The London papers denounce the doings of the Shenandoah in the Arctic among the whalers ns piracy* Considerable excitement continues in Eng land relative to the Fenians, and prompt measures for their repression are to be taken by the British goverfcmeat. The London Daily News, in an 'editorial on the subject, says : ‘•The Fenian movement is confined chiefly to laborers, idlers and tvaCilercra of low de gree. The intelligence of the country, and above ull tbs Catholic clergy, is ou the side of order. It will soon appear what the gov ernment means to do. It is clear there hno time to be lost. There will be no question on either side of the Irish Channel of put ting down this movement. Asa work of mercy it must be done. There must be prompt, careful and complete prevention and repression of the rebellion, whether weak or formidable. It would ire a great merev to Ireland if every fieuian leader were tit nin e put on. trial.” The channel'fleet lias left" Portsmouth for tbe Irish Coast, but Feniauism had notbiDg to do with its movement The London Globe says that there is not a shadow of reason for calling Parliament to gether before the usual time. The St. Leger race was won by the French horse Glndiatenr. Regalia was second, and Archimedes third. Fourteen horses ran. Gladiateur won by three lengths. After the race applications was made to the Stewards of the Jockey Club to have the wiuner examined as to his age. They refused, and the subject is finally disposed of. FRANCO. The Moniteur says that the great powers have removed all difficulties relating to the Treaty for the navigation of the Danube.— The tteaty will be sigued shrtly. There was a great disturbance at the seance of the Davenport Brothers m Paris., The brothers were loudly hissed. The polit e cleared the room and returned the entrance money. One o't the spectators discovered their secret. Gen. Lamoriciero is dead. The meeting between the Emperor Napo leon amt the Queen of Spain, at San Sebas tian, was mutt cordial, aud the return visit paid by the Queen aud King of Spain to the Emperor and Empress of the Frencli at Bi arritz, was equally as cordial, and the recep tion as enthusiastic as the interview at San Sebastian. AUSTRIA AND PRUSSIA. A ministerial journal oi Beilin says that payment of indemnity to Austria for the Duchy of Lauenburg will be made tor the preseut from the King of Prussias privy purse, and that the occupation of Lauenburg wilt take place without delay. The lufther settlement of its position towards the Prus sian crown is postponed. Berlin correspondence says that the Prus sian stipulations of February remain in full force. On the one hand, the establishment of another government is no longer thought of. On the other hand, Austria, in addition totbecission of Lauenburg, lias yielded to the most material demands made by Prussia. The Gastien Convention, in maintaining the present amicable relation between the two Powers, took an important step toward the fulfilment of the hopes and demands of Prussia. \r~. O JTABY.

THE mu* AGITATION—PRECAUTIONARY MEA GURUS. ( ', t On invitation of Lord Fenuoy, the Lord Lieutenant of County Cork, a" meeting of more than IMJ magistrates look place recent ly In Cork, to consider the-securlty of ffie public peace, as menaced by Fenian move ment*. The proceedings were privtle, but the Cork Examiner says they resulted in the unsniiuons adoption of a memorial to tbo government, praying for an immediate in crease 1n the police and military force of the county. The existence of secret organiza tions, dangerous to the public peace, was generally admitted, and it was supposed that the adoption of the proposed steps would be atuficicnl to maintain public order. SEIZURE or SUfKCfEf PERSONS . 0 1 On Friday oVeß*rfg*rih* litb, in Dublin. iaJ large force of police proceeded from the Castle to Parliament street, where they dil Tided Into two bodies, oftc at either end of the street. Some detectives then knocked at the door of the paper called the Irish People, an alleged Feuian organ, but were refused admittance. The police then broke open tbs door, tßrlv possession of the premises, aAd secured twelve or fourteen prisoners, sahl not to be compositors, and conveyed them to the Castle. The police then returned the possession of the premises. There is no in formation as to the cause of the seizure but there are rumors., f concealed arm3 and’doc uments, with the names of the leaders, but the reports are not generally credited The government was supposed to be acting on information. The police kept the streets ciear, and there was no disturbance. The Iri9h People is a weekly journal, and was about to be published that evening. The Dublin Express, of the I6ib, says afler tbe arrests at the Irish People office last night, orders were issued to all police sta tions and military 7 barracks for men to be held ready in case of an attempt to lesoue by the populace. A police constable was also stationed in each telegraph office, for the purpose of Hopping any messages relat ing to Fenianism. CONTINUED AND NUMEROUS ARRESTS. A Queenstown dispatch of the 1 7th says : The Irish police continue to arrest Fenians. The number of prisoners