SEWARD ANONG THE BYCULLAS. ] 222 Whe Angle-Indian Aristocraey Making the Most of the Great American Traveller. Loaded with Honors by the Governor General. FEASTING, TOASTING AND SPEECHIFYING. A Torrent of. Compliments Show- ered Upon the Ex-Seeretary, The Inevitable “Iwo Branches of the Anglo- Saxon Race” Copiously Drunk to. Seward’s Eulogy on India, the Hindoos and on Everything Else. Bompay, April 29, 1871. The ever young and irrepressible Seward arrived hhere by railway on Sunday, the 9th inst., accompa- nied by Miss Seward and Miss Risley, nts daughter and niece. He was met at the station by several dwstinguisned people of this city, among others by Mr. B. F. Farnshaw, who extended to him an invita- won to be his guest, which proposal Mr. Seward at once accepted. He appeared to be in excellent health, his long railway journey having evidently not exhausted him in the least. The whole party Grove to Mr. Farnshaw’s bungalow (residence) at Parell, where Mr. Seward received hosts of caliers, Europeans as well as Parsees and natives. On Mon- day night, April 10, Mr. Seward and party dined with his Excellency the Governor of Bombay. Afterwards there was a succession of dinner parties. But the great event was a grand dinner given to ‘Mr. Seward by the members of the Bycuila Ciub on ‘the following Thursday, Over a hundred gentle- men were at the table. The Governor of Kombay, ‘Who nad returned from a shooting expedition only that afternoon, wae unable to attend. Sir M. R. Westropp, Chief Justice, presidea, and eontributed greatly to the jollity of the occasion. In proposing the health of Mr. Seward he satd:— ‘There was an illustrious diplomatist on his right, but that it was not in the feild of diplomacy tiat he proposed to speak of their guest; and ne then re- ferred to Mr. Seward’s distinction as an advocate and asa statesman. In the latter capacity he bad served with honor to nimself and advantage to his country. His energy was suficienily wstified by his presence there—a septuagenarian making a vour Of Asia Was a rare phenomenon. (Appiause.) He was chiefly distinguished as an advocate of hberty for all classes and colers im the United States. If there had been an aposile of freedom In America it was Mr. Seward. (Applause.) He had nearly lost his life in consequence of the vigor with which he advocated the ciaims of the blick popula- tion of the States. He had been the consistent steady advocate of thelr claims jor many years; he had been the Wilberforce of the West, and he had seen what Wilberforce did not see—he had seen ihe success of his efforts, the final success of them, lor he had estaplishea freedom forever. (Applause.) He had been on the brink of being elected President, and when not victorious the great man was seen, for instead of there being any jealousy on his part he had been his rival’s right hand througnoat the whole of his adminisirauion. (Appiause.) In alluding to Mr. Seward’s conduct with regard to the war and to his dipiomatie career the clatr- man said:—“A diplomatist was much like a tho- rough barrister; so that in arguing, though war ‘was on his lips, peace might be in his heart. He believed tnat that was the case with Mr. Seward, and that he had always been anxious that the eldeat and noblest daughter of England snouid be on good ‘terms with her parent. (Applause.) He was sure all were proud tosee him and wished nim a long continuance of life aud honor. (The toast was very heartily received.) : MR. SEWARD’S ADDRESS. Mr. Seward then made the following speech, which was frequently interrupted by applause:— 1 nave been more than once heretotore kindly Invited to meet societies in Asta, but those privi- leges were 1ost by reason either of fatigue or some other exigency of travel. 1 have therefore accepted this courtesy as a social welcome tendered me by the Europeans resid in India, while at the same time my preparation for an early departure obliges Me to take my final leave of the ust here.

