are being steadily received per cable night
and day. From the debris of reports we
infer that a body of Fenians 1900 strong,

royal troops were victorious, and took 30
prisoners. Among the latter was the Fe-
MAN General Lance The English reports
state that the Government does not feel
any alarm at the aspect of affairs, as effi-
cient measures have been taken and are
being taken to suppress attempts at insur-
rection throughout Ireland. AS late as the
18th, the excitement, both in Great Britain
and among Fenian sympathizers in this
country, was intense.

kindly ones He was about thirty one
years of age. His remains were buried in

lowed to the grave by great number of
friends and literary men, The United
