‘he Sheriff for the arrest of General Neill, whioh was duly executed. But before the @ooused could be brought into the august pre- sence of the irate Judge a counter legal document ‘was issued by Judge Blatchford, of the United States District Court, requiring the Sheriff to ppear before him and show cause why he held the person of the General in custody. ‘The Sheriff made due return and’ produced the ‘writ issued by Judge McCunn as his authority in the premises, Upon the fact set forth issue wags raised to determine the question of juris- iction, whether, in fact, Judge McCunn can interpose his authority to override the statutes of the United States, in military mat- ters, and, by his mere ipse digit, dis- charge enlisted soldiers from their sworn pledges of fealty and duty, or whether the government, acting in good faith and without constraint, shall compel the services of men voluntarily joining the land or naval forces of the United States. This judicial interference in matters purely military and national emanates only from one branch of the State courts; but the penchant for issuing writs of habeas corpus to enlisted soldiers there is quite enough to keep the military authorities of the district in het water. The case at present in contreversy will no doubt settle the question of this conflicting Jurisdiction forever, as Judge Blatchford is net the man to ‘“‘scotch” a case when he can give it a quietus that will set it at reat forever. But why not settle this question of minors as Judge Shipman did upon one occasion, when he held that all recruits claiming to be minors should be bound by their own oath at tho time of enlistment that they were of legal age? That would settle the question. The Tarf in America and Its Future. The popularity of legitimate racing in this country has reached a degree far above the ideas entertained by the most ardont turfmen when, only a few years ayo, they inaugurated the revival of the sport, which had sunk so low that scarcely any thoroughbred horses were owned in the Northern or Eastern States. To the Passaic County Agricultural Society, at Paterson, N. J., is due the credit of taking the lead in substantial efforts to place racing upon a footing to command the popular favor ; and the fact that that society has not been so successful as some other associations more favorably located should not cause the patrons of the turf to forget their obligations to the genuine turfmen and gentlemen who were the pioneers in the great movement which has now accomplished so much. After Paterson’s temporary success other localities were sought with a view to extend- ing the field of operations. Philadelphia was tried, in the spring of 1863, with indifferent suc- cess and abandoned. In August of the same year a meeting was given at the old course at Saratoga, and its success resulted in the erec- tion of the splendid new course at that place, one of the most popular racing establishments that ever existed in this country. The great success of Saratoga was the basis of the confi- dence which prompted the organization of the. American Jockey Club and the building of the magnificent Jerome Park establishment, at which the inauguration meeting was held in the fall of 1867, with grand success, and semi- annual meetings continue to be held there with the most positive evidence of popular favor. When it was announced that two meet- ings would be held at Saratoga in 1870 many feared that two summer meetings could not be supported; but the doubters were very soon after startled with the announcement that another course would be constructed at Long Branch, and a third summer meeting held there. All these summer meetings were suc- cessful. Baltimore in the meantime had established her Maryland Jockey Club, and @onstructed a handsome course, and upon it a most brilliant fall meeting was held, closing the year’s racing in-a manner most gratifying to all, For 1871 a still greater number of meetings will be held—two at Jerome Park, two at Saratoga, two at Long Branch and one or two at Baltimore—with every indication that we shall have a year’s sport unparalleled in this country. The war had, of course, destroyed racing {n the South and Southwest, where most of the blood horses of the country were owned in former times of peace, and the valuable stock of those sections would have been almost a total loss had not the great revival of racing in the North opened a market and presented inducements to owners to preserve their horses. The South, too, has gradually re- covered her ability to indulge in her favorite sport; and that her turfmen mean business is evidenced by the fact that the newly or- ganized Metairie Jockey Club at New Orleans will give $14,000 at a meeting to be held in April. Such is the field open to enterprising turf- men; and hence it is not surprising that many plucky gentlemen of means are seeking and possessing themselves of the best race horses to be obtained, including many from England. Only a few years ago thirty or forty horses at & race course were considered sufficient to in- sure a good meeting. Now they can be counted by hundreds at each of the popular gatherings. This year several new stables will be organized under the patronage of some of oar most wealthy and estimable citizens. In- deed, it is an undeniable fact that at this day ‘the amount of capital invested in race courses and race horses in the United States is at least treble the amount so invested at any wperiod before the revival referred to; and the fact that racing is now in the hands ef the noblest gentlemen of the land is the crowning vassurance of a brilliant future for the turf. Numerous sweepstake events are soon to lose—for Long Branch on the 1st of February, and for Jerome Park and Saratoga on the Ist of March. Many of the regular fixed events have long since closed with numerous eniries. For the latter quite a brisk business is already being done by the bookmakers, and after the 1st of March the competition between all the distinguished horses of the country which will be entered for the events tien to close will un- questionably beget a sporting excitement here- tefore unknowa in America.

