Another soldier had been arrested in the garrison at Cork—a drum major in the Second rogi- ment; and the Cork Examiner says further arrests were expected to be made among the troops quar- tered in that city. Onthe other hand, another paper says that Rotwithstanding the arrests already made there seems to be but little warrant for the story that the troops are tainted with Fenianism, and there is reason to believe that the troops as a body are perfectly loyal and oer to aid in the repressian of any rebellious out- real On the 21st some detectives from Dublin arrested two men in Manchester—one a bookkeeper and the other a railroad porter. Arms and ammunition were found in’ their possession as well as criminatory papers. They were conveyed to Dublin. Efforts were being made to secure several other active Fenians in Manchester. At Sheffield a travelling agent of the Fenians was also arrested by Irish detectives and sent to Dublm, Docu- ments were found upon him clearly connecting him with the conspiracy. Police officers from Dublin were on the alert at sevaral other places in England. The Work of the Organizations Sti!! prong * Fenian organizations in Liverpool and Glasgow were said to be sti!l at work, notwithstanding what has taken placé. The members of the gociety in Liverpool were circulating reports of an armament on a large scale from America, and it was stated that a large number of Ameri- can military officers had arrived in England, some of whom had made their sppearance in Liverpool. ‘The Dublin Bvening Mail of the 2ist says:—‘“We are in a position to state that no examination of the cases ‘against the prisoners will be proceeded with on Saturday (the 23d), 6 evidence, both verbal and documentary, is of such an extensive dnd voluminous character, that it bas been found {i ible to so order it that it may at that time be brought before a legal tribunal. No addi- tional arrests of consequence have been made.” The London Times oditorially ridicules the movement as absurd, but stil! sufficient to justify the steps taken to fippress it, The article cays:—It is something to be as- sured of the ridiculous character and utterly ins gnifi- cant proportions of this latest movement. It is something to have ‘t, clearly shown that the Am government rejects all such participation in proceedings of this ‘kind as Trish- men have fondly expected from it, and perhaps the ex- posure of this folly in ail its incidents may bring Ireland 2 of the 22d says:— off Cork, looking out for a ve cleared from an American port All quict throughout Ireland, The Army and Navy Gacite says the reports of the troops in Ireland being infected with Fenianism are eal- culated to lead toa very erroneous and unjust iinpres- f10n It is probable soldiers have fistened to the ad vances of the rowdier, but an investigation wiil probably show that these fhrtations have been brought about moro with a view to presents of drinks and money than a be of their position, All the troops in Tr principles in relation to such a general rie ‘The present military a Ireland amounts to 26,000 men, aud there are 30,000 arinvd police, id aro Fta.

[From the Cork Constitution, Sept. 21. ‘The arrests continue in this city, and doubtless, from the information of whieh the authorities are possessed, before they stop every person in the locality prominently connected with the movement will be taken into custody Notwithstanding the quiet way in which the proceedings are taken, each Fenian being apprehended without any* noise or commotion, the fact quickly gets enrrency, and at each arrest the excitement of the people it increaved. Yesterday the eubject was uppermost in every person's mind—the prevailing desire was to get news about Che body, whove ramifications are now seen to be much more er- lengire than wes’ previousty thought, aud each successive day’s arrests only confirm the fact. FURTHER ARRESTS. Since last report four persons have been arrested—two soldiers, one a dram major and the other a sergeant, and the third and ans. The drum major is named Farrell, and belongs to the First battalion ef the Second regiment; the sergeant is named Butler, of the Ninety- ninth, Hoth were apprehended for having Fenian docu- ments about them and were committed to the military cols. The civilians are John Hawkes and John Carmory. Hawkes is a man employed at Mr. Jonathan Ruseeli’s establishment, Prince's street. He was taken yesterday by Head Constable Geale and Constable Carson and committed to prison.

