The Blow About to be strucl

The Blow About to be Struck.
NEW YORK, Nov. 28.-The Worlds
queenstown correspondence of No
Vember 18th says: / send you to-day an
linking OF the most important news
which has come from Ireland for many
long day. The blow is about to be
struck at the power of Great Britain,
Within month you will hear of the
rising of the Irish people from one end
OF this unfortunate Island to the other.
The train has long been laid-the arms
are here-the men are ready and the
officers appointed-the organization is
perfected. The movement upon Cana
da was really feint, for all the while
the object was steadily kept in mind to
create an outbreak upon the old soil of
Ireland. Will not this unreasonable
outbreak, if you choose to call
1t such, again attract the at
tention of the whole world to the
chronic misgovernment of Ireland by
the English people we now suffer, and
are compelled to leave our native land.
A few OF us may be killed, but we can
be no worse of after the battle is over
and Fenianism is once more crushed.
England will not do anything for us
by Peaceable agitation. That has been
tried. Every effort made to induce the
government of Great Britain to be lust
to us has utterly failed, We are pow
erless; our arguments are unheeded;
our prayers are unanswered for our
suherings; there is no pity. Is il not
better for us to try to show the English
government that it does not pay; that
if they will not do us justice we will
make Ireland clinging curse to herH

Gen. SedEWIck Occupies MRtAmOFas.
NEW York, Nov. 28.-The Worlds
New Orleans special says:
a despatch just received from Flakes
Bulletin at Galveston, announced that
the Union Gen. Sedgwick crossed the
Rio Grande on Tuesday last with n
brigade of United States troops, and
occupied Matamoras, assuming that he
did so to protect the interests OF Ameri-
can residents in that town. The move
ment creates great excitement, as it is
not known whether this has been done
with the sanction of the Government.
The Worlds Washington special says
that the President has received a des-
patch tonight from Gen. Sheridan an
crossed the Rio Grande and occupied
Mexican territory with a detach-
ment of United States troops. He is
already In possession of the city of
MatamOras. It is understood that this
movement has been made without any
knowledge on the part of the Presi-
dent. q
NEW YORK, Nov. 2s.-The Posts
Washington special says: The Gov
eminent has received no information
OF the occupation of Matamoras by the
United States troops. A dispatch Just
received from Gen. Sheridan mentions
that such rumor is current in New
OEIeduSy DuI ne ulSCreQltS II. EXaG-
gerated reports are set atloat from
Washington in order to influence the
market.
The Commercials Washington spe-
cial says: A report prevails that a
collision had actually occurred between
the United States and the French troops
south of the Rio Grande. So far, how
ever, no reliable information has been
received. No trouble is apprehended
from the occupation of Matamoras by
the American troops, Escobado moved
upon Matamoras with a sufficient force
to defeat Canales, the mutinous liberal,
who. held the city, and as it would
surely fall, the American soldiers were
merely dispatched 10 prevent pillage
and rapine. Canales, when captured,
was to be shot by Escobado. General
Sheridan dispatched the troops on his
own responsibility. The Administra-
ton here knew nothing in advance of
the intended movement, and did not
disapprove of Sheridan's conduct.
General Sheridan was entrusted with
large discretionary power, and his
original instructions comprised a
project for a joint French and United
States protectorate, pending popular
vote on the question of republic I'M

NEW YORK, Nov. 2s.-The Herald's
Troy dispatch few days since said :
In the event of Mr.. Fargo's election to
the Presidency of the New York Rail
road he would drive the Merchants
Union Express off the road. This
statement was inadvertently incorpo-
rated in the press reports and sent west
from this city. Mr.. Far5o's character
for honorable dealing is so well estab-
lished that readers must have detected
the absurdity of such a statement.
Jud ge Nelson, at the United States
Circuit Court, delivered an opinion
yesterday in the libel case of Isaac
Cook, viz: The Tribune, the alleged
libel, charged the plaintiff with being
defaulting Paymaster, having lost
$500, 600 by gambling, and that he was
full blown knave and scoundrel. Tho
plaintiff was a Postmaster in Chicago
and the proprietor of a newspaper
there. The alleged libel charged him
with being party to numerous specu-
lations in office. Judge Nelson declar-
ed judgment for the plaintiff in all de-
murers to thepleas with leave to amend
on the usual terms.

Aid for Ireland.

BUFFALO, Nov. 2S.-The Stephens
wing of Fenians in this city, have call
ed meeting for Friday uight, to send
men and arms to Ireland. There are
5000 stand of arms here belonging to
the FOnians. OF the Roberts wing of
Fenians it is understood there is full
brigade ready for immediate move
ment. The men meet for drill every
night, by companies, at their rooms or
in the fields adjoining the city. 1t is
estimated that the Infantry branch
numbers between 1900 and $500 men,
mostly familiar with the use of arms.
One battery of light artillery is said to
be fully organized and ready to take
the field as soon as movement may be
inaugurated. The want of this effec-
tive branch, was severely felt by them
during the raid last June.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2s.-The Presi-
dent makes no secret of many impor-
tant points in his message. 1t will be
conciliatory In its tone, and will throw
upon Congress the respon sibility of
completing the work of restoring the
Union by Admitting the Southern
delegates to their seats. He takes the
ground that the Union is already re-
Stored, SO far as it can be effected by
Executive authority. The President
proposes some additional Constitution
al amendments providing for the elee-
ton of President and United States
Senators by the direct votes of the PEG
pie, without the agency of the Electoral
College and the State Legislatures.

kilograms were sent to circles in dis
tant cities, and instantly enthusiastic
responses were received. Stephens, the
Head Centre, was invisible, and it is
confidently believed that he has reached
Ireland: 1t is said that the Treasury of
the Fenians was never in a better con-
dition than at this moment. The same
excitement which existed in this city
last night, prevailed in Brooklyn. The
Irishmen of that city were excited to
fever heat, and continued appeals were
made for fresh dispatches over the At
laatic Gable.

It is supposed that the crew were lost.
She loaded at Highland Creek for Tor

TORONTO, Q. W., Nov. 2S.-In the mat
ter of the Fenian prisoners under SEN
tence, the Judges have not yet given
their decision on the application to set
aside the verdict and grant a new trial.
1t is rumored that the cause of the de-
lay is that the courts intend refusing
the rule, and are preparing deliberately
written judgements setting forth at full
length the grounds on which the deci-
sion is based. If so, it is the intention
of the prisoners counsel to apply to
have the question referred to the Court
of Error and Appeal. If they do so
two of the Judges must concur that
the objections are we'll founded, other
wise the judgement already given
stands in full force.
The journeymen printers struck for
higher wages in consequence of in
creased prices for all necessaries. The
demand has generally been conceded
to by the employers.
