All anonymous communications

rused, and at a proper time responded to,
Dele sates on
The Fenians.
We have learned that a circle of
this mysterious body has just been formed
at Augusta, and since they are coming so
close to us, and beginning to spread
through the neighboring States, let us
have a word about them ourselves
There are few * of us, either Southerners
"or Yankees, who would not wish to see
the movement successful, but it is only
natural w.e should believe, as none of us
outside the confraternity can be aware of
what are its elements of success, that the
odds against the Fenians are too great to
admit of much hope of success. Where
are they to get arms? how are they to get
to Ireland ? how are they to bring arms
there ? are questions, and stumbling ones
to. those who are Fenians at heart; but it
should be remembered that the very fact
of the public as well as the Fenians at
heart, being utterly ignorant of the pro
posed method for working out their de
signs, is evidence pretty conclusive of
good sense and prudence on the part of
enrolles. Is it to be snpposed for one mo
ment that a body so organized and hav
ing such objects in view, are to allow the
world to see clearly into the pritf ate work
ings of their machinery ? Certainly not.
Neither is it to be supposed that because
that machine is not open to public gaze,
it follows as a natural consequence that
it does not exist. Nothing in the world
would tend so much to show the utter
hopelessness of the cause of Feniamsm,
more than an outward expose of their
plans. They have got a powerful and a
cruel enemy to contend against, but they
ate themselves unquestionably a powerful
body, and though the chances may be
and probably are against them, still, in
view of past remembrances and present
wrongs* though the chances were five
to one against them, worthy only of
contempt would be the Irishman who
would rofuse to play at the game. It is
worth the risk. We do not believe, how*,
ever, that ardent patriotism has been the
mother of Fenianism. To a certain ex
tent it may be, but still we should rather
feel enclincd to believe, and our numer
ous Irish friends in Savannah will par
don ns for expressing the opinierffc here,
that it is rather the offspring of that
spirit of revenge which, among his other
bad and good qualities, is one of the prin
cipal characteristics of the Celt. It is
that same spirit which in former tiroes
has sent across the seas to continental
cities, here in the United States and in
Australia, in the back woods and in the
bush, gangs of Irishmen in quest 1 of the
informer’s blood, hunting patiently
through the world and frequently, after the
lapse of many years, discovering him at
last to give him a dog’s death;- and when
their mission would be accomplished
they returned to their old home with the
pure consiences of men who had per-
froined a sacred duty. These facts can
not be denied, and although such con
duct may seem to many as deeply repre
hensible, it still discloses one good quali
ty at least—horror of the informer. All
who know anything of the Irish charac
ter are fully aware of their clannish dis
positions, and that the wrongs of one
family to another are remembered from
generation to generation—hence party
strife and broken skulls at fairs and mar
kets. Still, generally speaking, those who
deal with the Irish at home in a spirit of
fair play, and act with common justice
and honesty, will ever experience the
friendship and kindness of warm hearts,
and those who act otherwise will as
suredly meet with watchful and vindic
tive enemies. This same vindictive spirit
which in certain cases, instead of a vice,
becomes a virtue, is a feeling unques
tionably far more likely to lead to suc
cess than the more poetic sentiment bf
patriotism. We would unquestionably
like to see started here among our Irish
friends in Savannah a branch Of the
Fenian Brotherhood. We like the “real
genuine stuff,” for we are pretty tired
of those “Fenians at heart.”

