France Unable or Unwilling to Pay. Whe Stipulations of the Treaty and Sub- sequent Arrangements. PRINCE BISMARCK THREATENS DANGER. TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD. The following despatch has been received m the Heratp special correspondent in erlin: — + Brewin, June 23, 1871. Prince Bismarck has addressed an impera- jive demand to the French government for the immediate payment of the first instalment of the war indemnity, which, according to the rms of the treaty of peace, is to be paid thirty lays after the re-establishment of the autho- ity of the French government in Paris. HZ PRECISE DATE ON WHICH THE FIRST IN- i STALMENT IS DUE. Prince Bismarck in his note to M. Jules fFavre holds that the forces of the French government entered Paris on May 21, that the ‘weity was reoccupied and the authority of the yovernment virtually re-established on May 5, when nearly all the insurgents had been illed, taken prisoners, or had surrendered to onde MacMahon, and that the first instal- ment of 500,000,000 francs is therefore ptrictly due on Jane 24. )\AGREEMENT BETWEEN PRINCE BISMARCK AND M. THIERS. By an arrangement between Prince Bis- marck and M. Thiers it had been agreed that {125,000,000 francs out of the first instalment Bhould be paid at an earlier period than that fixed by the treaty of peace, Prince Bismarck jaccepting this sam in French bank notes, on ondition that the remainder of the first instal- ent and in addition to it 125,000,000, to be leducted from the second instalment, should paid in gold or its equivalent thirty days fter the reoccupation of Paris, as stipulated by the treaty of peace. WHAT FRANOE HAS ALREADY PAID. In compliadce with this agreement France aid 40,000,000 francs on May 25, another 000,000 on June 1, and 45,000,000 on June {15—125,000,000 in all—in French bank notes. Remaining due on May 24, 500,000,000 francs, payable in gold. NOT SO VERDANT. The French government has offered its own Dank notes in payment of this sum also, which offer Prince Bismarck peremptorily refused. ASKING ANOTHER DELAY. M. Thiers then requested another delay, paying that the funds were needed for the re- jief of Paris and to carry on the government, jand that the sum for the payment of the first [instalment could, just now, only be obtained ‘on ruinous terms. PRINCE BISMAROK UNYIELDING. In reply, Prince Bismarck says that the im- perial government will grant no further delay, jand hints that forced requisitions and danger- ‘ous consequences will ensue if the money does mot come forward. ; GERMANY.

TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD. We have received the following telegram from our special correspondent in Berlin: — Brrr, June 23, 1871, A serious complication has arisen between Germany and England, and severe despatches are passing between Prince Bismarck and Ear! Granville. THE DIFFIOULTY. The German government observes impene- trable silence on the subject of the pre- sent difficulty, but I am informed that Prince Bismarck has addressed a note to Count Bernstorff, the German representative in London, informing him that the imperial German government desired to acquire Heligoland, and empowering him to make propositions to the British government for the purchase of the island. ENGLAND WILL HOLD ON TO HELIGOLAND, Earl Granville replied in the same manner, sayiog that England will not part with Heli- goland, and that the British government could entertain no propositions looking to the ces- sion of that island, i BISMARCK BELLICOSE. Upon which Prince Bismarck again ad- dressed the British government through Count Bernstorff, declaring that the acquisition of Heligoland was necessary for the protection of the German coast, reciting as an instance the facilities for coaling and immunity from attack ylieh the Beeneh, Geet, enjoyed ot Heligoland, by which it was enabled to blockade Hamburg and paralyze the commerce of the German coast. He looked upon Heli- goland, on account of its close proximity, as German territory, and its possession by any foreign Power, as a standing menace to Ger- many. EARL GRANVILLE INFLEXIBLE. Earl Granville again replied that England was only bound to consider her own interests ; that the wish of the German government to acquire Heligoland did not constitute her right to it, as the island had never been under Ger- man rule. The controversy now rests at this stage. THE GERMAN PRESS ON HELIGOLAND. All the unofficial papers in Berlin are dis- cussing the chances for the acquisition of Heli- goland, while the official press is either guarded or silent on the subject, s fact which is inter- preted as one of great significance.

Official Report of the Rezatta Comm ittee— No. 81-2 the Buoy on the Southwest Spit All the Yachts Sailed the Race—The Schooner Tidal Wave and Sloops Addie and Breoze Awarded the Prizes. “Buoy There was much interest manifested in yachting circles yesterday in relation to the probable decision of the Regatta Committee of the New York Yacht Club in the matter of the winning boats im the grand regatta of Thursday. Not alone did owners of yachts and members of divers yachting clubs seek advice for personal satistaction as to which buoy on the Southwest Spit was the one mtended to be rounded by the fleet, but the public generally were agitated, and as a consequence never were there so many nautical disquisitions as to the causes which led certain sailing masters to mistake, as they held, the buoy marked No. $4 for that marked No. 10. Early yesterday morning thosé more particularly anxious consulted with the pilots of the port and old ship- ping masters, and in frequent interviews pumped these gentlemen ofall their knowledge bearing upon the subject. The office of the Secretary of the Club was besieged throughout the day by yachtsmen and citizens, who sought to obtain something defi- nite bearing on the annoying matter, but apart from urmises very little serviceable information was re- ceived in that quarter, Finally one and all con- cluded to await the public announcement of the committee’s consultations and labors, but yet such resolve was not willingly made, At three o'clock the Regatta Committee, composed of Messrs. Philip Schuyler, Stuart M. Taylor and Wilttam Butler Duncan, met at the office of the latter and entered upon the work before them with com- mendable zeal. The resuit of their labors will be found in the appended oMcial report. Its perusal will convince the most sceptical that their conclu- sions were not arrived at until competent autnority had been consulted, and perhaps the devision rendered may satisfactorily settie a question that in the future might be the cause of much contention and dissatisfaction. The committee nas decided that buoy No. 814 is “the buoy on the Southwest Spit,” buoy No. 10 being ‘‘west of Southwest Spit,'’ and thus adjudge that all the yachts in the fleet sailed over the right course, Consequently the fortu- hate schooner Tidal Wave, owned by Mr. William Voorhts, is the winner of three prizes of her class, #he Regatta Cup, Challenge Cup and Subscription Cup, and that the pretty sloop Addie, owned by Mr. Wil- liam H. Langley, is likewise fortunate in her class. The committes also awards the regatta prize tor second class sloops to the Breeze, owned by A. C. Kingsland, Jr., she being the only yacht entered of her class, There were many observing spectators along the course that did not know the Breeze was among the concestants; yet that is not improbable, as the race for her was simply ‘a walk over.” The official report of the committee 1s as follows:— New York, June 23, 1871. CHARLES A.

Although, perhaps, there will not be as many spectators to-day as the regatta of Thursday brought together, yet it will be well worth witnessing.
