The Fenians at Malone and other places along the eastern frontier are going home as fast as possible. Some, who fortunately had friends able to send them money, have paid full fares, and others have gone at half fares, several railroads consenting to convey them upon those terms. They are very sullen and disappointed, and continue to de nounee in the strongest language the in- efficiency and cowardice of their officers. A few bands on their way to Malone have stopped, and some have returned, whfle others, assuming a great deal of bravado, threaten to advance and made another raid. But they are so disheartened by the inglori- ous termination of the campaign entered upon with such high sounding promises, and have so little confidence in each other and in their officers, that the only thing they can i do is to keep quiet for some time to come at least. The Bufl’alo Fenians also talk of making a demonstration somewhere, but they are so demoralized that their threats are of no account. The circlein San Francisco seem to have been unusually excited from the glowing accounts of the utter annihila- tion of the Canadians sent by the Feniens to Malone and St. Albans; and they wishing to rival their eastern brethern, contempla- ted a descent upon British Columbia. at once. When they receive more truthful news, they will probably change their plans. To main- tain the sinking courage of their adherents, and to delude the ignorant in getting up a great excitement. the chief oflicers at the New York headquarters, as well as else- where, have resorted to the most extrava- gant and improbable reports of advances along the whole line, of Col. O’Leary ads vancing into Canada, fighting a battle, in which he was victorious, of course, and cap- turing 60 prisoners. This brought up a few recruits, who must have been “raw” and “green” indeed. Gen. Gleason with Don- nelly, Cullen and Lindsay, prominent Fenian officers, have been brought before Mr. Bren- nan, the United States Commissioner at Ma- lone, charged with making war upon :the Dominion of Oanaea. Not being able to obtain bail they were committed at Canada- igna, where they will be tried at the next sitting of the District Court. Donnelly will be examined before the Commissioner on the 7th June. Colonels Brown and Mur- phy have been arrested are now in St. Albans gaol, as they have not obtained bail. It is said as an evidence of the magnitude of the Fenian preparations, that nearly ten thousand stand of arms are scattered along the frontier from Ogdensburg to St. Albans. with large quantities of ammunition. A great deal of these supplies having been abandoned, have come into possession of the United States troops, and, according to PresrdentGrant’s instructions, will be gather- ed together and taken charge of by the military authorities. Generals Meade and McDowell, with their staffs, have left Ma- lone for New York ; and General Hunt will take command of the American troops in Northern New York. All is quiet at Hun- tingdon and along the St. Albans border, though troops are still on- guard to prevent any lawless band crossing the lines on a plundering expedition. The 69th has gone back to Quebec. The Niagara frontier is also quiet, but strong guards are maintained at: all important pointsâ€"Globe, May 31. President Grant and his Cabinet have, it is said, after prolonged discussion, unani. mously decided to prosecute vigorously all those Fenian leaders who were captured by the United States Marshals while takingr an active part in the late raid, but the hundreds of “dupes” are not to be punished in any w1y. Mr. Thornton, it is also stated, has seen fit to congratulate the American Secre- tary of State upon the promptness With which the United States Government en forced a proper observance of their inter. national obligations. Governor Hoffman’s charitable contributions to the starving and penniless Fenians at Malone for the purpose of paying railway fares to their homes, and securing their votes for the next Guberna- torial election, comes out Of the State Trea- sury. There is no dause for any further ap- prehension since Col. MeNeill and Major Fitzpatrick,“ undoubtedly the best officers” connected with the late raid, have been ar- rested, after an excili-ig chase, in the vicin- ity of Malone by Deputy Marshal Titus. They will both be brought before Mr. Bren: nan, the United States Commissioner. ri‘he reporters of two New York papers have been,detaiued to give evidence against them. Large quantities of arms and ammunitionâ€"â€" filling 26 waggousâ€" have arrived at Malone having been seized by A. D.

