LIVERPOOL, Oct. 28, 1868. ‘The address which the Liverpool Chamber of Com- ‘merce has voted to present to Hon. Reverdy John- #on congratulates him on the peace and harmony which exist between Great Britain and the United ‘States and urges the necessity for the practical adop- tion of the principles of free trade in America, de- claring that such a change would give a great im- petus to American commerce and show that the re- sources of the United States are even greater in peace than in war. The American Presidency. Loxpon, Oct. 20, 1868. The London Times has an editorial to-day on the rumored withdrawal of the democratic candidates for the Presidency. The London Times says “the democrats will doubtless think it best to fight the battle to the end and lose, if “it must be, with Governor Seymour at their head, rather than at so late an hour take Mr. Chase for their leader. Although the power will be thrown into the hands of the radi- cals, General Grant is likély to act with more dis- crimination than the zealots of the party. He has evinced kindly feelings for the Southern people, and if the radical policy is to be pressed at the South it could not be executed under more favorable condi- tions than with General Grant at the head of the Executive.

St. Lours, Oct. 20, 1868, ‘The Sait Lake papers give the proceedings ofa General Mormon Conference, The Mormon Church nnanimonsiy agreed that the commercial intercourse with the Gentiles be restricted to the necessities of the Mormons, Those purchaging generally from Gentiles do so at the peril of expulsion from the Church.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 20, 1868. ‘The Democratic Change of Front—Cabiaet Officers Interested. Many ltttle developments made here within the past day or two indicate that the political hurly- burly is concentrating in New York city, The simul- taneous flight of a multitude of wire pullers in that direction and the fact that no less than three mem- bers of the Cabinet have found urgent business there are certainly significant of something more than usual. Yesterday the evening train carried off Secretary Seward and Attorney General Evarts, and Postmaster General Randall went on Sunday, The first goes to taik over thé interoceanic ship canal, the secoud to straighten out a few kinks in the whiskey fraud case now in preparation and the third to settle some matters in connection with mail Contracts; but all three of them will have a word to say about the new popular movement for a change of front. Secretary Seward and Attorney General Evarts are expected to return here to-morrow, ‘The Spanish Minister and the Home Giovern- ment. Despatches were received at the Spanish Legation here, from the home government, a day or two since, which, it is said, empower Sefior Coni to act as Provisional Minister of the Spanish government in the United States until the new government is de- termined upon and established, when permanent assignments will be made. Republican Celebration—Negre Disturbance Police Oficers Beaten. A torchlight procession paraded the streets to- night in honor of the recent republican triumphs. Several disturbances occurred along the line of march, in which two members of the police force of the district were severely beaten in endeavoring to preserve order. The disorderly parties were negroes separate from the procession, and the immediate cause of the difficulties was an attempt to demolish the fruit stands along Pennsylvania avenue when the parade was in progress, Officer Rath was struck sev- eral times with a club near the Treasury Department, while attempting to arrest one of the disorderly parties, Another officer of the police was severely beaten’ in the First ward while engaged in a similar duty. The report of riotous conduct soon reached the Police Headquarters, and Major Richards was promptly on hand to prevent further disturbance. At this hour—half-past eleven o'clock—there ure no further reports of difficulty, The wounded officers have received modical attention and are doing well. The Hitch in the Appointment of Supervisors. Secretary McCulloch and Commissioner Rollins still hold their protracted meetings for the purpose of converting nominations into appointments, but they make very slow work of it at the best. The last meeting, it is said, developed the fact that Mr. ‘Tracy, Who was recently ncminatea for Supervisor im New York, is entirely too radical to make a good supervisor, 80 we may regard lis case as settied. Mr. Noah, of Tennessee, is here with his friends, feeling around for the nomination of Supervisor for the district which includes that State, ‘There is no near prospect of hearing that another Supervisor has been confirmed. - The Radical Election Fund. The response to the call of the Republican Execu- tive Committee upon the cle rks and employs of the Executive Department is said to be both prompt and satisfactory. In the United States Treasurer's office there was contributed to-day $950, of which the re- doubtable Spinner contributed $300. 