Sweeney, accompanied by Col. Meehan and & few other oficers of his staff, left here thirafternoonat 3 o'clock for St. Albaps. It is expected that he will return to- WOTrow. THE FORCE at this point at present is variously estimated as high @s 1,500, and as low as 600. The men behave in a very orderly mauucr. Rations are regularly served out to them, and up to the present time they have received three rations jr¢ day, but only two were given out to-day. Gen. Heflerman is in command here. The seizure of the orms has incensed the Fenians against the Unlted States suthorities, of whom, especially the Secretary of State, they denounce in unmeasured terms. RAIDS. There are rumors of intended raids on various points of the frontier in this vicinity, but they cannot be traced to any trustworthy source, It is, however, certain that the Fenians would be now in Canada were it not for the seizure of the arms. MISCRLLANEOUS. One of Gen. Sweeney's stafl pronounces the proclama- tion purporting to come from Sweeney, and published in the New-York papers, bogus, Nearly all the members bave been in service before and are fully determived to fight. — St Albans. ] Bostoy, Tuesday, Juve 5, 1866, Special dispatches from St. Albans, dated to-day, say that the main column of the Feniaus commenced moving from Fairfield at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, the column beaded toward Canada. Small detachments soon afterward followed in the same direction. Gens. Spear and Mahan remain at St. Albans to organ- ize recruits and look after expected arms and ammunition. ‘The non-arrival of war materiel has delayed the move ment. PREPARATIONS. ¥ It was known that & large amount of much needed stores had been sent from Troy, New-York, for this point, and its failure to arrive had “caused serious dm‘gmm- ment. Trusty officers and men have been despatched to hunt up and secure the missivg wateriel. Seven car loads of Fenians arrived from Massachusetts this morning, bound to the front. Generals Spear and Maban intend to Jeave for the front to-day. GEN. HOOKER APPEARS ON THE FIELD. S1. ALBANA, VL., ngzz. June 5, 1866, By order of Gen.

The Fenians are in the neighborbood of Freleighsburg, Highgate, Franklin and Pigeon Hill. - No fight bas yet occurred, but one is expected this afternoon. The United States troops are advancing to preserve neutrality. OTHER REPORTS. BosTox, Tuesday.

These are such as to give encouragement, and both officers and men are sanguing of puccess.

Burraro, Tuesday, June 5—1:15 P. M. PROCEEDINGS AS TO THE PRISONERS. At an early bour this morning warrants were issued by {he United States Commissioners in this city, command- the United States Marshals to -Lynhend the Fenian ofticers who are now on board the steamer Michigan, and bring them before the Comimissioners for examination, when it will be decided whether they shall be held for trial before Judge Hall. Tt is said that the officers will make no defonse, confess- ing toa breach of the Neutrality law. e writ of habeas corpus was served last evening, re- turnable at 9 this morning, to give Commauder Bryson of the Michigan time to consult with the Washington author- ties. : I’nno prisoners are really in custody of the civil author- ities, and the military and naval forces are guarding them. SHOOTING OF CAPTURED FENIANS. On the other side, early this morning, four more Fenian srisoners were brought in a and placed in the Niagara cerry-house. Many of thein wet with a quicker fate as {he volunteers shoot them dead when found. Tt is reported that no less than 25 or 30 have been shot in the woods round about Fort Erie and Ridgeway. But this needs confirmation. v Altogethe , the Canadians bave about 100 prisoners, of whom 0 are doubtless civilians, as arrests were made with very little discretion. Sixty are now reported to be lodged i:?!rlmfiml Jail and at Port Colborne. Al the trains on the Grand Trunk Railroad are ranuing regularly, east and west. COL. LYNCH'S MOVEMENTS, Col. Lynch of Chicago, who assumed command at Buf- falo on Friday night, left the city on Sunday night, and 1s reported to bave taken wi wgo were waiting to reénforce Col. O'Neill. Col.

Meade stating that no landing had been effected at any point in his vicinity. ’ Two companies of Battery H, United States Artillery, from Fort Schuyler, arrived here this merning, and other troops eame last night. MISCELLANEOUS. - The report that _arms had been seized at P. O'Day's store, who is the Head Center here, 1, we belicve, i correct, as the only arms taken from his store were seized in the way of business by Fenians.

