4 NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, MAY. 13, 1668.—TKIPLE SHEET. EUROPE. Restriction of the Power of the English Crown. Prince Alfred's Wound and Social Position. The German mail steamship Cimbria, Captain Hebich, which left Southampton on the ist of May, arrived at this port yesterday, bringing a mail report in detail of our cable despatches, dated to her day of sailing from England, Telegrams from Australia to hand in England stated that the New South Wales government offered £1,000 for the apprehension of each accomplice in the attempted assassination of the Duke of Edinburg. The royal Duke, recovered frm his wound, sailed for England April 4. A despatch from Melbourne of March 31, in London, says the Ministry has resigned in consequence of the Governor objecting to the Darling grant being again inserted in the appropriation bill. A new Ministry is being formed, The shipments of gold to England during the month of March amounted to 183,500 ounces, ENGLAND. The Attempt on the Duke of Edinburg’s Life— How the Wounded Prince Has Been Bene- fited by the Assassin—Feninnism and the Detectives—Speculations for the Derby— Progress to x RepublicmA Church Clergy- man on Disendowment. Lonpon, April 29, 1868, All the English papers state that the attempted ssination of the Duke of Edinburg has excited ‘sal horror and indignation. Until to-day these un feelings have been more oficial than popular; but the information published by the Colontal OMice to tleetfect that the assassination was planned here and that orders to, shoot the Duke were transmitted to the Australian Fenians by some Head Centre in Lon- don has fairly startled the Bnglish public, If a band of assassins, with emissaries in all parts of the world, is really in operation in London, who is safe It is, however, very adim- cult to believe this story. If the Fenians in London wanted to assassinate one of the princes surely they would have struck at the Prince of Wales, and plenty of opportunities were offered during his recent journey to Ireland, or here in London, where he may be seen every day since his return. As for the Duke of Edinburg his friends here believe that the assault is the best thing that ever happened to him. He will come home at once; he will be a hero; the Queen and the Prince of Wales, with both of whom he had quarrelied, will be reconciled to him and he will have another chance of redeeming past errors by a brilliant future, Of his difficulties with the Queen you have been informed, and it would be ungracious to return to the subject now; but still ig may be frankly stated that nothing but such an oc curre nee as the attempt at assassination would have made the Duke's early return agreeable to the roya) family. Many months ago, describing the Fenian outrage at Clerkenwell, 1 called your attention to the inem, ciency of the London police, and especially of the detective department, and showed that in several cases information of the utmost importance had been published in the HERALD, through its special corre- spondents, long before it was known to. the police, The London papers have just become conscious of these faults, To-day the Pall Mall Gazette calls for a Parliamentary committee to investigate the conduct of the detectives, and in an exceedingly bitter article another journal declares that “in the vast majority of instances the information obtained by the detec- tives is volunteered, and is not in any way due to the exercise of their own sagacity. Very often testimony of the most valuable nature is dis- dutnfully turned away from the central police office through the vanity, the obstinacy or the dulness of the officials; in many other instances the services of notorious liars are eagerly accepted and en paid. In fact, the favorite modern mode of proced- ure among our detectives seems to be to get hold of a most abominable weaver of igments—a woman a4 ferably—and instruct him or her to tell as many lies us he or she can and stick to them. Never mind the corruption and the fraud. There 1s the glory and there is the honor of having obtained a conviction and hanged one’s man. ‘There is the more substan- tial satisfaction of the blood money.’’ The fact that five out of the six persons tried for the Clerkenwell outrage have been acquitted has ted to this outburst. Barrett, who was found guilty and will probably be hung, is a very able man and made an eloquent and dignified speech from the dock. There is every on to believe tliat the alibi which he relied upon his defence was genuine, Burke, who ts now cing tried, asked for a jury composed of six foreign- ers and Englishmen, on the ground that he was an American citizen; but he offered no evidence of the fact beyond his passport and the request was bur- riedly refused, the court being anxious not to get in- at in the vexed question of American naturaliza- jon. The dead heat at Newmarket, yesterday, for the two. thousand guineas, between Formosa and Moslem, has created an immense excitement among sporting men, Rosicructan, who ran fourth, ts now a favorite for the Derby, and Moslem, who was unknown a fort- night ago, is now praised as a miracle of horsefiesh. if such an American ayer as Kentucky would cross the ocean these English cracks wouid ha’ mething to contend against; but although Ame ns do a great deal of betting upon the English races they do not seemed inclined to send over a representative horse since Ten Broeck’s time. In the House of Lords yesterday the Earl of Derby announced that Parliament was incompetent to interfere in any way with the royal peennres until the royal permission to do so had been obtained. ‘This figment of ancient tradition is denounced this morning by the entire press, which is never back- ward in criticising and restricting the Sovereign's power—another proof of my former assertion that England is now @ practical republic, with the Queen for a figurehead. ‘The Kev, Mr, Bellew, the most slognent pulpit orator in England, is the frst Church of England clergy- man to preach a sermon in favor of Mr. Gladstone’s resolutions for disestablishing the Irish Church. Mr. Bellew is as popular here as Beecher isin the United States, and it is to be hoped that he will soon THE TURF. Trotting at the Fashion Course. A trotting sweepstakes of $600, mile heats, best three in five, in harness, came off yesterday afternoon at the Fashion Course, between Isaac Pawlings' ¢hestaut mare Jessie, M, Rodin’s black gelding Glen Cove, Dr, Ogie's gray gelding Pepper's Ghost and Mr. Haslett's bay gelding Stag. The stakes were won by Jessie, four heats being trotted before the judges were willing to concede the race to her. She won the Orst and second heata, and was thought lo have won the third, but the judges in thetr discretion adjudged it a dead heat between her and the black gelding, who ran under the whip for over one hundred yards, com- mencing his running four or five lengths behind the mare, and when it was evident to every one that he could not reach her by any other means, and crossed the score two lengths ahead. The next heat, how- ever, settled the question effectually, as the mare beat both gelding and judges by several lengths, The trot was a very exciting affair throughout, with a pretty fair exhibition of speed on the part of some of the contestants, Mr. Haslett’s horse was distanced in the first heat, He acted badly, and did not seem tobe under the control of his driver, and conse- quently was struck out, In the third heat Dr. Ogle, finding his old gray had little or no chance of win- ning, prudently withdrew him, and left the contest to be decided between the black gelding and the Bashaw mare. THR HORSES, Jessie, the winner of the race, is a very fine Bashaw mare, got by Dr. Rich's Jupiter out of a mare known in her time as the Moscow Mare, and said to be a full sister of General Dunham's Moscow, and who was contemporary twenty-seven years ago with Beppo, Washington, Americus, Ripton and other ce- lebrities of that day. Jessie is chestnut in color, with white face, three white feet, white mane and tail. She has apparently derived her white mane and tail from her Moscow dam, who was marked in a similar manner. In other respects she has all the Bashaw characteristics, Glen Cove is a black gelding, sired by Smith Burr, out ofa Trustee mare. He is a very handsome horse, stylish in appearance, light in form, with-very good trotting action, but a very bad breaker. Pepper’s Ghost, an old white cripple, with all his legs booted and capped, was without a pearance 80 far as we could ascertain in relation to him. No doubt he has been a rattler in his time, but that was many years ago, even so long that his ancestors have been forgotten; but probably now that he is so hoary with age as to be nearly ghost-like, some of the equine savants will vote him to be a Messenger, as they geierally: do with every gray horse of commendable form and action. Stag, who was distanced in the first heat, isa stoutly built bay horse, with a somewhat irregusr gait and an obscure pedigree, When the polis opened it was directly perceptibi olls open was rect e) le that the black gelding wes the teeate. De ing nearly as much as all the others combined. There was not much done, however, in pool sellin; before the start, nora great deal afterwards, as it was evident that the favorite did not come up to the expectations of his backers. After the first heat the mare was offered at two to one against the field with fewsor no takers. The weather was favorably clear and the track in good condition. First Heat.—Pi rs Ghost th rst Heat.