Gen. Meade is being visited by many of the residents. In the evening, at 11 o'clock, a bonfire was kindled in his honor, in front of the Seymour House. About 200 persons were present. Gen. Meade responded to the serenade which was given him, and returned his thanks. ¢ THE MEN AT MALONE. Ocp' <BUKG, Monday, June 4, 1806, 1 have just heard from Malone. The Fenians are loun, ing around the railroad depot, and small parties of the are walking about the town. They are peaceful and quiet, and number about 300, They are apparently without design or ob) ‘The late news hus completely disconnected any arrange- ments and plans they have had. ‘They are said to be under the command of Col.

June 4, 1566, The people of this place take a keen interest in the Fenian operations. They say that the Canadians behaved 0 treacherously toward the ‘citizens of Vermont in the St. Albans raid that they would like to see them punished forit. The u{mp.lhy of all classes with the Fenians is nguestionable. e main body of the Fenians, according to the best in- formation received here, is encamped near Fairfield, s small town five miles east of 8t, Albaus, while two smaller columns are posted at Swanton and Fairfax villages, o littls north of St. Albaus, and about 12 miles from the Canadian line. REPORTED CROSSING OF THE RIVMR. There was a report in circulation here to-dsy that the Feniavs bad crossed the border in large force, and were marching toward the St. Lawrence River. The objectionable point of the Fenian rumvlgn in | believed te be either Montreal or Ottawa, but the intel- | ligenc of their movements is too r aud obscure to | render these opinions more than conjectures. | There are many Irish in the places above-named, and hey concel and sustain the Fenian camps so carefully that it is hard to estimate the number of men they con- | tain, The general opinion, however, is that it is much | larger thau is usually estimated. u‘ovn NTS. .

MONTREAL Monday. June 4, 1866, A heavy rain storm bas prevailed here throughout the day, and until this evening the popular feeling relative to the invasion of the Fen: has been somewhat subdued, but at this writing is ag: ts full hight, The impression is rapidly gaining ground that the end of the invasion is near at hand, and that some action of the United States Government, as yet occult to the Canadian people, but in full sion of the Government, has beeu initisted against the Fenians.

The Mayor bas compelled the Police to take the oath of alle~ giunce, which quite a number of them refused to do, and were therefore instantly dismiseed the force, A BTAND TO BE MADE AT CORNWALL It is now thought that the Fenians, if they make a grand stand, will do so at or near Cornwall, and that collision may take place at any moment, The Canadiau forces aye very strong at that point. Bdll few additional troops left the city for the front to-dey. PREPARATIONS. The gunboat Iluu), under command of Lieut.

The news of partial reverse or success which the telegraph told them before leaving the city, had but slight effect on their minds, for were thoy uot coming to open the ball and commence the work in earnest! When the rest of the pnm-r:fiem Lad sought their pillows, aud but & | few, who ling to whisper, it may be a tale of love, remained on deck, they left their state-rooms and strode | upand down and exchanged their thoughts beneath the silence of the night.

