Fenianism is folly. II has made plenty Of
noise, given plenty Of annoyance, robbed a
SUFFICIENT number Of servants and wasted
enorgh Of money; but it has done, after all,
literally nothing. Fuss lit is all fuss. Feath-
ers mo, the feathers have to be concealed.
Al the same time 1t is not to be denied that
Irish disafiection is fact-a fact which Is
making itself very plainly manifest The in
surrection in Ireland, which at one time, in the
estimation Of IT, friends and promoters, prom
ised 20 much, never amounted to anything II
was stined in ito cradls-if in its march 10 ma.
turity II can be said to have reached that stage.
In connection with that threatened rising there
are two things which II is impossible to re-
fuse to admit-that the insurrection has been
hopelessly put down, and that the insurrec-
tionists have been lenien.ly, even mercifully,
dealt with. Still, the suppression Of rebel
lion and the merciful treatment OF the offenders
do not necessarily imply that rebellious feel
ing has been extingushed The Irishryo are
not confined now, as they once were, to Ire
land alone. They are abundant In America,
in Australia, In Scotland and in England. The
" Irishry" have q grudge against England-sn
old grudge, well nursed and not little mag
nifed. Wherever the Irishryr are that
grudge 10 to be found. II is found in the
United States, In Canada, in the Australian
colonies, in Scotland, in OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES, in
fact, 1rishmen Of the Roman Catholic per-
suasion exist So powerful IL this feeling that
on the first occasion Of England's dinHculty with
any foreign Power the Irish element will be
found to be source Of serious danger. The
disanection which at the present moment exists
In Great Britain Ia purely Irish-Irish In Its
origin and its objects. II is not Scottish-it is
not English. 1t may be . foolish thing, this
Irish disafection, but II exercises such dis
turbing influence, and threatens, in certain
possible circumstances, TO be so serious that II
is unquesiionably the first duty Of English

The MARYLAND Nomination or General Grant.
The Republican State Convention Of Mary
land, which met in Baltimore on the 10th inst,
adopted among its earliest resolutions the fol-
lowing -" Resolved, that the republicans Of
Maryland, In convention assembled, recon-
mend to the republican party Of the Union
General Ulysses s. Grant as their candidate
for President Of the United States" II Is not
surprising that such recommendation should
be made by republicans who live on the verge
Of what was during the war the enemy's ter
ritory. and who are consequently more familiar
than it is possible for their brethren further
north to be with the actual exigencies Of the
situation. The Maryland republicans feel the
indispensable necessity Of proposing as . can
dldate for the next Presidency man whom
all sections respect and confide in az Inspired
by patriotic motives, as free from bitter parti-
san prejudices, and who IL as judicious and
magnanimous as he IL firm and heroic. II the
republican party Of the Union heed this recon-
mendation, and repudate utterly and throw
overheard all such Jonahs as Chase, Sumner,
Wade, Stevens and the rest Of the malignant
crew who have mutinously usurped the COM
mand Of the ship Of State, we may yet hope to
escape the breakers ahead and sail safely ON
towards the haven Of national peace and
prosperity.

TIE fall season of amusemens has so far
been very successful, especially with those
managers who have spared no expense or
trouble IN bringing out novelties, both musical
and dramatic, and placing them in complete
manner on the stage. The most striking
examples are Ristori's Marie Antoinette and
Tostee's La Grdnde Dachesse. The former is
regaining her old popularity and crowded
houses, which she was in danger OF losing en-
tlrely by commencing with the oftrrepeated
plays Of last season. The latter has taken
Gotham by storm, and promises to have run

In point Of amusements the metropolis Is
plentfully supplied at present, and vast sums
are weekly expended in this way. There are
about twenty-five theatres and halls in this
city, the average weekly receipts OF each
ranging from three thousand to ten thousand
dollars. If We add to this about twenty thou
sand dollars for expenses at each house, both
of managers, actors and audience, We shall not
overestimate the amount weekly expended on
amusements in the metropolis.

The President must now be fully convinced
that the people demand change Of policy on
the part Of their rulera II needs nothing else
besides the late elections to demonstrate the
fact 1t therefore becomes necessary for the
Executive to listen to this order and obey it
The first action demanded Is change Of the
Cabinet Now Is the proper time to effect that
change. The fossil remains Of the would-be
Statesmen who all the Cabinet oiaces are no
longer suited to the hmea They must give
place to the great representatives OF the con-
sentative element which is now preparing itself
to take charge OF the future desdnies Of the
country. But in making Cabinet changes Mr..
johnson must be governed by no party
passions; for It II the exercise Of these
passions on his part and on the part Of Con
gress which has so deeply awakened the
people to the necessity Of governmental
change. Let the new Cabinet be selected
irrespective Of party, and the country will
applaud.
A Cabinet change effected, Mr.. johnson
should send . message to Congress, at the open
ing Of the coming session, which, free from Sec
tional feeling, should take in the wants of the
country as o nation, and which, in the great
issues incident to general progress, will bury
the minor and petty questions which radi-
cal, democrat and copperhead have thrown In
to stir up the political sea. Let the message
indicate pause in the proconsular system of
reconstruction, and show desire to return to
the principles Of the constitutional amendment
which, last year, drew to its support the whole
common sense Of the Union. The advantage
which the President win gain by going back to
this will be immense. It will be complete
overthrow Of the radical programme, and will
restore to the Executive support which he
sadly needs to prove TO u that he Is third
part Of the government

The State RIscslou.

The election in this State to take place next
month has but little importance in any respect
There Is no issue before the people to call out
. positive expression Of sentiment as there
might have been If the frightened radicals had
not kept their niger suffrage constitution in .
safe place. Neither are the officers to be
chosen Of such consequence % to make it Of
any moment what party the supporters Of the
candidates shout for. From present appear
ances there is . probability that the result
here will be the same as in Ohio-that is, that
the democratic candidates will 60 in, not be-
cause Of the strength Of the democratic party,
but Of the apathy or detection Of the republic
there was visible withdrawal from the repub-
lican party of its voters. and full returns will
eventually show that the aggregate vote in
those States is far less than full one. It will
be the same here Republicans, disguised and
alarmed at the dangerous tendencies Of the
party that has hitherto had their confidence,
yet not willing to act with the democrats, will
stay at home and let the election 60 by de-
fault But, this election over, there will begin
real reconstruction Of parties-a grand rally
Of the conservative elements around . great
candidate fer the Presidency. With the name
Of Grant borne aloft in the name Of peace and
safety We shall see the formation OF . new and
glorious constitutional party, and the destruc-
ton and disappearance Of all the plundering
and pitiful factions that now roar for popular
favor.
