ees of bespectacled old spinsters and burnt-grass widows who are now endeavoring to mould the pure thoughts of the young females of the rising generation into a hideous masculinity, and to encourage them to aspire to the places and to the prerogatives, and to don the tog- gery of those who, with a few honorable ex- ceptions, are entitled to wear the breeches in this our day. Verily, things are looking bad for morality in Massachusetts, Suppose Gil- more sets about getting up a jubilee in honor of the return of morality to New England? ‘The day may be far distant, but that’s no mat- ter. It shows the necessity of beginning the undertaking all the sooner. Let the rallying cries be, ‘No more female prize fights in Mas- sachusetts,” “Hurrah for the return of mo- rality to New England.” Seriously, as the case now stands, the authorities should take earnest and decided steps to stop those inhu- man exhibitions—it is degrading to beasts to call them beastly—else the consequences will be lamentable not only to the morals of the New England men but to the virtue of the New England women of the period. Amen! Imamigration—Interesting Facts. We published yesterday anumber of com- parative tables on immigration and of ex- tracts from the record of immigration for the thirteen years ending with December, 1868, recently completed by the statistical bureau in the Treasury Department at Washington. These tables and extracts are full of inte- resting facts. It appears that the immigrants landed at the port of New York from Janu- ary 1 to June 16 were 118,611; and that from the 16th to the 22d of June, or in six days, there have also arrived in this port 8,974 immigrant passengers in eleven differ- ent veasels, eight of them being steamships. Of these later arrivals there were about 1,000 Swedes, about 8,500 from Ireland and England, over 4,000 from Germany and the rest from other countries in Europe. Of the 118,611 who arrived this year previous to the 16th of June ‘‘the Germans were the most numerous of any one nationality, being over two-fifths of the whole; the sturdy yeomen from the ‘Green Isle’ come next; and even the ‘rock bound island,’ or that portion below the Tweed, sends us people enough to be the third on the list. The most re- markable-is the tremendous increase of im- migration from Sweden, running up from fifty in February to over 6,000 in May and to over 5,000 for the first half of the month of June.” The entire number of Swedes who came to this country during the twenty years from 1847 to 1867, both years included, was 26,565, and in 1868 and 1869, up to the last 16th of June, there arrived 28,949, or in less than eighteen months there have ‘come a larger number, by nearly 2,400, than in twenty years before that. This sudden increase of immigration from Sweden is most extraordinary. A comparison between the official figures of the general immigration from Europe at cor responding periods in 1869 and 1868 shows in 1868 an addition to our population, through this port, of 95,058 souls, or about twenty per cent less than during the same time in the present year. A similar comparison with the figures from January to the 16th of June, 1866, during which time the largest number of immi- grants arrived at this port of any year except the present, although the entire twelve months for 1867 gave the heaviest immigration of any yet known—242,731—gives an immigrant population of 114,086 souls, or over 4,000 less than this year, which justifies the belief that the total immigration at the harbor of New York city in 1869 will be the largest ever own in the history of the country. Aecording to the record just completed at the Statistical Bureau in Washington, it is said that at all the ports of the country, beginning with January, 1858, we have received 2,500,000 immigrants—people of our own Caucasian race—besides 65,000 Chinese. “Of the former 845,000 are from Germany, 560,000 from Ireland, 655,000 from Great Britain, 108,000 from British America, 58,000 from Sweden and Norway, 49,000 from France,” &c. Curious statistics are added respecting the various occupations of these immigrants, the vast majority of course be- longing to the working classes. in addition to the tables and Washington statistics of immigration, we published yester- day extracts from English journals relative to the rapidly increasing emigration from the Mersey during the week ending June 5, and several weeks previous. The London Morn- tng Post says:—‘‘Such an outflow of working- ‘men would be remarkable at any period of the year, but it becomes doubly so when it takes place at that season when employment is generally most plentiful and wages are at their highest rate. Nor is there any appearance of its decreasing, nor reason to believe that It is a sudden or fortuitous outburst. On the con- trary, in all parts of the country, save in the agricultural districts, there seems to be a dis- position to systematize emigration and to treat depletion as a recognized cure for the difficul- tios of the working classes.” The Morning Post disapproves of and deplores this emigra- tion. But the Liverpool Daily Post says that “the emigrants are impressed with their own condition, and just now they are the best judges of that condition.” Meanwhile, America offers to them all plenty of room, plenty of work, abundant subsistence and o frearty weloome.

