Newroxrt, Sept. 11.—Those whe are familiar with the English Derby-Day declare that the steeple-chases which came off Saturday and Monday were vastly. suggestive of the British fete, as far as the appearance of the crowd,—that is, the festival or fete part of. it. And gay as Newport is, and full of festal appearance, it has seen nothing like these two days of the steeple- chases in point of the crowd and the general holiday-taking. The weather Saturday was not so favorable as Monday, though the clouds of the morning dispersed and the air and sky were - clear, but the wind blowing up from the north- west was not one of the Gulf-Stream breezes, and, coming as it did with all the stiffuess of a £ca-salter, it nearly took the hats off of most of the masculine heads, which some of the owners Were wise cnough at last to tie on with their pocket-handkerchiefs, giving themselves the aspect of an English traveler with a “puggery.”” ONE GENTLEMAN LOOKED VERY PICTURESQUE with some fair friend’s long blue veil twisted round his hat. What that fair friend did for herseif after such sacritice doesn’t transpire, for the way thut crimps and curls blew straight out like streaming pennants was something to see. And the color, not of the‘rose, but of the violet, that noses and checks took un was not a pleasant thing tosce. But the day was so much of a * success in every Way that the second day of the Tacus, Monday, brought out ancnormous crowd, won there partly by the fine start of Saturday, and: partly by the” perfect weather, which was ove of Newport’s perfect days of soft breeze and life-giving air, with a cloudless sky. In reading Mr. Henry James? description of the ** Derby-Day ” in the September number of the Galary, one gets an idea_how like the homo- encous quzlity of the Enslisn spectacle was tins of New England. James says in this arti- E* You get for the first time a sort of 1! of what. the London population really sof Ibhas pited itself ine carts, into omnibuses, into every possible and impossible species of trap.” . ‘And soon this oceasion of the stecple-chase of Monday, every conceivable kind of vehicle, trom a stylish laudau to a yexctable wagon, was. tu be seen going .to the course, 2nd, after a time, snugly stationed on the grounds. ALL TUC MAYFLOWER PaMILY WERE THERE . H AND NEAT, and they were jostled unceremoniously by the ily of Shoddys, and the honest and andependent groundlings. Lundaus, doy-carts, ‘T cirts, drays, Stanhopes, Victorias, phactons, barouches, “four-in-hands, baggies, new-iash- doned and old, and wagons and wagonettes of very description, together. with the old-fash- oned omnibus, some of which last, by the way, ‘were sent down from Providence to meet the «demand. The people came from New York, ‘and from Boston, and from Provideuce. and poured in from 2I!the outlying. towns in srest force, and not only were all the av le ve- Bicles hired by those who did not. have their own teams, but those who core too late, or Were too poor to pay the dollar for the omnibus drive, footed it over the dusty road, determined to Fee the stceple-chases. It wasa steat anda moiley sight; unlike the Enzlish Derby-Day in ‘ove particular certainly,—if we may credit Mr. James’ description,—and that, the clement of Jow vulgarity orrowdyism. The police declared ‘that it was ONE OF THE BEST-BEHAVED CROWDS that. they had ever seen. And an English gen- Ueman who was very familiar with the Derby- carried out this opinion by sayin that, notwithstanding the late lawlessness of our. strikes. he thought that the strong clement of self-respect which is ingrain’ in the American, and which nowhere showed itself 50 plainly to a stranger #s in our holiday crowd, was the great saving clement wi would control and rescue the Republic at any vital, threatening crisis. T suppose if he had declared the whole of bis saind he would have said thatin a country where every man feels, or may fecl, that he may become the President of the United States, or sume one of our political lights, through the “iree and equal” system, the feeling of uality is also ingrained and not to be thrown overboard or dissraced easily. But, from what- ever cause. the result Monday of ceneral good manners was something to be praud of. One thing lam sure of: that the great portion of the crowd were native New-Englanders, sons and daughters of the soil, and a goodly number from Rhode Island; and certainly if any people feel at they are as good as the best it is the native New-Englanders. Tu look at some of une special personazes,—there was Gor. Van Zandt, a handsome man driving a pair of high-stenping handsome grays, and .beside him was his hand- some wife, a matron who bears her honors well, and who some years 220 was ‘ ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL LAND’S GELLES. Mr. Nast, the Tom Nast. of artistic fame, was also there, takin’ notes,” no duubdt, fora sreat pi-iure or Harper's of the novel scene. “And Buimout, With bis maznificent turoout, and De Lancy Sane, af Yacht Club and coaching fame, und Msx Dafray, the French Minister, and all tue rest of the Newport summer mugnates, ‘re on the grounds, making it resplendent heir cashing liveries and coaches. And, the vecupants of these coaches seemed merry moud, J don’t think, on the whole, y enjuyed themsclyes half so well as the ntry crowd that came in their farm-wagons di varryalls. The coach people are used to and the new excitement of a 5 kition of the same tune, while to the country folk it was the event. of the senson. The outlandish talk which is miade so much of in stories purporting to be ctipts of Aterican life in the rural OF RHODE 15- excitement in watching the tine horses finel ridden by their owners flying at a break-neck pace over the course, and in the novel sight of seeing them take what we hear spoken of so much in English novels as the ditches, and then the vupposing wall. Mr. James, in his Derby description, confesses that he is barbarons enough to have forgotten the name of the win- ning horse. And as this is not a sporting rec- ord, I shall follow his example, if not in for- getting at least in ignoring what is only iuter- esting to sporting men, aud to those the record must be too prolessional for your, cor- respondent.

