The Fenian E1uitelnent ln Irelpnd


New YORK, October 8.--The Times
London letter of September 27, has
the following relative to tho Fenian
lexcitement:
"Some fifty arrests have been made
in Dublin, nearly as many in Cork
and a few in Liverpool and some of
tho manufacturing towns, Lancaster
among the rest. For Irish Americans
and for others, rewards of G200 and

There have beont runs upon local

humble rank of those who have been

The greatest number of the prison

to have been one who had been ad
vanced to the grade Of Colonel in the
great Fenian army, bat who, receiving
no pay, rations or forage suitable tc
his rank, had been suffered to go t.
the work. house. This unfortunate
dignitary, brooding over his wrongs
concluded that low treason to his as

1t is now an acknowledged fact that
belladonna is an antidoto for opium,

The ArchiUeS de Medicine, A short

to feel very painful spasms in her

until an hour and n half after
the accident, when hc found the patient
lying on sofa, and very pale; the
pupils were contracted to such an ex-
tent that tho orihce was reduced to q
small black point tho skin was cold
at tho oxtrOmities, the pulse low and
intcrmitting. Tho patient was in II
state of stupor, from which, however,
she could bo reused by speaking to
her. Ten drops of the alcoholic tine

in q quarter ola tumbler full OF water,

THE ELECTION.

The returns como in Glow Iy, but
enough is known to estimate the re.
suit. ,Tne majority for General Cox
will be about 10000, Lincoln's major.
ity over Mcclellan was 6O,05G, and
Smiths majority over Armstrong, al
the State election, last fall, was 54,77l.
This is agreat falling Off in tho Union
majority, but the loss is not duo to
Democratic gains from the Union
ranks. The Union men have not per,
formed the simple duty ofvoting. Con
Grad Cox was not radical enough upon
the negro question for tho Reserve
and perhaps too radical for many Un.
ion men ofSouthern Ohio.
In nearly all the strong Democrat,
counties heard from, however, there
are considerable Union gains. The
Democracy are welcome TO tho "moraI
effect" Of this reduced majority 1t is
not due to an accession to their ranks
but almost entirely due to tho neglect
~,
or dissatisfaction Of Union men.
Our majority is large enough for al
practical purposes, and We have caus,
for rejoicing rs long as We keep th,
treason spotted Democracy from pow
or. There will be small Domocrati
gain in tho Legislature, but not enough
to accomplish anything. We hay,

end OF which tho negro question will
have assumed q definite shape, and tn
Union party will continue To giv,

The following ordinance was INTRO

"Resolved, That the administration
of President Johnson has not been cir
cumscribed by local attachment; thai
his patriotism is liberal, and embraces
every section of this once happy anc
mighty Republic; that his policy, i
carried out, will soon find air the States
formerly in rebellion in theif ole

Ho says that North Carolina ut.
tempted, in May, 1861, to separate her
self from tho Federal Union. This
attempt involved her, with tho othcr

and disastrous war, the result of which
was vast expenditure of blood and
treasure on her part, and the practical
abolition of domestic slavery. She en-
tered into tho rebellion n slavo'hold.

so far as her existence rs II State, and
her rights MS q State, arc concerned,
sho has undergone no change.
The President OF tho United States
wisely determined that hor existence

but that undor that clause Of the Fcd-
oral Constitution which guarantees to

that tho policy of tho President in thi'

THE MAJORITIEs IN FAIRFIELD
COUNTY.

The following are the majorities in
this county, compared with the vote
at the Presidential election. These
are as correct as they can be made un-
Ill the official returns are received.
II will be seen that the Union gain is
$50, reducing the Democratic majori-
ty from 1888 to 1858. Fairfield coun
ty has again done her duty. Last
fall, in the Congressional contest, she
was the only county in the District
which held her own, and now, in the
Senatorial contest, she IS the only
county in the District which gives any
considerable Union gain. Athens
loses enough to oHcrsalance all gains
in Fairfield and Hooking, and to de-
feat Grosvcnor. Will our neighbors
learn from Old Fairfield ?

The Coming Eclipse,

Path of the shadow Across the United
States The AsLrOnOmtcal CaIcuia-
ttons. ..SA-
An eclipse of the sun will take place
on Thursday, Oct. 10Th, and will be
visible in several of the United States.
At the tilnc of the observation the sun
will be very near the earth, while tho
moon will be at its greatest distance,
and hence the apparent dlametor OF
the moon will be much less than that
of the sun, and tho middle of the ring
unusually great.
The phenomena of tho eclipse, its
path, &C., have been calculated and
recorded by the astronomers at the
various observatories, as at Yale and
Harvard Colleges. Wo give those
facts most interesting to the general
reader.
The path of the central eclipse over
the United States will be we'll repre-
serted by nearly straightline drawn
on map from point about ten miles
N. N. Il. Of Olympia to Jefferson, No,
and thence about eight miles N. b. Of
Charleston to tho Atlantic; and two
other lines drawn parallel thereto, to-
ward the N f. and S. w, and distance
thcrefrom about eigbty-fye goograph-
ical or one hundred English miles
will include all that portion of oul
country in which the eclipse Will be
annular, or the whole Of the moon
will be seen on the sun; but under the
GENITAL line only will the ring bo O.
uniform width throughout.
1t will be found that very large
part of Nebraska, Missouri, and Ten
ncsse, or all but the northeast anC
southwest portions, is included withir
these lines, also tho northeast part o
Kansas and Alabama, the southwest
crn half cf Kentucky, and the north
eastern of Georgia, tho southwestern
part Of Iowa, Illinois, and of Nortl

oftho districts Of Chesterfield, Marl
