Stupendous Land Jobs—Consolida- tion of Railroad Lobbyists. ‘WasBINGTON, June 2), 1870, General Butler’s Disability Bill. ‘The bill reported to-day by Representative Butler, Of Massachusetts, from the Committee on Recon- struction, provides for full and general grace, amnesty and oblivion of certain wrongful acts, doings or omissions of all persons engaged in the war of the late rebellion, perpetrated, incurred or forfeited, between the 11th of April, 1861, and 20th of August, 1866, with full restoration of all rights ana privileges lost or injured thereby and therein, The following classes of persons and the rights, titles ‘and causes of action are excepted from all the pro- visions of this act, and none other:— First—Whoever having been educated at the Military Academy ab West Point or at the Naval Academy at Annapolis, shall nave engaged in the rebellion or insurrection inst the United States, or given aid to the enemies thereof, Second—Whoever, having been a member ofjetther House of the Congress of the United States, shail have engaged in the rebellion against or given aid, comfort or countenance to the enemies thereof, and whoever was a member of the so-called.Confederate Congress. ird—Whoever shall have held the office of head Of one of the executive departments of the govern- ment of the United States, or miister_plenipoten- tiary or minister resident or judge of any court under the United States and shall have engaged in Tebellion or insurrection against the same, or given atd or comfort to the enemies thereof, and whoever shall have held either of the like offices in the Con- federate States.

The Case of Whittemore—The South Carolina Carpet-Bagger Not Admitted. , Thecase of Whittemore, the carpet-bagger from South Carolina, who was expelied fromthe House for selling cadetships and who wa3 re-elected again, ‘was settled in the House to-day. General Logan, who was instrumental in having Whittemore ex- pelled, took the initiative to-day in offering a resolu- tion to keep him from obtaining his seat. Whitte- More occupied a seat in the rear and took notes while Logan was speaking, as if he intended to reply to him, but he did not ask to make defence, Logan took the ground that Whittemore came under the designation of the statute which says “that per- Bons guilty of misdemeanors or of an infamous crime shall not be eligible as members of Congress.”’ Farnsworth, of Ilinois, made some remarks in pal- Nation of the case of Whittemore, but the House passed the resolution of General Logan by a vote of 124 to 29, and Whittemore picked up nis carpet-bag and marched out as fast as possible. It is said that he proposes to publish a defence, wherein he wiil show that he was advised by General Butler and oiher republicans to return and run for Congress after he was expelled for selling cadetships. He says it was upon such advice that be suffered his Dame to be used as a candidate. He proposes to be @ candidate for the Forty-second Congress. Condition of the Appropriation Bills—Differ- ence Between the Two Houses on the Indian Appropriation Bill. The interminable wind of the Senate seems to grow daily more an impediment to public business, Alter a whole week rehashing old assertions and repeating figures that have been dished up in every conceivable shape, that august body to-day came to @ conclusion on one theme for a great display of gab by defeating the proposition to abolish the franking privilege. This was a great relief to the earnest business men of the body—those like Cnand- Jer, Cameron, Wilson, Cole and others—who believe in action rather than words. Probably at no time in the history of the government have provisions to defray the expenses of running the necessary machinery been 0 entirely ignored. Nine days hence the fiscal year of 1869-'70 will Dave finished. For one month, at least, Mr. Mormil, of Maine, the chairman of the Senate Committee on Appropriations, has been ‘urging action upon the appropriations. He has kept the subject constantly before their attention, and, regardless of bis almost iimportunities, the useless discussions have been continued. The following is the precise condition of the Appropriation bills at this moment:—The Legislative, Executive and Judt- cial, the Pension and Indian Appropriation bills are am conference. On the Penston bill there has been one disagreement and a new conference ordered. ‘The Indian Appropriation bill has passed the Senate in one shape and the Rouse in another. The breach between the two bodics on this subject is extremely @erious, and it would be diMecult to say what will be the upshot of the discordance. The House declares all the so-called Indian treaties since 1867 as null and void, and in consequence makes a re- duced and aggregate appropriation. Mr. Morrill has prepared his version of the appropriation, under, as he states, the authority of a joint resolution of Congress. He provides for the amounts stipulated in ine treaties, recognizing them as obligations of the government, Whether these two radically op- posed views can be harmonized by the end of the fis- cal year remains to be seen. The Post Office bill, alter ® Week's delay over the frankling privilege, was finished’to-day, as was also the Oonsular and Diplo- matic bill, The Naval, Military, sundry Civil and River and Harbor bills are still unacted upon, that is, by «the Senate, The Naval bill, which came up this afternoon, promises another lively debate over the question of pay. The House, it appears, has put in a new pay roll for the navy in the report from the Senate committee, Mr, Morrill has dodged this issue by re- porting according to the old 1aw, with the exception of the West Point will, Therefore, not one of the remaining appropriations are completed, but are Gither outirely Unacted UNoD, or are in conference NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 22, 1870—TRIPLE SHEET, cadena nov rhc wn e | aR a a cts, [Ans Patrenacewgeent | THE QUARANTINE QUESTION. | TROTTING AT RARRACANSET PARE Akerman’s Name Not to be Withdraws. Although the Senate Committee on the Judiciary have determined to report favorably upon the nomi- nation of Mr. Akerman to be Attorney General, at ‘the