The Fenian Difficulties.
The Philadelphia Circle of the Fenian
Brotherhood met at their hall last evening,
and elected Mr. Michael Caville and Mr.
James Monaghan as representatives :to the
congress to assemble on next Tuesday, at
New York.
. .
The following preamlile4tid resolutions
- were also unanimouslyplolted:
Whereas,We the membs of the Phila
delphia Cicle of the Fent& Brotherhood
lave witnessed with extrude regret the dis
csrdant elements whichi*thave recently
divided our counsels and attempted to divert
the attention of the Brotherhood from the
grand object for which it was formed, viz :
the rescue of our native land from the thrall
dom of a foreign monarchy and the estab
ment of an'lrish Republic, based on the
grand principles of liberty as taught by the
founders of the American Union;
And whereas, In view of the coming ses
sion of the Fenian Congress, it is fitting
that we should express our opinions on the
question at issue, which we have arrived at
after due deliberation consistent with its
importance. ' •
_Resolved, That we, in common with most
of the Brothers oethe' Order, were of the
opinion that the new constitution of the
Brotherhood, adopted at the Philadelphia
Congress, was modelled after the Constitu
tion of the United States, vhich, in cases of
impeachment of the President or Vice Pre
sident, require 'the impeachment to be
made by the House of Representatives ' and
the trial by the Senate; and we learn with
much surprise that the Senate of the Fenian
Brotherhood presume to follow the rules of
despotic governments, and act as accusers
as well as judges and jury. And we recom
mend to our delegates, in the congress to
be assembled, to endeavor, if they find that
the Senate has by any trick invested them
selves with any such power, to amend the
constitution so that its meaning may be
more consistent with the rules of a repub
lican form of government.
_Resolved, That we protest against the
recent action of the so-called Senate of the
Fenian Brotherhood, and regard their con
duct in spreading before the world, through
the press, a tissue of falsehoods, unsup
ported by any facts whatever, as a repre
hensible and traitorous attempt to injure
the cause and bring the organization into
disrepute.
Resolved, That we cordially approve of
the action of the President, Col. John
O'Mahony, in Ailing a Congress of the
Brotherhood, to meet in New York, on Jan.
2d, 1866, to inquire into and investigate the
cause of the present troubles, and inflict
punishment on the guilty parties; that we
regard the disposition ,shown on the part of
the so-called Senate to oppose the assem
bling of the said Congress as an evidence of
their desire to evade such an investigation,
and thus prevent the members of the Fenian
Brotherhood from obtaining a full and fair
understanding of the causes of the difficulty;
and we earnestly request our brethren of
all the circles throughout the United States
to co-operate with us, whether they agree
with us or not, in sending delegates to the
said Congress, so that the said investigation
may be impartial and satisfactory.
Resolved, That we heartily approve of
Col. 0' Mahony's course; in all respects, as
faithfully representing the true objects of
our mission.
Resolved, That we repudiate any action of
Tames Gibbons, of Philadelphia, as a so
called Senator; that we have long regarded
his connection with the, Brotherhood as a
misfortune, believing him to have been con
nected with it purely for personal prodt,and
that his offer of a reward 0f.51,000 dollars to
- any nun who would prove that he induced
him to become a member of the organiza
tion was sufficient evidence of his useless.
ness as well as faithlessness to the cause.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 27. —Hong Kong
advices to October 20th, have been received,
being sixty-two days later than those pre
viously received. The steamer Wautah was
reported captured by pirates, while on her
way from Shanghai to Foo Chow. Piracy in\
Chinese waters is on the increase. Foreign '
relations with China are quite ont of joint,
owing to the mandarin worshiping policy
which characterized the policy of Sir F.
Bruce. The district lying southeast of Pekin
has been ravaged by troops of a, bandit
cavalry body of one hundred and eighty
mounted rancheros, who made a raid to
within two hundred miles of the capital.
A force was sent out after them, but they
made good their escape. The last strong •
hold of the rebellion in the province of the
ICangsi is reported totbe evacuated. The
insurgents, it is added, retreated to Fukeia.
The Mohammedan rebels at Fung Kann, in
Shensi, had surrendered, and were sla.ugh
teredto a man.
Intelligence from Japan respecting foreign
affairs is very satisfactory. The quarrel
between the Tycoon and Prince Nagato has
been settled. A steamer had been an
nounced to leave Yokohami, direct for Suez,
the inducement being the conveyance of
silk worm eggs. Silk seems to be plentiful
in Japan, but scarce in China.

THE UNITED STATES OF COLOMBIA.-
General Don Eastorgia Sal Gariras was in
troduced to the President by the Secretary
of State, and delivered his credentials as
Envoy Exttraordinary and Minister Pleni
potentiary of the United States of Colombia.
He made the following remarks on the oc
casion :
"Your Excellency— The Government of
Colombia, solicitous to foster and encourage
the friendly stipulations that have formed
the matter of special treaties between the
two nations, has lately conferred upon me
the character of Envoy Extraordinary and
Minister Plenipotentiary near the govern
ment of your Excellency. The feeling or
perfect understanding and cordiality whicu
the two countries have reached, the increase
of their mutual commercial transaetious,
and their topographical and political condi
tion are worthy of special consideration.
