Fenian Brotherhood. By every mail arriving, from Europe, news is broo?ht of the increasing nnmbers and defiant im j e 0 f tbe Fenian Brotherhood in Ireland. ■j he drilling and marching still continues to go , n with &H die appearance of a speedy revolu- )n Johnny Bull, judging from what appears ■ ,l, e London Times, and other leading En- | ish journals, is in a very uncomfortable con- dilion from the fact that a large military organi sm is nourishing and gaining daily strength in Ireland, assisted by the members of the same jnvsterious body in New-York and the other Sta!es of this country, for the purpose of kick ing up an Irish row on a large scale. Tre-‘ mentions excitement prevails among the Irish here connected with the Fenian Brotherhood, and also with those not connected with it, in 1 omwquence of this in eiligence by every mail. A enormous gathering assembled last evening a; the Cooper Institute, for the purpose of hear ing a lecture from Lieutenant Colonel Roberts, to the members of the Fenian Brotherhood. The lecturer, who is connected with the Broth erhood, took for his subject “ the American Evolution of 1776,’’ with a view to show the way Johnny Bull can be whipped again after thasame fashion. The large hall was crammed to excess, and large numbers of persons re mained ontside the doors unable to obtain, ad mission. Tickets had been sold during the previous week at 50 cents each, and the num ber of those sold more than double the number fur whom accommodation oould be found in the large hall. Such a scene of enthusiastic. Irishmen was perhaps never before witnessed ,. this city. At the conclusion of the lceture, a vote of thanks was proposed to Col. Roberts by the Head Centre of the Brotherhood, Colonel John 11 Mahoney, and unanimously adopted. The lion. John Hogan, from St. Louis, also_ jiiJns-eJ the assemblage in appropriate re mark*. At the conclusion of hie address the i"'jm!)!age broke up. * .... Fenianbm is the all-absorbing topic of the lay here. British spies, paid by their Govern ment. are constantly u loafing” around the places usually frequented by the officers of the Fenian Brotherhood, and it is feared from the" temper of some of the members, that those spies arc not unlikely to get bullets sent through them even in the open street, their presence is t'j obnoxious to the Celts. “When is the bru tal Saxon to be driven into the say ?” is the question here which the sods of the “emerald gem' are constantly asking each other, and re 1 ;<«eJ by the Yanks who clap Pat on the, back > 5 the hope of soon seeing a big row, which, whether disastrous or successful, seems now near at hand. The City Officials' Trial. The case of Mayor Gunther and the several ntner city officials summoned to appear before F verner Fenton, on charges of corruption re lating contracts for the sweeping Of the streets •f New York, has been going on for the past few hjs at Albany. The question of jurisdiction fully argued hy counsel on both sides, and *u concluded by the decision of tbe Governor to hate fall power in the matter. The hearing of tie toumony was then decided to bo «t the Gov ernor's room in the City Hall, New York, on Tuesday next, at 12 o'clock. P - • The Episcopal. Convention. Ihe [eighty-second convention of the Protest hut Epiecopal Church convened yesterday at St. Chapel, Varrock street. A full lay and -erical delegation was preeent, representing one hundred and ten parishes in the State. The ttui: services prior to the conventional sessions "unnence 1 at 16 o’clock. "’The sermon was 1-ached by the Rev. Dr. A. H. Vinton. He “"ted for his text the wordt j “As the truth is : ''sue,” and his eloquent address created pro- ltd attention throughout. At the conclusion tie sermon a large number of delegates -Itr M ''ed the holy communion, after whioh tbe oon" '" u,lm organized, and the usual standing com- were re-elected. Bishop Potter then jounced that the “provincial system” would be tic order of the day. following resolution in reference to this by Itcv. Ur. McVickar, wag then read: — ren.v. The time has come when, hy rea p'd the increase of the population, and the v ro 'th uf the church in these United States, S( ?rcat number of bishops is now, or is likely be required; And whereas it is desir- that in providing for this increase in the ‘“ D, l)er of bishops with.their dioceses, as little ^ lan xe as possible should ba made in the con- spirit of the church, and especially, '■ “ er Principle of conformity to the civil divi-j °,n, s of ‘be country: Therefore, , , ! </r, ,/.

In every case of the election of a bishop, the consent of the majority of the bishops and standing committees of the province shall be alone required; and id the matter of ascertain ing such consent, and giving order, for Epis copal consecration thereupon, the chief bishop of the province shall do all that the canons now require to be done by the .“presiding bishop.” - ■* ; - V 4. In the erection of new dioceses within the province, the consent of both houses of the provincial council shall suffice, in place of the consent of ihe general convention, as now re quired.

