 3 again and adjourn at 6. An attempt was made to cut off salaries and pensions after the f>th of March, bnt the tone of the convention was evidently opposed to this curtailment of fonds, and the proposition to economize failed. THE CRISIS IN "WASHINGTON. INTERESTING NEWSPAPER ACCOUNTS. The Washington papers are filled with the ??rticulars of the dead lock now existing bo weon the President and Congress. The 8tar, if Monday evening, gives the following ac :ount of the TIE SECOND VISIT OF GENERAL THOMAS TO TI WAH DEPARTMENT. When General Thomas visited the War De lartment, this morning, at ll o'clock, he im aediatelv went to the room of Mr. Stanton, rhere Judge Fisher, General O. O. Howard, nd several members of Congress were as embled. General Thomas addressed Mr. ?ta?? an, saying: "Mr. Stanton, I have this morning again re eived orders from the President directing me ) take charge of the War Department and [ie records thereof, and discharge the duties f Secretary of War ad interim. In obedience o that order, sir, I am here to take charge of ie Department and assume the duties of | ecretary of War ad interim." Mr. Stanton replied: "I do not acknowledge tie authority of tho President to give any such rder, and refuse to surrender the Depart tent to you. You will proceed to your room, r, and discbarge your duties as Adjutant eneral of the army." General Thomas replied : "I will not do so, t r. I have been ordered by the President to sch argo the duties of Se.- rotary of War adin- T nm, and I will obey that order." ^ General Thomas went into General Shri vor's b tom, whore he conversed a short time with t? ?veral who were present, after which ho with- u :ew. u General Howard, Commission! r of the Freed- D ion's Bureau, bas been with Mr. Stanton for jj >me time to-day. ? During the morning Mr. Stanton waa visited 't y many members and Senators, but by twelve _ block they were all at the capitol, and this af- .' ..moon ho was engaged in transacting the bu- v ines8 of the department ,and received persons r ho culled upon business. Each entrance to the department is guarded y an armed sentinel, while a number of mes- ? cngers and attendante ore on duty in the pis- c ages. A lieutenant bas been placed in chargo f the guard at the department, and be occu ios a soat near the loot of the stairs. The oom of the Assistant Adjutant-General is kept lose J, and a messenger stands at the door, erasing admission to all until the card of the isitor has been handed to the Assistant Adj u ant-General, E. D. Townsend, and be has giv n permission to tho visitor to enter. Should a writ of quo warranto be issued com? piling Mr. Stanton to appear in person before he court and show by what authority be bolds he War Department, it would seem to be a erv difficult matter for tho marshal to gain omission to serve the same, unless by Mr. ?tanton's consent. No one is admitted to bis oom until after a card is presented, while in he ante-room leading to bis room some six or ight messengers arc on duty who refuse ad? mission to all. The door of the ante-room, aa rell as the door of Mr. Stanton's room are kept losed. JJ INTERVIEW WITH THE PRESIDENT-V.'HAT HE SAID. The Washington Express of Monday even ag says: At 12? o'clock our reporter had an interview i'ith President Johnson. The President re? marked that he had made application, through Lttorney-General Stanbery for a writ of man? ama; and that he had just learned that the uestion was being ordered. He desired to ring tho case before the Chief Judicial J rjbu lal. IT tho Supreme Court brought Stanton efore them, and he could not show proper auso in law why be held tho War Office and ctedas Secretary, and they (the Supreme 'ourtl ordered bim to vacate, and be (Stan on) still refused, then tho Executive would act iomptly in the matter, and, with tho law and ho constitution on his sido, he felt that thc Lnierican peoplo would sustain him. Ho fur? ner remarked that at this time (half-past we've) lhere was no change from tho situation I yesterday or Saturday. He recognized no no but (ioneral Thomas as Secretary of War, nd meant to recognize no one else. He said hat General Emory did not say he would re? use to rcceivo orders from him, or that they aust come through General Grant. Tho President was very courteous during the nterview, appeared calm and in good spirits, nd concluded the interview by remarking that 'God and the American people would make all ight and save our institutions." THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE, ent to the Senate on Monday, and covering he nomination of Mr. Ewing as Secretary of Var, extends over thirty-Seven pages of fools ;ap, and contains numerous law points by vhich he claims to bo guided in his action. The President briefly refers to the fact that lach of hrs predecessors had exercised the pre? rogative of removal, and that the Supreme yourt bad