They occu) room No. 70 on the second floor, and had breakfast served them in it at 8 o'clock. Gen, Sweeney eame down to dinner at 1 0 clock | and was ized by a few of the guests, g the days everal Centers called on him, but his presence was not generally kiown in the city. He left for Ogdersbugg in the night train. Gen. Sweeney is in every sense of the word a true Irish entleman. A pative of the green Isle, his heart still fondly turns toward ber shores. He was born at Dunman- way, in the County of Cork, Treland, in 1922, his famil having been loeatéd in that vicinity for at least a couple of centuries, His father, William Sweeney, was possessed of very great force of character, a quality which the son inherits, and was always known as an “honest man,” that noblest work of God. He died in 827, leaving & widow with several children, of whom ‘Thomas was the youngest, The widow and childron e igrated to the United States, and at an early age the pres- ent General was .p%r:nticod to the printing business, 1n 1816, when the war between the United States and Mex- ico broke out, he was one of the first to volunteer, hunn: joined Col. Ward B. Burnett’s 1st Regiment of New-Yor ‘olunteers, in Company A of which Lie was soon elceted Second Lieutepant., The 1st New-York Volunteers were assigned to the Brigade of Gen. James Shields. He participated in nearly all t un'Euem»mn of the campaign under the Tate la- mented Scott, whose obsequies we reported a few days n;fiz from the siege of Vera Cruz to the storming of Cherubusco, which preceded the capture of the City of Mexico. In the action of Cerra Gorda be received 8 lance wound in the faoe, the mark of which he bears to this day. Ho was severely wounded in the right arm at Cheru- buisco severely that moxtification ensned and rendered amputation necessary. He returned to New-York in 1848 and was entertained | at agrand reception ball given in his honor at Castle Gar- | den by the printers of the city. Shortly after he was mar- ried to the c hter of the late John Cl. His wife is now dead, and of four children, the issue of the mar- riage, one bas died. As a recognition of his services, Lieut, SWMm.Z] received the commission of Second Lieu- tenant in the Zd Regiment of U, 8. Infantry, and was ordered to California. In the discharge of his duties there he elicited the warm approva! of his superiors in command. Subsequently he was sent to Fort Pierre in Northern Nebraska, where he acted as aid to Gen. Harpey, Next | we find him in New-York, and while there len'tlnuiprov | motion to & captainey in his regiment. At the outbreak of the late Rebellion he was ordered to Newport barracks, and was subsequently entrusted with the command of the S8t. Louis arsenal, which he held until the arrival of Gen. Lyon. Ho was second in command at the surrender of the State forces at Ci Jackson, and conducted the ne- otiations of the surrender. He was mainly instrutaental 1 the organization of the Missouri three-months’ ve - teers, of which ke was -rdM 1. He did good service in the brief eampaign uader Lyon, and in the couneil of war previous to the battle of Wilson’s Creek, while nearly all the other officers urged a retreat, Gen. Sweeny opposed it, and declared it more likely to re- sult in disaster than s fight 0 impressed was Lyon with the co; that he determined to act on them, In the battle which followed, Gen. Sweeny received a bullet in the ln{blhial still remains in the wound. Inthe engagement, the gal- lant Lyon fell, and Sturges, who assumed the command, determined to retreat. Sweeny still , and offe tolead his own brigade in pursuit of the enemy, as an earnest of his confidence, The plan was not adopted, and defeat, according to Sweeny's predictions, was e result, After the disbandment of the Volunteers, Le was offered and accepted the command of the 524 Regiment of 1 nois Volanteers, and after the capture of Fort Henry was in command of that was dgain against superior numbers, and rrectuess of his views, the 29th of September, 186, commission of full Brigadier-General of Volunteers was issaed to bim, and he was also raised to the rank of Majorin the Regular Army, receiving two brevets of Colonel and Licutenant- Colonel. He was soon after placed in command of & division, and dunni.the campmgn under Grant, ‘Thomas and Sherman, discl ym the duties of Acting Major- General in & manner that elicited very warm approval from his superiors in command. At the close of the war he was brevetted Major-General of Volunteers for distinguished conduct in the field. Then came Fenianism. At the Philadelphia Congress he ten- dered his services, which were accepted. The history of Fenianism is too well known to need recapitulation here. Suffice it to say that Gen. Sweeney is regarded as the mil- itary leader of the movement at present, and to-morrow morning will be on the Canadian frontier endeavoring to “raise the green above the red.” He speaks with confi- dence of his cause, but you will be able to judge of that atter before this letter is in print. prhwiur v ey Miscellancous.

During the whole of yesterday small groups of ex- cited Hibernians congregated at various gstbering places dls- oussing the chances of success their countrymen would have in the raid on Canadsa. The O'Mabony, Roberts and Steplens factions were well represented, all of whom had diverse opin- jons regarding lnmul Jnvasion, aud it was somewhat diffi- cult to glean anything definite about the affair.
