The yacht race around Long Island created quite an-excitement yesterday, and news from the fleet was eagerly sought for. The steamer Elm City, at ‘New Haven from this city, passed within five or six miles of the fleet yesterday afternoon at six o'clock, then off Fairfield, thirty miles from Throgg’s Neck. ‘The Rebecca, Una and Madgie were five miles ahead of the others, the Rebecca apparently first. The Pavorita was full twelve miles behind the others. ‘The first direct news which has been received from the detachment of the Utah army sent into New Mexico, under command of Captain Marcy, for the purpose of ohfifining a supply of animals, is pab- lished in-our his morning. It is in the shape of a highly intereatag letter from a correspondent, dated on the 15th of May, at Cashela Powdre creek, on the South Piatte river. Captain Marcy, on his way to join headquarters, left Fort Union on the 15th of March, but halted on the route,in obedience to orders from the War Department. He encamped at Fontaine-qui bouille, a tributary of the Arkansas river. The Fontaine is an extraordinary mineral spring, gushing up from the earth, falling into and overflowing a buge basin worn in the roek. The land around it was staked off as a claim, in due form, by an enterprising eamp follower. The command having been reinforced, Captain Marcy moved on, on 28th of April. His next camp was pitched ona prairie mound. Here he was suddenly visited by a tornado which hurled across the plain with such violence as to stampede over three hun dred bead of cattle for a space of fifty miles, the animals running before the wind. Four men lost their lives. In ten days after the party crossed the South Platte to the creek at which the letter was written. The report of the scenes of the march and in camp are full of interest. From Washington, by our special despatch, we learn that the British government abandons not only the practice of the right of search or visit, but also the principle, and that the whole matter will be promptly considered and settled on a basis to pre- vent trouble hereafter. It is also stated that there is no doubt the French government has disavowed any connection with the schemes of Mons Belly in Central American affairs. The War Department had received information from Gen. Johnston, but it contains nothing more of interest than has already been published. The violent tornado of the 21st inst. was followed by several exceedingly pleasant days; the weather ‘being clear and a cool breeze constantly blowing: On Thursday, however, the heat began to increase, and yesterday the city fairly smoked under the fu- rious rays of the sun. In the afternoon the mercury got up ae high as ninety-five degrees, with very lit- tle wind to temper the atmosphere, and nothing to make the heat endurable; the only thing people could do was to talk about the yacht race—about the coolest subject that could occupy their thoughts, ‘This warm spel! will belp to fill the watering places with New Yorkers, and will set those who can’t go in the country envying those who can. Ho! for the White Mountains. The Business Men's Prayer Meeting, 175 Broad- way, was closed yesterday in consequence of the premises about undergoing some repairs. The Rev Dr. Bethune, Dr. Hague, Dr. Spring, Mr. Wetmore and Sergeant Johns, of the Police Commissioners Office, delivered addresses. in the Court of General Sessions yesterday, before Recorder Barnard, colored man named William A. Hilton was tried for the murder of Mary Stevens, alias Hilton, and after the witnesses were examined and the case given to the jury, he was acquitted. ‘There were no points of interest contained in the testimony that are not already known to the public. Hon. Lot M. Morrill was on Wednesday nomi- nated a4 a candidate for Governor of Maine by the Republican State Convention assembled at Augusta. We have dates from Buenos Ayres to the 29th of May, furmished by Captain Chase, of the bark Dawn, arrived at this port. The difficulty, between Buenos Ayres and Urquiza remained unsettled. It was believed that the peo- ple would agree to @ reunion with the other pro- vinces if Urquiza would resign the Pemidensy. Much excitement existed in consequence of Urquiza’s be ing detected in an attempt to influence the munict pal elections. The schooner Plorde Salto, while on her passage from Montevideo to Buenos Ayres, was wrecked on a sunken rock in the Rio de la Plata, and of thirty-six passengers, twelve were drowned Madame Anna Bisbop was singing with mach suc cess in Buenos Ayres. Business continued pros trated. Advices from Turks Island to June 8 report the weather fine and salt making prosperous; 2,000 bushels were sold that day at Sc. per bushel. The islands were healthy, and greatly enlivened and benefitted by the visits of Boglish and American veasels of war By the bark Princeton, arrived at this port yes terday, we