Considerable excitement exists here. The court-room is crowded with the friends of the prisoners, Col. Lowery, commanding at Fort Erie, has notitied the British C: | in this city that no permits will be recognized by him for persons to visit their camp. A large number of the British have left Fort Erie for Prescott. PRISONERS IN THE FENIAN CAMP.

Along and most interesting Cabinet session was held to-day, at which the Fenians engrossed Government atteu- tion. There are sundry current leakages going to show that the President aud & majority of the Cabinet were earnestly in favor of energetic measures to maintain our neutrality, but that it was discovered to be an ugly aniwal to seize by the horns. Mr. Seward is reported as desiring the President to sign a proclamation; but & more discreet Minister thought it would be better not to draw the Fenian fire just now in that direction, so the proposition failed. It was then agreed that the Attorney-General should serve instant notice upon all United States District-Attorneys and Marshals, notifying them to * suppress” any over- beated Fenian who may be suspected of designs upou Her Majesty's kingdom. Be this statement true or not, immediately after the ad- journment of the Cabinet meeting the following circular to the District-Attorneys and Marsbals of the United States, was issued: A0 ‘WasiNoToy, D. C., By direction of the President you are hereby instru to cause the arrest of ull prowinent, leading or corspicuous per- sons, called ** Fenians,” who you may have probable cause to elieve have been or may be guilty of violatioos of the nea- trality laws of the United States.

W., June 3—2 p. m. My dispatch having informed you of the end of the raid at this point, 1 have now time to give some details, After the skirmish at * the Ridge” (Limestone Ridge), the Canadian force engaged there fell back toward Port Colborne. At this time, the column coming up from Chippewa Lad got within & mile of Black Creek, and there rested for a short time. ‘There being no scouts or cavalry with this force, the officer was for some time unaware of the fight at the Ridges, and was indebted to some young men who were scouring round (as much to keep their horses out of the bands of the Fenians, s to see the fun) for the first intimation of it. COMING NEAR FORT E! After a rest the force went on by the Fort Erie road and cawe to 8 halt for the night within two miles of the old fort. Here the men lay upen their ars, with a troop of cavalry, under major d' Enison, doing patrol duty. Early to-day the column moved, and, as it came near the old fort, skirmish lines were thrown out, and a battery of six guns sent to the front. This was the exciting momeut. 1t was thought that the Fenians were cornered, and that there was to be a heavy “bag” of them. THE CAVALRY. At the same time the troop of cavalry came, by another roud, toward the village of Erie, and all outlets for uur were closed. Some few thought the Fenians would fight desperately. THEIR FORCE was estimated at 1,50 men, with no known that they were led by a Col. Bailey, both said to be good officers; and, in which the Fenians were bandled the day thought they would be well directed. CLOSING ROUND THE FORT. Now the skirmish lines were close to the fort, and all was expectation. At this moment, two or three men showed themselves on the skirt of 8 wood, and a fire was ed upon them. After twenty or lh'my shots, the ring was stopped, for it was found to be directed at a fow roving farm hands who had the curiosity to come and look at the red column of me“o '3 nunalhe rood. 1 hear that one poor fellow was badly wounds Tee lines were now quite close to the fort, and a line of men was expected to show itself at any moment. Up to the site of the fort the gkirmishers weut, and no enemy was to be seen. THE ATTEMPT TO RIVER, A few minutes before this the_troop of eavalry dashed into Erie, and ascertained that 700 of the Feniaus, that is all who were fit to move, had, at 11 o'clock the night be- fore, tried to cross to the otber side of tho river at Lower Black Rock, but were brought to b{ the boat Michi- rn.

