Three Unmans Knter a Hotel and Com mit a Unrderom Assault on the Pro prietor md hie Bon-One of the As sailant Shot, Ktc. On Saturday night, at aliout half-past 9 c'cloek, three ruffians entered the hotel of Mr. Hachmeyer, known as the (ilendale House, loeAted ahout half-way between Newark and New York, and committed a murderous as sault on the proprietor and his son, Julius, Loth of whom were severely injured. The particulars of the affair are as follows: Shortly after 0 'clock, on the night in ques tion, Mr. llaehmeyer and his son were ahout to clone up the bar-room, as little or no busi ness is done in that remote locality after 9, when three evil-looking men entered and called for drinks, whjch were promptly fur nished. The men spent a short time in read ing the papers, Mr. Hachmeyer and Julius heing engaged in making preparations for closing up, unmindful of the intentions of their visitors. Suddenly one of the fellows jumped up, and, presenting a revolver at the now terrified father and son, cried out, "Your money or . your lives." The others followed his example, and, with out a moment's warning, the three discharged their weapons. One of the balls grazed Mr. Bachmeyer's cheek, while another passed through the arm of his pen, indicting a severe wound. Not satislied with this, each of the rnliians drew fortli a sabre and assaulted the proprietor, who received three serieus wounds in the head. Julius managed to escape into a back room, where he secured a loaded gun, which was standing against the wall. A boy, about fourteen years old, hearing the cries for aid, rushed out from the rear room, when the ruffians made a dash for him, trying to mur der the little fellow. Fortunately they only suc ceeded in wounding him. Julius returned to the bar-room with the gun, which he dis charged at the assailants, one of whom fell. Jlis companions turned and again fired, one of the balls passing through the leg of young Hachmeyer, just below tjie thigh. They then seized their wounded comrade and retreated from the place, followed by Julius, who was determined to be avenged. Fainting from the loss of blood, however, the latter was unable to proceed far, and fell to the ground after firing a shot at the fugitives. Dr. Max Kneohler was summoned to attend Mr. Hachmeyer and his sou, one Dr. A. Heit zog having, as stated, refused his services, on the ground that he might be called upon to testify in court. It was then ascertained that the father had received injuries of a dangerous though not necessarily fatal nature. The suf ferings of the injured party were partially allayed, and they are now as comfortable as possible. Intelligence of the affair was communicated to the police of Newark, Jersey City, and New York, but no clue was obtained to the where abouts of the assailants, who are as yet at large. The affair has caused intense excite ment in the vicinity and among the people of Newark. N. Y. Herald to-day. ... r R1TUAUSM. Sermon by Rev. Dr. Tyog on Ritualism. The Rev. Dr. Tyng, Rector of St. George's Church, preached the third sermon in the course on "Ritualism," under, the auspices of the "Evangelical Knowledge Society," last evening, in the Church of the Ascension, Fifth avenue anil lentil street, to a lull congrega tion. The reverend gentleman took for his text the twenty-third verse of the twenty-fourth chapter of Matthew's Oospel, and stated that "the one great promise of the Old Testament was Christ's coming," referring to the glory of His coming, His mission and subsequent Bufferings and disgrace, and to the importance of believing that on the reality of this true Christ rests the happiness of mankind; that the setting up of a false Christ for the real is fearful and destructive, and reminding his iearers that it was most destructive to deny Christ's divine qualifications and divine person, referring them to the words "Unto us is a child born, the Father of an everlasting age;" stating that through death Christ was a conquerer over death, and that his death worked man's recon ciliation with God. The true Christ was to "rule on the throne;" that there was to be none besides him; that He to whom God said, "Let all angels of God worship Thee," stands tiefore us "as the one Deity clothed with infinite power." lie divided that part of his discourse which related to the false Christ under four heads, namely: First, the false Christ of "Theoretical Rationalism;" second, of "Impertinent Traditionalism;" third, of a "Hollow Ceremonialism;" fourth, of "Assum ing Ecolesiasticalism;" and earnestly ex horted his hearers to turn from those "minis ters of Satan" who set up those false Christs. Those of "theoretical rationalism" he held to be Unitarians and the upholders of liberal Christianity, and denounced the writing of the essayists and reviewers, includ ing the "puerile Colenso," as well as those of Robertson as heretical for denying that the "Word" was written under the inspiration of the Holy Ghost. Under the second head of "impertinent traditionalism," he classed the followers of the anti-N iceuo fathers and those who etate that the Hible is unintelligible to them. Thirdly, "hollow ceremonialism" was the rejection of the whole scheme of salvation through Christ, and the holding of the theory that man arrives at it by his own works. And, fourthly, the false Christ of "assuming eccle Biastieal'Bm" was that of the Episcopal Church, and in the belief that the uctual body and blood of Christ was in the bread and wine nfeen at communion. Dr. Tyng concluded his discourse by refer rintr to the abominations of Roman Catholi cismits gross superstitions, gaudy trappings, an I nriestcraft. A collection on behalf of the "Evangelical Mission" was made at the close of the sermon. A . Y. Herald to-aay. The following order, says the Wilmington . t r. v T."

