In Dnblin fire ot the parties who were arrested in the first instance at the office of the IrisA People newspaper, were committed for trial at the then next commission on a charge of high treason. There is not any new feature further in reference to the Fenian movement, except that the writers in English newspapers affect to laugh at and treat the whole affair with ridicule, and yet the authorities act as if they were ia fear and trembling on the subject. The Oi$<iijizatign in A ineiica. On Mondays National Congress of the Fenian brotherhood was held in Philadelphia, pursuant to notice published to that effect. There wort six hundred delegates present from the Northern, the Western and the Eastern States, and the affair ef Monday being only a preliminary meet ing, an accession was expected for the grand Secret Congress to be held yesterday eveuiog, which would increase the number of principal officers of the confraternity to fully one thousand men of mark influence in professional ability, military skill, wealth Bnd intelligence. One thousand officers of held rank would represent a tremendous army, whieh, if concentrated id battle array under able commanders-in-chief, would sweep England and all its plethorio riches and insolence, and abominations in the science of national crime, and misrule and oppression, into the sea. / . / The. “Rebellion Loan." The Rebellion Loan in England, as it is called, is repudiated, Thu Timet declares that no one principal in that establishment had ever sub scribed to the Rebellion loan, and Mr. (Gladstone, chancellor of the English Exchequer, gave direc tions to have his name erased from the list, as he alleges he never authorised any one to put it there. John Bull and bis ministers are trembling at the attitude lately taken by the American Press on this subject, and they all a ay now : “I had nothing to do with it." That is the last phase of the treachery|nf England to both North and South of the American Republic, but it will not do. Roman Catholic Hie hop nj Albany. On Sunday last the Bishop elect, the Rt.

Ifafl aa >rtii j Hi >ln S I) -d * 1 From Our Speoial Correspondent.] New York Citt, Oct. 18, 1865. In all the various pursuits of life with ,lnih this great city is agitated, there is not one so mysterious and uncertain, and so fleet ing in its vicissitudes and results, as the money market. Like “Will o’ the Wisp’’ in Ireland, lt allures and deceives, and those who follow u pur6ue a phantom, beautifully rendered fa miliar by Goldsmith in two lines : - And like the meteor, Allures me tar, hut as I follow flies. If the Ketchuras, who had something to |„ se , and the small fry Jenkins, el hoc genus w ho had nothing to lose except a repu tation which was not good outside the four walli of the counting house in which they were paid large salaries for doing duty, ofhees of which they betrayed—if those had annulled the reflections of the fretful, fever „b, fearful sleepless nights they suffered in a wild career, they would not be at the present writing confined in jail as common, self-con victed felons. The stock exchange and the gambling table are so nearly akin that the af j the p a _ j> ev Dr _ Loughlin, Bishop of Brooklyn, ” j *-•—n a nd the Rt. Rev. Dr. Timon, Bishop of Buffalo, the consecration sermon having been pronounc- finity can he hardly said to be “once removed, ami it is only those who know something of one or the other can form even a remote idea of the madness contracted in the pursuit of both, and the utter ruin which impends over the victim being once involved. The career of the votary of the stock exchange and the gambling table may be briefly summed up in two couplets from an illustrious author of the early christiaus, Saint Augustine, who said in reference to all passions which, once gaining the ascendant: "He who once sins, like him who slides on boe^ quickly down the slippery paths of vice ; Though conscience checks him, yet those rubs sot o'er, He slides on smoothly, and looks back no more," not until overtaken by the avalauche, as in the case of Young Ivetchnm and thu, Senile Jenkins, in whose face and form the e^lence wa? transparent that time and passion had done their worst. In this whirlpool of momentary gambling m the dock exchange in Europe as well as in America, there is no bona fide data by which the outsiders, as well as those involved, can be guided. Im my last letter, I gave you a sum mary of the sales of stock for a given period tn the stock exchange, whereby it was made manifest that the transactions there could not be valued dollar for dollar in paying and sell ing, for the amount which it was set forth had changed hands in one brief period of the pres ent year, would be more than three times the amoimt of the National debt of the United States, and hence what was the pro rata value current all that time. During the past week, from Monday to Saturday inclusive, the money market was fluctuating, exciting and depress ing alternately, and the quotations ranged ac cordingly in the value of Gold from 146 3-4 as the highest to 144 1-2 as the lowest, and every intermediate fraction was touched in the course of the week. The causes assigned for the rapid perturbations referred to, are by some, to the vast amount of Government gold thrown on the market for safe, by others to the alarm treated in London by the Fenian movement and the withdrawal of Gold from the Banks, and the consequent advance in the rate of dis count in the United Kingdom of Great Britain f rom 4 1-2, 5 and 6 per cent, in a few days, and the so ew being applied by banking insti tutions in England and Ireland. Those are mere conjectures, and the money dealers them selves are just as much enlightened on the subject as the greenest outsider who holds a thousand dollars above his daily calls, not knowing what to do with them.

In Liverpool the cotton market was not only nchve but exciting.

