The Secretary of the Treasury has addressed a communication to the Collectors of Customs of New Icork and Boston, with instructions to use every’ means to find out the names of the consignors of the deadly packages. The representatives of steamship companies are especially agitated over the affair, and have deprived O’Donovan Rossa of asnb-agency’ he held in the Allan Line. The city editor of the “National Democrat,” Illinois, states that the infernal machines were made in that city, and gives the name of the street, besides a reporter of the paper has been invited to an exhibition of the machines’ destructive power. The New York “ Tribune ” replying to the matter, says : “If the American authorities do their duty the Irish revolutionists will not be long able to plan their hellish scheme in America.”