For this reason I heartily congratulate my
self on placing in the hands of your Excel
cellency, as I do, the autograph letter of the
President of Colombia according to me the
mission to preserve add render advanta
geous a friendship that rests on such legiti
mate interests, and to present my respectful
deference to your Excellency; hoping that I
may continue to deserve your confidence
and benevolent consideration."
To which the President replied as follows:
"Gtotera/—lt was with sincere regret that
I recently received your letter of recall. I
need not say,therefore, that it is with sincere
satisfaction that I now receive the letter
which accredits you again as Envoy Extra
ordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary ot .
the United States of Colombia to this Gov
ernment, I renew on this oocasion my
fdrruer assurance of friendship and good
will to your countrymen and to your C3llll
try, and of parsonal esteem to yourself."
POSTAL AFFAIRS.—The Post Office De
partment, has awarded contracts for service
on forty routes in Virginia and West Vir
ginia. These routes, for which offers
have been made since the regular biddings
two mouths ago, will cover nearly the
whole of those States not then am arded
with immediate postal facilities. The mail
service in North Carolina is in greatly in
creased demand, numerous fifers being
made, and to-day upwards of thirty routes
were let. All the service willgo into opera
tion on New Year's day. Contracts for
service in South Carolina, Georgia, and
other Southern Suites, are also being dis
posed of. In the appointatent office corre
sponding efforts are progressing for the re
opening of the post offices in every Southern
and Southwestern Slate. The nutnber of
such decisions may be set down at two
hundred per week. Yesterday Virginia,
Louisiana, Texas, Kentucky and Tennesse
shared largely.
Tnl INDIANS.—Recent reports concern
ing the disposition of the various Indian
tribes with whom the Government has of
late entered into treaty compact, represent
a favorable aspect, and perfect confidence
exists of a secure and lasting peace hereafter.
The parties who made the attack on the
Butterfield mail coach, a short time ago,had
not been advised of the treaties which had
been made. An excellent profile portrait of
the President. designed for distribution
among those of the Indian chiefs who
observe strictly the character and obligation
of their treaties with the Government, has
been executed on silver by Mr. Paquet, and
is pronounced a work of great artistic skill
and merit. There has been since the forma
tion of the Government, a periodical appro
priation for the above object, and it is a
significant fact that there is no knowledge
of any chief who has thus been favored ever
having broken the treaty obligation.
THE LA ST OF THE REVOLUTIONARY
HEROES. —Only two warriors of all those
who participated in the war of the Revolu
tion, so far as known by the Commissioner
of Pensions, remain alive, namely: William
Hutchings, of Penobscot; Hancock county,
Maine, aged one hundred and one years,
and Samuel Cook, of Clarendon, Orleans
county, New York, aged ninety-nine years.
Only five widows of Revolutionary soldiers
draw pensions from the Government at a
yearly amount of two hundred and ninety
three dollars.
A RAILROAD IN JUDEA.—Two French
engineers, pupils of the Ecole Centrale,
have just started for Judea, in order to sur
vey the line of railroad in course of con
structien, and part of which will soon be
thrown open to the public. We shall soon
hear (says an English journal) of little boys
shouting on the platform of the Bethlehem
Station, La Patrie, Journal du Soir, Le
Moniteur, Morning Star; while at the
Capernaum terminus, Guinness's stout and
Yorkshire hams will invigorate travelers
on their way to Jericho.
THE FRACTIONAL CIIRRENCY.—The new
five-cent fractional currency will be issued
next week. About f;'80,000 worth of defaced
and mutilated currency is destroyed, by
burning, per day, and $50,000 worth of it is
printed; arrangements are nearly completed
to make the amount of the latter equal to
•the former.
Ix compliance with orders issued by Corn
modore Shubrick, President of the Light
house Board, the light-vessels belonging to
the Upper and Lower Cedar Points, in the
Potomac river, have been withdrawn from
their'stations for the winter. Due notice
'will be givensof their replacement

SHOULD HAVE
Spencer's Patent Flour Sifter,
For Sifting Flour, Meal, Buckwheat, Sauce and a!]
other articles requiring a sieve.
STATE AND COCTNTY
It is one of the most useful inventions for domestic
use ever offered to the public. The flour is sifted to
one-quarter the time (and much better than by any
other process) by putting the flour in the top of the
Sifter, then, by turning the crank, the Mont passes
through the sieve with great rapidity. Clean, very
fine and light. This Sifter has no India rubber
rollers to grind up the dirt such as bugs. worms, files,
But sifts all articles and leaves the dirt remaining
in the sieve: the Sifter is made of tin, is very neat anti
easy to keep clean It is the only sifter now in use
that gives SATISFACTION. Every Sifter is warrant
ed to give satisfaction. Be sure and ask for Spencer's
Patent Tin Sifter.
