The presl- dent, Mr. Wheeler, occupied the chair. In with & communication from the Hudson county Board, relative to the establishment of a schoolship system ior the juve- nile deiinquents of Hudson, Union and Essex coun- ties, a committee was appointed to act with similar committees from the other counties. The moye- ment to purchase the old toll bridge owned by the Camden and Amboy monopoly, and make it free, was squelched through the members’ ignorance of the whole matter. The proceedings revealed that some $60,000 had been expended on the High Bridge, though it originally was expected to cost oniy $20.00. One committee tore down what the preceding committee had built up. It is manifestly a stupendous ‘job.’ Poor Rolla, the New Haven detective, who really captured Schwum, the murderer of Stoll, last winter, was refused his simple expenses, sixty-one dollars, ‘A resolution Was offered that the director be authorized to sign all necessary papers requisite to borrow money in the name of the county for the use of the Essex County Raliioad. After a short de- bate it was adopted. A resolution was adopted for the appointment of a committee to investigate the charges against a mem- ber of the committee that bulit the High bridge at Bloomfield, accusing him of having been guilty of collusiou with the contractors, and, if the charges are found to be correct, to have him indicted by the Grand Jory. BESTIALITY IN MASSACHUSETTS, A Series of Revolting Crimes in Saugus, Mass.—The Ladies of the Town Administer Justice in the Shape of a Public Cownidin, Boston, August 9, 1870. The town of Saugus, about eight miles from this city, has had a genuine but obnoxious sensation within the past few days. It seems that a man named Etheridge, who has lived long enough to know better, has been detected in the commission of a series of revoiting and unnatural crimes, in which several young boys were his victims, As soon as the story had been proved a fact some of the citi- zeng were about tnstituting legal proceedings against him; but, pending their movements, three or four strong-minded women and mothers got together and decided upon giving the wretch a public fogging, and in the course of a few hours carried their deter- mination into practice. They met him in the princi- pal sireet of the village, and went at him with an earnest will, At first he offered resistance, but the lashes were applied more vigorously, and finally the criminal Ged from the town and bas not been seen “since. WASHINGTON. Excitement in Diplomatic Circles—Re- ported Death of Napoleon—Proposed Revival of the Grade of Assistant Secretary of the Navy—Dam- > aging Record of a Pro- “=, milnent Radical, WASHINGTON, August 9, 1870, Great Commotion in the Capital—Diploma- tists Excited—Rumored Death of Napole A scene of unusual interest transpired in the Treasury to-day. Acting Secretary Richardson was sitting very comfortably in his ofice about noon, conversing pleasantly with Henry D. Cook, the banker, about finance, the Funding bill and the European war, when suddenly a messenger entered the room, perspiring and breathless. “What's the matter?’ said the good-humored Richardson, looking intently at the pale, perspiriog and breathless messenger. “Matter !’’ said the messenger; Matter |" “Yes, what's the matter? repeated Richardson and Cook, “Emperor Napoleon dead” exclaimed the pale, perspiriag and breathless messenger. “Dead! dead! Napoleon dead!’ said everybody pre+ sent; “Impossible! Can’t be! Where did you hear it? When did the news reach here? Who told your” The pale, persptring, no longer breathless, but deeply agitated messenger managed to explain that he had received the news under the most solemn injunction of secrecy from a telegraph ope- rator, Richardson did not turn pale at the an- nouncement, neither did Cook, nor Devereux, nor “any other man’’ present, but a profound impres- sion was made upon them all, and the tendency to prophecy seized possession of their minds. The affairs of Europe were settled in five minutes around the desk of Richardson. Eugenie was dis- posed of without mercy; likewise was little Louts, The Count de Paris was settled on the throne, with Prussia carrying off a big slice of French territory; Austria vassalized and Russia lording it over the sick mau of Turkey. It was perfectly wonderful to note how soon the whole European map was wans- mogrifled, and how certainly. No doubt would be listened to, The news rapidly spread outside the Treasury, and in half an hour was all over town, and for aught your correspondent knows penetrated to the utmost recesses of the republic. People ran from every part of the city to the telegraph offices and newspaper establishments to learn all about tt, and ascertain whether or not there was a republic already proclaimed in Paris. The Legation people got into a higher fever over the matter. s1nisters, chargés d'affaires and secretaries were seen rushing hither and thither in great agita- tion. ‘What's the news?’ was on everybody's lips. Just asthe excitement reached its helght an- other messenger, who haa been sent out to verify the story of the first messonger, reached the Trea- sury Department and reported to Judge Richardson, “There is no truth init, sir; it is alla hoax.” The map of Europe was instantly restored to its ante-mor- tem condition and the wise prophets consoled them- selves by the observation, “Well, if it haa been true, you know, so and so must have happened, and then our prophecies would nave been all right.” The correction of the bogus news did not spread outside the Treasury so rapidly, and, as a consequence, people were kept bobbing about ander the deiusion of Napoleon's death until the afternoon paper here appeared with the latest reliable despatches received at this point. Damaging “Matter, sir! Record of _ Radical. The charges against Mr. Clendenin, Secretary of the Republican Executive Congressional Committee, itis alleged, are well sustained. Among them are, dismissal from the army for cowardice, misappro- priation of funds and conduct unbecoming an officer anda gentleman, These charges have been ferreted out by the clerks of the different depart- ments who have been asscssed one per cent to de- fray political campaign expenses, Mr. Clendenin has made himsell very prominent in this matter, as- suming great authority and threatening se- vere punishment against all clerks who do not pay up promptly. If he wad re mained quietly in the background in all probability these charges would never have been un- earthed. To-day the Ohio State Republican Asso- clation of the district called again upon Mr. Clen- denin, and represented that they thought it unjust that clerks who went home to vote should also be subject to such heavy assessment. Mr. Clendenin told them that he believed clerks going home to vote should not be assessed also, but such as remained here ought not to refuse to contribute to the success of the party which gave them comfortable positions, Such as refused, he said, would be reported to the Congressmen from whose districts they hailed. The probability isnow that Clendenin himself will Le sent adrift before any one of the clerks, Cabinet Officers at Their Posts-A Sensa- f tion Rumor Spoiled. Messrs.

