A Fenian meeting took place at City
Hall on Thanksgiving evening, on which
occasion James Brennan of New York,
Stephens sympathizer, was the orator.
The Times says that "during his re-
marks he made bitter allusion to Capt.
John Lonergan, accusing him of being
both Roberts and O'Mahony man at
the same time. Capt. l.. Indignantly re-
PEELED the soft impeachment and showed
conclusively that he had always been q
true Fenian.' Mr.. Brennan attempted
to controvert Capt. Lonergan's state
ments and many words were banded be-
tween the two orators, at which the au-
dience were especially delighted. The
Captain evidentlyIhad the best Of the dis
cussion and the sympathy ofa large ma
jority of the people.

Is DKCAPITATIoN PAINFUL "A French
journal in discussing the above subject,
says that four ringleaders in mutiny
at sea were executed at Brest, France,
last month, and their bodies were given
to the surgeons for dissection. Some in
teresting experiments made upon them
are thus described
"Next to the bodies rolled up in nap
kins, we're four livid heads. The work
of dissection commenced instantly. The
continual contractability of the heart
was proved, as well as in the sorts, where
sensitiveness was extreme. The con-
tractability was manifested on simply
touching the part, and of course was still
more apparent when subject to electric
currents. The muscular contraction
was so intense that even after twenty
minutes one of the doctors, on applying
the electric current, made the four heads
grimace in the most horrible manner
Oillie's face especially assumed the most
frightful expression. A pencil was
placed between Oillie's teeth 4; it was
bitten through and smashed as though il
was made of glass"

BURLINGTON ITEMs.-A man named
Theodore CRANKY was brought before
Justice Hollenbeck, on Friday, on a
charge of arson, in fqing the barn of
Hubert Poro of that city on the previous
Tuesday evening. The evidence elected

was discharged.
Dennis McNertsey, residing on Lake

Wednesday evening last, where poor
whiskey was freely INDUCED in by the
participants in the festivities, and one
John McCarty got fighting drunk, when
he drew knife and threatened to iBjure
some of the parties present, who, he al
legged, had insulted his mother. The
consequence was that John and his
mother received pressing invitation
from Sheriff Munson to pass the remain
der of the night in Jail, and the next
morning Justice Hollenbeck fined John

amount for breach OF the peace.

An IMPORTANT DEorsroN.-It will be
recollected that the celebrated case of
Isaac McDaniels, Executor OF James
Mechanics, V. Thomas McDaniels, apt,
commonly called the "McDaniels will
case" was tried at the last September
Term of the Rutland County Cours, the
trial lasting eighteen days and resulting
in verdict for the plaintiff. A motion
to set aside the verdict was thereupon
filed by the counsel for the defendant,
for several causes, only two of which
were urged on the hearing, namely: Let.
That the jury wholly misconceived the
charges of the Court; I'd. That the jury
were tampered with. The County Court
took a recess on the 18th day of October,
until the 9th day of November, to en-
able the parties to take testimony. The
affidavits of all the jurors, and that Of
the officer in attendance upon them were
produced by the defendant, showing they
misunderstood the charge Of the Court
as to the measure and burden of proof,
and also testimony in support of the
second ground named in the motion,
which testimony in rebuttal was taken
in behalf of the plaintiff. The hearing
on the motion took place at the Court
House in this village, on the 9th and
2Sth days of November, his Honor,
Judge PRcK, presiding. 1t was claimed
by the counsel for the plaintiff that
jurors affidavits are inadmissable for the
purpose of showing that they misunder-
stood the charge of the Court, and they
also claimed that the affidavits of some
of them were shaken by the cross exam
ination to which they were subjected
TheCourt, without pausing upon the ques.
tion raised upon the first named ground
set aside the verdict rendered by the
jury, and ordered a new trial on the sec
ond ground alleged on the motion, which
| is as follows: "For that some of SAID
panel of jurors, after they were impan
nelled, and during the progress of the
trial, and out of Court, were convened
with upon the subject of said cause, an6
favorably to the proponent, by tht
agents, emmissaries and friends of Isaac
McDaniels, and were by them urged ant
solicited and influenced by improper con
versations with said jurors, or in thei
presence, to render verdict in favor 0
the proponent.'
The motion was argued by G., G. Dewey
Esq. and Gov. Dillingham; for the defend
ant, and by Mr. Edgerton and Mr.. Rob
erts for the plaintiff,