PENIANISM IN THE ARMY. With regard to the military arrests it may be stated that an error oceurred in mentioning yosterday that an acting sergeant major of the Second regiment, a sergeant mnveketry instructor, and Aa company sergeant bad been taken, charged with treasonable practices, ‘The acting sergeant major is an old and respected non-commis- sioned officer in the Queen's regiment and quite free from any imputation of disloyalty ; the sergeant musketty instructor ts at Youghal fulfitling his duties, and has not been in Cork for some time; and as regards the com- pany sergeant the statement was equally incorrect; but it is no wonder (hat such statements should gain publicity, because, though it ts known that arrests were made in the barracks, it is utterly impossible to get information, owing to the reticence of the military authorities, the result of which is that inaccurate statements are circulated and in too many cases implicitly belleved. There is no doubt, however, that Drom Major Farrell, of the Second- regiment, and Sergeant Butler, of the Ninety-ninth, have been arrested for Fenianiam, and there 1s no doubt either that other meu in the garrison, though not under arrest, are very sharply watched ; for their complicity in the Fenian movement ig more than a suspicion. There is a large nomber of Englishmen and some Scotchmen in the bar- Tacks, and a good deal of bitterness exists among them that any man of their corps should be connected with the Feninns.

The Moniteur of the 22d mye itis authorized to state that no change inthe members and the policy of the French government is contemplated, ramors are the invention of evil disposed persons, The Shipping y says the discovery has been made in Paris, that in the maps of the last century two “small islands were indicated between Ireland and New- foundland—one called by the French Isle Verde, at about lat. 27.N. and long. 29 W. trom Paris; the other called Isle Jacquet, lat. 47 N, and long. 42 In the maps of the present century these islands are not marked; but it is thought probable by the French that they still exist. If so, they could be utilized in the laying down of the electric cable, Austria. The Emperor of Austria, on the 2Ist ult., issued an im- ne. manifesto to his people. In it his Majesty up- olds, above“all the fundamental ideas which found ex- pression in the Diploma of October 20, 1860, as hence- ‘forth the leading principle of the imperial government. The manisesto solemnly guarantees and irrevocabl; establishes the right of the people of the empire to parti- cipate through their representatives in legislation and in the conduct of the finances, ‘The manifesto refers to the unequivocal contents of article 6 of the fundamental law on the representation of the empire proclaimed in the imperial patent of the 26th of February, 1861, and renews the whole body of fundamental laws previously iesued, revived and recent- ly promulgated, and deciares them to be the constitution of the cnpire, The manifesto recognizes the readiness with which, in reply to the appeal of the Emperor, a great part of the monarchy sent representatives to tiie capital for the pur- pose of solving certain highly important questions. It also points out that the constant wish of the Emperor—viz., the formation of a darable and constitutional charter of rights for the empire, which would receive strength and importance from the free participation of all the subjects of the empire—has up to the present time re- mained un(ulfilled, and cannot be realized 80 long as the first condition of bringing all its component parts into clear and unmistakable harmony remains unfulfilled. The manifesto goes on to state that, in order to redeem is word, and not to sacrifice the seuse to the letter, the Emperor has determined, first, to enter upon the way leading to an undersianding with the legal representa- tives of his peoples inthe eastern portions of the mon- archy, and to lay for acceptance before the Hungarian and Croatian Diets the October Diploma and Funda- mental Law promulgated by the February patent con- cerning the representation of the emp re. As, however, it is legally impossible to make one and the same conastituuon the subject of negotiation in one part of the empire while it is simultancously treated in another part as a fundamental law gencrally binding. the Emperor finds himee!f compelled ‘to suspend the validity of the constitution and the actual representation, with the express declaration and reserve that the result of tne deliberations of the Diet in each eastern kingdom, in case they should comprehend a modification of the existing laws compatible with the unity of the empire und its position us a great Power, shall be Jaid for ultimate approval by the Emperor be- fore tho legal representatives of the other kingdoms and provinces, to receive and worthily estimate their expres- sion of opinion. ‘The Emperor regrets, the manifesto observes, that this imperatively required step also brings with ita suspen- sion in the constitutional working of the Lesser R:ich- srath, and fivally deciares that, eo long as the represen- tatives of the empire shall not be assembled, it will be the task of the government to forward all measures that cannot be postponed, cnd among these eepecially such as are required by the Hnancial aud commercial interests of the empire, ‘The Imperial manifesto concludes as follow: “The course leading to an understanding, while