He says that there is no truth in the report that two iron-olads have been sold to New Yorkers recently, or that any negotiations looking thereto have been entertained. Our government, he says, could not consider any such proposals under existing circum- stances—first, because no vessels are for sale, aiid, secondly, because it is our pelicy to show to Europe a desire to preserve the very strictest neutrality.

Mr. Seward’s Contemplated Visit to China.

[From the Philadelphia Evening Telegraph, Aug. 2) The citizens of the southeastern portion of the city have been thrown tnto a state of great alarm by arumor that several deaths had occurred recently atthe Lazaretio from yellow fever. On inquiry it has been found that the rumor was true, but there 4s some consoijation in learning that the disease has abated, and that since day before yesterday uo deaibs have occurred. Those still suffering with the Malady are reported to the health authorities this morning as being in an improving condition. ‘The disease was brought here by the bark Home, from Black river, Kingston, Jamaica. She arrived off the Quarantine on the 29th of June last, with a cargo of logwood. It being reported to the oficers stationea at that post that her commander, Captata Piuliltps, had died of a mahgnant fever on the passage, the yessel was brought Lo and examined, She was found to be ina perfectly filthy condition, and in addition to this a lot of loathsome rags were jacked away in the hold, These were taken to the Quarantine whari, where the match was applied, and in ashort ume pita but cinders were left.

In your “summary” yousay:— —, Yesterday proved that the American is superior to the English model; thatin a race of forty miles (really over fifty when tacking), with a ten knot breeze, there are eight yachts in the New York waters which are faster than the famous Cambria. Itisnot my intention or desire to say anything controversially or which can in any degree detract from the great success of the Magic, Dauntless and other yachts; still I cannot admit that the New York Yacht Club course 18 one the best suited to test the capabilities of sea-going yachts, any more than I be- lieve @ race across the Atlantic will settle which is the fastest and most weatherly vessel.