We were moving down the bay now, and it was pleasaut to stand at the window and take the cool night-breeze and watch the gliding lights on shore. Presently, two elderly men sat down under that window and began a conversa- tion. Their talk was properly no business of mine, yet I was feeling friendly toward the world and willing to de entertained. I soon gathered that they, were brothers, that ther were frum asmall Connecticut village, and that the matter in band concerned the veimetery.

So we talked it over, and I was for alay-outin the new simitery on the bill. They wa'n't unwilling, ifit wascheap.

Deacon Shorb waited it. Well, after he’d gone on about Seth’s wife overlappin’ his prem’ses, I’d a? beat him out of that No. 9if I'd ’a’ had to stand $2 extra, Iet alone $1.

There was no sneer, no obtrusive Jaugh, no making fun of the old-fashioned or untaught wars of their neighbors of the mo- ment. There was quict amusement in the eye and about the mouth now ard then, but it was ind’y and uot obtrusive. Very different was she acceptation of this homeliness by the yulear “ nouresu riche” people, whowereby no means unplentifal ou the grounds.

Aad thcir rude titters aud comment, whik: intended to show to those about them their superiority, simply marked their own vul- arity and shallow limit not only of brains but of experience and culture. Most of this little by-play, which to a philosophical’ observer was amongst the most interestint points of the day, was before the start” of the chase, in the preliminary getting-ready time.