Railway Accident in Pennsylvania. A deplorable railroad accident occurred on Saturday last at Lancaster, Pennsylvania, by which nine persons were killed and several more seriously injured, men. women and chil dren. The sad affair was occasioned by the breaking of an axle of one of the carriages, and the tearing out of the bottoms of the after ca'rriages in which the victims were seated. Crime in New York. It-is a sad record which must be chronicled daily in this city, and with which the great majority -of the people are so familiar that that each case passes away like a petty case of minor occurrence, one event succeed- ingthe "Other so rapidly that the former a few hour* gone by is lost eight of in tbe later oc currence. The state of crime in New York is so fearful in extent and operation and frequen cy withal, that one of the morning journals, the Times, introduces the latest atrocity with the ominious words: “The Usual Saturday Night Murder.” This barbarous disaster occurred in a drink ing house at half-past two o’clock on Suuday morning. The proprietor of a drinking store or saloon in Hudson street, named Bamming, a German, was stabbed in four places, from the effects of which he suddenly expired.— The perpetrator is at large. • There are several other atrocious crimes narrated in Monday morning’s papers, which are further recorded in detail in the columns of all tbe New York papers under the heads of, “Stabbing Affray," “Atrocious Murder,” “Shooting Affair.” “Female Brutally Assault ed,” “Army Sutler Robbed,” “Found Dead- Cause Unknown,” and various others, the re volting details of which would not be worth the space they would occupy in sustaining an idea of moral sense in the prevalence of so much depravity. A Professing Fenian, namec Foley, stabbed Florence McCarthy, because the latter said in joke that the Fenians “ought to be all drowned.” t , Flections for Senatorial Rank. All New York is in commotion pending the forthcoming elections of candidates for Sena torial rank in the next Congress of the Arrteri can Union. K r ery day conventions and sub committees are sitting actively engaged in pursuit of the object in hand. The Republi cans and the Democrats, and the Democrats and the Republican’s seem to hare the course all to themselves ; the Radicals and the Aboli tionists, and I believe one or two other ista and als. do not appear any where butin print— to use the phrase of the race course, ‘ ‘they are nowhere,” and yet it is said they exist. The Republicans and the Democrats say that the Radicals and the Abolitionists, and all the other als and ists, if any there be, are all the same nnder a variety of names, whilst others averthat the only shade of difference between the Republicans and the Democrats is, which shall possess the greatest amount of State patronage and public emolument, to be divided and distributed and dispensed amongst.the' electors who return their man. We wonder, some say, is it all pure patriotism by which they are actuated. A convention for the elec tion of a Senator was held * few evening* agp, and the convention was nqmerQus. 411 Tas harmony end-gqed feeling; no observer not be ing an eleptof "eould guess in the remotest degree that a difference of opinion prevailed amongst those assembled. Candidate* &avieg been proposed, it beceme manifest that a dif ference did exist, and forthwith a committee was appointed to consider and adjust tbe coarse for: adoption- and report to the General Convention in half an honr.' The five elected wise ones re tired to a* adjoining room and; remained closeted there lor an honr. The meeting outside, “poor devils,” as they were called, became im patient and by applying heavy knocks at the door exhibited symptoms of in- <x eased impatience. No response from with in, some of the youthful constituency, after fatiguing themselves in some degree with manly exercises in gymnasims in the spacious hall, at length lived out, they ascended by means of forma and tables to a glass reveal over tbe -door of the private committee room, and lo 1 the first announcement was : “They are not there—there is not a being in the room.’’ Then the cry be gan, and tbe merriment became uproarious, and loud and playful. One cried out—“They ara goDe to get a drink.” “No,” said another “they are playing at hide and seek.” Another, at the top of stentorian accents, belfowod forth, “they are gone to the Levant in Europe to spend the winter.” ' All these aud many more such ebulli tions having escaped amidst peals of*laughter, a youngster, in shrill accents, at the end of the hail, said that the elected conventionalists “were below outs de the door on the footway,” and then withthe magic of, stage effect, ths dozen or so who had the ferbearance to wait frem eight until ten o’clock,. became suddenly active on heel and toe, and fled with the rapidity of roekets helther-ekelter down the hall, as if each man wonld say: “devil take the hindmost,” and on' arriving at the foot of the stair oase on the flag- way outside the door, there was no committee man nor conventionalist there; all were gone, and thus ended the first step towards the nomination of a candidate for Senatorial honors in ths Sixth Distriot of the oity of New Y'ork. A further meeting was held on Monday evening with simi lar results. Fire in a Cotton Store. On Monday evening a fire was discovered on the first floor of a large storage establishment kept by Messrs. Harrison A Osbrey, in Bridge streel. There was a large amount of property of Various kinds deposited in those stores, amongst whieh was cotton of considerable valne. The damage in cotton alone is estimated at $700,000, whioh will become, in some degree,; reduced by salvage, and the entire amount of property de stroyed by this disastrous fire is estimated in value at considerably more than $1,000,000. Tbe building and property were largely insured in several offices. Strong grounds of suspicion are entertained that the calamity thus referred to was the diabolical aet of an inoendiary, as it appears qnite manifest that the Quartermaster's buildings adjoioing the store were intended to be included in the ruin. There were four destructive fires in the oity daring the week, for so far as it has elapsed. Physic and Surgery. Mrs. C. S. Losier, M. D., delivered a lec ture on Monday evening on the opening of the session of physic and "surgery in the Fe male College of Physicians and Surgeons in this city. The lecture was numerously at tended, principally by the gentler sex, who manifested much interest in the lecturer’s ar guments to demonstrate the usefulness and necessity of female physicians in the treat ment of their own sex. The delicacy of the relations between the sexes, she said, acts as an insurmountable obstacle to the success of male practitioners in "many dangerous cases She explained tbe advantages of the institu tion, and said that it supplied the inmates with that home-feeling which is so essential to re covery. fsuo Courts. The criminal cases referred to by your cor respondent in the last letter, which were set down for hearing on Monday and following days, have been postponed. Lecture on Georgia. The Rev. Mr. Caldwell, of Georgia, deliv-i ered a lecture in the Baptist Church, Madison street, on Monday evening, and in the course of the reverend gentleman’s discourse, he drew; a fearful picture of the state of destitution with which the State of Georgia is threatened, and said that if some means were not project ed and acted upon to avert the impending] calamity, that the great mass of the popula tion, black and white, would be plunged iq direful distress and destitution. New York Colton Market. During the last week, as already roferred to in previous letters, the receipts of cotton were heavy and the Easiness done animated and satisfactory. The quantity received was about 41,500 bales, and the sales being extensive, the rates were for the three grades usually quoted : Uplands, 44, 60, 63. Florida, 44, 61, 64.— Mobile, 45, 61, 64. New Orleans and Texas, 46, 62, 65. These were Saturday’s rates.—' In Monday's sales, we find that the figures vajy, for the quotations supplied to the report ers by the proper authorities were: Uplands, 57, 61, 63; Florida, 51, 62, 64; Mobile, 5: .62, 64; New Orleans and Texas, 52, 62, 63, •with some activity in tbe market, hut sales moreaasily affected; the 1 Sellers berinfc almost disposed to yield, But this, perhaps, is one of tbe feverish symptoms prevalent in all the great mercantile and monetary transactions at this and the other side of the Atlantic. There was a further sale of Governmen’ cotton at auction yesterday, and rather npon a large scale, 8,000 bales having been disposed of. That quantity thrown npon the market hsw had a depressive effect upon the legimate gales in tbe ordinary mercantile course of trade, and every grade of quality suffered a de- pline qf fuljy one cent per pound. Mr. Simeon Draper, United States Coiton Agent, conduct ed the sale. The attendance was very large, owing to tbe scarcity ol Savannah cotton. The auctioneer announced that the cotton would be sold for gold «t 146 half the lot is damaged, and sound bales were classed separately, so that the buyers could easily ascertain the difference. Everybody seemed anxious to buy, and in most rases the buyer would take the lot offered, ranging from 600 to 1000 bales. One lot of Sea Island, 142 bales, sold readily for 116 1-4 in gold. At th© appointed hour the sale commenced in the following order: 71 bales middling fair..■ 380 bales strict middling fair... 574 bales strict low middling.... 150 bales strict good ordinary.. 100 bales strict good ordinary.. 100 bales8‘rictgood ordinary.. 200 bales strict good ordinary.. 199 bales strict good ordinary.. 181 bales ordinary ......44 3-4 40 3 8 ......39 1-2 35 1-2 35 3-8 35 1-4 35 3-8 37 1-4 32 1-2 66 bales pickings »....1*3-4 208 half bales 189 round bales sample cotton...