Locations: of the German Batteries. Elsewhere we pubiish an illustrated map of Paris and the environs, showing the positions of the German batteries and the points within the city reached by the projectiles from their guns. The white, tines issuing from the guns and terminating in Paris or in the forts indicate the range and course of the shells. From the batteries at Sevres the range Is a little over four miles (7,200 metres). The guns here throw projectiles across the Bots de Boulogne, crossing the Champs Elyseés at the Arc de Triomphe, and pass- ing the Hotel des Invalides to the Place de la Con- corde. Shells from here fall into the avenue uf the King of Rome and the Avenue Imperatrice. At Meudon the German guns are mucn closer than at Sevres, the distance being less than four miles (6,000 metres). From there Forts Issy and Vanvres are swept by shot and shell, and Paris is bombarded in the vicinity of the Exposition Untverselle building, Hotel des Invalides and a large section of the city Magnificent Fete tn St. Louis—Banquet to the New Missouri Senator—Burial of Political Animositics—Speeches by Governor Brown aud Geveral Blair.

The banquet was marked by great enthusiasm, and was attended by men of all parties. Ail. politi- cal animosities were buried in honor of Senator Blair, The whole affair was @ grand success, a quarter distant (7,200 metres), but the guns mount- eq are of very heavy calibre, throwing projectiles weighing over two hundred pounds, From this point the greatest execution is done. Not only are the forts, Montrouge especially, flercely bombarded, but immense damage is done to that part of the city in which the Palace of Luxembourg, the Church of St, Suipice, the Val de Grace and Museum, Obser- vatory and Sarbonne, &c., are situated. From the guns at Clamart also have been thrown the shells which entered the Seine near the Pont St, Michel, in dangerous proximity to ‘the Cathearal of Notre Dame.

SCIENCE AND ART. “Wonders of Montana—The Boiling Wells of the Yellowstone”—Discourse by Mr. N. P. Langtord. The hall of the Cooper Union was filled last night by a large and atwentive audience, the occasion be- ing one of the usual Saturday night lectures, After the announcement of the two dlscourses next to follow Mr. N. P. Langford, Governor of Montana, came forward and said that since the year, 1862 he had resided in Montana, Being engaged in business pursuits he was obliged from time to time to travel through the country, and never previously in his life had it been his lot to witness anything he could compare to the scenery to be founid every-. where in Montana. It so impressed nim he resolved to form a party of gentlemen to penetrate the m- terior and if possible arrive at the headwaters of the Yellowstone. Alter giving & graphic description of their travels and their meeting with a party of I[pdiuns, who, from the appearance of their trail, they judgea were on the warpath, he described the scenes tarough which they were passing as rugged, graad und pic- turesque in turns; at times an awiul and fereboding gloom would hug the mountain tops, when suddenly the heavens would light up the scene with ail, the briiliancy of neonday. Among the Indians, he went on to say, & Successful horse thief is considered a great man, Some of the scenery to be met with in Montana bewtiders the beholder. by its vastness and beauty, and again you. found tas grotesque as 1b was grand aud beautiful.