1t may not be amiss to add that tiissum was raised among the male clerks, the ladies not deeming themselves in- cluded in the invitation. Change in the Attorney Generals Oftice, Mr. H. A. Binckley, brother of Solicitor Binckiey, who bas for some time past been pardon clerk in the Attorney General’s ofice, tenriered his resigna- tion last week, which was accepted. It is underatood that Mr. Frank U. Stitt, who formerly held that Office, will be reappointed. The Successor of General Hooker. Quite a large number of applications have veen made for the office of Brigadier General in the United States army, made vacant by the ret/rement of General Hooker. Among the applicants are several civilians who were officers of the volunteer army during the late war. The probability is that Colonel and Brevet Major General Stoneman, now command. ing the First Military District, will be appointed to that position. The Indian War. Very few official despatches have been received in this city recently relative to the Indian war on the Plains. The army is known to be on the move’and in active pursuit of the hostile tribes; but no despatches concerning its movements have been reccived at headquarters here for two or three days. Army and Navy Gazette. The headquarters of the Fifth United States artil- lery have been tranaferred from Richmond, Va., to Fort Jefferson, Fla. Brevet Brigadier General Bur- ton, colonel of the Fifth artillery, 1s relieved from the command of his ment a ered to report for duty to General McDowell, commanding the De- tment of the East.

The Comptroller General will forthwith give a to the tax collectors of the several counties, SOUTH CAROLINA. Excitement Among the Negroes=Negre Mure dered=Moeting of Negro Citizens Called. CHARLESTON, Oct. 20, 1863, Considerable excitement prevails among the colored population of Charleston on account of the murder of Randolph, who was well known here. News was recetved here to-day that in Newbern, on Sunday, a party of negroes fired on two white men, wounding one of them. The next day a negro who was supposed to be the leader of the assailants ‘was shot and killed by unknown parties. This inte!- ligence has increased the excitement and a meeting of colored people is called for to-morrow night to decide what measures arc to be taken regarding these disorders. NEW YORK. Troy, Oct. 20, 1868, ‘The extensive Bessemer Steet Works of J, A. Gris- wold & Co., of this city, were destroyed by fire this morning. The fire caught in the roof at a time when the hydraulic pump of the mill was broken, and be- fore the steam fire engines could reach the scone, the works being situated on the outskirts of the city, the establishment was dest) .

WALLACK's TumaTRe.—There is a charm about this establishment which succeeds in drawing thither night after night large and brilliant audiences, No matter what way be on the bills the public wnder- stands that there is a company of unsurpassed ar- lists ready to atfort them amusement and entire satisfaction, In addition to the standard attractions of the place the announcement that Tobin's beautt- ful aud pleasing comedy of the “Ioneymoon’ Would be given last evening aided materially, per- haps, in filling the auditortum, This play possesses all'the requisites for bringing out fully the strength and excellence of a company such as Wallack’s. J. W. Wallack appeared in the leading part, Duke Aranza, and, in all justiee, it must be said he did not play it as it could or as it should be played, In- stead of the anit determined air and studied non- chalance which the author evidently intended to mark the part of the Duke, Mr. Wailack gave an intensely heavy, melodramatic representation, or rather es remy gy of the cl ter, mouth- ing and drawling out the beautiful sentiments which abound in the Mg el 50 much that, at times, evi- dences of general dissatisfaction were plainly per- ceptible among the audience. Rose Eytinge was charming in the charcter of Jullana, the sub- ject of the taming process, and read and acted in most finished style. Messrs, Fisher, Holland, Polk and oung, as weil as the ladies of the company, it is almost needless to say, were exceedingly truthful in their dialogue and business, Mr. J. H. Stoddart s personation of the mock duke Was one of the most super splocee of eccentric acting that could well be found, This fact the entire audience appreciated, and greeted his playing with such prolonged and genuine applause that he was re to appear and bow his acknowledg- ments before the performance could a geod The stage mechanics came in for a share of good na- tured applause for some very amusing but rather awkward blunders, allowing &@ wood scene to remain. some fifteen or twenty seconds after the characters had gone off, and then leaving two huge trees stand- ing in the parlor of the ducal palace until the laughter and applause cailed attention to the mistake. The play passed off, however, very pleasantly, and, save the drawbacks above alluded to, was pretty good. Tony Pastor's OPERA HovsE.