Tne lamp is intended to be of unusual appearance, and to give s very brilliant light. The mechanism of the pro tector is strong, but even a blow on the top of ibe safe will disconnect the supply of gas and put out the light. The same result wonlo be effected by any tampering with the door or the pipes. In large cities; Where safes are numerous within small areas, it is cen 1 emplated to employs special watchman who would, of course, immediately detect the absence of the external signal.

Deputy-Surveyor Parker has also been re moved, and Robert Cathcart appointed in his place. There are indications of a general removal of subordinates. - Mr. Fulton was the last of the supporters of Congress In the Baltimore Custom house, and the above subordinates were all of the same class. Considerable interest is manifested in the mercantile and newspaper world as to the telegraphic, contest between the old Associated press and Mr. Craig’s new organization. The coarse of the American in refusing to submit to the exclusive orders of the old association is highly approved, and the superiority of thA despatches furnished by the new association generally admitted.

I.—The Congressional Committee to investigate the Cotton and Sugar frauds in the New York and* other custom-houses will, on Monday, ask leave to remove the seal of secrecy from their proceedings. It is rumored that their re port will involve annmber of high officials. From the Dry Tortngas. The following interesting report has been kindly furnished to the United States and European News Association by the Secre tary of War of the refutation of the charges of inhumanity against officers at the Dry Tortugas: The officer sent to investigate the charge contained in the article in the New York World concerning the treatment of prisoners and soldiers at the Dry Tortugas has just returned and made his report. The following is the concluding portion of it: "The conduct of the officers in each in dividual case, mentioned in the World, has been grossly and maliciously misrepre sented, but this is not to be wondered at, considering the course of the report imme diately after the appearance of the article in question. A search was made in the quar ters of the Chicago conspirator, Gren fel, and among his papers was found a draft of the same letter that had appeared in the World addressed to Bradley S. Johnson, who. it is presumed, forwarded it to the World for publication. Grenfel is represented as very unrelia ble, self-willed and rebelliously disposed, and would be anywhere else a dangerous man. His word cannot be depended upon even in the commonest transaction of life, and having been deposed from the position of gardener, he has since ei deavored to place the officials in a very unenviable light before the world,by trump ing up charges against them for inhuman treatment of the prisoners in their charge. The charges, which,taking their foundation from the most trivial circumstances, were enlarged and exaggerated to such distorted proportions, as only his' low and sordid mind is capable of. Bis diary ''shows that he has been in secret communication with the rebel in the Saulh, and that he has been led'to believe that strong measures.would be taken to effeot his re lease. His game wasthentodrawattentiou to the Dry Tortugas, and thesupposed atro cities there committed, and through the in strum en tality of theiniluence thus acquired, secure his release, and enlist in his favor the sympathies of the public. He has mis erably failed. I visited the cells of all the prisoners there, and their oleanly and or derly appearance spoke well for the care and vigilance exercised by ■he commanding officer, for the comfort and well-being of the prisoners. The pri soners receive the same rations as the en listed men of the post, and are neatly and comfortably dressed, and the labors required of them are of a very light char acter. [Signed] P. H. Sheridan, Major General U. S. A.” The Fenians. Buffalo, Dec. I.—The Stephen’s wing of the Fenians was organized here last evening and money and arms was donated for'the cause in Ireland. Roberts, and some of the Fenians present, thought the most feasible work was the in vasion of Canada, and opposed the sending of arms and money to Ireland, where they had no confidence in success at present. It was stated that - officers of experience were required to be sent to Ireland. One man donatedahorseand buggy worth 8300. There is some feeling between the two wings, but it is kept down and all seem; animated to work in any way that their object can be obtained. , 3:45 O’Oloofe.
