THE FEN1Ay EXCITEMENT
has now nearly supslded; while 1t lasted the
spell was very powerful, and melted the filth
full to prodiecus e1ertlou to help the cause as
embodied in the forward movement against
Canada. The Robcrts-sweeny party quite
snuiled ont The O'Mahoney party here, by
their activity aud zeal, and In addition to the
six hundred men actually forwarded to the
seat OF var, upwards of four hundred moro
had been enrolled for similar
purpose, and would have been sent
forward ert' this were 1t not for the
collapse Of the plans Of the leaders. Not
only were the men active, but the Fentan
siste7hood also displayed great energy in pre-
pairing lint and hospital comforts for the men
whom It was naturally expected would be
wounded In the bloody engagements which
It was predicted would take place on British
son unless the red coats ali ran away or sur
rendered at discretion. There arc some IN
stances where men Left lucrative sltnations to
Join the Fenion army, and in one shop no less
than twenty hands left Tor that purpose. The
balance generously donated one days pay to
helping their comrades along In short the
infatnatlon was complete and was lar more
widely diHused Than Ia generally supposed.
THE ARRESTS AND TR1ALB.

toruey Generals order to arrest the promf-
nent leaders in the Fenian cause, stirred up
an angry commotIon here. The arrests were
made, however, with great dellcacy. One Of
the parties, ,named III. Mcbride, happened
to be sick in bed aud was not disturbed It
all. The others were simply requested to
consider themselves under arrest, aud gave
their paroles, q Ia .ratairt to hp2eaE tor trial

POLITICAL KPPECT OF TIE ARRESTS.
The greatest wrath and Indignation Is man
| lfesied by the Irish toward the President aud
Secretary Seward, for their interference In the
mid on Canada. They are rayenous for re-
yenge on the President, and II an election
were held to-murTow they would 90 en- n,a.ss

evening organ had savage attack on the
District Attorney and Judge Treat, for doug
their duty In prosecuting the Fenlans. It Is
understood quite commotlon has also been
stirred up by the IRISH against the United
States ofl}ctn1s who turned their backs on the
Feuians ut the critical moment.
CoPPERnEAps TO TIE FRONT.
The furry among the Efsh, on account Of
the treachery OF their political asoictates,

or force them to gulp down doctrines which
they declare are odl0uA. With this view they
have raised respectable sum of money and

Conservatives Who claim to be original
Union men are standing aglast at the pros
pect Of doing without the Irish vote at the
next election. In st. Louis the Irish vote
forms three.fourths OF the strength OF the Cop
Conservatives who are bowling SO vigorously
for Andy johnson, would be a death blow.
Perhaps the Conservatives may be compelled
for self.protectfon to help the Radicals en-.
lorce the odious Registry Law after all.
TIE THREE GOVERNORS.
Ihe speeches Of Gov. Stone, Of Iowa, Gov.
Oeesby. Of Illinois, and GOV. Fletcher, of
Missouri, have had powerful effect In arous-
Ing the masses in the interior to fuller con-
ccptlon OF the danger they are In 1t the dis
loyal men now seeking to control the State
succeed In thelr schemes. Gov. Og1esby
made fine impression during his late visit,
and our State Central Committee arc an11ous
to secure him for a more extended tour
through the State similar to that which
Gov. 9tope, Of Iowa, Is about fpish-
ing. The meeting Of the three Governors
on the speakers stand, at Jefferson City, on
Friday evening, will draw an Immense con-
course Of people Tie Pacific Railroad will
run excursion trains rom both ends Of the
road to accommodate the people. The cool
esl part Of tho programme is the announce
nent that General Blair will also be present
to reply to the three Governors. This Is
new featurc ia political campaign, that
when one party makes Its appolotmen3! the
speakers Of the other have right to intIude
themselves, whether invited OF not.
u cowARDLT PROCEEDING.
It h reported that snndrT anonymous let

principal steamboat packet companies threat
ening destruction to every steamboat whose
eaSs ens5s decline to discharge negro deck
Of these threats it, is recorded thut the
steamer Magnolia, now'lyiug ut tho lcVee for
repairs, has twice been set on fire during the
last fortnight These threats uaquestiouably
proceed from gnng OF Irish labor

successful, the negroes went to work. The
steamboatmen, by way Of revenge 70 the au-
tnors Of the strike, resolved to employ
only negroes, and now the disappointed Irish

MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS.
The transfer Of the southwest branch Of
The Pacific, Railroad still hangs fire. Colonel
Maupin, one Of the commissioners, states, In
q public card, that the security offered for
the future payments due In the proposed con.
tract, is not sufficient, and, therefore, he will
not sign TIC contract. It seems to be under
stood, however, that the Governor thinks
differently. and that Fremont and party will
get the road L. he brings any portion Of his

rest of the purchase money.