is very large, among others n person said to be a captain in the American army in whose possession documents, and a uniform weie found. On Saturday afternoon, the prisoners, escorted by mounted police, were taken to the polio# Court to undergo examination. The result has not transpired. Tne mob hearti ly cheered the prisoners, but made no at tempt to rescue. A privy council is said to be sitting to de termine what course the authorities should take in the prosecution aud sentence of the Arrested parties. Excitement prevails in Dublin, and arrests are being made in other parts of Ireland. THE FLEET OFF THE IRISH COAST. The Sklbbereen Eagle of the 15th an nounces that a British fleet is off Cape Clear, and some hovering around the coast, to the great consternation, at first, of the Co**, population, but the people were satis fied on bearing they were the Queen's ships. The Eagle says now that help is at hand, in the event of a Fenian invasion, tho.e in clined to sympathize with rebels are rather disheartened. THE MOVEMENT IN AMERICA. The Times' American correspondent represents that the Fenians in America were collecting large funds, sending money to Ireland, and spending money in America in purchasing arms. HlsreUanevas. THE ATLANTIC TKLKORAFII COMrANV. An extraordinary general meetiug of the Atlantic Telegraph Company was held in London on tbe 14th. The directors present ed a report settiug forth the results of the late effort, 'and sanguine expectations for the future deduced therefrom, expressing a de termination to press forward with the work, and announcing that they had already en tered iuto a contract for renewed operations. Lender this contract the Telegraph Construc tion Company undertake, for the sum of £500,000 sterling, (that is the mere cost price,) to manufacture and lay down anew cable next year ; and if successful, but not otherwise, they are to have in shares and cash nod profit of twenty percent, on this cost. They also undertake, without any further charge whatever, to go to sea with sufficient cable to complete the present broken cable, anu use the best endeavors to that end. Carrying out this contract requires that the Atlantic Company should raise a minimum of £250,000 to a maximum of £500,000 sterling in cash, upon which new capital a preferential dividend Os twelve per cent, is proposed, with a share in the profits of the dividends to which they are entitled, have been paid on old shares. The report was unanimously adopted, the question of rni«inj£ capital being lett to the final decision of another mealing called for the 12th of October TORPEDOES FOR THE ENGLISH CHANNEL. It is stated that Donnld McKay, the well known American shipbuilder, is in dose communication with the Admirality on the subject of, toipedoes, which are to belaid down >n the chaoneis to the English harbors in the case of war. AMERICAN AFFAIRS. Tbe New York correspondent of the Lon don Times enlarges upon the fact that the South Is most anxious for reconciliation wit h the North, and quotes sundry Southern journals in support of a loyal and friendly feeling, which was being evinced for the Union. At the second quarterly meeting of the Committee of the British Frecdnun’s Aid Association, held at Bristol, C. C. Leigh, of New York, Rev. Dr. Storrs, of Cincinnati, and Rev. Sella Martin, of tbe American Mia sione’-y Association, attended as a deputation from America. Mr. Henly, in addressing his constit uents at Oxfordshire, paid a high tribute <o the qualities manifested by both North and South in the late war. and contrasted their character most favorably with ttiat of Aus tria and Prussia iu the affair of the Duchies. FBANCE—RFPOBTKDTIOTTO ASSASSINATE THE EMPEROR The correspondent of the Loudon Times at Biaritz, mentions the discovery of a re ported plot against tbe Emperor, either on the way to S in Sebastian or on the return to Bayonne. The parties concerned in it were .aliens, including a brother or cousin of Orsini’2. Precautionary measures were taken, end the Queen of Spain insisted on accompanying tlie Emperor and Empress to the Railroad station, notwithstanding it was night, in order that she might share any risk run by her guests. TUB CHOLERA AT MARSEILLES. Tho cholera has increased so much at Mar seilles that the Mayor has summoned a meet ing of the physicians to concert measures of relief.

The negroes wounded are recovering. The lightniog struck one of the negroes, who was killed, on the back of the neck, thence pacing over, ids shoulder and under his arm, completely skinning bis back and legs. One of the Ireaks of the lightniog was that it killed an old hen under tbe cabin, but left unharmed tlie brood of chickens under her Cpfumhis Sun. A Mar Killed in Silver Run —On Mon day afternoon, while the train for Union Springs was stopplog at Silver Run, a diffi culty about some matter occurred between two young men, Ed. Moore, of Guerryton, nod Jeptba Harris, of Girard. Moore struck Harris twice, when the latter stabbed Moore in the abdomen with a knife. Moore lived souse fori- Tioura. Harris had come from QJrnnL and after life dijPfulty, went off no tbe train. As yet, we hav3 not heard of his I being apprehended.

