If the pretensions of the United States wore admitted the convention of the Straits should only bind the five great contracting Powers, The consequence would be that while the men of war of those Powers could not enter the Bosphorus and the Black sea, the fleeta of the other na tions could navigate there at their re.

Few of our citizens at all familiar with the course of bu eipees iu this city during the last thirty yoars can fail to remember Townsend Harris. Largely engaged in the for- eign and domestic trade as an importer and jobber of earthenware, his enterprise, activity and fidelity as 4 mer- chant were not more remarkable than his pablic spirit and usefulness af a citizen. While engaged in the conduct of an extensive business, Mr. Harris found time to give an carnest and efficient gup- port to the cause of education. He was elected a trustee of the public shoole for the Ninth ward under the old sys- term, and subsequently for several terms a Commirsioner for the same district, under the prevent arrangement for ‘the management of the schools. Twice elected President of the Board of Education, it was while holding that office be fret soggested the idea of establishing a seminary of learning of & higher grade than the common school, the benefits of which should be free to all scholars who had paseod with credit through the lower branches of our commen Rebool rystem ‘The suggestion of the Free Academy bad few advocates ‘at fret, and met with @ decided opposition, Mr. Harris, bowever, pursued bis object, and succeeded against pow- erful obstacles, sulely by hia own indomitable perseve- rance and energy, in carrying a bill through the Logigla- ture providwg for the moane of establishing Lis favorite hetitubon At the last moment of legislative action, when it was ap- peremt that the bill would become @ law, an amendment Plaunible in its terme, but well calculated to defeat the measure, Was \wtroduced, which was lo submit the propo- sition for the approval of the voters at the then ensuing election. Not deterred or disheartened by thie new dit. culty, Mr. Harrie accepted the ordeal and entered upon the contest for # popular approva! with the same real he had shown at Albany. Unaided by committees, or the assistance of the preae to any considerable extent, he en- tered into the contest with @ determination to succeed. All published opposition be met wader his own vignature. ‘Tickets and handbills were printed at his own expense, Hiis pen and bis voice were always ready to defend and to advocate this, which he regarded as the crowning act of his life. His success was commensurate with hit zeal and perseverance. The measure was triumphantly sus- tained by the popular vote. Mr. Harris then gaye the same apriduity and zea) to the plane for constructing the edifice and for organizing the imtelloctual department of the institution, for which he had #o #uccessfully labored. As soon as he had seen both completed and in all ree. pects ready to extend the advantages of the higher branches of learning to the cbildren of the people, with the same disinterested unobirusiveness that had marked his whole course in regard to this great public act of mu. nificence and benevolence, Mr. Harrie voluntarily retired from hie high offices as Proeident of the Bourd of Education and Chairman of the Committee on the Free Academy. This history of this \ustitution is very little known, and it le time that Mr. Harris’ connection ‘with it should be recorded as a simple act of jasuce to one whose career is worthy to be emulated by overs. Early in the year 1848 the new empire opened to our commerce on the Pacific attracted the attention of our merchants, and Mr. Harris determined t divert bie at tention to that region. Tie retired from the houre of which he was a pariner, purchased and freigtted, » lely on his own account, a (ine bark, au! @aile! i the momth ‘of May for California, After several years of con mercial vicissitudes occupied by him iu traversing the Paciilc Ocean, visiting ielands and countrice, storiug up know ledge and information for future usefulness, the year 1854 found him ip China, where he received from the govern ment of the United States the commission of Consu at Nivg-po.

Dr. Theodore Gaillardet, who was convicted of folonious assault and battery upon Mr. Hiram Cranston, propriewr of tho New York Hotel, succeeded in making his escape from an officer attached to the Court of Genoral Sessions, on Saturday evening, under somewhat peculiar cireum. stances. The facts in the case are briefly these:—Gaillar- et was confined in the Tombs, awaiting sentence, when officer Baker, of the above court, appeared befure one of the keepers with an order purporting to come from the Clerk of the court, requiring the prisoner’s attendance before the Recorder for the purpose of being sentenced. The prisoner was handed over to the offlcor, and that was the Inst the keeper saw of Dr, Gaillardet, ‘The announcement of the prisoner’s escape was mad known to the Assistant District Attorney, Mr. Sedgwick, yesterday morning, Not till forty-eight hours after the oc- currence took place did the officer communicate the impor- tant piece of information. The policeman’s story of Gail- lardet’s escape (for it isthe anly one we have got) runs thie way:—As the prisoner was on his way to the City Prison, after leaving the Court. of Sessions, he expressed great desire to pay 4 visit to a French restaurant in Fourth avenue. The officer signified his willingness to oblige the doctor, and thereupon the two took one of th Fourth avenue cars and proceeded to their destination. From the restaurant the doctor was allowed to go to his office to transact some private business, from his office to a drug store in Broadway, to settle some private matters also; from the druggista’ to ‘a millinery shop in the immediate neighborhood, and from there back to the restaurant in Fourth avenue, where the doctor had arrangod to dine at five o’clock precisely. Four or five gentlemen were awaiting Gaillardet’s arrival at the restaurant, and it was agreed on all sides that they bave “a time generally.” The officer was vited to be one of the »,and made himself perfectly ion iooach be wer Wenlng hie val ig time; nd valual jan ly he ate, drank and amoked as freely as any of » About ten o’clock Gaillardet rose from per table, and moments, left the room.

