The Fenian Armv of Invasion.

The Roberts wing of the Fenan Brotherhood
have removed their base of operations to their
new, headquarters, No. aO6 Broadway. The
Civil Department, under the superintendence Of
Mr.. OSulllvan the energetic Secretary tor Civil
Affairs, have effected a retreat from the Jones
House, and promise to remain at their present
quarters until accommodations have been pro-
cured for them at HALIFAX, Quebec, or Montreal.
The War Department, under the authority and
control of General T. +. Sweeney, will also re-
move to the same building in few days, with
the staff The entire floor, one hundred feet in
depth by twenty-tive will be used by the Civil
and War Departments. Money is pouring in
fast to the Golfers of President Roberts. Ten TO
fifteen thousand dollars day is the average. A
committee of two gentlemen, Mr.. Shields, eX-
foreman of Forty-one Hose, and Mr.. Mooney,
waited upon Mr.. 0Sullivan to inform him that
a subscription was about to be made by the
drivers and conductors of the avenue and d
lines of railroad, for the purpose of purchasing
arms and munitions of war. From Maine to
Oregon communications are being received
by General Sweeney, asking for the
proper authority to raise companies of
infantry, cavalry, and artillery, to serve in the
field against Canada or any of the British North
American possessions. General Sweeney turns
the communications over to General TaVis who
has the requisite power to raise the companies,
and when organized they are mustered in by
Colonel Michael Murphy, Commissary-Gene
of Musters. That officer has his hands full of
business In the cavalry regiment organized
by Colonel Murphy, twelve companies the
increased to twenty-five, so great is the enthu-
siasm to have a slap at the British Lion.
Colonel John Warren's regiment of infantry
is quite full, and another regiment in pro
gress of organization. Officers of all grades,
from the ma ajorgeneral to the heardless second
Lieutenant, offer their services daily, and are
accepted by General Sweeney. Whenever Gen
eral Sweeney makes a movement 1T is certain
that he will have the support, advice, and mill
tary judgment OF the best military minds in
America. The Canadian journals made great
| fuss about the Sweeney raid" as they termed
| it, which their dstempered brains had coniured
| up for st. datrick's day. Now General Sweeney
| keeps hls own counsel and it would be nothing
| less than sheer madness in that officer to make
| an attack upon certain part or point ofCanada,
| or elsewhere, just at the moment when the
| British authorities were prepared for and eX.
| peeted him. Besides, the Governor-General of
| Canada has no special reasons for believing
| that Sweeney will ever attack Canada at all On
the other hand, to show that there is such a
| thing as Fenian army organized and under
| the command Of General Thomas Sweeney, we
will simply give the number of men mustered
| into the service of the Fenian organization,

These l5, 600 may be increased to $4,000 at the

Of good regiments viii arrive at Halifax before
the lst OF April, as reinforcement to the 1900

Canadians. 1t consists of the militia on paper
commonly estimated at from 5000 to 500 000 not
one of whom but what would take to their heels
like the English at Culloden, were they to be
confronted with good soldiers under a leader
like Sweeney.
But if the Canadians have reserve, Sweeney
has also q reserve of more availability consist
ing of the entire Irish population of the United
States, which will flock over the border at the
instant that the cowardly Canadians threaten TO
show any interference. SO that the fight will
certainly be between General Sweeney's 5000
Fenians, and Sir John Miches 10000 regulars
and 600 volunteers. This is the way the case
stands at present. Let the Canadian journals
preserve the eguers given above for future refer
ence, when Roberts and Sweeney march over

The United States Court Of claims.
The President has approved the act in relation
to the Court of Claims. It repeals the fourteenth
section of the act establishing that tribunal
which section provides that no money shall be
paid out of the treasusy for any claim passed
upon by the Court till after an appropriation
therefor shall be estimated by the Secretary of
the Treasury. The present law allows either
party to appeal to the Supreme Court of the
United States from any final Judgment or decree
which may hereafter be rendered in any case
wherein the amount in controversy exceeds $4,000
The amended act allows an appeal at any time
within ninety days, excepting in such cases
