An inquest was held this morning over the body of st mkn named Wm. W. Johnston formeriy of Johnstone county in this state, the verdict fit which was that he died a natural death. The man it seems died on the wharf, near Stokely's mill, on Sunday evening last, and the attending physician states the cause bf his death to have been from a congestive chill. He was engaged in bringing Wood-down the rivef for sale in the city.i His body has not yet been interred. Jno.iW.Hartnian, one of the-jurors, . disagreed with the majority in matter of inquest,1 thinking it a clear case of starvation, and it should have been so stated ' in rendering the verdict. The facts of his being part owner of the flat engaged in the' trade, and the testimony of the physician, ejjififlicts somewhat with the idea' of his dying from'want.

The American Fenians Buying Steamers and : Our New York Correspondence. New York, Sept. 2T. ' -The news by yesterday's steamer in regard to the dreadful fright of John Bull over the Fenian movement in Ireland has caused no little amuse ment here. But a fortnight ago the London Times was ridiculing the Fenians as mere shad ows and now all England is up in arms against them. The coast of Ireland is guarded by the whole channel fleet ; seventy-five thousand Eng lish soldiers have been placed under command of General Sir Hugh Rose, who blew Sepoys from cannons' mouths in India and who is expected to dispose of the Irish in the same style ; Donald McKay, th shipbuilder, has ben consulted by the government in regard to laying torpedoes to Fortunate ' The recent peril in' which General Grant was placed by the displacement of a switch on the In dianapolis and Cincinnati Railroad, seems to have Deen the. result, of an infamous attempt on the General's, lifer The .Cincinnati Gazette of the 28ih irist.; skys: The president of the road, H.

It was found that some infamous scoundrel, as wicked as Booth but witt less courage, had bro ken' the lock from the sw tch and turned the latt te'r with a view of - throw ing the train from the traok .Fortunately, theLwork was bunglingly PH tq this fact theescape of the train frcni being smashed is due, the locomotive and tender having, as described, kept the track,1 and; thus prevented the car containing the general - from going over. - - It was a narrow escape, ' and 'while the public will rejoice that this dastardly attempt on' the.life of the Lieutenant-Gfeneral failed, they win regret that there is little probability of find ing the scoundrel who would plunge the nation into-mournuig a second time for another of its great and valued men. . , - ; t ...

' , ; f I confess that all these preparations for the suppression of the Fenian rebellion excite m vohder. Why under the sun don't England let Ireland go ? How can she expect any sympathy from the civilized world in this attempt to coerce a brave arid noble people T All that the Fenians ask is to be let alone ; and why can't the British government let them alone 1 Of course the Uni ted States will observe a strict neutrality during the contest ; but if we should send the Fenians guns, ships, provisions, ammunition and umforms that will only show how very strict our neutrali ty is. If we remonstrate with England and tell her, that she ought to allow Ireland to set up an independent government, our advice will simply be given in the interest of peace. Ah ! Mr, John Bull, it is a poor rule that will not work: both ways, and I soon hope to see your rules applied to yourself. - . Meanwhile we are all absolutely ignorant of what is really taking place in Ireland, Whether ; the Fenians have risen aqd what progress they are malppg are unknown here. The British gov ernment has taken possession of the postoffices and opens all letters. It has likewise suppressed the Irish People, a Fenian newspaper , in Dublin ; so that we have no means of knowing what is going on, except through. English sources. From the best information t can gather) however, the Fenians have not yet commenced to fight, and these movements. on the part of England are merely preventative. It, is reported that paper money and bonds for the Irish Republic are be-, ing printed in this city, and that eight steamers, capable of carrying one thousand men each,liave been purchased for immediate use by the Fen ians in this country. TheYe may be something serious in "these rumors, or there may not.
