A thrill of excitement pervaded the organizations engaged in the strike last might. Rumors of riotous conduct were circulated, and it was stated that one of the firms engaged in the furniture busi- mess had on Tuesday received a letter threat- ening the burning of their establish- ment. In some of the meetings last night ‘he press was anathematized by those at whose hands it deserved the most for rendering intelligible their badly-constructed harangues, In other quarters threats of violence were received with hisses and peaceable action under all circam- stances counselled. ‘The letter from Governor Hoft- man, given below, has attracted great attention:— LETTER FROM GOVERNOR HOFFMAN, Srare or New Yorr, ) Exxcurive Cuamngr, ALtany, June 1, 1872. § Ps Sme—Yours ot yesterday’ was received this morn- by the Fight-Hour League to me and thereto. heir complaint 5 by the committee who memorial, was that some of their people without justification, been violently beaten by a policeman, and t ciaimed that the police interfered with them’uuduly, when they were entirely peaceable and orderly. control over the police of New York, and no Fight to make orders regniating them or to revoke orders nade by the Commissioners. -{, nevertheless, ussured tie Petitioners that [ would cause the matter to be investi- gated, and that I was confident the Commissioners would panish any policeman who used violence wi not necessary, and would give to them the protection which ‘was due to any citizen under the laws of the State.

Meeting of Morocco Case Manufacturers At a meeting of the Morocco Case Manufacturers of the city of New York, held at the rooms of Sam- uel ©. Jackson, 180 Broadway, Mr. A. Wiggers in the chair, P. L, North acting secretary, it was unanimously Resolved, after carefully considering, the demands made upon them by their employes (to adopt eight hours as a day's work, at the same wages as are now paid for ten), that it would be impossible for them to grant the demand; ant, that they would in no ease employ any man on any other terms than ten hours’ work for ten » honrs’ pay. Ui was also Resolved, Thata copy of the foregoing resolutions be forwarded to the President of the Casemakers' Union at 2 their rooms. sain ALBERT WIGGINS, President. P. L, NortH, Secretary.

Todt, Solo- mon Birge, Frederick Springer, George W. Walker and Henry Koch, It was stated that the Gorham Manufacturing Company, of Providence, have signified their ap- proval and acquiescence in the above resolution. The Iron Moulders. The moulders employed in the various iron works in the city met last night at Hauk's Hotel, corner of Thirty-fourth street and Ninth avenue, There were about eighty persons in the room, and ® temporary chairman was chosen. While some confusion occurred in the necessary movement for the choice of permanent officers a delegation from the cabinet makers was reported and on motion admitted. The delegation consisted of a single individual, who came forward, and, without a word of warning, broke out in the fol- lowing speech :— Mk. PRESIDENT AND GENTLEMEN—There have been two of a committee appointed to come down here and inform you we are getting along pretty bad, A committee of us went up to Steinway’s this morning, but did not have much success. We want to get up a demonstration on Monday. I was down to-day, too, with a committee, to see Superintendent Kelso, to have the police stop inter- fering with the committees, He gave usa permit and a police guard. I don’t want to insult any one here, but if there is a German among you, you know what a slur is thrown upon them. Now, rf have got any pluck you'll come out with us, and if the bosses won't give im we will make them. The bosses say that one half the men in the city are willing to work if the other half will let them. We want to get up a good crowd to show them it ain't s0, and we Will strike terror to the hearts of the bosses. (Cheers ) The delegate from the cabinet makers here stated that he was obliged to visit the plum and must withdraw. He was awarded a vote of thanks, and, in return, expressed his gratitude, Charles Hopkins was chosen permanent, presi- dent, Patrick Malion’secretary and William Baugho treasurer. A report was received from Nicol Billerwell’s “Hammersley” foundry. The junior partner had 4 stated to a committee of the men of this foundry that they were willing to adopt the eight-hour sys- tem on and after Monday next and advised them to attend the meeting at Hank’s Hote! The report ‘ was received with cheers, AMr. Perkins made a somewhat lengthy speech, setting forth that the worst ¢ les the working men had were among themselves, being those who sought to curry favor from their employers by working over time. Ile protested that the men did not want the additional two hours’ time for the purpose of spending it in gin mills, but for their advancement in a knowledge of sociology, polt- tics and general information. A committee from tho “Oregon” foundry reported that the proprietors had refused them a satisiactor reply to their demands and they had struck unani- mously. (Cheers.) ‘A committee from the A. & F. Brown foundry re- ported no definite answer received from the iirm, and the men on strike. ‘A committee from Roach's ‘Morgan Iron Works" reported as above, and men on strike. A member ded that Mr. Roach said he only cleared ten per cent profit, and he would divide that with the men, He reconsidered the proposition a moment alter- wardeand offered them a (Cheers,) Quintard’s Works Were ot renresented. and a NEW YORK HERALD, THURSDAY, JUNE 6, 1872—TRIPLE SHEET. volunteered information that the men would strike this morning in case the proprietors d to adopt the system. Mm as no ‘direct report from Jackson & Burnett’s, bat it was understood that Mr. Jackson said he had resisted strikers Jor six months belore i he could resist them for six months again. Kly’s foundry was heard from next. One of the workmen only had been asked to go to work to-day at eight o'clock. The President suggested that the man should do as requested, and the Treas- urer added that any men who should be offered work ander the eight-hour ruling should accept it. He said they were fighting for eight hours, and when the employers acceded to this demand that was all that could be required. They did not pro- ose to dictate how many men should be employed, pat only that those who were employed should not be required to work more than eight hours, A Vorce—If we say they must employ all men who worked there before ‘the strixe we are going out of our sphere, and it is an attempted outrage. Globe Iron Works.—A member stated, on informa- tion from a meiter, that the proprietors of these works neceded without opposition to the demand for the eight-hour rule, The president substan- tated the statement, Morgan Iron Works in Twelfth street reported as adopung the eight-hour rule to-day. Van Tassel was reported as having offered half his men short time, but all withdrew, The Hudson River Railroad brass and iron foun- ore without moulders, ail of them being on the strike. Swift's foundry is to be run on and after to-day only eight hours per day. Delamater’s works are not running, as all the employés, including boys, are out on strike. Mr. Delamater told the men they closed the works, not he. Grifith’s foundry was not heard from, and it was suggested that the men employed there should be pulled out. A member here arose and said he did not like to hear such tulk. Pulling men out was not the thing to talkabout. This was a free country, and the em- loyers as well as the workmen were supposed to have cer- tain rights and liberty, Ifmen could not be prevailed upon by arguinent to act in the struggle le them go. They had a right to work ten hours if they chose. The President added that the movement was in accordance with the law and not against it. One attempt to use foree by a committee would do them more harm than @ peaceable etfort lasting halfayear, (Vheers.) A Striker Arrested. Yesterday morning about twenty housesmiths, who are on strike, headed by William Hart, visited ashop in Thirty-seventh street, near Ninth avenue, and demanded that every person at werk in the place knock off and join them. ‘The journeymen relused to comply with their demand, and Would have been roughly handled by rowd but Jor the timely arrival of Serg Lowery of the Twentieth precinct, who dispersed theni and took Ha eustody On a charge of disorderly con- duet. He was arraigned before Justice Cox. at Jeterson Market yesterday afternoon and locked up. Eight Hour Demonstration, The Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Workingmen’s League called upon the Commis- sioners of Police yesterday, and informed them that the workingmen of the city intended making a demonstration of | strength ow the 10th inst. ‘The proposed route will be down the Bowery to the City Hall, up Broadway to Four- teenth street, across Fourteenth str avenue up the Fighth avenue to Twenty-third st across that strect to Second avenue, then down the Second avenue to Fourteenth street to avenue A, and finally to the Cooper Institute, where the pro- cession will be dismissed, LABOR IN MASSACHUSETTS. The Workmen of the Various Crafts in Boston Agitating fer the Eight-Hour Law. Boston, June 5, 1872. There is very general movement among the Mechanics of Boston and vicinity looking to the establishment ofeight hours asa day’s work. The marble workers, slate and tin roofers, sheet iron workers and other crafts held meetings last night for organization. THE TRINITARIAN QUAKERS, Se tee ee The Conference at Worship—The nm of a Prophet Among His Own People—One of God’s Colored “Instruments”—The State of the Church, e Yesterday the Trinitarian Quakers held solemn service for public worship in the Gramercy Park Meeting House, at half-past ten o’clock, as they also did in the Washington street Meeting House, in Brooklyn. “Announced by all the trumpets of the sky,” the rain fell in drizzling clouds and made gloomy the interior of the church and the assembled faces, upon which the long, dark shadows rested. The meeting in here was comparatively small. When the first space of silence had continued for a few moments Jonathan Devole, who sat upon the second of the “high seats,” got down upon his knees and opened a fervent and lengthy prayer. When he had finished he was followed by Mary N. Thomas, whose supplication was still more pathetic and eloquent. Her voice is searching and incisive, and her sentences, as she utters them, supposi- tiously ex tempore, are tolerably harmonious and clear, She isa wee bit ofa woman, but is apparently gifted with no mean faculties, Her mind is well balanced, and not of the fanatic type. Sarah Congton delivered a sermdn from the text, “We were sometime in darkness; but now have we the light in the Lord.” it was a great favor that that light had come into the world. “Tam THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD,” said the Lord, What a treasure was the fact that the manifestation of His spirit was given to every one of them, and that [He had loved to lay down iis life for their sake! After these few words she sat down slightly overcome with confusion. Pnese HATHAWAY, 2 tall, masculine woman, dressed in the extreme Quaker garb, with a stolid, intense face and an ungainly figure, stood up among the highest of the “high seats” on the right side of the house, and preached a vigorous and emphatic sermon, in which she accused