Turner, editor of the Sentinel, was wayiaid on his way to the depot at Hillsboro’, Orange county, and arrested by Holden’s militia tis morning. Orange county has not been declared in a state of Insurrection, and no disturbances have occurred there, Both partica here bitterly denounce the oul- rage. The vote county ts democrats, gain. Rowan, Mecklenburg, Cabarrus, Orange and Guil ford counties have gone democratic. It ts4aid that in Alamance county the cons tives were so intimidated by Holden's mulitia they did uot vote; so the county went largely rop lican, ‘The vote in Franklin and Granville counties is very close, and is uot yet decided. It is confidently expected that Johnston and Chat- ham eounties will go largely democratic. In this county, it is thought, the republican ticket Will average about two hunared inajority, with cl ces in favor of the conservative Sevatorkil can- didates. ‘Telegrams received Indicate tnat tile cou- servatives have swept the western portion of the State, Gilligm and Rogers, conservative candidates for Congress ‘from this district, will probably be elected by 500 majority. Present indications show that the conservatives have a bandsome majority in the Legislature ou the jotnt baliot, thereby securing tne election of a Uniled States Senator in place of Abbott, Returns come in slowly. The following is probably the resuit for Congressmen:: First district, Cobb, repubittcan; second, Forty- first Congress, Thomas, republican; third, uucer- tain, with inutcatious {n favor of Wadaill, democrat; fourth, Forty-tirst Congress, Gillam, democrat; Forty-second Congress, Rogers, democrat; fifth, un- certain, with chaaces in favor of Scott, republican; sixth, Shober, democrat; seventh, Harper, democrat.

Important Movement for the Irish Cause France Rendy to lavade Irelaud—New York Fenians Distrasted—British Spies iu America. PHILADELPHIA, August 5, 1870. A report prevails here, ctrculatea by one section of the Fenian organization, that a secret agent from the Irish Republican Directory in Ireland arrivea yesterday morning in this city, and is busy endeavor- ing to heal the Glfferences that have heretofore existed between the Fenian factions here. Lt seems to be understood that if Kngland takes sides with Prussia that France has engaged to send arms and munitions of war to Ireland, in addition to an invading force of 60,000 men. ‘The agent bas no con- dence in the professional patriots of New York, who have beeu organizing raius on Canada, which he belleves cannot affect the condition of Ireland. He says that several British spies have come over to America to make thetr headquarters in New York during the Franco-Pruselan war, The agent ac- counts for the failure of the Feolan movement in Ireland through the folly ov treachery of an Ameri- can envoy, who lost certain documents tn Treland iu 1865, which exposed the Fenian plans to the British government, He urges local organizations every- where, and 14 opposed to all attempts to form an Irish-American tauonal movement, which he be- hheves would be controlled by old well knowa party hacks.