request of the President no action will be taken ‘until the arrival of tne gentleman in this city. On Wednesday last the President telegraphed to Mr. Akerman to come to Washington, but it appeare the despatch failed to reach him, Yesterday he again telegraphed gna received a reply from Athens, Ga., from Mr, Akerman ,stating that he would leave for Washington at once. In regard to the various statements concerning the withdrawal of Mr. Aker- man’s namie from the Senate, I can state that the President has no such intention a$ present, In con- Versation le mentions bis readiness to give attenuon to the statements of Senators respecting any min- ister that he may appoint, and if satisNed with the force of the objections would withdraw the name; but in makiog am appointment to fill this or any other vacancy he would always act independently. The President has the highest opinion of Mr. Aker- man’s capabilities for the office, He is also anxious tohave the South represented in bis Cabinet. After Mr, Akerman arrives here he will have an opportunity to make apy explanations that may be necessary. Although there is some opposition to the confirma- tion of Mr. ‘Akerman, its extent 13 greatly ex- aggerated, and unless more serious objections are urged there is every prospect of success, According to the opinions*of leading Senators there is no foundation for most of the statements of opposi- tion, and I learn to-day that the sense of the South- ern Senators has been greatly missepresented. Huge Land Jobs to be Rushed Through Con- gress—Powerful Lobby Combination. A large number of railroad projects are still before Congress pressing for action. Among the largest and most valuable to their owners, should they pass, are the Kansas Pacific and the Atlantic and Pacific, These roads ask large land grants, which, if granted, will make a sweep of some eighty miles wide from the Missouri river to the Pacific Ocean. It is pro- posed to push these bills through in the last hours of the session, so that there will be no time for discus- sion. A large lobby. is now here at work for this purpose, and it is understood all the projects have made common cause, 20 that they will either stand or fall together. c The Dominican Treaty Investigation. The special comiittee of investigation in the Hatch cage will meet to-morrow and close up their report. The only point in the matter, it seems, was the allegation that Genera! Babcock interposed to extend the time of Hatch’s imprisonment, though insinuations of General Babcock’s complicity in Speculations were also made. This does not appear npon any other evidence than the statements of Perry, The charges of this gentleman, upon the authority of members of the committee, were en. urely unsupported and eontradictory, and it is un- derstood that General Babcock will be fully vind!- cated. It is proposed to put in the report as soon as Possible. An effort will be made to-morrow, If the committee get through with it in time. Foreign Telegraph Cabdles—The Conflict in Cuba. The Senate Committee on Foreign Relations to-day agreed to report the Belgian Cable bill, It reserves to the government the Tree use of the cable for thirty minutes in each day, This gives the government Gaily 150 words free, which, at the present cable rates of seventy-five cents a word, amounts to $112 50 per day, and for the year $41,000, in gold. The committee also ageed to report the New Jersey and Bahama Cable bill. The same committee wlll hold a special meeting on Thursday next for the sole purpose of consider- ing the House resolution with reference to affairs in Caba. It is proposed to enact some legislation empowering the Executive to put @ stop to the outrages practiced upon Ameri- can citizens and American property, and at the same time to invite the co-operation of other na- “tlons in seeing that the. prosecution of hostilities be according to the recognized laws of war. The committee will report at the earliest moment, and will press action at once, Reduction of Pousti Between the United States and the North German Union. An additional postal convention has been recently concluded between the United States and the North German Union, to take effect on the Ist of July proximo, which reduces the rate of international postage for prepaid letters, exchanged by closed mail via England, from fifteen to ten cents for each half ounce or under, and for prepaid letters, ex- changed by direct steamer to and from Bremen or Hamburg, from ten to seven cents per each half an ounce or under. * Unpaid letters are to be charged with double the prepaid rates, and the insufMicientiy paid letters with the postage for unpaid letters after deduction of the amount prepaid. The existing plan for levying and collecting fines on unpaid and insuMiciently paid letters is discontinued by this addi- tional convention. No change 1s made in the existing rates of postage on newspapers, book packets and samples of merchandise; but the full prepayment of the postage on all such correspondence is made obligatory. Ifnot fully prepaid such articles will not be forwarded in the mails to either country. The provisions of this additional convention are alike applicable to the correspondence for all parts of Germany, Austria and Luxemburg, which to- gether form the North German postal union. The Funding Bill Reported. The Funding bill was reported back from the Ways and Means Committee to-day without material amendment. General Schenck made an effort to have it fixed for consideration next Tuesday, but objection was made, and Schenck will ask for a sus- pension of the rules next Monday, so as to havea time set down for action on the bill. American Claims Against Mexico. In joint commission of the United States of Amer- on the republic of Mexico, Monday, June 20, 1. Ordered, That all claims presented to this com- mission be received and entered upon the docket tor preparation, investigation and decision as in other oa Ordered, That the time for filing claims before this commission be extendea from the 3ist day of March last to the 30th of June inst. and including the latter day, after which time no further claims will be received. ‘True copy from the minutes.

