The Great Celtic Demonstration for Fraace— Large “Turnoat” in Dublin—A Battle on « Small Scale. {Dubin (July 20) correspondence of London Times.) While the British government proctaims the neu- trality of England tu the Continental war, another “nationality”? within the empire declares {is sympa- thy with one of the belligerents. Happily for the peace of the kingdom, the power of the sympathi- zers 18 not equal to their will, and the equitibrum of Torces will not be seriously disturbed, even though Fentanism shoatd cast its whole welght into one of the scales, The of an European struggle, 10 Which Frauce is to play the most pr it part, keeus to have inspired Trish patriots of a certain class with new hopes, and revived the traditions of friendship between tile enemies of England at home and abroad, demonstration quite characteristic of the ‘Na- party was made last evening 10 front of the Livre, the French Consul, in Lower A tonal”? house of M. a Gardiner street, in this city. ‘There was no puplic notice of it; but tt was evidently organized upon ex! ve scale, And intended to be very imposing. Crowds of people of the lower ranks proceeded prop tangee orgie row ater ting aoe. am mi joy Hyuare, by bands such airs as ie pr ta mn ” “Partant pour la Syrie,” “Garryowen,” and “O'Donnell 7 while enthusiastic cheers and shouts of iod save ireland!” “Hurrah for France!’ “Vive la Querre!” and other hrases expressed the popular sentiments. ie bands which took part in the demonstration were the Skin- ners’, Stone-cutters’, Bakers’, Chimney-cleaners’, Harp of brin, Woite Orpheus, Kmmett, George Henry Moore, St. Patrick’s, St. James’, St. An- drew’s, St, Mary’s, St. Augustine’s, the Catholic Young Men’s, the O'Connell, Star of Brin, Brian Boroihme, Phibsborough, Drumcondra, Kingstown, Mouut Pleasant, Garden lane, Cuffe street, and anoth- er temperance band, Since the great amuesty meet- ing at ir there has not been so large @ muster of bands, and, il the Prussian ear be not proof against such music, there was power of brass instruments enough to drive tae Germans out of the fleld. in this Tespect they would be formidable allies, When they came opposite the residence of the Consnl, 37 Lower Gacdiner street, they unfurled, amid loud cheers, a Lew tri-cotor fag of orange, green and white, crossed with red, white and blue, emblematic of the Franco- Fenian amity. ‘fhe poke, having received intimation of the pro- ceedings, came upon the sympathizers, and at once commenced hostilitics.by Making a dash at the fag, which was quickly secured, but, afier a desperate struggle, recaptured in # torn state. Some or the bandsmen--fine, manly Spann fellows, a8 their friends usually say, and ing like reat officers in thelr handsome — untforins—made an impetuous charge to rescue their comrades, but they were routed with great slaughter of thelr drums. ‘The whole army ot sympathy was dispersed, but some hundreds of them rallied afterwards at Beresford piace, where Mr. P. J. Smythe addressed them in the following spirit-stirring terms:—- God save France and Ireland! We have met and fearlessly manifest the sympathy of Ireland tor France. We prove to that gallant nation that we are vot forgetful of the ties that bind together in indissoluble alliance France, the pro- tector of the oppressed, and Ireland, the Poland of the West.

Handbills were distributed among them, an- nouncing that next Sunday they would meet at Harold’s Cross-green to express sympathy with France. The notices concluded with the words, “God save Ireland! Vive la Franei” Some detached bands came into collision with the police, aud further encounters ensned, which ended, as _ before, the mif- ture of the French _ allies, A Marlboro. apt street the police interfered to stop the playing of a baud, but, encouraged by the large mob at their back, the performers refused. The constables then closed upon them and committed terrible havoc anol the drums, beating them vigorously with their feet and knocking all the music out of them ‘With their heavy boots, At half-past nine o’clock an engagement occurred near Carlisle bridge, which at first seemed likely to be serious, The chimney sweepers’ band were called upon by # constable to cease playing; but, ant- mated by the spirit of ‘no surrender,” they refused, and played with more formidable force. The police- man, not deeming it possible to take them all into custody, seut for remiorcements, aud about twenty other constables came to his assistance from College sweet station. The crowd resorted w stones—tue favorite weapou of mobs—and several polipenien were strack, One was Knocked down by a biow given from belind. The tight ended, however, like the resi, in the capture of fifers, drummers, horn- blowers and stoue thrower, and the streets resumed their wonted tranquillity. SCOTLAND.

Amajl telegram daied im Aberdeen, Scouland, on the 20th of July, reports as follows:— Prince Napoleon, who, with hie suite, left Peter head ten days ago on a scientific tour to Spitzbergen, arrived last night in his yacht off Aberdeen, having been recalled by telegram, which reached hiu at ‘Tromsoe, on the coast of Norway, on Monday morn- ing.

It appears the new American Minister to London has received the most positive instructions to press the coutroversy to a close. The British government nas changed its mind about withdrawing «ll the British troops from North America. It has uiformed the Doininion that a suf- fictent force will be retained to garrison Quebec ana Halifax. ‘The Louaon Neves contradicts a statement thatthe English government has in contemplation the de- apatch of 2 British force to Antwerp to preserve the neutrality of Belgian sotl.

