The greatest excitement continues among the Fenians throughout the country, and active steps are being taken to give their friends in Ireland all the assistance in their power. Eng land is not insensible to the danger which threatens, and haste evinced iu the suspen sion of the habeas corptQ act indicates that the Government is in possession of information of an immediate rising of the people. The Fe nians of this country arc rallying to the sup port of the mother land, and judging from the activity of the different circles, the impassioned appeals in Northern and Western papers, and the largo amount of money flowing into the treasury from the sale of bonds, they arc iu earnest, and mean to open the ball of active hostilities. It appears that the O’Mahouy aud Sweeny factions, which have been abusing «nch other for some months, have been acting in concert, and that the apparent dissensions in the ranks were originated for the purpose of deceiving the British Government. The largest meeting ever held in New York eatne otf at Jones’ Wood, on Sunday, the 4th. It is estimated that there were over one hun dred iuid fifty thousand persons present, not withstanding that every effort was made by Archbishop McCloslky and the clergy to dis suade their respective congregations from par ticipating iu tlie meeting. The greatest enthusiasm prevailed. There were five stands erected, from which the im mense concourse of people were addressed by chosen speakers, in stirring words, iu behalf of Ireland and Irish Independence. Speeches were made by Judge Connolly, Capt. MeCaffer ty, Col. O'Mahoney, Dorau Killian, Gen. Mul len, Geo. Francis Train, and others. One hun dred thousand dollars in bonds of the Irish Re public were subscribed to; and some of the speakers asserted that there was an army of three hundred thousand Irishmen ready to take the field. Our New York exchanges, of the sth, from which we obtain the above synopsis, contain lengthy accounts of this meeting, giving minute details of the speeches and incidents on the oc casion. All of them agree that the demonstra tion was orderly and well conducted, and looked as if the Fenians were determined to battle for the ind •pendencc of their native land. Monthly Statement of the New York Market. \Ve arc indebted to Messrs. W Henry War-' ; run A Co., Agents of the house of Obcr, Nan son A Co., for the following monthly report of the New York Market, prepared by the latter Hi in : MONTHLY CIRCULAR. New York, March 3d, 1806. Cotton*. —The market for the past month opened at, 48e. for middling uplands, which was barely maintained up to the Bth, when the news -by the steamer Peruvian, with Liverpool dates to 2C>t!i January, quoting l-2d. decline on Amer ican, caused our market to decline to 46c. On the day following, the Australasian arrived, with • one day inter, quoting an irregular market, with a downward tendency, our market sympathizing, gave way about Ic. per lb. or more, giving us a , i wry depressed mark'd at 44c., which continued J to the Pith, when an improvement in Exchanges i caused speculators aud exporters to come into , the market, giving us an active market with fair t sales up to the 17th. The arrival of the Citv of , ' Washington on the mbrning of this date, with / dates to the Ist, quoting the Liverpool market , ‘‘dull and declining, “middling uplands , IS l-4d.,” caused a further decline with us of le. „ X. peril). *. f >. On tttalOth the Europa advices, two days la- ( , u ( (noting; market “ quiet but steady, n had the j V J inaadfd «' little firmer pmes. *6u Tuesuay, the e WM. 20tli, the Moravian’s news reached us, wltli dates a fj f to the Otli, quoting market buoyant, 3-4 d. high * ! / ev. Those advices inlii>it'd new life into our ft*/’ market, and we had an active business at an ad- l i* 1 i valK:l: of Ito 3 cents per lb., which was barely j I flj rnnintiiined throtigh the day following. On the t I f a 33d the. Cuba news to the 10th, quoting I4d. dc | i A cline, again gave us a dull, inactive market, and c \ w the advance partially lost. 1 111 On the 2<sth the Herman arrived, with dates < yf of the 14th, <] noting the market easier, and quo- „ M tatiomi barely maintained,'caused our market to , W, continue in its depressed state, elosing at 43 to , ,1 44 cents for middlings. «* „ I The arrival of the Asia on yesterday, with f a dates to the 18th, quoting the Liverpool market , " firm but unchanged, linn given more tone to our ~ markot at 44 cents for middlings. The author* ( izeil quotations of the Liverpool market are, , middling upland# 19d„ middling Orleans 19 3-Bd. , Lotal receipts fc»r February at this port, 79,- ", 457 bales, against 9(1,087 bales for January; j sales and resales, for February, at this port, ttl," ) 705, against 93,490 bales for January ; receipts ] at. the port of Now Orleans, for the month, 65,- , 000 bales against 98,000 bales for January ; ex- j