Senator Casserly, of California, has promised Hon. S. 8. Cox to deliver an oration before the Tammany Society, in New York, on the coming Fourth of July. The eloquent Senator being an old resident of New York city will doubtless prove very acceptable as the orator of the day. Reinforcement of the East India Squadron, Information has been received at the Navy De- partment that the United States steamer Palos sailed yesterday tor the East India squadron. She has been ordered to go by the way of the Suez Canal, It will be the first United States vessel to go through the canal. The Privateer Hornet. The Secretary of the Treasury has telegraphed to the Collector of Customs at Wilmington, giving per- mission to the Cuban privateer Hornet, which was captured ag that port, to proceed to New York. The Right of States to Tax Immigrants. Some time since a resolution was offered in the House of Representatives in regard to the right of the State of New York to tax immigrants to defray the expenses of the Board of Emigration. As no action has as yet been taken on this subject certain parties have arrived here to stir this matter up. It 1g understood that some action will be taken as soon as an opportunity offers in the House. Reports from New York National Banks. All the New York national banks, with one excep- tion, have reported in response to the recent circular of Comptroller Hubbard.

WasHIncTon, June 21, 1870, THE CURRENCY BILL, Mr. SHERMAN, (rep.) of Ohio, from the Finance Committee, reported that the committee unanimous- ly recommended non-concurrence in the amend- ments of the House to the Senate Currency bill, and the appointment of a committee on conference. INTERNATIONAL OCEAN CABLES. Mr. BAYARD, (dem.) of Del., presented & me- morial of Wiliam F. Smith, President of the Inter- national Ocean Telegraph Company, proposing for $500,000 a year, tobe paid by the United States for twenty years, to establish and maintain the interna- tional telegraph cables from San Francisco to Japan and China, and a third from the United States to Europe, conditional upon never consolidating with any existing transatiantic cable, and never charging more than five dollars in gold for each message of ten words, Referred, THE INTERNAL REVENTE ACTS. Mr. SHERMAN, from the Finance Committee, re- ported a joint resolution to determine the construction ofthe Internal Revenue act, so as to exempt undistri- butable sums added to the contingent funds of insu- rance companies. After an explanation by Mr. BucKINGHAM, (rep.) of Conn., that the bill was to remedy a construction of the law by which the Commissioner of Internal Re- venue jevied @ tax upon these sums as part of the surplus earnings, the bill was passed, THE POST OFFICE APPROPRIATION BILL. At iam. one the Senate took up the unfin- ished busfaess—the Post OMice Appropriation bill aud franking repeal amendments, Mr, TRUMBULL’S amendment limiting the frank- ing privilege hereafter to departments and allowing public documents to be franked ony from Washing- ton city was rejected ny a vote of 22 to 25. The question recurring on Mr. Ramsey's proposi- tion to repeal the franking privilege, a large number of amendments were proposed, only one of which was adopted, viz Prohibiting any allowance for stamps or increased pay to Senators or representatives in consequence of the repeal of the franking privilege.

