The London Times says that specimens of virion gold have been discovered in Tinstream, in Cornwall. A sensation rumor, received in Europe by way of Halifax, Nova Scotia, stating that the French Minister at Washington had suddenly demanded his passports and would sail on the 10th of November, had created a good deal of excitement in Liverpool. A letter is published from Consul Dudley in the Liverpool papers regarding the cotton supply from America. The old cotton in the Southern States fit for market at the time of the capture of Savannah, it is estimated, did not exceed one million of bales. This year's crop will probably not exceed three hundred thousand bales. He estimates the present amount of cotton on hand at l

tarved, or a groundless hatred to England." The London Morning Herald pitches into Uncle Sam for not snuffing the Fenians. It says: "The Federal Government has hardly acted a wise or dignified part in regard to the Fenian agitation. It is unworthy of a Power which pretends to respect public law, and which desires to maintain peace, to allow a conspiracy to be carried on within its jurisdiction for the invasion of the dominions of a neighbor. We never interfere with the plots of Mazzini or Kossuth so long as their execution is to take place solely on Italian or Hungarian soil, but if either were to collect a force of aliens in this country for the invasion of Venetian or of Hungary, we should speedily knock the scheme on the head. So we do not ask the Americans to prevent Mahoney talking of an Irish Republic, or sending money and instructions to his dupes in Dublin; but we must remind them that a raid into Canada could hardly fail to have very serious consequences.

The Fenian Stephens in Paris. New York, December 15. --The Dublin Irishman, of December--, has the following letter, translated from the French: "Paris, November 27. "Mr. Editor, --I take the liberty of writing to you these few lines to inform you that your brave countryman, Stephens, who escaped so happily from Dublin prison, has arrived, safe and sound, in Paris. He has even been seen during the past two days, surrounded by numerous friends, dining in one of the great restaurants of the Boulevard des Italians. It is needless to tell you, Mr. Editor, how the world was delighted on hearing that Stephens had escaped. We are all convinced that the day is not far distant when Ireland shall break forever the Saxon chains which have kept her bound so long, and will resuscitate, as they, and as we all hope in France, great, glorious and free. "I have the honor to be, sir, "Your obedient servant, [Signed] "J. De Longville, "a profound admirer of the Irish nation
A word to the Fenians. --The Fenian in the United States is in a somewhat different position from his brother in the old country. This day's European mail brings us news of the conviction and the sentence to long terms of imprisonment of another batch of unfortunates connected with the Order. It is, perhaps, none of our business; but when several hundred more deluded victims of American Fenianism have been sent to penal servitude, the Fenian imposition will be apt to be better discerned than it is to-day. It is a glorious and perfectly safe enterprise to govern an imaginary Irish Republic in Union Square, New York. It is something different in the neighborhood of Dublin, where Irish juries and Irish Catholic Judges are required to deal with the matter.--New York Times.
al of Captain McCafferty, the American Fenian, is progressing at Cork. Second Dispatch. New York, December 29. --The bullion in the Bank of England had decreased four hundred and forty-eight thousand two hundred and fourteen pounds stealing during the week. It is stated that Admiral Goldsborough, commanding the United States squadron in European waters, will establish his winter quarters at Villafranca, near Nice. The Fenian Special Commission adjourned its sittings at Dublin on the 13th, and commenced in Cork the following day. The trial of McCafferty, late a captain in the Confederate army, is progressing. Strong precautions have been taken to maintain peace in Cork. The Cork Herald alludes to the recent departure of skilful pilots for America as an evidence of contemplated naval operations by the Fenians. The Times says the passage in President Johnson's message which concerns England ought to be read in a friendly spirit. The Morning Post says it
onsidered as having abdicated, and that no Fenian, after such a circumstance would occur, was for a moment bound to the oath he has taken. There is a strong belief entertained in many remote districts that James Stephens is not only secretly located in this country, but that he continues to issue dispatches, from time to time, through the country to the A's and B's. Another significant fact connected with Fenianism is the great sympathy evinced for each prisoner who receives his sentence in Dublin, and for those who are in prison. It is confidently believed that subscriptions are being collected throughout different districts of the country for the support of the wives and families of all who are or may be arrested for Fenianism, who are not provident enough to afford the means of sustenance themselves, and that even respectable farmers are coerced to contribute to the fund. I merely give the tone of sentiment and the feeling which pervades in the provinces, which is too distinct no
