Thc Fenian Movement.
The leaders of the Fenian organization
appear to ha-ve more prudence, foresight
and skill, than those of former movements
having thc same object in view as it is said
tho present brotherhood have, viz: the in?
dependence of Ireland. Thus far, in their
own country, they have baffled the efforts
of the British Government to bring on a
premature outbreak, and will, possibly,
continue to foil such efforts. It is true,
that somo few alleged members of the
order have been arrested in England and
Ireland, bi?t no overt act of treason has
yet been shown to have been committed,
and tho special commission, which bas
bean appointed to try those in Ireland
known enemies as its live judges aro to thc
movement-will find it a difficult matter,
we apprehend, to make out a case of
treason against men who may have a re?
volver or two in their possession, or who
may, nnfortuuatcly, have a military air in
carriage or bearing. These two points
seem to constitute the ground-work of most
of thc arrests made. And wc advise any
American who may intend t>> visit her
Majesty's dominions, to drop every military
title, and even if he has been four years in
our late war, and thus acquired a military
carriage and the measured tread and regu?
lar step of tho soldier, it will bu safer for
bun to shake oil* these habitudes of thc
camp and walk and carry himself as a
plain civilian, else the British policemen
and detectives wi il iirst suspect, then dog
him wherever bc may go; and, finally
<ess?>ccTHlly if b<* takes bis revolver with
bita-?ill arrest him, subjecting him to a
very utrpiejsant incident of travel. That
this is not exaggeration, we read, in a lot?
ter dated Dublin, November 1, that ?%ie
annoying ordeal through which passen?
gers -arriving at Quo*-; l",vn from the
Unite.] ???.K^_have to ^s, in conse?
quence of the existing regulations,;;has
been made the subject of numerous com?
plaints. 'It is difficult,' says one writer,
'to say whether a male spectator feels more
indignant or amused at beholding a police?
man feeling a female passenger's back hair,
don? up in thc present extraordinary fash?
ion, for thc purpose of ascertaining
whether it conceals arms, ammunition or
documents. The process is naturally ro
pramant. to. Ou; feelings of respectable
Females, but instances ai8o occut ?hi-.<.
victim is a woman of spirit, and makes the
searching officer thoroughly ashamed of
his work.' The time usually consumed in
tho search is about two hours, during
which the private letters of tho helpless
passengers are perused by the police, and
thc inmost recesses of their trunks and
portmanteaus thoroughly overhauled."
As we have said, the members of this
brotherhood, or society, aro more prudent ,
and judicious than the leaders of former
attempted revolutions in Ireland. A Dub?
lin paper, "The irish People," was seized
some timo ago by the police. Now, instead
of any act of violence bj' thc publisher, wo
notice that tho Lord Lieutenant, Sir
Thomas Larcom, Under Secretary for Ire?
land, and thc detective officers of thc city,
have been served with summons and plaint
at the suit of Mr. Thomas Clarke' Luby,
one of the Fenian prisoners, and registered
proprietor of The Irish People, Adi?os
similar to that talton against the police
magistrate, Mr. Strong, arc about being
brought against the above-mentioned i
officials; in fact, the Government of the j
country are to be tried for violation of their j
own laws and for trampling on the Consti?
tution which it is th. ir province to main- j
tain.
Another supposed Fenian, who had been !
arrested, had a deposit of ??U?> in thc lt. ?yal !
Bank, which, it was si ".ted, he had received
from ibis country. The Government or?
dered the bank not to pay it out to the
depositor, but he having instituted a suit
against the Direct irs -and having applied
for tho funds to pay the fees for his de?
fence-ho at last obtained tho rnoncv. It
appear? to ns that all :bi> is verv c >n
temptiblc 0:1 thc part of the authorities of
the ?'freest < ?rovemnient of the World;" and,
as thc best evidence, that the sneers and
ridicule with which the London Times at?
tacks the movement are all bosh, and that
the Government either entertains serious
apprehensions or wishes to precipitate an
outbreak before thc organization isperfd t
ed to such an extent as to cause trouble.

LOST Mm. MATTER.-The Lynchburg
TiepidAicau, of Wednesday, says the
through mail car from Washington to
Richmond was robbed, yesterday, of two
ponches containing South Carolina mat in-.
The ponches were carried about two hun?
dred yards from th- depot and there rilled.
Ni? chu- to the robbers has yet been ob?
tained.
Through a misplaced switch, the 8 o'clock
through traill from New York to Washing?
ton, ran off the track, a short distance from
Newark, N. J., on the 15th instant. One
passenger ia man named Gonion) wai
killed, a dozen others severely injured,
si vi ral cara were smashed, and the engine
badly damaged.
Washington Newa ?nd Ramon.
Governor Hamilton, of Texas, writes to
tho President that he expects to call a State
Convention in December. _
The intelligence o? tne death o?" x'rcsion
King causes much regret in official circles.
