tion for the concert room and the operatic stage. There is a fine field in New York for s conscientious exercise of such talents as the directors of this musical university undoubt- edly possess. There are perhaps to-day in this city igore than twenty vyouns tatleg gifted ah fine voices as “4 Soin donne in #urope, but they require careful tuition to fiake them available for the operatic stage. They shine in private life, they contribute a host of charms to the salons, but they are lost to the world where they might secure a career that would reflect honor upon themselves and the country. We have educated here great masters in the modern school of painting, such 98 Church and Bierstadt, and many others we night name, We have given to Europe some prime downe Vike Patti and Van Zandt, whose fume is now universal ; but there is a rich mine of music yet only half developed which may one day furnish Europe with as many brilliant singers as Europe has already sent to us dur- ing past years, In fact, we have as much ma- terial of this kind here as exists in Europe. What we require is a good school of art, where voices can be cultivated, where style can be carefully inculcated and the requisites for the ‘tyric stage be nursed and cultured to the highest degree of perfection. It is perhaps in “such an institution as the College of Music thet these wants can be best supplied. BOOK NOTICES.

He there halted, and having reconnoitered the position of the revo- lutionists, despatched a message to “headquarters” asking for reinforcements before attacking It.

A wild rumor has it, indeed, that all hands have perished; but the very latest telegrams hold out an encouraging hope that all may yet be saved, although they are, or have been, in imminent danger. The Grand Duke Alexis Alexandrovich was born on the 14th of January, in the year 1850, He is chief commander of the regiment of infantry of Ekathe- rineburg and also of the first division of the feet of Finland. The Grand Duke, with the consent of his father, undertook some time since a naval voyage which was to nave been of considerable duration, with the view of improving his health and perfecting himself in the every day routine of his profession at thesame time. The original programme of tour embraced a visit to the United States of Amer- ica, and the Grand Duke was placed by his parents under the control, for tuition and guidance during his absence, of Vice Admiral Posiet, of the imperial navy, and the frigate Alexander Nayski, mounting fifty-one guns, commanded by Captain Kremer, or- dered at his disposal. The distinguished party touched the coast of Algeria about six weeks since and set sail soon afterwards for, as was said, America. The latest report from the voyagers to hand in this city, previous to the intelligence of the wreck of the frigate, was dated in London on the 17th of Septem- ber and reads thus:— ‘The Russian screw frigate Alexander Navski, fifty- one guns, Captain Kremer, from Algiers on the 17th of August ev route for Cronsiadt, pul into Plymouth, September 16.

