ciated by the medical profession. The public has taken an increasing interest in it since the completion and beautifying of the equestrian roadsin our magnificent Park. It is fast be- coming a most fashionable and agreeable out- door amusement for ladies and gentlemen. For years past two or three riding academies, with excellent rings and other requisite facili- ties for instructing pupils and training horses, have flourished in New York. But a club will Supply many additional advantages, and it is somewhat surprising that in a city abounding in social, literary, chess, skating, boating, yachting, horse racing and other clubs no riding club has hitherto been founded. Mr. Bruzzesi’s projected ‘New York Riding Club” is not unlikely to be popular, Perhaps even some velocipedemaniacs may be tempted to Join it. Further Developments of the Union Pacific Railroad War. The receiver of the Union Pacific Railroad property has brought action against Henry S. Crane, the confidential secretary of the vice president of the road. Crane, it has been dis- covered, has a larger bank deposit than most clerks can boast, amounting, it is said, to nearly five millions of dollars. The plaintiff alleges that this large amount in Crane’s name at the Corn Exchange Bank is the proceeds of bonds issued by the United States to the Union Pacific Railroad Company, and is, in fact, the property of said company. The amount has been embargood by Judge Barnard, and thus one more card added to the pack which is now in the hands of the lawyers, ready for the deal among the sharpers. Judge Barnard has refused to pay any attention to the decision of Judge Blatch- ford, and in the closing sentence of his ruling of the 8th inst., with reference to Judge Blatchford’s decision, keenly censures the Union Pacific Railroad managers, saying :— “The defendants have suffered nothing but from their contumacy and refusal to allow the transactions of the two companies concerned to be made known. In July of last year an injunction was granted prohibiting the removal beyond the jurisdiction of this court of their books and property then within it, If I rightly understend the affidavit used on Tues- day the defendants now avow that they removed a great portion of the property for the very purpose of avoiding a receiver. The company’s officers and clerks have concealed themselves or kept out of the way. Ham shut himself up in the safe. Under all the circum- stances I have no means of asserting effectually the jurisdiction of the court but by appointing and continuing a receiver. I have, further, only to say that if the defendants desire to take further evidence as to their alleged con- tempt they may have a reference to do so. If they do not desire it 1 shall proceed with the case.” Thus the war rages. The two courts are rivals for the command of the battle field. The two companies, the Union Pacific and the Crédit Mobilier, fear the consequences of the exposé with which they are threatened, and are hiding their funds under the names of con- Gidential clerks and removing everything of value out of the jurisdiction of the courts of this State. It certainly does not look well that. any company which pretends to be doing an honest business should wish to hide its trans- actions from the light. Mr. Howard tried to have a resolution passed in the Senate on the 9th instant to appoint a commission to examine into the affairs of the two Pacific railroads ; but Mr. Sherman brow- beat him down, and the Senatorial railroad rings carried their point. So the game moves on. The railroad lawsuit is simply a fight between swindlers for the spoils. In the rough and tumble struggle very much dirt will be thrown about, and he who can keep it out of his eyes will see some extraordinary exposi- tions of how the wholesale spoliation of the government and the people is managed, England and Russin fn Asia, One of the most remarkable developments of the present times is the position which England and Russia have respectively assumed in Central Asia. When England and all West- ern Europe were filled with wonder and amaze- ment at the success of the British forces in India; when England set the world agog by bringing the greatest of all the Proconsuls she ever had—Warren Hastings—to trial for high crimes and misdemeanors; when even later she, along with France, went to war with Russia, who could have imagined, or rather who did imagine, that ata date so near Eng- land should begin to be afraid of her Northern rival? Time brings about strange results. The result to which we cali attention is one of the strangest. Great Britain for a time had it all her own way in Asia. The Dutch and the French were too weak to question her right, and to resist her power they soon found was impossible. While, however, Great Britain had it all her own way inthe Indian Peninsula, while successive hordes of officials were fat- tening upon the spoils, while no foe was dreamt of but the poor Sepoy and the proud Brahmin, Russia, quietly and little resisted, was pushing her conquests and making herself mistress of the entire North of Asia. With one arm virtually on the North Atlantic and another arm really on the North Pacific Rus- sia began to ask herself why she should not spread a little to the south. To the south she has come. Down through Persia, down through Tartary, down through Turkestan, the ancient home of the Mohammedan con- querors of Europe, down to the confines of Afghanistan she has at length pushed her way. But # narrow strip of land not many hundred miles in extent lies between the Rus- slan outposts in Bokhara and the British out- posts in the Punjab, The two greatest Powers of the West now feel themselves face to face. Nothing like this has yet happened in history.. Greece and Rome made their con- quests in the East; but Greece in her day and Rome in hers had no European foe to dread, The strength of the world had not yet com. pletely left its first home; it has long since been marching westward; but itis a curions and instructive fact that the two great pioneers of Western civilization should meet in the East, and that it should now bogin to be more than @ presumption that the contest for the world's supremacy should take place on those plains where Alexander wept because nature rather than man opposed his further advance, A collision between Englaud least rank among the millionnaires of the world.

