Wishing you all the success which you so highly deserve, I am, sirs, Yours, very truly, Tiinuma from the French. After having; played on the Piano of Messrs. Knabe & Co., It is Impossible not to bear testimony to their qualities, which have acquired for them the eminent reputation which they enjoy. The Pianos of their manufacture, on which I have piayeu, are exceeuingiy remaraauie tor i-ueir qutuiuco of tone. The Bass is powerful, without harshness, and the upper notes sweet, clear and harmoniously mellow, (chrystalin, and I do not hesitate to express in regard to these instruments my entire satisfaction, and to declare that they are equal, if not superior, to the best manufactured in Europe or this country by the most celebrated makers.

For great power and roundness of tone, combined with that peculiar sweet and singing quality, so often found wanting in Pianos, they are really unsurpassable, and in touch everything that can be desired by the most brilliant player. Wishing you every success, I remain, lours truly, uaneuaui& Mebsm. Wii. Knabe & Co.

Considerable excitement was occasioned iu this city to-day by the announcement that the Fenian, Deasy, who with Kelley, was rescued from the custody of the police at Manchester some weeks ago, hud been captured by the police. Late yesterday afternoon they overhauled a man near Waterford, Ireland, who answers completely to the de scrlption of Deasy. Other strong circumstances warrant the belief that the authorities are not mistaken. The prisoner, under a strong guard, started for Manchester this afternoon, where he will be confined with the fellow prisoners of Deasy for recognition. The Government officials are very active and vigilant. Yesterday afternoon two Americans, named Barroe and O'Neill, were arrested at Glasgow and Imprisoned. Papers found on their persons Indicate beyond doubt that they belong to the American wing of the Fenian organization. The motion recently made In the Courts of the Queen's Bench for the change of place of trial of the Fenians Burke, Casey, Shaw and Mullaney from Warwick to London is likely to be granted. FROM WASHINGTON. Outrages Committed I'pon Inspectors. Washington, Jan. 10. Letters have been received at the ofllce of Internal Revenue, dated Tullahoma.Teun., Jan. 6th and 11th. and from T. U. Urallords, Key. enue Inspector, and Jos. Ramsey, Collector for the Third district of that State, giving Information in regard to the daugercxpe rlenccd by them in attending to the business regarding illicit distillations, and with particular allusion to a case which has but recently occurred in that district, where a party who wus in arrears to the Government for taxes due to the amount of $1,000, had re slated the collector from making a distrain upon him for the Indebtedness. It appears that after the distraint had been accomplished, and the collector and Inspector had left the premises, they were followed and attacked by the party whose property had been distrained, accompanied by others, and that the inspector was shot and wounded, and other outrages were perpetrated. It doc not appear from the correspondence that the offending parties have yet been molested either by military or civil process. A letter from the Inspector, dated the 11th lnst., reports that since his being wounded several illicit distilleries were in operation in the Third District of that State. Inlorma-tion hus also reached the Department of the resistance made to the revenue olllcers In the discharge of their duty In suppressing Illicit distilleries In the neighborhood of Kuoxvllle, Tennessee. Vigorous measures have been instituted by the Commissioner of Internal Revenue for the arrest and punishment of the parties committing these outrages. NEW YORK. New York, Jan. 1G.