decided that the authority was lodg >d in the Executive by the constitution. It is hen sbown that so far as the laws are concern id, they recognize the power ot the President :o displace from office the head of a depart nent, and further confer upon the Chief Magis ;rate of the nation the right to make ad inte? rim appointments. The message denies that Mr. Stanton's removal is an infraction of the jct of Maich 2,18G7, and holds that as he was ippointed by Mr. Johnson's predecessor m the Executive office, Mr. Stanton had no tenur9 of iffice beyond the President's pleasure. That ict merely provides for the removal of those riembers of tho Cabinet who held appoint? ments from himself. And this construction ,vas unanimously reached when tho question ?ame before tho Cabinet, Mr. Stanton himself icquiescing, the President declares that in .emoving Mr. Stanton he has carefully observ? ed the provisions of the Tenure of Ofhce act in iccordance with the course marked out by himself as a general rule to execute faithfully ill laws passed over his veto. He earnestly protests against the resolution of the Senate, ind sa vs that as doubts arose respecting the true construction of the Tenure of Office act, ind of the law regulating the removal of the tiead of a department, he desired now to obtain % decision from the arbiter fixed by the consti? tution for the determination of all such ques? tions. Tho former suspension of Mr. Stanton was intended to accomplish this purpose, but bis (the President's) object was frustrated, and be had now removed Mr. Stanton from office, pnd thus sought to obtain a decision from the courts.. THE MILITARY AND THE PRESIDENT. The Washington Chronicle (Forney's paper), of Monday, says : In connection with the question of a resort to force, there is an important consideration which has, no doubt, bad great weight with both the President and his ad interim appointee in bringing them lo a pacific state of mind, and that is, where the force is to be obtained. The President finds, to his rmbarrassmet, that bis subordinates in the arm}* have a due eenso of the importance of obedience to the laws-a discovery which may lead him to conclude that the assertion he once made of bis ability to declare himself dictator was somewhat prema? ture. The laws provide that no orders shall bo issued to the anny except through tho general commanding. This provision was promulgated in general orders, and thus made known to every officer in the army after its enactment, and consequently any officer who should re? ceive an order otherwise than through the proper channel would do so in fud view of the consequences. Very naturally, the President has not yet found any one willing to take upon nimsolf the responsibility of a course which would be at once a violation of the law and of anny regulations. On Saturday be sent for General Emory, who commands tho Department of Washington, and whose co-operation he, therefore, doubt? less regarded as a very important adjunct to his scheme. Had General Lmor v consented to become his tool, it is not likely that we should bavo beard any of the pacific talk to whioh we are now treated, ut least until an attompt bad been made to uso stronger measuri B. But bc wu9 too good a soldier, and too loyal a citizen to lend himself to the President's purpose; and it is even said that ho informed the President of his position in the pomewhat blunt expres? sion "You can't use me." He subsequently called at General Grant's headquarters, and stated to him tho result of the interview. Wo believe ho had anotbo: interview with the President afterward, but nothing is known as to what transpired therein, except that Gen? eral Emory's position remains unaltered. It is understood that tho commanding officers of the troops within thc deportment of Washing? ton have all had their attention called to tho law, and been reminded of their duty there? under. It is stated that tho President subse? quently sent for Col. Wallace, commanding the 12th infantry, but found him as incorruptible as General Emory. The only encouragement he bas met with, so far as we can hear, is from tho venerable Secretary of the Navy. This "old man of the sea," with characteristic offi? ciousness, has, wo learn, tendered to tho Pres? ident the service ol the marines located in thin city, of whom there are about 400, under tho command sf General Zoilin, an officer, who, we loam, is in accord with Congress. All things considered, circumstances seem very unfavor? able for a resort to forco against the Secretary Df War, if the President really has entertained such a design." IMPEACHMENT-COUBSE OF PROCEEDING. The HOUBO of Representativos having passed i resolution impeaching the President of tho United States of high crimes and misdemean? ors, the public will naturally wish to have their ecollectionB refreshed as to the mode of pro seeding in the Senate. The Chief Justico of the United States will iresido upon the trial, just as in the British louse of Lords the Lord Chancellor of England (resides upon similar occasions. AU tho Sonn? ons are required to take an oath (or to affirm) bat they will " well and truly try and true do iverance make," fcc. 