'Twas summer's eve—the rosy lighi Hail faileil from the ski, Aud stars tame taint;lmp, pure anil ight. Through the nlue arch ou high ; Tile Western breezes softly stole, To kiss the sleeping flower, Aud uaiure wore her sweetest smile, To bless the twilight nour. There sat witliln a curtained rrom. A mother young anu tali— What voice com -.-, softly through tne gloom 'Tls childhood's voice In prayer A cherub boy Is kneeling now’ Beside that mother's knee— She who had taught him when to bow Before the Deity. A father ou tlte distant deep, A sister sluiuh’rlug near, A babe upon tits mother's breast And that kind mother dear ; For every IlHug thing he loves. His prayer ascceds to Heaven And for himself he hurnblv asks. Each sin may lie forgiven. And oft iu alter years, when grief Shall bow his spirits down, An and the world, the cold and bitter world Shall meet him with an ow n ; Or when allured from virtue’s path He treads a daug’rous wav, Oil! he wilt turn to this blest hour When Hret he knelt to pray. And the kind hand which then was laid Upon his silken hair ; And the sort voice which taught him first His simple words of prayer. Will come again with thrilling power To sdlt his pulses wild, And lure him back in that dark hour, As smless as # child. The prayer la o’er, the last fond kiss By that kind mother given ; But rises not from scene like this That rtitldlsh prayer to Heaven? ft does, it does, an angel’s wing Has borne its tone with Joy, And th' earnest blessing which It sought Combs ba the steeping boy. French Father,-French Mothers—and French Children. 8Y EDMOND ABOUT. Now-a-days a good father works, even though he be rich, to secure his children po sition. He loog3 to make a dowry tor his daughter ; he plunges into politics, and per forms Hercultss twelve labors to gel a good S'uecure lor his sou. It is to be marked tlmt : the fathers of our day do not reckon a greut • deal on the activity of their sons. Michael I Leteliier reckoned on his sou's activity ; he 1 made him work like a yeoman—so the sou became Louvois. Colbert did not spoil the Marqui-de Seiguelay, who became under . his eyes an excellent minister. At present ! tlie ideal of provident fathers is a quiet, well j paid place, a sub-treasurer’s or deputy sub ! treasurer's place. This does not require a | great effort of education. Ail that is neces sary is that his sop should enjoy good health, j aud reach his twenty-first year iv knout eni ! barrassraent. The father struggles, strives, | intrigues, pushes, runs after favor, reaches : it, retains it, and returns occasionally home jto see how his son is getting on. I know I | am exaggerating; hut if you have a disease j in the blood, 1 will not show it to your naked j eye; I will take the microscope. It is through a microscope, you may say, that I have secu the earliest education of young Parisians abandoned to the servants.' I need not tell you that tlie race of servants is greatly’ modi fied in Paris. Where are those old servants , of the good old time who belonged so part and parcel oi the family ? We might have confided a son or even a daughter without | fear to them. ] They loved 1 their yoitng masters; they , surrounded those ingenuous eyes and those j virgin ears with llie tendercst respect and ! the most jealous care. Children in turn felt something like affection for those old 1 pieces ot furniture of the paternal mansion ; who were so faithful,and intelligent. They ' looked upon them as poor kin who felt neiih ;er jealousy nor~bitterness. These old ser j vauts have not disappeared from France ; ! they have moved, that's a'l, and now they ) live in the provinces. But at Paris neither : masLers nor servants have the time nor the j desire to know each other. They live un der tj;e same root, they quit, they give each I other reciprocally eight days notice from j one year s end to the other. Some masters | dismiss all their servants every summer to ,go to the country. There is scarcely a ser • vant who is not iu quest of a better place, I mean a place which is more lucrative in j wages and profit?. The order of the day is j lor many of those wretches to levy black ' mail on the tradesmen, toswindle at'market, to make money every possible way. to stake their savings on change, wait for the capital prize of some lottery or of the Emperor Maxi millian's loan-fortlietr hearts to be filled with eopidity-forthemtobe cynical of speech; for money in all their talk to lie everything for the best place to he given to the man who gives them the largest vails and the most valuable presents. lam not so insane as to be scan | dalized by this. They are what fate and cd ; ucation has made them. But that a father I should abandon bis daughteis and sons to I these preceptors in livery is a tliiug I cannot I bear with so much patience. Great stress is i laid that young ladies should attain their I marriage morally blindfolded. The ancients j thought differently, never mind that. I ac cept our French and Christian