Lonpon, August 6, 1869, The seizure by the American government of the gunboats building for Spain at different points in the United States has elicited the following comments from the London newspapers:— The Morning Star (radical organ) says that the Amé¢rican government having exhibited vigor in favor of Spain by enforcing the neutrality 1aws has now proceeded equally vigorously against Spain and for the same cause. The writer regards the recog- nition of Cuba by Peru as tll advised, though spirited. In spite of all the predictions the Cuban insurgents seem to be able to hold their ground. The wkispers of the cession of Cuba to the United States are now louder than ever. The Americans have ~de- Bired to come into possession of that island for the past twenty years. Now the obstacle of slavery having been removed, if a fair purchase can be effected, all the parties may be satisfied with the arrangements which will give another State to the American Union and remove the great perplexity from the arena of Spanish politics. The News concludes its article as follows:— Considering all the circumstances which make it dificult for Europeans to keep hold of their unwil- ling colonists in America, and reflecting that Cuba is now in insurrection, Spain will be fortunate if $20,000,000 ever reach Madrid as the price of Cuba.

Many came with guns; most all with concealed arms, pis- tols, knives and razors, Nothing occurred to disturb the harmony of the meeting, except the inflamma- tory talk of sqme of the speakers, until about ten o'clock, when a jocose dispute arose between two citizens on a subject entirely foreign to politics or the meeting attracted some attention, and in pressing up to see what it was about a white man accidentally trod on the foot of a negro.

WASHINGTON, August 6, 1869. Effects of Cabinet Interference in the Tennes- see Election—Johnson’s Return to the United States Senate Secured. Prominent Tennessee republicans, supporters of Governor Senter, but strong opponents of Andrew Johnson, write to their friends in Washington city that Secretaries Boutwell and Creswell’s letters en- dorsing Stokes have contributed targely to the pro- abilities of Johnson’s election to the United States Senate. These letters of endorsement had the ef- fect of exasperating those republicans who sup- ported Senter in good faith upon the piatform aud principles enunciated by the Cnicago Convention. ‘They assert that they have always, in connection with Senter, stood, and now stand, upon that plat- form, while Boutwell and Creswell have sought to ignore ft 80 far as the franchise question is con- cerned. These republicans say that Andrew Johnson and bis friends were shrewd enongh to take advantage of the fuct that these two Cabinet oifloers were arraylng the administration against the most prominent of Grant's supporters in Tennessee, and that therefore they were to be whipped in like a set of curs upon the caprice of ambitious aspirants for the Presiden- tla succession in 1872, It being well understood that Andrew Johnson would be the most obnoxtous pergon to General Grant and his Cabinet that could be sent from Tennessee to the United States Senate, a sympathy tor Johnson’s success tn that regard has been aroused on the part of prominent conservatives who would otherwise have opposed nim with strong probabilities of success, This sympathy for Mr. Johnson has also been materially heightened from the fact that General Grant has neglected or refused to contradict or qualify the terms of these mis- chievous letters of the Secretary of the Treasury avd Postmaster General.

Shingle Manufacturers Exempt from Taxe ation. . The subject of taxing manufacturers of shingles on sales, which has been before the Revenue Bureau lately, has been decided in favor of exempting the same, In accordance with the ruling of ex-Commis- sioner Rollins, The point raised by the assessors in the case was, that whon shingles are sawed out they are completed and ready for consumption, and, there- fore, are manufactured lumber; but the Bureau ex- empts boards and laths from tax precisely in this con- dition, because they may yet pass through second hands before they are completed or manufactured. The Commissioner thuught the distinction too fine to be justly made, and, therefore, confirmed the pre- vious ruling. Trausfer ot Supervisors. Under the present arrangement of transferring Supervisors of Internal Revenue from one district to another, the Commissioner has decided to assign Supervisor Ira M.

His wife not being aware of the fact kindied a fire to smoke some bacon, and the bonds were reduced to a cinder. They came to the Redemption Bureau to-day to be ex- changed in so dilapidated a condition as to almost defy identification, but the experts of the Treasury have managed to paste the charred bits together so as to make out the amount without loss to the owner, who will ina few days receive equal value in bonds of more promising appearance.

The beautiful grounds which surround his mansion will, tn all probability, be visited, and when the works of na- ture and art have been inspected and appreciated the guests will doubtless be the recipients of a hearty welcome within doors. Glen Cove will be alive to-day, and the grand feet of schooner yachts will be gazed at by critical and admiring eyes.

