A wioolor rosette, called “Marguerite nationale,” is me very newest article worn, It 1s a very pretty sud appropriate ornament, whether worn in the hair or half veiled in the snowy folds of afichu, It turks like the imperial violet of the firat empire, or stands out boldly like the white lly of the restora- Hon.

In this guise the aspect of a civilian is that of a Spanish guerilla chief softened down by free marksmanghip. Or, again, there is the suit adopted by Vespetro, now among the mobiles at the camp de St. Maur—a coat, trousers and képi of biue cloth, brightened by bite of scariet piping and band, The same difficulties men are exposed to in the matter of beard, whisker and attire, are to be met in vhe intact preservation of one’s own lodgings.

POINT BREEZE PARK. ‘The Unfinished 2:40 Raco of Friday—The Judges Decide the Fifth and Sixth Heats “No Heats”—The Chestnut Mare New Berlin Girl the Winner. The 2:40 race of yesterday, which caused so much excitement among many of the thousands at Point Breeze Park because of its being continued ‘until darkness and then not finished, was post- poned until this morning, when it was decided in favor of the chestnut mare New Berlin Girl, It will be remembered that five heats were trotted on Friday, the Girl taking the first and second, the brown mare Jennie the third and fourth, and the gray mare Fannie Lambert and Jennie making a dead heat of the fifth. After the race last night the judges met in consul- tation, and, upon reviewing the race so far as gone, came to the conclusion that the fifth heat should be declared “no heat,’’ so far as record was concerned, deeming that course the better one, as they had put Jenme back because of ber running, which decision ‘Was oMcially announced this morning. There were not many present to witness the con- clusion of the race last night, trains haviag taken the balk of the strangers away; but the few who had Pools upon the result were on hand, and ma meas- ure were just as excited as when they left the grounds last night. The sixth heat was trotted in due time and taken by the gray mare Snow Flake. As she did considerable running im various parts of the mile the Judges, after deliberation, decided that the heat would be viewed by them as was the fifth heat of last Dight—that it should be “no neat” so far as the record of time was conterned. The horses were then called for the seventh heat, which was won by the mare New Berlin Girl, giving her the race. This announcement was halled with enthusiastic cheers by those who Had their money wagered on the victor. Sek iene es ‘Se following gives the details of the race subse- quent to the fifth beat: Sixth Heat.—New Berlin Girl was the favorite at two to one over the field. New Berlin Giri had the lead, Snow Flake second, Jennie third, Fanny Lambert fourth. Going around the turn Snow Flake went to the fiont, New Berlin Girl second, Jennio d, Feony Lambert fourth. At the quarter pole Snow Flake led one length, New Berlin Girl second, one. length ahead of Jennie, who was one length in ad- vance of Fanny Lambert. The time to the quarter pee ‘was forty seconds, Going down the backstretch ew Berlin Girl and Jennie ‘broke up, and Fanny Lambert took second place. Snow Flake broke up several tines, and gained considerabi: by the running. . Fannie Lambert stuck to her work q closely all the Way around the lower turn and up the homestretch, und was only beaten by snow Flake by three-quarters oi @ length, the latter going over the score onaran, The Judges gave tiie heat to Fannie Lambert, but did not annouace the time, as they considered that a record of time should not be siven, seats Fannie Lambert. ‘The latter was two lengths jn front oi New Berlin Girl, who was three lei in advance of Jennie. ‘the time of the half-mile was 1:16 and the heat 2:3434, Seventh Heat.—New Berlin Girl Was still the favor- ite over the field at odds. She was first away, Jen- nie second and Fannie turd, Snow Flake having beep withdrawn. Going around the upper turn New Berlin Giri led two lengths, Jennie second, four lengths in advance of Fannie. The quarter pole was passed in thirty-eight seconds by New Berun Girl, who stiil led two lengths, the others as before, Going down the backstretch Jennie closed up the daylight, and Fanuie Lambert aiso moved up closer, and at the balf-mile poie they were nose and wheels, Time, 1:17, On the lower turn New Berlin Girl drew Way again, and ven the result sepmed no longer in doubt, as Jennie began to “tangle” and quit, Fannie Larabert lay behind, not wishing to interfere with the chances of New Berlin Girl, agit was evident tat Faume would not go the front as long as New Keriin Girl could stay there, Du- grey aud Koden had previously arranged that part of the programme and they were successful in carrying itout. Their game, however, would have been blockea had not a postponement taken place the day before, aa New Berlin Girl was beaten two heats before darkness intervened to save her. New Berlin Girl came home a winner by two lengths, Jennie second, Fannie Lambert third, and the prizes’ were awarded to them in the order in which they crossed the score, ‘fume of the heat, 2:34%.

