Daily State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis, Ind.) 1861-1865, 1865-06-30

The Loadon Times ia still troubled with Fen
ian ASPIRATIONS. In its issue of the 18th instant,
We find another elaborate article, intended, like
those preceding it, 10 prove to the English people
that the Fenian movement IS not OF much con
sequence, and that there is no cause for appre
hension concerning it, Well. if il is of no con-
sequence. where is the necessity for these re
peated dissertations The fact that the Times
labors so persstently and go assiduously to prove
that England has no fear OF The Fenans, is the
very best evidence that there is fear, which it is
seeking to allay, and when il uses such argu
ment as the following. the truth becomes still
more apparent:
lone soldier cannot fight against FIVE, and If
every Fenisn Of the Brotherhood we're landed on
the shores OF Ireland. and there joined by every
Fenian OF native growth, the whole body could
not oppose TO the power of Great Britain fifth
part of the resistance offered by the Confeder
ates TO the Federals."
We "incline to think that" fifth part of the
resistance offered by the Confederates to the
Federalists. would be quite enough tor the pur-
pose OF the Fenans. That would give them in
the neighborhood of one hundred thousand men,
including thousands of tie very bes, American
soldiers, and the Times can approximate the
probable result of sighting such force, by
ing back 10 the history of the war of 1912, and
that OF the Revolution. England has never yet
mustered army of one hundred thousand men.
Ii has more soldiers than that in the aggregate,
but thew scattered all-over the world, and il
requires ell the resources of the Kingdom TO keep
Up lIs foreign earrisOns. The Times will be com
PEELED TO take u basis for its argument
against the Fenians, for that in question would
bring England out OF the fight second best, !"

The seth roster Inrerna, Machine.

Ii is not long since we witnessed the trial of
a hand grenade. new inv ention by Msjor Book
ing. Yesterday we learned of another successful
trial by the Major with the above named ma
chine. which took place few miles above the
city. This machine looks like an ordinary music
box. internally as well externally. 1t can be
regulated so as to explode at any given period,
from fifteen minutes up to three hundred and
sixty i've days. 1t can be used for mining or for
blowing up Notifications, or anv similar purpose
On the top Of the box 10 a barrel, two or two and
half feet in length. in which be put the de
sired amount OF powder As soon as the ma
chnery stops hammer explodes a cap and dis
charges the barrel into the powder 1t is a very
powerful and important invention for war uses
Major Booking not long since made success
tul tria! with new kind of torpedo. in the form
OF hsb. which swims in the water, with or
against the current, and explodes when it strikes.
1t has little propeller wheel, and is very
simple AID plain arrangement. M-jor Booking
Is hard at work upon his ingenious inventions,
and promises trial of the two internal machines
as soon as he returns from Washington, for
which place he is to leave in few DAYS 10 bring

1exv political, combination.

An organization has been formed in New York
called the United Service society, composed ex
clusivey of officers and men OF the army and
navy. Its members pledge their united individ-
usl effort to secure preference in the dstribu-
ton of positions of public trust and profit to
those who have served in the military or naval
service during the late rebellion" They declare
that the events of the call for new political
combinations. and have rendered obsolete the
main questions heretofore dividing the great pot-
icsl parties Of the country. The platform of the
organization is conservative, its most important
declaration being one of approval Of the Presi
dents policy OF reconstruction.
1t has been surmised by many that a new po-
Etical party would spring from the military ele-
ment after the conclusion OF the war, and in this
organization we have the attempt to form such a
one. We have no faith, however, that it will ac-
quire any prominence or exert an extended in
huence. In local elections. candidates who have
seen service in the field will, no doubt. acquire
additional strength from that fact. but the pres
ent political parties are too well organized, and
those who have been in the army are, most of
them. too much attached 10 one or the other Of
these organic ltons, to desert them The Dem
ocratic party is entirely confident that the Re
publican organization will be broken and defeated
At the next Presidential election. The Republi-
can party is confident that its discussions will be
healed when the question of its existence is de-
pendent thereon. Under such circumstances,
whatever new questions nav arise will not be
provocative OF new parties The existing par
ties will take their positions upon issues. as
they must prove in harmony or sntagonism with
their present principles. The Democratic party
had no misgivings to its duty when President
johnson announced his policy of recoDstruc.
ton. Ii will have none on other questions as
they shall be presented for action.-Chicago
Times.
