! FENIAN MEETING.-An enthusiastic
meeting of the friends Of and laborers
for, Irish Independence was held at
Overman's Hall last Monday evening.
Mr.. c. Il. Mullarky was called to the
chair, who stated the object of the
meeting in few forcible and
appropriate remarks. Capt. w. H.
Grace Of Massachusetts, was then in
troduced and In . speech of eloquence
and power depleted the wrong that had
been heapcd upon Ireland and called
upon the Irish people to move at once
for the liberty of their country, closing
with an eloquent and earnest defence Of
Fenianism and its objects.
His structures on saloon politicians
and barroom statesmen, who offer the
poison to the Irish lips just before cleo
ton, and despise them while receiving
votes at the polls was quite severe and
just. He declared that two dollars each
from tho Irishmen In America would
give sufficient money with what mill
itary stores the Brotherhood had ON
hand to equip and put into the field an
army Of loo, OOomen-- enough to conquer
freedom for Ireland. At the conclu-
sion Of his speech circle was formed
In this place with the following officers !:

Treas,ver-C c. III. Mullarkys
Secretary-J. WITH. & -

About thirty circles have been formed
in this State with promising results.
Mr.. Grace served during the late war
In the 9th Mass. Infantry and is q
warm friend Of American institutions.

LATE REBELLION BY General l.. G. Baker, late
Provost Marshal and Chief Detective of the W ar

phia. Penn, Cincinnati, Ohio, and Davenport,

This is decidedly the most interesting and abb
sorbing book of the day. revealing as it does pha.
ses OF our National History, hitherto sedulously
concealed from the knowledge of the public
During his five years drectorship of the Secret
Service Bureau, General Baker learned some
strange things, and took an active part in many
dangerous and at the same time very important
enterprises All these secrets are now brought
to light, some of them rather compromise gentle
men now occupying highly responible positions;
but the author fortifes his startling accusatory
assertions by indisputable official documents.
The chapters on pardon brokerage will be read
with interest and amusent to all this is a new
phase in our National policy, and receives a tho
rough airing at the hands Of General Baker
There is also given very full and circumstan.
tial account of the great Conspiracy, from its in
cepton until the execution of the guilty Conspi.
rators. There is much that is new, curious and
interesting, divulged in this connection. The
work is complete in one handsome octave volume
of 700 pages, printed in superior manner, on
stout white paper and illustrated with seventeen
fine engravings, among them steel portrait of
the author, and a faithful representation of the
burial place of j. Wilkes Booth.

of whom. however, availed themselves of the