ports from this port for the mouth 45,041 bales | J against 48,145 bales for January; stock on hand , j and on shipboard, not cleared this port, i esti- I: iqatc-d 310,000 bales; stock on hand and ou ship- . .f V hoard, New Orleans, 185,000 bales; stock on \ I S hand and on shipboard, Mobile, 76,000 hales; a stork on hand and ou shipboard, Memphis, f *, 31,000 bales; Liverpool, February 18, Arneri- Ili can, 315,000; other sorts, 338,000 —total, 443,- (< > f 000. The above figures show a falling off in re ¥ eelpts, both at Now Orleans and this port, as compared with January, qf about 37,000 bales, and the indications arc strong for a continued decline in receipts in all the principal ports which should counteract any further material decline, notwithstanding the heavy stock in the I different ports. | We quote our market, to-day, steady.

This from a stock of over 20,0t)0 hhds .shows a small mouth’s busi ness, and may be accounted for on the grouuds of the bulk of this stock being of noudeseript Tobacco, and not suiting tho wants of the trade. Fine Cutting Leaf iB very scarce and much in demand, while dark heavy Clarksville, and leaf or lugs suitable for common medium and flue manufacturing, will find ready buyers.

The Vicksburg Journal, of February 12th, publishes a letter, written by J. E. Davis,brther of Hon. Jeffersou Davis, which criticises with great severity a passage in the autobiography of Lieutenant General Scott, in which the al legation is conveyed that Jefferson Davis favor ed und was mainly responsible for the policy of repudiation adopted by the State of Mississippi. We make an extract: 1 n his memoirs, written by himself, on page 148, in a note speaking of a prisoner taken at Chippewa, a Lieutenant Colonel John Morryl lion Wilson, this statement occurs: “This gallant officer always (since) an invalid aud friend of Scott’s, who was,in the time of Wil liam IV., in the household of the Queen, and since in the government of Chelsea Hospital, still lives. -» “He invested all his littfe sa.ungs and wife’s dowry in Mississippi bonds, repudiated mainly by Jefferson Davis. It was Scott’s strong state ment of this interesting case at the time, in a published article, that brought upon him after wards the persecutions of Mr. Davis, as Mr. Pierce’s Secretary of War,” etc. It would be difficult to conceive a statement more atrociously false and malicious. In support of this denial, J. E. D. gives a brief sketch of the political life ofj. D., show ing that his participation in political affairs began after the question of repudiation had been set tled. He then “pitches in” to the veteran Lieutenant General in the following savage style : It. will be remembered that what the Lieu tenant General calls “persecution,”, was the re fusal of the Secretary of War to allow a claim for back Ray as Lieutenant General front the time Scott was In Mexico, and which the Secre tary showed conclusit cly lie was uot entitled to. Tliis resulted in an angry correspondence, in which the peculations and frauds upon the Treasury were exposed to such an extent that it was believed if the frauds had been known he could never have been a Lieutenant General; i and, as it was, he only obtained it, by iinpor- \ tuiiate solicitations, not only by himself and others, but even by ladies, engaged to go to the capital and to use their influence to obtain votes, ft. was also said it. would entail no charge upon t the Treasury—was intended merely as a com- 1 pliment to gratify an old soldier; lytt no sooner 1 was It. obtained than he presented a claim for back pay, for rations, (orage, transportation, etc. i To the Lieutenant General, acting as his own trumpeter, and,drawing upon his imagination for facts laudatory of himself, there can be no objection, except, that it is humiliating to every American that au officer of his rank could make such an ass of hlmselQ but to the malic* and l«w revenge, that, after the. lapse of ten years, I could induce him to select a time when. Mr. to Mm, to utter such falsehoodiunust be regard- J ed by all who value honor , truth and manhood , as below even contempt. ’ Frozen to Death—A Fearful Struggle . for Life.