' At half-past eight o'clock Captain James Mulvany, in a Tow complimentary remarks, in? troduced tho orator of the evening, General John O'Neil, of the Fe lian army, formerly of the Federal army. GENERAL O'NEIE',4 ADDRESS. The General, on being introduced, stated that he was much surprised to learn when ho arrived here that Fenianism was" so little un? derstood, in fact,was very much misunderstood; that there was an impression prevalent to the effect that the Church was opposed to Fenian? ism. To combat this impression he had writ? ten out a statement which he would presently read, but before doing so, would state that while he WSB a Fenian and warmly enlisted in its cause, he was not at all bigotted, but de? sired, in securing the liberty of Ireland, to secure at the same time the light of her people :o worship God according to the dictates of I their consciences ; that he wai as ready to draw his sword and fight for, nay die for, the Protestant Irish as the Catholic Irish. The speaker then proceeded to read the written statement which commenced by stat? ing that the objeot of the meeting was to talk of the wrongs and sufferings of Ireland, and ofthobest means for ber liberation, but as England's inhumanity to Ireland hos never done more than to fill the soul with anguish or arouse to temporary passion the hearts of our countrymen ; as it has not put muskets into the hands of Irish soldiers or won one single battle over the hosts of the tyrant ; as it has not removed one single grievance or broken one link of the fetters of degrading slavery, it would be idle to dwell upon Ireland's wrongs and suffering e, I have come, said the speaker, as a represen? tative of men who are determined to avenge those wrongs. The Fenian organization is of tho opinion that the red hand ot the oppressor shall be stayed in its work of blood, not by tears and entreaties, but by the vigorous ap? plication of cold stool. As its president, I freely concur in the opinion, and am convinced that a proper and complete redress of Irish grievances is to be sought for on the battle field, and no where else. The past history ot Irish struggles has taught us not to rely upon impulsive, sudden action, but to fully prepare for the struggle beforehand. Discipline, skill, and munitions of war are necessary for us to carry on our work. All that we demand of you are the necessary resources to arm and equip us. Fenianism will supply trained soldiers and skilled leaders. Jostice, reason and abso? lute duty require that you should give, and give liberally, to the enterprise. Is Fenianism a crime against nations or against religion, that you should hesitate to anppo?! it V. It ia not a erimia ag ?loaf- nationT. for everywhere among men the right of revo? lution is conceded-the right to remodel gov? ernments when they run counter to the happi? ness and prosperity of the people. It is nob a crime against religion, for religion admits the right of revolution; the endeavors of the oppressed to oust the oppressor, the Church bas never condemned. Her censure is confined to the excesses which sometimes mark the endeavors. What a monstrous doctrino it would be to hold that the Church was op? posed to human liberty; that the princi? pies of Christianity favored the servile subjection of the multitude to the arbitrary rule of the few. lt such teachings had fallen from the lips of the Founder of Chris? tianity, would He have been likely to have found His most devoted followers and most zealous Apostles in the poor fishermen of Galli lee; would the proud Pharisee have conspired His death, or the humble Publican been num? bered with His friends; would it, in short, be a divine religion, a religion of charity, if it did not unequivocally defend the right of revolu? tion ? Take away the right of revolution, and man once stripped of bis freedom must forever remain a slave; take away the right of revolu? tion, and it becomes a crime to attack the usurper who has robbed you of your liberties; to repel the ruthless invader who has desolat? ed your homes and seized your lands; take away the right of revolution, and religion it? self loses tbe cardi nal point on whioh it hinges -the free will of mao. Deprive a man of free will, and yon deprive religion of its m ams pr ing ; tbe more the free will of man is shackled the more limited becomes the sphere of religion, and in denying the right of revolution you strip man of free will altogether: and, conse? quently, destroy the uses of religion. Chris? tianity, then, would commit suicide, if it for. bade soy attempt against established tyranny. The speaker quoted freely from Cardinal Bel? la rman in support of bis argument, that relig? ion was not opposed to resistance of tyranny. In regard to those who assert that the Fenian Brotherhood is not able, to successfully cope with the English, and therefore the Church would objeot to any attempt to do so, the epeaJcar snobs.vacy warmly and ?t length, say? ing: rho Church, say they, ie opposed te rebel? lion when there is good reason to suppose lt will not be successful, and, therefore, must be opposed to Fenianism. Has the Church ever lifted up its voice against the uprising ot a suf. faring people because they were fewer in num? ber than tho hosts of.the tyrant? Haslfhs ever denounced their efforts because they were more stinted