The warriors that have distinguished them selves on the gory 'fields of Canada, where they fought for the liberation of Ireland, are all athirst for more blood and glory, now that France and Germany are at war. They pro pose to - liberate Ireland by joining the - French and fighting against the Germans. The tri color has been raised in the streets of Dublin,and that is the signal for an uprising of the Ameri can Fenians. . . Precisely how this movement is going to effect the liberation of Ireland, is kept a. pre found secret among.tbe Fenian leaders. They do not•ofteir keep their military movements secret, as the history of the various:invasions of Canada shows. But this alliance of Fenian ism and France has a deep, .mysterious mean ing and purpose; which is,for the •present, to be sacredly guarded in the mailed breastsof the heroic leaders. There are, doubtless, import ant matters of detail to be arranged between them and Ole 'Emperor lialioleon,-_who. is, probably holding his forces upon the Rhine in check, until these are arranged, and the Irish legions come pouring into France to turn the tide of battle in his favor;should it be against him. Finnee, "aided by Fenianism, having con quered the Germans,. Fenianism aided by France, may then proceed to conquer-the English. This may be the programme ; of course it is only conjecture, for as we have said, the secrets of this stupendous alliance are kept most sacredly. But it must have a very depressing effect on King William and Count Bismarck and General Von Moltke, and the whole army of -the United German Confederation, to learn that the Fenians, who bave won laurels in so many bloody fights, theiradVersary. They had counted confidently on their being at least neutral. With ‘ the Feniqm taking sides, the war really does assume grand proportions. Now what will'llassia do? THE LICENSE SWINDLE According to the latest official reports, 549 tavern licenses have been issued by the Clerk of the Court of Quarter Sessions for the present -year. These licenses produce less than two hundred thonsand - dollars, or an average of fifty dollars apiece, while there are between four and five thousand taverns in the city that — take - outim - ficenses, 4d, of course, pay nothing to the State Treasury. if the whole Of these systematic swindlers .- paid at the - rate be the minority, the annual revenue would be nearly four hundred and fifty thousand dollars. But the law provides a graduated license according to the amount of sales. The sale or $lO,OOO, or more, requires lieenge of $.500. Bet Ween $6OOO and $10;000, the license is s2'so; between $O,OOO and $S;000, it is $lOO, and when under $4,00u it is' $5O. When it is considered that there are single establishments whose sales exceed $lOO,OOO annualy, and very many that reach !WOW, it is a very reasonable calculation that the average grade of the whole eight thousand taverns' of Philadelphia is, at least, of the fourth class, with a license of $lOO, or an a;,!-- gregate of eight hundred thousand dollars per annum, four times the amount actually re ceived by the State. It must require a large amount of pedury.on the part of tavern-keep ers, and alarge amount of ignorance or indif_ ference on the part of the officials concerned, be fore the whole line of. the liquor sales of this city can be pat do'wn at less than $4,000 for each dealer. :This is the first feature of the li cense swindle. The second feature of this infainoui ness of swindling the public treasury is enacted through the. direct agency of the ward consta bles. Although it is notorious that there are more than four thousand unlicensed taverns in Philadelphia, thes - 6 precious agents of the ille gal traffic in liquor, the ward constables, report that there are only two hundred and scrod y five in the whole city. • In the Fourth. Ward; for instance, the constable reports four anti censed taverns! and this is about a fair speci men oft the fidelity of these officials to their sworn Obligations. . If there were not so many other similar illus trations of the way Philadelphia ' permits her ' self to be swindled and imposed upon, to have her ordinances set at nought, and to set pre miums upon all kinds of official dishonesty and incompetence, this might be a cause of amaze ment. That the people should tolerate, year after year, a systematic plunder of the public revenue, which adds heavily to the taxes, while it encourages the worst. and lowest description of liquor-selling, filling our prisons and alms houses with thousands of wretched beings, to be supported at the public expense, is a striking proof of . the easy, indolent indifference which prevails in the community, even when the pockets of the people are being robbed of hun dreds of thousands of dollars. The facts of this . habitual robbery of the - • public treasury are familiar to the District At . • tOrliey, - to every judge upon the bench, to ever y officer of the law. - The suppression of this il legal traffic; both by those who pay nothing and those Who swear to only a fourth or a tenth' - of their real sales, would not 'be a dllll - tas,k, if the proper authorities thought more of official vows than of political votes. As a financial qUestion,it is of the highest importance that these eight thousand licenses should be • onestiv paid. As a moral and social questi • it would be of incalculable-benefit to enforce . . the license. laws. 14 or it would break up and drive out of the business many of the lowest and vilest grog-shops in PhiltOelphia, and bless their wretched enitoniers by making it a little more dipcult forthem to",ruinAbentselves, soul and body, with the horrible stuff which is deal t t, but at these dens. it Was suggested in these coldmns, sony,e,tion ago, that there would be great advsxdr Age i n a , change of the license laws,'so as to "give Phila delphia a more direct interest •,, n enforcing them. The proposition was rtade that the city should pay to the State,,r s u nne fiy, a fixed sum, say two hfindred'And-fifty — ihousand dollars, in lieu of the tavern licenses, and that the 'revenue from these. licenses accrue to the city treasury: 2. We should then have a direct interest in' its' . co , rdection, and our tax-payers would be ,merr.i likely to look to it that the present rasceally evasions. of the license were broketi:uP ,, ,:while•the, State would sutler noth ing by the:change. We hoped to see some such measure' as this introduced at the last session of, the Legislature, and we commend the subject, now, to our law-makers..for their deliberate oodsideration. The present system is a farce and a swindle, and the sooner it is abolished or reformed the better it will be for the whole community. , • CHEAP HOTELS.