bave advices from British Gainna to the Sth inet. From the Demerara Hoyal Gazette we learn thet the Colonial Legisiatare bad adjourned it had imposed no new taxes in place of the Regis tration tax, but had increased some of the old ones. Resolutions repeating the application for Sepoys for agricultural laborers aad for the public works were | cbange in prices, while the sales wore toa fair extent, chiefly to the domestic trade. Wheat was steady, with sales of Canadian white at $1 04 a $1 15; white Western at $1 07a $1 16; Milwaukie club at 88. a 93c.; Southern white at $1 26a $1 27, Corn sold at 7lc. a T4c. for West- ern mixed, and a: 76c.a78c. for white Southern. Pork was heavy, with sales, in lots, of mess at $16 50, and prime at $13 25018 60. Sugars were firm, with sales of abou, 1,200 hhds. at full prices, especiaily tor fair to prime gsocery goods. Refining qualities were also Im fair de mand at very steady prices. Coffee was firm; sales of 3,00 mats of Java were wade, to arrive coast wise, on pri- vate terms, with some bags om the spot at 15%c, and Laguyara at 11%c. Freight engagemonts were moderate, and rates were ucchaoged. A vessel of 900 tons was engaged to load on the West Coast for London on private terms. Cotton, Sugar and La®or—The Poilttical mation on the three great politico-economical questions of the day—cotton, sugar and labor— which will be found worthy the attention of the political leaders and etatesmen not only of this country but of the world. of the two great staples of tropical industry, and of the supply ef labor for their increase, are exercising an extraordinary influence upon all the political issues of the day. International |! as well as domestic questions are shaped by them. The Spanish slave trade is the true cause of present irritation between the United States and England; the French free slave trade is a subject of discussion in the British Parliament, and of uneatisfactory communica- tion between the two courts; the British coolie slave trade proves the hollowness of England’s obtrusive philanthropy ; and the slavery ques- ion im this country isa subject of constant fanatical exhertation and fire-eating recrimina- tion. But everywhere—in Englend and in France, in America and in Asia—the erroneous theories of the humanitarians sre waning before the great and palpable facts that the civilized world must have cotton and sugar; and that as yet the white man has not demonstrated his ability to produce them with- out the aid of an inferior organization that can resist the beat of the tropical Gelds. ments of England and France to endeavor to create rivals to the United States im the produc- tion ef cotton. India and Algeire have failed to become so. Their views are now directed elsewhere, and China, Guiana are each looked to with hope. From the firet of these regions we entertain no fear of 8 serious competition. thet China does not produce enough cotton for her own consumption, and therefore can never become a great exyorter. genuity of the Chinese have beom directed for ages to the necessity of prodacing a textile stayle, end they have been forced to resort to the pro- duction of a coarse silk by worms fed on oak leaves, Whether from this staple cotton will find a pow- erful competitor when China shall be opened to the world we cannot yet know. Attention is now being directed to Africa and Guiana, the arguments in favor of the latter of which are ably stated in another column. all the other requirements of labor, capital experience, means of transportation, 4c., whieh are to be provided for them, to enable them to become competitors with us, there is also an other great question to be solved. United States the cotton plaot is an annaal plant; in the true trepical regions it is pe- rennial. These conditions change the qualities of the product, and we think ditadvantageously to the fibre grown within the tropics. us it would seem that the palm for the produc- tion of thie staple is to pass from America to Asia. The multitudinous labor of the East, assisted by a little guano from Pera, bas pro- duced astonishing results in Mauritius and the Isle of Bourbon or Reunion. these, wifh only 1,000 square miles of superficial extent, and @ population a few years since of only 100,000 people, exports to-day one-third as NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, JUNE 26, 1868. carried. A bark with 240 Africans, and a steamer with 336 Coolies had arrived. Of the latter eighty- five died on the passage. Our cerreepandent at Kingston, Jamaioa, writing on 26th of May, states that property was rapidly deteriorating in value during the progress of the agitation between the free labor philanthropists and the planters wanting hands. The rejection of the late immigration act by the home government pro- duced a fall of twenty per cent in land prices. Some estate holders were about to import