The delights of nomadic flirtation were recent- ly signslly itlustrated by the experience of a youthful student of one of the colleges in this State. Whilein a railway carthis young man saw an unprotected young lady, and marked her for his prey. Taking a seat beside her, he began a conversation by afew powerful and convincing Teinarks upon the weather. The young lady, who was quite his peer in amiable silliness, at first answered him in able monosyllables, and finally yielding to the wiles of her new acquaintance, joined with him in devouring the seductive peanut and in trying her fortune with the prize-candy that cheats but does not inebri- ate—unless we may regard colic as an intoxica- ‘ton of the stomach. For nearly an hour this rareand radiant maiden, whom her parents uaincd Mary Jane, and his innocuous under- graduate whose name is charitably suppressed, flirted to their own immense satisfaction, and indulged in that curious though innocent amusement Known as “tee-hecing ” until the other passengers even wished that they were dexd. Finally, the young man felt that be must retire in order to chuckle in private and ease hi strained mind pv exultingly calling himself “2 wild young devil,” and he thereupon sought the smaking-car and painfully began the consump- tion of a mild Connecticut cigar. ~ His dream of bliss was soon interrupted by the appearance of the conductor, who abruptly demanded ‘that- watch.” Now, the young man bad no watch of any kind, and said so with ca clearness which did him credit. The con- ductor then explained that he had: stolen a young lady's watch, and that he must vome with him and restore it without delay. Red as a rose was he when he confronted the young lady, with his collar in the tight grasp of the conduct- ors hand, and timidly denica ler fierce ac- cusation that be was a pickpocket. Of course, the incident created immense excitement in the ear, and the young lady’s tears were accepted by everybody ‘as conclusive evidence of the truth of her charge. One old gentleman, who had been unable to read his newspaper in con- sequence of the prolonged ‘tee-hecings” already mentioned, remarked that a man who would force himself upon an innocent girl as the undergraduate had done would un- questionably pick pockets or perpetrate any other ,detestable crime. It was the unanimous opinion of the passengers that he should be made tu disgoree, aud should then be cither throwa from the train while in motion or should be tied hand and foot in th baggage-car and delivered to the police at the next stopping-plive. One Jarge man, with short hair and a partially Jeveled nose, took the ground that whut “thé fellow ” really wanted vas, in substance, achauge of head, and that he felt it his duty to provide him with a new head without the least delay. Meanwhile, the young man begsed for mercy, and implored the young lady to look in her pocket and see if she could not find the missing watch. The conduct- or, Who Was a married man, and knew that the female pocket is never used for wateh-carrving: Durposes. was so indignant at what he called the “check” of this suggestion that he called a brakeman to hold the miserable young inau, so that he could “go through him,’' as he oeta- phorically expressed it. The young man was ac- cordingly searched with great thorougiess, tut with no notable result save the discovery of a small comb, which he providently carried in his pocket iu order to be prepared iu case of a sud- den and profuse growth of mustache. When it became evident that the watch was not conceal- ed upon his person, it was decided that, he had either swallowed it or secretly dropped it out ot the window, and the conductor, partly in order to prevent the effusion of blood on the velvet cushions of the car, stopped the train and de- posited the younz man in a nice swampy spot. Precisely tifteen minutes afterward Miss Sarah Jane gave a joyful sbrick and cxtricated the watch from some mysterious locality mediately behind the front. of ler dress, which it had accidentally stipped. Thus w: innocence of the uulergraduate established, and he thereupon sank in public estimation from a skillful pickpocket to the more degrading po- sition of an unlimited idiot. HOWARD AND TIE NEZ-PER- CES. Wicked New York Sun. Gen. Toward sat alone in his guarded tent. He heeded not the wind, which howled dismally without, and he paid no attention to the dis- taut yells of the demouiac savages, as they danced around the encainpment, vainly attempt- ing with insulting taunts to draw the American Havelock forth to battle, He heeded naught, for his burning senge of injustice was taking form in eloquent werds. Tis rapid pen skipped impetuously to and fro over the paper; page after page fell fluttering like snow-tlakes to the ground till the floor of the tent was covered with white. The General was replying to the newspaper-criticisms on his conduct of the campaign. “if these gentlemen of the press,” he wrote, “knew the true character of the foe with whom J have to contend, they would haps_be slower to ridicule my’ policy. Chief Joseph is a wily, uudacious, and unscrupulous adversary. He unites — the comprehensive military genius of a Na- poleon with the dash of a Massena. Yet he does not hesitate to employ the most repre- hensible methods of aunoying me, and eludes pursuit by stratagems unknown to civilized warfare. My campaign must not bo judged by the ordinary standards, for his activity is super- human, his resources apparently boundless, and lus lack of principle wholly beyond belief.”” The progress of the General’s composition was interrupted by the entrauce of a breathless and agitated orderly. “Well,” said the General, after he had punc- tuated his last sentence. ‘The orderly touched his hat. ““Joseph’s forces are advancing on the outposts, yelling and swearing like devils!” “It is us [have written,” remarked Howard, sadly, “This totally unprincipled Aborigine dves not seruple to attack me even upon the holy Sabbath. Direct the Chaplain to go ovt and read to the enemy the fifth chapter of Mat- thew.” “T have conscientiously endeavored,” con- tinued the General. resuming his pen, botn by ineral and logical appeals, to bring” Joseph to acknowledge the unreasonableness of his at- titude toward the United States Government. and toward me, the representative of its m: taryarm.

We have from a correspondent a curious bit of information about the young Commander-in- Chief of the Egyptian contingent on the Danube. Though but 2¢ years old, Prince Has- san, son of the Khedive,is an exverienced soldier, and has already had his share of haps und inishaps. The young Prince received his ilitary education ‘at. Woolwich and Berlin, er which he occupied the oflice of Minister of Warto his father. . During the late war with Abyssinia he was serionsly wounded and made prisoner. Although treated with great con- sideration, King John, “to punish him,” as he pressed it; “for fighting against Christ- fans,” ordered that a Jarge cross should be tattooed on the back of each of the Prince's bands. ‘This was done; and wheu his wounds were healed the young olficer was released and returned to Cairo. Arrived at home, Prince Hussun consulted the best European as well as native physicians and chemists. and Copt svothsayers, ‘promising a large sum to any oné who should rid him of these mementoes of the Abyssinian King. Ad- vice was freely offered and experiments tried. The Prince underwent much suffering, but all in vain—the Christian crosses were indelible. In acepair he finally resorted toa Dervish for advice, and the holy man communicated a remedy which at last: had the ment of being: undeniably eflicacious. “Chop off both thy hands,” le said to the Prince; “better live without hands than wear for ever these signs of the infidel gi nm relished it but little, aud so remains to this day tattooed with the hateful symbols. This is why no one ever sces him without gloves. ° THE ART OF DYING GRACEFULLY. Indianapolis Heratt, There comes to us the story of the death of a beautiful woman in this city, whose mind was somewhat given to the contemplation of ° the styles. While she Jay sick she was particular ubont color and light and the general tone ot the room, and never reveived a yisitor without ared or bluc shawl thrown over one shoulder and part of the pillow, to keep her from looking “like a death's head.” She didn’t intend to die, and didn’t want to die. “It ‘was such a disenchanilug process,” she declared. When it was discovered that she must die, her husband broke the news to her very gently. She was. little distressed, but not much agitated. She had only one request to make. It was: “ My darling, don’t let that horrid Mrs. —— make my outfit. Hier fie are sicker and she over- trims terribly; ‘ides, she will be sure to spell woyrtle ‘m-u-rt-e-l? in the bill?” .

