The outer iron door wai opened tho inner un

table at bis side, writing intently upon a sluet of

shadowy band which hovered around him ho would

fellow-countryman Bersor, with his purple face aud

Irow that very pot but lour months since. Thoro
wou'd have been Spring, the 8ku3piu.sk.l3, and
kindred fiends, lor none from tuat cell went save
dead or to tbe ga'lows But there, his inferior in
crime, would have bad no terrors compared with
thot-e evoked by tbs memory of his victims It
needed not that these spin's sbou'.d come, remem

make him understand what future pun shra. nt was

Mr km wo lid strike that number once again, that

'the ictple beuii to hear of Lis a. rest ttnd
wheitaboi.li, and they commi'iicd pcuriug in.
Iheie were Fenians, pale with exc tcment, but
01 stout heart; theie were Feu tans with red tacer
and hot perspiration bsiiing Irom every pore;
iheie were Fen tins who wished to jump into
the gsp" thut iin taut: and otheis who were
staid, cool, and collected. All were anxious,
sympathetic, uud imll.-iuit at tbe course ot th'
Government. Jlr. ltoUns hnn-e:i was very
quiet and uucon eiiied. He dul not s"in th :
least discouctitei', t;i d appeared to look upon
the anest ot hiiiuel! and Genual Seeney as u
simple matter of reisecut'on and spk-en on the
part ol the Govt lxu.eut,
The liesident stated emphatically that he
(rrs:detcd the authorities wire overreachlntr
1h( nifelvcs, and seemed des'rons by rycophitn'lc
fforts to outdo nen-rallty by fawning upon
Kt plaml. He d d not expect niuch less after the
'lra mcnt ol tbe bojs on board the Michigan.
He tenths' a Government that would pcimlt
such outiai:eous treatment to men who had
stood by ir in the hour of peril could not be ex
peeled to use any citizen well whom, with a
sbado-y of pretext of an Infringement ot its laws
it could get its hold upon. The Colonel was not
nt all disheartened by this treatment. He felt
lhat it would Im-pirs the Irish heart, and If there
was nnv blood lett in the brsw ny frames of Irish
men this act would prompt them to come to the
Iront.
Colonel Roberts further eaid that he consider
as yet he has inlrinced no law of the United
States, and that he thinks this extra ollie.iotis
uess on the part of the Government superfluous
and beneath its digtntv. He is quite ready at
any time to tske all the consequence of 'auj
ninie he may commit.
Mrs. Robeits said she felt sorry that the
Colonel should Iwive been takeii quite so soon;
that flic would have much prcieired tuat he
should have been at the iront; tha I eland's
renrnciatioLi is a settled plsn, mid that the