— Ou Thursday evening last, John Pultz, a German resident of Lansing, was frozen to death within a mile and a half of home, un der circumstances of the most heartrending character. lie had been visiting a brother who 1 lives about ten miles from town, and at two o’cloqk of the fatal day started home on foot, 1 accompanied by his two faithful dogs, the only witnesses of his horrid sufferings. As the ; weather was extremely cold his friends here accounted for his absence until Friday, by the supposition that his business detained him, but not hearing from him Saturday his wife became alarmed, and a messenger Sps sent, which soon 1 discovered tho sad intelligence of tho death of the missing man. A party made a careful search for him, but not until Monday" morning was his body found, being in a slough in two i feet of snow,within a little over a mile from home. His track in the snow revealed the hor rible tact that he had lost the way, it being dark, and that long before, one loot had been frozen stiff, and having lost the use of it he had walked on one knee, dragging him self along with one hand, a long distance, until he wore the pants qp that knee bare to the skin, and finally, not giving up, he had crawled forward with hands and knee, until one arm became frozen, and then he laid down to die. He had, in his bewildered and helpless | condition, traveled around in a circle far enough i to have reached home had he kept the proper j direction. One of the uogs remained with him two days, and the qther poor, dumb, afiectionate animal remained with him three days and nights, lying upon his body, as if seeking by its warmth to restore life and animation to its frozen master, and abandoning him only when driven away by the keen pangs of hunger. [Lansing (Iowa) Journal. The Qi.p Traitor Again.— Wc are glad to learn that that hoary-headed old traitor, Wm. Lloyd Garrison, spoke in Brooklyn, on Tues day evening, to a very small audience. The people have had quite enough of his traitorous rantings. They know him 48 the denouucer of the old Union and old Constitution which con ferred upon us uutpld blessings. Just now he is engaged in denouncing President Johnson, and declares that it is the duty of Congresa at once to impeach him, and charges him with seeking to imperil the valuable lives of Thad. Stevens aud Charles Sumner, by referring to them as traitors and revolutionists! We advise Garri son to look out for his own carcass, and not worry himself about oilier people. He com menced his career by being mobbed and pelted with rotton eggs, and he may end it in a more tragical manner. Let him beware how he preaches disunion sermons in the North. [.Vcic York Day Book. One of our city contemporaries noted the fact that a Radical wlio entered the Representative Hall during the sitting of the Union convention of the 23d, and listening for a few minutes to the reading of Washington’s Farewell Address, unapprised of what it was, turned upon his heel in evident disgust, and exclaimed: “Just as I expected—a d—d rebel document !” Since the President has defined the enemies of good gov ernment, the Radicals arc denouncing him as “a traitor, as a rebel at heart,” and are endeavoring to make a new government by amending the old one. That is just what we have expected all along.— Nashville Union and American. Texas Intelligence.— On the Bth of Feb ruary Mr. John R. Catterton, of Round Rock, ou Brushy ereek, was murdered by two men while he was sitting in tlie house with his wife. The murderers then robbed the house of what money it contained, amounting to thirty or forty dollars. A young man named David Harvey, a olerk in the store of Q. p. Phelps, in this city, was shot in front of Peck’s Hall last Friday night, about eleven o’clock. The young man formerly be longed to a Michigan cavalry regiment, as wc hear. He died next day after the shooting. The conclusion in the public mind is that the deceased was shot by one of the guard on duty at the ball, though the fact did not appear at ihe investigation.— Austin Intelligencer. A Good RErojtT.—Gen. Richardson, writing from Darlington, 8. C., to the Cincinnati Com mercial, says : “The quiet and orderly conduct of the people, both white and colored, deprived as they arc of the customary restraints of civil law, is really surprising. I traveled recently two hundred miles in an open carriage, without a guard and without arms, through unfrequented parts of the country, and I found the road, by night or day, as secure as in Ohio.” Bedford, Ind., March 6.—On coming home from the country last evening, Dr. Ben. New land, a -well known citizen of this place, and late a surgeon in the army, discovered that his daughter had been 6educed by the ex-Rev. Madison Evans, who had recently rendered himself so notorious by his escapade with a married woman at Greencastle. Dr. Newland, on learning the terrible calami ty that had befallen his family, at onqe armed himself with a revolver and a surgeon’s knife, and proceeded in search of the villian. Find ing Evans, he shot him and cut his throat, kill ing him instantly. The coroner was summoned, who held an in <lu®Bs£>®.A*le the jury returning a verdict that Dr. Newland had not committed any crime - Os which the law could take cognizance. There is intense excitement here in regard to i this terrible affair, but the almost universal sen timent Is that Dr. Newland was justified in the i coarse he pursued in ridding the earth of a mon ster who had used the garb of religion to seduce 1 his friend’s child, Dr. Newland being a promi nent member of the church of which Evans i ttm until recently a minister.

