A correspondence took place recently.. between Mr. Seward and Lord Stanley, through the medium of Mr. Moran, Amer 'lean Charge d'Affitira at London, and Mr. Thornton, the. British En koy at Washing ton, on the subject of the Fenlan prisoners, Warren and Costello, who are naturalized citizens of thel i nl ited States. T..° c-rresl pondenco has been published in full in the London journals, but the main - - points are simply these :.Mr. Seward writ. a to Mr. Moran a request to read the letter to Lord Stanley, to the effectthat the House of Rep reseittat:ves ef the United States-had pass ed a resolution requesting the President td take Such measures as shall appear proper to seenre the'release from imprisonment of Mesrirs. Warren and C, steno, convicted sad sentenced in Great Britain for words and amtv-ai , oken land done in this country, by ignoring our naturalization- laws, and to take such other measures as will secure their return'to our flag, with such ceremonies as areappropriate to the occasion; and he, therefore; urges the unconditional release of these - prisoners. "Lord Stanley, in his reply, through Mr Thompson, says: "As regards the impthooment of Messrs. Warren and Costello, I have to point to you that the allegation on which Mr. Seward's request for their release is founded, viz: that they Were convicted - and sentenced for words spOken and acts committed in the United States, rests on a total misconcep tion of the facts in the case, These prison.' ers were convicted of treason and felony, at the Commission Court for the county of Dublin; *held in October last. The most prominent overt act insisted upon and proved against them be ing, that they come to Ireland and cruised along the coast with intent to effect a landing of men and arms in Ireland, and in order to raise an insurrection against the Queen. The evidence adduced against these prisoners in the course of the teal of words spoken and acts committed by them in the United States, was given in strict accordance with the rules of war, as part of the testimony connecting them with a Fenian conspiracy which had-existed in the county of Dublin, in which county the Commission Court sat, and which conspir acy had for its object the subversion of Her Majesty's authority and the establ.shment of a republic in Ireland." , -A letter from Syria in the Post says the Turks have lately committed another act of vanda ism in Crete, which should not escape the notice of civilized Europe and America. The olive trees, heavy with the crop which promised to sustain the half starved Chrlatians of.the heroic, Isle, have been entirely destroyed, that the women and children may be forced by famine to yield to , the Ottoman power. The Com mander-ip-Chief has also issued an order for the heads of families to bring back to Crete all refugees under penalty of confis cation of their lands and effects.