Those who were unable to pay their fares had tickets given them by Fenian agents who had arrived with money from various circles, which have contributed libe- rally for this purpose. Three or four more of the leading raiders, have been arrested and brought before the United States Commissioner Brennan. In default of finding bail in'two thousand dollars each, they will probably be sent to the Canandai- gua gaol, to await trial with the others. Gleason, Dr. Donnelly and Lindsay were yesterday taken from Malone to Canandai gua, carefully guarded by a company ofsol- diers, as much to prevent the disgusted pri- vates of the Grand Army laying violent hands on their late otficers, as to prevent them escaping. Gleasnn was “groomed” as he left the station, amid loud cries, by which the half-starved Fenians expressed their revenget’ul wishes that he might be shot or hung. Father McMahon was at Ma.- lone, it is said, inciting the Fenians to make another raid; but receiving a. hint that he would be arrested. by the United States troops, he quietly disappeared, and, for the present, his whereabouts is kept secret. Gen. Starr, in a speech, has explained his conduct in the campaign on the St. Albans frontier to a Fenian Convention, and his statement, being sustained by several lead- ing members of the Brotherhood, was deem- ed quite satisfactory.â€"~Globe, June 1. the credit 07' routing the icuianu iu Elle Trout River affair. ‘ This was due to the excellent discipline of the Borderers, and the‘ Colonel advises all Volunteer cofps to be- come perfect in their drill, for that insures success.

Latest from Europe. American News. THE YORK HERALD, RICHMOND HILL, ONT, FRIDAY, JUNE 3.1870. There is some difficulty in ascertaining correctly the exact number of Fenian mis- creants who were killed and wounded in the fights of Pigeon Hill and Trout River, as the Generals and their men were too anxious to save their own bones to think of the dead and disabled. They seem to he ve been aban- doned to the care of whoever chose to look after them. We can only make an approxi. mation to the number of casualities by searh‘ ing the different narratives of the alfairs published by the United States press ; and these probably are very defective. The New York Tribzinc states that at Pigeon Hillâ€"- John Rowe, of Burlington, was killed. M. O’Brien, of Moriah, N.H., was killed. Lieut. Edward Hope, of Biidgeport, Com, was wounded in the thigh. He claims to have been in 43 engagements in the Unidn army. .F'rank Carrigan, of the same place, was wognded in the groin ;Apr.obab1y_fa;tal. Capt. E. Crofian, (if: the said Company, wag wognded in tgg‘leg; _ J as. Keenan, of For? Ed ward, was wound- ed in the ankle. Lieut. Edward hollahan, of Burlington, was Wounded in the arm. A telegraphic despach to the Detroit Post from Malone on the 28th, states that in the fight at Trout River, “ One man was kllled, “ two seriously I: ended, and two prisoners “were taken” by the Canadians. It adds that the name of one of the prisoners was Moore, from Troy, N.Y. Another Press Despatch fromMalone says: “ Duh'y was reported dead last night; “and the men reported missing have re- “turned to th1s place unhurt, but fatigued “ with wandering in the woods.” Another Press Despatch from the same place, after describing the Trout River fight and stampede, says :â€" Charles Carlton} of Cambridge, Vt., was wounded in phe leg: ‘ Danfiel A'lern, 3f 'Winooski, Vt., was se- versly younqesd in £1.18 hie- THe New York Heralc? states, in addition to these, lhatrâ€"i Genefal J.

An unknown man was killed at the same time as Rowe and O’Brienâ€"and that the total casualities at Pigeon Hill were “three “killed and ten or filteen wounded; more or “less.” In Captain Cronan’s account of the fight at Pigeon Hill, he says :â€"â€"“ We had two “men shot dead and eleven wounded.” A telegraphic despatch to the New York Herald. from Malone, also says :â€"“ The “last warning to Vermont Fenians was “ given here last night.