Annual Regatta of Columbia Yacht Club— Fickle Weuther and a Drifting Race—The Gage, Onward and Betsey Victorious. Verily, “hard tines” was the order of the day. Chamelon-like, the phases of the tricksome element were variable 4s they were extraordinary, and the second annual regatta of the Columbia Yacnt Club was therefore not so brilliant and exciting as was reasonably anticipated. In fact the great ruling power, the Weather, was unpropitious, and the event, glorious as it otherwise might have been, was sadly marred by @ dull, heavy, misty and a thor- oughiy stupid atmosphere. Foggy, and very thick ‘at that, the morning opened with the most unpleas- ant symptoms, and weatherwise men were, at all events, right for once in prognosticating @ barren Prospect. lt was a pity, too, tor the Columbia yachtmen intended a gallant exhibition; put tne Most sanguine hopes are often nipped in the bud, and in common with all haman affairs the spirited members of the organization were obliged to resign themselves to fate. The Columbia Club, whose Nouse is situated at the foot of Filty-seventn street, North river, was organized over two years since, and was incorporated in December, 1868, numbering twenty-six active members and nearly a score of fast little yachts, Nothing could have caused more disappointment to their- spirited owners than the gloomy aspect of the weather yesterday. Arrayed in appropriate costume, they assembled at an early hour at the club house and gazed upon the horizon with & wistful gaze. I¢ was exceedingly misty, and there was but little prospect of blowing of. Post- ponement of the event was advocated by a few, but others, more hopeful, resolved to carry out the pro- gramme at all hazards, At ten o'clock most of the yachts had arrived at the anchor- age of the foot of Fifty-seventn street, and though not large in proportions, they looked exceedingly neat and handsome, their appearance being fine and picturesque. Each yacht was numbered by a large figure, the better enabling those witnessing the race to distinguish their posi- tions during the progress of the race, Towards eleven o'clock the scene began to be somewhat lively, notwithstanding the unfavorable prospects which the weather presented. Bunting of the most vartegated description was hoisted in all directions and @ crowd of spectators assembied at all observa- ble points to witness the start. ‘The course to be sailed over was from @ Siakeboat off the foot of Fifty-seventh street to a stakeboat off Mount St. Vincent, turning the same from east to west and re- turn, the distance in all being about twenty-two miles, the race to be made within eight hours. It was expecicd that the number of entries would havs been at least overa dozen, but only eight were in line at the time of starting. The following officers were In attendance during the preliminary arrange- ments:—Joseph A. Weaver, Commodore; 0. F. Tomp- kins, Vice Commodore; C. M. Armstrong, Secretary; G. W. Usborne, Treasurer, and W. H. Rowe, Mea- surer. The regatta committee consisted of Messrs. Cc. £#. Tompkins, Robert Wilson and J. T. Maney. ‘rhe club house was crowed to its utmost capacity, and the start was anxtonsly looked for- ward to by those interested in the event; tor the start, lazy as it might be, was something under such unfavorable circumstances. The allowance of time was one anda liaif minutes to the foot. The Gage was allowed two minutes and forty-five seconds, the Ethaline four minutes and a hall, the Onward two minutes, Uncle Len fitteen minates, the Betsey twen- ty-flve minutes and a half, and the others in a pro- ortionate ratio, The judges were at the home stake- at—Kaward Skidmore gnd Alderman W. Cregier— and at the upper stakeboat Captain Walden and Jéun Hoppgood. Suortly before twelve o’ciock the following yachts sept tn line:— IRST C Nan. Lellie...... Baith R. Gage Ethaline........ No. J. Skillen. +» James Skift, -George Osborne, Jonathan Mauey. THE RACK. Five minutes before twelve o'clock the signal to get ready was fired from the Club House, and three minutes after the yachta were ordered to de- part. Considerabie delay was exhibited in getting oi, but in a few minutes after the signal a slight breeze blew from the southwest. Scarcely, how- ever, had the yachts !eft their moorings when the wind died out, and a distressing calm ensued. The Lillie being the first to go off, tacked towards the westward, and managed to along ata slow followed in the same direction by the G and Lottie. The Ethaline 4 to the eastward, with the Onward in her wake, while the Rebecca, Betsey and Uncle Ben brought up the rear. For some time the Lillie continued to hug the Weehawken shore, closely pnrsued by the Gage and Lotue. The wind increased somewhat, and the Ethaline, still clinging to the western shore, went forward in lively style, followed at some distance by the Betsey, the Rebecca, in the middle of the river, being slightly in advance of both. The Onward, being beam and beam for some time with the Ethaline, changed ber course and tacked towards the east. Passing Bull's ferry the breeze freshened trom the southwest and quickened the speed of the yachts. The Lillie and Gage kept close together on the eastern side, but when passing Pleasant Valley the latter overhauled the former and went ahead. Apout this time, too, the Ethaline siipped up and the Rebecca passed her. On the opposite side the Onward led the Lottie, Uncle Ben still bringing up the rear. There was bu: little change in the — positions of the yachts until the approach to Mount St. Vin- cent. When the Onward made rapid strides towards the front, while the Ethaline made good way. But here a distressing duficuity arose. The stakeboat, named the Cauttion—and it certainly ought to be a caution to all stakeboats in future mtended to be stationed anywhere—had left the anchorage before the yachts, intending to be at Mount St. Vincent in order to take the time of the competitors passing around her, for she had conveyed the judges to the scene. Within two miles of where she should have been an hour previous she was overhauled by the Ethaline, Rebecca and Betsey, whiie the Gage, Lillie and Onward were certainly two miles ahead of her. It Was certainly @ curious predicament, and although the little crait made the best of it the wind was not sufficiently strong to bring her to the scene in sufficient time. The Ethaline was evidently in a dificuity, not knowing whether to pursne her rapid course or wait totil the stakeboat was properly anchored off Mount St. Vincent. The —fore- most yachts, however, had almost neared that = and seeing no stakeboat there on reaching jt returned, the Gage boegae the Lillie next and the Onward closely following. it was evidentiy the in- tention of the Ethaline to pass the stakeboat and thereby conscientiously comply witu the regulations. so she delayed her speed and awaited the anchorage of the boat and whirled around it in excellent style; but her opponents not naving so remained were now far ahead—in fact, out of sight, owing to the dense mi: which prevailed. For about six tacks towards home she made the most rapid progress, overhauling poor Uncle Ben in @ very astonishing manner and quickly gatning on the others; but the hopes of all were suddenly avandoned, A dead calm ensued—as dead and as dull a one as ever happened on any yachting event, ‘The remamder was exceedingly monotonous, for the yachts drifted lazily along towards the home stake boat, The foremost yachts had certainly the ad- vantage, since the wind had not completely died out before they were very near the staxepoat. Those in the rear were, consequently, the sufferers. The following tline was recorded for the final entry of HM. S. . 5 00 00 Rebecca + 6 08 00 Betsey.. The first prize was awarded to the G second to the Onward and the third to the e, the etsey, being the three yachts of their respective classes first round the home stakeboat. Had the Ethaline not delayed her speed in waiting for the stakeboat to anchor off Mount St. Vincent she would certainiy have arrivea much sooner, evident from the excel- lent display on the return. The Lottie abandoned the race when near Fort Lee; and the Uncle Ben, though struggling manfully all the way, was becalmed, with the Ethaline, about three miles from home. On the whole the race at times was exceedingly well con- tested; but the surrounding circumstances of the event prevented the splendid display anticipated. The