manners, and ; I admit that angelic ignorance is perfection ; itself. But then, O pretty, sprightly, and in teresting mothers, walk your daughters your j selves, and don’t send them to the Garden of ! the Tuiiteries under the cate of a nurse who , goes there to meet her svveetheait. I know perfectly well that sometime afterwards , w T hen your daughter is twelveycars old, you will send her to the convent. I ngrec the convent will teach litr nothing ; but do you think it will make her forget what she has seen and heard ? I touch, Ido not press this poiDt. It is useless to give statistics of nurses •qd governesses who give rendezvous in the chamber of a well-fvatched child. Os this be sure, that there are very few infantine Im ' aginations which have not been more or less \ tarnished by the remarks or actions of your servants. The great precautions of the con vent come too late ; it is locking up the wolf In the sheep’s fold. I wonder at those mothers who refuse to catty their daughters to the gymnase, when the latter have been to the Case des Avengles with their nurse. A young lady whose family is more than I millionaire has told me that she danced for money in the Garden of tlie TnlHerfea ; her nurse's produced her in public and pocketed the sous. It is in the -company of servants that future feminine spendthrifts learns the stupidest vanity of our epoch—the vanity of money. Servants teach them that a rich man is better every way than a poor man, that the best things are those which cost most money ; that nothing is so honorable as to spend a good deal of money. Girls now-a-days still have doll-babies, but it is not to play with them. It is to show them off, to rejoice in their possession before other girls, to say wbat they cost, to humil iate every girl who has not so handsome aud so dear a dol'. Bring two little girls to gether each having in its arras a patent doll; the doll which cost 40f. will humiliate the doll which cost 80f. ; in the first place be cause it has articulated arms, but above ail because it ci>.i I6f. abr* than the other. A little girl elegantly dressed, eved from top to toe a little girl who was jumping, clad in a linen blouse, but the latter soon took her re venge by asking : “Hasyour father horses?’ “No.’’ “Mine has four horses in bis stable, ‘i No reply can be made to this; the little girl in a blouse must take a precedence of the other. Interrogate all the servants and rich children in Paris 1 Two little girls were talking together a bout tbe boys they knew. One or them said : ‘1 have four sweet hearts.” “Which ono will you marry ? for you know, yoq esn poly marry oni.” "One at a Hme, yes, I kfirtw that. •'Td tell, the * **»* deal embarrassed. Julea wM be very rich; he kill have horses; but Edward to (an -American; he will return home and it to very lasbionabie | for a woman to travel. Paul ha? one dc ' feet, he squints, but he will be a baron, so I shall marry him and lie a boroness. "You ; have mentioned only three; you said there I were four?" "Oli, Piospcr: (she blushed) he is very hand time, he is the handsomest ] young man I ever saw in my lire ; but un . fortunately he is not a noble, he is not an ! American, and bis father is ruined. So I shall not marry him, but I will love him none ' the less." Six years later you may hear the ; same young girl murmur this praver at tlie altar of some fashionable convent: “Holy Virgin ! So be 4 be rich, noble, and let me do what I please, I will ask nothing more of Thee!" Among the corrupters of youug girls must be included the friends of tbe family. Formerly as we gave trifles to the children of our triends to please them, now we give them to show ourselves tick and generous. I still see my old schoolfellow Ede V , all marquis as be is, running about the Boulevard ou the 3lst of Decem ber with a great basket which he filled at the little booths. I especially see the delight of the little girl he dazzled the next day as he drew forth two hundred toys, each different from the other. She stared at them with eyes wide outstretched, she inspired them through her mouth, and she could utter but theft: two words: “What! Another?” The same child five years later could be amused by nothing. Tahan's little boxes, illustrated books aud jewels had satiated her. A little Parisian girl has a casket by the time she is ten years old. The friends of the family amuse themselves covering hei with gold upon every occasion, not ouly upon mar riages, but at her festival day, at her birth day, at Easter, at New Year's Day, &c. No body yet gives girls of this age diamonds, bat mey will soon be given them, yuu may be sure. I seem to decry the present to the advan tage of the past, but I appeal to you, man or woman, if you do not remember the respec ful terror with which in your childhood you looked on a five ITauc piece. Before our day children were still more modest. One of my nodes entered the uavul school of Angoule me with a two-franc piece which his moth er gave him. He