Ihave been fre- quently asked, *Waat do you think of Bombay?” [ answer now, “The Byculla Cub 1s @ just exponent DI w great aud growing Oriental metropolis.” Two hundred years ago this magniticent bay came to a king of Engiand as the dowry of a Porvaguese prin- cess. Who could then have foreseen that under British rule it would become the gate of the East, the Constantinople of a new historical eray Yet this As one Of the Immediate results of the Suez Canal. 1 shall indeed continue my past endeavors to hurry on a ship canal across tiie Isthmus of Darien, a work which can hardly tail to give new importance to queenly Calcutta. But india is a vast country and cau Maintain two great commercial cities, as the world already has need of two iteroceanic chan- nels ef commerce. Gentlemen, 1 owe manifold acknowledgments outside the Byculla Club. Please suffer me to toake them here—to his Excellency the Viceroy aud many members of the Council of [mdia, to the authorities of Madras, Bengal, the Nerthwest Provinces, the Central Provinces, the Punjab and Bombay, to the Maharajahs of Benares and Puttialla and to mauy other native statesmen and scholars, Tor attentions which have made my travels in India equally a tour of pleasure and an Interesting study. If 1 could think it possible trat what 1 may now say could pass the confines of this country, } would add not leas grateful acknowledg- ments to the Portuguese authorities of ancient Goa, the authorities of the vigorous Straits sectie- ments, the authorities of the marvellously fruitful Netherlands India, and the authorities of just awakening China and Japan. Thus far, in a jour- ney round the world, Ihave had the pleasant part of St, Paul’s experience on his voy: rom, Jails to Rome—"So when this Was done others also came, who also honored us With many honors.” Gentie- men, immediately alter the Western discoveries of Coiumbus and the Eastern discoveries of Vasco ae Gama a hew and significant, shough in- accurate, nomenciature ootained in geography. ‘The worid was at once divided into two parts, one the oki and well known, the other the newly dis- covered or explored Indies, which embraced nearly all Asia and tue whole of America. The old and well known Western nations came suddenly under @ new and Vast responsibility. This responstbility included nothing less than @ regenerauion of an el- fete civilization In the so-called Indies of Asia and the establisiment of an original civilization in the so-called Indies Of America, A profound sense of this responsibility sustained the labors and shaped the characters of Colunivus and de Gat of Ubat- ham and burke, of Washington and Jefferson, of Xavier and Heber, Tell me not, thereiore, that ahis responsibility is merely a conceit of an ardent imagination, It is, 1 trust, gentlemen, aasympathy which exists between the hew ruling classes of the Eust and ty countrymen in this ele- ‘vated and humane sentiment taat I am indebted for the consideration Which it has given ime so much pleasure w acknowledge. We may well cherish and cultivate it. It need not Make us One Whit the less British, American, French, Portuguese, Italian, Danish, German or Dutcn, to accept the trust that whatever governments are establisied or main- tained by us amid the débris of Asiatic empires or in the chaos of America are established and imaintain- ed, not alone or chiefly for the advantage of the foreign founders, but for the welfare and happiness of the native races, among whom they are founded. Despite of scepticism, avarice and reaction- ary existen civilization in America, the Indies of the West, 18 a manifest euccesa. I am happy to say, as the result of my observation, that regeneration in Asia is equally proving itself to be a success. ‘There are, lideed, parts of India where ‘Western ideas, principles and inventions are only tolerated with reluctance. ‘These are the regions which were last reached by Europeans. On the other hand, those ideas, principles and inventions gre accepted and embraced cordiaily in other por- tions of the East which have been more convenientiy accessible. instance Japan, the coast and river regions of China, Java, Burmah, Madras, Bengal, Goa and Bombay, The inventions of steam; railroads, telegraph, and missiouar, colleges and schools ave come in good Ume to enable us to carry on the work of regenera- tion peacefully and humanely, which has often been rosecuted blunderingly as well as cruelly, by the ise Only of gunpowder. It cannot be long before the British government will verelieved of the neces- sity of mamtaming an Indian army to protect thetr [aera pie im India, and a European army to atch the Indian one. You must have noticed, gen- Uemen, a6 I have, @ new traitin the temper of our age. Europe does indeea still remain a theatre of international jealouses and ambition; but I think all the nations of the West have come at last to a harmonious agreement that those conficts shall no longer be extended into Asia, Polynesia and Ame- rica.

The vi work of extendin; modern civilization in the two henispheres, of whic! 80 large a share Of responsipility has devolved upon each mation, has @ tendency, perhaps, te make us rivals.

