A FENIAN ORGANIzATIoN.-Mr. Jas. Bren-
nan, the Fenian organizer, returned to this
city yesterday from Mobile, where he has been
organizing for the last two weeks. He gives
an encouraging account of the progress of the
cause in that city. Several meetings were
held and large additions made to the ranks of
the brotherhood. Besides this, parties from
Montgomery, and other cities in Alabama,
have solicited him to address meetings and
organize new circles when he returns to that
State.
Mr.. Brennan spoke last night at private
meeting of the "Emmet" circle of this city,
which is, we understand, in very fourishing
condition. He assures us that the success of
Fenianism at the South amongst his country
men, may now be set down as fact beyond
a shadow of doubt. He leaves here in few
days for Galveston, Texas.

Grant and the Oniee-Holders,
:. Mackn writes to the Cincinnati Euouir

Mack writes to the Cincinnati Enquirer as
follows:
There are very strong limitations thrown out
that Gen. Grant will move slowly in the change of
ce.holders, and that he will by no means re-
cognize the rotation principle. Especially will
this be true in regard to men who served In the
army and have since the close of the war been
appointed to office. So fear Mr.. Aleck Sands's
elate for Hamilton county, which includes
all Our old friends of the Chronicle, will
be badly smashed. There is not q man on
that slate who was south of the Ohio river
during the war, although believe they ell claim
stayed at home Ito fight copperheads in the rear"
Fighting rebels at the front is q better recon-
mendaiion 10 Grant than fighting copperheads in
the rear, because no one knows better than he
that the latter branch of the service consisted
mostly in getting government contracts. Let
every man who has good soldiers record behind
him, and whom the Radicals want to GUST. see to
to it that General Grant knows the fact Of
bis faithful service, and there is little doubt
that he will be retained in spite of all the
efforts Of the cliques and combinations in
favor of civilians. Ohio Is full of this class
of office-holders. They will Gil be turned out IL
the clques can do it-but they can all be kept in,
if the advice of this paragraph is acted upon. I
am well satisfied this Is true as to most of the
making raid upon them all, but he can be out.
1anked by prompt action and that assurance to
Gen. Grant, which the people will readily give,
that no changes are either needed or desired, as
none are likely to be for the better. Let the
hungry Chronicle fellows get in as best they can.
They ought to consider themselves well enough
of in the undsputed enjoyment of the honors Of
the official organ of the city and county,
What more do they want? Is there no limit to
their ambition?

ment are not sincere. If they we're honest in their
desire TO make the Christian religion the founda-
ton Of the national viii, they would not, as they
do now hand over the education Of the children
Of the nation to goddess common schools, where.
% the present condition Of society proves the in

establishing schools for the education Of their

The OpERA-The third performance this season
of the "HuQuenots" attracted an excellent house
at the Opera last evening. A considerable i'm
provement upon previous performances should be
noticed.
Tomorrow, at the request of many who have
not awaited themselves of the repeated opportun
ties they had to hear Roland at Roncevaux - this
opera will be repeated. Thursday we hope we
Roland which is his best. On Saturday we are
probably to have the " Grand Duchess Of Gerol-
STEM" and on Monday Mr.. Peront boldly ventures
to sing "Don Giovanni for his benefit. Mr.. Per-
ont deserves . crowded house.
DRAMATIC READNGs.-There are, we imagine,
few of our readers who during the late unpleasant
ness have not become familiar with the name and
services of Miss Belle Boyd, one Of the two young
ladies who this evening are to entertain rs by
dramatic readings at the National Theater. Miss
Boyd bears an enviable reputation for real lite
rary taste as well talent. and will not fail, we
are well assured to afford rare entertainment for
those who attend her readings on this or to-mor-
row evening. Miss Maude st. Leon, who also
participates, 10 spoken Of inH SCATTERING terms by
those who have heard her. We await the oppor-
tunify which she may afford rs to indorse the COM
pliments Of others, and anticipate finding full
attendance present on both occasions.
VARIErrEs.-To-night those who desire to wit.
ness rare Bit of historic romance performed
In exquisite taste and with complete surround
iDgs, will be afforded an opportunity by the third
representation Of Giacommettos great play OF
4" Elizabeth" with Mary Gadstane In the leading
character. We find very much to admire 10 the
performance as presented for the last two nights,
and can recommend II to all those who appreciate
accurate and truthful impersonations of those
about whom History has wrapped q mantle Of
interest.
ST. CHARLES" Foul Play" will be repeated
this evening. and probably for the last time this
season, with Miss Price 10 her happy impersons-
ton of Helen RoLeston, the heroine, and Mr..
Pope as Req John Hazel, q character IN which,
spite OF the frequent Representations Of the piece.
We have not yet wearied in seeing him.
Tomorrow night, Fairy Fingers" q new

duced, and on the following night the occasion
OF Miss Prices farewell benefit, will be repeated.
On Sunday night the obliging treasurer, Mr.. P.