The report of his having resigned his posi?
tion as Collector of New York was incor?
rect, the Government having received no
letter from bim.
Mr. C. J. Faulkner, of Virginia, ex-Minia
ter to France under Mr. Buchanan, is in
Washington to got pardoned. He has a
letter from Mr. Lincoln, hidicating his
intention to pardon. The statements that
he has received a pardon from Mr. Johnson
are crroucous.
Thc President, on Tuesday, had a pro?
tracted Cabinet session, Secretary Stauten
remaining for several honrs. Thc doora
wero not thrown open to the public, and no
admittance was granted to any one. No
pardons were issued to-day.
A tuimbcr of pardon brokers and claim
agents having brought business down to
such a point that it became notorious that
money was being paid for the procurement
of pardons, and for other cases needing
official assistance, the attention of General
Baker, chief detective, was called to the
fact by a pardon being thrust into his face
by a 'notorious rebel bridge-burner, who
was also deeply involve;! in certain conspi?
racies. On investigation, he found a cer?
tain female pardon broker, named Mrs.
Cobb, had procured it for the sum of two
hundred dollars, ana had taken a receipt
for UH payment. Ono of his detective's wax
sont to her, and under ar. assumed rame,
got a pardon for the sum of two lmtdred
dollars, in thirty-six hours, without said
detective having taken an amnesty oath.
On the last money being paid, she was
arrested and taken to headquarters,where
she was finally released on making certain
disclosures. 'Yesterday, she went before
thc grand jury, and to-day four bills of
indictment were found against Gen. baker
for larceny, false arrests, etc. Swine rich
developments are anticipated on tho trial
coming up, and a full expose of this brauch
of business. It is understood that the
President has forbid her to again enter tho
White House.
WASHINGTON, November 14. -Thc rumor
received by the steamer which arrived at
New York, yesterday, V' , .arding thc pro?
bable carly removal of tho French troops
from Mexico, will be found correct, on one
condition, name ly, that this Government
will guarantee that Maximilian shall not
bc disturbed in bia present position, but
that he will bc left to carry ont his plans
for tho establishment et' the Empire ou a
durable basis: If i am not mistaken, thc
French Minister here has already taken
occasion to inform the state Department
to this effect:; but what tho reply was, if
any, I am not informed. The position <T
Max. is precisely that of tho South, when,
in tho early days of the rebellion, it wished
to be "let "alone," and this ?vhat Louis Na
polean, speaking for Max., says now: If
you will not interfere, i will withdraw my
troops; but if force is threatened, I shall bo
in duty bound to resort to thc same mea?
sures." Meanwhile, let thc reported with?
drawal of French troops be received with
caution, for rest assured, it will not take
_u .i.,,,,,..,- me l.mpirc, from
American interference, has passed.
The precise relation of Louisiana to the
Union is airead} a theme of considerable
discussion. Having had no Provisional
Governor appointed for her, she has not
' been called upon by proclamation, as were
I the other States, to adopt certain measures
deemed necessary to a loyal return, but
has gone on and elected State officers and
members of Congress in the old wavi as il
her relations had not boen at all changed
by tho war. Yet it is morally certain that
the Pelican State passed an ordinance ol
secession, that she incurred a debt in aid
of the Confederacy, and that she has an
abundance of negroes who, according tc
tho President's remarks concerning other
States, need protection. The question is
asked, what the State proposes to tlo ir
these matters? She has not called a con?
vention, for the reason, probably, that the
President has not asked it.
In three weeks Congress will meet, ano
the representatives of Louisiana will be ir
Washington. How are they to bc received:
or can the State bo excluded for not adopt
ing measures which tho President ha;
never demanded of her? Her representa
tives, just elected, have already expressed
the opinion that they cannot be denied ad
mission, and thc occupancy of their seat:
is counted on by them with confidence.
The rumor is revived that Governor Cur
tin, of your State, is to have a foreign mis
sion.
The nows from South Carolina has causee
both surprise and pleasure. Her delega
lion to CV- gross, I am told, will be backe?
nj) vigorously by the President, ho matte:
whether they can take the test oath or not
and so will the representatives of the ethe;
States when their Legislatures rally to thc
call of the Executive, as the Palmetto has
done.-Cor. Pldladelpkia Judger.