—Pepper’s Ghost won the pole, Jessie the second place, Glen Cove next, and ‘Shag the ont- side, The horses after three attempts got the word to f stageiing start, Stagg leading, who broke up as the word was gives le second, who also made a skip up, Glen Cove third, who broke up and reared and pitched provokingly, Pepper's Ghost bringh up the rear, ‘and he, too, left his feet before hegot around the turn. Before they reached the quarter | 4 they were strung out lengthily. At that point, w! cy was passed in thirty-nine seconds, Jessie ied si lengths, Pepper's Ghost second, half a dozen lengths ahead of Glen Ceve, who was two lengths in ad- vance of Stag. Going down the backstretch Pep- per’s Ghost broke again, and Glen Cove, too, three chances at the same game. At the half mile pole— time 1:21—Jeasie led five lengths, the gray second, six lengths ahead of Glen Cove, who was one length clear of Stag, the latter having broken up on the way. Nothing occurred on the Flushing end worth noting, except that the mare ey are the gap at every step, hen they came into the homestretch the mare was leading some four lengths, which she increased to ten as she reached the score, Pepper's Ghost pines second, three lengths ahead of Glen Cove, Stagg distancea. Time, 2:45. Second Heat.—The horses this time had a very even send-off, but Jessie was soon in front, the gray second, Glen Cove bringing up the rear. ‘The mare opened a gap of three lengths onthe turn, which she carried to the quarter pole, in forty-one second: Glen Cove second, three lengths in front oi mepnests Ghost, who seemed to be in difi- culty thus early in the heat. The black trotted very squarely down the backgtretch, closing the gap gradually, and at the half-mile pole was within two lengths of Jessie; time 1:22, e Pray was six lengths behind, and falling off out of the race. Going around the Flushing end the black still kept decreasing the daylight, and had just placed his head at the wheel of the mare when broke all to pieces and lost ten lenghts by the mishap. This could not be recovered on the last quarter of a mile, and the mare came up the homestretch very easily, winning by about eight lengths, the black having in- duiged again in his pranks on the babe home. ‘p> per’s Ghost was ten lengths behind the black gelding, and his owner, seeing that he had no chance to win, prudently withdrew him. Time of the heat, 2,47, Third Heat.—Gien Cove was one length ahead of the mare¢when the start was given, but he imme- diately afterwards broke up, and the mare went around the turn and to the quarter pole ten lengths in front of him, in forty-two seconds. The gelding, however, settled himself after that, and trotted steadily ‘down the backstretch, closing up the gap cautiously, and was not over five lengtha behind the mare when she cnet the half mile pole in 1:25. On the Flushing end the black.gradually drew up closer, and as they came to the three quarter pole the mare had only about a length and a halfthe best of it, and the backers of the geliing were offering seven against ten that he would win the heat, when he went on one of his flights, and when he landed the mare was four or five tengths ahead. He came on after her at @ rattling pace until near the distance stand, when his driver forced him into a run by the application of the whip, which he continued to use until he was ahead of the a and he ed the stand about two lengths in front of her. Nobody fora moment supposed that the decision o1 the judges needed consideration, as every one knew that the anare was entitled to the heat. After a few minutes’ deliberation, however, and much to the astonishment and disgust of ever reasonable and unprejudiced man on the ground, the judges decided it a dead heat. Time, 2:49. Fourth Heat.—Jessie got in front of the black as soon’as the word was given, and led a length around the turn, which she made into two before she reached the quarter pole, in forty-three seconds. Going down cross the Atlantic and allow the Americans to hear Tor themselves a fine specimen of true British elo- quence, Sad Effects of Feniunism—The Labor Mi: ment—Telegraphs Control and Rates, It was announced in London that by the Clerken- well Fenian explosion six persons were killed out- right; six more died from its effects; flve more owe their deaths indirectly to it; one young woman is in @ mad house; forty mothers were prematurely con- fined and twenty of their children died; others of the children are dwarfed and unhealthy; one mother ig now a raving maniac; one hundred and twenty persons were wounded; fifty went into hospitals; fifteen are permanently ijured, besides £20,000 worth of damage pF sage | and property.

Going around the Flush- ing end Glen Cove broke up five times and was ten lengths behind when the mare entered the homestretch. Having nothing to fear now, the mare was allowed to go along easily, and she came home a winner of the heat and race, ten lengths ahead, in 2:46, the black having broken up twice more on the homestretch.