To Tax Epiror or rue HeraLp:— In a recent number of the Heratp there is a letter in which Dr. McCosh places before the American public one side of the question in refer- ence to the postponement of the Conference of the Evangelical Alliance. Will you be so good asto permit me to state tho other side of the case? Iam one of a considerable number of clergy- men and laymen who on their arrival in New York from the United Kingdom were informed that at the instance of continental divines and some men in England, in consequence of the war be- tween Germany and France, the Conference was postponed. I for one object to this, on the follow- ing grounds :—First—It makes the movements of Christ’s kingdom wait on the movements of the kingdoms of this world. Second—It lets the opportunity, which never can return, of dealing piel with Roman Catholic peoples, &., when their minds were heated by the Roman Council, ass away. Third—If it plensen a few German octors and English officials it will displease hun- dreds of the friends of the Alliance. Fourth—On the invitation of the American committee a con- siderable number of gentlemen have reached these shor and if the loss of a couple of hun- dred pounds and three months of precious time and two Mo si across the Atlantic are small matters to Dr. McCosh and his friends, they are not so to me. Fifth—If it should tura out that German doctors had a large number of papers to read, so that the Conference could not be he held without them, it may be found on inquiry that whole churches in the United Kingdom whose ministers are quite as competent to discuss public questions have been assed over. Sixth—I have ween nothing of and eard nothing from the American committee in explanation of these matters: it may be said that I ought to have called‘on them, gay no. did not come here to “ interview” any man, but to see American Christianity, in its bloom and fruit and to attend the Conference. © Dr. McCosh writes from his lavender throne of farplagescy: I, on the other hand, live in the cold shadow of disappointment. Seventh—The war was declared two weeks before we left Europe. I received no notice of the ‘eee or of negotiations in Progress on the subject. I want no favor in the way of money or hospi- tality from the American Christians. But I ven- ture to think that in no city of the United King- dom would a number of American gentlemen who had come to their shores on the invitation of Brit- ish Christians for an important object be allowed to come and go without recognition, or even the formality of a public meeting for explanation and | welcome. I stood by the Alliance at its cradle. I have had an interest in it ever since. I must meet the laugh of my constituents on the wild goose chase I have oome on as best I may, and submit to the Christian public at home the facts of the case for | discussion and judgment.

To Tue Epiror ov THE HsraLp:— Churchgoing is associated with my earliest recol- lection. But now, being in my sixty-ninth year, and not being able to hear very distinctly, I am glad of an opportunity to read a report of the taark sermons delivered in New York city, pub- ed in the New York Hupap, that I may still be able to watch the movements of old ship Zion, although those reverend divines very forcibly remind me of a company of foxes runningin a new fallen snow, crossing their track in every direction and then dodging back into their holes again, secming instinctively to think themselves safe because no one willever be able to track them. But mind is unfolding, and by the light of ! metaphysical science—this science is an ex- ceedingly high mountain, where the devil isnow taking us—we can gee all the kingdoms of the world ina moment of time by this light; we can see them every time they cross their track, or, in | other words, set down a wrong figure.

To rng Eprror or THE HERALD:— After watching closely the discussion between Orson Pratt and Dr. Newman on the question “Does the Bible Sanction Polygamy, or, more properly Polygeny?”’ we do not hesitate to declare the whole proceeding a failure for both sides, for the distinguished orators were nnable to produce passages strictly prohibiting or allowing polygamy. Mr. Newman tried to induce his adversary to argue on the question from a social standing point, but in vain, as the Mormon elder knew very well there was no chance left for him on that battle field. Nature, justice, morality and history condemo this institution with equal severity. God, in eating the same num- ber in both sexes, meant, evidently, that one man ‘was made for one woman. If we sanction poly- gamy wo have no cause not to admit polyandry, or, in other words, sanction the social ovil as a legal institution. Polygamy destroys beneficial effects of family life, the main foundation of our Christian civilization, Political Nh ie & natural consequence of domestic lespo established by the plurality of wives. History shows, too to contest that native decadency has always been the destiny of polygamio nations. cess in sexual pleasure Produces deoline in Rb al ap well as intellectual power.

This was the very field to combat on against the ‘‘second'relio of barbarism.” But we hear the de: d gentlo- men cite the same verses of the Bible as proves, pro and contra, the institution according to their opposed interpretations; we hear translations from the Hebrew in a conuary sense, accordin, to their own judgment. Their interesting waste o! eloquence seems only to prove the impossibility of regulating our social institutions through the Bible. MAX KI . AMERICAN RELIGIOUS PRESS ON THE WAR.