WASHINGTON, November 15.-In late year:
Fee proposition ias been often mooted ii
tho Senate of having pupils at the Lega
tions to learn the art of diplomacy. Bu
our present school of diplomacy seems ti
bo that of arms. It looks to arms. Jiu
appointment of General bogan as Ministci
to the Republic of Mexico, (the seat o
Government of which is in the province o
Chihuahua,) contemplates our resistance,
at least, to further French aggression ii
that quarter, and proba!.-!;, to a contincnta
policy sustaining the Monroe doctrine. Tin
latter idea is strengthened by the appoint
nient of another soldier to go to Chili, am
take the place, after a while, of an expe
rienced and popular minister now there
Meanwhile General Kilpatrick goes t<
Spain, it is said, to impress the views o
our Government upon the Court of Madrid
The French imbroglio has been given a;
a reason in the highest quarter for keeping
np the 'army at present to about 200,ni><
men, some of which arc being concentrate!'
upon the Canadian frontier, to repress
Fenian movements, doubtless, and thin
ingratiate England to our interest ai
against Frnncc. Bet the latter lias an al
liance with Spain by marriage, and witl
Austria by setting up one of her Archduke:
in the splendid Empire of .Mexico. Dynasth
reasons, with desire to keep the Fiend
people in good humor, may make war witl
ns m Mexico rather a desirable tiling i<
"Napoleon. Napoleon is reported to bi
tri th drawing troops from Borne, whicl
filing mav be to procure a conciliation 0
;he Catholic clergy in Mexico.
France has as largo a nary as our own,
and in a war oar commercial marino woidd
be the.greater sufferer, unless, indeed, it is
for the most part in foreign hands, by
transfer durinc the scourging of the seas
by Confederate privateers.
It will be remembered that General
McDougall, Senator of California, made a
deep impression upon Congress, a couple
of sessions since, hy a very able exposition
of French designs in Mexico and on tho
Pacific slope.
Foreign News.
The royal mail steamship Persia, which
left Liverpool on the -ith instant, and
Queenstown on tho 5th, arrived at New
York on Wednesday, the 15th, with two
days later news from Europe. There had
been no further Ministerial arrangements
in regard to the British Cabinet, and it
was said there would be noue until after
the meeting of Parliament, as there was
no Speaker to issue writs, and as an inter?
regnum would he prejudicial to the sitting
members, should a vacancv give rise to a
contest. Mr. Gladstone had made a speech
at Glasgow, which left no ground for doubt
as to thc general course tho Ministry would
pursue, lie had declared in favor of ex?
tending the representative franchise of the
people, although it was said that tins was
no indication that any understanding had
been arrived at in the nev Cabinet in favor
of a reform bill. The London correspon?
dent of the Manchester Guardian states
that Minister Adams has resolved on relin?
quishing his post, and returning home
early in the spring. A Special Commis.non
has issued for the trial of tho Fenians,
which was directed to the twelve Judges,
and especially to Mr. Just ice Fitzgerald and
Mr. Justice Keogh, who were to hold their
court at Dublin, with power to adjourn to
Cork, if necessary to facilitate proceed?
ings. The news from tho Continent has no ,
special feature.; of interest. Thc Frank?
fort Senate had addressed a note to Vienna,
in winch they repeated their refusal to ac?
cede to the demands of Austria and Prussia.
The Prince of Augustenbnrg had been no?
tified by the representatives of the great
powers that should his stay in Holstein
lead to any further demonstrations in his
favor, he would he either immediately ex?
pelled from the Duchies or placed under
arrest, Th?' Danish Mini -try had resigned,
and in Greece a new Ministry had been
form.-ii under M. Qelegerys. A report was
current that a large Bremen ship, with
three hundred and seventy passengers f!>r
New York, had been lost in thc British
Channel, but it was believed to ba without
foundation.
LIVERPOOL, November 4. 1SS5.-The
action against the Royal Bank of Ireland
had been settled, lt appeared that Mr.
Leary, one of the Fenian prisoners, had a
sum "to his credit in tho bank, which the
Government alleged was the proceeds of
bills remitted from America for treasonable
purposes, and with a view to thc stopping
?f such remittances and preventing thy
money being so applied, the Crown Solici?
tor requested the bank not to pay it over
without the sanction of the Attorney
General. The bank having refused to pav
any further checks, Mr. Leary commenced
the action.
An application fi..m Mi-. Leary to draw
part ol' the stun, for thc purpose o? his
defence, was at once agreed to, and paid
accordingly. After the commencement of
the action, Mr. Leary's attorney mentioned
that the balance was also required for the
defence of the prisoner, and that it would
be so applied. It was at once permitted
to be withdrawn, and :?? the matter ended.
lu the action brought against the magis?
trates and police by the proprietors of the
Irish People newspaper, the defence is
that nothing was seized in the office of
Tin- People except what wag hocessary to
the purposes of the prosecution.
The Spanish Government had joined the
Constantinople Sanitary Commission.
The London Muru inn Post says that Mr.
Gladstone's speech commits bini to a hearty
espousal of the reform hill, whenever a
practicable one shall bo produced, and
when public opinion and thu state of par
tics shall allow of its being passed; but not
one word seems to intimate that any such
bil) will be brought forward by the Govern?
ment in the coming session.
The Times says that thc discount demand
at the bank on the 3d was comparatively
light. In the Stock Exchange advances
had been offered at about oh per cent.
In the London money market, money was
in good demand, the minnimum rate re?
maining at 7 \i cent. Consols, on the 3d,
closed at 88j@38J for money.
Barings quote "Oar silver at 5s. l.;d.;

The stock market, on the 3d, was checked