At five o'clock the bill was laid aside and the Tax and Taruf bill taken up, when the Senate adjourned. The following was the ‘ameron, Casserw, HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, WASHINGTON, June 21, 1870, GENERAL AMNESTY. Mr. BUTLER, (rep.) of Mass., from the Reconstruc- tion Committee, reported a bill for a full and general grace, amnesty and oblivion of wrongful acts, doings and omissions of all persons engaged in the war of the late rebellion. Ordered to be printed and re- committed. THE FUNDING BILI. Mr. SCHENCK, (rep.) of Ohio, from the Committee on Ways and Means, reported back the Funding bill, with one slight verbal"amendment, and asked that it be made a special order in the House for Tuesday next. Mr. RANDALL, (dem.) of Pa., objected to its being maae a spectal order. Mr. SCHENCK withdrew the bill, saying he would take the chances of its being made a special order in bi House next Monday, under @ suspension of the rules. THE MORNING HOUR was occupied with reports from the Committee on Claims, and a large number of private bills were re- ported and passed. Among the 9 reported was one by Mr. ELa, rep.) of N. H., reciting that $678,362 was due by the United States to the State of Massachusetts for in- terest on expenditures during the war of 1812; that one-third of it had been assigned to Maine, and that the claim of both States had been assigned to the European and North American Rallroad Company, and directing certificates to be issued for the same to that company. The morning hour having expired the bill went over without action. THE CASE OF B. F, WHITTEMORE, of South Carolina, came up by special assignment. Mr. LoGaN, (rep.) of Ill., offered a resolution re- citing the action of the Committee on Military Affairs and the House in reporting a resolution de- claring Mr. Whittemore, by selling military and naval cadetships, unworthy of a seat in the House of Representatives, reciting his election and the pre- sentation of his-credentials, and resotving that the House of Representatives decline to allow the said B. F, Whittemore to be sworn in as a Representa- tive in the Forty-first Congress and direct that his credentials be returned to him. Mr. LOGAN proceeded to address the House in sup- port of the resolution, and quoted the statute which rendered Mr, Whittemore liable to be tried crimi- nally for the offence, and on conviction to be ren- dered infamous and incapable of holding any place of trust or protit under the government of the United States. He held that judicial action of the House in the matter disqualified nim the same as if he had been tried and convicted in @ court of justice. If the House had Sea to expel, then by a parity of reason it had the power to exclude; otherwise the power to expel did not amount to anything. This min’s constituents had been notified that the House had solemnly declared that he was unworthy to oc. cupy @ seat as a member, but they had thought Pires aa to insult the House, to re-elect him. he House had no right to say that men should be excluded on account of politics or faith, but 1% had the right to say that a man of infamous character should be excluded, Mr. ELDRIDGE, (dem.) of Wis., suggested the dan- ger of assuming such a right, which might be ex- tended to the exclusion of men on account of poli- tics or religion. Mr. Logan denied that the position which he took Was open to such criticism. He had directly dis- claimed the power of the House to exclude me: account of politics or religion, but only on a of what the law declared to be a crime. The case of Mr. Giddings, of Ohio, who was censured by tne House for introducing anti-slavery resolutions, who resigned and who was re-elected and admitted at the same Congress, was not a contrary precedent, because his offence was not Time. So, too, with Brooks and Keitt, of South Carolina. Their offences were not penitentiary crimes. ‘The case of Matte- son, of New York, was not a precedent either, be- cause, although censured by the Thirty-foarth Congress he was re-elected to the ‘Thirty-tith Con- gress, when the power aud jurisd of we Thirty- fourth Congress had expired. The or Wilkes, in the British House of Commons, wasaprecedent, not against, but in favor of lis position, because, although Wilkes, having been expelied four times by one Parliament, was admitted to his seat. by another Parliament, it was not before the record had been expunged and wiped out. Mr, FARNSWORTH, (rep.) of Ill, took offence at an aljusion made