TO THE CITIZENS OF GEORGIAI The termination of a sanguinary contest, which for the past four years has presented an impassable harrier to all social or commercial intercourse between the tWo great sections of our country, having at length happily cleared away all obstacles to a removal pf those relations which formerly bound us together in a fraternal union, I take the earliest opportunity afforded me by this auspicious event, to greet my Southern friends, and to solicit from them a renewal of that extensive business connection which for a quarter of a century has been uninterrupted save hy the great public calamity to which I have ad verted. It is scarcely necessary, on the threshold of a business re-union, I should repeat the warning so often given to my friends—to beware of ail those spurious and delete rious compounds which, under the specious and false titles of Imported Wines, Brandies, Holland Gin, Liquors, dec., have been equally destructive to the health of our citizens as prejudicial so the interests of the legitimate importer. Many years of my past life have been expended iu an open and candid attempt to expose these wholesale frauds; no time nor expense has been spared to accomplish this salutary purpose, and to place before my friends and the public generally, at the lowest possible market price, and in such quantities as might suit their convenience, a*ruly genuine imported article. Twenty-five years’ business transactions with the largest and most respectable expensing houses in France and Great Britain have afforded me unsurpassed facilities for supplying our home market with Wines, Liquors, and Liqures of the beet and most approved brands in Europe, in addition to my own distillery-in Holland for the manu facture of the “ Schiedam Schnapps.” The latter, so long tested and approved by the medical Faculties of the United States. West Indies and South America as an invaluable Therapeutic, a wholesome, pleasant, and perfectly safe beverage in all climates and during all seasons, quickly exciting the cupidity of the home manufacturers and venders of a spurious article under the same name. I trust that I have, after much toil and expense, sur rounded all my importations with safeguards and direc tions which, with ordinary circumspection will insure their delivery, as I receive them from Europe, to all my customers. I would, however, recommend in all cases where it jg possible, that orders be sent direct to my Depot, 22 Beaver street, New York, or that purchases be made of my ac credited agents. In addition to a large stock of Wines, Brandies, &e., in wood, I have a considerable supply of old tried foreign Wiues, embracing vintages of many past years bottled up before the commencement of the war, which loan espe cially recommend to all connoisseurs of these rare luxu ries. In conclusion,[l would specially call the early attention of my Southern customers to the advantage to be derived by transmitting their orders without loss of time, or call ing personally at the Depot, in order to insure the fulfill ment of their favors from the present large and well se lected assortment.

Dbar Sir: I have been afflicted many years with severe prostrating cramps in my limbs, cold feet and hands, and a ger.eral disordered system. Physicians and medicines filled to relievo me. While visiting some friends in New York who were using Plantation Bitters, they prevailed upon me to try them. I com menced with a small wine glassful after dinner. Feel ing better by degrees, in a few dayS I was astonished to find the coldness and cramps had entirely left me, and I could sleep the night through, which I have not done for years. I feel like another being. My appe tite and strength have also greatly improved by the ÜBe of the Plantation Bitters.