East India cooties on private account—a practice which is legal and aided by government money. An official report on the state of the mining districts is most encou- ragiog. Sugar had been low during the week. The island was tolerably healthy, but the heat of the weather very oppreasive. A shocking accident occurred at a Masonic cele- bration at Wellsville, New York, on Wednesday last, by which some forty or fifty persons were in- jured, some of them seriously. After listening to an oration on the occasion, the people had adjourned toa large hallfor dinner, and some seven hundred had entered the room, when the floor gave way and @ portion of the crowd were precipitated beneath. The fioor above at the same time fell, and a quantity of farming implements stored therein fell upon the struggling mass. Fortunately no lives were lost. A “Reform Convention” assembled at Rutland, Vermont, yesterday. Abouta thousand persons— abolitionists, spiritualists and free lovers—attended, the spiritualists predominating. ‘Resolutions on spiritualism, anti-slavery, marriage, maternity, the Bible, free trade, &c., &c., were introduced, and speeches made by Mrs. Ernestine L. Rose, Henry C. Wright, and others, James McKee was hung at Boston yesterday for the murder of the Deputy Warden of the Massachu: setts State prison about eighteen months ago. Jean Baptiste Destorges and Marie Annie Belisle were also executed yesterday, in front of the jail at Mon- treal, Canada, for murdering Catherine Prevost last winter. the sales of cotton yesterday embraced about 1,000 a 1,200 bales, closing firm, but with less activity. We quote middling uplands at 123¢c. per ib. Flour was without these two great etaples is intimately connected with the question of the organization of labor in countries where dissonant and un- equel races of men form the communi- ty. It is the growing necessity of cheap cotton and suger that is mining the founda- tions of Exeter Hall in England, diminishing the violence of the anti slavery humbng here, and bringing the governments of both France and Eng!and to tbe renewal of the slave trade under other names, but Identical in the prinei ple of involuntary labor. The French trade in negroes for Guedalupe and the British trade io Chinese ooolies for Cuba are identical with the old fashioned slave trade, disguise them how they will. Our Mauritius contemporary says that we errin classing the labor of the East Iadia coolies there as an involuntary servitude, though once it was so. A mew code of labor bas been introduced there, it says. We sbould be obliged if our contemporary would send usa copy of their laws regarding coolies, and would answer us this question— Can a coolie, bound to labor for a series of yeare, sit on a jury for the trial of a British planter ‘in Mauritius? The necessity of regular and systematic lebor in the tropics is fast revolutionizing the politi- cal aspect of this great question. The only substitute now proposed by the British humani- tarians, since the undeniable failure of their free labor theories in the West Indies, is to crowd the British and French islands with population until the accumulation of men in barrow spaces shall reduce the wages of their labor to starvation point. If this were attain- able everywhere, it would be only a supplying of cheap tropical labor by a far greater degree of human sutfering than is to be found in the institution of American slavery. But it is un- attainable. The British and French slave trades are only palliatives and not remedies for the demand for lebor; and are more inhu- man than the slavery of a negro bound for life, in whom the master possesses an interest of preservation. These political questions of the world are fast separating themselves from the fallacious theories of the humanitarians, and are shaping themselves more in accordance with the material laws of a common benefit, Toe Removat or Ex-Pauswent Monror’s Remains To Vincnia.—The several committees of the State of Virginia and of the city of New York, im conjunction with the representatives among es of the Monroe family, though they have not definitely made their arrangements for the removal of ex-President Monroe’s remains to his native State, have substantially, we un- derstand, agreed upon the following pro- gramme, to wit:— 1. That in the intervat to the 3dof July the remains of the ex-President shalt be quietly exhumed, and removed to some private resi- dence in the vieinity of Fourteenth street, offi- cially under the care of the city authorities of New York. 2. That on Saturday, the 3d of July, the said remains, under the honors of a civic and , military procession, shall be borne down Broad- way, and thence to the steamer Jamestown, shartered in bedalf of the State of Virginia for the purpose of conveying said remains to the city of Richmond; and that in the military part of the procession the escort