awaist bia bY Mr, Logan, as a friend fo teduage Inn h @ fing at his wo In such & at his expel no t gentleman's friend than his colleagu was, But he was in favor of deciding the case on a Hi Ae le was calm, lonate view of It, instend of deciding * ae aes LAN mate, ad captandum style, pe disclaimed any intention of offending ELDRIDGE suggested the case of a constitu- desiring to be represented by just such a man Whittemore, and participating in the benefits acts, and asked whether a refusal to admit reais not be trenching on the right of repre- . LOGAN denied that it would be, and supposed the mstance of the election of a colored Man before he declared entitled to citizenship, and who certainly not have been admitted, no matter bs often elected. The parallel in this case was di wi ESe hts constituents knew Mr. Whittemore to be ified, just as it was known that colored men Gisqualified. Mr. Whittemore bad committed mous crime, and Was therefore disqualined eyes of Congress and of the world, the only hing lacking being the Judgment of a court; but he t think that Congress was bound to appeal to a to judge for it as to who was iniamous, Cor should judge for itself. ‘LDRIDGE suggested that the principle of law was that every man was innocent until convicted by @ court of justice, He referred to the case of Mr. Busleg, of venhesssee, as one precisely similar to that of Mr. Whittemore, he having been unanimously cen- sured for the same offence, but not having resigned ‘Mr. LOGAN thought there was a distinction in the Ps! the House having refused to expel Mr. Mr, FARNSWORTH addressed the House in oppo- sition to the resolution, prefaciug his speech with the remark that he knew that such a position as he took Was uppopular and that the newspapers would criticise it and perhaps draw a contrast between himself and his colleague, He had voted for the censure of Mr. Whittemore and for the expuision of Mr. Butler, of Tennessee, and did not know but that he would vote for the exclusion of Mr, Whittemore; but hethought thatthe Mscussioy thus far would satisfy every member that the matter snould be in- vestigated by a committee. In the case of Wilkes the action In condemnation of him had not been ex- punged before his admission to Parliament. On the contrary, he had been allowed to make the motion himself and with his own hand to draw the black lines across the resolution of exclusion as being unfit to remain on t journal, being subversive of the sentiments of the whole body of electors of the kingdom. ir, POLAND, (rep.) of Vt., asked Mr. Farnsworth to let him offer & resolution to refer, the credentials of Mr. Whitteinore to the Judiciary Committee, with leave to report at any time the laws and the prece- dents Rep ieanle to the case and their judgments as to whether Mr. Whittemore should be admitted to a seat in the House, Mr. SCHENCK suggested to insert the words, ‘“‘refer- ring also all the proceedings heretofore had In the case. Mr. LOGAN said he had yielded to his colleague with the understanding that he would move the pre- vious question, and he objected to any amendments being offered to bis resolution. At ihe close of Mr, Farnsworth’s remarks Mr. Lo- gan moved tie previous question, and resisted ait the to him to withdraw it. 1 to the gentieman from r members might not have in ne object that he (Mr. Logan) had, but dif. ferent views as to the way of reaching it, and whether it was absolutely essential that they should continue to pursue the gentleman in his particular EB way. Me. LOGAN replied that it was no more necessary to follow him than tt was for the gentleman from Ohio Mr. Schenck) to exercise a perfect franny, over the louse for four weeks, If the gentleman did not like the resolution he might vote against it, but he (Mr. J ogan) would not accept diciauion from any member of the House. The previous question was seconded by 84 to 57, and then the resolution offered by Mr. Logan was adopted—yeas 131, nays 24, a8 follows:— Yeas—Messrs.