'The case will bo conduc? ed on tho part of thc prosecution by managers o be appointed by tho House of Rcprescnta ives, and on tho part of tho President by ounsel of bis own choosing. Mr. Stan ery, Mr. O'Connor, and Judge Black aro aid to bavo been engaged by the Presideut. he House of Iteprcsentativuti will select as ?any managers as it ploascs, and will proba ly, aa a compliment, select Mr. Stevens os aeir chief manager. Tho number will probab? ly be loss than half a dozen. Thc constitu ion provides that punishment in cases of im eacnment shall not extend further than rc lovai from office, and disqualification to bold ny office under tho government. It requires ho concurrence of two-thirds of tho senators iresent to do even this. No President of thc United States has evor ?foro boen impeached, and thcrclorc thc Jhief Justico has nevor before presided over bo Senate, since bo does so only in such case. It may require weeks or months to completo he trial. All depends upon tho temper of tho tenate. FREEDOM FOR IRELAND. OHN MITCHEL'S VIEWS ON FENIANIsM-A MANLY AND POWERFUL LETTER. Tho last number of thc Irish Citizen, pub isbed in New York, contains tho following ablo ind characteristic letter from its distinguished ;ditor, John Mitchel: NEW YpRK. February 14, 18C8. 7b John Marun, of Kiibroney: MY DEAR MARTIN : It is hard to tell where ,his letter will find you; probably in a Dublin ail, expiating your "misdemeanor" in loading i mournful procession to do honor to tlireo irishmen strangled in Manchester by the Eny. ish enemy, and then and there, by open and idvised speaking, deliberately declaring that ;bose three ttrangled persons were good and jrave meD, and martyrs for their country 'against tho peace of our Lady the Queen," &c. But wherever you may be, I feel impelled to ivrite to YOU about this wonderful phenorno lon of "Fenianism." In tho United States Fenianism is all in confusion and disarray; so ;hat the force of the great Irish clement hero s oompletely neutralized, and for any Irish purpose utterly unavailable. This is not be? muse of tho disunion, about which so much ament is mado, but because of the original rice of tho organization itself. It was establ? ished upon a wrong and false basis by that wretched Stephens, namely-upon thc project if immediate insurrection in Ireland wnilo bugland IB at peaco-that insurrection lo bo tided by forces ana arms from this country, jontrary to tho kws of thc Unitod States. Tho project was iu itself wild, and could only bc made to look feasiblo by systematic delusion ind imposture. Otu- people aro credulous, en? thusiastic, impatieut-a tempting material for ino charlatan. - Yet what a devoted and gallant priapic ! No braver mon, no truer Irislimon evor gavo their lives for their country, than some of t lose who went last year and th3 year before to aid an iu ?unection in Ireland, deluded by false preten? ses. False pretences have beeii the main ma? chinery of tho organization from thc Qi st; peo plo in Ireland have been deluded by false re? presentations of the power and resources of the Irish-American "nation ' here; and the IriBh-Americans here have bern grossly de? ceived as to the power and resources of the revolutiooary elemout in Ireland. Yet it would not bo true to say that oui' countrymen wore deliberately cheating each other from tho two oppoBito sides of tho Atlantic. No; ono man cheated them both, and created a system, and trained a Behool of delusion, which is only now beginning to be completely blown. Nine years ago, to my knowledgo, young men, 8ettled in western cities, wound up their business, sold everything they bad, and start? ed for Ireland on ino faith of assurances that the in8unection was to break out that jeir. And BO it bas been every year since;" Mr. Stephens' Fenian army in ireland was forever on the point of fighting the British army, and as our bold young men hore hnvo naturally been desirous to bo counted in for thut pro? mised fight, tho stream of Irish-Americans Btill continued setting towards Ireland, until after our great war the stream almost became a torrent. All these people wero deceived by systematic falsehoods about the "men at home." Aud the men at home were carefully taught to believe, that hero in America was a groat powerful Irish nation, with unlimited resourc? es, and an army and navy, both willing and able to give them important material aid, in troops and arms, with the connivance, or oven in spite of the United States Government. So they prepared for immediate fight, and wondered that tho American army was not vet landed. And in