Moses cannot have cared about the reporis wich these spies woald bring him, as his trust In God must have rendered then: a matter of indifference to him. The aim and object of Joshua in sending out the two spfes to Jericio was equally to reauimate and encourage the dismayed hearts of Israel by favor- able intelligence (thus we understand the comment of Kime). Also the mission of the messengers to Al (Joshua 7) was only for the purpose of tranquil. izimg the people about the selection of no more than three thousand warriors for the expedition against that city. That tits expedition miscarried proves that it was not the intention of Joshua to gather such information as could be favorable to him. The two messengers whom David sent out to seek Saul (I+ Samuel xxvi., 5), were no spies of whom David availed himseif in order to do any harm to to King sau. In like manner the Meraglim of Absaion (II Samuel, xv, 10)., were nothing but messengers to the different tribes. Evenithe messen- gers of the tripe of Dan to the house of Micah were Not sent out as spies, A PLEA FOR PZACE. Address‘from the Committees ot the London and American Peace Societies to the Friends of Pence. DEAR FRIENDS—That which we have long feared has come upon the nations. The system of armed peace which the governments of Hurope have in- sisted on maintaining has issued, as suca a system could uot fall, seoner or later, to do, in open war between the two Powers which had most distinguished themsclyes by the excess ol their warlike preparations. The con- flict which has now commenced wiil, veyond doubt, prove to be one of the most awful in the history of the world. It will involve an incaiculable destruc- tion of human life and property, wili fil myriads of: hitherto happy homes with horror and aj ish, Will derange those beneflcent ties of commerc® by which mankind are bouad to each other, will arrest the progress of liberty and civilization, will envenom inen’s spirits by cvil passions, and will make the very name of Christianity—the religion of mercy an pronieny: love—for the time a mockery in the earth. But while overwhelmed with eorrow at this terri- ble event we at least can look upon It with a con- science free from remorse. For many years we have not ceased, to the extent of our abilities and oppor- tunities, in our endeavors to impress upon govern- ments and peoples the duty of using the jucid inter- vals of peace in adopting means wiilch would give some guarantee to the nations against so dire a ca- Jamity as Wat which has now overtaken them. Far from having proclaimed, a8 we are sometimes mis- takenlyjaccused of doihg,an approaching millennium of universal ce, our voice, on the con ‘y, has been one of constant deprecation and warning, on the ground that there was uo security for peace whule Europe was incessantly preparing for war, and while the nations were content to leave the continvance of peice at the mercy of th excited passions and hiuzardous accidents of the moment. Therefore {tis that we have been strenu- ously contending, first, for @ mutual and simul- taneous reduction of those enormous armaments, which, kept up professedly in the interests of peace, are the most dangcrous incentives to w: and, secondly, for the estahlishment of a court of arbitra: tlon, or some form of international jurisdiction, by which the differences of nations could be referred to the decision of reason and justice instead of prejue dice and passion. If there ba any who doubt the eMecacy Of these means willthey suggest some means more efticacious, or are we to abandon man- kind In despair to the eternal rule of barbarism and brute force? What now, dear friends, remains for ns to do? Unhappily, in tuose countries which are the actual Seat Of War the voice Ol Justice, reason and religion is stifled, for that is the only condition on which war can be prosecuied, Our excellent feliow laborers in the cause of peace on the Coatinent have not been wanting to their principles aud convictions in this awiul crisis, Consistenuy and courageously, even on the very arena of warlike agitation, have they, in every Way Uiat was open to them, uttered bold and eloquent protests against the war. But while it may be dyncult for them to persevere tn that course—for War is tie most oppressive of tyrants— We must continue to denounce this great crime against bumanity, and, undazzled by the glare of victory Which may attend one side or the other, turn upon it steadtly the light of sober reason and Christian morality. We must guard ours¢ives, and use whatever tniuence We possess in guarding oihers, against the conta- gion of the war spiril, which ts ap! to spread even vo those who are only rpectaiors of the conflict. We Must do all that lies in our power to prevent the area of war being enlarged, and especially we must strenuously resist uli aliempts to involve our own country in this dreadful tmbrogilo, We iaust watch every Opening for the restoration of peace, go a8 to encourage our Own and oticr neutral governmenta to offer their mediation atthe earliest possible op- portunity with a vrew to bring the war to an end, And, above all, we must stand prepared, whenever ‘this deplorable conflict is cl |, to Invoke the pub- lic opinion of all Christendom in favor of such measures being taken as will for the iuture piace the peace of the world beyond the reach of the personal ambition of individuals or the capricious impulses of popular 100.