X wonder, said a traveller through the woods
B his way to Savannah from MiUedgeviUe, if
Mr. Sherman had to come through this wood
all day and all night in such wet weather as
this, perched in «m old hack, with wdl worn
out springs, along a fearfully rough road, and
without getting any sleep for three nights, a.
weU as being from twelve to twenty hours with
out anything to eat, would regret having
destroyed the railway? The answer to. the
question of the inquisitive individual did not
come from any of his feUow travellers, although
some of them might have wished the gentle
man alluded to conld have an opportunity of
answering it himself. What comforts our del
egates mast have enjoyed on their trip to and
from the capital, which is but little over one
hundred miles from Savannah, and it takes but
four days and a half to reach it. Between six
ty and seventy miles of the trip have to be run
in miserable old hacks through the woods along
road that baffles description, aDd not onfre-
quently the passengers are requested to leave
the hacks in order to wade across all creeks
deeper than about two and a half feet, in
consequence of the difficulty of drag
ging a vehicle across a ditch of more than
that depth with a load on. Sometimes a fat
lady becomes quite terrified, and screams at
the very idea of having to walk across the
water, and then some philanthropic, heroic
young gentleman undertakes the difficult task
of carrying the timid creature across, but finds,
when it is too late, that if “the spirit is willing
the flesh is weak,” and down both go. How
ever, a few such incidents over, and the vehi
cie is in motion again, and is fast beginning to
get along pretty well, and the travelers are
congratulating themselves upon having crossed
the creeks without any accident, when sudden
ly the hack gets jammed between two trees
and remains there an hour or two. At length
it is extricated, and off they go again. Surely
nothing else can happen after that.
Yes; one of the mules has got to drop dead,
or at least get sick, which causes another delay
of not less than an hour, while all on board the
hacks are well soaked with rafn and famishing
with cold and hunger. At length the break
fast or dinner house is reached. A cup of cof
fee, with no milk, and two or three bites out of
the leg of an old worn out game-cock, prob
ably the “hero of a hundred fights,” are swal
lowed when the consoling accents of the driver
are beard : “ Hurry up, gentlemen; all aboard;
we will be late for the train.” AH obey the
order, and the hacks go oft' again. Sleep
seems to overcome some of the travelers, and
then comes the danger of having one’s brains
knocked out against the side or front of the
hack by the jolting, if it can be called joltiDg.
At length the long wished for station is reach
ed, and the station master enquires in an angry
tone what was the cause of the hacks being so
much behind time. On being informed of the
night train being behind time, as also of the
many mishaps on the way, he pulls out bis
watch, and, in the coolest manner possible, in
forms the pilgrims, “Gentlemen, the train .is
past twenty minutes left.” So that had we
been here twenty minutes sooner we would be
in time? “Yes.” What is to bo-done now?
“You must wait until this time to-morrow.”
Is there a hotel here ? “ Hotel ? ha! ha!
hotels are seldom found in the middle of a
wood.” Can we get anything to eat? “I
don't think you can ; but you had better try if
Captain can give you anything.” Is
there no place to sleep ? “ Certainly, there is
a fire over there, and the ground is dry.

NIGHT at St. Andrew’s Hall.
TO
Dramatic.
The Brigands tyas magnificently pro
duced last night—the scene effects sur
passing all previous attempts of the man
agement. It was superbly mounted, char
acters well cast, music appropriate and
well rendered, while the choruses pass
off quite smoothly. The performance was
marred somewhat by the boisterous eon
duct of unruly boys in the galleries dur
ing some of the most pathetic scenes.
Mr. Bolm was not quite so steady in his
part as we expected he would be. Go to

ment.

worth of this publication is too well
known to the literary portion of our
community! and too long and well estab
lished to require coAmendation from us,
The leading article in the October num
ber, or that which is most likely to claim
the attention of Southern readers, is en.
titled “Memoirs of the Confederate War
for independence,” and is from the pen of
Heros Yon Borcke, Chief of Staff to
General J. E. B. Stuart. The paper is
well written and in a simple, easy style,
that rendersit the more attractive. To
say nothing of the war which has lec
the author into some mistakes, we
found it readable and interesting. All
the other articles are fully up to the high
standard of merit without which they
could not have TouncFplaee in the pages
of Blackwood.
IIaiupeb’s Monthly.—This truly Amer
ican Magazine, contains its usual amount
of interesting matter. When everything
is so universally good, we .can afford to
submit its claims upon, an appreciative,
reading public,, withoutmaking reference
to any particular article or number. No
Magazine, at home or abroad, has such
a special adaptation to the wants of the
people from the highest to the lowest—
none so completely permeates all cla.ses
of society, or is held in such fitness os a
companion of the home fireside. The
present number for November closes the
thirty-first volume. For-every club of
four subscribers, at four dollars bach, an
extra copy will be supplied gratis.
Godey’s Lady’s ^ook.—We cannot
commend this too highly to the attention
of the ladies. They know and appreciate
its value. Its fashion-plates are of the
best, and its contents always character
ized by that chaste purity which should
insure it a faVbrable reception wherever
good taste and refined sentiment are held
in proper regard.
The Hortiouwubist—Established in
1846, should be in the hands of every