Itis expected that a regatta will take place outside the harbor; indeed, it would be unustial if there should not be one, and the inhabi- tants, therefore, will be prepared for the wonted brilliant display of the fleet, Several yachts belong- ing to the club will join the club at Newport, so that it will be considerably augmented and the effect will increase Cotas ao ‘The races contemplated at Newport will be for plate, and a large number of entries 1s anticipated, so that on the whole the dis- play will unquestionaply be equal to those that on former occasions have 80 favorably characterized the club, The squadron will start for Holmes’ Hole either on Friday o: Saturday morning, or perhaps a day later, according to circumstances, and on the return will visit New Bedford. The enthusiastic manner in which the hospitable and kind-hearted inhabitants of New Beaford ever welcome the ofticers of the club and their palatial craft has certainly readered this city perhaps the most favorite resort of the club on its annual craise. Moreover the authorities of New Bedford have ever displayed the greatest cordiality towards the officers, and manifested the utmost wil. lingness to encourage ths splendid amusements and entertainments afforded by tne club, as well as extending facilities for their proper production. On the whole New Bedford is one of the most important aces to be visited; and that a grand regatta will he given there is almost a certainty. It 1s needless to state that the waters about New Bedford afford a “most delightful ground for sport of the kind, A large number of Leo por owners méditate a trip to Boston when the fleet shall nave been dis- banded by the Commodore, A sail in that direction will be not oaly a novelty, but extremely desirable, It will doubtless be marked by much pleasure and excitement; for it is not at all improbable that a re- gatta may take place there. In addition to the many attractions which will characterize the annual cruise it is contemplated to have a number of boat races among the crews of the winning yachts, and pursea will ven for competition, Such a course would not only afford great satisfaction on accoynt of the pleasure to be derived from the contests, but it would also tend to stimulate the men to greater rivalry and exertion, Altogether o brillant cruise may be expected.

Yachting Notes. ‘The race between the Peeriess (Feiix O'Connor) and Flying Cloud (James F. Morgan) for $1,000 will take place on Wednesday next. The course will be from a stakeboat off the Manhattan Olub, at Totten- ville, Staten Island, to another stakeboat ten miles to windward and back. It should be mentionea that the Apollo did not voluntarily haul out of the race at the Union regatta given by the Bayonne Yacht Ciub on Tuesday. She was disabled by the loss of her jib when her pros- pects were very favoravle, AMUSEMENTS. CENTRAL PARK GARDEN—THOMAS’ TESTIMONIAL Brngrit.—The New York public gave last night an unmistakable proof of the high esteem in which they hold 1heodore Thomas by cfowding his benefit at the above beautiful garden. It was an audience algo such as would compare favorably with any of those of Philharmonic or Academy standard in fash- ion and appreciative musical powers. The pro- gramme was one of rare excellence, comprising several novelties. A military band was added to the superb orchestra, which was increased to ite full strength for the occasion. Levy was, of course, the star of the evening, and the magic notes of his cornet reverberated through en and halls, call- ing up memories of the palmiest days of Koenig. The new bailet music of Faust, the enchant waltzes of Strauss, the grand ‘Jubilee Overture’? o! Weber, eons of Wagner's happiest works and some quaint German dances by Borgiel were special orchestral features. It would be difficult tn Europe or America to match Central Park Garden for real enjoyment during the summer. Musical and Theatrical Notes.

No Attempt to Rescue Him—The Well Filled Up. {From the Leavenworth (Kansas) Times and Conser+ vative, July 29.) From ©. J. Hanks, Esq., route mail agent on the Kansas Paclitc Railroad, we learn tuat the well beit sunk at Monument Station by the company, cave 10 on Saturday last while two men were working in it, burying one, while the other escaped by seizing a rope, and was drawn up. It seems that the work- men had sunk the weil 160 feet and were goin through a strata of sand; owing to the scarcity a umber the curbing had been neglected tor thirty feet above, and being thus insecure, without a mo- ment’s watning the well caved in, burying one man under several feet of earth and sand. The workmen above could distinctly hear his cries for help, and distinguished the words, “don’t leave me.’ Yet, incredible as it may seem, his companions made no attempt to release him, alleging as an excusé that they were afraid of further caving in of the well. More horrible still, after his ories had ceased and it was evident that life hud fled, these inhuman mon- sters filled up the well, forevér entombing a hum: being whoin they mig%t have rescued, or have al least obeyed tho common dictates of humanity and have attempted to save. st THE WEEKLY HERALD.