CONDITIUN OF THE LOAN MARKET TiHOUGH- OUT THE COUNTRY. ‘The widespreud anticipations of au active, not to eay etringent, money market this fall have not been realized. A careful perusal of our leading ex- changes shows that the same steady quiet exists at Cincinnati, Baltimore, San Francisco, New Or- leans, Boston, and other leading cities as are now observable in Chicago and New York. ‘The Courier-Journal, of Louisville, gays in its iesne of the 14th inst. : More paper was offered for discount by some of the jobbing branches, but enly moderate amounts were called for, and the aggregate demand for money wax not Inrge. ‘he proditce branches arc requiting very little assistance. Commercial paper of the best class was disposed of readily 2% 8 per cent, At New Orleans, the Picayune reporta that on Wednesday the demand for money (currency), if anything, was stronger, both in bank and on the atrect, but no change was apparent in commercial paper. The Evening Wisconsin, of Milwaukee, saya, Sept. 14: Business continues not alone heavy, bnt active, with 4 cuntinued good demand for currency from wheat-crowing sections. The demand for loans is also liberal, and rates of interest steady at S(G10 percent peranam, The continued shipment of wheat eastwardly a6 fast as 1t arrives tends to keep the money market-easy.s ‘fhe money market in Boston, according to the Atvertiser of that city, is as follows: ‘The woney market presents no new features of interest. The supply of luanable funds is still am- ple to mect all regulae requirements, and rates re- imam steady, there vemg notning tu the present re- lations of supply and demand to justify any ad- vaucc. Many of the banks, however, are antici- paling a more active market and better rates as the eeaxun advances, andare doubtless keeping their funds well in hind to be able to take advantage of any improvement which may be developed. ‘The Cincinuuti loan market is described by the Gazette as ** moderately acti without any mate- nal change in its tone, nor anything especially in- teresting outside of the regular routine of busi- ness. The demand for loans was fair, and discount rates were firm at 7@b per cent, all paper which stood the usual careful scrutiny being readily dis- counted at these rates.” ‘The San Francisco Chronicle, in its review of the corn market for the week ending Sept. 8, remarks that ‘‘business during the past week has been moderately good, although there has been no marked activity in any department. The figures of the Clearing-House make a satisfactory showing with those of the week before, particularly consid- ering that Wednesday last wes a holiday and that collection-day did not fall this time.” The Baltimore Gazette states, Sept. 13, that ‘general trade is certainly improving, and in all branches of business there is a fair degree of ac= tivity, and as a rule prices for the principal staples are well supported. There are, however, no spe- cial changes to note in the situation, but enerally the outlvok is satisfactory and encouraging.

It is also reported that grain has recently been taken from Indianapolis. to the seaboard at 20c instead of the published 28c. In neither case can rebates be obtained from Chicago. These and other discriminations are making our local mer- chants fond of railroad management with a ven- geance. ‘The superior quality of the epring wheat of the Northwest this year {s universally acknowledged. Asmall fact will prove more than a ship-load of assertions. A city miller has just received an order for 200 brls flour to be sent to Cincinnati— the first conignment to that city since the big fire. ‘A lot of long clearahave just been aold in Liv- ervool at 37s 3d per 100 bu, the quotation being 35sGd.

Bar- ley was weak under the fact of larger supplies, rye was casier, and corn and wheat firmer, with a good demand, though the receipts‘of grain were again rather large, with tne weather after the storm of Friday night. A leading feature was a good shipping inquiry for wheat, which caused unexpected strength in prices for future deliver, ‘The demand for dry. goods was undiminished. In addition toa liberal attendance of active buyers, the mails brought large orders, and the day's sales reached large proportions.

There was an active and lirm grocery market. Not fora number of seasons past have sales been of such gencroue proportions at this time of year, and as there is every sndication of 2 continued liberal movement, there is a cheerful feeling among job- bers. “Prices remain firm, especially for sugars, straps, molasses, coffees, and mice. ‘The tea mar- ket is working a little more in holders" favor. ‘The demand does not show any improvement, but a failing off m importations has resulted in an ad- vance at the East of avout 2c per Ib, and that fact has sensibly strengthened the feeling here.

There was no important change in the hide and leather markets, both. continum: active and unequivocally firm. Hay. hops, and broom-corn..were again quoted dull and easy.