On Monday Government securities were lower and gold higher by a slender free tion—firm would be the more appropriate phrase. The Bulls and Bears were active, but in general neither caught much by their motions. In the legitimate course of mercantile and com., mercial transactions money can be bad freely on approved paper from brokers at about 7 per cent Tbe price of Gold on Monday closed at 145 l-2a 145 5-8, showing a slight pulsation to a higher move, which wurealised yesterday at the open ing of the boat^Pv an advanoe of 1-3 to 3-4, the rates touching 146 1-4, and farther on to 146 1*2. This morning the value remains at much about tbe same standard, with a trifling fluctuation of no material interest. In the Stock and Share market securities were something depressed and a shade lower. Cicebone. News Items. Wm. T.

The General Convention ot tbe Episcopal Cburcb reassembled this morning. This is tbe tenth day of tbe seas on. The Rev. Dr. Wharton offered the following : Whereas It has pleased Almighty God to re store to our beloved communion its old relations of brotherly afleetion and ecclesiastical duty, and this to enable us to join in tbe great work of preaching the gospel of Christ, in a Church not only Apostolic, but one in heart and in organiza tion throughout thu whole land ; and Whereas, lt is fitting that we should set apart a specific and distinct occasion for ibis distmot ana surpassing mercy ; therefore Resolved, That as it House we respond most i;ratetallv to tbe invitation ot the House of Bishops to meet tor the purpose of such thanks giving to-morrow, and will join devoutly in its services.

The Committee ou Canons reported an amend ment, for thu purpose ot removing, the am biguity of the cauons iu reference to tbe dismis sion of clergymen from their parishes with out the consent of the ecclesiastical authority.