LOUISIANA. sovernor Warmoth Vetoes the Civil Rights Bill, NeW ORLEANS, Sept. 26, 1868, Governor Warmoth to-day vetoed the Civil Kights bill. ‘The following is the veto message :— ‘TO THE HONORABLE SPRAKER AND MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES :— I return to the House of Representatives an act to project all persons in their public and civil rights we jout my signature for the following reasons, to wit :— ‘The rights and privileges enumerated in the first section of this bill, and sought to be established thereby, are fully and explicitly recognized established in the constitution of the State. Even a foreigner, not a_ citizen, has the same right to travel and be entertained as a citizen, and there is othing in our jurisprudence which makes distinctions on account of race or color, ae in so far as relates to slavery. The organic law of the land gives to all persons i fect equality of civil and political rights, including the privilege of enforcing these rights in the courts and employing all the legal remedies which have heretofore been found requisite to secure these rights to all persons. The means, however, pro- posed in the fourth sectioa of the bill for enforcin; ‘Vhese rights, are, in my judgment, not merely novel and unprecedented, but impracticable and. perni- cious, It seeks to make that a crime which has never, to my knowled; personal righ and confuse its conception public conseience of the right and wrong when we seek to obliterate so evident a distinction. Our statute book is filled already with criminal laws that are never enforced and never will be until public opinion rises to their respective levels. The history of the world is full of examples of this sort, where acts not in themselves criminal have been vainly declared so; and in this way a levity of feelivg in regard to crime has been produced. We lapse into the legis- lation of a less enlightened period when we try to convert an act which is properly a question of civil damages into an offence against the peace aud dig- nity of the State, and it ought to be carefully borne in mind that we cannot hope by legislation to con- trol the question of personal association, much less can we hope to force on those who differ from us our views of what is humane or courteous or Chris- tian like. Mutual forbearance and Kindness and noble bel in the brotherhood of man must ing from higher source than the fear of punishment, They ean never be forced to grow by pains and penaities, Again, so far as railroads and steamboats were concerned it must be borne In mind that the regulation of com- merce between the several States was wisely con- , under the constitution, to the national Con- 3. The object ol this grant of power was clearly to prevent the confusion whi would arise from conficting legislation on such subjects by the differ- | ent contiguous States, and the wisdom of the provi- sion appears mot y day as means of transportation are increased and improved. By the second and third seetions of this act no distinction is clearly made between railroads and steamboats whose routes are wholly within this State and those whose routes are beyond. Of course our criminal jurisdiction cannot go beyond our State lines, and in | this respect the act seems impolitic and liable to produce unnecessary confusion and litigation for ex- | perimental legislation of this kind, which the kanction of no successful precedent can be adduced. A more unfavorable occasion than the present coaia jardly be imagined. In the midst of a most exciting political campaign, at a time when the passions, animosities and resentinents consequent upon great war and attendant upon great and sudden changes in affairs are roused to the highest pitch of intensity, and when the prejudices regarding the race Is inflamed to the utmost, is here proposed to »nfurce by penal rewedies what 18 practically class lation and to maintain and confirm class dis- ction. The effect, in my judgment, of such an tt spri ends sprereny hidden from view by the author of the bill, The barriers of race, instead of veing thereby removed, would be increased in height and breadth, in firmness and = strength So long as these barriers are maintained 80 long will be deferred the era of peace, order and prosperity in the State, to which mutual harmony and good will are essential, and so long will the rights of the lately enfranchised linger in the condition of doubt and Insecurity. Phe prejudices | upon which these barriers are founded have no foun- dation in reason or nature, and will surely give way to the softening influences’ of time unleas they are constantly fretted into activity. In the meantime any person, colored ag well as white, is equally se- | cured by the constitution in the enjoyment of politl- cal and cwil rights and in his remedy for their in- fringement. The courts are open to all alike. The rule obtains in national and State courts. The heir oMicers are nable to and dependent upon all its citizens alike, Colored and white alike constitute juries, Those of the lately enfranchised who are wise and | reflecting will not askfor more, They will rather deprecate a kind of legisiation which, instead | of advancing their present condition, only renders the enemies of their race more bitter and determined tm their hostility, and furnishes them weapons whereby to assall the rights which the colored men have already acquired.

He is of opinion, how. | ever, that Oke action of the Legtslature, though wnu- | sual ia its fori, meets the requirement of the con- | stitution in the matier of securing federal aid for Alabama. He does not fully sympathize with the Legislature in its call for additional troops, aud ox- presses his confidence in 8ia own ability, by civil machinery, to maintain the peace of the State. The people desire peace, and he has the assurance of the men of both parties of their support in his ef- forts to that end. There is some disorder on the lune of the Tennessee river and north of Mobile, but elsewhere throughout the State there are po indications of disturbanges and no disposi- pu to resist «the law, and in no other portion of the State has any officer who has been regularly installed in office been resisted in the performance of his duties. The Governor is apprehensive that during the excite | ment of the coming election imprudent parties may | commit acts which will lead to serious disturbances unless restrained by some assurance from the Presi- dent that they will be promptly put down fed- eral authority, Beyond this assurance Governor Smith ts inclined to think that no federal interfer. ence is necessary at present, pected Return of the Attorney General.