Brooklyn ve, New York—An Exciting Contest. A phenomenon! Four clear days in succession. Almost too good to be true. At least so the base ball loving public must have thought yesterday, for although it was well known that the return game between the picked nines representing New York and Brooklyn was to take place yesterday the num- ber which appeared at the Capitoline grounds was comparatively smail. A very foolish rumor had been set afloat that “the game was to be sold,” and that “Brookiyn would be sure to win.’ The pre- diction implied in jhe latter statement was fully realized, but tf process by which that realization was secured most ply proved the fallacy of the former tement; and those who during three hours withstood the chilling, moist-feeling wind which swept across the the fleld from the east and which seemed to admonish all that there wonld’ be wet weather before many hours, had the pleasure of witnessing @ most re markable game. The score given below will show how the game must have ‘‘see-sawed,"’ and from the well known characteristics of ball players and their friends it may be adjudged that the prevatiing excite- ment, was enough to send the blood dancing through the veins strongiyeenough to thaw offyany chilliness Which the wind and weather might induce, New York was not fully represented, and at the eleventh hour two from Brooklyn volunteered to be- come nominal New Yorkers for the nonce, and do their part to give gest to the sport. ‘The Krookiyn nine, tt will be seen, was ae and admirably disposed and fighting @ short and somewhat weakened opposl! arty should have won the vio- tory With areas eames Bub the latter mentioned party ae ee fought with a wil and brought the game atong to the ritination auown below :— \ eomconee® 8! euneeagen fel -cumensa-P Match for the Championship of America and Major Thorp, of New York, long the backer of L.

A public mesting on behalf of African colonization _was heid last evening in the Presbyterian church Fifth avenue, corner of Nineteenth street. There was @small attendance, The proceedings were opened with prayer by the Rey. Dr. Haight. ‘The report for the past year was read. It spoke in fa- vorable terms of the project of colonization at Liberia, to which place no person of color should, in accord- ance with the views of those who favored coloniza- ton, be sent unless the party went of his own accord, The funds of the Colonization Society were, among other things, devoted to the support of a professor and for prizes in the College of Liberia. WiLtam C, ALEXANDER then addressed the meet- ing. He said that after wandering in the Crystal Palace In this city some years since, he saw a case from Liberia, in which were sent over some speci- mens of her manufacture. That showed that Liberia wanted to take her place among the Christian coun- tries of the world, In 1817 the Liberation Society was founded, amid considerable doubts as.to its suc- cess, but Judge Washington predicted that the society would be able to ift its mission, In England, when the early settlers were setting out tor America, encountering all the dangers and perils of sea and forest, they were met with doubt and scoifs, But there was no doubt that the African race of America who had knowledge of Christianity would be the means of bringing the Gospel to their brethren in Africa. Bishop Clarke had stated in an admirable address thathe did not care whether the image of God came before him blanched or bronzed, and that if he had African blood in his veins he would not remain in this land, but would to Africa, where he would have the best chance of get- Brad on, Men might talk of equal rights and natural rights, but it was perfectly plain that inequality was one of the laws o their being, and there was no doubt if the black population wished to get over those things that depressed their manhood it must be in another land, and if the black was ever to fill a position of equality it must be ip some other country where the distinction asto color did not exist, as it did here. The gulf that separated the two races could not be crossed, True, the black race in this country were free, but they could not in the nature of things attain to social equality with the white man, Within the last month six thousand emancipated blacks had i lied to be sent to the shores of Africa, and if the blacks were ever to attain to social equality it could only be in their own land, where they could walk abroad in the consciousness of freedom among those with whom ‘they would be in every respectequal. They might pro- tect the rights of the African by legislation, but they could never give him equality. Here the African was just tolerated, but in ‘Liber ja he would feel that he was in the land of his fathers, entitled to all the rights and privileges offreedom. The speaker next touched upon the point that the operations of the soclety and the establishment of the colony of Liberia had been instrumental in the suppression of the slave trade. Before this society was formed it was calculated that eighty thousand slaves had been annually shipped across the Atlantic, and that twenty thousand them perished on the voyage; but the establishment of the colony at Liberia had had a ioet salutary effect in suppressing the abominable Tame, Rev. JOHN HALL, D. D., was the next speaker. He said that when this society was formed friends in Euro) ve i¢ support. England the idea of establishing colonies at different parts of the world had advanced considerably, and it was not unreason- able to he ir that a.society such as this should be pup, er fi ce only by voluntary contributions but yy State ai Mr. James W. BEEKMAN urged that it could not be thought of for a moment to force the black popula- tion to leave America, If they wished to go to the land of their forefathers the society would do all it could to help them in doing so. The speaker put forward some arguments to prove that it would be ossible to cultivate the fields of the South without he help of the black race. Some other speakers followed, and the proceedings of the meeting closed about ten g’clock.