This brotherhood or society, 81 far from
promoting the interest Of the country, only
lends TO aEgravate its evil, checking bust
ness, increasing poverty, and placing power
into the hands of Orangemen, as appears
from the r~ejoicings in their press, snd Civ

/ the Fenians are enriched by taxes levied on
the simplicity and good-faith of our coun-
trvmen, and have been raised to a position
which they can live splendidly, and sur
round themselves with all the state pomp Of
a meek court. But how different is the

brotherhood, have been left without en-

the most stringent circumstance, and for
which tor foolish hopes and fallacious prom

to excite the popular feeling IN IA

trymen that great events and wonderful
revolutionary movements were Impending

more freely with their money. While Head |
Centers were thus enriched in America, |
their unhappy agents in Ireland, having
become the victims Of spies and intormers,
were brought before the public tribunals
and condemned to drag out q miserable
existence amongst felons in all the horrors
Of penal servitude. The moral effects of
Feniauism have been most deplorable.
The Londen Times Of February 18th says;
There is reason for believing that small
arms Of spurious manufacture have been
sold in extraordinary numbers received by
g firm in the city of London, and that fresh
consignrleuts have been made TO the firm
in question, and have disposed Of IS many
as 5000 muskets Of the kind mentioned,
and have in their possession 5000 more
barrels, supposed 10 DO Austrian manufsc-
ture, aud have been originally fabricated
for the Confederate service during the
American civil war, but that was only con-
lecture. Ope Of the gun-barreis was taken
10 the Mansion House on Saturday With a
view 20 an application for a summons
against the parties selling them, on the
grounds that they do not bear the mark or
brand of either . London OF Birmingham

ferring 20 the Ieuian movement, he s2id.
/ answer, We have not made any replies.
We have cause to deplors much that has
taken place there, but we have had no cause
which would have Just fed us in making
representation 10 the Government of the
United States upon the subject. For Gods
sake let US who are anxious and justly anX-
ious TO maintain our own country as a sane
tuary against every undue and doubtful de-
mand Of q foreign government, have little
forbearance and liberation in judging Of the
proceedings of governments OF other couu-

some legal tenders Of S28, 600, 900 of Impe-

doubt that the Confederacy in Mexico is

orders inconsistent with their own desire. .