While Mr, Seward was In Bombay ne made @ trip to Goa, the summer residence of the Governor, in company with a party or gentlemen, The Governor gracefully placed, for this purpose, a steamer at their disposal, and gave Mr. Seward and party a princely reception, Real Admiral Cockburn offered to take Mr. Seward in his dagship up the Per- sian Gulf. Mr. Seward, however, wisely decided not to make the trip at this hot and inclement season. He left Bomvay a week ago in a steamer of the Peninsular and Oriental ine for Suez. AMUSEMENTS. Bootn’s THEATRE.—“The Winter's Tale’ was per- formed for the tbirty-ninth wine last evening at thia pouse, We have repeatedly alluded to the excel lent manner in which the play has been produced; in- deed, as far as scenery and other stage accessories are concerned, nothing hasbeen left uadone to make it enjoyable even to old playgoers. Mr. Lawrence Barrett's impersonation of Leontes, with all its blemishes, bespeaks the sympathies of the audience, and Mrs, Moilentauer, though at times cold and de clamatory, gives a very fair rendering ot Hermione, O1 the other members of the cast we have already spoken at considerable length. Next Monday evening the domestic drama en- tied ‘The Man o’ Airlie,” which was given up- wards of one hundred mes at tne Princess’ theatre, will be produced, with Mr. Barrett in the leading part. ‘he plot of the drama is taken from the German drama called ‘Laurel Tree and Beg: gar’s Stam’ It has, however, been so much altered and improved upon that it ts entitied to be cailed ap original play. As the title suggests, the action of the piece takes place in Scotiand, and the hero is aScoich poet, When performed in London it owed its success to the admirable acting of Mr. Herman Vezin as much as to its merit. The plot— if plot 1t can be called simpie; but the pathos which pervades the whole piece compensates for its Want oi action. We doubt not Mr. Karrett’s ability to till the leading part and that the play will be pro- duced in @ manner worthy of the reputation of this theatre. We hear thut the Caledonian Club—kilts and slli—has made arrangements to attend in a boay the first performance on Monday eveuing, Miss Morensi’s ConcER?.—AS was expected by her friends, the testimonial concert to Miss Mo- rensi-at the Brooklyn Academy of Music on Tuesday evening was quite successful. The house was not cfowded, but the audience was large, considering the excessive eat of the evening. Miss Morensi of course was the principal attraction, although sve was supported by several artists of distinction. After an absence of six years she showed by her excellent ren- dering of the masic selected that her voice and style were inuch improved. She was heartily applauded, especially after her singing of ‘*Kathieen Mavour- neep,”’ which she gave aS an encore. An orchestra of thirty pieces was directed by Carl Bergmann. Mrs. Gulager made her first appearance in Brooklyn in this concert as soprano, anu made a decided impression. Though lacking in power her voice ts rich, smooth and flexible. The baritone, Mr. Frea Steins, sang in fine style a8 an encore “Old Simon the Cellarer,”” and was rewarded with applause. Mr. Warren gave several selectionson a new pipe organ. Altogether the concert was very enjoyable. The following was the programme:— Part L . Overture—‘Oberon,” Weber; full orches- tra. 2.

NELSE SEYMOUR’S BENEFIT.—At Bryant's pretty hall, on Twenty-third street, the popular, jocular and elongated specimen of humanity known as Nelse Seymour will have a complimentary testimo- nial matinée this afternoon. Nelse is so well known, so universally esteemed as @ goed artist, and there- fore so immensely popular both tn public and pri- vate life, that it is safe to say, bis testimonial will be, as it should be, first class 10 every particalar. bs ss MUSICAL AND THEATRICAL NOTES.