Besides this wounded man, there wero some dozen others, All received surgical aid and were well treated. From one man, belouging to Company A of the 18th C cinnati, I learned some details of their organization a strength. The man was not more than 20, and was hit near the eve and in two fingers of the left hand. He said that the total foree landed in Canada was about 800 men, and that they were parts of several ents, under the command of Col. O'Neill, who had Cols. Builey and Hoy under him. Most of the foree were dressed in a good green jacket. Somo of the officers wore U. 8. uniforms. DETAILS OF THE RIDGE FIGHT. From this man, who was in the Ridge fight, T learned the following particulars: He said that Company A was out as a pic ine, when the skirmish line of the column from Port Colborne struck it and drove it in, slowly he ns, and it was Neill and a Col. from the way before, it was says, and finmt foll back, The Company rallied on | , which formed a column by divisio an force, which the rest of th then eharged with o checr upon the Can broke and fell back in coufusion. e said they behaved “yery ‘rom the other side I hear that the force s erm " The officers in command evidently were unfit to direct men under fire. The loss in this fight of the Fenians was abont 12 killed and wounded, - That of the Canadian force was four killed and sbout a dozen waunded. After the fight the Fenian force fell back and observed the road from Chippewa, by which it was known & strong colum of Regulars with six guus was advancivg. CROSSING. The force coming up from Chippewa being strong and good in quality, aud it being likely that the colnmn ix t direction of Port Colborne would again advance (the t waking about 3,000 mep, apd 12 guos, breech-loading), the comman: iH officers of the Fenians decided to recross the Niagara, took sl for that purpose. A barge was loaded with 700 men (all that were it 10 move) and put out into the stream towed by atug.

From this it would seem that the termination of the Fort Erie raid doesnot end the attack upon Canada. THE PEELING IN THE PROVINCES is one of confidence in their ability to repel any attacks, and there 1s a fine force of young men under arms, but under the command of officers lacking knowledge of prac- | tieal warfare, After the defeat of the eolumn from Port Colborne thiers was feeling of disappointment, for that force had some of the best corps in the province, ome being the it (i;u'fln‘l Own,” which left for the seat of war, 80 {ospeak, with 419 men, und lost some 15 men in the skirmish at Ridge,” but that was trifliog 1o its loss of confidence, | It was at first thought that no Feniavs could fight 20 min- | utes with the Rifle Corps of Canada, and the test of qual- | ity has dispelled that illusion. | “I'hero has been great exaggeration of the Fenian foreo, | it being placed as high as 3,000 bat not numbering moro a\nn 800 at most.

Of course the designs of the Fenians are vailed in secrecy, and can only be seen when they develop themselves e ‘The smallness of the force sent to Fort Erie shows either that the Fenian forces are weak, or that the movewent is not meant as an important one.

The beadquarters of the Roberts faction in Broad- way were the rallying'point of a erowd of excited Fenians yesterday, who went there to obtain the latest intelligence from the Canadian raid, and to speculate upon its probable success.

The King says he does not want war; that he is doing his best to avert it; that he hopes peace will be maintained; and yet his land is being compelled to arm to the teeth, The best of it is, too, that nobody can furnish a rational explanation why these preparations are being made. am not doing anything and don't intend to do anythinj Prussia replied, * You arearming, and, therefore, 1 shall arm;” Italy said to Austria, *‘ You are going to attack me, so I shall make ready;” Austris said then to Prussia * ‘I am not arming against you, but am ting rendy to defend myself inst the Italians, who n‘:g:fn w’muk me;"fim(‘-‘.-m'm, ¢ Italy denics it,s0 1 not disarm;” Austria adds, I shall not dis- arta unless you do.” Then says Austria, “1 shall to the Diet at Frankfort;” towhich Prusaia replies, ** You have uo right to do o, for this Schles Holstein affair isan affair between ourselves, with which others have vothing to do.” And as the dial on, I shall ouly De giving the common notion of the whole affairif 1 tuz it in the following way: Austria and Prussia are two big boys who have walked off with & piece of another boy's 0; on the way home they begin to guml, for Master P. wants the whole and Master A. won't give it to him, unless puid well for it; 8o they commence ing out for each other, and at. last square " hat do you mean by squaring at me!” Says A., Who said I wis squaring at you 1 you are pulling off your coat to go at me!” Auswers P., “You nml;; pmt;mu A“.. h‘;'.‘fo 1 dido't; but I'll not uare an’ r if you'l in to put on your coat.” finn'hi{e fifll been winking to fltmddl{ng hobble- de-hoy fellow, called Master Italy, to walk into A. at the side, which, as ne owes A. an-old grudge, Italy isvery glad % 0.