Buffum the Murderer Removed to Goshen Jall—He Still Threatens to Commit Suicide— He Feigns a Fit—Diverse Opinions Relative to His Insanity, On Friday evening Bobert Buffam, the murderer of John L. Seaverns, was removed from the Orange county jail at Newburg to that at Goshen (Newburg and Goshem being the half-shire towns of Orange, and Goshen being the “better half’ in respect] to Jail accommodations), where he will be kept until the fsession of the County Court, which commences on the 26th inst. His case will then be brought be- fore tho Grand Jury, and a bill of indict ment for murder be found against him. Buifum seems possessed with a feeling of melan- choly, and declares, that he will watch his chance and make another attempt to commit suicide. Dep- uty Sheriff Tuthill, who has charge of the Newburg Jail, is yet unconvinced of Buffum’s Insanity, avers, ring that he has seen nothing in Butfum’s conduct or talk which shows derangcient of mind, Accord- ing to the Sherif way of thinking there ts agreat deal of method in Butfum's madness—too much method, in fact, for the thing to be genuine. ‘To ive an tilustration or two:-"Bome days after Bul- ‘um’s recent attempt at suicide by divin: head first agamst the floor of cell using & chair for a. “jumping-off place," it was noticed that his ‘¢luows wero badiy bruised. The explanation at once suggested itseif that Buffum’s elbows had prevented aserious injury to Buifum’s head, It was thought incredible that ‘he man could have come down with such force on ‘hi3 cocoanut and yet escape a fatal fracture of that important part of his mortal frame, or at least | breaking his neck; but on the elbow theory the thing was seen to be quite possitie. Another, Ono eve. last week Buifum seemed to be ina fit, After struggling convuisively for @ time his muscles relaxed, he became quiet, his eyes siowly closed upon all sublunary inne, his breath. ing siackened its headlong pace and his attendants tou, Pie nearly over with Buifum in this world, e Sheruf was notified, and he at once sent @ messenger for Dr. EB. E. Lee, who has had charge of the murderer's case since the attempt at suicide. The doctor hurried from nis residence over to the jail, and was at once admitted to the cell of she sup posed dying man. Feeling of his pulse the doctor Was surprised to find it full and strong. Seeing that Butfun’s eyes werg closed he drew up the lid, wien SulTum made an effort to draw it down again. In the language of the immortal Prof, Loomis, of n meteor fame, the “jig was now up.” Quoth the doc- tor to the murderer, “Butfam, that won't do; sit up here.” Butfum, ‘coming ‘out of his ’ dying fit without any apparent effort, on his cot and nonchalantly said, evening, doctor,” and thus ended — this sham dying. it is thought by many at Newburg that Buifum’s insanity—if he’ ever was really in- sane—was more rum-craziness than anything else, and this opinion would seem to find support from the letter of Dr. Bemis, Superintendent of the Insane Asylum, which was recently published in the HERALD. , On the other hand, there is a widespread opinjon that Buffum’s sufferings and privations tn Southern prisons during the war unsettled his mind London Peace Society, American Peace Society. and gave him a “murder mantis.” THE PARK. Decline of Summer Glory und Advent of Sober Fail. The vernal bloom of our tpautiful Park 1s gradu- ally yielding to the more sober tints of autumn. Green and gold andrusset make the colors of the landscape, and by the avenues and walks the great army of dead and dying leaves begin to muster to tell of the departing glories of the summer time, Yesterday the lovers of the Park were out in strong force, The Ramble, the Mall, the borders of the quict Lake were thronged, and in everyfface the deep, glad fecling which natural scenery, trained 1m the mghest order. of art, awakens in the appreciative mind, was visible and = striking. Added to the genial heaith inspiring breezes, to tie sights which mtoxicate sense and soul alike, was the ravishlag music of the baud. The throng was great in the vicinity of where Harvey Dodsworth wielded his magic baton. Here wherd whispertog lovers most do congregate, the scene was extremely animated. The dresses of the lad singularly picturesque, as viewed in the out moved group after group in quiet, eg saunter, now promenading straight up the b avenue of tie Mail and again lost in devious rami amid the countless winding waiks® that lead Where and everywhere through the rural labyri As for the carriages they were in sevinin countless numbers, and alt so gay and fresh fand sparkling, looked as if ' every vehicle just had been purchased for the occasion, and was taking its first atring iu public. The ladles, the aristocratic choice ones of New York's favored society, made more tian an imposing dis- piay. The snajoricy were simply bewltching, and for those Who reclined in their carriages moving up the easy incline to the Casino earth seemed to have line more to offer or lo enjoy. Equestrians were not so Bumerous as on other days, and those who put In an appearance were but sorry specimens of horsemen, More is the pity, for a confident and gallant horse- man mouated on @ prancing well groomed steed 1s @ 8 ghi for the gods themselves, Of the chiiden a word should be said. They were Mumberless as the sands on the shore and more Joyful and exuberant in spirits than the langhing waves that dance npon a summer sea. The won- derful variety in the dresse3 of the little ones, so tasteful, bright aud tidy, too, made a charming fea- ture of the day, aud few left the Park without feel- Ing that it was good to be there, even for one brief half hour.
