ARRIVAL OF THE ASIA.

NEW YORK, MARCII 13 (Evening).

A Fenian mass meeting has been held at Boston
under the auspices of Sweeney and Roberts, at
which $lO,OOO were subscribed. The Fenians are
reported to be purchasing largely uniforms, arms,
and ammunition, for which, it is said, they have
depots in numerous American towns along the
frontiers.

NEW YORK, MARCH 15 (Evening).
Both Houses of Congress have passed the civil
Rights Bill.

In the Senate Mr. Sherman has offered a resolu-
tion, which has been referred to the Finance Com-
mittee, stipulating that for one year to come the
legal tender cui-rency shall not be reduced below
$420,000,000.
It is reported that Sir Frederick Bruce has urged
the Government to make a public expression of its
reprobation of the Fenian movement. Mr. Seward
replied that the Fenian movement was certainly of
a dangerous if not a criminal nature. So long,
however, as the leaders kept within the law the
Government would not interfere. If they contra-
vened the law the Government would issue a pro-
clamation on the subject.

Two hundred Federal troops have arrived at Fort
Porter, at Buffalo, and more are expected. It is
supposed they are sent to enforce respect for the
neutrality laws. Two Fenian companies have been
mustered into the service of the Irish Republic at
Louisville by Major Mangan, Adjutant-General of
Kentucky. They afterwards paraded through the
city.

At a Fenian meeting held at Chicago to organise
regiments armed with Henry's repeating rifle
numerous recruits were enlisted.

The Board of Aldermen and Councilmen at New
York have passed resolutions emphatically endors-
ing and encouraging Fenianism.
Tho Hibernian and Etna have arrived out.
The Africa has arrived at Halifax.

carried on. Subscriptions flow in uninterruptedly,
and the movement is reported to be spreading
throughout the South.
Mr. M'Culloch's Loan Bill has been thrown out
in the House of Representatives by 68 against 66
votes.

President Johnson has made another conversa-
tional speech, in which he said that Congress had
now been in session for three months without
accomplishing anything practical towards restoring
the South, and while continuing to oppose the
Executive plan they failed to introduce'one of their
own.

In the House of Representatives, Mr. Thaddeus
Stevens has made a speech defending the course of
Congress in those matters in which it differed with
President Johnson. Mr. Stevens expressed confi-
dence in Mr. Johnson's patriotism and honesty, but
claimed the right to differ with him and criticise his
acts. In an ironical and humorous tone he denied
that the President ever made a speech on the 22d
February, and alleged that it was a stupendous hoax
invented by the Copperheads.
Mr. Blain asked, and failed to obtain, leave to
introduce a resolution declarin.g " the house does

affairs to be unchanged. Three of the Spanish
steam-frigates, assisted by gunboats, were cruising

and Peruvian fleets.

The foreign consuls at Valparaiso had protested
against the measures of Nunez, the Spanish cora-
man.der, declaring coal to be contraband of war.
A financial panic prevailed at Lima.

CANADA.

QUEBEC, March 13 (Evening).

The Governor-General of Canada has issued a
general order, calling out the volunteers, who are to
be placed under the command of Lieut.-Gen. Sir J.
Mitchel. The Governor regrets, as a measure of pre-
caution, to call into active service so large a number
of volunteers, and says this step does not result from
the existence of a condition of war with a foreign
State, but is rendered necessary in the performance
of the duty devolving upon the Government of pro-
viding for the protection of the lives and property of
the Canadians against the threatened piratical at-
tacks of lawless men, who use the territory of a
neighbouring Power openly to organise enterprises
against the sovereign rights of the Queen, and
the security of her subjects. The Governor, con-
fidently relying on the loyal spirit of the Canadians
to meet this extraordinary state of things, feels as-
sured that, if necessary, the entire population would
come forward to resist invasion ; and he is convinced
that should the threatened attack take place, the
volunteers will be as successful in repelling such
criminal and wanton outrages against humanity and
Chiligatioll as were their anceatore when called upon