in resources than the enemy? Never. When the downtrodden Poles, a few years back, rose against the Czar, did the Church oondemn the attempt, because the sol? diers of Kassia outnumbered them in propor? tion of ten to one? On the contrary, did not Pope Pius IX approve of their canse and in? voke the blessings of Heaven on their arms ? The speaker, after reciting numerous facts from history to show that the victory was not always to the strong, said that it was not the intention of the Fenian Brotherhood to madly" rush forward to the frey, trusting solely to the merits of Ito cause, bot to await until it was folly prepared, ?nd it wee now rapidly organis? ing and concentrating its forcea. The objection of soma against Fenianism, because, as they asserted, it waa a secret so? oiety, was next duoaesed by the speaker. He .aid that lt was no secret society. He knew var/well that the Church waa opposed to se? cret societies, bot no such objection could be rightfully urged against the Pentan Brother? hood, because it waa net a seeret sooiety; th?! ? lew designing men had attempted te make it such, but they had been succoisfmly resisted. The Brothel hood had ? written constitution, whioh waa open flor inspection to all. Its ob? jecte were known to every on?; ?nd the only ee> ?.4* that it had were ?ooh a? every gee* gev ? ' y - ? . ' J ' Mfc^i't * ' ?>'<? . .sr, ? v.. . -A \:> ?A ??.!., MM er amont found it noonee ary to (stablish and maintain. The remainder or the General's state? ment was confined to showing what Fenianism had dins far done (all of which is known to our readers,) and in warmly urging those who had either refused to assist the enterprise at all, or had only partially done so, to arouse tb em selves and heartily espouse it. The statement concluded as follows: "England tell us that Fenianism is not a failure, and we will believe oar enemy sooner than the men of our raoe, and who have shown their patriotism only in their doubts, and even in denunciation of our enterprise. Fenianism isa encocas, crios out our hurt and wounded adversary. Fenian? ism is a failure, simpers its pretended friends. Patriot Irishmen, I leave it to you which of the two is more likely to have given the cor? rect decision, tho cold and indifferent friend, or the bitter onemy smarting under the lash of defeat? I need not ask. Fenianism has been a great sncoess, and it is for us to make it a greater, a complete success in the tull achievement of Irish Independence." At the couolusionof the reading, tho General thanked the audience for their kind attention and begged to bo excused tor any awkwardness that might have been apparent in his reading, saying that he was a soldier, had led a soldier's life and was at homo in the field, but not on tho platform. He was not n> speaker and only spoke through nooessity-oaly because he saw that tb is was the only way to arouse his countrymen an 1 bring them to thc point which the English pooplo would only recognize-the point of tbe bayonet. I predict that very shortly, although there is not much appearance of it now, the Irish citizons of Charleston will bo tally aroused to tho merits of the Fenian cause, and overy one will be either in active communication with the Fenian head-centres or be in the il' hi battling with their bretheron in tbe grand old cause of Ireland's li berty. In February, 1866, a few Fenians assembled in Pittsburg, Penn., and determiner to invade Canadi, from the United States. And, by the way, I'll m jet right here the obj eotion so often urged that we had no right to invade Canada, beoauso her peoplo had never interfered with us. I admit that they uover interfeied with us. Neither have the masses of the people of England, whom I oonsidor more abject slaves than were the negroes in South Carolina ten years ago, and I would gladly aid them in throwing off the yoke of their tyrants. I con? tend that wherever the English flag floats we have a right to go and pull it down and smite those who stand ready to de? fend it. The flag is the representative of England's tyranny, whioh for the last seven hundred years has oppressed our beloved coun? try, and oaused thousands upon thousands of her citizens to die ot stat vat ion. We have a right to tear down that flag wherever it floats, and to trample it in the dust. And besides, in Canada tho people claim to be the subjects of Groat Britain, and those whom we met in our brush there, in 1866, and mada scamper, had rallied to support that emblem of tyranny and called themselves the Qaeen's Own-if they bad not run so fast, they would have been Our Own. As I have said, we determined iu February, 1866, to invade Canada. Then we had not one oent in the treasury, no muskets and no mili? tary stores. We invaded Canada with a small force-tho remainder were prevented by the United States from going over. Had that first party been thoroughly successful, nothing would have prevented thousands from rushing over and joining their compatriots. In proof of my statement I call your attention to the report of General Meade, of the United States Army, to the President in Blay, 1866, in whioh h. ~*m. tem +.h?f tu- ?>x?.