THE FENIANs.
The Fenians had an immense meeting
at the Cooper Institute last night, Colonel
0MahOny presiding. Much enthusiasm
prevailed. An address was delivered by
Colonel Roberts, in the course of which he
said "To you then, fellow countrymen of
every creed and belief, appeal to stand
by the Fenians and enable them to make
the coming revolution successful by fur
nishing means of war to brave men who
are preparing to strike one more blow for
Irish liberty and Irish independence. You
cannot stay no power on earth, but that of
force can stay the movement of Irish
patriots, who, mastering silently and live
ly from Cork to Donegal, and from Dublin
to Connemsrs, from New York to New
Orleans, shd from Maine to California,
they will soon be on the march with Harp
and Sun flying in the breeza." Colonel
OMahony and Colonel John Hermon,
also delivered addresses.
The World gives some facts in reference
to FeniAns. There are at present 500 cir.
eles in the country, and they are increasing
at the rate of 100 per month. These cir
cles number from 100 to 300 men. There
are about 800 circles in the country pre-
sided over by Miss Maheny, who is the
female head. Sha ia n-inoinel nf the NJ
