Celebration At the Cooper Institute.


AgreeabIy to the invitation OF General O'Neiil,
President Of the Fenian Brotherhood, q large as
sembiage met In the hall Of the Cooper Institute
last evening, to celebrate st. Patricks Day. Pre-
vious to the regular business Of the evening the
band performed number OF national and
Irish airs. General ONelll, who presided, said
tnat he did not propose to make a lengthy
Speech and would congratulate them on the cordial
response given TO the invitation to assemble and
celebrate the national festival OF Ireland. During
the last month he had spoken in the principal cities
OF the Northern and western states and found In all
the places visited that the OF Ireland was more
prosperous than at any former period. There have
been many ways adopted for celebrating the day. but
he would most approve OF employing 1t In devlsng
means to accomplish the freedom OF Ireland.
In every place he had found the same sentiment pre-
val among his cOuntrymen, that although exiles
they would not forget the land which gave them
birth, and impatiently awaited the day when they
would return to wreak vengeance on the oppressor.
This organization which mad been 80 much derided
had compelled British M inisters to offer measures
which they expected would concilate Ireland. They
assume that the disestaDlshment OF the irish Church
VIII satisfy the Irish people cres OF never ana they
endeavored to represent that Irish grievances we're
OF a sectarlan character, but while landl0rdiSm re-
NAMED they would not be satisfied nor cease their
lab0rs. Before he joined the organization he be.
lieved the Fenians were right and that liberty was
within the grasp OF the Irish people. He would not
give up his hopes If light did not take place this or
next year. but when In the judgment OF military
men they were prepared to commence the fight that
will be the hour or action. Ii arms are placed at
their disposal they Will make movement as they
did before, but would not be forced to make
premature one.

The name OF the great ST. Patrick struck o chord in

Patrick. When he landed in Ireland the true God
was unknown, but his lndefatigable labors were
crowned with unmlstakaDle success. He preached
the gospel OF peace OF Jesus, God and man. and re-

dered most fitting eulogy to the steadfastness,
patience and perseverance exhibited by the Irish
people under the great influence brought to bear
against them under trials and bitter persecu-

famine and oppression and they stood their ground
with the sure anchor Of religion. Tne inheritance

While England yielded to the barbartsms OF the age
Ireland proved faithful in the hour OF adversity:
The reverend gentleman concluded an eloquent
and interesting discourse by hoping that Ireland,
that had so relgiously preserved the faith, would
one day be restored to its national rights and pryi
leges. The discourse was throughout listened to
with great interest and devotion. At its conclusion
the solemn ceremonies were proceeded with, and
were brought to close shortly after one O'Clock.

The Tennessee Elections.

The canvas in Tennessee has as
sumed new phase, the extreme Rad
reals having swung round from the
old cry of prescription to tho new
doctrine of removing oil political dis
abilities. There are two candidates
for Governor in the field-Senter and
Stokes both Radicals. Senter by the
resignation of Brownlow, now United
States Senator, became acting Cover,
nor of the State. lie is supported by
Brownlow, who after laboring for
four years to fill the statute books
with proscriptive legislation, is now
writing dogmatic letters in which he
declares that for the Tennessee Rad
icals to continue the restrictive poll
cy is mischievous and ridiculous.
Scntcr in his address to the people
says that the privilege of tho elective
franchise shonld be restored and ex-
tended, so as to embrace tho mass of
the adult population of the State.
Stokes bids as high as Senter, and
between the two, disfranchisement in
Tennessee is believed to bo at an end.
1t is generally admitted, however,
that the sentcr party have repented
at the eleventh hour for the sake of
success. And yet Senter holds the
election in his own hands, for Brown
lows franchise laws give the Governor
the power to appoint Registration
commissioners, who will only grant
certificates to men OF the right stripe.
That he should have made bid for
popularity is proof that his party
feel that if they persist in defranchis-
Ing tho rebels, after while the rebels
may in turn disfrachise them. But it
will take about two years to amend
the constitution by striking out the
disfranchising clauses, and there are
hundreds of conservative Republicans
who opposed Brownlow in his extreme
intolerance, who will now as firmly
oppose his extreme 1iberality. None
Of the Tennessee Radicals can be
trusted, and while both parties are
Radicals, it matters but little which
side whips. There is it seems, some
alarm in both camps. One violent
Radical writes that eff both Senter
and Stokes run to tho end the Demo-
Gratis will be found, after their votes
are counted next August, to have
elected Andrew johnson Governor of
Tennessee" and that .asuch an event
will require the. presence Of large
Union Army in the State or thesquiet
exodus of the loyal whites and their
colored friends" This fellow is evil

Speak to the Children.
OsKALoosA, Iowa.