But at all events he chose to change his habitation, and took the favorable opportunity in question of ‘ing the very natural desire.

In delaying thus we fear Mr. Raker acted indiacreetly. ‘The Telegraphic Chess Match. ‘The telegraphic chess match between New York and Philadelphia still drags ite slow length along, but one even- ing more must finieh it. There is still every probability that the game will result in a draw, but the advantage, if uy, is on the side of the Philadelphians. They have one pawn more than the New Yorkers and a somewhat better position. One thing seems at prevent to be very certain, and that is that New York cannot win. ‘One remarkable feature in this game is the fact that although there have been but few pawns on each side with the rook for the past ten or twelve moves, yet every posi- ton required the most severe and accurate analysis. ‘Twea'y and even twenly-fve moves ahead bad to ve hooked or if at the end the New Yorkers’ or the Philadelphians’ pawn was nearest “queening.”” Ever; move, therefore, War exceeding! heentaces an will be eoen by any chess player who 8 over the annexed soore.

The laying of the shore cable was progressing slowly. Mr. Lever and adeputation from the Galway Steam Company, were in Paris with a view of obtaining terms foi transm/ss 0a of mails to the French naval station at Newfoundland. The genera! trade of Paris had improved, and from the provinces the accounts were also more satisfactory. Flour had been firm in Paris, but closed at a slight decline, ow- ing to the limited demand. Wheat was dull and lower, The various silk markets were firm, and the looms were in full work. In wines and brandies more activity were obse. vable. It is stated that the aseent of the Emperor to the prose- cution of Count Montalembert was obtained with difficulty, being for some time refused. The charges in the indict ‘ment are very serious, amounting to something like con structive treason. At Paris, on the 9th ixst., the three per conts closed at 78 65. Conferences on the subject of Mexico had been held at Madrid, between the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the ‘Ambassadors of England and France, and a semi-official Spanish journal says that euch conferences promise a satisfac’ ory €0.ution, ‘The case of the Jewish boy Mortara, who was abducted by the Roman Catholice, sti!! occupied considerable atten tion in Italy, and a letter from Turin says that Count Cavour had directed the Sardinian Chargé d’Affaires at Rome to remonstrate with the Roman government in the matter. The Progeian Staats Anzeiger gives the following list of the new Cabinet:—Prince of Hohenzollern Sigmaringen, President of the Council; Baron Flottwell, Minister of the Interior; Baron Auerswald, Minister of State: Baron Flei- nitz, Foreign Affairs; General Bonin, War; M. Patow, F’. nance; Count Auckler, Agriculture; M. Bertthman Holl weg, Public Instruction. M. Von der Heydt remains Mi- nister of Commerce, and M, Simons Minister of Justice. A change of ministry in Hanover was considered pro- bable. Jt was thought that the formation of a liberal Ca- binei im Berlin would produce some modifications in the governments of several of the smaller Gerinan States. THE BRITISH TREATY WITH JAPAN. ‘The more important stipulations of the treaty signed at Jeddo on the 26th of August lat are published. ‘The treaty, in the first place, engages that there — ball be perpetual peace and friendehiy between ber Britiea Majesty and the Tycoon of Japan. » that her Majesty may appoint a diplomatic agent to reside at Jed do, and the Tycoon a diplomatic agent to reside in London both of them respectively to have the right of travellin freely to any part of the empire of Japan, and ty any part of Great Britain; also either Power may ap point Consuls or Consular agents to any or al! the ports of the other.

From the Ist of January, 1872, they will be allowed to reside at Jeddo, and from the Ist of January, 1863, at Asace, for the purposes of trade. Al) questions of rights, whether of property or person, arising between them- selves shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the British authorities; if they commit any crime against the Ja- panese they will be tried and punished by their own an- thorities, and vice versa, Japanese subjects in the samg predicament will de tried and punished by theirs; but in either case, the British Consuls are to act in tho first in stance af amicable arbitrators, In respect of debts con- tracted on either ride, the respective authorities will do their utmost to enforce recovery, but neither governinent will be held responsible for the debte of ite sub jects.
