NEW YORK, March l.-Phe news of the
suspension Of habeds corpus, and the arrest
Of one hundred more Fenians in ireland,
created considerable excitement at Union
Square headquarters yesterday. A meeting
OF the Council was at once held and impor-
tant measures taken. Circulars were AZ
once issued from headquarters, calling on
the various Circles TO meet and take steps
for the important news just received. Is Is
inferred that the Emperor of France is pre-
pared 10 recognize Ireland as a belligerent
power the moment she asserts her right
to such a claim.
The Irish People, the organ of the Broth
erhood at Union square, publishes the fol-
lowing

friends in ireland are already lighting, and
/ bitter are the deuunciatIOns Of the senate

next mail that the Fenians are fighting in
Ireland, extremes Will be gone to here aud
acts OF violence committed.

NEW lORE, March 2.-The following reso-
lutiOus were adopted at a meeting OF the as
sociaton Of bank officers yesterday:
WHEREAS, Measures are under considera-
ton IN Congress for the consideration OF the
public debt, having also in view as their
ultimate object tho restoration Of the cur
rency to a specie basis.
hes0tDed, That this association deem all
those deliberations to be timely aud appro-
pirate, and demanded by the best interest
Of the country.
Resol0ed, That we deem it to be an indis-
pensable prerequisite Of such measures that
Il systematic plan be adopted for the regu-
lar redemption Of National Bank notes, as
recommended both by the Secretary Of the
Treasury and the Comptroller of Currency.
Res0iUed, That without such plan in ei-
fective operation any movement toward the
curtailmeut of the legal tender issue will
inevitably result in the substitution of a
currency calculated to protract indefinitely
existing financial d ticulties, and to increase
the embarrassmests, both Of the Govern
ment and people"

Chill and Peru. 1t is said further tnat he |
was the bearer Of Government dispatches to |
the Captain General, with orders to send out /
5000 troops to join the sqsudron in the Pa |
clhc. IL is stated that General Dutce has |
strong objections 10 do any such thing, /
not only in view Of the uncertain and per |
picking aspect OF the times, but also owing |
70 the difficulties OF providing for such an |
emergency.
