Robert Nourse, of this city, has been se verely criticised in Obio on account of a passage appearing in a report of a lecture entitled “John and Jonathan,” delivered by him at Sidney, Ohio, early in February, The Miamé Union, published at Troy, Ohio, quotes the objectionable passage, and suggests that wherever Mr. Nourse repeats the slander a coat ot tar and feathers should be hisreward. The report in question appeared in the Sidney Journal, which represents Mr, Nourse as using language reflecting upon the reputation of Indy clerks in the government departments in this city, When a Srar reporter showed this re] pas- Sage from his lecture to Mr. Nout at gentle- ‘man said that the report was made memory and Was garbled. What he actually sald was in denunciation of persons who uttered slander against the lady clerks in the departments; what he wanted was a system that would protect them from sueh slander, “I will give you,” he said, “word for word the Passage in my iecture as I deliver it: ‘I want civil Service reform for several reasons, the principal one of which is that there are several thousand lady clerks in the government offices in Washing. ton, concerning whom vile men are pleased to say owe their position ere I pause]—Now gen- temen, you may soon die; I may soon die; it may be that ‘your widow and my widow will’ have to sock employment from the government to keep the family—or it may be that our daughters will have fo seek such employment to support, the dear old mother until she joins us above. Now, gentle- men. 1 want such a change in the civil service that he who’ dares to breathe such a stain on thelr As stated in yesterday's Star, the third trans- Atlantic yacht race in nautical history will be started from New York next Saturday, if the wind 18 westerly. The competing boata, the keel schoon- ers Dauntless and Coronet, have been undetgoing Recessary repairs and alterations during the last month, and both are now nearly ready for the con- test, which involves speed, endurance and the Jadgment of the navigators. This race is the out- come of a challenge posted on the bulletin of the New pas ‘Yacht Club house on the first day of the year by R. T. Bi the proposed an ocean Contest tor ail americen host sbtooner, placed the and si entrance fee at $10,000 foreach Rested that, the winner recetve the whole pam sie de Cole, the owner posited. No sooner did Caldwell H. of the Dauntless, read this manifesto than he an- nounced his acceptance, and showed that he was thoroughly in earnest by taking immediate steps to put his boat in commission, “Mr. Bush had ex- pected at least six or eight other yachts Would be entered, and offered to make any altera- tions in his original challenge which would be Ukely to tempt owners of other keel schooners to Pick up the gauntlet thrown down by him. No others seemed inclined to enter the race under any circumstances, however, and so Messrs. Colt and Bush proceeded to complete arrangements, The yachts will start from Owl's Head at 1 3 on March 6, if the wind is westerly. The New York Yacht club’s Tegatta committee will give the starting signals from the tug Luckenbach. The finish will be off Roche’s Point, Queenstown har- bor, and the judges there will be members ot the Royal Cork Yacht club. If the yachts arrive at the Mnish line at night the officers of the Coronet will make their presence known by firing five guns and burning red magnesia lights, and those of the Dauntless by firing three guns’ and burning blue lights.

E. Bryant were adopted, These resolutions ‘state “that the only reasonable hope that the re- publicans have of breaking the solid south in the immediate future is in the sections where we now have a considerable white republican strength. light.
