This place, which has been for several years fa- vorably kuuwn to New England people at least as a seaside resort, is in many respects very much like Narraganset, R. 1. In fact the position of the houses along the seaside at Southwest Harbor and the grounds in their immediate vicinity forcibly re- call to one’s mind at first sight the pleasant nook in little “Rhody,” and although the view of the open sea le not so extensive as the harbor, it ts, ax a whole, quite as charming as that afforded by its agreeable prototype. Mount Desert is one of those places which, at some time or another, derived their names from a source concerning which the re- cords of historical societies are silent, The last of the two words of the title is pronounced here as though it were spelied ‘dessert,’ the natives pl ing an alarmingly emphatic acceut on the final sy!- lable, This pronunciation is accounted for by soue of the geographical authorities of the neighborliood on the suppovition that the place was discovered hy & Frenchman named Des Aria, while others contend that the pronunciation is altogether wrong, and shonil be sounded like ordinary deserts, because the Mountains hereabouts were aione in their glory without a single human inhabitant, when discove This is highly probable, besides being very reaso able, espectaily as there i# not # Living tnwabitant to be found residing on the mountains even to-day, Mount Desert—prononnce it as you will-i« an island about twenty miles in length by Afteen in width, The place whence I resorts on the island, the other being Rar Harbor Both places are very much ‘frequented by New Eng'and people ant Philadelphians, New York con- triputing {ts small share to the general annval gathering. {n Southwest Harbor there are two to iels, or rather boarding houses, aud #ix at Bar Harbor, att affording their patrons every comfort that ia neediul to persona who come to the country to live as country people are expected to liv certainly de not find at dinner al! the ao-calt delicacies of the season aa you would at re sorta where the cream of diintiness is sup aaa to float om the surface of every big hotel dish, nor a_ tasteless display of viands @ Ia everyting un and quite as tniigestibie: hat ta!

The Latest Hvente—Effect of the Warm Weather—Anticipations, Lonpon, July 25, 1868, Fortunately for all of us and more particularly for some of us the weather has undergone a decided change for the better. The “some” ineludes, so far asIcan see, the sporting men here and the weak- minded, 1am glad for your sake, as you will now enjoy a period of retaxation from my groanings, which, in self-defence, I must hold to be a correet expression of the turfy mind of England. Racing men will rejoice, as the heat not only materially in- terfered with their pockets, but with their constitu- tions, which would soon have got into such a state that they must have ‘fallen between,” or gone about the world as ‘livin’ skelintons,” or sunk into what the penny-a-liners, in their fine obituary style, call “umimely graves.” The weak-minded will find the advantage of the change, as I verily believe the doc- trines of Dr. Cumming, the Zadkiel of Crown Court, were rapidly extending, and a conviction was be- coming general that the millennium was approaching with the rapidity of seven league boots, either by the extension of the subterranean fires or by our falling plump into the distressing embraces of the sun. AU this gives but a poor augury for the success of the great Goodwood meeting, one of the most im- portant, as it is one of the most enjoyable, of the whole year, I told you in my last that his Grace the Duke of Rutland, on whose demain the fixture is held, had given permission to all trainers who have horses engaged tn the various events to train up to the end of the gathering on the quarters here, which are better than any, in the present state of the weather, in the country. Most of them, however, are apparently of the opinion that they might go further than their own training grounds and fare worse; at all events, very few, if any, of the horses engaged have as yet arrived on the spot. A friend who was down yesterday writes to me that he had Just visited the training ground called the Hal- naker Gallops, which were formed at vast expense and trouble by that king of sportsmen, Lord George Bentinck, when he had the management of the Duke of Kichmond’s horses. These gallops were made out of the centre of a wood—a fact which accounts for the wondrously charming and refreshing char- acter of the place and “speaks volumes” for the industry and perseverance of Lord George. Jn my last, when describing the important race, the Burgniey Handicap, at the Stamford meeting, I stated that next day it was discovered by reference to the Racing Calendar that Distat, the animal that came in next tu the winuer, Kidderminster, had been struck out of the race two hours previously at Messrs. Wetherby’s, in London. Of course this was a most awkward cireumstance, as, if the mare had come first instead of second past the post her backers: must nave pald, since to ail intents and purposes she Was not in the race at all, Even as it was there were many disputed bets in consequence, not a few people having backed her for a place, Who may at once “bid a long, @ last adieu’? to their beloved coin, It turns ont from a letter sent to the Sportsman by Mr. Jack Coney, the owner of the mare, that, aa pc Stephen Blackfool in “Hard Times’? has MM, it was all nuddie;” that he had telegraphed to Stamford to prevent the animal running, and that his trainer would explain why she had ran while he hasn’t. And the Calendar having explained what everybody knew, “that Distait could not ve considered as a starter,” there the