kept it for two months in his pocket without daring to break it. Chil dren uow-a-days who have gold and bank notes in their pocket-book will shrug their shoulders. Well, dear children, the school boy who had two francs in his pocket has become a good and true man, and he has at tained au excellent position in life. There are in this life a great many things won by merit, and which caunot bo bought. Your servants never told you that ; it is a pity. It seems to me wc were not misers despite our superstitious respect for money. But we looked on it for a rare and costly article which one ought not to spend wantonly when oee is incapable of earning it ourself. We likewise thought that a child owned nothing, that his ten sous were as much sub ject to his parents’ will as the money they tiad in their purse. Now-a-days a little girl feels no hesitation to say to her mother : “Ah ! you won't give me that dress ? Very well, 1 have a hundred francs. I'll buy it." In eight or ten years tbe same little giii will say probably to her husband : “I do not ask you for that river of diamonds. I buy it; haven’t I my dowry ?" What think you of Ibis picture of Parisian life ? Misiepresentatloii. It will lie remembered, says the Nashville Dispatch of the 22d inst., that about a week ago a highly colored statement of the burn ing of a froedmen's school by ex-Rehcl sol diers, was published in a Nashville paper, and afterwards telegraphed all over the country. It furnished a welcome text to many for intemperate moralizing ou the in herent fiendishness of the “unsubdued Re bels " It is conceded on all hands that out rages occasionally occur in the South—is the North an exception—but conceding all this it is manifestly unjust to charge a laden foe with abuses and outrages of which they are altogether innocent. The following is un doubtedly the true version in connexion with tho burning of the school, aud it is to be hoped that it will receive equal publicity with the other report t- Winchester, TisNN.,Sept. 14, 1855. To the Editors of the Louisville Journal: I write to you to ask the correction of a state ment which appeared a few days ago inyotir paper, and about the same time in the Nash ville papers, and since in the Chicago Trib une and other papers. The statement is sub stantially that “Rebel soldiers, on Wednes day night, burned tlie freedmen’s school at Dechard, Team, Mr. Schultz, the teacher, had to flee for his lite." This is wholly untrue. The whole com munily at Decha’rd, two miles from this place, disapprove the act of burning the school house, and afler investigation by Mr. Schultz stnd Mr. Ogden, an agent of the Freedmen’s Bureau, they relieve the community, includ ing Rebel soldiers from any complicity what ever in the affair. Tlie only conclusion to which 'all have come who know the facts, is, that some bad man—whether white or black is not known—is responsible for the crime, hut ihe people have uo sympathy with the deed and stand ready to do all in their power to discover and punish the perpetrator. Permit me, after making this statement, to say that I have lived in ibis county many years, and, although there was little or no division in the war after it came, yet the people were never more disposed to be law abiding than they are now. \Ve, with one voice, accept tbe new Condition of things.— We made the fight upon slavery, and having lost it, like meu we yield it. Besides, there is no hostility among the intelligent dosses toward fieedmeq. We want them to have justice, and believe their improvement if it can be effected, will boas much to the ad vantage of tin; white race who have to deal with mem as to themselves. Truly, A. S. Colyar. Pkchard, Tenn.—l cordially indorse the above statement, hoping that Chicago pa pers may copy it to prevent further misap prehensions, and so contribute to mutual understanding and harmony for our coun try s welfare.

Information was received at Fort L iramie on Tuesday from Gen. Conuer’s right column, nnoer Colonel Cole, to the 21st instant. It has been encamped near Fort Conner since the 20th. He had lost six hundred horses and two hundred mules, which were frozen to death in oue night. On the Ist instant he was attacked by a war party of Sioux, Cherokees and Arapa boes, on Powder River. They were re pulsed with heavy loss, onr loss being only four killed and two wounded. On the 3d the Indians appeared in force, and were driven ten miles. The next day tre engagement was renewed, and lasted until noon. Tbe Indians were again do seated with slaughter—their loss being ftom three hundred to six hundred killed and wounded. The Indians fled in every direction ; our troops were unable to pursue tliem on account of the poor condition of tbe stock. Oar loss was one killed, and one officer, and two men wounded. The Indians lost a large number of horses. The Indians ogaiu attacked our trv.ops on tbs Btb, and after a abort but spirited en gagement, were totally routed aud “beauti fufiy. cleaned out.".
