TIE FENiANs.-The Fenian invasion is, for the
present, apparently at an end, the men enga-
ged in it being generally on their way bome.--
They exhibit much bitterness against the Gov
eminent for its action in the matter declaring
that if the United States authorities had not in
terfered they would have been entirely sue
cessful in their undertaking. The matter has
come up in thesHouse of Representatives, in the
shape of resolution of inquiry into the truth
or falsity of the report that the British troops
captured and killed one or more of the Fenians
on the soil of Vermont, and there seems TO be
but little doubt that such was the case. -

SUPPOSED lNFANTIcIDE.-A white female infant

The Denocratic PARTY.

Ex-Gov. Thomas. in one of his late speeches,
thus describes the Democratic party
q That word Democracy was once an honor
able party name. 1t was borne by Jefferson, the
Apostle, might almost say, ofAmerican liberty.
Il was borne By jackson, who reorganized the
old Democratic party from its disturbed and d.
vided elements in 1924. In its original signi6-
cation it is fitly named. 1t is derived from de-
mos, Greek word signifying the people, and
" krateo, to govern-the people TO govern
But when applied to that class of men who have
assumed it in their reasonable attempt to over
throw the Government simply because they had
been defeated in Presidential election it is cru
ely prostituted, and has no power to rally the
old guard of the Democratic party. Even if /
were disposed to have kindly sympathy for my
misguided fellow-citizens could not justly man
ifest it when they congregate under this much
abused name. A Democrat would always sub
nit to the majority. But at what are they now
engaged? They meet at public assemblies and
give utterance to their uppermost and most
heart-treasured sentiments. Have you seen one
single resolution congratulating the country up
on the fact that our glorious Government has
been restored-that our Union has been preserv-
ed-that the authority Of this Government has
been extended over every foot of soil originally
within our boundaries Do you find them ut
tering heartfelt thanks to the gallant boys who
bore our banner over so many bloody fields OIL
the South Do you find them uttering one word
of rebuke to the traitors, or the principles and
dispositions of Southern men-the unsubdued
Rebels Do you find them denying to the Gov.
eminent of the United States the right to pay for
emancipated negroes Do you find them sane
tioning constitutional amendment that will
prevent the Congress of the United States having
the power that may hereafter tamper with thous.
ands of millions ofdollars, an amount of worth.
less scrip to be made valuable by its assumption
by the Government of the United States Do
you find them passing resolutions breathing the
| true spirit of patriotism They will endorse
T President Johnson, and why Because they
would propose to bring in again to this Govern
ment the very men who have been in open re-
belllon. while the sneaking sympathizers were
cowardly keeping out of the way and out of the
reach of every kind of danger. They would
! come into the Union again to endanger the per
petuty of the Constitution, whose preservation
has cost US so much blood and treasure.

rs The editor of the Journal invites us to
step into his Office and examine certain names
which are in his possession, though to what
document these signatures are appended the
editor does not condescend to inform us. We
take it for granted, however, that they are the
same names about which the Journal made such
a tremendous splutter some time ago, when it
town to support President Johnson and which
meeting was to surpass anything of the kind ever
held in Maryland or out of it. Ifthis is the list
friend Ruby refers to, please excuse us /; we do
not want to examine it; we know the material
of which it is composed We know that it con-
tains the name of every rebel, traitor y
copperhead and Democrat in the county, and
also of some few good Union men who were in
duced by false representations to sign it. Those
names have no terrors for Union men weknow
them and their antecedents.
But what has this list of names to do with our
proposition to the Journal That paper charged
that at the Union meeting on the 23d instant,
the audience embraced as many Johnson men as
it did those who endorsed Congress. This we
denied, and challenged proof of the assertion,
and now the Journal knowing, probably, the
falsehood of its statement, shirks the question,
and invites us to look at lot of names. Does
the Journal pretend to say that those " two
thousand sgners were at our meeting IF this
is the drift oftheir argument, what becomes Of
its assertion that only ESQ persons were at the
meeting
The Journal then goes on to volunteer the in
telligence that the 6 great cry of rebel and
traitor is pretty nearly FUN out" Do not be
too certain of this. The recollection Of the IN.
told sorrows broughtupo our country by reb-
els I" and TRAITORS " will outIive the present
generation. Treason will not be forgotten in q
day, and in future years the children of the land
will be told Of fathers and brothers who have
fallen in this great struggle for the preservation
of the Union, and will be taught to despise the
traitor of 1861 as we abhor the Arnold of the
Revolution. The men who so freely gave their
lives, and whose bones now bleach upon the
hillsides and in the valleys of the South, will not
be soon forgotten, nor will the fact that their
death was caused by tredson-that " rebels y and
traitors struck the blow that consigned them
to unhallowed graves Think not the memory
of these things will be forgotten they will live
in history and tradition Ia ghost to haunt-the
opponents of the Union through all coming time.

The ouestion Of the trial of this distinguished
traitor. has lately come up before Judge Under
wood, of the United States District Court Of Vir-
cinia. JEFF. had been indicted in that court
for high treason and it was expected that his
trial would be had at that term. Distinguished
counsel, including Charles O'Ccnnor, of New
York, and Geo. w. Brown, of Baltimore, were
present to defend him, but for some cause the
Court decided to postpone the case until Novem-
Der. Application was then made for the privi-
lege Of bail, any amount ofsecurity being offered.
This Judge Underwood refused stating his
opinion that Mr.. Davis was in military and not in
civil custody, and that he could not interfere
President johnson was then appealed to, but his
decision is not yet known, further than that he
has said he would transfer the prisoner to the
jurisdiction of the Virginia Court, if writ Of
habeas corpus should be issued to bring him be-
fore that tribunal. Neither Judge Underwood
nor Chief Justice Chase, consider the offence Of
Davis bailable one.
The strangest part of this affair, is that Hor-
ace Greedy, editor of the New York Tribune is
using all his influence for the release Of Mr. Da-
Wis, for that purpose visiting the President, and
Judge Underwood, and offering to become bonds
man for his appearance. In an editorial on the
subject, in the Tribune, Mr.. Greedy demands, in
frage' that Davis " shall have the full lega
rights secured to him by the Constitution anG
laws of the land, and urges his release on the
ground that harshness towards him tends to en-
gender new bitterness between the North and
South, and to indispese the latter to accept his
plan of construction-universa suffrage and
universal amnesty.
While the Tribune takes this view of the ques
ton, Mr. Raymond, of the New York Times, q
paper that cannot by any means be charged with
radicalism,) takes an entirely different one
That paper says that Mr.. Davis was the head and
front Of the rebellion under whose auspices
Union soldiers were starved to death by thous-
ands, and under whose direction agents were en-
ployed 10 introduce courageous diseases into 10y
al cities, burn our cities and assassinate oui
President. After commenting upon the course
of Mr.. Greedy the Times says: And now,
while Davis is living upon the fat of the land al
Fortress Monroe, Mr. Greedy rusbeS to Washing
ton to offer bail, so that not punishment o
the mildest character should be inflicted upon q
man s0hose head, in any other country, sOould haU'
come off for any one Of has many treasOns."
Judging by the dispatches from Fortress Mon
roe, that institution seems to be placed at the
disposal Of Davis and his friends. On Monday
last, he was visited by notorious blockade-run
ner from Richmond, who spent the night in hi'
rooms, and there seems, says the despatch, to b
g no lack of visitors )" visiting friends and
sympathizers often call and have interviews with
Davis and his wife, always rendering assurance
of their esteem and offers of assistance"
