BUFFALO. N. Y. Oct. IL i


BUFFALO, N. Y, Oct IT, 4
In pursuance of orders issued by the Attor-
ney General of the United States, with the
concurrence Of the Secretary of War, u. s.
District Attorney Dart gave instructions to
Gen. Barry, commanding the Military District,
to turn over the arms seized from Fenians in
this city and other parts within this Military
District upon their giving bond double the
amount of the arms, to be approved by Judge
n. x. Hall, that the arms shall not be used in
violation OF our neutrality laws. There were
twenty boxes of arms seized here valued at
$2500. This general order was procured at
the intervention of Hon. James M. Humphrey
Of this city, the Cabinet taking the position
that as our Government had abandoned the
prosecution of the Fenian officers and soldiers,
it could not consistently hold their private
property. Several thousand dollars worth of
arms held at Erie, Oswego Plattsburg, Ma
lone, Troy and other places, will be turned
over at the same time. 1t is said by the Fe-
mans that the arms will be sold to Santa An

A dispatch from New York, dated The
10th, says:
Gen. Jno. II. GIeeson. Captain Conlon
and Major Conerford have arrived from
Ireland. The two ..:mcr were released
by the government on condition Of leaving
at once for America. While confined
they had correspondence with Mr.. VI est,
United States consul at Dublin, who
admitted they were American citizens, but
stated that the Lord Lieutenant would
deal with them the same as ordinar,
subjects
Maj jnr Comerford comes as an envoy to
Mr.. Stephens, and says the numerical
strength aud hopes of the Fenans in
Ireland are better now than when Sleph
ems left; that the people are determined
to fight, aid or no aid from America
Their contiderce in Stephens is unabated,
and they coudemn the conducl of the
faction in America.
A dispatch from Troy, n. Y, says ~
immense Fenian demonstration took place
there on the GIght of the 17th inst
A Fenian pic nic was recently held near
Buffalo, at which $4,000 persons were
present It looks as if 'rhere was some
thing in TIE wind again, as there is
greet activity in the brotherhood all over
the land.
The President has ordered the
release Of the Fenian prisoners in New
York, by directing the IT, S. Attorney to
enter nolle prosc7uis in their cases.

A FooLIsH ATTEMpT.-The fanatical
Abolition press is just now engaged in
attempting to fool and deceive what they
call the Ignorant Irish " into joining
that party of isms, and even the poor
Smut Machine has gone SO far as to de-
vote a large space to the ridiculous
movement. These Abolition Irish haters
and Church burners little know what
they are doing. What party in this
country should Irishmen belong to but
the Democratic party What other party
in this country has ever maintained the
rights Of Iishmen and made haste to
bestow on them the privileges of citizen
ship? What has the Abolition party ever
done for 1rishmen that it uow presumes
to ask their votes? 1t has mobbed them.
1t has burned their converts and their
churches. |, has denied them the privi-
lege of voting. l: has charged them with
every vice Of which humanity is capable
1t has alleged that Irishmen fill our jaiIs
and peniten,iaries that they are the cut
throats, thieves, burglars, and highway
robbers infesting society; and it was
unanimous in denouncing the President
for not more rigidly enforcing the neu>
trali'y laws. 1t ridiculed the invasion Of
Canada. 1t scoiFed at the miseries Of
Ireland. Now it thinks it can catch a
few Irish votes, and lie long defamers aud
venomous haters Of Irishmen think that
By insulting them fer being Democrats,
and making promises as hollow as their
pretended friendship is hypocritica!, they
will inGuce them to join the Abolition
ranks. 1t is but few months since that
the Irishmen Of this county were designa-
ted as rebels," traitors" draft deser-
ters," and the like, by the same Smut
Machine, and now 1t has the impudence
to ask their votes. 1t will get tLem-in
a horn.

A SwINDLE-A Gift Concert has been
extensively advertised in the Milwaukee
papers of late. 1t came off on tie 12'h,
and several persons drew prizes, but when
they went to get the cash for their prize
tickets it was found that the managers Of
the concern had flown, and those who
drew prizes were no better off than those
who drew blanks. 1t is said the swinders
sold tickets TO the amount of 500 600.
One Of them has been arrested, but
another is still at large.
One of these swindIing concerns is ad-
veltised in " God and morality" paper
published in this place. A man who
would be accessory to swindling the sub
scribers of his paper should be sent to
