MAN army. On being searched, his commits
sion was found upon him, and authority given
by General Sweeney to recruit Fenian bat
talon in Canada. Several other interesting
documents were also found upon him. He
openly boosted of being Fenian but says he
has done nothing to justify his arrest. He is
satisfied with the quarters assigned him and
saws Gen. Sweeney will be over shortly and

The remains of the late Hon. ID. S. Dickin-
son arrived here to-day. A committee of citi-
zens met the funeral party at SusqueAanna
and accompanied it to Binghamton. The train
was draped in mourning, and approached the
depot in perfect silence. There were thousands
assembled with uncovered heads sit approach
ed, in generation for the departed statesman,
friend and neighbor. A procession was form
ed to the sound of the solemn dirge, and with
slow and measured steps the remains were es-
corted to the late residence of the departed
statesman. The line was very imposing, con-
sisting of the Masonic fraternity, Fire Depart
ment and members of the bar, board of trus-
tees, village funeral committee and citizens
All business was suspended, public buildings
ndprivate dwellings were draped in mourning.
Profound sorrow reigned throughout the vii

rT,HE Ladies' OF the Executive Committee Of the
i SOLDIERS FAIR, to commence on the sd OF
April at City Hail, present an appeal to the Mer-
chants of Portland to aid them In the enterprise in
which they have enlisted. They ask 1t with the thor
ough understanding OF how literally and constantly
YOU have given during the last five years, and OF how
freely You respond at all times to the needs of the
suffering.
Conscious that the class for whom we now labor
have been uncared for previous to the close of the
war, but that the City, as Government, has dono
what 1t could and private charity has bestowed its
alleviations, yet have they sometimes been reduced
to extremties such we do not want our soldiers
families to suffer. We hope through the concert of
sympathy and action for these poor, that they may
even ually be aided into comfortable maintenance
Of themselves; therefore we ask your kind benevo-
lence. a ~
We ask Of you to look over your stock OF merchan-
disc and see what you willingly give to US. we
shall be grateful foT whatever you may send. Inc
ticle that may seem Of little value to you, may W
made Of pecunary value to che Fair or converted to
use for those for whom we ask t. I've present this
appeal to dealers in all kinds of merchandise, and
would give notice that or two ladies' VIII be at

The city medical officer reports that up to
last evening one hundred and seventy deaths,
including forty who died on the passage from
Liverpool, had occurred on board the steamer
England. He reports the disease as probably
a severe form of ship fever, with many of the
prominent symptoms of cholera. 1t amounts
TO a regular plague. The surviving passen-
gers have been removed, some to Her Britain
ic Majestys receiving ship Pyranees, and 9TH
ers to tents on shore at the quarantine ground.
The disease is apparently decreasing.
signed) M. M. JACKSON,
US. Consul.
There is a difference of opinion among med
ical men in reference to the disease prevalent
on board the steamship England. The num-
Der of deaths and sick are being greatly redu-
ced. To-day there was decided turn for the
better and the disease is decidedly checked
1t is confined to the steerage passengers.
The Confederation scheme is being debated