matter rests, ‘rhe secona day of the Liverpool meeting falling on last Saturday, When I was writing to you from Lon- don, I could not be expected to know the results, PUBLIC EDUCATION. The German-American Schools in the United States. ‘The assoctation of German-American teachers, oung and had lost all thelr vegetation during the | which meets fortnightly in this city, have deter- mined to improve, not only the system of tuition, distresa, Zhe route to Mount Desert at present ia by steamer | nos giso the grade of teachers in the country. to the tra- | Although they may have becn, and probably were arrogant in this, it cannot be denied that every etfort vaunted Cneouie at improvement in education 1s commendable and should be supported according to its merits. When from New | this association sent its first annual report to Mr, Barnard, Superintendent of Public Instruction, at Washington, those who knew of the fact believed that it would goon be given to the public, Almost four months have expired since and not a word of it has yet seen the light of day in print. Anoxtract of this report is here inserted, ‘The German-American schools may be divided—so the report says—into three classes, The first class, beginning with the beginning of the immigration of Germans, sprang from the desire to prevent the dis- ruption of family ties, threatened by the fact that the parents couki not master the English and their children forgot the German and learned to despise it as an inferior language, and often even joimea another church. ‘These schoois never reached higher grades, it belmg the clergy who necessarily charge of them, and they sank to become mere vehicles of propagandiam of each particular faith, Of this class of schools there are nearly as many in Re country as there are German religious congre- jons. Tue second class of German-American schools originated—(taking the report referred to for the text)—with those immigrants who left Germany afier the ill-fated revolutionary efforts of 1830, yen them the mercantile classes were the majority, and they knew the advantage of the knowledge of several languages. The schools founded by them were pr vate enterprises, and confined themseives to the teaching of languages and of those requirements ne- cessary for commercial pursuits exclusively. They did—as this report has tt—forget the true principles of education, and only pursued the idea of pecuniary utility. These schools have been in existence in all large commercial cities of the Union since the year 1832, * ‘The third class dates its origin with the beginning of the immigration of the political fugitives from the vengeance of their governments after the revolu- tion of 1848, The most intelligent and educated of teachers in Germany were thrown hither by the political events of that year in Europe, Soon after schools were formed by them on shares, and the rational system of education, according to the doctrines of Pestalozzi and of Diesterweg, was by them introduced. ‘The course of instruction pri valling atthe best schools in Germany—which this report insists to be the best in the world—was adopted by them here as a pattern to work after, A small number of the private shools of the second class, being among the best of their kind, have joined in this moven ent. The report then goes on to explain the system of Pestalo: that it seeks the education of the whole man, and not only his perfection for a techmeal pur- pose, The mind as well as the body 1s sought to be developed, and it aims atthe eievation of man for all purposes. All moral powers of the mind and heart are brought in service for the advancement of the intellect. It does not look down on the pupil as if he was a thing without a which one can mould into any shape desired, nor does it believe that parrot-like efficiency in’ reciting this or that branch of the lessons 38 suffictent to make a man, On the contrary, the report proceeds, this system considers the ‘pupil in the ligat of free man- hood, containing all the elements of a free and true man, which should be developed by edu- cation, The self-activity of the pupil is sought to be awakened, whe principle of self-observation, self-thougut and self-action is aroused to make him feel his own force, and at the same time to instil into his heart ihe desire to grow up morally a t man. Hence, tuey say, learning should be made easy and a pleasure, ‘ai ali the power of the youth- ful inteliect be awas 1, and that the mind of the youth shouid itself take pride in its gradual growth. ‘To attain to this it ts necessary, the report con- tinues, to have well educated teachers, who should be themselves what they wouid te their pupils to become, and also & thorough method or syst and in both, the report claims, the German-American teachers are eminently qualified, The report says that the German system of education is a saving of both time and Poe al, because the pupils are so in- structed that after the first year they are so ad- vanced that they meet their teachers half way. ‘This system is divided into divisious; the institute’ for children, the “object ies- sons”? the phonetic method, the analytical system in arithmetics and algebra—all these comprise but one continuons rule of teaching. ‘The report fur- ther claims that the pupils leaving any of the sev- eral institudons caled German-American schoois can speak three languages—Engiish, German and French— and are apt lo enter into any business tueir life may call them to, and that, by the the body, they are healthy an exertion, ‘This, of course, 18 given with the res The meeting appears to have been a fair one, as meetings nowadays go; the Saturday half holiday allowed a great inany more of the rag, tag and bo)- tail to journey