EURoPE.-The Atlantic cable puts us in
possession of European advlces oFriday.
A Paris dispatch states that Secretary
Stewards late lengthy cable dispatch to
the United States Minister in Paris, re-
lated in the main, to the march of the
French troops from Mexico, and the ex-
preston of the hope that Napoleon
would carry out his intention in that
respect. The official statements and
hopes were conveyed in dignified and
concilliatory tone.
A correspondent of the New York
Herald writing from Dublin on the 18th
inst, furnishes very interesting and
calmly written account Of the Fenian
position at that date, as well as of the
sentiment of the people towards it. The
wants and miseries of the inhabitants
under British rule are set forth as con-
stituting the exciting cause of a revolu-
tiOnaary outbreak, which the writer
seemed to anticipate.

THE ROMAN LEGIoy.-The regiment
vnder the above name which is co be the
Po2e's providence after the departure of
the French troops, seems to be much
more devoted to the interests of Napol-
con III than those of Plus TX. When a
few weeks ago, these soldiers were pre-
sented with their flag, at Viterbo, they
were very much disappointed to find it
was yellow and white. An eye witness
writes to p0pinioa Nst;onQZe, one of the
first papers of Paris when the gen-

The BRITISH NoRTHwBsT.-The two
British provinces in the Northwest
Vancouver's Island and British Colum-
bia-have been united into one, the first
named giving up its capital, Victoria,
and its officials to the other. This will
save one set of very cumbersome and
expensive machinery, and so lessen the
taxes, which are the chief cause of
grievance to business men in both prov
inces. 1t may thus temporarily weaken,
but it will not stamp out, the growing
cause of annexation to the United States
away up there.

VIENNA CLOSED AGAINST THE JBsUITs.
The recent attitude of the municipal
council of Vienna against the Jesuits is
very remarkable, as we learn from LIE
Moniteur. That body has almost unani-
mously refused to receive the disciples of
Loyala. The council having appointed
a committee of five to take the matter
into consideration, they proposed that the
Jesuits should not be received in the
capital Of Austria, which proposition
was adopted, only three voting against
it. Mr.. Shrank, one of the members of
this commission, did shrink from the
duty assigned to him in his report, he
says: THE Jesuits, the most dangerous
of all religious orders in a political point
of view, have too long robbed the coun-
try. If we allow them to come among
As, they will establish themselves, and it
will not be possible to send them away.
1t is time to guard the country from the
danger that threatens it. They aim at

1t would be another disgrace to Austria,
if we allowed them to establish them

ronism. The Jesuits cannot be placed
on the same footing with honorable citi-
zens, for they are dispensed Of the obli-
CATION of having diplomas as other pro-
fessors. They must not enter Austria !;
they are too dangerous. A Pope and
Joseph II have acknowledged it.
We must therefore protest we the
loyal people Of Vienna, against the es-
tabishment Of the Jesuits in our midst.
| The greatest danger is found in their
schools it is there that the sons Of the
wealthiest families receive their lessons
Of Orthodoxy. They come out with vici-
ated moral principles, and when they
have arrived to manhood, they are called
to govern. The Jesuits and the cOncor-
date are the causes of the decline OF
Austria, for our generals and ministers

1t must be admitted that this picture
is far from being flattering. Mr.. Schrank
adds in answer to an inquiry, how the
Jesuits could be dangerous to civil or.