-t.... I,..,?T... bera thirty-seven thousand, the finest men I ever saw." The speaker again called the attention of the audience to the beneficial results the Fenians had caused-had mada England gr?nt Ireland rights never before listened to; had system? atized rebellion; bad awakened the attention and enlisted the sympathies of the civilized world to the sufferings and wrongs of oppress? ed Ireland; and concluded with another earn? est appeal to his hearers to bestir themselves in behalf of Fenianism, which, as he asserted, would exist as long as Ireland had a wrong tc be redressed, and would be disorganized whet the green flag floated in the free air of the fret old Emerald Isle. In the speaker's remarks about Canada, (the capture of whioh by the Fenians, he ar? gued, would be a fatal blow to the commerce o England by fitting out privateers to prey upor it, and this would occasion a suspension ot manufacturing establishments, throwing out of employment thousands who would engage ii bread riots, and demand and make Englam grant to ireland the Uherty bernons bettlet for,) he said that there Wa? much talk amonf the Southern people about the Irish having fought on the side of the oppressors of th South, depriving her of the very rights whiol the Fenians were now urged to con tend for in their own country Said the General: "It is well knowi that the Irish ara true to the people they liv amoDg." The Irish living North fought a zealously ia the Union ranks-where I foagb myself-as did the Irishmen far the "Loe Cause." K the North had its Corcoran, th South had its gallant Pat Cleburne. Ha there been more Irish nen in the Souther army there would have been more fighting, fo you know "where an Irishman is there i fighting." At the conclusion of the General's addresi the audience applauded him heartily and qniel ly retired. We are folly aware that in the above repoi we have only given a general outline of ti General'a speech, whioh . was frequently S{ plauded._ . -. Tva MUNICIPAL MUBD??B.-It is reporte that a canons of the Pillsbury party was hoi on Sunday night to determine whet h sr thei should be a meeting of the City Council th evening. The oauous was informed that tl Mackey party intended to keepout of the Com oil Chamber, so as to leave the meeting in tl bands of their opponents, but that as soon i the Pillsburyiiis were seated the Mackey pan would swarm in, make a quorum, and toroa a meeting. It was, therefore, thought best t avoid the trap by staying away altogether, ai it is supposed that there will be no meeting < Connell to-night. Tn UNITED STATORS Corax, Jxnm 14-Ho Ososos 8.

Information has been received hero of an unpleasant diffloulty between Chief Justice Chase und the bar o. Haleigh, North Carolina. The Chief Justice states that bo was shown what purported to be a protest drawn up and signed by many of the leading members of the bar. On the opening af the coart ho address? ed tho members of the bar pt OHO ut, stating that the omrt had seen the protest, and con? sidered it a contempt, aud that the clerk would be ordered to serve upon each member of the bar who signed it, and a rule to show cause why they should not be silenced until they purged themselves of the c m tempt. This oavsed much confusion among the lawyers, and they left the court to confer as to the oourso proper for them. Thc calendar was then called, and the lawyers whose names were in the protest were not allowed to appsar in their cases.

GES- FBOSPEBT.TT or AIKEN.-Since the close of the late unpleasantness, a deoided south? ward movement appears to have been inaugu? rated among the people of the North. Numer? ous societies have been formed in the Southern States for the purpose of guiding and assisting such as desire to emigrate to particular local? ities, but their success has been very limited, as in the majority of instances, these associa? tions lack haimony of action and more especially the great stimulus, individual inter? est. It seems to us that individual enterprise should be made the agent of the distribution of our vast tracts of uncultivated land to Northern pur? chasers. The movement of prospecting immi? grants should be directed by judicious advsr tisoments, in which the cheapness of the lands, the advantages of climate, as well as the great natural resources of the South, could be pro? perly presented to the Northern public. An illustration of successful enterprise of this kind may be found in the result of the personal exertions of Mr. E. J. C. Wood, of Aiken, 8. O. That gentleman had the foresight to aisunguian, at the close or the war, the next move on the great oheoker board of the country; and two years ago he commenced distributing his Aiken pamph? let, in which he gave an ample yet candid ex? position of the natural resources, Ac., of that section. The result has been that he haa now disposed of the greater portion of the available property in his immediate vicinity, and that he is obliged to extend his operations over the four adjoining counties of Barnwell, Edgefield, Orangebnrg and Lexington. Every day he re? ceives applications from those neighborhoods for the sale of lands, plantations and other property; in fact his name is already a house? hold word with all property-holders in that section. As a result of his efforts the Town of Aiken has assumed a thrifty go-ahead appearance? so much at variance with the gloomy, desolate aspect of hundreds of her sister towns through? out the South. The mail brin?? dally large suma of money from *"?. Worth, and