The same paper says it is feared, with regard to the Royal Naval Reserve, that the Fenian disaffection has spread con- siderably. A strong feeling is entertained in Liverpool in favor of a rigorous and prompt canvass of both the Voiunteer aud Naval reserve forces, in order to discover ‘recreants.’ It is stated that delegates ‘from Liverpool and Dublin proceeded to New York by the steamer on Wednesday, having previously met st Queenstown; the object or mission, it is alleged, being to cousult the stronger party iu America as to what action shail be taken. ‘here is a story circulating in Liverpool that the per- son who has acted as treasurer of fhe Li- verpool centre, and who left the town some days ago, but bas since returned, was asked to return the funds that had beeo subserib- ed.

No such calamity has befallen Constantinople during tne present century, if, indeed, since the conquest. Nearly half the space thus reduced to a desert of ashes was inhabited by the poorest mussulman po- pulation, fifteen or twenty thousand of whom are thus reduced to absolute want.

They found him ia the shop and called him into the street, where they charged him with high treason, | explained their errand, and apprehended him. Without allowing bim to communi- cate with his family, and with the object of preventing any excitement in the neighbor- hood, they conveyed him at once to the police station in Da'e Street, and placed him in a ecll. When he was first con- ‘fronted with the officers outside his own ‘house, he said: ‘You have no right to touch me; 1 am an American subj-ct, and [ have a paper in my pocket to show it.’ At the Detective office be was aguin for- mally charged, and he asked to see the /authority for his arrest. The warrant, iv which he was charged with divers other persons for treasonable purposes, was shown to him, and be repeated that he was an American subject, and produced a certificate (or what purported to be a certificate) of his naturalization as an American subject. Afier be had been locked up, the officers returned to his hou-e and made a search, which was, 1 believe, so far successful that they obiained possession of most imporiant |papers. Some of these, it is said, were letters from headquarters in America recog- nisiog bim as the * delegate representing | Lancashire io the Fenian Brotverhood.’ | Others are alleged to have been cowmuni- | cations trom New York, Londoa, Sheffield,

‘that Archdeacon had visited a large num-

bodies in America. He is a native of Bal- lincoltiy, near Cork, and his relatives were respectable farmers ia that locality. He and M:Afferty, with a seditious ballad singer, were conveyed by train from Queens- town on Thursday evening, and marched handeuffed through the city to the county jail, surrounded by a somewhat formidable force of constabulary, and followed by a large crowd of women and boys, who occa- sioually cheered them. He and the two other prisoners were lodged in the county jail, the mob oot extending their sympathy for them farther than cheering now aud again

The eleven prisoners in the city jail are coufined in separate cells, and are allowed to see no one without an order from the High Sheriff, exeept their Solicitor, Mr. M. J. Gollins. Funds are being rapid!y con- tributed for their defence, and Mr. Collius has retained as their counsel Mr. Butt, Q.C., and Mr. Waters. une of the alleged prin- cipal organisers in the city, Mr. J. J. Geary, for whom a reward of £100 has been of: tered, has not as yet been arrested, and it is rumoured that he has contrived to escape to France. On three occasions since his escape his house, which is said to have as many intricate windings as a labyrioth, has been searched by the police. The alarming rumours circulated of disaffection amongst the military in garrison, have not in the least abated, and the strict confinement of

mounted couriers through the city almost every tep minutes, from Barrackion to Bal- lincolog, the artillery station, seem to lend

BaLLaGHaDERREEN, Sept. 27.—On awak- ing ut grey dawn on yesterday your corres- poudent was surprised to bear and see frow | ‘his bedroom window police moving to and | fro, and who at this hour bad their * day's work over.’’ Ou coming to the door the | cavalry orderly galloped by and in a moment | my curiosity was satisfied. I learved that | | during the night no less than 13 young men | had been arrested aud lodged in the police | barrack here on a charge of being members | (some very active and prominent) of the So- ciety of Fenians, and of being engaged in | practising drill. Among those arrested and | now transmitted to Castiebar Gaol are two or three militiamen aud a national teacher. | [ shall probably send you in a day or two the names of ail, with their respective call- ings.

Tuomastowy, Sept. 27 —This evening, at about five o'clock, the police arrested two young men in this town accused of being in ‘volved in the prevailing foolish couspiracy. | The unfortunate dupes are James Connor, a sawyer, and James-Nixon a carpenter, the | latter an ex-militiaman. Their accuser Is said to be a fellow, a brogue maker, who ‘has beep committed to the county gaol, tu ‘be brought forward at the proper time to give evidence against these avd doubtless other mis-guided youths. ‘The prisoners are remanded tor a further’ investigation.

Granted, as correct, the views of a Halifax, N. S., contemporary when it says that ‘“*the magnavimity and generosity with which the mother country now treats her Colonial offspring are alto- gether unprecendented in the history of the world’’—does it follow, therefore, that the machinery of Government, necessary to the proper wanagement of half a continent, can be as well administered through an irrespon- sible Colonial Minister three thousand miles away, as by Kepreseutatives elected from and directly responsible to the people?

We note that a leading ministerial paper in Canada has come to see with us—and ac- knowledge—that even the promised Luter- colonial Railway gwurantee is in danger o! being withbeld ; and we should be glad if we could believe the same journal tu be as sincere in its desire for either the connect- ing railway, or the enlarged scheme of Con- federatiop, as we are ourselves.

WASHINGTON AND OLTAWA. 1 (Dr.McKay’s Correspondence to the Londen Times) Washington is a place of immense promise and amall performance. Its design upon the topographical ehart is magnificent. its ac- tual condition is pretty and disappointing — a mixture of imposing public edifices, separ- ated from each other by long intervals of in- ferior or halt-built streets ; in which the pig- stye, the cabbage garden, and the wooden shanty, alternate with the brick house and the marble mansion. Unpaved and unfinish-

an ancient militia or standing army, em- | present Coalition Ministry is perhaps better ed, dirty and, disreputable, swarming with

beershops, groggeries, gambligg dene, and brothels, Washington can give no otifer ex- cuse for its existence than the meetigg of Congress, which would have been much bet ter houged at New York.