THE FENIANS AT THE WHITE HOUSE. THE rELTXlAT10J HAVE AN INTERVIKW WITH PUK HIPKNT JOHNSON liBLLlGRRBNT KIOUT8 fOLI CITED. Messrs. Benjamin Baker, of Philadelphia, and James W. Meagher, representatives of the Irish republic in America, had an important interview with President Johnson on Saturday afternoon, with a view to soliciting a recogni tion ef belligerent rights by the American Government. The delegation was cordially received by the President, and Mr. Baker, on behalf of the Fenian Brotherhood in America, made the following address: The people of Ireland have Issued a' declara tion or war. It Is not our purpose to enter Into a detail of the grievances and Injuries Inflicted on the Irish people In Ireland during seven centuries, the unprovoked lnvuslonsof her soil, the burnings of tier homes, the slaughter and butchery of her sons, the cruel devastations, the systemized famines, the banishment of her children by the luappoasable tyranny of the Government of Kiigland. Those grievances and Injuries are witnessed in her forcible malntcuuuco of a forelgu oligarchy, who rob and fntten on the Industry of a race who disavow them; in the smok ing ruins of the cabins of the bumble; in the deserted castles and palaces ol an honor nb e and princely ancestry; in the solemn silence of her graveyards, wherein repose the reinnins of moie murdered human victims than nny other empire at anv period in the history of the world has ever sacrificed on tyranny's Hood-stained nltars within equal limit's; in her fruitful fields Intended by their Creator for the immediate support of human beinus, but con verted Into pastures for emtio by alien rob bers, who boar none of the burdens to wjiich the rightful heirs of tho soil are subjected; in the deprivation of her commerce, while possessing all the qualifi cations of a great commercial nation; in tho destruction of her manufactures by British legislation; in the disintegration of communi ties, the separation of families, and the com pulsory exile of two nations, who, united in one great nutlon on their own land, could serve humanity and advance civilization. The acts of Inhumanity and barbarity perpetrated are Innumerable. They have shocked all Christen dom, audit is Impossible to find a nation whose war is more justifiable, according to ull Divine laws and human rights, and according to the common sense of mankind, than that now waged by Ireland against England for the assertion of her national independence. Tne precedent eslablished by the Government of Kngland In grunting belligerent rights to the I late Uenel.s oi the united states or America Im mediately after the commencement of hostili ties; tho firm determination of the Irish people in Ireland to give no assistance to Knglund In case a rupture occurred between Great liritaiu and the United (States consequent on the Mason and Hlidull dilllculty, the sacrifice of tens of thousands of the Irish race in America during the recent war for the maintenance ot this republic, which the monarchical Governments of Eu rope, more especially that ot England, con spired to destroy; the natural sympathy which the people of this republic should extend to those struggling for freedom now in Ireland, under difficulties equal to, if not greater, than those under which Washington and his com patriots labored for the liberation of this coun try from Biiush misrule; the fact that the Irish republic lias been actually engaged In armed and forcible hostilities against the Govern ment of Great Jiiitaln, under n provisional Government, all these reasons have Impressed the Irish race to represent tho case to your Excellency, and to ask that tho Irish republic shull be resppcted as a government actually In exlhteDce and at war with Great Britain, by the Government of the United .Stales, and that the Government of the United Htates Insist that the rights to which the said Irish republic are entitled during the war shall ba respected by her adveisary, the Government of Great Britain, and according to the rules which nations should reciprocally observe when de ciding their aitlereuces by arms. Tho proba bility or improbability of success cannot enter into the question of the propriety or Impropriety of recognition of belligo rent rights. Tho law of nations, founded upon tho hlr;h moral sense of civilized man, recognizes the fact that two de facto