Tfcis excitement hns been Pootlnu:illy on tbe increase, and culiulnat ed to-day in the b asing of two acres on tbe McCray farm, in the immediate vicinity of tbe Dalzell well, to Meisr. II. B.

Next Mondav Is the day sot apart for the decoration of tbe graves of those who fell In defense of our country. And they are scattered from one end of this broad land to the other. On many a southern plain lie the l;onea of those who fell In battle, aDd in many a quiet grave yard sleep those who died from dis ease, and in what more fitting manner can we show our appreciation of tbeir great services than by strewing the beautiful flow ers of spring over tbe places whero they Sleep. ine custom of decorating the graves is a simple vet beautiful one. and the day set apart will be generally observ ed. ' Extensive preparations sre beinu made in Titusville and other places, and no doubt delegations from this place will Le present and assist in tbe ceremonies: "Come, bring the flowers bring fir young uower, mat iook sh iresn and gay, And twine tbe wreath and brigh, t festouns, and twine tbe sweet bonnet Let Natures sweetest, brightest smiles this uuy oe on our Danci, And all from cot toeourtly ball assist with heluioK hand. And we II approach with mespured tread where lie our fallen brave. And with these emblems of our love .we'll strew tiie ir humble craves." Tbe excitemeiit at West Hickory still continues, and the demand lor teases, -pecla'ly for building purposes, is lively. Yesterday an ancient looking individual, dressed in a costume of "ye olden lyme," appeared on tbe Tullle farm and made hixi- self very consplcous by informing those in want of leases tbat by giving bim the sum of $25, be would show them where they could put up their buildings, In this man ner be succeeded in collecting about $700. In tbe uieantimo soma of tbe parties bad commenced building, when Mr. Neybart, one of tbe owners of tbe land, made bis ap pearand upon tbe scene and forbid further operations in tbe building line. When tbe parties found they bad been sold, great was their rage, and immediate search was made for tbe ministerial looking individual, but tbe "bird bad flown." Decidedly a new way to "raise the wind."

About half pist II this morning tbe Fenisns, wno had been for several hours previous busy imparking and otherwise getting ready lor active service, at Hub bard's Corners, half a mile beyond Frank lin, took up the line of march and when they arrived near the bouse of Alvin Rich ard', about twenty rods this side tbe border, they balled and General O'Neil made the following speech. "Soldiers This is tbe advance guard of the Irish American Army for tbe liberation of Ireland from the yoke of tbe oppressor for your own country. You now cuter that of tbe enemy. .The' eyes ol your country men are upon yen. Forward march!" The advance company wns from Bur lington, and commanded by Capt. William Cranon or that city. At the concluslou of O'N'eil'i address he lilted bis bat and re plied: "Ueneral, I am proud that Vormont has the hooor to lead the advance. Ireland may depend upon us to do our duty." l be advance was then resumed by the flank in the open rosd, and as Captain Cra non s company passed Richard's house and were descending a bill toward the line, they were surprised by a sharp volley from sotnu Canadian trnops, whose position hud beco concealed. Tbe fire was returned by fie Fenians, and quite a sharp fire was kept u; for some time. The Canadians were posted behind rocks and trees, and had of course tho advantage of the boys in green. It IS reported nno reman was killed and Uapt. Cranon wounded in the thigh. Tbe skirmish was witnessed by quite a number of citizens. United States Marshal Foster and Deputy Marshal Failey took command tng positions partway up tho bill, and were under fire all tbe time. About one o'clock, when O'Neil hud gone to the right of his command. Gen. Foster bad bis close carriage brought near tbe position and ho mediately arrested General O'Neil by virtue ol tbe Presidents Proclamation. Tito Gen. said ho refused to be arrested, and had totco there to protect himself. The Mar shal seeing a lot of Fenians close at hand. threw open the carriage door, and with the aid of Faillf, thrust the Fenian leader into tho back seat, tho officials leaped into tbeir seats and the horses left in hot haste. The Genenl arrived at the Weldon House, In this villiiije. nt 4 o clock. O'Neil wjs soou alier arrigned before V. S. Commissioner Jacob M. Smaller, for violation of tbe neu traiity laws, lie waived examination, and u default of twenty thousand dollars ball. wn taken to Burlington this evening to be committed. 1 no arrest or lien. O'Neil has fallen liko a wet blanket on tbe Fenian and reports fiom the f i on t this eveniugsay they are oauiy demoralized. The Fenians fought well, but it is evident they were not rein- iorcea as ttey expected. There cannot be at the outside over . 500 men, whereas am. munition ror tour times tbat number bad been ptovlded. It is reported, many are on tbeir way back to St. Albans to take transportation for borne. The bait past six train Irom tbe south this evening landed here about 120 more men. who Immediately took their departnio. Unless the Fenians are at once heavily . reinforced the ronve. ment, as far as tb is section is concerned, will prove a very great fizzle. Later intelligence places the number ol killed at 2 and wounded 2. One of the killed is Lieutenant Murray, of Boiten, and the other a Burlington boy, name not anjrr. tained.
