THE AMENDMENTS NOT ACCEPTED. Her Majesty’s Government Decline to Accede to the Senate Modifications With- out Full Explanations, PROBABLE FAILURE OF THE TREATY #.A Postponement of the Geneva Tribunalz the Only Hope. WASHINGTON, June 1, 1872. The British Minister was in consultation with Secretary Fish this afternoon until after six o’clock respecting the probable failure of the treaty in the wevent that the British government should decline Sto ratify the Senate Supplemental Treaty. It is un- f derstood that Earl Granville has informed General Schenck, who in turn communicated it to e Secretary Fish this that Her Ma- Jesty’s government decline to sign the proposed unless explana- evening, must Senate article tions are fully given as to the meaning of theif amendments to the article proposed by the British government. As the matter is now entirely in the hands of the Senate, and as the members of the Committee on Foreign Relations are, with a single exception, opposed to any oc what- ever, England must take the responsibility of withdrawing from = arbitration. Members of the pinet and leading administration Senators j share in the hopes that the Treaty is a failure. Great Britain is willing, however, to postpone the matter and defer arbitration, if the United States = is willing to further discuss the subject. This isnow munder consideration. The President was at his room at the Capitol to-night sign- ing bills. While he remained in his room ihe showed the latest despatch from Lord Granville toa namber of Senators. This de- B) spatch contained nothing new, but is simply a relt- peration of the old demand for explanation, The feeling now is that the British government desires to tide the matter over the present session of the Senate, and so be able to carry on further negotia- tions with the plastic vessel known as the Secre- tary of State, independently of the advisory capa- city of the Senate. The determintion not to recede any further isj stlil uppermost, but it is understood that a request for time for more careful consideration of the supplemental article has been made by the British government. This request, if it means anything, must mean a postponement of the Geneva Tribunal, which should meet on the 15th. Without such postponement the treaty would be a failure, in spite of all the consideration which either gov- ernment can give it, and no opportunity would be afforded Mr. Fish to back down again, for it would fall by its own terms. : CENTRAL PARK. The bright sunshine yesterday tempted’ ont an unusually large number of pleasure-seekers to the fi Park, and they doubtless found abundant means of enjoyment. The Mall, broad as it 1s, was@so i crowded that it failed to serve the peripatetic needs of the people who thronged along it to the band stand, and the turf on either side—thrown open on Saturdays only for the convenience of the My puduc—was dotted with beautiful women, in hand- some dresses, attended by well-dressed cavaliers. The music was more than ordinarily good, and Dod- worth's band rendered the following programme with singularly effective skill. ‘ Pakt 1. 1 . Overture, *Festiv 3.

Occasion. ow that the yachting season of 1872 has set in, builders are hurrying up their work and getting their new boats into the water. Pat McGiehan launched yesterday afternoon from his building yard at Pamrapo, N. J., one of the handsomest sloop yachts ever fashioned in these waters. This new candidate for aquatic honors has been built for Commodore Beling, of the Bayonne Yacht Club, one of the most enthusiastic yachtsmen in these waters. Commodore Beling sailed last season In the Kaiser Wilh helm of that fast little craft he took seven prizes; but, as he intends Bcruising Sonth this winter, he ordered a larger craft, as the Kaiser was a little too sinall for com- fort or a long cruise. Several hundred people were congresated yester- day afternoon to witness the launch, and at ten minutes to five the stops were knocked out and she glided gracefully into the water amid the the assembled spectators, ‘To Mrs. Mi wife of the builder, was allotted the happy christening this memento of her husband's handi- omplished her part of the pro- and dexterity, calling the new META, Beling’s only daughter.