all this there was no empty bravado, on the part of the deluded people, at either side of the ocean. They were ready; they are always ready and eager-they crave, they thirat and hunger, for but ono chance of | fighting that, samo British armv. Thonsands upon thousands of stalwart men now on this continent would give their laBt dollar freely if they could but make sure of seeing therasoives face to face with Queen Victoria's redcoats Moreover it is quite true that there is he America (not counting the pe mle in In at all) the material of a force, a force of iery, trained in the Federal and Confed armies, strong enough to free Ireland-thi to destroy the British empire, which m thc ?ame thing. And not only the matt there is also tbe will, the zeal, the pati devotion; yet all that material, all that and patriotism cannot begin to. come ne the task of destroying that empire. The 1 is groat; but it is at one side of the Atla and its"objective point" ?B at another. And not go, then, where its work lies already fo: Simply because the government of the c try we resido in will not suffer that, and ?B to hinder and bound to hinder that. In force which would be at all v/irth countinp expedition to Ireland uoulo . morally physically impossible; and k riginal and fraud of "Foniamem" lay in >'ng cn lons, innocent people that they c. 1 get length of fighting at all, while En?. ad i peace; and m exhorting them to pou. n t money under that fake pretence. To Heighten and stimulate the deluek moro, the assumption waa made that the race on this continent ia a nation, has a ri to declare itself a republic, to constitu? government, with Secretaries of State, ar navy, government bonds and so forth ; these grand pr?tentions and fine phrases w not without their effect upon an fmagina people like ours. But all this was exceas? repugnant to the American people, or else diculou8 in their eyes. ?he Fenian Impori in Imperio was an anomaly; and though Americans very well knew it way powerlesi etfeot ita avowed purpose, and though t were fully resolved not to suffer it to com cate their relations with England, yet they it as an affront, and laughed at it as a rai The American Government has its band fin upon tbe whole movement, and has made i of it to hold up in terrorem before the eyes England, by way of inducing her to bo m compliant in tho diplomatic discussions wh aro going on between London and Vim ington; just as a man holds a bull-c by tbe collar, sure that he can let h slip against bis enemy or else elmo h back to bis kennel. Neither Inf? the govei mont by any means dono with the Fontana that capacity: it expects more of the sai kind ot" sorvico; and BO deals very gently wi thom. It turned them back very tenderly, a with great forbearance, from their little Cat dian raid; bau sinco restored to them certa arms and equipments .viiich were captur upon that occasion; and has never prosecut any ol them-(for in fact these Irish ba votes, and your politician must deal with the "as though be loved thom)." But tho gover mont most intimately knows all their procee ings; knows where it can lay its hands aga upon thu restored anne; bas arranged with tl Canadian government for a joint d?fonce that frontier; and in every seaport keens i vigilant a guard that not even a single ship considerable size, to Bay nothing of a fleet transports, can possibly go r.ut,or got ready so out. So you gee the trouble with thei poor Fenians is not disunion-it is just uti impotence-impotence to do anything, ariaiu from tho nature of tho case and the fund mental vice of the organization. But whcD, in addition to that original erro :hero came on them the curse of factions di: inion-when in 1865 tuoir aocioty plit up inl parts, and these immediately began to villi! >no another, then it became moro clearly a] )arent that the movement in that form wa vholly useless for any good purpose. Ou rood people hero cry out for union, earnestl iray for union; and soem to think that if th ?WO 'actions would only unite, tho probler vould be solved-Ireland would be liberated iow it is certainly desirable that these (action mould come to an end, and that the Irish eic uont here should at least be harmonious; bc auso then they would cease to abuso on mother through newspapers and resolutions o 'circles;' -they would no longer afiord to tb Lmcricana tho amusement, to the English th leep gratification ot seeing theorexpeuuing al liei- zeal and enthusiasm lfitearing om not ?HT to pieces. But that would bo all th? ood of "union." It those two "winga" wen nitcd to-morrow (as they will nut be), tho< rtuild then be able to do nothing; ublo to taki o singlo step in advnnco iu the direction OJ heir object. That "union" would bo only ai greeinetit of tho two "wings"' to help ont no thor in doing nothing, instead of hinaorinp nc a nut I: er to du nothing, as at present. I he) rould then bo moro