Brooklyn Union Regatta. Under the auspices of the Brooklyn Yacht Club the great Union Regatta, for which nearly haifa hundred yachts are entered, takes place to-day. It is among the greatest yachung events of the year, and will doubtless attract that attention which it most unquestionably merits. Yachting to-day is among the foremost pastimes of the country— a tact evident by the enormous increase of vessels of that description within a comparatively short space of time. A grand exhibition ts anticipated to- day, and should the weather prove i tious the vast concourse of spectators who will doubtless wit- ness the regatta will have reason to be satisfied that the science of yachting in this country 1s rapidly on the increase. “As previously mentioned the Middle- vey the members of the club and friends to the exhibition, the steamer Stamford veing char- tored to leave the foot of Thirty-fourth street for those who desire to witness the race, hat on board 4 band of music and other accessories. was published yesterday a list of the numbers which each yacht wili carry in order to be distinguished, but the followt alterations have since been made, viz.:—White Cap, No. 18; Agnes, 14; Storm King, 15 and Greene, 16. ie following additional regulations have been adopted:—Yachtw will steer west of Fort Lafayette both outward and homeward bound.

A brilliant adele May be looked fexvennd te NARRAGANSET PARK, &. {, First Day of the Meeting—T wo Races Yester- day—Heavy Track but Good Sport. PRovipeNce, June 23, 1869, Owing to the prevaleuce of a heavy rain storm on Tuesday, the trotting announced to take place at Narraganset Park, Cranston, was postponéd until this afternoon, There waa a numerous attendance at the Park, the weather being fine, but the track it- self was 80 very heavy in consequence of the storm that fast time could not reasonably be looked for. Two trots came off, being numbers one and two on the programme, the first being for @ purse of $1,500 for ail horses that had never trotied for money, mile heats, in harness, The second race was for trotting stallions, under the same conditions as regards distance and the way of go- ing, for ® premium of $2,000, Out of the eight horses entered for the first race, only Locust and Mr. Reed's bay gelding appeared at the post, the others having declined we contest for reasons beat known to their owners, ‘This race was won by Locust, who took the second, third and fourth heats without any great effort. ‘fhe ‘ime made was rather indifferent, the best heat being trotted in 2:4434. The stallion race wasa very fast one, when the heavy track ts taken into considera- tlon, the time being 2:30—2:20—2:28 3, bus nothing lke what it would have been under more favorable conditions. Rhode Island and Bashaw, Jr., were the only two im the race, George Wilkes, the other entry, having declined the contest. Basnaw, Jr., might also as Well have declined, a8.Re was so lame that all chances of nis winning the race were out of the question from the beginning. He did better, however, than was ‘expected of him under the cir- cumstances, The following are tne details of the trotting, beginning with the FIRST RACK. First Heat,—But two of the eight entries came to the post—Locust and Reed’s gray gelding—the lawer being the favorite at about two to one. Locust won the pole.

The horses had @ pretty even start. They went around the turn side and side for some dis- tance, when the gray gelding broke up and gained one length. He broke a second time before reaching the quarter pole, but passed that point half a lengta in front of Locust, in forty-taree seconds. Gol down the backstretch the horses were head an head for the greater of the way, but before reaching the half-mile pole the bay gelding broke up and passed the pole three-quarters of a length ahead, in 1:22. On the lower turn the bay ing drew away from Locust, and was two lengths in front at one time, but as they came into the home- wirevch Locust was at his wheel. Coming up the homestretch the bay broke up, when Locust took the 1ead aud came ina winner ot the heat by two lengtus, in q Third Heat,—There was no betting now on the race, the backers of the bay gelding having closed their books.

