FOREIGN NEWS. 
News from England to the 28th of February 
has been received. To inquiries in the House of 
Commons on the 23d, whether any communica¬ 
tion with the United States Government relative 
to the Fenian movement had been made, Mr. 
Gladstone regretted that the subject had been 
brought up; the British Government had no 
knowledge of any proceedings to justify repre¬ 
sentations being made to the American Govern¬ 
ment. He believed that public opinion in the 
United States condemned the movement. It 
would be indignant to remonstrate so long as 
no public act was committed amounting to a 
breach of the neutrality laws. The House of, 
Commons lias voted £6,000 a year to the Prin¬ 
cess Helena, and a marriage portion of £30,000. 
Prince Albert is to have £15,000 a year after be¬ 
comes of age. Further arrests of Fenians in Eng¬

2,437 over the preceding week, und 3,848 over 
the number reported two weeks previous. The 
police in Ireland arc active in making arrests of 
Fenians. Five Irish-Amerlcans were arrested 
in Dublin on the 28th. Their names are ThomaB 
O’Brien, Michael McGenn, Thomas Doharty, 
Brougham .1. Durne and Jeremiah Farrell. An 
Imperial ukase has been Issued in Russia which

The Prevention of the Cattle IMm-«m*. 
A bill to amend the act to prevent the 
spread of foreign disease among the cattle of the 
United States, has recently passed Congress and 
become a law. It provides that the Importation 
of meat, cattle and the hides of cattle from any 
foreign country into the United States, is hereby 
prohibited. The provisions of the act may be 
suspended as to any foreign country or parts 
thereof, whenever the Secretary of the Treasury 
shall officially determine and give public notice 
that such importation will not tend to the intro¬ 
duction or spread of contagious or infectious 
diseases among the cattle of the United States. 
The Secretary of the Treasury is authorized, und 
it is ids duty, to make all necessary orders and 
regulations to carry the law into effect, and to 
send copies of the same to officers and agents of 
the Government in the United States and foreign 
countries. The President is authorized to declare 
the law Inoperative (alter thirty days’ notice) 
whenever he is satisfied that no danger exists of 
the introduction of infectious diseases from 
foreign countries among the cattle of the 
United States.

A murder was committed in this city on the 
evening of the 8th lust. The victim was Jonathan 
T. Orton, a lmckman by occupation, who was a 
worthy, respected citizen, and about 50 years of

his own bam on Union street, while Jn the 
act of “taking care” of his horses. The deed 
■was committed about half past seven o’clock. 
Mrs. Orton not seeing any light in the bam aft er 
her husband had been absent from the house 
some twenty minutee, became somewhat alarmed 
as well at his tarrying as the absence of the light, 
which she had a few minutes before noticed 
from a back door. Proceeding to the barn, Mrs. 
Orton found her husband lying on the Hour witli 
his head and faee’covered with blood and insen¬ 
sible, produced, as she supposed, by the kick of 
one of the horses. Assistance was procured and

summoned. It was found that the poor man’s 
skull and face had been dreadfully crushed by 
blows irffllcted with some heavy substance—Dint