Our interests in Asia increase year by year. Already in Eastern Asia they begin to be greater than any European Power. In the approaching conflict, therefore, we cannot afford to be indifferent spectators. That the conflict is approaching is unquestionable; the question is how it will issue. In the issue we are deeply interested. A collision in Asia be- tween two European Powers must result in one of two ways—in a compromise orin a general resurrection of the Asiatic races. Such a rising might be a gain to civilization, might be again tothe great American Union; but it might not, The difficulty lies here. Time must be allowed to solve it. TELEGRAPHIC NEWS FROM ALL PARTS OF THE WORLD THE CIVIL WAR IN CUBA. Reported Capture of a Supply Train and Defeat of Spanish Troops by General Quesada. Spanish Outrages on the Ameri- can Flag. Rumored Attempt to Assassinate the Vice- roy of Egypt. A late despatch from London informs us that a despatch from Alexandria states that another attempt had been made on the life of the Viceroy of Egypt. There ts a theatre in Alexandria of some years’ standing. It was for some time the only theatre in the country, an older theatre in Cairo having perished for want of support, A new theatre has been for a certain period in course of erection in Cairo. The despatch says that the attempt on the life Search of the Ship Lizzie Major and Seizure of Two of Her Passengers. Arrest of Five Passengers of the Steam- ship Eagle at Havana. The Mines in Nevada Still of the Viceroy was discovered in the theatre, Burning. but whether in Alexandria or in Cairo we are left to conjecture, It appears that a loaded CUBA. bomb was found under the chair set apart for his Highness, but that before it had time to explode it was discovered and safely removed. This is the second attempt on the life of the Viceroy within the last two years by similar means, although in different circumstances. In the former instance, on a festival day, and in one of the thousand narrow streets which are characteristic of the Egyptian capital, a loaded weapon was dropped on the carriage of his Highness as the cortége passed along. It is not insignificant that in the former case and in the latter the lethal weapon proved harm- less, We have not yet had time to forget that many highly respectable residents in Egypt, when they heard of the former attempted assassination a little later than we knew of it in New York, treated the whole thing with contempt, regarding it as a clumsy trick of the Viceroy himself or some of his French ad- visers, It will be very hard for some honest people who know how things are managed in that fine country to believe this fresh report is not the report of a fresh trick. All those who know anything of Egypt know that the Viceroy is in fresh trouble. He only a few weeks ago suppressed one of the one or two French journals which the French, with large government help, have managed to start in Egypt. The cause of this suppression was a few pointed and well directed attacks on the Viceroy’s policy as indicated by a recent speech in the Egyptian Chambers. The sup- pression has offended the French residents, called forth remonstrances, and, to a dead cer: tainty, representations to the French govern- ment. It is clearly the Viceroy’s interest to encourage the feeling that conspirators are at work and that he and the govern- ment are in danger. He is not igno- rant of French customs, He knows how the Bonapartes have saved themselves by tricks of this sort. Of all natural things it is one of the most natural that he should find out a means of proving to Louis Napoleon that trouble exists, The bomb below his seat was a3 good a device as any other. It will tell upon many, but it will not deceive all. Egypt cannot be governed forever on the principles of Ismail Pacha; but Ismail Pacha will not fail to make the best of his position. If he and his heirs are not to continue to suck the sap out of the rich Egyptian soil they will at Rumored Victory of the Insurgent General Quesada—The Executions at Havana—Vole unteers Fire Upon the Crowd—Eight Pere sons Killed, HAVANA, April 10, 1869, It is currently reported here to-day that a column of troops sent by General Lesca from Puerto Prin- cipe to the port of Santa Corva, on the south coast of the island, for supplies, has been deteated by General Quesada, with immense, losses and the con- voy captured. ‘The two prisoners executed by the garrote to-day were Francisco Leon, who had been in the United States and declared his intention to become an American citizen, and Augustin Madina, a Cuban. The concourse was immense, and the force on duty was drawn from the Volunteer infantry and cavalry, Leon was very manly in his bearing, and made a speech to the multitude, closing with the cry of Viva la Independencia. Responsive cries were heard in the crowd, upon which, the volunteers fired upon it, killing eight persons and wounding several. A few shots were fired by the crowd in return, which wounded several of the volunteers. Passers by were compelled by the volunteers to cry “Viva Espafia.” The crowd soon dispersed and quiet was restored, The United States steamer Nipsic is at Cienfuegos.