Governments, powers, or armies are at war, and thut lives may be lost, humanity injured, and civilization retarded In her progress, it does not say, "You must suc ceed before I recognize your right to bo re spected as human beings." It says, "Your cause Is just; you have taken the Inst argument to settle your cont roversy. Be your struggle long or short, your success probable or Impro bable, you are children of God; you are Chris tians, you are brave, civilized men, and you are fairly and Justly entitled to recognition." The President listened very attentively, and said the great question was, "Is there a de farto government actually in existence?" The delegation assured him there was, when he continued: "This question shall receive the most serious consideration that 'conside ration necessary in deciding a matter of such great importance. You are aware that my sympathies have always been with your people." The delegation asked the prompt interfe rence of this Government in behalf of the Ante rican naturalized citizens now pining in British dungeons for no crime whatsoever. The cases bf Messrs. S. J. Meany and M. O'Brien wore dwelt upon. They argued that if the British Government were justified in detaining these persons for writing and speaking in America against hnglish tyranny, It would be equally justilied in imprisoning prominent journalists and public men who were naturalized citizens, and w ho had written and spoken in a similar way, should they happen to put loot on British soil. The President said measures had been taken for the release of several natura lized citizens, and that the details and particu lars of all other cases forwarded to the Govern' ment would receive attention, and that full justice should be done to natarahzed citizens. THE PRIZE RING. Arrangements for a Fight Between Sam vollyer and Uaruey Aaron. It has been pretty generally understood among the fancy that arrangements were being made lor a match between bam Uollyer, the "well-known champion of lieht weights. ana isarney Aaron, though It was also known that there was a failure of agreement between the two men as to where the light would take place. At a second meeting, however, this point was settled between the two, and articles were drawn up and signed for a light for the championship and a purse of $3000, .the "mill" to take place in the month of June next. The stakes are to be increased to $5000 if, in the meantime, an agreement to that effect shall be made between the principals. The locality selected has not yet transpired. 'N: Y. Herald.

Mr. John Phllltp, n. A. The steamer brings us word that Mr. Jonn Phillip, the well-known English painter of Spanish life and manners, died somewhat sud denly at his house in London, on Wednesday, February 19, at the age of fifty. He had never enjoyed thoroughly good health, and about five weeks before his death had been suffering under an attack of low fever, from which he had nearly recovered when he was attacked with paralysis while on a visit to his friend, Mr. Frith. lie was removed to his own house in a senseless condition, from which he did not recover. Mr. Phillip was a Scotchman by; birth, a native of AberdeenshlJ and was originally a house-painter. He entered the Koyal Academy as a student in 1837, was made an associate in 1857, and in 1859 re ceived the title of Royal Academician. Mr. Phillip's powers as an artist were not of the highest order; he had a certain skill in seizing the more obvious characteristics of his sub ject, and great facility and cleverness in all that belonged to the mechanical part of his art. lie drew well, his color was effective and not disagreeable, aid his pictures almost always told their story clearly. But he never aimed at anything higher thau popularity, and his truth-telling only skimmed the sur face, from which it followed that he fell easily into repetitions and mannerisms; and having lound a fortunate and happy mine, was con tent to work in it so long as it should reward his labor. His pictures have no lasting quali ties, and his reputation will not endure; but it may be hoped that the delight which the public long showed in his work may lead some one of the younger English artists to do for Spain what Lewis, and Seddon, and Holman Hunt, in England, and Oerome in France, have done for Egypt and Syria give us a series of pictures in which shall be found not