—Another potpourri bill at this popular establishment this week has so far drawn the accustomed crowded houses and gives promise of like contmued favor. Variety is the motto of the management here and novelty its rally- ing cry. In addition to changes in the programme changes likewise occur in the performers. Constancy is no more a democratic virtue than inconstancy is an aristocratic vice. The east side forgets Its whilom favorites quite as readily as the west. Thus devotion and admiring regard which the wearers of fustian and munchers of peanuts here once bore towards the Engel has been as loyally transferred to Miss Alice Seidler and is quite as demonstratively exhibited. Billy Emmett, Frank Kerns and Johnny ‘Thompson gather the homage that was previously tendered their predecessors, new danseuses re- ceive the meed of approbation ever generously awarded the fair by their rough but impressionable devotees; and lest it be invidtously inferred it may be said in each case with equal merit. Tony Pastor sul reigns first in the hearts of his patrons, not alone for the varied feast of amusenient he presents, but for his own share in making it up. A new ex- travaganza, entitled “1968, or New York a Hundred Years Hence,” is the concluding piece this week. It is most amusing. Masical and Theatrical Notes. Mrs. Seott Siddons, the great granddaughter of the great Mrs. Siddons, who in her day was the ac- knowledged tragic queen of the English stage, gives her first readings before an American audience on Monday evening next at Steinway Hail. Mrs. Scott Siddons is a young lady of much promise, and is already possessed of an English reputation as an actress that seems to challenge criticisia, and it is but natural to expect that with such ancestry she must inherit great perception of dramatic art. At the early age of eleven years she made her first ap- pearance upon the stage in a small part in the French play of “Esther,” and succeeded in attracting con- siderable attention by her striking performance. Since then she has acted in English, French and German in the most difficult plays of Shakespeare, Schitier, Racine, Moliere, Cor- neille, &c. In person Mra, Scott Siddons bears a strong resemblance to Fanny Kemble in her outh. She has a fine figure and manner, the Kem- le face and the grace, intelligence and sympathetic character that go to make up the true hisirionic artist. Owing to the fact of our principal theatres having long since completed their arrangements and engagements for the entire season there will be no chance just at present of this great (ragedienne interpretii the tragic muse for our edification, surrounded with the paraphernaha of the stage; but having been pushed to the lecture hall she will interpret reopen ap and other illustrious authors unfortunately only from a reading desk. It is more than probable that Mrs. Scott siddons’ entertain- ments, though without the embodiment and color of the si will prove very successful. The sale of reserved seats and tickets will commence this morning at the box office, Steinway Hall, and at Schirmer’s music store, bf rivate telegram per Atlantic cable we learn th lies Kate teman made her appearanée on Monday evening last ut the Haymarket theatre, London, beiore an immense audience in the character of Leah. The house was crowded from parquet to gallery and the greatest enthusiasm was manifested on tie part of the audience, As this was Miss Bate- man’s first appearauce in London after an absence of three years, it is not at all strange that her ren} pearance before an English audience should partake of the nature of a grand ovation, for such in fact it was. ing her sojourn abroad Mixs Bateman has achieved a splendid series of triumphs and successes such as have rarely if ever before befallen to an Aine- rican actress, Herr Carl Formes, who for years was one of the attractive stars at the Catacombs in Fourteenth sireet, is reaping fresh laurels at the Dublin theatre. Of Ins Leporello the Daily Express observes:—“Herr Formes possesses more droliery than moat Leporel- los, but knows how to be solemn In the right place. He'was admirably suited to the pari.” The same paper speaks thus of his Figaro:—“ilis magnificent voice has lost none of its depth, purity a er, and, although he was suffering from a severe cold, his execution was highly effective. The character is one which affords @ severe test both of the vocal and histrionic powers, and its delineation was certainly such.as to raise Herr Formes in the estimation of nis admirers.’ ; The annual dramatic performance for the benefit of the Roman Catholic Orphan Asyinm will take place to-morrow at the Academy of Mustc. There will be an afternoon and evening entertainment, under the direction of Mr. N. B. Clarke, and as a good pre mme is offered it is expected that there will be a full house, The New York Alhambra is the name of anew place of ponte entertainment, located at 616 Broad- way, Which will be open on Monday evening next with a company. Mr. Harry McCarthy's per- sonation concerts, a style of entertainment novel in this city, will form the Brincipal attraction. The hall has been veatly fitted up and will doubtless prove an attractive resort. THE NEBRASKA ELECTION. Republican Majority 2,400. Sr. Lovts, Oct. 20, 1864, An Omaha despatch says oficial returns from twenty counties give a republican majority of 1,954, The counties to be heard from will make the majority not leas than 2,400, The republican gains are 1,640. In our last Congressional election the total vote was nearly 17,000, which shows that the vote in Nebraska has been almost doubled in two years. EUROPEAN MARKETS.