FRANCE. The time has come when, by some wise arrange- ment equally convenient to all parties, the European nations should let Great Britain have complete coutrol of the valley of the Nile. The Policy of the Empire, Paris, April 10, 1869, In the Senate to-day the defensive measures pro- posed by the government were generally approved, Marshal Neil said it was the duty of the country in time of peace to secure its safety. Tbe army might be placed on a peace footing, and, if it were needed, could rapidly pass to a war footing. In the Corps Legislatif M. de Lavalette made a long Peaceful speech. He concluded with the following words:—“It is the policy of France to maintain resolutely a dignified peace.” SPAIN. The Great Gridiron Railroad Scheme. Swiftly and surely toward consummation is progressing the projected colossal gridiron railroad scheme before the State Legislature. The bill embodying this scheme, as is well known, authorizes the laying of a railroad through Broadway, Fifth, Madison and Lex- ington avenues. Not content with choking up these avenues, the only great arteries of city travel that have been spared the vandal encroachments of our city railroad ‘‘rings” ; not content with defacing Broadway and for- ever taking from it its magnificence, its glory and its marked individuality; not content with marring the splendid beauty of Fifth, Madison and Lexington avenues, the only remaining unobstructed highways for carriages going to the Park and in future to seek the further drive of the Bloomingdale road, they, must gobble up Wall street, Maiden lane, John street and Fulton street, as also Dey and Cortlandt streets; they must swallow up Fourteenth street; they must make other railroads com- mon property; they must absorb the omnibus lines, and, in fact, there is no limitation to their franchise. All previous railroad schemes dwindle into insignificance by the side of the stupendous and appalling privileges embraced in this grant, x Proposed Amendments to the New Constitution, Mapnip, April 10, 1869.

Banquet to Charles Dickens. Liverroor, April 10—Midnight, The banquet to Charles Dickens occurred at St. George's Hall, in this city, this evening. About 700 gentlemen sat down, and there were besides many epectators. The hall was gracefully decorated with flags and banners The proceedings were charac- terized throughout with good feeling and en- thusiasm, Sir Henry Houghton and Mr. Hepworth Dixon pre sided, After the usual toasts had been drank Lord Daffertn made a pleasant speech, He regretied that Mr. Dickens had not entered the ficld of politics. He would have been a power in the House of Com- mons and a fellow peer of Macaulay. Lord Lytton at length, in glowing terms, proposed the health of Mr. Dickens. Mr. Dickens arose and with much emotion re- sponded. He felt, he said, that he was unable to do Justice to bis feelings, Liverpool, after London, was aiways foremost in his estimation, She was always ready to respond open-handed, spontaneously and munificently to all appeals for aid to art and litera- ture, Relative to the remarks of Lord Dufferin, Mr. Dickens said that after mature deliberation be had decided to stand or fall by literature, and not enter politica, Thus far he had not regretted his decision. Anthony Trollope also responded to a sentiment. He eulogized Washington Irving, Mr. Motley and the American people, The latter were always will- Ing to recognize publicly the honor that was due to literary men, He closed by hinting that the aj ointment of Charies Dickens as Minister to Wash- ugton would be beneficial to both countries.

THE DISASTER IN NEVADA. The Fire at Gold Hill Still Baging—The Mince and Machinery in Danger=Unsuccess- fal Attempts to Extinguish the Flamee— Funeral of the Victims of the Disaster. ‘ q SAN Francisco, April 9, 1869," The fire has raged all day among the mines at Gold Hill, The opinion prevails there that the mines themselves are now in danger, having been seriously injured. The heat is so great from the Crown Point shaft that the buildings and hoisting works are considered endangered. The shafts of the Yellow Jacket, Kentuck and Crown Point mines have been floored and pipes inserted and steam forced down with the hope of smother- ing the flames. It is thought the fire {s burning on the 800 feet level of the Kentuck mine, having been forced by the heavy explosion. No more bodies have been removed trom the burning mines to-day. The origin of the fre is doubtful. Some allege It Was carelessness on the part of the men at work in the mines; others that 1t was caused by ignition on fire aaa and hence the explosion, Every fag u Virginia City and at Gold Hul nas been placed at hall-mast and hundreds of persons followed the funerai procession to the churches and cemeteries.

When we say that the former was played by Mr. Richard Hoffman, and the latter, of course, by the unrivalled orchestra of 100 performers, under the direction of the prince of conductors, Carl Bergmann, it 1s a sufilcient guarantee for them. Mr. Hoffman’s style is emi- nently tender and poetic, and beneath his fingers the plano becomes etherealized. Some might like a lit- tle more power and broadness of conception, but none will deny him a grace and delicacy that reach the heart of the hearer. Mendelssohn would have selected him from a score of virtuosi to give expres- sion to his beautiful imaginings. In response to an “uamistakable” encore he piayed a simple, unpre- tending iittle melody in a style and with an expres- s10n 80 unusual in the pianists of the present day that he was very near subjecting himself to the penalty of another encore. ‘he symphony Was almost periect in its rendering, and its lights and shades were fully brought out by the orchestra, Tne Philharmonic artists seem to be always at bome when Beethoven ison the bills, and never miss a feature of the great master. ‘The objectionable features to which we reierred were Liszi’s symphonic poem, ‘Ideale,”’ and Wag- ner’s “Faust” overture. We might add, besides, the “Salve Maria,’’ by Rizzo, and another song given by Madame Gazzaniga. Neither was of a degree of merit sufiicient to entitle itto a hearing before such an audience and in company with such @ society. The “An! mon fils’? was bet- ter, and was acceptably rendered by the prima donna in question. Wagner seems in his overture to have imbued all the instruments of the orchestra with the spirit of Mephistopheles, and the consequence naturaily is—pandemonium.