Since that time the Emigration Department has advices from their Agents in the United Kingdom, indicating that there will.be a great in- flux of immigrants far in excess of pro" vious years. The Commissioner, the Hon. John Carling, addressed circulars early in the year, to the Reeves of the various Municipalities in' Ontario, reâ€" questing them to bring before their several Councils this important matter, and.to communicate with the Commis- sioner of Immigration as to the number of“ mechanics and laborers that could be employed In their various Municipalities. Quite a. number of the Townships have been heard from, and have sent inrequi- sitions for a large number of mechanics, laborers and servant girls. While, again, a number of townships have not made any return and, if we are not mistaken, Markham and Vaughanâ€"two of the wealthiest in the countryâ€"~are among those which have omitted this impor- tant duty.

Sm,-â€"â€"~Under date of Blst January last, I addressed to you a. circular in refer- ence ta an anticrpated extensive Emigration to this Province during the present season, and requested a. return of the number and description of Immigrants required by your Municipality. Since then I have received reports from Mr. Thomas White, Commis» sioner for Ontario in the United Kingdom, and from other sources. all indicating that there will be an influx of Immigrants to this lProvince in excess of previous years. I beg to direct your'attentiod to my pre- vious circular, and to say that I shall feel obliged if you will, as early as possible, make the required return. Those received last season were of great benefit, both to Far- mers and Immigrants. in securing with the least possible delay labourers for the former, and employment for Elie latter. I trust that your Council and theBateâ€" payers of your Municipality, will see the im- portance of coâ€"operating with the Governâ€" ment. by assisting as far as they can, insthe locating of Immigrants. as soon after their arrival as possible. Last season great loss was sustained by Agriculturists in many parts of the Province, owing to the insuffi- ciency of labourers to gather in the harvest. It may not be possibleZthis season to sup- “1 ply, as? promptly as may be desired, all de- mands that may be made for labourers; but the requirements of the several Municipaliâ€" ties will be complied with as far as possible.

The amount of money that is due to Municipal Councils for arrears of taxes is large in the aggregate, and should not be allowed to stand over, as it causes a necessity of levying higher rates on those who pay up promptly, to meet public requirements. If all paid their taxes regularly, the burthen would be considerably reduced. We hope our readers will not neglect this warning, as it may be of great importance to many; and if neglected, will incur a very con- siderable additional expense. OTTAWA, June 1.--Sir. J ohu A.

A bonfire was made of a host of comlfistibles piled round and round an oil barrel. Then a host of meteors followed each other in rapid successionâ€", each accompanied by the diabolical yells of l more diabolical juveniles. Next a lot of 1 fireballs were tossed about with great zest, 1 making quite a hvely appearance as they chased each other in mid-air. Now comes a bomb-shell explosionâ€"reminding one of something more terriflic. The oil barrel burns more furiously; more meteors, fire~ balls, bomb-shells, grasshoppers, fire-crack- ers, and murderous yells, and the scene is drawing near its close. By this time, the old folks have gone home, and the respect- able youths are suggesting the propriety of doing the same. Mother what’s-herâ€"name, is anxiously edging her way through the crowd in search of “ owah gals ;” whom at last she finds, and requests to come home; but “ owah gals” expect to be escorted by Mike Mit'zcoxin, and respectfully tells Mother what'sâ€"herâ€"name that they will go when they are ready. Miss whatâ€"youâ€"callâ€" her is searching the crowd for some one to convey her to her home. Jack Got-fooled, has burned his fingers, and curses fireâ€"werks. The rcwdies parade the street, stroking their microscopic mustachios, which years of industrious shaving, and patient waiting have raised, declaring to be gay and happy as a. “big sunflower,”'and crowning their pretensions to would-be-manhood by ‘ ‘tall ” swearing, and all imaginable blackguardism. Then came “That hateful drum’s discordant sound, Parading round, and round, and round.” But in future it would be advisable for Mr. Drum to regulate his actions, as a commit- ‘ tee will be formed to bring awful vengeance on his poor head, should he persist in driving peace-loving people from the land of Nod, , as he has hitherto been successful in doing.