Miss Jansuschek.
HUNPTY DUNPrY.-The ballet presented 10 con.
nection with this popular psntomime should be
alone sufficient attraction for any reasonable
amusement seeker. Les Arragonaise,n dance
in character by Messrs. Csrdella, st. Ody and
Szolossy, and Mlles. Antonino, Gslletti and
Cribelli, was given last evening with zest, and
at the same time display of artistic skill which

MRS. SURRATs's REMANs.-The remains of Mrs
Surratt were disinterred Monday afternoon at the
arsenal grounds, and were reinterred at Mount
Oiivet Catholic Cemetery yesterday afternoon, in
presence of her daughter Annie aud son Isaac.
No display or parade took place on the occasion.
The box containing Mrs. Surrstt's body was
composed it was not offensive. The dress, CATERS
and black silk bow at the neck were all In per.
feet state Of preservation. The hair was also
perfectly preserved, and did not appear disar.
ranged in the least. A steel arrow pin, with
which Annie Surrstt fastened the bow about her
mothers neck, just before she was led to execu-
ton, was also in its place. A lock of hair was
clipped on at her own request. The order for
the delivery of the remains to Mrs. Surratts rela.
tives was obtained from the president by Rev.
Father Walter, of st. Patrick's Church.

A CONSERVATIVE ON RELATIONS WITH THE
UNITED SrATEs.-A meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce Of Liverpool was held on the 18th, to
hear an address from Mr.. Greaves the Conserva-
tive member of Parliament from Liverpool.
Mr.: Greaves expected that the treaty nego-
tiated with the American minister for the Ala
bims claims was sure to be ratified by the United
states Senate. He said the American claims
were maze Win . dignity, and maintained with
forbearance, that were fully appreciated by Eng.
land. she bad, in consequence met the advances
OF the United States more than half way, and re-
ceded from principles which had been regarded
as fundamental in the British Constitution. The
result Of such conduct said Mr.. Gresves, "a for.
bids that party politics SHALL in any degree inter-
iere with the honorable arrangements which have
been made between the two countries.n

One of our contemporaries rather elabor-
ately asserts that the persons who contrived
the projected city charter, did not make any
arrangement with the Radicals on the metro
politan police question. But nobody says
that they did. What the CRESCENT stated is
demonstrated by the new charter itself-that
the authors of that instrument provided for
the maintenance of the metropolitan system;
which, coming from persons assuming to
represent the public opinion of New Orleans,
was equivalent to an offer of surrender on that
point. Denials of specific arrangements and
agreements cannot alter that fact; and the
CRESCENT does not intend that it shall be
kept out of view.

1t was time for Mr.. Cushing. or for some
other pushing character in the compound yo-
cation of Spectator, attorney, and quasi
diplomat, to hurry down to Bogota, in the in
terest of American commerce, and stir up the
Darien ship canal project. Though the most
feasible of all projects of the kind, it has
been, since its first conception, about as slum-
berous as the Seven Sleepers. As we once
took occasion in these columns to show at
some length, the expectation that the trade of
Western Europe with the Indies and China
will ever flow across the United States by any
of the Pacific railroads, is altogether delusive.
But this is not the worst The onk Pacific
railroad which is near completion, or likely
to be completed for many years,
cannot, in the nature of things, satisfy the
wants of American commerce in respect to
Eastern trade. Even if it were not subject
to interruption by severity of climate for five
or six months of the year, it would not,
unless its track were doubled or tripled, su-
persede entirely the use of ships, steam or
sail for the importation of Eastern goods.
Nor yet with those conditions would it sup
ply the Atlantic portion of the United States
with merchandise from China, from Hindoo-
stan, from Java, sumatra or Ceylon, after the
Suez ship canal should have been opened to
the trade of the world And this event, it is
confidently predicted, will be an accom-
plished fact in the course of the COM
ing year. For the Atlantic ports of the
United States it will offer an immeasurably
cheaper route than the one via San
Francisco Besides, the transportation by
sea will be continuous via the Suez route;
whereas the other will involve the necessity
of complementing several thousand miles
of ocean navigation with costly carriage of
three thousand miles by rail. But it is
Western Europe that will be particularly ben
Gifted by the connection of the Mediterranean
with the Red Sea; the shortest for that part
Of the world of all routes to the far East in
the absence of railroad from the Eastern
shore of the Mediterranean through Persia
and down the valley of the Ganges; and, in
almost any possible case, the cheapest of all.
There is but one way to equalize the position
Of American commerce in respect to Eastern
trade with that which Western Europe will
occupy when it has command of the Suez
ship canal, and that is by opening similar
canal across the Isthmus of Darien.

Resolutions were introduced by Mr.. Shields
in the council last night appointing COM
mittee to investigate the charges brought by
some of the city papers against the members
of the municipal government We would sug-
gest that as the Picayune and Bee seem to
be peculiarly well informed as to the negotia-
tons between Mr.. Ray and the members of
the city government, against whom the
accusations are brought, the editors of those
papers would cheerfully respond to an invita-
ton to testify before the committee.

Butler threatens to impeach Wade. This
is very pretty quarrel between the two great
impeachers. But why don't Butler turn his
attention to Colfax, who was just as guilty as
Wade on Buffers theory? Colfax could be
expelled from the speakers chair by simple
vote of the House. If Butler doesn't carry
this point he will have to give up his position
as Radical leader.

When Butler appealed from Wade's decision
in the Georgia case, the emphatic vice-pres-
ident simply remarked that Butler might ap-
peal and be-consigned, in advance of his
time, to the place of future punishments.
The sentence is prominently just but not
exactly parliamentary. However, Wade is
trooly loil person, and no doubt thinks it
necessary to take the oath on all occa-
sions.

The special telegrammer of the Springfield
Republican telegraphs to that paper that
" forty or fifty congressman were going out
for good next March, and were only anxious

scalawag portion of it, which, as Shakespeare