ACCIDENT ON THE VI. q CANADA r. B.
The mail train South on the Vermont
& Canada railroad was thrown from the
track, by the displacing ofa rail about
two miles South of Milton, on Saturday
morning. The train was going at its
usual rate of speed when the accident
occurred. The entire train, consisting
of an engine, baggage car, and three
passenger cars, was thrown OFF the

the face, his iron safe falling on him, and
pedler boy, who was slightly burned
in the leg by the stove and its contents
being summarily emptied upon him.

dulged shall prove to be correct, the i'm
portance of this enterprise can scarcely

Meeting OF Congress.

To-day at l. O'Clock moon is the time
designated for the assembling OF the
asst session of the thirty-ninth Congress,
and the eyes of the nation and of the
world are turned u it and its delibera-
lions. 10 view of the persistent opposi-
ZION Of the executive of all measures
taken by i: at its last session tending
IN the reconstruction and restoration to
their former privileges and immunties
ia the Union, of the people Of the South,
who. through blindness and folly pre-
r.p.tated q monstrous rebellion upon the
government, which eliminated in a
bloody and fratricidal war, in the issue
%. which they were most ingloriously
beaten.
The fact that the executive and legis-
,ative branches of the government Oc-
ca0v positions OF hostility to each other
is. Of itself, sufficient reason for the
anxiety with which all await the open
.rg Of Congress. But when it is con-
,3ered that the recent political cam
raigns have been fought and won upon
the issues made by this hostile feeling
j. is no wonder that the people are eager
.or the re.assembling of Congress, in or
der that they may see what course that
branch of the government will take
with regard to the policy pursued by the
President since its last adjournment.
The people await anxiously for the re-
a,sembling of Congress for another rea-
sou, too. The masses having thoroughly
.rteated the Johnsonian party by the
r>e of their greatest constitutional
weapon, the ballot, and declared in un-
mistakable terms that the men who
were instrumental in delugiug the coun-
.ry with blood, and squandering
thousands of millions of its treasure,
lould sit. for a while at least, upon
The stool OF repentance, before they
we're restored to former rights and
.-vileges under the government,
they anxiously look for the open
Ing of Congress, in order to determine
Or themselves the policy hereafter to be
yursued by the President, as he will
yronably announce in his annual mes
sage as soon as the national legislature
ha, effected an organization.
We shall tomorrow morning, un-
toubtedly, be able to lay before our
leaders the proceedings of the opening
o. the session, and should the message
L 'edelivered this afternoon, will endeavor
TO lay it before the public at the same
Tine. In addition to this We would add
Il hat we have made arrangements for re-
Giving complete reports of Congress
4 ional proceedings during the session, SO

treasury of S6l9,000000. But six
months from that time June 80, 1861
there was an excess of receipts over ex-
penditures of nearly s37 100000. The
estimates of the war department for eX-
penditures for the coming fiscal year
would be nearly S240,000,000 less than
for 1865, were it not for the equalizing
bounty bill passed at the last session.
But the revenue from all sources for the
next fiscal year is estimated by the Sec
retary in the neighborhood of $500, ,000,-
600. The full expenditure for the next
year is estimated within $3.50, 900 900,
and 4 fair sum over for sinking fund.
The Secretary's report also states that
under the law of Congress, the treasury
has withdrawn from circulation during
the past six months the limit of ten mil
lions of dollars of paper money. The
total amount of United States legal ten
der notes in circulation is therefore
1886, 900 900. The most important and
gratifying fact of the report is the re-
duction of the public debt. 1t will be
shown that the public debt has been re-
duced during the past twelve months
nearly two hundred millions Of dollars
The actual figures OF the reduction are
Sl98, 637,72l. Seven millions of COM
pound interest notes illegal tenders for

temporary loans reduced nine millions.
The full smonnt of currency authorized
for national banks has been issued,
which, with the United States notes,
gives q circulating medium of nearly
100000, 900, not Including the fractional
currency On the first of last Novem-
ber, the total, including the fractional
currency, amounted to 34,218,03S 20,
and S95, 100000 of authorized national