Nearly quarter Of a century has
passed since the writer was on a visit
to the far West. While stopping for
a day in one of the most staid and
Pnritanic country towns little girl
about twelve years of age, among
other persons, was often passing
through the room where I sitting.
At first I took no more notice of her
than of the rest; but suddenly as she
was passing, I felt strong impress
sion that I must speak to her about
her soul and her Saviour. Satan as
usual, suggested, "Foly, all folly :"
but yielded to the fifst ana best in
f1uence, and when she returned asked
her, as others we present. if she
would like to show me her garden.
she pleasantly said, yes, So while
showing me her flowers, I said to her
all I felt impressed to say: and al
though 1 cannot now remember one
sentence, yet think I shall never
forget the relief and sweet peace that
[ enjoyed as we returned to the house
although I could perceive no impress
sion made upon her mind. Immedi-
ately after this we parted. Three
years elapsed, when one day a lady
just returned; from visit to her ma
tive town, called to see me. It was the
town where the girl lived. She sta
ted that she came to see me by special
request. That soon after her arrival
in R----, this child, now young
lady, called to inquire if Mrs. --,
did not ivein her town and. when
told that she did, was much delighted
wished her present me many thanks
forkind warning o few years before, as
1t was the means Of ringing her to
Jesus. And, added the lady, that

same little girl who like a. true and
faithful Christian, went around and
exhorted others not to go but to come
with her precious Jesus; until, in a
little while, more than one hundred
were hopefully converted and, ,nnited

Gollusions with Crime. The Detective
/ - System.

! 81 will obtain that watch for you
if you meet me at such place to-
! morrow noou with $780," was the re-
mark made by New York detective
few days since to gentleman who
had fallen among thieves at the races.
The offer was accepted and the stolen
property forthcoming. Occurrences
of this character, and they arc very
frequent, afford good grounds for the
belief so generally prevailing that
many of our detectives have perfect
understanding with the light-hngered
gentry, in accordance with which tho
latter steal and the former act as
agents or middle-men for the restora-
ton of the property to tho owner and
the securing of rewards. Some of
the heavy bond robberies during the
past three years have revealed an
amount of iniquity among those set
to overhaul tho thieves fully as great
as exists among the thieves them
selves. And what is true of many
detectives, wo fear, is equally true of
many of the police.
A striking instance of the relations
sometimes existing between the police
and the predatory classes, against
which they arc supposed to protect
the public, has just been presented at
Lambeth, England. Sergeant Ham
one day received a letter from Rich
ards, an inspector of tbs Brighton
Railway Company's detective police
expressing desire to see him every
particular about some business.
They met accordingly, and Richards
said: "You and Ranger (anothcr con-
stable) have got old Black Miles and
ALLY Green (two men charged with
theft; } suppose you don't want to
get them convicted do your" Ham
replied: mo, not particularly" and
Richards went on to say that if tho
sergeant and the other constable
would swear that that they had made
inquiries and found the stolen proper
ty belonged to some one whom the
prisoners would send to "buff'' it
that is, own it-they should have EGO
between them. The negotiation was
at once reported to the superintend-
ent at Lambeth, and as soon as it had
been completed by payment of the
bribe, Richards and another man,
equivocally described as "a dealer in
jeweiry," who had also taken part in
the transaction, were arrested. It
was further alleged that Richards
was on intimate terms with thieves,
frequenting their public houses, sha-
king hands with them, and even re-
ceiving visits from them at his own
where he had q fine assortment of
skeleton-keys and similar implements.
These details are certainly calculated
to produces some uneasiness i'm the
public mind. Although Richards was
in the service, not of the public, but
of ar railway company, itwas, accord.
ing to the charge against him, on the
Metropolitan Police that he exercised
his corrupting influence, and on whose
cooperation he relied in his schemes
for foiling justice.--N. Y. Com. Id.