Mass.,-objectet, she SPEAKER decided that it was not a question of privilege, as the House had acted definitely on the subject. ‘ ‘The House then’went into Committee of the Whole, Mr. BUFFINTON in the chur, on THE SUNDRY CIVIL EXPENSES BILL. Mr. Dawes, Chairman of the Committee on Appro- riations, deemed this @ proper occasion, It being the jast general appropriation bill, wo review the work of the cominittee and of the House in regard to the public expenditures. He reminded the House of the remarks mace by himself in the early part of the ses- sion, comparing the estimates for the next year with the estimates of the last administration for the pres- ent year, and showing that the balance was alarm- ingly against the former. These remarks of his had been much commented on and no two gentlemen had since been able to agree upon the figures for either year. The Treasury Department had, now- ever, employed one of its Moxt skilful accountants to review the estimates of both years, and he now laid before the House, to be printed in the Globe, the result of that investigation. It showed the balance to be handsomely in favor of the estimates made by this administration. This summary showed the es- timates made for the next year to be $8,008,245 less than the estimates for the present year. That difference was found by the department correctin; its own mistakes in the estimates to the amount o} about $82,000,000, all made against itself, and cor- recting the estunates made by the last administra- tion for the present year to the amount of about $5,000,000, all made in its own favor. With these corrections made the difference in favor of the esti- mates of this administration wa3 $8,098,245, The Committee on Appropriations had addressed itself to the work of redeeming the pledge which it had made to cut down the appropriations not only below the estimates for next year, but also below the appropriations made for the present year. He took some pride in submitting the result to the House. ‘The estimates for the year ending June 30, 1871, ex- clusive of what were called permanent Soprope tions, were $155,096,727. The committee re. ted appropriations amounting to $141,753,502, Being, @ reduction of $13,345,225. The appropria- tions for the present year were $148,741,447, being $6,937,939 more than those for next year. These figures did not incinde the permanent appropria- tions, sucn as for the payment of the interest on the public debt, the collection of customs, &c. If these were added, in order to obtain the sum _ total, the re- sult would be as follows:—The estimates for the coming year would amount to $298,315,842 and the appropriations recommended by the committee to — $284,972,617, being a _ re. duction under the estimates of $13,342,225, ‘The appropriations for the present year, including the permanent appropriations, were $297,173,923, being $12,208,306 more than the appropriations recommended for the next fiscal year. He thought it worth while to be tedious over the figures in order that he might urge on the House to stand by the recommendations of the committee. He deemed it due to his associates on the committee, of all po- litical parties, to say to the House that in all his association with committees of the House he never found men that addressed themselves more faith- fully to the arduous duties imposed upon them. In conclusion, he appealed to the House to sustain the Committee on Appropriations in its efforts in econ- omy. The House then proceeded to consider the bill in detail. It appropriates $11,778,120, including the followin ‘or supervising inspectors of steam ves sels, $117,390;- for life-saving purposes, $23,809; for revenue cutter service, $1,431,400; for loans and Treasury nots, $200,000; for expenses of public lands, $32,500; for expenses ot collection of revenue from sales of public lands, $338,000; for the Metro- politan Police of the District of Columbia, $211,050; for Government Hospital for the Insane, $1 for the Deaf and Dumb Institution, $40,77 Columbia Hospital and Lying-in Asylum, $13,000; for the Soldiers’ and Sajlors’ Orphans’ Home, $27,000; for the Smithsonian Institution, $20,000; for the Bo- tanic Garden, $14,600; for the public butid- ings under the Treasury Department, $2,041,000 (this comprises $500,000 for the New York Vost Office, $250,000 for the Boston Post OMce and $500,000 for the San Francisco Mint); for light- honses, &c., $1,306,000; for armories and arsenals, $400,000; for the survev of the northern and north- western lakes, $100,000; for the survey of the west ern and northwestern rivers, $50,000; for continuing the construction of the Rock Island rid; 300,000; for the public works in and around Washington, $142,000; for the Washingtoa Aquedu ; for navy yards and naval stati 1003 { buildings jn Washington, $158,000; e jouse establishment, $1,431.000; for the coast survey, $643,000; for surveying the public lands, $402,000; ior miscellaneous , $278,000, and expenses of the United States courts, $1,200,000.