taking into consideration legitimate rights, is now op-n if—as T expect, with full avsnranec—a sacrificing and conciliatory spirit and ripe insight guide the views of my fathfal peoples, to whom th Imperial word is aduressed to thorough confidence.” The Neue F cindentlat’ states that n note has been do- spatched to the Austaian representatives abroad, defend- ing tho policy pursued by Austria in the question of the Duchies. hs The statement of the correspondent of an English jour. nal respecting negotiations for the cession of Venetia to Italy is denied in official circles in Vienna, There were reports of a new Austrian loan to be contracted through Mesers. Rothschild and some English capitalists, R The Jcurnal of St. Potarebning, in answer to the Moni- tour, says:—“With respect to the Duchier, Russia always rman Powers bad not remained on the ground of European treaties; but she did not think proper to encourage the Danish government In allusions which could not be realized, Russia will act as she did two years ago when her interests shal) re- quire it,”?

OUR VERA CRUZ CORRESPONDENCE. ‘Vara Cruz, tept. 21, 1865. Afluirs in this country are daily assuming a moro gloomy appearance, and the situation is so precarious and painful that strict reticence has to be observed by those who are anxious to carry out their ideas at any cost. The press, despite the restrictions with which it is hampered, speaks of nothing but gucrillas, robberies, engagements between imperialists and republicans, dis- turbances and military executions, A change or sup- pression of proper names wo suffice to render the Present condition of affairs precisely similar to that of Spain in 1808, or of Poland in 1863, and the situation is bemg daily aggravated and rendered more complicated by tho continuous arrival of French soldiers. Last week the transport Rhone arrived with one thousand mon on board, and the steamer Louisiane, which arrived yester- day, brought six hundred and forty; so it appears that a considerable force is necessary to uphold the national will in Mexico, At the same time, in order that nothing may be want- ing m the play which the French are performing here, Marshal Bazaine has discovered a conspiracy in the capi- tal of the empire, and has had upwards of one hundred of the most prominent residents of the city imprisoned. As Bazaine has a special police force of his own and ex- ercises supreme power whenever he sees fit to do so, he can have persons arrested withont saying a word to the imperial authorities. This has occasioned a serious diffi- culty between the Emperor and the Marshal, which ended, however, in the same manner as have other diffe- rences between these personages—the former made a trip into the country while tho latter liberated those prisoners who could prove their innocence. Conse- quently, many of them are free again and the others are awaiting the return of his Majesty to enjoy the same privilege, for in uo case have the charges made been substantiated. The newspapers have not dared to print the word Geycoegan in this connection, The public expression of i would give the lic publicly to the policy of France, consequently the press received orders not w allude to the subject, Some papers have referred to captures and outrages, but indefinitely; so thai the alarm has increased and the scandal has been rendered worse. When the affairs of a country are conducted in such @ manner it is easy to calculate that the result can- not prove satisfactory, Much blood will be spilt; the French soldiers will stifle the national fecling by killing tiose Mexicans who protest against their rule, and they may finally establish a “peace of Warsaw;” but they cat never secure order nor justify their aggression in the eyes of humanity, All that 1s wanted to complete our misery is that, in addition to the other diseases brought into the country by foreign mercenaries, the cholera may be introduced; and itis stated hero that a vessel will shortly arrive bearing another present made by the Viceroy of Egypt to Louis Napoleon in the shape of one thousand black soldiers shipped from Cairo and Alexandria, in which places th's scourge has committed such ravages already. God grant that this terrible anticipation may not be renlized, Hitverto, at the different visitations of this scourge upon the world, the United States and Ravana have been unfortunate enough to carry the contagion into Mexico; but now Mexico seems likely to receive it oy and then communicate it to Havana and the United ites, ‘The Emperor has returned to the capital, and Marshal Bazaine continues to have persons arrested on the plea of conspiracy. ‘The farce threatens,to become serious. General Cortes, of the Mexican artillery, has been exiled, The Austrians bi sufiered afresh defeat in Oajaca. Three hundred of them marched against 1 republican coionel, Fagneroa, and were beaten and stripped of their weapons. Another Austrian detachment experienced the same fate at Huasteca, ‘The imperiat government has conferred the military and political command of Durango and Chihuahua upon General Brincourt, and San Luis and Taumalipas have been placed under General Douai. From this it is in- ferred that both of these French generals have become 6ubjects of Maximilian. We are looking forward with fear to the arrival of the Egyption negroee, as they may bring that terrible scourge, the cholera, with them, and the inhabitants are taking mneasires to off the pest.