shall be the Eighth regiment of the New York State mili- tia, while the Seventh regiment, or Nationa} Guard, shall bring-ap the rear. & That a guard’of honor from the- Seventh regiment shall be detached to the steamer Jamestown, in addition to the civic commit- tees from Virginia and the city of New York, that will directly accompany the remains of" the lustrious dead. 4, That the Seventh regiment (excepting the guard of honor specifed, and such members as- may be unable to leave on the day indicated) will go on board the steamer Alabama, and thus- accompany the Jamestown to Richmond. We think that this will prove a satisfactory programme in every particular. It will be tatisfaetory to the relatives of the deceased, if carefully managed; satisfactory to the patriotio ‘citivens of New York; to the Virginians here and at home; to the imilitary, and-all concerned: ‘That part of the programme whioh includes the accompanying escort to Virginia of tae Seventh regiment—which wil! be represented by at least five hundred citizen. soldiers, ae good as the best in the world—is the crowning feature of tho whole affair. Thoregiment have generously provided their steamer on their own account, and have volunteered to pay their own ex- penses. But the citizens, the military andithe municipal authorities of Petersburg, Richmond, and other places on the James river, have promptly shown their appreciation of these proceedings of our National Guard, and we are | quite sure that their reception at every point, from Hampton Roads to the capital of the Old Dominion, will be a welcome to be remombered for a lifetime. Nor will this be all. Thene will be something more than the ordinary incidents of a holiday excursion in this reunioa of the descendants and representatives of the patriots of the Revo- lution from the North with their Seethren of the South, on the banks of the ancieat river of the Old Dominion. As in the fields of the Revolution, side by side with Monroe, the men of the North and of the South fought for our common liberties, eo this marked reuniea of their deseendanta and repreventatives over Monroe’s remains on the clase ground ef old Virginia, will leave a strong and abiding im- pression on the James river ond on the Hudson, North and South, in behalf of the bonds of union which bind us all together. In this view, the visit of our National Guard to Richmond will be as the visit of a regiment of peace makers disgaised in the trappings of war. Virginia, and her sons and daughters, will be proud to receive them, and New York may well be proud to rend them. It would be all the better for us, North and South, politi- cally, rotigionsly, commercially and socially, if the people of the two sections would only make the crossing of the dividing iine a gene- ral practice, as far ae convenient, in their cele brationsof the Fourth of July, with or without the remains of a hero of the Revolution. The Taxrarens’ Reronu.—It ie consoling to know that the property owners are fully deter- mined to make an effort at the coming election to reeeue the government of the city from the bands of the scheming politicians who now con trol it. The taxpayers’ party movement gets along flourishingly. Every day adds a number Revolution they are Effecting.

Judge Russell, who was present, acted as it was his duty and his function to act, and larg-ly contributed to preserve the public peace For this official action, which Judge Russell would have been blameable not to have taken, the defeated disturbers of the peace have laid, and a Grand Jury has actually found, indict ments against the Judge. A motion to quash them is to be argued before the Recorder this morning, and the public will eee how far the administration of justice is defeated in New York. By a singular coincidence, the finding of in- dictments against the most vigorous Judge of which the city can boast was al most simultaneous with the failure of the prosecution of the man who killed Paudeen. As usual in such cases, the jury disagreed, and were discharged, the prisoner going, for the time, unwhipt of justice. In due course, the man will probably be tried again, and the same farce will doubtless be repeated Tt has come to bean understood thing that juries will always disagree in capital cases, and no one who has had any experience in jary trials expects to see a conviction before the se- cond or third trial. The cost alone of such re- peated efforts to vindicate the laws—to say no- thing of the disastrous example of systematic impunity for crime upon the morals of a large section of the community—must in the end tend to discourage criminal prosecutions alto- gether. Those who seek the cause of the repeated failures of justice and of the outrages of which the indictment of Judge Russell is an example, will find it partly in the defective arrangement# by which the jury system is worked, and partly