We have no foreshadowed evidence of another Fenian movement at present, and we cannot believe ‘The combination is effected in this way: ‘certain dramatist, or, more, properly speaking, an adapter of pieods, discharges the functions of critie to some five or six evening and Sun- “day papers. The moment a new piece is in the market this person offers his services for a ‘consideration to the author, and if they are refased he threatens him with his hostility. So far as his influence goes this is un- sparingly exhibited; but as he cannot control the Hxmaup the poison finds its antidote. We should not, perhaps, notice the thing if this person, in obtaining ‘the management of concerts and other enter- ‘tainments, did not assure the unfortunate artists whom he defudes that he has means of getting favorable notices in our columns. So far is this from being the fact that the tickets which ‘he sends us are invariably returned ‘to him, ‘and we refuse to recognize him in any way. We should, moreover, immediately dismiss from our employment any one who was known ‘to have any connection with him. In the same wing with this individual are to be found the critics of some of the daily papers—like him, playwrightsand leecheson the managers. The effect of all this is, we need not say, to lower the standard of criticism, as ‘well as to degrade -the theatres themselves. We shall break down this ring, just as we have broken down the various other similar combinations that have ‘been eet up for the purpose of plunder. We dave no notion of allowing three or four needy literary adventurers thus to assume the control of our city amusements, to the great injury -@f the publio-and shame of the profession to which they chance to belong.

The French Transatlantic mail steamship Europe, Captain Lemarie, whioh left Brest on the Lith of May, arrived at this port yesterday afteracon, bringing our Paris @les dated to her day of sailing. The mails of the Cunard steamship Africa, from Queens- town May 12, reached this city from Boston yesterday evening, with our special correspondence dated to the ‘Uth of May and oar newspaper files from Great Britain.