the conse? quence is ?bat property is looked to, that paint and brush assume their sway once more, that buildings go up in all directions-in short, that life and business are the order of the day. Let other gentlemen in other sections emulate the example of Mr. Wood, and the prosperity of the State will be secured beyond peradven? ture. _ _ In Memoriam. At a meeting of the Congregation ot the Unitarian Church in this oity, held on Sunday, the 13th instant, immediately after Morning Service, the following Preamble and Resolu? tions were presented and unanimously adopt? ed : We meet to-day to give utterance to our sa? ored sorrow for the loss of a beloved friend; an associate held in the highest esteem, honor, and reverence. Full of years-his duties done, hi? task accomplished, bit term of service ended-Dr. JAMBS MOULTRIE has passed away into the rest promised to the ohUdren of God. Connected with the Church through a period extending far beyond ari ordinary lifetime, he has not only approved himself a most userai and trusty support and? stay through all its vicissitudes, but he has also endeared himself to the whole body of its members and to each of its successive pastors, by bis uniform wil? lingness to occupy any position, to attend to any of its exigencies, and to supply all of its wanta, to the utmost of bis ability. An efficient officer-worden, chairman and senior deacon. his voice and his pen were ever ready as occa? sion might arise. In the absence of our pas? tors, and in the sad vacancies of the pulpit which, by the Providence of God, have so often occurred among us, we remember With mour ful pleasure his prompt acceptance of the office of Reader, whioh he fill? ed BO repeatedly and so(?-dJ. Ia the midst of a community remarkabj? for ita coneer r?? ti sm and tenacious adherence to the establish? ed and f amil tor forma of belief, he did not hesitate to avow-one among the earliest-his bellefin tho doctrino of the Divine Unity, whioh we assert and maintain in ita emphatic and controversial senas, and regard aa one of the brightest manifestations of religions intel? ligence, h ver prepared to "give a reason for the faith that was tn bim," he held, unshaken, the even tenor of bia way, and had the gratifl oatlon to see the ohureh of his choice expand and increase, enfolding one after another many of the most enlightened of bis feUow ?HW?"?s, and establishing itself upon 4 firm and oscars basis. m It is not too much to tay that to the Uves and examples of auch men aeFoster and our be? loved adman, oar Lee, Webb, Moultrie and others who have gone to their s eward, we ace to ascribe, mn J?r the direct favor o?ou?

While we can point to the irreproachable character, the sin? cere zoal, the unstained purity, the devout piety of snob, our ministers and brethren, we feel that we need fear no sectarian exclusive? ness. "By their fruits ye shall know them;" and we are fully content to submit to this test, j so rational in itself, so thorougly sanctioned by infallible authority. j We do not grieve for our departed friend with any of the bitter c lusciousness of disap? pointment which attends upon the death of tho young. In his well completed labors nothing bas been left unarrangod; no hope has been de-1 ceived; no promise unfulfilled. No shadow of doubt dims our exulting faith in his removal to a higher and better sphora. where he has received the gracious wolcomo accorded to the sincere and devout in Ii cart- '-Well done thou good and faithful servant, enter thou into the joy of thy Lord." Penetrated with these sentiments and views, wo offer iho following resolutions tobe entered on our Minutes, and recorded on a page set apart in the Record Book of our Church: Resolved, That in thc death of Dr. JAMES *j MOULTRIE, our Senior Deacon, tho Unitarian Society in Charleston has lost one of its most estimable and revered associates, and the Uni? tarian Church one of its most valued, useful and respected members. Resolved, That his life and character have been such as to entitle him to the warmest a- - firoval and most cordial admiration or a i who ove and desire to promote the true doctrine and practica ot the religion of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Resolved, That in our profound sorrow wo still recognize tho infinite consolation to bo de? rived, as well from our recollection of his con? stant fulfilment of his allotted duties during a term of ripo and protracted years among us, as from thc glowing confidence that he is now reaping tho rich reward of his patient endur? ance in a course of virtuous conduct and hum? ble piety. Resolved, That we offer the expression of our earnest sympathy with his widow and rela? tives, wi.li whom we claim, in all heartfelt sin? cerity, to unite in their grief as fellow-mourn? ers. Resolved, That our communion table and reading desk bc clad in mourning tor the space of six months, as a memorial of his t'ait h lui service as Semor Deacon, Chairman and War? den, as well as Lay Reader of this Church. Resolved, That the Secretar)* of this corpo? ration prepare a copy of theso proceedings to be sont to the widow of our decoased friend, with assurances of our sincere condolence tn her bereavement. Uesoloed, That these proceedings be publish? ed in the daily papers of this city. BUSINESS NOTICES. CHEAP GOODS.-J. R.
