The dispatches they sill look upou As unsauzf1c-

They calculate that at least 10000 men ought to

they denounce the dispatches II lies nauufactur- |

news, and ssy 1t Is impossible to ind two des-
patches that will hang together, and tnat u they
DO not hong together they cannot hang alone on

1t would be untrue tot that invading stock fell
yesterday but 1t certainly did not Ttse until the H.
ternoon, when the following despatch WAS received
lrum MI. r1nnetty and Major AcCmre.
Roxx, N. T., Nay u
All is well The men arc arm. The British re-
pulsed, and 800 captured Puah thtngA VIC WILL
FnNER1T AND MCCLURE.
That would seem to Indicate that things had
not gone to smash altogether, and, As the authors
Of the despatch were strictly enjolned not to exag-
gcEAte, hut conne themselves strictly TO the truth
considerable confidence VITA placed In the news.
II the same correspondents report shAt thlnga
have gone up generally, It will be accepted as
true, but uprl then the work here will be prose-
m. %hnr atrh a
cheerful tendency. II Was a. follows:
BUFFALO, May 2S
A. L. Horizon:
Good nera Send MI the men and money possl-
bic. JAMES WAEl.AN.
That also elated the boys. although the stgood
news" was not specined, and the despatch was
vexaiioualy vague and indefinite.
Then came third despatch, fom Rev. Father
MeMahon, who figured conEp!cuously In the nrst
attempt, when he waa captured and imprisoned,
very narrowly escaping halter. He had gone on
from St Louis to run the gauntlet 4 second time,
although 1t waB certain death in case he tel Into
the hands Of the Canadians He telegTapacd as
fotlowa:
RoxE, N. T., Nays.
We xan. aa ne men that you eau send to the
front Immediately. MCMAHON.
The conclusion from this vas that men meant
something, or what did thry want them for, by
the time all these tele9rama were read the splrts
Of the audience had IN upward tendency, which
they maintained during the remainder Of the Day.
ONeil IVES hardly mentioned without the as-
compartment of m execratiou. His conduct was
regarded a. cowArl1y and treacherous, 1or It
was 1t his mitigation thai the move
ment was made, and It appeared "a II
he had base1y deserted the men be had induced to
take up at1na, and had then yolrLteeted TO be
captured.
There were some who specnaated On the proba-
tlc issue Of the attempted invasion. and many hal
falih tn ttA ultimate success They believed the
demonstration on the trout to ba I fetnt to draw
all the CANADIAN forces to the border 70 as to give
the FenlanS In the Dominion chance to rise and
march on their rear while theAmef3can Fenians at
tackled them In front Beneath all this mastery ln-
activity they belIeFed there WA decp-lald scheme
that Eould be developed In course Of tine.
These sanguine persons did not think that
O'SeIl WIS captured At I'll, but that he was per-
sonated by somebody else, and that II the proper
moment he would appear ind astonish the Cans
dians and everyone else
The enthusiasm WAS kept up remarkably well
considering everything. A large amount Of money
wa4 collected. ind ntne men forwarded. The CT.
element seems to have been contagious, md to
have spread to the country towns, where there
was much anxiety to get news, IS the following
dispatches indicate:
