ow being waged in the empire. The United States government, however, will expect a full reimbursement from the Japanese authori- ties of the expenses of the ram during the time she is under the control of Mr. Van Val- kenburgh. The Way to Prevent Frauds and Collect the Revenue. There ig a great deal of talk in Congress ‘and out of it about frauds on the revenue and how to prevent them. The difficulty lies chiefly with Congress; for it has demoralized the ‘government, abolished the Executive power and insisted upon placing radical thieves in office. We have no hope of a thorough reform while the radical party remains in power, but something can be done to check the enormous frauds in the Internal Revenue Department by the courts of law and by grand and petit juries. We want more examples of punishment like that of Callicott and those of the internal revenue thieves at Richmond— Anderson, Elsom, Gouldman and Patterson— whom Chief Justice Chase properly sentenced on Monday to fines and imprisonment in the Penitentiary. If the United States attorneys and the grand juries in this metropolitan dis- trict would do their duty they might make a grand haul of just such rascals. There are at Jeast a dozen men connected with the partisan journals here, and principally connected with the radical journals, whose hands are deep in frauds on the government. There would be little difficulty fn bringing home to these ras- cals their crimes if the United States authori- ties and other authorities, with the grand juries, would do their duty and make @ searching in- vestigation. Send a dozen of these newspaper revenue thieves and another dozen of the whis- key ring officials to the Penitentiary, and an important step will be made in checking frauds. Congress may tie the hands of the Executive and force radical scoundrels into the revenue service, but the United States attorneys and grand juries are independent of that body. We call upon them, therefore, to begin this much needed reform in New York, and their example will have a good effect in every other part of the country. Bovine Nomrnations.—One of the smal! democratic journale—the penny trumpet of some little clique of intriguers who are terribly alarmed at the strength of Chase—hae started a story in regard to the purchase of the demo- cratic nomination in his interest—a story that, we observe, seems to run very well out West. The national banks, it is said, have subscribed 4 million and quarter of dollars to buy up the Fourth of July Convention for Chase, with the purpose, of course, of securing their future and getting a continuance of their present mag- nificent manipulation of the country’s, riches. If the banks have raised any such sum we can tell them how to use their money more to their owa advantage. Let them buy the nomination for Pendleton. He would certainly be beaten, and, of course, the democracy and all opposi- tion with him, Things would then remain as they are, or, with a new victory of the radi- cals, be still more in the interest of the banks, and they would secure their future by default of any power against them. But we need hardly advise those political financiers. If they have raised money to buy a nomination, the way we have advised is the way they will use it. Cuask THE GENERAL Crorce.—I{n another column we give a letter from Cincinnati show- ing the strength of the popular movement for Chief Justice Chase in the West. It tends to strengthen the thought that the choice of this distinguished statesman is one of those facts that the people decide for themselves by a common, almost electrical, consent in ali parts of the country at the given moment.

Havana, June 16, 1868. By the arrival of the French mai! steamer from Vera Cruz we have advices from that port to the 18th imst. and from the city of Mexico to the 10th, There had been great excitement over changes in the Cabinet. Sefior Don Sebastian Lerdo de Tejada had been sworn tn as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, vice General Jesus Gonzales Ortega, now in prison at Monterey, Seilor de Tejada resigned his position in the Cabinet as Minister for Foreign Af- fairs under orders from the court, who refused to consent that he hold both offices. President Juarez was dissatisfied with this decision, and the Minister of Justice, Sefior Martinez de Castro, resigned. It was reported that other members of the Cabinet would follow his example. With but few exceptions the press of the capital were clamorous for a complete renovation of the Ministry, and the popular sentiment seemed to be in favor of only one member remaining, Seftor Ignacio Vallarte, Minister of Gobernacion. It was not known who would succeed to the portfolio for Foreign Af- fairs, which ts temporarily in charge of Sefior Aspi- roz; but the name of Generai Porfirio Diaz was freely mentioned as the probable successor to Seilor de Tejada. As to Minister Romero's portfolio the chances of Deputies Zarco and Prieto were canvassed in connection with the Treasury Department. Arevolution in the capital is expected tf al! the ministers do not resign. The discontent against Juarez is increasing because of his opposition to the action of the Judges of the Supreme Court and to the will of the people. He claims the privilege of nominating his own ministers, Many arrests have have been made at the capitai during the past month. It was rumored that President Juarez contemplates making a trip to Oajaca, hts native place. In his absence the duties of the Presidency are to be dis- charged by Chief Justice de Tejada as er officio Vice President of the republic. This interim, it ts ex- pected, will last until the convening of Congress tn | September next. Sefior Ignacio Mariscal, ex-Secretary of the Mexi- can Legation at Washington, had been nominated for a seat on the Supreme bench. Sefior Puerta goes to New York, to remain for about two years. Generals Rivera, Noriega, Negrete and others through the country were on the war path. General Negrete had gone to the State of Guerrero at the head of one thousand four hundred rebels, On his way he had entered the town of Zacatlan, in the State of Puebla. It has a population of ten thou- sand inhabitants, Negrete was received with great enthusiasm owing’ to his personal popularity, and the disaffection of the péople. In the State of Quetétaro @ body of rebels, four thousand strong, ad been concentrated at Jalpan, a town of about two thousand Inhabitants. In the same*State General Rivera received active support from the Governor.

Hotel about the middie of last week) for the purpose of laying the proceed- ings of the meeting before the Fourth of July Con- vention have not been idle. The committee consists of one hundred, and have been } Selected from the prominent men of both the | great parties. The democrats on the committee for this State are ex-Senator Heister Clymer, late democratic candidate for Governor; Rich- ard Vaux, Theodore Cuyler, General Wistar, of Colonel E.

As authority was given to the chairman of the Chase meeting re- ferred to to increase the committee, it is believed that mot less than five hundred gentlemen, prominent in political iife, will be in New York onthe 8d of July for the purpose of laying before the Demo- cratic Convention the resolutions passed at the Chase meeting {n Philaqe!phia, The Chase movement in this city is strongest in the Firat Congressional district—a district which last year gave #ix thousand democratic majority. The democracy are quite enthusiastic for the Chief Jus- | tice; nor is the enthusiasm all on the part of the democracy, a8 the following ‘communication, ad- dreased to a prominent Ghase man in this city by a man who 4 year or two ago was a nominee of the repubiican party, will show:— PHILADELPHIA, May 17, 1868, Sir—Allow me to congratulate you upon your timely movement for the nomination of the Chief Justice a8 judicious and opportune. [ have urgently used the name of Saimon Portland Chase as the man most eminently qualified for the Chief Magistracy of the Union. I have therefore to request of you that you set me down as furthering the interests of the great “ferryboy and financier.'’ JW. ‘The enthusiasm in the Firat district ig to a certain extent accounted for vy the dectded stand taken by Assessor Frazler, of the revenue service, together with the efficient ald rendered him by bis thirty-seven assistant assessors and inapectors, who are gli warm in their support of Mr, Chase, Mr, Frazier was appointed and confirmed as a conservative republican, and his influence in | the district over which he t# the assessor is shown | in the fact of the democratic majority increasing | since 1862 from 5,000 (Kandall’s majority that year) | to 6,000 majority at the last election. | | \ The recent letter of Mr. Chase has not troubled the democracy much tn this city. They argue that as Congress has admitted the Southern ‘States to representation there will be eighty electoral votes cast by the lately rebellious © States, which are necessary to success, These votes, or | a majority, will at least be secured by Chase's mame; and Judge Chase's claim of “im- partial suffrage in the States, to be regulated by the | States," and the doctrine of “law against force,” will secure him the State of Pennsylvania in the Octover State election. I will keep you fully posted as to future move- ments; but, 80 far ag I have yet been able to ascer- tain, the conservative sentiment of this city, com- prising the first four Congressionai districts, looks at resent directly to the nomination of Chase. This information | have gained from generai conversation with the leading men of both parties. THE NATIONAL GAME. | Base Ball Notes.

The Atlantic Club—The Regatta Te-Day. An interesting event—the third annual regatta of the Atlantic Yacht Club—comes off to-day, and should the bright expectations of its numerous members be happily reatized, few will have witnessed the contest without feelings of gratification. So far the most efftctent arrangements have been made to render tho Gveasion one of pleasure as well ay to in- sure the comfort of the spectators, and it only re- mains in the @ckie hands of tlie weather clerk to complete the otherwise excellent preparations, None but those interested tn yathting, or indeed whose hearta are for the time centred in any oat- door amusement, can thoroughly cOmprehend the feelings of disappointment, chagrin and petulance which trreaistibly seize the mind that for some favorite pastime has long and eagerly fopea for a fine day, but which when arrived lowers in rage and belches forth ita indignation in storms and pelt- ing rain. The Atlantic Yacht Club has rapidly risen to a high standard of excellence, and the display of their crafts to-day ts earnestly looked forward to by al! who admire the production of iirst class boata, as well as the proper development of the scterice of yachting, and wno wish to render tt @ National accomplishment, The entries to-day include some fine specimens of model yachts, a number of which have been completely overhauled and thoroughly equipped for the race, so that on the whole the competition will be keen and exciting. The regulations appear to have received due consid- eration, and will no doubt be acceptable to the several contestants, All yachts must carry the sails and spars which they shalt be pledged’ to carry daring the season, and fiy the club flag and their private signal during the regatta. The course wiil be through the Narrows to a stake boat off Coney Island Point, fore same from cast to west, thence to the Southwest Spit, rounding on the West Bank to the stake boat at the place of starting. The yaehts will be anchored tn three lines, according to their respective classes, at nine A. M. this morning, second clasa sloops to southward, the their numbers, jibs down. The judges will reserve the right In their discretion to order all sails down, Bearing tn mind that spectators add interest to the acene, the Atlantic yachtmen have chartered a steamer to take the members and their friends to witness the race, and she wall lie in waiting to recelve them at the foot of Montague street from nine to half-past nine o'clock. The Regatta Committee, Measry. W. N. Puffer, William McMonntea, Charles Condit, ©. T. Lippet and Peter Voorhis, will be on hand to re- ceive the guests ofthe cub, At about ten o'ciock the steamer, with guests, having arrived the signa! on board will be dropped for all to prepare for the start. Five minutes after the fag will be run up, which will be the signal for the secon! class sloops to start; one minute after the first class stoops and in one minute more the schooners, At present speculation as to the most likely winner 13 as fruitless as it ts unnecessary, but ‘‘a wet sheet and a flowing sea’ will render the regatta worthy of the club and delightful to the spectators, Entries for the Annual Regatta of the New York Yacht Club—Specia!l Notice—Admis- sion of Ladies, ‘The followtng are the oficial entries of veasels to compete in the annual regatta of the New York Yacht Club to-morrow :— H, Morton, Secretary.

Horse Trots and Pedestrian Feats—An Excit- ing Race Between Empress and Sorrel Dan—Running Race and Walking Match, (Prom the Evening Telegram of yesterday.| Boston, June 15, 1888, There has been a great rush at the River: te Riding Park in Brighton this afternoon to witness a series of outdoor sports. Provably the greatest crowd that has been present during any of the races of the season was on the ground, and the interest and excitement rap igh and uninterrupted from the beginning to the end. The first event was a race between the well known horses Empress and Sorrel Dan, the first named en. tered by William Woodruff and the second by Harry Brook, for @ purse of $1,000, mile heats, best three in five, Both horses were In flue condition and trotted finely, and contested the race very closely, The firat heat was barely saved by Empres in 2:24, and Sorre! Dan made the second by about a neck in the same time, The third heat Sorrel Dan also took in 2:34, and on the fourth both horses came {fn even in 2:36, and It was of course deciared @ dead heat. The fifth heat Sorre! Dan saved by less than a length in 2:37, and he was accordingly declared the victor in the race, ‘The next event {n order was a running match of two hundred yards, for @ solid sliver cup, valued at $75. There were nine compe’ —Wiiliam Strickiand, of Lowell; P. J. Buckle, Patrick Shea, of Boston; W. J. Mills, of Boston; Smith Allen, of East Boston; Thomas Cloonan, of Brighton; Little Frank, of Boston; G. F. Bryant, of Boston, and T. P. Donaldson, of Boston. All had an even start when the word waa given, but Strickland soon got the lead and kept it to the end, making the two hundred yards in twenty-three seconds, Cloonan and Donaldson were nearly abreast, but some half dozen steps be- hind Strickland, and the latter took good care that they should not reduce the gap. Just before reach- tng the end Cloonan made a slight spirt and came in the least perceptible distance ahead of Donaldson, and he was accordingly awarded the second prize, When Mr, Strickland had the cup presented to him there were loud calls from the spectators for a speech, and he responded by saying to them that he had won the cup by the use of his legs, but he hoped that he would never lose the use of his legs by the use of the cup. Tire principal tnterest of the day was centred In the ten mile walking match between George Topley, the noted English pedestrian, and three others for a urse of $200, The terms of the race were that Top- ey should allow all who chose to enter the lists two minutes’ start. The three who entered were Messrs. ©. M. Payne, Lae W. EB. Harding, New York; and Charles L. Manning, Boston. On the word bet ven the three men last named started, Harding ah ahead and walked in splendid style, making his first baif mile in 4:13 and the mile in bE For the first quarter the other two waiked well and were not much in the rear of Harding, but at this distance {t became evident that the contest was to be between Harding and Topley, and but littie attention was given the others. At the expiration of the allotted two minutes Topley started amid the cheers of the spectators and struck out pirongly and at @ rate which made it apparent that if he held out he ass even Harding, which he did at the conclusion 0! the second hs an ley’s first half was made Ig 9:56 Ig rest taken by ae aly Wats He in pao fix his dress, which had become diearranged, neceast- tating a delay of two minutes and seven seconds. Topley completed the last half of the tenth mile in a ithe less than four minutes, and having won the race he entered the room beneath the judges’ stand and was showered with cold water from head to foot, appearing to feel refreshed from his bath and not much fatigued by his rapid journey. Hardin; walked nine miles tn one hour and thirt minutes, just as Topley conciuded his tenth.
