Seeing the critical state of affairs, owing to the Cretan insurrection aod the danger menacing the Ottoman Empire, Mustapha Fazyl Pacha, head of the reform party, and Fuad Pacha, one of the Sultan’s Ministers (probably corresponding with our Secretary of Foreign Affairs), have induced the Sultan to propose through an envoy, Servez Effendi, to the Cretans to elect two representa- tives from each province and send them to Constanti- nople, there to state the complaints of the Cretan people before a commission appointed to hear them.

In the first piece both Mr. and Mrs Williams appeared in the char- acters (which they have made their own) of Ragged Pat and Judy O’Trot, and in the last piece Mr. Williams peared as Paddy Murphy with his usual success; but the principal feature of the entertainment was Mrs Wil- 7 evidence of her ible versatility ‘and vivacity as ‘actress and her ability to throw into the part an air Theatre Francais. : H ! 3 i Saunier, Caruel and Daire must be repeated whenever reference is made to the “ pane - wae Peace tae a fact, praise can rarely be withheld from any o artistes with whese merity the appteciative have long ‘been familiar.

Unabated Excitement in New York—Milltary eers—The Exchequer Be- meral Order No. 3 from im, de. ‘The excitement consequent on the receipt of the Fenian news from Ireland continued without abatement yesterday, and from an early hour in the morning to late at night Chatham street headquarters was crowded both in the oilice, on the stairways, and on the streets outside, and the police, detailed specially for the pur- pose, were kept constantly busy keeping open a passaze through the dense throng of men for foot passengers. ‘The news from Ireland, as on the day before, was, of course, the all absorbing topic of conversation, and the desire to aid the men in the field was universal and sin- cere, Hundreds of able bodied men, many of them veterans of the late war, offered themselves to the cause, but on account of the present lowness of the funds their services could not be accepted, the exchequer being unable to pay expenses across the ocean. Still, if matters progress as satisfactoriiy as on yesterday the funds of the organization wil) soon be in ‘& position to afford materia! aid to the irgents, who are undoubtedly in need of such to insure their suc- cess, Subscriptions were pouring in peng Sie) all juarters, and even the very poorest sent im their mite. eelve workmen in an iron foundry up town forwarded by the hands of their foreman $100 in greenbucks. The employés of another establishment added $300 to the fund. Other workshops and factories sent their col- lections in proportion, and individual subscriptions were either being :eceived or promised up to a very late bour in the evening. The officials at headquarters seem to think that the Irish societies of this city would be show- ing a better national spirit by devoting to the succor and aid of the patriots the moneys which much neces- sarily be laid out shouid they carry out the intention of ~ grand procession or turnout on St. Patrick’s day. vateers are spoken of and ardently wished for, and seve:al dashing looking seamen made inquiries on the subject yesterday, resolved to ‘man the boats”? shouid they set out, Many of them were Irish, but the greater pumber were evidentiy Americans, anxious to aid the cause of liberty as well as to have ‘satisfaction’ for the injury done American commerce during the late war by English cruisers, A meeting of cegtres and dele- gates will be held to-day, and sev others will take place during the week, which, it is hoped, wiil have the effect of stirring up the Irish in this country, now that the blow has been struck at ‘home. The fact o: the insurgents being able to keep the field for over five days in spite of British power encourages the brotherhood and sympathizers here to believe that matters look wore for the English side of the fight than jespatches wonld have them believa; but it is a fact that while the cable despatches from Ireland, to say the least, are beautifully mysterious, and written with an express design to shape the mind of the American people a8 to the condition of ‘on the battle tields of Ire- land in favor of the government, litle matters leak out once ina while which tell a different story from that promulvated by the English cable, and which go to show that ‘the race ia not always with the swift nor the bat- tle with the strong.” It is somewhat noticeable that for nearly three weeks previous to the ar- rival of the iast steamer not one word of Irisb news flashed throngh the cable, althoegh it w; well known that a rising took aig Ae the cqunty of Kerry on the 12:h of last month. It is asseried by well informed Fenians here that no reliance should be placed on cable erpovipe | Qs the British government have con trol of both ends of it and wil! not allow a single word to pass that would favor the cause of the insurgents no mat- ter how successful or victorious. Itis also given as a reason why no faith should be placed in cable despatches that nearly all that have been received here are either dated from London or Liverpool, while the seat of war is within “a stone's throw” of Valentia, the point from which the cable starts, and whence it is natural to ex- pect the most positive news. It is also asserted tbat not even these colored despatches would come vow did not the government know that the state of affairs in Ireland could not be longer concealed, as pergons arriving out would bring the news and inform the people here how matters stood in Ireland at and before their depariure, pat iloning i « copy of general ohn has e6n promulgated for the guldanas ‘of offic re of the Army of Liberation, which **tounts for the acknowl- edged absence 4% acts on th ‘th ss people, %¢ will speak mime Te .

For the past four days dissension, bitterness and sec- tional animosity have ruled supreme in the Virginia Sen- ate, Notwithstanding the praiseworthy efforts of Gov- ernor Pierpoint to invite the large party of moderate Men in the State, with a view to put them, as possessing the ability only, in control of the State government, it is now apparent to any observer that the “ioyal Union men,” ao-calied, will unite with and place themselves at the head of the negroes—refuse to co-operate with tbe conservative element here, and thus defeat any ac- tion that might place the government of the State in loyal hands, or in the hands of those who alone have the moral power to govern in the absence of the disfran- chised secessionists, The question of calling a conven- tion to accept the terms of the Military bill bas occupied the Senate since the convening of the extra session fog that purpose by the Governor, A bili has been re- ported by a committee of that body to call a convention, which provides that the Governor sball, before the 10th of April next, appoint commissioners to Lold an election for delegates tp that convention throughout the State; raid commissioners to open the polls at all places for voting on the first Thursday in May.

These speeches wore remarkable only fur 1 ctive and denunciation of the radicals, eulogisms of General Robert E.,Lee and Jef- ferson Qavis as two great suffering patricia, Some wem- bers wish the military commander, who it is supposed will be General Schofield, to call the convention, while others want to go to Washington and ask President Jobn- son todo it, The majority of the members are, how- ever, in favorof calling the convention ‘‘under protest.” Cail it or not, it has now become a matter of extreme doubt whether such convention, brought together under the authority of this body, would exercise any influence on the future destinies of Virvinia, The General Asseai- bly are tardy in thelr action; have no) unaniinity ove way or the of ; Spend (heir time in cavilling about their “honor;” stirring up the old embers of their lost coupe; Mastering Mgmory with g foolish and religious zeal i of showing @ decire for reconstruction, are assiduous in denouncing the horrible and uoparal- leled despotism of the ruling party.

While making some disparaging remarks about President Johnson he was saluted with a few hisses. It was re- markable that throughout his speech the only animation he created was when he related some coarse aneodote, or, with self-giorification alluded to some of the shame- less tricks by which he had humbngged the people, Baruum said he wanted his namesake to take the stump with him and discuss the great questions of the day ; but that the proposition was declined on the ae he believed, that his competitor had no praitiples to discuss, Afier expressing his opinion Ubat the tangs of the traitors should be drawn out before they were readmitted into the Uniou, and also his belief that the South would eventually auto w one another into the Union under the ayltary bil ilke a flock of sheep following their bell wether over astone wall, hesuddealy wound up as if disgusted at the lukewarmness of the audience, by stating that he had now to catch the train for New York.