We hear, through a semi-official source*
last evening, that trouble was brewing on the
Canada border, arising from the desertion of
British soldiers. Our informant stated that a
lieutenant in her majesty’s army crossed with
a company of marines from Canada into Maine,
for the purpose of arresting several deserters.
Upon their arrival on “netttral soil” the ma
rines would not acknowledge the authority of
their commanding officer, declaring themselves
free, and refused to return with him. Appli
cation was made to the United State* authori
ties to bavo the me* given up, which was re
fused; and it was reported that there was dan
ger of an outbreak. The authorities at Wash
ington were advised, and Hancock's corps were
ordered to rendezvous in Maine. This is sub
stantially the statement made to us. That
there is a movement of troops is certain. The
company attached to Hancock’s corps, station
ed in this city, received orders yesterday to re
port at Augusta, Me., and seventy two men,
all of the company who were able to start,
left here on the mail train last night.

Apprehensions of the Canadian Press.
[From the Toronto Freeman, Nov. 9.]
We confess to more apprehension of distur
bance from the government of the United States
than from the Fenians. There may be some
trouble from that quarter, and should it arise the
Fenians, as a matter of course, and very natur
ally, would be utilized. The claims which have
been made from Washington upon the imperial
government for compensation for the losses in
flicted upon American commerce by the Alabama,
during the progress of the late war, may lead to
difficulty. It is to be hoped the matter will be
amicably adjusted. Should it unfortunately hap
pen that serious complications will arise, and
that they must be referred to the arbitrament of
the sword, then indeed we may .have sufficient
cause for apprehension. The time that would be
chosen to send over the frontier an army of occu
pation would be when we are least guarded or
prepared, when tbe means of procuring from
England reinforcements and supplies would be
cut off with our ice-bound channels of communi
cation. It will Ihen be left for to to make the
best terms ire can and surrrnider at discretion. It
were wieer and more prudent tor us to look to
such a contingency' than be occupying our
thoughts with the bugbear of a Fenian invasion.

Geld was firm. The" market opened at 147%
advanced to 147)^, and afterwards remained and
closed steady at that price. _ v
Foreign exchange was dull, an<j without any
change in rates. Leading drawers asked 108%.
The faet of the exports being nearly equal to
(ha imports in value just now encourages the be
lief among merchants that a farther decline in
the rate of exehasge must take plsde; but it must
be considered.tbat it is already low. The exports,
exclusive of specie, from tbis port for the week
ending on the 13th inst. were valued at $6,415,-
566 in currency, and the import* at $6,174,655 in
gold. The steamer Java took outt o-day $560,000
in gold bars, and the Persia is reported to have
brought $40,220 in specie, and the Liberty from
Havana $6,150.

of which were very limited.

firm, with sales ol 800 bbls. at $11 a $14 for plain
mess, and $14 a $17 for extra mess. Beef hams
were quiet, but prices were rather more steady.
We note further sales of 150 bbls. Western, to
arrive, at $40 50 a $41. Bacon was inactive, and
holders generally being anxious to realize, were
offering more liberally, and as a consequence
prices were somewhat weaker, though not noti
ceably lower. Cut meats were m better supply,
and sales were made of 220 packages at loj^c.
a 16Xc.*for shoulders, and 19c. a 22c. for hams,