First Heat.—Bashaw, Jr., and Kuode Island came to the post, George Wilkes being withdrawn. Rhode Island was the favorite at 100 to 40, and the betting on the result was very brisk. Bashaw, Jr., Was not in condition, and his owner would not back him to a large amount, the betting on Lim be- ung principally gone by outside parties. Both stat- lions looked well, but Bashaw was hitching bad.y behind and evincing decided lameness. At the first attempt the horses got away, Khode Isiand having the pole and half a length the best of the send om. They went into the turn in this way, but Rhode Island broke up and lost: several lengths. Bashaw, Jr., led to the quarter pule four lengths tn thuirty-eigut seconds. Gotng down the backstretch Bashaw, Jr., kept the gap open until near the haif-mile pole, when he broke up and lost a length or more, passing that point in 1:14. On the lower turn Bashaw, Jr., made several skips, and at the three-quarter pole was two lengths ahead. Khode Island broke up as he caine into the homestretch, bat did not jose @ yard by the accident. Coming witn a rush he gained gradually on Bashaw, Jr., and won the heat by half a length. Time, 2:30, which was considered good time oo such @ heavy track as that was. Second Heat.—Knode Island was offered at very long odds, but there were no takers, When Ba- shaw, Jr., came on the stretch to score it wus dis- covered that he had cuffed his knee and cut his quarter in the previous heat, and his chances of win- ning looked very dubious. The horses made a very equal start, but as soon as they left the score B: shaw, Jr., broke up ann lost a iength. He trotied t hobbiing manner around the turn. bat still gaining a litvie on Khode Island, who the quarter pole in thirty-seven seconds, a little over half a lengtu in front. Goimg down the backstretch Bashaw, Jr., took sides with Rhode Isiand, but breaking was one length behind at the havd-mlle in 1:18. bashaw, on the outside, closed up on the lower turn, so that he was at Khode Istand’s head, and they trotted side by side until making the turn into the bomestretch, where Riode Isiand gained a trifie, but when they struck straight work they were'soon side and side again, and the struggle up the stretch was highly exciting. At the distance stand they were on even terms, but there Bashaw broke up and fell off alength. He rallied again, and hobbling along came to the stand close up. Rhode Island won the heat by a neck aud shoulders, Time of the heat, 2:29. Third Heat.—RKhode Island had the best of the send off. As soon as the word was given Bashaw broke up and lost a length, but trotted rapidly atter- wards, Atthe quarter pole Rhode Island led by a neck only, in thirty-six seconds. Bashaw broke up again on the backstretch ana lost a lengta. At the half-mile pole Rhode Island ed «three-quarters of a length in 1:04.

ANOTHER SCANDAL CASE IN CENTRAL NEW YORK. (From the Cortiand (N. Y.) Journal, June 20.} The quiet village of Homer has been disturbed for several days past by a genuine case of crim. :on. One of the parties is a professional gentleman, and moves in good society. He has been married about eight years, and ia the father of one chiki about three years old. It has been known for 4ome time that he has not lived happily witn his wife; yet they occupied the same house, and pubic attention was not attracted. About two weeks ago the wife went on @ visit to Cayuga county. During her absence a female friend wrote her that her husband received at his own house the visit of a young married lady of questionable character, and that if she wished to have ocular demonstration to ‘‘come and see." The wife came to Homer secretly on Sunday last, accompanied by an uncle. The house of the husband was watched and the young lady was seem to enter. The wife, uncie and two female iriends noiselessly came to the back door and entered the house, went to the busband’s room, found it locked and demanded admittance. No answer returned, but a good many hurried movements made. The uncle got a ladder and looked through the window over the door and discovered the young lady in bed and the husband sitting comfortably in 4 chair, We need not picture the remainder of the scene. There was the usual amount of excitement and tears, with now and then around oath. The result was the wife immediately commenced an action for a dl- vorce, and tue case 18 now in court.