This combina tion of attractions is so rare as to seem almost impossible. There are cheap hotels, but they are almost invariably- uncomfortable--and un -clean. There are - clean andeomfortable hotela, but they are conducted on a scale of luxury that-makes them anything but cheap. _ To " keep a hotel" has passed into a proverb signifying the capability of doing any difficult thing well; - and' the -- provetb - is-wisely Stated; for it is an extremely difficult thing 63 .1, keep a hotel" and make money out of it and satisfy its guests - at the same time: But we de not be -lieve that it is-impossible-to establish-a-class-of-- houses accommodating one, two or three hun dred people, in which there shall be no expen diture for show, either in furniture or bills of fare, where comfortable rooms, clean beds, civil servants, plain but well-cooked meals of - simple - variety, — but - of - sufficient quantity,-can— be furnished profitably for much loWer rates than now prevail. Thousands of individuals and families who cannot afford to pay the neces sarily high_ rates of fashionable hotels, and Who will not stibinit to the dirt anffdiscomfort of-what-are-called- the - "-cheap -housesi"-would spend their summers at the sea-shore, if they could thus have it brought within the reach of their limited means. It is easy to anticipate many of the obstacles in the way of such an experiment, but there are none of them un surmountable, and whenever the right sort of hotel-keepers inaugurate the movement, they will, find that it will pay them better, with far less outlay, trouble and risk than they are now subject to. THE RAtuwAy NUISANCE The Twelfth and Sixteenth Street Railway seems to have been destined to be a nuisance in the eyes of the public from its inception to its completion. This road, whose legislative history is still offensively fresh in the minds of the people, has been sold out, as was doubtless the original 'intention of the "Ring" that gut the bill through the Legislature, to the compa nies running immediately parallel with it, and Twelfth and Sixteenth streets have now been taken possession of by the new owners for the purpose of constructing the nuisance against which the people and the press of Philadelphia so earnestly and-so vainly protested, Like any other inevitable evil, the sooner it is done with the better for all concerned. But it almost seems to be a deliberate design on the part of these railway monopolists to give the people, and especially these residine in Twelfth and Sixteenth streets, all the annoyance they can. The construction of a streetrailWay, as it is usually built, is an extremely simple process, , and shodid be very raliid - brie. Wonld'xiiit . require the genius of Dr. Durant or General Palmer to lay down the entire track of this Twelfth street nuisance within a week. It would be cheaper for the builders, and far less annoyin'g to the citizens. But, instead of lay ing down the track, and having done with it, at once, the company allow the woik to crawl along at a snail's pace, blocking up miles of public streets with materittl, driving travel out of its way, and inflicting great discomfort and inconvenience upon the residents along the line. How long this state of things is to continue it is impossible to say. This whole railway project has been characterized by such a total disregard of the rights and wishes of the peo ple, that it is not likely that any special trouble will be taken to expedite the removal of the heaps of rails, timber and paving -stones that now encumber the public highivays: That it is a public nuisance, no one can reasonably deny, and as we watch the sluggish indiffer ence by, which it-is perpetuated, _we_ could al most wish, if it were not as ial,v-defying as the conduct of the railway monoPoliiits themselves, that the Twelfth and Sixteenth Street Railway might be taken in charge, as the Trenton Rail road wits by: a committee of the men and women of KenSington, in .

The circular :we print sets forth chief;the iguments in 'behalf of it in a brief and clear manner, and lwe presume tbe subject will bethoroughly con sidered at the convention in Reading. A cruel hoax was attempted upon the public, ;yesterday, through the medium of a forged :despatch, pnrporting to giie the intelligence of an explosion on bbard the Cape May steamer, 'ArroWsmith.: The . ‘ style of the telegram was 'such as to arouse immediate suspicion of its character; and none of the aftornoonTapers 'were imposed upon by it. But the rrinier _cam-current on the street, and much 4:iircietsv, was created among those. having !friends' at 3 Cape May,:Which was only allaye`bylbe a)r-' rival of the Arrowsmith at her usual hour. There should be an immediate and search ing investigation into this piece of r6eally im position.' The 'desioatch was, written' on a printed telegraph blank, but was With Ont date, address or signature; which was - I,enough to prevent its publication. It is said to, have been sent from the Continental. thotel, and we believe :that it passed over one of the wires leading froth that house. If this is true, the operator should be held responsiblefor the transmission, of a message withonksiguature, or date, wheffier the author of ibeiabriCat:ion can be detected or not.

The l'arliament of the North German states has voted an address to the throne, declaring that they do not hesitate to trust their King to conduct, at the eve of life, a struggle in which he joined when 'a:youth—a struggle that is now likely to terminate forever the attempts of France to shatter the German nation, which now on the field of battle will attain a unity never enjoyed before. Europe' is congratu lated—. that at last the Continent is delivered from the Bonapartist lust of power and the evil ambition which ever directed the Napoleonic aspirations, and that a healthy check will now be given to the vanity of the French nation. The address was voted amid the wildest en thusiasm, and the North German Union seems at this moment a unit for the war. ' FROM WASHINGTON.

Essex Railroad, on Wednesday evening. The engine IVlOntrose, while running as extra with two empty cars and at a speed of thirty miles an hour, was just passing Washington station when the switch man turned his switch so as to run the train over the embankment, and he did so just as the engineer was upon it, so no time was given to the employq3s to stop the train. The engineer and , Armen jumped and escaped with severe,broises, but theconduc tor, M. orford; Was " less fortunate; as, in jump ing, he severely dislocated his right leg, and sustained several severe bruises. The engine was badly broken up, but the train escaped with but little injury. The switch had been set right by the,• switch-tender just before the accident, but hearing a train ap proaching b seems,to have supposed it was wrong, and so altered it. Regatta.