Without disposing of the question the committee rose and the Houge, at Ofieen minutes to five ’clock, adjourned, Moeting of the Commissioners—A Delegation of Merchants Appear and Recite Their Griev- ances—All to be Amicably Arranged Infoymation Forwarded to Dr. Cochran. ‘The stated meeting of the Quarantine Commis- stoners was convened yesterday afternoon at their Tooms in Exchange court, There were present Commissioners Schetl, Bell and Barton, Tne com- miasion from Governor Hoffman to Mr. Schell ap- Pointing him to the Board was presented, and he having been elected by his consréres, occupied the chair as president. A communication, without date, from the Health OMcer of Brooklyn was read and @ copy of the Quarantine laws transmitted to him for information. The minutes of the last meeting were read and adopted. A committee of merchants, conaisting of Messrs, William A. Kirkland, Soton Humphrey, Royal Phelps, William R. Garrison and Martin W. Brett, addressed the commissioners through their chairman, petitions ing that CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS appertaining to the removal of cargo at quarantine which are now imposed upon merchants should be removed, Mr. KIRKLAND, in behalf of the committee, stated that the prices charged for removing cargo from vessels detained in quarantine amounted to three Umes the sum for which the same services would be performed by lightermen of their own choosing, ‘The steamer Donati, a vessel leaving Rio Janeiro with a ctean bill of health, had been detained two days at Quarantine and her cargo of coffee removed at a cost of eighteen cents per sack, which was THREE TIMES THE PRICE Ughtermen would charge. A vessel at present de- tained in the lower bay had on board 15,500 sacks of coffee—the largest cargo ever conveyed to thls port. . ‘The law in relation to the transfer of cargo from vessels detained in quarantine was then read by Commissioner Gell, the pith of which was that appeals on this and Kindred subjects could be made to the full Board, and were not referrabie to the Mayor, as some had supposed. In return Mr. KIRKLAND stated that he did notfally understand the law, but supposed the above to be the case. The committee made their appearance to obtain information, as well as to pre+ sent their petition and recite their grievances. It was the first occasion he knew of a vessel en- gaged In the coffee trade being detained in quaran- une. Ships from Rito go to Hampton Roads for or- ders and have the privilege of being sent to Phila- delphia, Baltimore or New York. The detention to which they were here exposed was tending to drive the vessels away from this port and to others. He himself Knew of a ship recently ianding a cargo of a at New Haven, and his advices showed it to CY ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO CHARTER VESSELS to New York from Cuba at the present moment. If the restrictions were not removed 1t would injure commerce and drive ships away from this point. The Health Oiicer, Dr. Carnochan, had stated to him, in reply to objections made to the high prices charged for removing cargo, that these high prices were necessitated by the fact that those engaged m removing curgo were restricted to @ residence at Quarantine, and that men could not be brought for that purpose from the city, Mr. Kirk- land believed =he had evidence that the Vghters and stevedores employed were from New York, and could at present be found at her wharves and about the streets, He preferred that cargoes shouid be transferred when necessary by the warehousemen and stevedores of Brooklyn, who had Ceo experience in handling the delicate berry, and did not charge exorbitant prices. Commissioner SCHELL said that the committee, not understanding the law, had proceeded in au informal manner, They should present thetr STATEMENT OF GRIBVANCES in a written form, and the commissioners were dis- posed to act impartiaily in their consideration of them, Commissioner BsLL referred to the law which placed the removal of cargo at quarantine solely under the direction of the Health Omeer. However, action could be taken in the premises by the Board, and had already been contemplated, and @ consulta- tion with the Healti Officer suggested. Mr. KIRKLAND said, Substantially, time was when, by the payment of five hundred dollars, vessels could be passed through and arrangements satis- factory to the merchants made; but under the pre- sent Health Officer no bribes were accepted, and the fundamental principles of the. present sysiem must be re. to protect the commercial interest. ‘The pith of the argument by the merchants was then presented by Mr. BRET’, Who understeed that employes were liceused by the Health Officer, but that the rate of charges for removal of cargo stiould be fixed by the Board of Quarantine Commissioners, in conjunction with the Mayors of New York and Brookiyn, the Health OMcer and the President of the Board of Aldermen of the city of New York. What the merchants desired was that THE RATE SHOULD BE FIXED at as low a figure as possible. On motion of Commissioner BELL an execu- tive meeting of the commissioners, the Health Om- cer, the Mayors of New York and Brooklyn and the President of the Board of Aldermen (as per law of 1870) was called, to take place at twelve o'clock on Saturday next. Commissioner SCHELL wished itexpressly under- stood that the proceedings of this meeting were to be considered Informal. Commissioner BELL reported that the hulk of the steamer Faicon had been sold for $1,100, including chains and anchors. He also stated, as an item of interest to those readers of the HERALD who go down to the sea in ships, that vessels in distress could obtain ANCHORS AND CHAIN CABLES at Champagne Island free of charge by visiting or signalling the island. Commissioner SCHELL during this interview with the merchants’ committee deprecated the making of rash or hasty charges against the Health Onicer, and stated his belief that everything could be arranged satisfactorily at the executive session of Saturday next. The meeting then adjourned. NEW YORK HISTORICAL SOCIETY. General Gates in the Carolinas—Paper by Protessor Greene. Ataspecial meeting of the New York Historical Society, held last evening at thetr building, corner Second avenue and Eleventh street, Mr. Erastus C. Benedict was chosen to preside in the absence of the president, After reading a miscellaneous cor- respondence and an obituary notice, Professor Moore proceeed to read a paper on “General Gates in the Carolinas.” After describing the condition of the South at the breaking out of the Revolutionary struggle, and the want of general oficers, which that section was un- abie to furnish, the achievements of General Lincoin, of Massachusetts, were recited up to the surrender of Charleston that oMcer to the greatly superior force of Generals Arbuthnot and Clinton. Then the Operations of General Gates were described. Begin- ning the story of Gates’ disastrious campaign, with the presage of General Charlies Lee’s parting advice, “Do not leave Northern laurels for South- ern willows,” the paper passed by easy transitions over the ravages caused in the army by eating too reen corn, and the romantic career of General jarion, to the fatal effects in the sanitary condition of the troops caused by dealing out rations of mo- lasses instead of rum, which caused so great a relax- ation In the otherwise eternal vigilance of the sol- diery, and summed all up in the dual failure of Gatés in the South. Dr. Samuel Osgood next paid a graceful tribute to the memory of Charles Dickens, and the death of William Chauncy, ex-treasurer, Was announced, The members then adjourned to the picture gallery, whee & collection of cartoons, from the famous George Catlin’s Indtan portraits, were on exhibition. The collection, which 18 @ fine. one, embraces three hundred and seventy-seven full length portraits and about one hundred others, BROOKLYN POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE. Closing Exercises Last Evening.

