Progress of the Irish Revolutionary Move- ment—Colonel Kelly’s Arrest and Re: Two Policemen and a Prison Officer Shot in Manchester. At the Manchester City Police Court, on Wednesday, Septemper 11, two men, said to be “Amorican Irish," were brought up under the Vagrant act. Between three ‘and four o’clock that morning they had been seen in Swan street by some constables on the beat, and through their being unknown, coupied with their suspicious a) pearance and manners, they were followed and mately taken into custody, Originally there were for men in the party, but two of them made thelr escape. ‘The who were arrestea are said to have offered considerable resistance and to nave made a violent eflort to get their hands iato their pockets. On being searched they had each a revolver loaded with powder and ball, capped. The auswer to the charge of being in tho streets for a felonious purpose was that they were American citizens and were living on their means. Mr, Superintendent Maybury, of the detective department, wished for a remand, as he uad reason to believe that ho would be able to connect the prisoners with the Fenian movement. The prisoners wore accordingly remanded for a week. o They were subsequently identified as Colonel Kelly apd Captain Deasy, but woré released by # Fonian mob. THE RESCUE. Atelogram irom Manche.ter, dated on the 18th of Seplember, ‘says:—The Fenian Colonel Kelly and Cap- Deasy, Who were apprenended bere on the llth instant, were brought up to-day and remanded. On their removal to prison a mob attacked tho van and re- leased the prisoners, who have not been recaptured. Two police officers were shot in the melée, £300 re- ‘ward is offered by the secretary of State for the recap- ture of the prisoners. Kelly is described as of stout build, one tooth de- ficient tu lower jaw, hair cropped close, dark eyes, fat nontrils, aged thirty-six. Deasy has dark eyes and long hair, thin face, sickly pearance, aged twenty-eight. e van was forced open, and the driver and two other policemen were shot. One of the police is dead. ‘THE ORGANIZATION REVIVED IN RNGLAND, [From the Liverpool Mercury, Sepi. 16.)

If Keily is really arrested in Manchester it will show that this statement was well founded.

THE ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH. Proposed Reduction in the Tariff on Mes- eages—Ear! is of the Company—Corporate Differences—The “Packing” Syatom of Seud- ing Messages, (From the London Star, Sept, 7.] An extraordinary general moeting of the shareholders was held yesterday in the London Tavern, to receive the directors’ report and statement of accounts for tae year ending the 28th Ju and to deter pe iden ithe following Wa the oe % the payment of a of the directors :— It will be observed that the large sum of £205,317 has been earned by the tables during the past year Towards the close of the inanclal year the revenue has had to bear the expense of two accidents to the cable of 1868, both, it 1s The last Tespect Of these two events, and thi not having as yet been agreed to by the AUattis Company, has for the present been (0 # suspense account.

They are sorry, howe’ that these concessions to the pubbe were neg: board of the Anglo-American Company. The Atlant pany have also subsequently failed in Toor renewed endeay- Ors ‘to induce the Augto-American Company to unite with them in the adoption either of the proposed or apy other practicable form of reduction, The Chairman expressed his regret that Mr, Stuart Wortley was too unwell to attend the meeting, aud he had to regret the absence of the other directors. On that occasion he would be as brief as poasible, and only enter into business connected with the revenue and the proposed alteration of the tari! in arranging it the }; Atlantic directors were anxious to consult the mutual interests of the two companies and the convenience of the public. fhe net earnings for the year ending July 27 were £153,134, after deducting £7,014 for bapk interest upon bonds issued in 1864, which charge would not occur again; that £153,134 would pay an ioterest of six por cent on £2,400,000 whicn would be about their paid-up capital if they paid off the Anglo-American mpany, aud leave £16,000 for a reserve fund. faking into account the amounts charged for the two accidents—eontingencies which they hoped would not occur again—and the £7,014 for back interest, the net earnings would be, without these deductions, £182,000, which would pay seven per cent on $2,400,000, leaving a reserve fund of £14,000 And had they been in possession of their cables even the £153,000 of earnings would have paid eight per cent on their £600,000 first preference stock, and eight per cent on a second preference stock of £1,200,000, Jeaving 13 per cent for the £600,000 of old shares, ‘The results of the last year’s business would show the advantage of having the two cables. Without the two cables they would have been in very great dif- foulties, Although the expense for the second cable was felt to be very heavy at the time, it was perhaps better to have incurred !t, becauso with two cables they were able tn case of accideat to one to continue the business with the other.

The reduction proposed by the Atlantic board would pave the way for furthor reduction, and they would see what they could do for the beuelit of the public consistently with taxing care of the inte: of their shareholders, The Atiantic share- holders received a smail pittance and bad spent a great deal of money, and the Anglo-American directors should look a littic more to the interest of the Atlantic shareholders, and desire to see them get a dividend, They should appeal to their share- holders to adopt some plan by which all partics would bo benefited.
