In ordering his execution. Movement in the French Senate-The . United stater Responsible.. The French Senate held a sitting Tuesday, June 18, M:Troplong In the chair. On the minutes of the last sitting being read, Baton Dupin asked to be allowed again tecl ex press his concurrence in the eloquent 'engage . , Which the illustrious President of the Senate had given utterance to in the preceding sitting, and by which be so well expressed the sentiments of the Senate.and of all France on the occasion of the danger to which two Emperors had been ex posed, one being the Emperor of the French. But he desired that, to the expression of !these sentiments should be united the sympathies of I France for b. third Emperor, who also knows how to face death with intrepidity, and whose life is at this moment threatened by armed bands. It Is a great honor, continued the honorable Senator, for our soldiers who went to Mexico to have carried with them only heroism, clemency after victory, and every generous and civilizing idea. But it - would seem that in 'returning to their native country they have brought • away every virtue, and-that after them remains nothing to mark a country of civilization. It is of importance that from our higher Chamber a word should go forth expressing a wish that a great crime should not be perpetrated, which would be an indelible stigma on. the barbarians who might commit it. Hope must be entertained that the voice of humanity will be powerful enough to prevent it. Let us trust that the United States will strive to the last to prevent a misfortune like this; because it is upon that go yen:anent above all that the responsibility of it would rest. Such arc the sentiments which I de sired to express in the Senate. They are those of France, and will, most certainly, find a powerful echo within these walls, where sit so many gene rals who have not acquired more lustre by their valor in battle than by their sentiments of hu manity after victory. (General marks of ap proval], • • The - President-LThe Senate cannot - That - join - in the noble words just pronounced by Baron Dupin. Not only does the Chamber share his .emotion, but all k ranee feels as he does. The whole world knows sutlicientiv the sentiments of humanity and generosity of our country to prevent any doubt on the subject being entertained. [Re newed approbation.] The minutes of the preceding sitting were then adopted. Marshal Forey, detained at Nancy by the state of his health, excused him self for being absent from the sitting of the Senate. THE PAPAL CONVOCATION.

As the Mole of Gir genti, otherwise called Porto Empediale, and Licata, are two ports where most of our vessels touch at for ballatit of - brimstone, previous to their coming to Palermo or Messina to complete their cargoes; it would be of great importance to have the above facts published in our principal shipping ports, in order to caution shipmasters and owners that if they charter their vessels for tiny of the aforesaid ports they Will be liable, on their reaching Palermo or Messina, to fifteen days of quarantine, or even obliged to proceed to the Lazarettos of Meida or Cagliari, to per form it there.

Father I was arrested on the Ist of June, in company with Colonel J. Warren, on the bridge crossing the Blackwater, from Waterford into roughs). We were kept in the Youghal Bride well until the morning of the 4th, when we were sent to this prison—marched through the streets of both places, handcuffed, like felons. We are now held under a warrant from the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. and will remain prisoners, so long as the fears and purposes of the Government may require the suspension of the writ of habeas corpus, unless some actldn is taken by theauthorities or Govern ment of our country. We are held under suspi -clop of being connected with the "Fenian Con spiracy," so called, in this country . No evidence of any kind is shown, or charge made, other - than "suspicion," which is applied, as a general rule, to all Americans. I will place my case be fore the United States Minister at London. The .correspondence with Mr. Adams, and. his com munication whichmay become necessary with the State Department, must consume much time. It would be well for you to take immediate steps to bring my case before the notice of the people, and have the subject brought before Congress at Its coming session .n July. This is not exclu sively an individual case, but becomes a question of right involving the liberty of every American tatizen,that sets foot on this soil. I ask the Gov- eminent of my country—which 1, "ave faithfully served—whose laws I have never violated—to se cure to me that liberty which is my birthright, and of which I am now deprived, without any cause or plea of justification, by an authority. I do not recognize--a Government to which I owe no allegiance, and whose laws I have in no way infringed upon. My arrest fol low'ed so quickly upon my arrival - in this country. that I had no opportunity to find any of my re latives whom I intended to visit. My chances of being in Paris this summer are doubtful. I must be content to suffer the penalty of being an American soldier, with Irish blood in my veins, so far offending the majesty of the British law as to be found upon Irish : Soil. ' Your son, Wm.

O'Brien, one of the victims of the four-days' rioting- in July, .1863. The killing of Col. O'Brien was the most revolt ing act of that bloody period in the history of New_York city. He was engaged in the war as a Volunteer Colonel, but' appening to be in this city on recruiting service when the riot com menced, and the need of soldiers was the most urgent, he voluntarily reported ,for-duty-in put ting. down the rioters. On Tuesday, July 12, he led a battalion to'-.the upper part of the city; subsequently, in the afternoon, he went• alone, in uniform, among the lawless multitude in Second avenue, and was there brutally mur dered. The attack Was, first made on hint in a drug store at the corner of Thirty-fourth street. He was drugged out from there and over the Side walk, and was finally taken into it back yard, where all manner 6f torture was practiced:upon. - him by men and wornem...le lingered in an un conscious condition foimore.than five hours, and it was only by stratagem that the body could be obtained from the persecutors by the Catholic priests.