in the fatal predominance of the worst class of the community at the fountain of honor end power—the nominating and primary conven- tions. But a still more prelific source of rmischief is the paramount influence of the worst people in the city at the conventions of all parties. It is notorious that all nominations are bought and seld—the ‘tellers being the shoulder hitters, rowdies and refuse population of the Five Poimts and such localitées, These individuals wield a despotism over the city of New York and its inhabitants compared to which the despotism of the Emperors of France and Rus- sia is paternal. They hold in their hands the entire patronage of the city, and dispense it as their inclinations, their avarice or their sympa- thies prompt. Naturally enough, this class does not consider its position complete ofter the election. The shoulder hitters expect to be served by their creatures—the officials they have been the means of having elected. They expect to exercise influeng over every public officer and: every public department; and they calculate to use that influence for the acquisi- tion of money and the rescue of themselves and their friends from the hand of the law. Wor are they disappointed. Meny of the legal scandals which have lately been witaessed, most of the failures of justice which have brought shame on the criminal adminis- tration, were the natural consequence and the influence of the rowdy clase. That influence controlled: officials whose business it was. to crush it eut. It packed juries, and led some to acquit murderers, others to find bills of indiet- ment against the most faithful Judge the city has. You find it everywhero—tainting and de- filing the whole city government and courts-of law, from the station house to the court room, from the Street Department to the Treasury. The remedy for ail these evils lies in the bands of the taxpayers of New York. Whenever they ehall resolve, once for all, to oust the control of the city from the hands of the rowdics, as they can do, the trouble will be over. They poesess the power of electing whom they please to office. Whenever they choose to elect none but well: known men, men of standing and character, and taxpayers, who have a personal intezest in patting an end to the reign of im- punity and outrage now existing, New York will become as orderly and woll governed a city as there is in the Union. But till they do, it must be expected that things will go on from. bad to worse ; that the laws wilk become a byeword, and trials a farce ; that juries will regularly disagree, and the best jadges be subject to in- dictment for doing their duty ; that the whole adminiswation of justice and civic gowernment will be a disgrace and an opprobriam to the city and State. Yestow Fever—Pux Svsqvenasxa.—This vessel is about to be unloaded, her stores re- moved to the Quarantine storehouses, and her interior to be subjneted to an oxperimental method of disinfection. We have reason to be- lieve this is a most unfortunate procedure, and that it will end in very disastrous consequences, The Surquebanna has been lying in the bay for reveral months, while the weather was cool and tuitable for sueh an undertaking. Now it has become hot and sultry, the mevoury is standiag at from 80 to 95 degrees, and we must expect a continuance ef the “heated term.” therefore, manifestly apparent that the undertak- ing is ill-timed, and should at once be abandoned? Experience shows that infection lingers among the stores, clothing, bedding and furniture of any veseel which hes bad the yellow fever on board, and that it spreads from subsequent con- tact with fabrice containing wool and cotton, as well as from decaying animal and vegeta ble rubetanpes generally. these will endanger the valaable lives of all engaged in the work, and the removal aod storage of these substances at the Quarantine will form new sources from which the poison may be distributed. operations now going on in regard to the Sas- quehanna of @ most dangerous character, aod may end in the most fatal consequences to the inbabitants of Staten Island and this city. We call upon our authorities to interfere as once; the danger is imminent. kept where she is until cold weather, for even if ehe is stripped and overhauled the govern: ment will not be able to employ her before No- ice, where the process of disinfection would have been immediate and thorongh. The ap plication of ice to her inside, as proposed, will not disinfect what is landed from ber. No time, therefore, is to be lost in arresting the present action of the Health Officer, for great and irremediable danger is likely to follow it. Our duty to the public requires us to make this statement; in a few weeks the mischief may be beyond remedy. Ina few days, indeed, New York may be overtaken by the pestiience, its busi- ness destroyed and balf its citizens driven away. Why, then, should co unnecessary a step be taker, at this hot season, as to attempt the purification of a vessel which cannot be used for months to come, or land her infected stores amidst a dense population, a nucleus for disease, when, in all probability, these very stores will be condemned and sold? The subject is a serious one, and commends itself to the immediate con- sideration of the public. Free Love = Grry anp Counrry.