THE NATIONAL GAME. { Three First Class Contests—Defeat of the Athletics by the Mutuals, the Baltimores by the Forest Citys and the Resolutes by the Mans fields—The Mutual-Athletic Game One of the Finest on Reo- ord—Pitching Wins. Not less than seven thousand persons assembled fon the Union Gronnds, Williamsburg, yesterday af- ternoon, to witness the first game of the season, between the Athletics, of Philadelphia, and the Mutuals, of this city. Judging from the extraordi- nary manner in which the former club has defeated Bevery nine they have played this season, as wellas the high repulation each and every one of their players bears for both batting and flelding f ability, seven-tenths of those who thronged to the E beautiful grounds over the river yesterday were of the opinion that the home club would be beaten, But opinions in relation to base ball in these days, when all the regular professional clubs are com- posed of such. strong materials, are not worth the uttering. The betting men—and their name is legion—who follow and back the Athletics, were of course on hand with plethoric pocketbooks and winning smiles, Betting opened pretty lively at odds of 100 to 30 on Philadelphia, of course, but soon changed to 100 to 40,at which point it stood when thei game opened. At these figures not less than fifteen thousand dollars changed hands. One gen- tleman who does business within a stone's throw of the HeRALD establishment invested $500 on the Mu- tuals at the odds last mentioned, while a well known uptown betting man went to the grounds with $2,300 and returned with A TRIFLE OVER $4,800, At precisely thirty-five minutes past three o'clock f “play” was called, the Athletics going first to the bat. Cuthbert and McBride, the two first strikers, § retired on foul. balls, well taken by Hicks. Meyerle® sent up a very high ball, and, as it went in the di- ction of centre field, the New Yorkers felt peri BR fectly easy, being assured that Fggler would at- tend to it in his usual style; but imagine their surprise and disgust when that p! dropped Bit outright.

Treacy fouled to Hicks, and Anson got his | 0 1 balls, but was left by McGeary's striking out. On the Mutual side Boyd and MeMullen each fouled to Malone, and § Pearce was captured by McGeary and Mack. Mack opened the third Inning by driving a ter- rifle liner to third base, which Boyd Jumped for and took with one hand. This brilliant plece of flelding: was enthusiastically and deservedly applauded. Cuthbert and McBride again fouled to Hicks, the former on a bound and the latter on the fly, nicely taken, About this time there was a perceptible decline in Athlethic stock, as it was clearly evident the boys could not bat Cummings, who was sending the ball in like a rifle shot, The Mutuals closed the inning by going out in the order of their striking. ‘THE FOURTH INNING. Meyerle and Malone, the first two strikers in this inning, each gave Hicks a foul fy, which was care- my, uttended to. Fisler, after Knocking up some fy half dozen fouls, finally got to first on called balls. Treacy now took the bat, and made the first base hit of the day for his club, sending a nice pel, grounder to left fleld, on which Fisler got to third, The prospect for the Philadelphians now getting in a run was very good i Anson, the next striker, gave Hit another foul, and the side was out. Start made a clean base hit for the New Yorkers, but Bechtel sent a nice liner to Fisler, who took it in, and then fielded the ball to first base in time for a doubie play by catching Joe before he could return. Hicks @ cave Malone afoul bound, and the fourth inning was over and passed. Each’ side was retired in one-f two-three order in the fifth inning, Hicks and Boyd each getting dificult foul balls. In the sixth inning the visitors broke the spell which seemed to have settled over them and managed to hit Cummings for two runs, one earned, icBride, Malone and Fisler did the hitting, while Meyerle, Treacey and Anson furnished the outs, Cummings struck out on the Mutual side, but Eggler got in another of his characteristic fair-fouls past third, on which he made two bases with ease. He got no further, indeed, but however, as the next two strikers, Hatfield and Start, were victimized by Meyerle and Cuthbert respectively. THE ATHLE! now had the lehd, which seemed to depress the spirits of the greater portion of the assemblage not alittle, But this sort of thing was destined to be short-lived, for at the close of the next inning the @ score stood—Mutual, 3; Athletic, 2, and figures were not changed, McGeary, the Athlet- ics’ first striker in this inning, was’ captured by FEggler; but Mack, Cuthbert and Meyerle each ‘followed with good _ hits, however, furnishing