A case occupying the attention of the Court yester- day for a considerable period was that of Leonora Allen, charged with embezzlement and petty larceny. The complamant was Annette Nacher, a French lady, who does business in Sixth avenue. She stated that the defendant was in her employment as shop girl, and that she gave her four dollars a@ week and her board, On the 29th of April last the complainant, according to her allegation, sent the detendant to collect a bill for three dollars and sixteen cents from @ Miss Gould, which she did not return to her mis- tress, but turned to her own account. On coming back to her mistress she said she had not received the money from Miss Gould, which story was after- wards ascertained to be untrue. For the defence the accused was placed on the stand. She stated that during the illness of her mistress she had worked for several days from five o’clock tn the moruing until twelve o'clock at night. During that time she returned to her mistress twenty-seven dollars which she had received during her illness. She stated that she did not owe the prosecutrix any money, but that the latter was seven dollars m debt to her at her leaving. At thfs stage of the proceedings she presented a photograph of the prosecutrix, which ste alleged she found in the pocket of her husband. Aiver making this statement she became overcome with grief and burst into a copious food of tears, which drew down the sympathy of the court in her favor. She further stated that since her in- carceration she had been visited by her husvand in the prison only twice, and on each of these occasions he asked her to consent to a divorce. She refused to sign the paper he_ pre- sented to her, stating se would sooner rot in jail first than consent to any such unholy action. She stated that it wasa conspiracy to get rid of her, that her persecators might have an opportonity of becoming man and wife. Mr. Fellows then said he did not wish to press the case on the attention of the jury with a view toa conviction, He should rather be in tavor of an acquittal, There was certainly a doubt in the case, and he should be for giving the prisoner the benefit ofthe doubt, He certainly should not ask for a con- viction. Judge Cardozo said he felt strongly like the Dis- trict Attorney. The jury ‘accordingly found a verdict of not guilty, atter which the prisoner fainted. So over- come was she that she had to be removed from the court by some of her friends, Frederick Cortland pleaded guilty to an attempt at grand larceny. He was remanded for sentence. Several prisoners were arraigned, but not being ready for trial, the court adjourned till this morning. SUPERIOR COURT—SPECIAL TEAM. Motion to Net Aside a Referee’s Report. Before Judge MeCunn, ge W.

At the death of Mr. Vlark there were two mortgages upon the property, one for $4,000 and the other for $2,300, ‘I'he interest upon these mortgages has not been paid since April, 1870, and proceedings have becn commenced by the parties holding mortgages to have them foreciosed, The case was referred to a referee, when the question of the anthority of the Children’s Aid Society to take the control of the property will be settled. A Divorce Aunulled. Dantel Breslin vs, Ellen Bresiin.—The parties in the above entitled case were divorced by order ot the Coart, April 1, 1869, on the report of 8. V. Lowell, referee. Yesterday they presented through their respective counsel a stipulation signed by both par- ties and duly witnessed, agreeing that the judgment dissolving their marriage should be be opened, va- cated and set aside, and that the report referred to should also be set aside and annulled.

Trial of the Prisoners aed Conviction of Murray=Sent to State Prison for Twenty Years. Before Justice Bedford. At the General Sessions yesterday, Walter Moffat, James Woodruff and Joseph Murray were indicted for robbery of the Central Park Savings Bank and an assault upon Mr. Andrew Eliis, the cashier. The bank ts situated on Third avenue, between For- ty-fiftn and Forty-sixth streets. On the 3d of April the complainant was Officiating at his desk, and at about half-past eleven o'clock, immediately after the departure of some depositors, three men en- tered the front door of the bank, and approaching Mr, Ellis before he had time to suspect their pur- pose jumpea over the counter, KNOCKED THE OLD GENTLEMAN ON THE FLOOR, placed a handkerchief about his neck, another in his mouth, securely tied his feet together with a strong cord and in other Ways secured him and pre- vented his making any outcry. They then pro- ceeded to rob the bank of $460, and were disturbed in their burglary by tne arrival of Dr. Alexander Hadden, The men escaped, but were subsequenuy arrested and identified. All the evidence In the case was received only against Joseph Murray, Who was on trial alone. ihe other two deiendaais were placed at the bar for purposes of rientification only, thew trials having been put off unui the conclusion of Murray's case, For THE DEFENCE Mr. Spencer called tie record clerk of the Tombs Prison, Who produced his book and read of the names of Waiter Woodruff and James Moffat, who had been confined on a charge of carrying burglarious instruments. They had only been released on the 1ith day of April—eight days alter the robbery of the savings bank. The name of Joseph Murray was not ‘on the book, 2 A Mr. Shieids who keeps a restaurant In First ave- nue, near Thirty-fourth street, testified that THE PRISONER, MURRAY, WAS IN HIS PLACE on the 3a of April, the day of the robbery, trom avout nine o’clock in the morning until after twelve the same day; he remembered this distinctly, but did nov remember who asked him to appear as a witness—whether it was the wife of the prisoner or nis mother that calied on him—vut he thought it was both mother and wile; he thought the wife came in the theme J ‘and the mother in the evening; did not remember the day of the month, the hour or the Week; did not remember anything, io fact, but that the accused was in his place at THE TIME OF THE ASSAULT on Bilis, ‘The prosecution conceded that the prisoners, who were jointly indicted with Murray—Woouraf and Moffat—were in the Tombs prison from the 30th of March until the 11th of April. Consequently, they could not have been engaged in the robbery. After the prisoner testifying in his own behalf the case was submitted to the jury under the charge of his Honor by consent of counsel. Judge Bedford simply charged that if the jory credited the story by the defence—viz: that the ae aoe. Was at Shields’ dining saioon at he time the robbery was commitved—the accused should be promptly acquitted; but if, on the contrary, they thought and believed that the prisoner was ONK OF THR PARTY participating in the outrage, they #uguld then render A Yerdict in accor‘ance with that belief and find Murray guilty of the offence charged. The jury then retired and ajter an absence of about half an hour returned into court with a ver- dict of ‘a ‘The Assistant District Attorney MOVED FOR SENTENCE and Mr. Spencer moved for a new trial on some tech- nical grounds. The motion was denied. Judge Bedford remarked, in sentencing the pris. | oner, as follows:—Murray, you have been convicted | ofa bo d robbery, a darmg outrage, which, Indeed, is caleulated to startle the law-abiding citizens of this city.