merely a rellex of of the superficial manners of her people, but a revelation of their life and character. Spain oilers a magnificent field to thrtist one as yet almost untouched and the most we have thank Mr. Phillips for is that he excited a strong interest in that romantic country, and hinted at the treasure an artist might hope to win theae. An InteresUngtWcddlng. Sir. E G , band-master of the th hi ties, stationed at L , Canada, became enamored of a young lady named L ot the same place, and prooosed marriage. The lady consented on condition that Mr. O would adopt the Israel itihb. faith, as, according to the laws of her people, she could not otherwise become h s wile. This he consented to do, and the prospective bridegroom, accompanied by the bride and her parents, came to Buffalo on Saturday last for the purpose of coins: through with the necessary ceremonies and rites, among which was that of circumcision. The party called upon Rev. Mr. Falk, Minister of the Temple Beth Zion, and explained the object of their visit. After vainly advisine Mr. R against the renunciation ot bis faith, the reverend gentleman consented to do his part, and Tuesday was fixed upon for the performance of the rite ot circumcision. When that time arrived, however, and all preparations were made, it was discovered that Mr. G was already a son of the Covenaut, though ho him self was not previously aware of the fact ! ah oDstacies Demg tnus removed, tne time for the nuptials was fixed for yesterday, and the parties assembled at the Temple Beth Zion at 6 o'ciock in tne arternoon. The bndecroom was first examined in the tenets of the Israelitish religion, and, having satisfactorily answered the questlous put to him, he, in the presence of the congregation, and before the Holy Ark which was open, and displayed the Scrolls of the Law swore adherence to the faith and belief he had adopted. After an appropriate address by Kev. Mr. Falk, whose text was of Ruth and Naomi, and the conferring of the additional name ft Joseph Ben Israel (Joseph, son ot Israel), the mar riage ceremony was performed atter the form ot the Mosaic law, which we have heretofore described. Altogether the occasion was a very interesting oue, and seldom witnessed, as the Jewish law stroncly opposes and discounte nances the conversion of Christians to that peculiar faith.

A regiment of Fenians also turned out, fully armed and equipped. The Commercial publishes the particulars of the sinking of the steamer Mercury, at Arkan sas" Cut-oil', on the 13th instant. The boat struck a snag, and sunk to her hurricane deck. Twenty-live passengers were drowned. The boat was valued at $20,000, and was in sured for $15,000. She had a cargo of 1400 bales of cotton, with a large quantity of assorted freight for Cairo and the Ohio river. The Fire in MeingJiis Loss 9150,000. Memphis, March 17. The fire in Howard's Row last night involved a loss of $150,000, half of which was covered by insurance in Northern offices. The fire originated accident ally in the basement occupied by James Lam bert; then communicated to the steam bakery of George Hume; thence to the grocery and produce store of Cox and Humphreys, and the wholesale liquor house of William II. Carver; thence to the grocery commission house of Norment, Rufliii & Co., and also the agricultu ral warehouse of W. II. Wyatt, all of which were consumed.' About eleven o'clock the wind lulled, and the almost exhausted firemen were enabled to master the flames. Had the wind kept up, tho flames would have doubtless been com municated from the Row to the adjacent pro perty, and a large portion of the city would have been consumed.

WHO IS M'CRftCKEliT Some light may be thrown on the question of the identity of the new Peeping Tom by the following extract which we are permitted to make from a private letter, dated Paris, February 23: "A pair of Americans of my acquaintance pointed out to nio in Ualignani this morning a parnimiph slating that the scoundrelly delator, on the strength of whose letter to Johnnon Heward wrote an uIiiiohI as shameful one to Mr. Motley, Is U.

The allega tion was that the uefendant'sslster was arrested for some misdemeanor, and locked up in the Twenty-fourth Ward Station House. The defen dant was there at the time, and created some disturbance In offering to go his sister's bail, nnd defying the authority of the officers.
