By the arrival of the Constitution yester day, from New York, wo received our files to the 27th The foliowing is a summary of the news . The most impoitant topic of the foreign news received in New Y’ork on the 27th, is the “Fenian scare.” The British authorities are taking energetic measures against the Fenians. A large number of prisoners have been arrested in various parts of the Island. The fate of the Fenian organization in Ire- I land will evidently be soon decided, one way or the. other. The cholera still continues to rage ia Constantinople. Up to the date of the latest intelligence from the Turkish capital the number of deaths then from cholera was fifty to eighty thousand. There is no doubt ttaiit the pestilence was working its way eastward, as reports from nearly all the .Mediterranean towns represent the disease as increasing. The captain of the immigrant, ship Vil lafranee, whose villainous abuse of his pas sangers has been made public in an examina tion before the U. S. Commissioner has been fully committed for trial, and it is to be hoped that some check will be put to out rages cu immigrants by the wholesome example which will probably be made ot this brutal cantain. The trial of engines between the Winooski and the Algouquiu has been suspended with out any satisfactory results having been ob tained. The Winooski had inn tier engine the uinety-six hours, but had failed to make the prescribed number of tu r .ns. The Algon quin broke down at so early stage of the trial, but was then ah' , ;M \ n f i, Pr competitor, as her builder clau»’ ig Au important htbor movement is taking place in New \-yrk.

A most important decision in regard to jmnlnns, has been promulgated. The Attor ney General has decided not to consider ap plications for pardon- in 4bc future from in dividuals who have domiciled outside of the territorial limits of the United States. Such persons must first return aud submit them selves iu good faith to the actiou ot the Gov ernment. The practical working of the rule will probably be to forever expatriate many prominent refugees. The new Brazilian Minister was present ed to the President on the 23d. Au address was offered, to which the latter responded, invoking perpetual peace and amity between the two nations. Tlte most important item of intelligence from Central America is that the Government of Salvador had tried ex-President Barrios liy court-martial, and that iu accordance with the sentence passed by this court he had been shot on the 2s»th of August. The ease for the prosecution was In formally closed in the Witz trial on the 23d. The prisoner's counsel wished a week's time to prepare his defense, on account of ill health and other reasons, but was only yranted until to-morrow, until which time ltic Court adjourned FEOW.F.t for tiae Convention.

Washington .’latter*. A large number of New York politicians of various stripes are in Washington on sup posed intrigues for the inside track at the White House. Among those now present in the city are Thurlo-.v Weed, Dean Rich mond, ex Judge Pier/epont, General Cochrane, General Van Wyck aud Mr. Maible. It is reported that General Ortega, who will be the constitutional successor of Presi dent Juarez in a few months, nas succeeded in effecting a very large loan for the Re publican Government in Mexico, based on the security of the confiscated property. The Executive Mansion was closed to visitors ou Tuesday, and the President had a quiet day. Among the very few persons granted an audience, were a delegation from Louisiana, who arc looking after the recon struction of that Slate. The Cabinet meet ing was ra'lier brief.

I am informed by various friends that some parties are making certain charges against roe with a view to my’ defeat, and as I can not approach yon all individually’ to explain or refute these ch urge s, I address you through this channel. 1 have heard Messrs. \\ aring and Philip M. Russell are electioneer ing against me on two distinct grounds, one political and one personal; and as the state ments they are making are not correct, 1 must set myself right before you, however unpleasant it may be to have to refer to my self in a public gazette. They say’, first, that I prosecuted Mr. War ing Russell in January’ 1864. for bribery. I did not prosecute him, us the following facts will show. At the election in October 1853, for members of the Legislature, a large sum of money was used in buying votes. This was so notorious that Judge Gibson and I thought of contesting the election. We got the names of many persons who, it was said, had sold their votes. We could not hear of enough to oveioome the majority against us. aud we desisted. When the Grand Jury met. in January 1864, they appointed a commit tee to find out if any evidence of bribery at that eleetion could be obtained. One of the committee went lo Judge Gibson and myself, knowing we had been investigating the matter, and lie thus got the names we had obtained. Those parties were summoned before the Grand-Jury, and on their testimony the Graud Jury presented Mr. Waring Rus sell for bribery. I did not furnish the Jury with Mr. Russell’s name—nor did I appear against hito before either the Grand or the Petit Jury. The Grand Jury acted on their own motion and not on mine. Whether I did or did not prosecute Mr. R however, is a matter of no interest whatever to the public, nor does it in mv opinion disqualify me for the Convention. Tim next charge they make on me is, that I wrote a truckling, dough-faced article for the Savannah Republican, on the day that Gen. Sherman entered the city. Here is the article as written by roe after conference with several gentleman of this city’, with the exception of the two words “magnanimous foe” which Mr. C. E. O’Sul livan inserted in the place of some other word I had written, which he thought not mild enough for the occasion. Read it and see to what straits my accusers arc driven to get something like a shadow of objection to me. “By tho fortunes of war wo to-day pass under the authority of the Federal military forces. The evacuatiou of Savauuau by the Cuatederate army, which took place last night, left the gates to the city open, and General Sherman, with his army, will no doubt to-day take possession. The Mayor and Common Council leave under flag of tiueo iliis morning for the headquarters of Gen. Sherman to offer the surrender of the city anti ask terms of capitu lation by which private property and citizens may be respected. \Ve desire to counsel obedience and all proper respect ou the part of our citizens, ami to express the belie! that their property and persons will be respected by our milita ry ruler. The fear expressed by many that General Sherman will repeat the order ol expulsion from our koines, which ho enforced against the citizens of Atlanta, we think to be without foundation. He assigned his reason in that case as a military necessity. It was a question of food. He could not supply his urrny and the citizens with food, and lie stated that he must have full and sole occupation. But in our case, food can be abundantly supplied for both army and citizens. We would not be understand as even intimating that we are u> he fed at the Cost of the Federal Government, but that food can be easily obtained, in nil probabili ty, by all who can afford to pay in the Federal currency. It behooves all to keep within their houses until General Sherman will have or ganized a provost system aud such police ns will insure safety to persons as well as property. Let o'ur conduct be such as to win the ad miration of a maguuuimous ibe, and give no ground for complaint or harsti treat ment on the part of him who will for an indefinite period hold possession of our city. In our city there arc, as in otiier commu- ! nities, a large proportion of poor and needy j families, Who, iu the present situation of af fairs, brought about by the privation* of wsr, will be thrown upon the bounty of their more fortunate neighbors. Deal with them kindly, exercise your philanthropy and benevolence, and let the hearth of the unfortunate not be deserted by your friend ly aid." This charge, you see, by reading the arti cle amounts to absolutely nothing. And as for the future, I cannot follow up my ac cusers to find out ami refute cycry charge they may bring against me, I beg you will remember how little ground they had lor making the two above named, and rc j gartl them no more than the idle wind.