THEIR SECOND DAY IN THE METROPOLIS Crowd of Callers—Much Friendship but Little Excitement—Card from General Tweed— No Reception Until the Other Exiles Arrive—Scenes at the Hotel. All day long yesterday Sweeny’s Hotel and the approaches to lt were the scene of the most lively excitement, caused by the congregation of number- less sympathizers with the Fenian prisoners. The green flag was dying from the highest fagstait on the roof of the hotel, and this very patriotic em- biem seemed to serve as a rallying point for all who desired to pay the Fentana a visit, O'Donovan Rossa, Charles Underwood O'Connell, Captain Mo- Clure, John Devoy and Henry Mullady were occu- pied during the day in receiving their friends in one of the parlors of the hotel, which had been re-- served for them. Crowds of visitors poured in and out during the day and shook hands with the exiles, who grasped their hands fervently and spoke to every one with the kindest’ of good feeling. During the afternoon a representative of Niblo's Garden's walted upon O'Donovan Rossa on behaif of Harry Palmer, when the following conversation took place:— HARRY PALMER'S FRIEND—Mr. Rossa, Mr. Pal- mor begged of me to state to you that he gives a cor- dial invitation to yourself and the other released prisoners to visit Niblo’s Garden, to witness the per- formance of the “Black Creok” at your earliest con- venience. O'DonovAN Rossa—We are much obliged to Mr. Palmer for his kindness and courtesy, but at present we cannot accept any offer tendered us to visit a place of amusement, as there are so many people calling upon us whom we certainly desiré to see. And besides, our brothers have not arrived, and we are determined to wait and consult with them be- fore We accept any oifers of the kind, OMARLES UNDERWOOD O'DONNELL—I would like to go myself to some place where I could hear good music if we had the opportunity; but I am willing to tet O'Donovan Rossa decide for me. Soon after this Colonel W. R. Roberts, Colonel John Whitehead Byron, John Burke, of the Knights of St. Patrick, Matthew Leavy, ?, O'Rourke, Colonel James E. Kerrigan, Stephen J, Meany, Michael Scanlan, General William M. Tweed, Jr., Patrick Cuf, Patrick Mechan, W. L. Cole and John Mitcheil made calls upon the prisoners at different times peng the afternoon, and were received in a cordial and straightiorward way by the exiles. Every per- son calling on the five Fenians ¢omes away im- eres with the most favorable ideas in regard to heir gentlemanly deportment and strong good sense which seems to rule all thefr ac- tions no matter what may be the temptation thrown in their way. Captain McClure’s sisters and brothers called upon him yesterday, and the scene was a very aifecting one. Mr. McClure, in speak- ing of the treatment received by them on board the Ouba, stated that Captain Moody and his officers were perfect gentlemen and nad treated them with the greatest Kindness and courtesy during the pas- sage from Liverpoot to New York, and that the Brl- tish government had paid their tare to this city on the steamer in the second cabin of the Cuba. O’Donovan Kosa informed the HexaLp reporter that the exiles would not accept of any public re- ception or procession until the exiles by the Batavia and Russia should arrive in the city, and also told the reporter that it was Impossible for them to answer all the communications which they were re- celving at present, but that chey would endeaver to «wnswer them all pac dl as soon as they could find an hour or two of spare Ume to do it in. Grand Marshal General Wiliam M. Tweed, Jr., has lasued the following order for the information of the public in regard to the proposed celebration: For the information of the various societies who desire Participating in the parade and reception tendered to the distinguished Insh patriots who arrived Jn our clty yester- day, 1am permitted to state that, at an Interview afd with Messrs. O'Donovan Rossa, O'Connell and McClure to-day, they atated that they could'not accept the reception or take any action in the matter until the arrival of thelr fellow prisoners, who are at the present time on their way to this city, The parade, therefore, cannot take place until the arrivalof the balance of the party, when on consultation the exiles will take such action as in’their judgment they may deom proper. Due notice will be given io the vartous socte- ties of the decision of the patriots. ‘M. M. TWEED, Jz., Grand’Marshal. General Tweed, on calling at Sweeny’s Hotel, in- terviewed the Fenian chiefs as to their ‘ntentions in regard to the parade. The men stated they were opposed to any demonstration taking place on Mon- day, as they preter to await the arrival ot their brother exiles, Who are expected here by Thursday or Friday next. General Tweed replied that of course if tt was the wish of the chiefs that no procession should take Place on Monday, but that they prefer waiting until the remainder arrive, he would postpone all the arrangements for Monday's display, at the same tame bata the gentlemen that the time thus af- forded would be used in perfecting all the arrange- monts for a magnificent and suitabie demonstration. Delegations from, different cities in the Uston called on the exiies, and were received py shem. The Washington delegation presented O'Donovan Rossa with the following address, which was read by Mr. P. H. Donegan:— Mx.