L, June 21, 1870. ‘The attendance at the opening day of the June Meeting at Narraganset Park was not large, al though very respectable. The track was dull from the heavy rain of the previous night. There were two races on the programme—the first for a purse of $2,000, for horses that never trotted for money, divided into three parts—the first horse to receive $1,300, the second $500 and the third $200, There were five entries and three starters, These were Daniel Pfifer’s cheatnut stallion Honest Dutchman, M. Roden’s bay gelding Chariey Green, and P, Waters? bay gelding Dan Ford. Honest Dutchman was the favorite against the fleld at two to one previous tothe start, notwitstanding he appeared quite stuf when brought on the track; but the New York men would have him at any price, as they were tmpressed with the belief that he eould not lose in any way. They, however, paid dearly for their opinion, as Charley Green beat him very easily,in three straight heate, ‘The second race was for horses that had never beaten 2:24, for a purse of $3,000—$2,000 to the first horse, $700 to the second and $300 to the third. For this event there were six entries; but when the bell Tang for the horses to appear only three came on the ground. These were Budd Doble’s bay gelding Hot- spur, Mr. Blanchard’s chestnut gelding License and Mr. Poor's black stallion Draco Prince, Hot+ Spur was the favorite over the fleld before the start, After the first heat License and Hotspur’ Sold for like amounts, while Draco Prince, the win- ner of the heat, brought about $20 in $200, Hotspur winning the second heat so easily changed every- thing, and the betters were all abroad; but when Draco won the third heat they were still more at @ loss what to make of it. They, however, stuck to Hotspur, and he sold for as much as both the others, The following are the details of the races;— THE FIRST RACE. Furst Heat—Dan Ford won the pole, Charley Green the secona place, Dutchman outside. As soon as the word was given Dan Ford broke up, and be- fore the others got around the turn Dutchman also left his feet, giving Charley Green a commanding lead,‘which gave him six lengths the advantage of Dutchman tothe quarter pole, which was passed in thirty-seven seconds. Dan Ford was out of the race at this point. Going down the backstretch Charley Green opened the gap, and was ten lengths im front of Dutchman at the half-mile pole, Time, 1s Green was ail of this distance ahead at the three-quarter pole in 1:67, and came home a winner of the heat by fifty yards, in 2:33. Dan Ford dis- tanced, Second Heat.—Chariey Green was now the favorite at long odds, the backers of Dutchman endeavoring to hedge at any sacrifice. Dutchman was quite jame, and all hopes of his success seemed to be abandoned, Almost as soon as the word was given for the start Dutchman broke up, and fell away eight lengths, Charley Green going away from him at every stride. At the quarterpole Charley led ten, lengths in thirty-eight seconds, and was more than that at the half-mile pole in 1:173¢. From there to the end Green had tt his own wav, and won the heat by ten lengths, in 2:35. Dutchman broke on the homestretch and ran in, his driver being unable vo bring him to a trot. Third Heat.—One hundred dollars to ten dollars offered on Charley Green, without takers, Green took the lead at the start, went away rapidly from Dutchman, leading ten lengths to the quarter pole in thirty-eight and a half seconds, and to the half mile in 1:18, Dutchman broke on the backstretch and was nearly @ distance out before he recovered. Roden seut Green along at the top of his speed, in the endeavor to distance Dutchman, and thereby secure the whole of the money. He was not suc- ceasfnj, however, for Dutchman managed to get In- side the flag betore it fell. Time of the heat 2:32%4. The followgng 1s a SUMMARY.

They scored several times before the word was given, and when they left the stand they were all going at a high rate of speed. License soon broke up and fell benind, while Draco Prince went on with the lead, closely followed by Hotspur. At the quarter pole, which was passed in thirty-sit and @ half seconds, Draco Prince led two lengths, Hotspur second, eight lengths in advance of License. There was no change down tne backstretch, Draco Prince leading two len to the half-mile pole in 1:13, License ten lengths behind Hotspur, Going along the lower end of the back- stretch Hotspur closed on Draco Prince and was lapped on him as they swung into the homestretch. A Me Jp hteed struggle ensued, which lasted to the stand, Draco Prince winning the heat by @ short length, Hotspur second, half a dozen lengths ahead of License. The time of the heat was 2:27%. Second Heat.— License and Hotspur sold for even money, while Draco Prince, notwithstanding he had won a heat, had two to one against him. The horses came up al & pace too fast to last, and as 600n as the word was given Draco Prince and License both broke up, and Hotspur left them half a dozen lengths behind. He was eight lengths ahead of License. at the quarterpoie in thirty-seven seconds, the latter being a dozen lengths in front of Draco Prince, At the half-mile pole, which was passed in 1:14%, Hotspur led eight lengths, License still ten or twelve lengths ahead of Draco Prince. Hotspur maintained his advantage all the way around, and came in a winner by eighty yards, Draco Prince second, License having broken up badly on the homestretch. Tne time of the heat was 2:28}. Third Heat—Hotspur again resumed the piace he held in the betting before the race began—nearly 2 to lagainst the field. Draco had the best of the send off, License secoud, Hotspur third. Got around the turn Hotspur was put ina pocket an kept there until they reached the homestretch. At the quarter-pole, which was passed in thirty-six seconds, Draco Prince was leading two lengths, License second, half a length in front of Hot- spar, and the horses trotted in this wi down the _backsiretch, passing the hal mile pole in 1:12. There was no change of. places until they swung into the homestretch, when Hot- spur had to drop behind and go around the others. ‘This put him back so far that he could not overtake the others, who kept steadily at their work, Draco passing under the string half a length ahead of License, who was two lengths front of Hotspur, the latter having broken up iifty yaras from the stand. Time of heat 2:27 Fourth Heat—Hotspur was the favorite against the field. Draco Prince had the best of the send off, Hotspur second, License third. Going around the turn Draco Prince ied one iength, Hotspur second, two lengths in front of License.