conspicuously doing no hing than even now. Lu short, thu whole con urn has run right up against a wall, and can tot take one stop farther. This fatal impasse lias bocu, I imagino, pain iilly apparent to tho leaders of these factions; :moan Mr. Roberts and Mr. Savage. They bund themselves at thc head of two distinct ?rganizationa. each striving to outvie and out )id thc other in bold promises and professions, ind tho respective adhoreuts of each eagerly, lugrily domauding some speody action, whilo hey were sadly conscious that they could do tothing whatsoever, and thc people^ worn out >y delay and disappointment, and disheartened >y thc long continuance of moan and senseless iltcrcations, wero rapidly falling away from hom bo.h. Thoso two '"Presidents" felt them iclves in tho position of two men holding each )f thom a wolt by tho ears. lu this condition of affaira, yon ar3 aware .bat negotiations rbr union were held, with a cry sincere desire, I believe, on tho part of lioso two ''Presidents," to effect that cumbi lation, and withdraw themselves from under ;ho heavy responsibility that weighed upun hom. A* "basis of union" was ?Ira.rn up; ind (he two "Presidenta," pursuant to that fteliminnry arrangement, came and offerod to n . thc Pre ideucy oftliojoiutatidunitodbroth ?rhood. Why to mu ? I have bad nothing ia do with thuin ur their organization for two rears; and very little before that time. I was lot responsible fur any of tbcirdoings, or mis loiugs. I bad uo? approved ol' uuy ono of .heir enterprises, either on tho sid J ol'Canada >r on thu bido ol frai and. Wheuovcr 1 had routnrou to offer thom any advice or give ,hcm any win ning, it had boon uniformly dia .egarded. 1 had, for example, warned them mat the hinta and intimations on thc port of ludcrliiigB of thia government to tho effect ;hat their invasion of Canada would bc winked it and permitted, were intended to cheat mern, and that thu government would bc sure ;o turn upon them al tho last moment and lofuatany steh invasion, aa, indcod, it waa bound to do;-but they tried, nevertheless, to invade Canada. I had warned them against my attempt at insurrection in Ireland while England waa at peace; but tlioy poraistod in making their wretched attempt at insurrection in Ireland. 1 had bugged of them not tu placo tho government of thou American organiza? tion in tho hands of Stephens; but they did this very th pig almost the moment ho appear sd. And now, when blunders, failures and fac? tion have brought their uffai s to thc lowest abb, and the. iinpationt and justly indignant people ..are insisting upon action, action, those leaders who aro holding tho wolf by tho ears, politely invite mo to tnko charge of the two wolves-of two packs of wolves-roquost mc, in tho most complimentary manner, to take and knit np the two ragged lag-ends of an or? ganization originally rotten, and now all tat? tered and tom, and to wear tho patched-up thing us a robo o? honor. Of course I respect? fully decline. You nio to recollect that tho Presidency was tendered to nie apucificaliy under a written "Conatitution" which was to govern tho or? ganization and govern me; audwith a set of "Senators" or " Councillors," who wero to havo the power of controlling all my aclion. Half of these councillors wero to be furnished mo from thc faction which believes tim salva? tion of Ireland tn lie in Cauada ; the other half from the party which ia always professing to aid the "men at homo" to complote "the revolution " which they pretend is already in progress of accomplishment thcro. If I had accepted the office, and had thereupon under? taken (as I certainly should havo undertaken) to explode both of those delusions, and to bring thc association within tho bounds of reason, and ol lnw-then at once would have arisen a conflict; "constitutional" questions would have raged around me; and a new divi? sion would have broken out immediately. Then, the instrument they call a constitution ia in itself ridiculous; and I, being acutely sensitive to ridicule, would feel ashamed ot occupying a position in which .1 should be ex? pected to carry on the sham of a provisional government, and to commission "generals" for an imaginary army. All this, even if it were not illegal, .s still radierons. So l would have begun by abolishing that "Constitution," by dismissing all Secretariea of State, diBband ing all "paid organizers," cancelling all pre? tended "commissions" to officers, exhorting thu circles everywhere to keep their monoy within their own power until there should arise an opportunity to use it with effect-and ex hot ting tho people t.