The Irish Acade! of Music is to be closed tn conseqnence of the refasal of the government to rec- ognize its existence as @ national institution, A Cork journal of the 224 of July says:—‘“The sym- pathy of the masses of this country for France Is so great that we have been informed several young men from this neighborhood have left their homes with the object.of joiming the French army and taking part in the struggle.” On dit, that & gentenen well known in sporting circles in Cork, and who 1s said to have potted a heavy sum on the last Cork races, has staked £200 to £160 on the “first knock down’? in the present war, He has offered the odds that France wma the first battle, and his offer has, tt is sald, been taken by an oflicer of the garrison. ‘The day before yesterday an Austrian vessel fol into Cork harbor for orders, and then for the first time her crew learned that hostilities had broken out between France and Prussia, Eleven men—the Majority of the crew were French sailors—and im- mediately on learning the stirring news these gallant fellows, though their were five weeks’ wages com- ing to them, threw up there engagement and de- clared their intention to ieave immediately for France to fight for their native country. qr aceies endeavored to dissaade them, but they declared thempelves perfectly willing to pacrifice the arrears, “game, but was un!

The Mutuals yesterday made their first appearance after their ‘Western trip, on the Union groandes, at Brooklyn, to play agatnst tne old Ecktord Clap, of Williamsburg. ‘he game was by no meaus remar! ably brilliant on either side, although at the vegin- ning the “Mutes” fielded admirably, giving the “Chicago” q uité eaatly to the “vers.” Of the latter young Jawes) Suyder proved most efiictent, and Showed himself to be a first class general player in -the field, although somewhat unfortunate with the stick.

The Mutuals arrived bere from Cleveland at an early hour on Saturday morning, and kept themselves secluded during the morning at their hotel, the Gib son Hoose. The defeat of the “Reds,” receiv: the hands of the Athicttes two days betore, had made people rather nervons about the result of their game with the Mutuals, and a splendid audience, inciud- ing @ large number of ladies, was present on the grounds when the game began, anticipating a close and exciting contest. They were not disappointed, for Ue game that followed was marked by some of the finest catches and heaviest batting ever seen. . te MUTUAL. Players. OR. BT. Players 0. R. By TP. Goo.

The result was a splendid and sharply contested gaime, in which our club again proved they are not beaten until the last man Is put out, Thetr batting in the last inning has rarely, if ever, been equalied against such powerful antagonists, and rather astonished their opponents. llison played his position in tus old style, which 16 “excelsior,” white George Wright and Leonard also fielded spiendidly.

Gouid’s hit in the last inning virtually de- cided the gaine, It came m ar the critical moment When everybody wished yeu hardly dared hope for such an event, and drew Jorih the most enthusiastic plaudits from the crowd, McVey, Waterman and Leonard ulso patted with effect, Hatfeld for the first time since he has played against our nine played with confidence, vigor and skill, and showed thas he 1s still one of the finest bali tossera in the coun- try.

THE WKATHER. ‘The taorning Was warm, ‘Us true, bat # pleasant breeze swept across the country, delicionsty tem- pering the rays of the sun and preserviug the dewy freshness of the landscape until noon. At times a soft baze hung over land and water, like an azure vell, and hills anc meadows aud fields stretched out in a glorious panorama of ‘summer hues. AS on the first day of the meeting the residents prepared early for the races, and at eleven o'clock the road skirt- ing the notels and winding along the ocean at the Branch was jammed with gay carriages, and soon thereafter the cavalcade was whirling away out of the vulage for the ROADB AND RACES. Along any of the three routes to the course, the Deal road, Cedar avenue or the Beach road, there {3 @ happy mixture of land and water. The surround- ing country rejoices in im extreme ferdlity. Here live those imbued with the love of retirement, where pure air has its influence on their daily conduct. Much of these lands have been gccupted for upwards of acentary by the same families which continue seated at the same places now. ‘Those who whirled along the Beach route were re- freshed with the breezes of the ocean, giving life to their lungs and bloom to their checks, The su’ e of the immense waste was perfectly uurufMfiea. There was# warm sup and a firmament glowing \ sparkling blue. The heaving body of the wate) s set heavily, In @ manner to resemble the siecping respi- ration of some being of huge physical frame, The roar of the surf, which rolled up in long and white euris upon the sands, in its aadibie voice added a charm by the varieties of the sounds, Now and then, miles away were seen out on the sea ships in- ward and outward bound—the symmetry of their spars, the delicate twacery = of cordage and the heavy and grand movements of their hulls as they roiled on the siuggish billows of a calm ocean made a pleasing and imposing spectacle to the race- going multitude, Along Cedar avenue the drive was equally, exhilerating. Villas painted to the color of the driven snow and ornamented In a com- mendable taste with balconies, gables, weather cocks aud small chimneys were passed in great numbers. In front of these cottages were wide and exceedingly neat lawns encircled by shrubbery, while grand oid elms coeval with the distant mountains, grew near them in the rich soil of the county. ‘Thickly sprinkled orcbaras of apple trees laden with fruit, tlelds of waving corn. and patches o: blackberry bushes were. p. endless profusion, emitting a varicty of fragrance, while here and there in long by-paths, lazily grouped under the refr ig shade of trees, gently brow: many a cow, fat and sl occupants Villas were alive with excitement, and Lendered the ay occupants of the carriages genial welcomes, pike also had its share of drivers, and it is 0 say all were severally pleased with the many routes to the Park, THE AMERICUS CLUB.