—The pro- prietor of an up town mansion in this city, in which ® score of men and women and a few cbildren live together on the Fcurieristic pria- ciple, has written in one of the journals a long communication explanatory of the system by which the economies and tastes of the uni- tary household over which he presides are pro- moted and carried out. While the manager of this New York Agapemone disclaizas on the part of bis household all affiliation with free love principles, he for himseif boldly avows his admiration of them, and lauds them in the fol- lowing grandiloquent terms:— Be knows, then, (int 5 ems a fee lover, ome Bots slave lover—that I believe the institation of civilized mar- ovt own neighborhood, which has been sanction- ed by & charter from the Legislature, This olwb is componed of some of the wealthiest and most respectable citizens of our community—men of high charecter and standing, whose names will be a guarantee for the correctness of its turf proceedings, and its permanent success as an ae sociation. It has purchased the Centreville Course, Lowg Island, and is making extensive improvements there. When these are completed, and the standard regulations are carried into effect, the Centreville Course will equal im convenience and strictness any of the old eatab- lished racing grounds in Eurepe. The great desire te own fine and fast horses manifested by our wealthy citizens has produced its influence on breeders of stock, and there hae latterly been a noticeable improvement in the quality of the horses offered for sate. A really fine horse will command a high price at any time, so that cattle raisers have discovered it te be to their interest to breed none but the moet valuable animals. As an instance of the high prices paid for fast horses, we may mentiom the recent sale of Flora Temple to s Baltimore gea- tleman for $8,000. There are many whick would command the same, and some even atith higher rates, In the South the prises for bloeded stock are so high that Mr. Ten Broeck, as we mentioned, in his late trip there from Hagland to replenish his stable, found great difficulty im making purchases, the best horses being het® above his views. With a prospect of the ex- portation to Europe of our best trotting stal- lions, we may expect to witness otill more extravagant pretensions on the part of Americana breeders. feated in New York. Lov1s NaPoLeon AND THe NicaRaGua CANAL— The French government has denied in the most exprees terms that it has any connection or sympathy in any way, public or private, with Mons. Belly and the French speculators in Nicaragua Transit and Canul grants. We suspect it will be found eventually that the position of Louis Napoleon toward the Nicara- gua canal plans of Mons. Belly is precisely the same as that he holds towards Mons. Lesseps and the Suez canal projects. He believes that both would be advantageous to the world, but is not disposed to make the construction of either a political question. In politics he is jast now engaged with far higher ebjects, and in public works he thinks bis attention has sufficient employment in France, where he ia stilt carrying out grand schemes. As for Mons, Belly, he, no doubt, has pureved the seme course as that followed by Vanderbilt, Mor- gan, Howland, Aspinwall and others, who always pretend, in their Isthmus intrigues, to possess the confidence of our government and te be acting in accordance with it, when the government knows nothing about what they are doing. So with Mons, Belly; he bas, ao doubt, pretended to possess the confiience of the Emperor, in order to gull suck flats as Mora, Martinez and Rivas, and he hae succeed- ed completely. Tse Artantic TeLeGRars—AnticirareD Resorcises.—A few days will probably decide the great problem of the age—the practicability of telegraphic communication between the Old and New Worlds. Should it be solved in favor of science, the event should be honored:ia every y city and-town of importance enough to have a telegraph office established in it. No vietory ever achieved on land or sea will have beea so honorable to the genius of man, or so grand in its result, as this victory over time and space. While we have no doubt that it will be thus celebrated throughout the Unioa, we take for granted that St. Johns, in Newfoundland, and the good:old city of New York, will stand pre eminent on this continent in doing honor to the projectors of and all concerned in the enter- prise.

