STEPH.ENS IS HEARD FROM. The Fenians seem to have been newly unsettled by a recent settlement. Mr. Stephens has been heard from, and in a Manifesto dated from the "Irish Repub lic," he settles, or attempts to settle, the O'Mahony-Roberts difficulty. A whim sical lecturer the other evening de scribed the Irish Republic as an institu tion that was somewhat scattered, hav ing its headquarters in New York and its other quarters lying around promis emously, so we are unable to fix the whereabouts of Mr. Stephens by the dating of his centrifugal fiat. We do not wish to aid in fomenting any new discords and dissensions among the F. 8., but we cannot avoid arriving at one of two conclusions, to wit: first, that the EtePhens manifesto is a bogus document gotten up in a spirit of fun by some wag, or by some interested • party for his own purposes; or, secondly, that Mr. Stephens has not the qualifications of wisdom and sound judgment necessary to fit him to be the leader in a great rev olutionary movement.. Assuming the document to be genuine, we find this disciple of the illustrious Finn McCool, the great original Fenian ,using language that is neither peculiarly elegant nor re markably dignified, and ' possessing more of Saxon emphasis and bluntness than of Celtic nerve and imagery. Ad vice to Col. O'Mahony to "smash" all opposition is certainly more emphatic than graceful; calling a faction whom a wise leader would endeavor to conciliate "shallow knaves" and "kindred car rion," whom he would "lash from him like so many dogs," may be strong, but it is scarcely dignified or judicious; while the advice to Col. O'Mahony to "cut and hack the rotten branches about him with out pity," smacks rather more of bitter partisanship than of wise and compre hensive leadership. We fancy that there will not be a very cordial reunion of the late conflicting elements when such epithets and denunciations are applied to the "Senate," to "President Roberts" and to the numerous rank and file who supported their side of the question in the great feud. We are informed by despatches from New York that on Saturday, Mr. Geary, the Secretary of the Fenian Congress, called on the Fenian Secretary of War for the purpose of seeing the original manifesto. After examining the docu ment Mr. G. is reported to have said, "My course is now fixed !" This remark is important, perhaps, but it would be more interesting and instructive if the gentleman had given a hint as to what direction his course was to take. Upon the whole we incline to the opinion that Mr. Geary was non-committal, just as sir Patrick O'Plenipo was guarded in his remarks whenever he found himself in a peculiarly embarrassing diplomatic scrape. "It is a matter that requires a great deal of mighty nice consideration," this cunning diplomat would say, and Sir Patrick always came out with flying colors with this safe remark. Mr. Geary seems to have taken a lesson in diplo macy from the distinguished "Irish am bassador" whom we have quoted. We have no faith in the permanence of the peace that has been doctored up between the contending Fenian factions, and we repeat what we have before said, that the impulsive Irishman is too apt to make a bad choice of leaders. It would be wiser for him to say with Merentio, "A plague o' both your houses," and making a fresh start selectneW men that will enjoy the confidence of all without incurring the hatred and jealousy of any. TOOMBS The Columbus, Ga., Sun and Times says that a gentleman in that city has re ceived a letter from that "distinguished Georgian," General Robert Toombs, dated Havana, Cuba, December, 22d. "The General was enjoying fine heth. He had been joined by his wife a\few days previous. They have abundant means, having exported and sold con - siderable cotton belonging 't o th e General. This information will doubt less be gratifying to the many friends. of the General throughout the country. 77 We do not believe that the informa tion will be so very gratifying to many people, even in the State of Georgia. Before the rebellion he was one of the most truculent and dangerous dema gogues of the South, and he did.more to drag Georgia to the fatil step of seces sion than any man in the State. On the 23d of December,lB6o,he telegraphed from Washington an address to the people of Georgia,in the course of which he said. "Secession by the 4th day of March should be thundered from the hitllotbox on the 2d day of January neat. Such a voice will be, your beet guarantee for liberty, quility and glory.”. cEE Toombs • was made Sec etary of State of the so-called Confede acy, and was afterwards made a briga ier-general,but neither in the cabinet no the field did he do any good service. e had vowed to, die for the Confederat cause; but iin stead of this, he cont 'lied to export cotton enough to give him and his family "abundant mean ." Under all the circumstances, we o not see how there can be "many frie ds of the Ge neral" to be gratified wit the informa tion concerning him. I . MEXICAN EMIGRATION. Maximilian has evi ently lent a i ns willing ear to the so ' tries of the Southern rebels who ha e taken refuge in Mexico, and is making strenuous efforts to realize their attractive pictures of an immigration from the United States into his dominiCns. Knowing the precarious nature of his position in Mexico, and wisely doubting his ability to ingratiate himself with the native population, he hopes to gain strength by promoting immigration from other countries, and particularly from the United States. We have no oonfidenee in any important success for. such schemes. Mexico offers too little attrac tion in its present condition, and our own Western country offers too mue,h to render any considerable movement of our population in the wake of such leaders as Gwin and Maury. The vast mining interests now open ing in our different Territories will, for years to come, prove an' irresistible at traction to those who, desire to seek their fortunes in new fields, and the best class of emigrants, both from Europe and the Atlantic and Central States, will be found making their way to these new sources of mineral wealth, rather than to the enervating climate and uncongenial institutions of Mexico. The accounts that reach us from the silver mines of Navada Colorado and Montana seem almost fabulous, and yet we have no reason to doubt their sub stantial truth. In the single district of Lander county, Nevada, three tons of silver ore are being turned out every day, and this is the result of a very imperfect development of the mines. Capital and labor are rapidly concentrating in this direction to such an extent that the in ducements which Mexico holds out to the industry and enterprise of the world are entirely thrown into the back ground. Maximilian will tempt very little immigration worth liavitig, so long as men can reap the rich harvests of wealth upon our soil and under the pro tection of the American flag. Of course there will be wild specula tion and numerous bogus organizations springing up on the sld basis of the great mineral wealth o i our Western Territories. This is the inevitable se quence to every new discOvery of sources of wealth. But there is also a substan tial well-considered concentration of or ganized labor going on, !between which and its counterfeits it is !not difficult for intelligent people to' discriminate. Through these organizations the hardy pioneers of a vast population are now pushing westward and a Fvery few years will show to the world 4 strength de veloped by this western way of ourgreat Republic which will., of itself, be suffi cient to enforce the Monroe doctrine in its practical operation oiler every foot of North American soil. NEW JERSEY To-morrow New Jersey takes her place fairly in the Union. The inaugu ration of that thorough Union man, Marcus L. Ward, as Governor of the State, will take place with becoming military and civic display. 'We welcome the regenerated State to the Union ranks, and expect soon to announce the perfec tion of ber work of regeneration by the adoption of the Constitutional Amend ment for the abolition of slavery. There is poetic justice in the fact that Marcus L. Ward, the friend of the sol dier and the Union,is, the new Governor of New Jersey, and James M. Scovel,the equally faithful friend of the soldier and the Union, is President kof the Senate. The selection of Mr. Sc' vel at the early age of thirty-two to the econd position in the State is an event hat has excited much interest. The D mocratic caucus tendered him their own nomination,but he declined it. He was the unanimous nominee of the Union Men, and his past career, as well as his o:minent ability, gives assurance that be will always prove faithful to the great principles for which he has so bravely contended. In another column we pit an extract from his speech accepting t e presidency of the Senate. It has the ight ring.