THE NATIONAL GAME. ‘The All England Eleven vs. the Unions, of Morrisanta. The announcement that nine of the Ail England Bleven would contend with the Union Club, of Morri- sania, in a game of base ball kad the effect of drawing to the St. George’s cricket ground at Hudson City, yes- terday, @ much larger and moro enthusiastic crowd than has been convened there since the day of the first appearance of the visiting Eleven. There was but little time lost im getting the ground prepared, and shortly after two o’clock the game was opencd with the “Bleven” at the bat. It would be useless to attempt to give the details of the game. It was a happy, hearty contest, and'the entire crowd entered into the spirit of the affaiy with good eneering and laughing and applauding earnestly and vociferously the good plays and the aux’ pas of either side, It Was very evident at times that the Unions were play- ing so that the contest would bemore even and, there- fore, more interesting. George’ Wright pitched dur- ing the greater part of the game, and pitched so that the “Eleveners” could hit and beeome more familiar ee bk of the conus ating It was not necessary, » for a vi players easy balls piched for them, and several specimens of sharp. pitch on the seventh i id alunou Toned 1 m1 an ough se the ball In with all his mat Shaw made a beaut hit to right fleld on which he got to third base. The “Eleveners” batted chledy to centre fleld. or right short, and five of them were put out at second base by being forced from first. ‘They do no? all seem to get an idea of the points of the game, but witha good captain to train thei they would, with a little practice, make splendid base ballists.’ Smith, who Played catcher, was the very figure of a first class player, He nipped epenesbing for which there was any chance, made several handsome catches of well judged foul bounds and allowed nothing to pass lum, Willisher afforded a great deal of amusement by his chagrined look when attempting to take foul balls on the bound and finding too late that they had @ peculiarly naughty way of bounding off just the way he didn’t expect them to go. In the infleld the playing of the “Eleveners” was super); their style of picking up hot grounders and catching the ball when thrown to them was very fine. In the outfleld, however, they were at sea, aud could not judge the files at all. Thelr admiration was frequently elicited by handsome catches made in the outfield on the Union side, and one catch espectally, made by Pabor, several declared was the fi catch they had ever seen. The bali was hit by Smith, and Pabor was obliged to run some distance, then jump as high as he could and catch the ball fying over his head. At the bat Shaw excelled in hitting, and in general play in the fleld Smith and Tarrant carried othe honot Both these men would make first class base bail layers. Jupp and Shaw would also do very well they were not quite so heavy. Tarrant created a deal of laughter and applause by a clean steal in from third on Wright and Birdsall. Willisher did some heavy and handsome hitting, but not quite as safe ag that of Shaw. Goldie’s play at first base was appre- clated by the visitors, but the rest of the nine, ex- cept Pabor in the fleid, did not play as weil as they could by any means. The Eleveners lost much by low, short throwing, being accustomed to throw towards the wicket ana generally at a short distance. When they would ae the ball up yesterday at times they would not always take time to gauge the dis- tance, but would throw swiftly and low, just so that the base bia ae could not get it. If they would re- Member that the ball can travel when thrown much faster than a man canrun they would take more time in throwing and the resuits of their fine fiela- ing would be more effective. ‘The score given below shows the number of f catches mace by each man, the times each was left on a base and the outs and runs:— ‘THR ELEVEN, F.L.O.