LONG ISLAND NEWS. The Disturbance at the Grave of John Real— A Husband Attempts to Murder His Wite. ‘The man who jumped into Real’s grave, and who has given various names, was brought before Jus- tice McKenna yesterday morning and held to await the action of the Grand Jury. It seems that tie party who came over the ferry consisted of three men, including the prisoner, and two ladies—two men and the ladies riding in acarriage and the prisoner on horseback. The prisoner paid the fer- riage for the party. On his person when arrested was found 4 Derringer, a Colt’s revolver (iarge pocket) and a riding whip. The prisoner stated that his first name was James, but that he had forgotten his other name; said that he never had a father or mother, and talked in a very foolish manner. Friends of Smedickh say that he is not related to that man aud 1s not known by them. The pariy who came over with the prisoner returned on Monday to New York. The impression of those who saw ‘the man both on Sunday and at the trial yesterday is Unat he is insane and should be sent to an asylum. Yesterday morning a man named Henry bur- roughs, colored, who resides in Williamsburg, but Whose wife lives in Flushing, at the head of the Vieigh road, attempted to murder his wife. It seems that for some time a difficulty has existed between the husband and wife, and a9 often as the husband came up @ disturbance has been created. Yesterday morning Burroughs again attempted to persuade his wife to live with him, but she refused, which so exasperated the man that he seized an axe and struck the wife on the head, cutting a tearful wound of about four inches long, The wound was dressed by a surgeon. A warrant was issued immediately by Justice Hamilton, nut up to the present time Burrougiis has not been arrested. The tnjured wo- man, it is thought, will survive the injury, GREAT FIRE IN CANTON, ST. LAWRENCE COUNTY. {From the Ogdensburg Journal of August 5.)

Yours truly, JAMES ASHBURY, Annual Kegatta of the Bayonne Yacht b— The Mary Jane Tweed, the Bella and Perrin the Winners. The fourth--and second Union—regatta of the Bayoune Yacht Club came off yesterday and proved & most delightful success. The elements were favor- able in every respect. It will be remembered that the day set down for the event was Mouday, but, owing to the tnternational race for the Queen's Cup, it was postponed, and, all things considered, the adjournment was very judicious, and the result realized the most sanguine anticipations of the most enthusiastic members of the clu). The organ- igation has, of course, its regular cliarter from the New Jersey Legisiature, and since the tme the arrangements of the club were thor- oughly completed its progress has been very great. Indeed, so far as small, fast racing craft are concerned, the Bayonne Yacht Cin) enjoys an excel- lent reputation. The Union tegatta given under its auspices added another to the well known triumphs already achieved by the club. This was evident from the great interest manifested in the event, not only by the assembled crowd of spectators, but like- wise by Kindred yacht clubs, vehich, as will be seen from the entries, largely participated on the occa- sion. In fine, nothing was wanting to render the occasion pleasant, while every opportunity was afforded for the display of the qualiues of the con- testants. It was thought, indeed, that the wind was rather fresh for the handsome little crafts, but with commendable pluck they got tuto line. towards three o'clock, Boreas being set at complete defiance. A large concourse of visitors occupied seats in front of the neat little club honse, while the piers {n its vicinity were crowded by a very interested assemblage. From all appearances deep interest .vas manifested in the contest, and hours before the start the shore was lined by yacht- ing ladies and would-be “tars,” who, thinking that the wind was too strong for the contestants, chuckled at the prospect of a universal tumble. There was nothing of the kind, for the yachts behaved splen- didly, and, with the exceptiou of the Cregier, which went over Without serious accident to her crew, and the Moilie, wich split her gangplank, the race was marked by sterling pluck on the part of those who sailed the boats, The following were the entries:— FIRST CLASA, Name.

At the time of the elgnal gun the tide was almost flood and the wind due south, The competitors got off with astounding rapkiity, and in a moment after the signal all the competitors were in their element, Ten minutes after they quitted the stakeboat the yachts could not be distinguished, but It was well Known that very quick time was being made. At the start the Inquiries made at the oMce of Oelrichs & Co. and Kunhardt & Co., Broad and Beaver streets, showed that such astatement hac no foundation, There are no American steamers fast enough for the mails, and Belgium has none at all.