The bishops of the province, acting under such rules and with such assessors as foe pro vincial council may enact, shall he a court of final resort, to hear and decide all appeals from any tribunal of any diocese within the province. . > * 6. Furthermore, it is deemed expedient, whenever there shall be four or more dioceses within the bounds of any one State, that all the bishops, clergy, and laity in- that State shall eonstituteone province. 7. That the bishop of the original see, resi ding in the chief city, shall be the President, afehbishop, or metropolitan of the province, and shall retain fiiS episcopal title from the State, and shall throughout that State, exercise powers analogous to those of the presiding bisfiop, together with such other powers as ex perience may have demonstrated as tending to the well-ordering and well being of the church of Christ. 8. That the exclusive power of making aqd altering such constitutions and canons (subject to those of the General Convention), and of sending to the General Conventiqn clerical and lay delegates, shall be vested in the provincial council. 9. That the work of missions in the rural parts of the State or province, as well as the administration-of the funds of such charities as have for those parts an especial interest; such as the funds for the benefit of aged and infirm elergy, and for the widows and orphans of de ceased clergymen, and for the promotion of re ligion and learning, &c., be managed by boards fqrmed under the authority of the provincial council;'and with a representation from each diocese in the province upon every one of such boards. A report upon this matter, it was announced, would be submitted to the Convention on the following (this) day, after which the Conven tion adjourned. Amusements.

The city during the entire of this day has been exceedingly dull respecting any excite ment of a political character or otherwise.— The coming investigation before Gov. Fenton, into the charges against the Mayor and other city officials with reference to the street clean ing contract, is a subject much talked over in private by politicians and other interested par ties, and it is believed no political movement of any importance will take place regarding the coming election, until after the conclusion of tfiis investigation. Arrest of a Weil Known Thief who Carried on Easiness Wholesale,. This afternoon Charles Jones alias Ghauncey Johnston was arrested on suspicion of having fttolen bank bills from the office of Adams, Express Company, Bro&dwaj, amounting t» $1,600; and also for having stolen $25,000 in United States bonds from the counter of August Belmont ft Co., Wall street. It is said there is very strong avidauce against him in support of those charges. He is a# ojd con vict, and has served two terms ip foe state prison—one tefm beihg {(hr stealing $36,000 from the New York State Bank, and the other for stealing an incredible amount of dry goods from a store in Duane street. He is also suspected of many other extensive robberies, but alfooqgfi fie is generally believed to be the thief, be has (managed hjs business in such a clever manner as fo leave no cine qr a shadow of evidence to convict him in these latter cases. ,--veo«; :ti' Cicebone.

By foe mail to-day it appearrthat the British troops in Ireland are greatly disaffected, and very much prone to Fenian ism. Some ary rests have been made among the milita'y both jn.

There were no new developments in foe crusade against the Fenians. The examination of the prisoners stood fixed for the 23d. James Morphy, one of the men arrested at DtaMin, whe described himself as a citizen of Bos ton and protested against his arrest, had been set a( liberty .“after 1 ,” sajH the Freeman,“an interview between tbe American otjoaui and the authori ties.” It is stated that Morphy is connected wi h the War Department at Washington, but no explanation is given of bis connection with the suppsgtfed frith Jteyjlt. ■ As (he eighty-eighth regiment was on parade in Cork barracks, tbe sergeant-major was called iqto the guard-room and shown a roll-book of members’ names, taken from an arrested Fenian. Tbe sergeant-major admitted that one of the sig- natures was his, and was at once taken into cus tody.

Sheep raising might be an immense source of wealth to this State, were it not for the immense number of worthless curs in every portion of it. Millions of dollars worth of wpol might every year be produced in Qeorgia were there only efficient laws to proteot raisera of this kind of stock. We trust the day will soon arrive when such laws will be passed and strictly enforced. Kill off the thousands of mischievous dogs, and give ns the tens of thousands of sheep. The climate of many sections of our State is well adapted to sheep raising, and the revenue derived therefrom coaid not easily be estimated. It would amount to millions annually.

We see in a. late number of the Romo (Ga.) Courier, a letter from James, Noble, Jr., Mayor of Home, toD. S. .Bjintup, relative to a recept examination of various localities jn Northern Alabama. He says concerning a point at the termination or break-up of Lookout Mountain, ‘ ‘tbe evidence or presence of oil is plainly to be seen as it can fie collected from the top of the water in the va rious branches or creeks.’” He says further: “Upon the Clayton tract coal has been found and worked, in some places it is but four or five inches below the surface, and crops oqt above water level, fo yejns from twelve to twenty inches thick, and can be found any where upon the tract by going eight to ten feet deep. 1 am satisfied that large veins underlie those already found, but are below water level, and will require steam power to work them.— The veins that have been worked are so near the surface, that we raised coal by uncovering it, mining not being necessary.' ffie tracts have owlets to the riyer, vfoicih is navigable to Rqme, Georgia,- at all' seasons of the year, and are only one and a half miles from the steamboat landing, and within one-half mile of a graded railroad from Gadsden to O-aya- viUe, Alabama.” Extensive coal beds are'also known to exist in Upper Georgia, which is also rich in iron, lead, sulphate of baryta, and other valuable minerals.

The gold market was strong under a disposition to “bull” it among the brokers, by way of show ing that the funding loan was ratbef adverse than favorable to the credit of foe government,- This however, is a false construction placed npon it' which every sane man will scout.