I be- petra fonds nga! sbould be as free as the one yatta on he ealls to the stand Shakspere, Milton, Bulwer, Mra. Norton, Queen Caroline, the Forrests, Dr. Nott and Charles Dickens, as witnesses—dead and living—of the wrongs of the marriage institution, and, inferentially, of the beauties of the system of passional attrac- tion—an experiment ia which received such a checkmate in the move of Capt. Tarnbull (omi- nous name) and his squad of police officers, some eighteen months ago. While passional attraction, and the right of loving whatever is loveable “without the im- pertinent interference of either State, church or public opinion,” is receiving such countenance and enlisting such advocacy in New York, a notable example of the consequences of carrying out the theory in practice is now being presented in the little town of Rochester, in this: State. There a miserable woman, the wretched dupe of such Pribune theories, is now on trial for her life, charged with the murder of her own hus- band, in conjunction with her own brother. The husband believed in and practised the doc- trine of Joving whatever is loveable unre- strained by the “impertinent interference of either State, church or public opinion,” and, disregardfal of the advice of one of the great free lovers of antiquity, he went about after strange women. The wife, on her part, carry- ing out the same doctrine, felt a passional at- traction toward the son of her mother, and gratified it, with the knowledge of the whole family. And then, as one crime usually follows on the heels of another, the guilty pair seduced into a solitary place the profligate husband, and there added to their previous incestuous crime thatof murder. Already the brother has been found guilty of the crime, and the wretch- ed woman is now on her trial. Here, ae we bave said, is a notable example of the results of this doctrine of free love, of which the proprietsr of the unitary. household up town declares himself the admirer and disciple, and would be apostle. We hold it up as a warning to the members of the unitary household and to all others who have been innoculated with the poison of “passional attraction.” Let them ponder the fate of these Rocheste> free lovers and seve themselves from the perils of a like impending destiny. Tue Turr—Rivatry Between Aarerican ano Enos Racens.—When, after the enormous expense gone to by Mr. Ten Broeok to contest with the English studs the Ascot and Goodwood prizes, his best horses were beaten, the uniniti- ated concluded that the question of superiority betwoen the two breeds so far as racing was concerned wae definitively settled: The owner of Pricress was not, bowever, a man to be discon- raged from a settled purpose by two or three failures brougb? about, in all probability, by the tricts and contrivances commonly practised by English jockeys Whilst he still entertained the most implicit confidence in the qualities of the horses which he had taken over with him, he resolved not to confine his chances of recovering hie diecomfitures to so small a stud. He ao- cordingly returned to this country and bid large prices for some of the best and fastest horses in the Union, and amongst others for Sue Washington (Liazie McDonald), Nicholas &, Charleston, Ruric, Minnehaha, Joccoseee, Bonnie Lassie, Nancy Clarke, Whale, Rupee, Planet, Stasher, Governor Wickliffe, Jack Gamble, Tar River and Shockoe. Of these latter he only succeeded in securing Charleston, whioh will no doubt give ® good secount of himself in proper time. With this and such other additions as he was enabled to make, he has again entered the field against the chompione of the English turf, running all bis old horses first, in order to show whet may be done with the American breed under the ad vantages of improved experience aad: training on English ground, and on the English method. Prioress he bas matched against Sir Joseph Hawley’s Beadsmaa, the winner of the Derby, for $2,500, and Babylon against Lord Chester- field's Telegram, for the same amount, both races to come off at Newmarket on the tlth and 22th of October next. The weights in both races are to be equa), but thare is a difference in the forfeits, the first being $1,000 and the second $250 The result, as may naturally be suppoeed, is looked forward to with great inte- rest on the other side, and the feeling will he more than reciprocated here, seeing the gratit> cation that success will afford to our national amour propre. There never was a period at which greater eflorts have been made to improve the Ameri- oan breed of ra¢ing borses than -at present, and at no time have first class animals brought such high prices. In fact, as wo have already stated in the case of Mr. Ten Broeck, money cannot Is it not, Tho handling of In short, we consider the There eppaare to be ro Poundation for the statement im soma newspapers that Jndge Roosevelt would be sens Minieter to Paris, Mr. Bee has been re-appointed Postmaster at Oweqa, This vessel should be fields, The selfish policy of the Hast India Company has hitherto prevented this, but it will prevent itno more; and the day is not far distant when the world will be supplied with refined sugar at three cents a pound.

This is the way to keep down the taxes and stop the frauds, always command its ohject—the owners of good horees being unwilling to part with them on any terme, Amongst the efforts being made to improve the breed of horses all over the coun- try, the moet important is that which has led to the organization of s new club for the purpose in New York.