down to Aintree, This year the stake, which is two handred sovereigns in specie added to a sweepstakes of twenty-five sovereigns each, fifteen forfeit, could not attract more than six of sixteen subscribers to the post. These were Mr. Johnston's Tabouret, three years old, 101 Ibs, who this year won the Corporation Plate at Newcastle, who was handicapped at 77 Ibs, for tae Goodwood stakes was prominently noticed in the betting on that eventon account of his light weight; the same owner's four year old, The Dean, 96 lbs., who ran “Nowhere” in the Koyal Hunt Cup and the Queen's Stand Plate at Ascot and in various other events this_ year, in which he showed to like advantage; M. De Montgomery's Fervacques, four years, 115 ibs., the winner of the Grand Prix and Northumber- jand Plate last year; Mr. T. Martennau’s coit Honest- ish, four years, 110 Ibs., who made @ poor appear- ance in the Northumberland Plate of this year; Mr. T. Parker's filly Fair Wind, four years, 110 Ibs., and Mr. Naylor's mare Wild Briar, five years, 99 Ibs., who at 12 Ibs, advantage ran Orion, the Alexandra Park Grand Prize winner, to a neck in the Worcester- shire stakes, and who was “spotted” as a “real good thing” for this event as soon as the weighta appeared, Fervacques long held the sapremacy tn the betting; but there were such mysterious rumors current regarding Honestish on the morning of the race that before the flag fell they were eqnal favorites at 9 to 4. As to the race tt- self there is not a great deal to be said. On the very first attempt the lot were despatched on very even terms; but after going a few strides Wild Briar took np the running with a lead of nearly a length of The Dean, Who was just a little in front of Honestish and Fervacques, the rear being brought up by ‘Tabouret, ‘They advanced on their way home pretty much in this order for about a quarter of a mile, when Honest- ish made a brief appearance tn front, but his jockey, pe emg ek BE mag him back into the third position, and Wild Briar was again altowed to have aclear lead, Pervacques iying second and Honestish third, while almost at the flanks of the last men- tioned was The Dean, Fair Wind joining Tabouret in the rear at the mile post. As the lot came round what is called the “canal turn” Honestish once more made advance to the front, racing up to Wild Briar, and the pair for a short distance ed the fie’ on alinost equal terms, Suddenly, to the hor- ror of the backers of thia light of the English Church, he was rapidly approac! his stable companion, Tabouret, who in the last few strides closed «0 rapidly with the other that it was only by the most as riding on the part of The Dean's jockey, by the hardest pulling—there is no for it—on that of Tabouret’a rider, Hud horse who carried the stable money and even then It was only by a neck, i third at half @ leagin in the rear Fervacques | of number two, The Huntington meeting i an aristocratic affair extending ove pretty extensively } ized, ag a ru elite of the turf, much so on this occasion, The sport was of very {| moderate quatlty, | Nottingham on Thursday and Friday was favored | all that ean be aatd to its favor, for the racing (he most “leather flapping” description.

VIRGINIA. Recency naw ° The Political Revolution Among the Blacks—~ Sensible Appeal From a Leading Colored Man—Agitation as to the Howard Amends ment Amoug the RadicaleA Forlorn Hope—Movement to Place Negroes on the Police Force. RicHMonD, August 7, 1868. From every section of the State the strongest in- dications of a political revolution among the blacks reach me, The recent inaction on the part of the radica? managers here, caused by a lack of funds and other unforseen circumstances, has resulted most disastrously to that party. “To keep Sambo true in the political faith in which he was baptized, a cone stant enthusiasm is required, regular league drill- ing, violent harangues arid reiterated promises of social equality, dominance of his race, and the long expected lands, mules, greenbacks, &c. Omit them for a season and the African suffragan be- comes demoralized—a ready prey for the oflieat speaker of the party to which he was hitherto 80 bit- terly opposed, Such has been the case in this State. Speakers have not made their appearance at the familiar crossroad stands; the leagues have ceased operation from a lack of enthusiasm or a hopeless+ ness In the matter of an election, and the late reduc tions in the force of the Bureau has left the negro time for calm reflection and a more free intercourse with the whites, The result is manifest not only here but in every State further South—a wholesale desertion of the radical party and the formation of democratic clubs, many of which have adopted con- stitutions and by-laws similar to those of the whites under the standard of — Sey- mour and Blair, In this State, where so much enthusiasm exists in regard to the Prest- dential election among the democracy, who seem determined to hold an election for electors, the negroes see no other chance to vote than to join that party and vote witi them, for to vote is every- thing, While not to vote, when anybody else is voting, seems as thongh they were nothing more than “common niggers,” without the great title of citizens. Kut besides Unis a political reaction exisis among the blacks that cannot be mistaken. which has already assumed @ most formi aspect. As an instance I give the concluding pe tuon of an appeal made by a leading colored man Lynchburg a few days since as indicative of the fecl- ing among the race, After reiterating the promises and cajoleries resorted to by the carpet-baggers and Bureau agents he 8a: wishes to restore it; the ‘forbids ft, and the dem tic party Would not restore it if they could.