When he left here for New York he thought he would return on the next Friday, but the business which called him away has Hetained him longer than he anticipated, Departure of Commissioner Rollins for New Hampshire, Commissioner Rollins left here this evening for his home in New Hampshire, and expects to be absent abont ten days. Mr. Rollins had intended to start on his visit much sooner, but was prevented by the necessity of deciding the contract for printing rev- enue stamps and other pressing matters. He does not expect to make any stay in New York. The Surratt Cuse—An Appeal ered by the Divtrict Attorney. The District Attorney has prepared a brief in the Surratt case in support of the appeal made by him from the decision of Judge Wylie to the Court in bane, The brief begins with a review of the pra- ceedings in the case and argues that the Court erred in its rulings. First, because the statute of limita- Uons as a defence to the alleged crime was not and could not have been before the Court on the plead- ings 4s they then stood; second, because the prose- cution of the offence was not barred by the statute of limitations. The brief farther argues that the statute of limitations as a defence to a prosecution can only become a part of the record im a case when pleaded by the accused, that the accused was excepted from the operations of that statute agya person fleciug from justice and that the United States should have had an opportunity of proving that he was so ex- cepted. General Sibley Investigating the Camilla Riots. General Sibley, Assistant Commissioner of Freed- men’s affairs in Georgia, has informed General Howard that he is making a thorough investigation into the late riot at Camilla. General Sibley has been notified that the Commissioner fully approves of his action in the matter and directed to report the result of the investigation to headquarters, General Howard at the White House.

AQUATICS. Regatta of the Adantic Boat Club. ‘Yue second annual regatta of the Atlantic Boat Club, of Hoboken, took place yesterday evening off the Elysian Fiolds. Whether the threatening raim- clouds that hung over the city all the fore and after- noon, occasionally dropping hints of the little deluge to come at nightfall, deterred pleasure seekers, OF that people did not think the event of sufficient im- portance to justify them in encountering the delays and annoyances of a journey to the Fields, the number of persons congregated to view the races ‘was very limited. When tie signal was given to the contestants to get ready not more than twenty people had assembled opposite the stakeboat, and these seemed much more interested in a game of base ball between Hoboken juveniles being played under the trees than in the movements of the half-dozen oaras men who were vainly braid to get up an exe Sean About fixe o'clock Was ready for ta@ start. ‘The only entries for the first race were H. 0. Ma, grane and J. 5. Hall (white and blue), and C. Tag and J. Ballin (white), in double scull boats, The distance Was three miles, and the prize a pair of club badges, When the word was given to go, Tag and Ballin (white and blue) started ahead and made a effort to maintain the distance gained; but getti well used up in the first mile, Magrane and Hi (white) passed eg and gained a hundred yaras ahead. The pulling from this point to the far stake boat was not very brilliant, but on the homestretom both crews put on all the steam they were oe of, and the race promised to be exciting. The ti was running strong on the ebb, however, and the wind was very unfavorable. Tag and Ballin, seei the impossibility of their regaining the distance |: on the return, took matters very easy and permitted Magrane and Hall to win the race by 150 yards. Time, 29 minutes, ‘The second race was for single scull boats, Ma- grane and Hall were the only contestants, A con- riderable time elapsed before the preliminaries were arranged, during which the men rested from the se vere exercise of the preceding race. Noone ex- pected that very extraordinary rowing would be displayed in this contest, and no one was dis pointed. Hall started well and kept a few lengt ahead, but Magrane puiled steadily up and final passed him, and when the boats appeared rout the point on the homeward run he was a hundred yards in advance. The distance rowed in thi« race also waa three miles, and it was not surprising therefore that the men pulled stiffly to the stake- boat, Afew dozen people had assembled on the river bank by this time, bat no excitement was manifested and there was no betting, Magrane came in two hundred yards in advance of his opponent, making the ran in 28), minutes, Mr. Josep Russab was the referve.