THE BOWEN BI The Necords of the County Cle Office of his City Sought After—An Unaccountable Disappearance. Daring the trial at Wasnington of Congressman C. C, Bowen the defence introduced in evidence | a decree purporting to show that Mr. Bowen had been divorced from his first wife in the city of New York in March, 1465, and that such decree had been | signed by Judge Barnard. Thereupon United Siates | Attorney Fisher telegraphed to Judge Davis, United | States District Attorney in this city, to | look into the matter and cause inquiry to be mstiuted in the State courts. Judge Davis instructed one of his assistants to make the required investigation, who accordingly proceeded to exatuine, as desired, and who found in the County k's oflice the entry of a decree divorcing 0. C, Bowen from his wife, Frances C, Bowen, the words ©, ©, Bowen and Frances C. Bowen having been written over words which had evidently been erased. He next examined the re- cords in the County Clerk's oilice, but did not find upon the file a decree relating to any such divorce. He also searched through Judge Barnard’s minutes | for March, 1865, but these did not present | any mention whatever of tie decree of divorce in question, It appears from what Mr. Loew, the County Clerk, states, that there had been betore he came into office, a divorce case of Bowen vs. Bowen in which a decree of divorce had }een granted, but that the decree and judgment record had disap. peared from the oilce records. It ts further stated that the names in te ¢ mpliied papers sent to Washington had been changed. Mr. Loew, some of his ofictals. has, it is understood, been suminoned to Washington to testify in regard to the affair. Very good; but what has vine of the re- cords? The question may be good for high, but What for Loew? HORSE NOTES.

MR. BONNER'S HORSES. “Fifth Avenue” in Reply to “Delaware.” To THE Epiror oF THE HERALD:— lobserve that your correspondent, “Delaware,” does not like it because Mr. Bonner does not imitate the course adopted by certain distinguished Vir- ginia gentlemen of the olden time and race his horses for money. Now, I nad supposed that in these United States every citizen was at liberty to follow nis own inclinations and judgment in such matters. Mr. Bonner publicly announced fifteen years ago that, while he was fond of good horses and would pay liberally to get the very best specimens of the equine race, he would never allow any horse belonging to him to trot for money. Has he not as good a right, in this free country, to refuse to race his horses for @ wager as other men have to en- gage in such pastimes? or must every | man who owns a good norse be compelied to | trot his favorite animal for money? Then the Rev. Dr. Gardiner Spring and hundreds of other gooa men, who always owned and drove fast road norses, should have been obliged under pressure of public opinton to appear upon the race course and “back their opinions’ with (if you will par- don the use of the modern expression) “their vottom dollar.’ Tue “honorable Vir- ginia gentlemen” to whom your correspondent refers and whose example he holds up for Mr. Bonner to foltow were, I believe, in many instances not only addicted to horse racing, but to cock fighting also.
