,Sir:-I have received, through the State De
partment, a dispatch from the Consul of the
United States at Aspinwall, stating that cat
tie disease along the line of the Panama rail-
road has made its appearance, and a consider
able number are dying daily. The writer does
not seem to regard the disease as the rinder-
pest, but deem it important that great care
should be used ia regard to all entries of hides
from the vicinities named. You will admit
none without being fully satisfied that they
are free from disease.

except upon the miscellaneous list, which

New York, April 12-The Herald's East
port, Me-, special says: Since my last dis
patch another English war ship, making al
together three, and a revenue cutter, have
arrived. During the last twelve hours sew
eral hundred Fenians have quartered them
selves at Calais and other places.
To-day Fenian schooner escaped from
aneighboring cove with detachment of
Fenians. The United States Marshal and
the British Consul arrived at the spot Just
in time to be too late.
There has been q mysterious disappear
ance of several cannon brought here by un-
known parties. Cartridges are being man
ufactured here.
There is tremendous excitement at St..
Andrews. and volunteers are deserting,
while numerous mysterious disappearances
of numbers of Irishmen in the frontier
towns are rumored. They are supposed to
have joined the Fenians. Whole families
are flying from the border.

CALAIS, ME-, April 12.-There was much
excitement yesterday and last night at st.
Stephens, New Brunswick, opposite this
city. The fears of Fenian raid some
where on the frontier have been strength
ening for several days past, but the precise
point of attack Is not yet known.
Reports from Eastport yesterday indicate
that Fenians are leaving there in squads,
supposed for Calais, but up to this hour
they have not shown themselves here
About fifteen supposed Fenians arrived
here last night from Bangor and left this
morning for Eastport. They could have
gone by water at half the expense and
time.
From 250 to 300 men were under arms at
st. Stephens all last night, and all the ap-
proaches to the town are strongly guarded
and every preparation made to receive the
Fenians. An attack was reported last night,
buteverything passed off quietly.
The force at st. Stephens will be increas-
ed to-day to about 500 men.
Large numbers of Fenians are believed to
be moving east, but no definite information
can be gathered.
Preparations I'm Toronto.
TORONTO, G. w., April 12.-The cabinet
meets daily, but the proceedings are kept
from the public. The report that cases of
arms had arrived at Ottawa and mysteri-
ously disappeared is contradicted. The
whole force of volunteers at Montreal are
called twice week.
Additional volunteers are arriving at
Cornwall, in anticipation oftrouble in con-
nection with the arrests of Fenians.
The report that President johnson is go
ing to issue proclamation in reference to
the Fenian movement is received with
much satisfaction.

nOunces the Action of tIlS Con.
Ven1iOm.

Nav ORLEANS. April 12.-Gov. Hamil-
ton, of Texas, made speech at Austin re-
Gently, in which he opposed some ordi-
nances passed by the Convention, as not
being Republican or meeting the demand
made upon their constitutionality. They
had passed one ordinance which accorded
fully with the Presidents policy, and that
was declaridg the war debt null and void.
He appealed from the action of the Con-
ventiOn to the people. The Convention had
passed an ordinance exempting all persons
who, under authority of civil or military
power, had inflicted injury upon persons
during the war, from being held account
able. He called upon the loyal people of
the State to work together. He believed
provision should be made to admit the ne
gro to vote if he became elevated and came
up to certain standard. The convention
had refused this, and refused to give
the blacks any quota OF the schoo
fund or make any provision for their edu-
cation. They had, however, been taxed to
assist the whites in sending their children
to school. He intended to announce to the
people those vino had worked against the
interests of the State.

New YORK, April 12.--The Herald's
Washington special says: Iu the District
Court of the United States at Alexandria,

important decision was rendered yesterday.
Thomas Garvine was imprisoned some time

under the supposition that the Presidents
proclamation restored that writ THE case
was argued before Judge Underwood, who
decided that the proclamation did not
restore the writ.

An order has been issued by the War
Department to all the assistant commission

the recent proclamation of the President
did not release them from the operations
and government of military law. 1t is
cautiously worded, and while not declaring
