My appointment to this mission was owing in a great measure to my well known attachment to and dese to pro- mote the blessings of well regulated liverty, upon which, thanks to the true patriotism and unflinching valor of Genet Grant, the government that has so honored me now securely reposes, and tt is for you, citizen President, to say Whetner I have deviated from these prin- ciples while residing near your government, Ever since my arriva! in your country I have done all in my power to foster and durably cement a genuine friendship becween the two sister republics. I[ sincerely desire an indissoluble connection between the United States of America and the United States of Colombia on terma of peifect eyualily leas than which generous minds will not offer nor brave and free ones be willing to receive. I also wish that harmony and peace may forever moie dwell among your brave and intelligent people.

My country cannot forget that during her late struggle for national life the government and people of the United States of Colombia spoke out in bold and feariess language in favor of the unity and integrity of the great North American republic as affording the best security for the strength and safety of Soutn Ameri- can independence, In conclusion, may the Ameri- cans, North and South, march along, hand linked in hand, the broad pathway of bumanity and ctviliza- tion, increasing from age to age in blessings ana prosperity.

The reasons for which you came here, and the careful attention which you have contributed to maintain the relations between Colombia and your country on the footing of perfect aig | prove that you are worthy of being in ber ser- vice, because those only deseive the honor of serving their country, who kuow how to open by spontaneous deeds of jusiice @ clear way to her fame.

The peace, Mr. Minister, between the two republics and the growing relations which their com- mercial development stimulates and thelr po- Ntical affinities facilitate shall improve as much as all those of your countrymen who ma‘ come to our teopiene “A hall, ag it is the earnest wish of Columbia to pt pate in the same feeling by hich you are animated; and you may assure them that there is, indeed, but one and the same affection and one and the same right for atl those who arrive in our country.

It was generally published several days ago that Many vessels of the navy were to be placed in com- mussion, and an intimation was given that they were specially designed for immediate and tmportant duty, but itis ascertained from an official source that the design of placing them in a serviceable con- dition was to prevent them from injury which would result from keeping them in ordinary, And, besides, it became necessary to reorganize the navy in the selection of the best vessels from the many which had accumulated during the late war. The fitting out of sailing vessels for cruising purposes is considered in the light of economy, the use of which effects a large saving in the article of coal, 1t will be remembered that Congress at its last session, largely reduced both the appropriations for the material and personnel of the navy.

The fall meeting of the Prospect Park Fatr Grqunda Association commences to-day, to be continued on Thursday and finished on Saturday next, To-day there will be two trots, the first by horses that nave never beaten three minutes im public races, the purse being $1,000—$750 to the first, $200 to the second and $1.0 to the third horse, The race will be mile heats, best three in five, im harneas, For this race there are eleven entries, and although none of the horses have beaten three minutes we would not be surprised to see time made well down in the thirties, The second trot will be for a purse of $2,000, for horses that have never beaten 2:25—$1,400 to the first, $400 to the second and $200 to the third horse—muile heats, best three in five, tn harness, American Boy (formerly Henry), W. B, White- man (formerly Billy Barr) and Gray Mack are the contestants. Gray Mack and Billy Barr can both trot tn ,) and it is sup. posed that American Boy can ‘do much better, at least he should, judging from his previous record and the price paid tor him. After his 2:26 tn @ third heat at Buffalo his present owner bought him for $20,000, and he must be much faster than either of the other two horses entered against him tn this race, or else he is ® very dear bargain. Howevel he will have @ chance to show his best gait to-a for Bose and Billy Barr wil keep him moving briskly. On the second day of the meeting, Thursday, there will be two purses trotted for of $1,500 each, the first by six good horses and the second by four splendid teams. The meeting will close on Sature next with a trot by horses that have never beaten 2:40, and a grand event bei ween Lady Thorn, George Palmer, Mountain Boy and Rhode Island. The latter trot 18 for $3,000, mile heats, best three in five, in harness, The trotting eacn day will com- mence at three o'clock P. Mand the heats in each race wili be alternately we suppose. In the entries in the above races we see that some of the horses are entered wituout names, or rather that they are entered under the cognomen of “no name,” In the present programme there are no less than five of (nis character. There seems to be no valid reason why the names of these horses should be withheld from tue pubilc, neitner do we see why associations should tolerate the practice of allowing them to enter, as they universally do, wito- out aname, To say the least of it, it iends to con- fusion, and may possivly lead to something worse. No record of the horse can be Kept unless his name be known, neither can fraud be guarded against, should such at any time be incended, As the entries for the Narraganset Park have not yet been fliled, we hope the directors of those grounds wili take this suoject into consideration, and not allow any horse to be entered for any of their purses whose name and previous performances are not fully known to the managers. Geutiemen who own fast trotung horses and demur to secing their names and the names of their horses in print had better decline the sport altogether, and ailow others less fastidious to take their places. At the trottin; meeting at Philadelphia last week @notorious individual from Watertown drove a horse in one of the races, in which he was the fa- vorite and packed heavily by the Pniiadeiphians. The hor.e was pulled in the race and did nut win, to the infinite disgust and pecuniary loss of those who laid their money on him. They vowed revenge on the fellow, but he escaped during the night, taking his horse witn him. Some of the losing party, how- ever, were not so indignant that tie horse should have been pulied, but that they were not apprised of the fact that he was to be pulled betore the race came off, so that instead of being losers they would have been participators in the spoils. They were particularly disgusted that when he knew he was oing to “chuck it’! he did not tell ‘‘Mullie” betore- and. Had the Point Breeze people acted as the Ni inset Park Association had done, aud ruled the rtown scamp off their track torever, “Mullie” and the boys would i saved their money.

The return game of the matcn between these clabs was played yesterday at Hoboken, and was won by the Eagles after a hard tussle. At the opening of the game the Eagica soared very high, but the Em- pires got a string on their talons and pulied them. selves up to where the mighty birds had flown, and actually crept above their wings, but they were shaken of and fell behind, just as the darkness set in and ended the sport. The inordinate length of the game may be attributed to the deiays occasioned by the ball being driven into the gardens at the left foul Meld, and aiso to the leniency of the umpire in keeping the pitchers down to their business. The Empires were shorthanded, as usual, as with them ball playing beg? secondary to business, the others wish to be on hand to-day to take care of tne Gothams. The game yesterday was conducted, as all games between these clubs have been, with the very best feeiing on both sides. The following score ‘will show by whom the work was done ear’ 0. RAR.T.