> attach their military companies to the militia service of their res? pective ?States-and to wait. Then what a wild outcry I Treason I-abandoning our broth? ers I-British gold in bis pocket! Now, UH for abandoning our brothers, those men in England, and in Ireland, who get up absurd and mischievous "scares,'' may be very brave and patriotic, but they are extremely un? wise, and bave no right to expect that they are to be encouraged in their folly by loud promises of assistance from this aide, which promises cannot be realized to any greater ex? tent than might enable them for a while longer to frighten and exasperate the middle classes of Englishmen and of English-Irishmen; for they are not frightening the government at all, but highly gratifying that government, which, in fact, desires' its middle classes to be frightened and enraged, so as to supply it with good banging juries, and a ferocious public opinion, the true British craving for irish blood. In truth, the British Government is much indebted to those desperadoes who make the "big scares" and little riots, and ought to pay them in British gold. They form, it seems, one division of that Irish Rjpubhcan army which is serving under Mr. Savage's sec? tion. The other wing itself is a shade more ration al than this, lt professes to make Canada its first object; and certainly a blow struck in Can? ada would seriously injure English prestige and English power, and would employ a large British force; also it must DO said, that it looks much easier to carry an armed force across that frontier than across the Atlantic :-it looks much easier; yet is impossible : impossible, I mean, to bring over any force at all adequate to the service. Head Centres and Organizers can go, it is true, to Buffalo and to Cleveland, within sight of the Canada shore, and cab bluster and threaten, and talk of an army of one hundred thousand men, an army which exists in tho air only; but all this while they know well that thoy cannot take one single step towards a serious invasion of Canada no more than their rivals can make the first beginning of an invasion of Ireland. Thus, the trouble at either side is merely utter impo? tence. Having been directed in a wrong course, they find at last that they havo come to an im? passable barrier. Why not come back ? Wh?t is tho rise of prancing and rearing there against that wal) ? Lot them all come Back to where they started from; and tbon there will be some chance of combining the powerful Irish ele? ment of this ropublic, with rational aim and in a legitimate form. I have much moro to say upon this great subject ; but must keep it for another letter, next week. I mean to print this : it will make me many enemies, amongst the old guard of Femanism ; especially amongst the "paid or? ganizers." I cannot help it. Many may think it ungracious on my part-after the high com? pliment paid to me in the offer of the Presi? dency of tho United Brotherhood, that I should thus attack the whole system. Yet that very ofter itself, and tho confidence which it implies make it incumbent on me to state plainly all .ri y reasons for declining so great a trust. lien write to me every day, from various parts of tho United States and Territories, demand? ing that I should speak out, without reserve, and without respect of persons. "If our pres snt course is not right," they say, "what is riirht?" Ono correspondent Bays, -"It is not Duly yonr antecedents as an Irish nationalist, but your present position as conductor of a journal addressing itself to thc Irish in Amer? ica, that makes it your duty to speak out." I lcknowledgo tho justice of the call. One other letter, I hope, will be sufficient ; Lo enable me to say all I have to say ; and al? though it may wound a few good and true men, [ have confidence enough in the good sense ind straightforwardness of our countrymen, to rialto me fool that they will lisien to reason, vhen plainly and kindly set forth.

Is t hi s a condition that any rational human being is willing to endure, when the means of certain, immediate and permanent relief can be obtained everywhere ? The Dyspeptic has his fate In bis own hands. If he chor ees to banish forever the disorder that racks his bc- ly and disturbs the mind with nameless hor? rors, hu has only to step to the nearest drug store and pp ?cure a supply of HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS. No j hase of Dyspepsia has ever yet resisted the altera tl ve, ionic and anti-bilious operation of this po? tent vegetable specific. It literally regenerates the lethargic stomach; rouses into healthy action the dormant liver; puts to flight the dismal fancies that beset rhe mind; gently relieves and regulates the bowels; strengthens the enfeebled nerve?; restores the apt* ti te, ind makes, as it were, a KXWOBXATDBZ of the desponding and debilitated Invalid. Lodi 38 who suffer from indigestion have only to take a small dose of this pure vegetable corrective, once or twice a day. to secure entire exemption from the paint and penalties of a weak stomach and that perfect functional regularity, which but few of the tex uninterruptedly enjoy. 6 February 34 ??