thé second out on afly toMecMullen, The bases were now filled, and Malone faced Cummings todo or die, A ball’ was calied and then a strike; then Fergy hit a foul, af- ter which another ball was called, and dnally another strike. Things were just now frighfully critical—three men on bases, two out, two balls and two strikes called. A good hit would play havoe with the Mutuals, which fact the vast assem- Dlage were not slow to appreciate. THE STILLNESS OF DEATH seemed suddenly to settle over the fleld and every oue held his breath in anxious expectation. But the spell was quickly over, for Malone proved him- self unequal to the Occasion. Striking out viciously he gent the ball up to a great height and it. fell foul into the ever ready hands of Joe Start a little outside of first base. The Athletics were chagrined and so Bwere some of the betting men. For the “Mutes" Bechtel got to first on three balls and Rent to second on Hicks’ grounder to Anson, which was muifed, Hicks making his first. Boyd now came up, and as his reputation as a “battist’’ is none the best, but little was expected of him. He disappointed even his best. friends, however, and perhaps none more than himself by ending a magpificent liner between right and ‘tre field, on Which he got to second base and ent Hicks and Bechtel home. McMullen gave Fisler a warm grounder and was fielded out at first; and Mack sent the ball flying over to third in time to catch Boyd, who was running to third. Pearce got to first on a nice grounder to right field, but was forced out at second by Cummings. IN THE EIGHTH INNING, after two hands were out, the Athletics again got three men on bases and Cuthbert at the bat. Two balls were cailed and one strike before he made an attempt to hit the ball. Then he sent up two fouls, after which he hit and missed the ball—the second strike. Two balls were pitehed without the um- ires saying anything; but when Cummings sent a fair ball right over the base and Cuthbert failed to strike at it, Ferguson called the third strike for doing which he was heartily applauded. The ninth and last chance now came for th Philadelphians. McBride fouled to Boyd, Meyerle sent MeMullen a high fly, and Malone knocked up a ‘h fell about ten feet foul of the line to first near the home plate, and which was captured ings on the bound, citement which now followed beggars de- scription. Boys and men, both young and old, shouted, screamed, shook hands, jumped in the alr, threw up their hats and gave vent to their feelings in every conceivable manner. The Athletics, of course, felt blue, but, never- theless, bore their defeat in a maniy man- ner. The game as a whole was one of the best ever played and was won by the Mutuals through the superiority of Cummings’ pitching, which was almost perfection. ‘The iollowing is the score, the column headed indicating errors made :— ¢ worval Pla RAB.

The river was “studded with craft of every shape,” from the bulky mud scow to the gossamer shell. Every available boat on the river as ont, and the watermen must have realized a smalg fortune. The occasion which called forth this unu- sual excitement was the openings of the Gramercy and Lotta Boat Clubs. The former had intended to hold their opening after the next mecting, Which takes place at Teutonia Hall on Thursday night next, but as most of the members were present it was decided to hold it yesterday. Although the “Leary men’? of th ‘amerey were not on hand, they made a first rate display. The Lottas, who are one of the youngest clubs om the river, appeared yesterday to the best advantage, and will—if yesterday's performance be taken ag@ B sample of what they can do—give some of the older clubs on the river a good shake before the season is over. Everything conspired to make the oc- casion most enjoyable, The weather was warm and the river like @ sheet of glass, still there was a good breeze stirring. The several boat houses on the river were gaily dressed with flags and crowded with spectators, who, on the return of the crews cheered loudly. There were several salutes fired from the Gram- ercy’s float, and fire crackers innumerable set otf by “parties on the ba Below will be found Separate mention of the opening, TUE GRAM CY BOAT CLI as before stated, did not intend to have their open- ing on Saturday alternoon, but for the reason pre- viously i they felt justified in holding ft, althotigh no oficial notice had been: given, ney had no race, but most of their boats were out, manned by or club, There was th charge of the following « Mills, No, 2; Karlton, Ne in which the lady frien Ban excursion up the river. eight-oared barge, manned by the following a ville, No. 2; Jenkins, No. 3 gar, No. 4; Mills, No. 5; H.