Investigation of Our City Af- fairs by the Governor. How the Street Cleaning Con- tract Was Made. Testimony of the Mayor’s Private Secretary, The Secret Meetings of the Commission--- Their Acts, Debates, About twelve o'clock yesterday the Governor’s Room ip the City Hall was the scene of considerable interest and some excitement. A large crowd of lawyers, report- ers, city officials and others had assembled around the door of the room long before the time appointed for the investigation of the conduct of the city officials was to commence, The police, however, by the exercise of some force, preserved order, The doors of the Gover- nor’s Room were opened at twelve o'clock, and were in- stantly filled by the crowd. Governor Fenton took his seat at a table in the room, and announced that the time for commencing the trial had arrived, John McKeon, on behalfof the Citizens’ Association, offered a paper to the Governor,charging the Comp- troller with taxing the employes of his office $25,000 to pay the expenses of the investigation. The Governor read the paper, and decided that he could not receive it as a special charge, because the trial was in reference to the street cleaning contract. The city officials present were the City Inspector, Comptroller Brennan and several Aldermen. The State officials present were, besides the Governor, Colonel Hastings, the Governor’s secretary, and a few lesser lights. A motion to move tothe chamber of the Board of Councilmen, as a more convenient place, was adopted by the Governor, and an adjournment to that room was ac- cordingly taken, James T. Brady, counsel for the Comptroller, said that it was right thet Mr, Gregory, the complainant, should be present, that he might be cross-examined, and it should be ascertained whether or not he is a tool for the deception of the Governor, used by a political party. He also argued that the Attorney General of the State should be present, as there was never a case of impeach- ment at which he was not present, ‘Nelson J. Waterbury, who appeared for the complain- ant, stated that it was ‘unnecessary for his client to be present; the charges were lawfully made, and as his client did not know anything of his own knowledge it would serve no end of law to have him present. Judge Allen, who appeared for the Corporation Counsel, argued in the same strain, as did the counsel for the Comptroller, to the effect that the accuser of the officials should be present, It was a provision of the common Jaw, and well known, that au accuser should be present at a trial. He also argued that the Attorney General should be present to prosecute, instead of those who may have if! will and persona! malice to gratify. ‘The counsel for the City Inspector followed in the same strain as the counsel who preceded him, and used much the same arguments, Judge Emott, who appeared for the prosecution, said there was no rule of law eo! the accuser to be Present, even ina court, He reminded the gentlemen who had spoken for the public officials that it is not Mr. Gregory that ig on trial, but Messrs. Boole, Brennan and Develin. Mr. Bi replied in an elaborate argument to the ar- quinents of Judge Emoit, The only point of his ad- dress, however, Was that the accusers of the city officials had the press at their back. The Governor decided that the investigation should go on, and that if it was found necessary to have the Attor- ney General or Mr. Gregory present they could be brought forward. ‘The decision created a sensation.