* ‘Twenty-second Anniversary of the American Missionary Association—A Colored Man’s Opinion of Andrew Johnson—He Advises the “White Trash” How to “Keep School.” The American Missionary Association held its twenty-second anniversary last night at Steinway Hall, before an gudience of about three hundred white persons, of both sexes, the majority of whom were aged, Lewis Tappan, vice president, in the chair. The Secretary, GEORGE WHIPPLE, presented astate- ment from which it appeared that the society has six foreign missions, but its labors during the past six years have deen chiefly among the freedmen of the South. During that time it has expended for their benefit $675,899 in cash, and distributed to them $314,885 worth of clothing, besides instructing up- ‘wards of 60,000 of them in its schools. In the cur- rent fiscal year it has gent to the South four hundred and geventy-nine missionaries and teachers, and dis- bursed for them about $375,000, its total expendi- tures in all its departments béing nearly $400,000. Rate Fata A a soar fo Coed which he spoke very ingly of e white peo- ple of the south, Sod teneas at with all the edu- cation that had been for years showered upon their wealthy sons at the great coll of the North, they had never added _— to the world’s literature, with the exception iam Gillmore Simms, and that this people should stand up and say ‘‘the nigger won't learn” was one of the once ractical jokes of the age. He also doubted the Christianity of both the white and black races at the South, and thought that beneath the.show of religion by the blacks there lurked some traces of the fetich worship of the native Afri and it was now time that the Gospel was preached to them. JoHN M. LANGsToN, & colored man, was next intro- duced as “‘a gentleman who had been offered by the ernment the position of Commissioner of the furean of Freedmen and Reft and Abandoned Lands, but who declined it and took a subordinate office under General Howard as General Inspector of Schools of the Freedmen’s Bureau.” The person came forward and said it was true he had declined the position as stated, but it had not been offered to him by the government, but ie President Johnson, and he had never seen day when*he would accept an office at his hands, seealy he would not now take an an office that President Johnson would offer him— (laughter)—because he- believed him to be the worst man now on this Continent. (Applause and hisses.) He believed that if any man ever deserved im) he ment he did—(faint tees he had violated every obligation of office and iets limit of decency. (A voice—‘Oh |” laughter and hisses.) His (the speaker's) tion now as i tor, upder his chief, General Howard, was one he liked, because it brought him in contact with the cok people, in whom he took, and whatever he stated here he said from his own standpoint as a colored man, and claimed especial consideration for that reason.. He then proceeded to say that the blacks of the South ‘were doing very well, all things considered, and the Church at the North had gent, thelr very best men and women to minister to them. the 1 teachers why they go there and they could not tell, but somehow or other they felt that the spirit of the Lord was within them, and bond suddenly found themselves teaching in the South, surrounded by negro children. ‘The colored le needed educa- tion, and it must be considered from three stand- points: first, they needed the introduction of letters done they’ Know very ile about tetera, and’ thelr ey know very little al ers, and their formal schools even now were schools in which the elementary studies were tanght; second, needed to be instruc’ as to the importance neceasity of accumulatit roperty.

In conclusion he urged upon his audi. ence that, having entered upon the work.as they had done, they must not faint by the way, but must edu- cate this people that they might become citizens and aid their friends at the ballot box. If they failed in Going this they must take care lest the le a= s neglect became a dangerous element in their The meeting closed by singing a hymn and the pro- nouncing of the benediction. Reltef of the Poor Cripples of New York City. The anuual meeting of the New York Society for the Relief of the Ruptared and Crippled was held last evening at the rooms, 39 Bible House, R. M. Hartley, Corresponding Secretary, read a report, in which was given a most favorable statement regard- ing their new hospital, The ground for this build- ing, which has been purchased and paid for, is lo- cated at the corner of Lexington avenue and Forty- second street, There are $60,000 in the treasury for the building fund, and about as much more will be wired to complete the edifice. When completed the! erippled children of the poor will be received for treatment and educated pats Ad time they are in the institution.