those present, of hiding the face of God ‘rom them because of their iniquities, It was sin and always had been sin, and that alone, that had séparated the human race from God, and yet He in His infinite wisdom had provided a way whereby man could again be united with Him, And with this hope he could look foi ward to an after existence. She concluded by ex- horting them to trust in Him_ every moment, for in prosperity they would need Him, in adversity they would need Him, and if in temptation they looked to Him. He would save them. THE SON OF A PROPHET. Lindley M. Hoag was the next preacher. He isa son of the celebrated Joseph Hoag, who, teu years before the war of rebellion, prophesied its occur- rence and the abolition of siavery, and finally that an empire would succeed to republican government. in this country. Shortly after the utterance of this. prophecy, which was given him, as he said, hy a voice which came to him from the clonds while he was walking in the fields, he died, leaving it behind him to astonish the world. It was ablished in all the newspapers in the East and West, North and South, long before the war-cloud burst, and part of its truth is thus far proven. The son of this remarkable man has the look and the bearing of one of the wise men of old, the evi- dence, perhaps, of the inspired blood which flows in his veins. He is tall and commanding in_ presence, with a broad chest and large shoulders, long arms that fit well to sweeping gestures, and dresses ina plain, slightly négligé habit. His face is large and of the Roman type, with shining russet-gray hair, and a long silvery beard, like that of a patriarch. MIS PREACHING, But, though the son a prophet, his preaching is not particularly eloquent, and is sometimes pain- fully diffuse, reiterative and prolix. He seems not to be specially honored among his own people, although he does sit at the most advanced place of honor in the Assembly, During his long and tedious discourse yesterday the audience grew very rest- less, ‘The venerable and wealthy hook publisher, William Wood, an elder, highest in authority in the Church, after the first hour of listening had'slipped Dy took up his emquent broad-brim and ced it on his heal as a warning signal. Elizabeth Comstock, a little woman who is quite bongs and attractive, and sits on the second of the “high seats’ on the right, played nervously with ber handkerchief and grew flushed in the fai Another dignified eider donned his hat and changed his place from the highest seat to one on a level with commen mortais, and by this time the congre- gation began once more to simmer like a broluing heefsteak. The sermon was almost a continuation of the previous one in subject and thought, An elderly lady now arose in the midst of the congregation, She was quite fashionably attired in gray mournin She said something in a very low, trembling tone about “just receiving the power of the Spirit” and then sat down all ina heap, like the poor woman in the “Tale of Two Cities,” who used to flop so incessantly after being rebuked se- verely by her “worser half.” VOICE OF THE LIBERATED, Immediately afterward a colored lady stood up. She attracted all eyes to her. Her presence was evidently a great surprise. She wasa mulatto, with the long, protruding jaw, low forehead and thick lips of her -race. On the ex. treme buck of the head she wore @ small net, which had the unmistakable ar ‘or omnia from a Methodist bandbox. Her other attire was of the same color. She looked like a dark and gloomy spectre against the sickly white- ness of the pillar near which she stood. Her speech Was a rhapsody on the blood of Jesus, in which she referred im affecting terms to the degradation of her fenton in the South. Through her observations she interspersed the ejacniation of Hallelujah! with Along drawn sign and in maudlin areents. With this she closed, repeating it fainter and fainter as She sat down, until it sounded like echoes dying, dying, dying. Elizabeth Comstock commented briefly upon what the colored woman had said, and a prayer Was then offered “at the foot of the throne of grace” by Deborah C. Thomas, who has a strong, clear volee, and wrestled with the God of Jacob most manfully. 'Two or three supplieations follow- ing closed the services, Which bad lasted nearly four ours. BUSINESS OF THE CONFERENOFS. ‘The business was resumed separately in the af- ternoon, at half-past three o'clock, by the two bodies, The examination into the condition of the Chureh was continued, and cheerful reports were received from the subordinate conferences. The sessions were short, because of the length of the morning service: THE REFORMED CHURCH. General Synod in Brooklyn—An Impor- tant Scssion—Proposed Amendments to the Constitution of the Church—The Organization Yesterday Afternoon— Sermon by Dr. Taylor. ‘The General Syned of the Reformed Church in America commenced its annual session yesterday afternoon in the Middle Reformed church, on Har- rison street. The attendance of delegates was quite hurge, but all were not present. There were no representatives from the Southern States pres- ent, a8 the Church does not extend to that section of the country. The Middie and Western States were well represented. Yesterday's session was merely devoted to or- ganization, but to-day and to-morrow the real work of the Synod will commence, and then all the dele- gates (about two hundred in number) will be present. At about three o’clock the Synod was called to order by Key. W. J. R. Taylor, D. D., of Newark, President of the last Synod, who opened the pro- ceedings with a fervent prayer. Rey. W. 11. Ten Eyek, of Astoria, Permanent Clerk, then called the roll of delegates, which consumed considerable time. Dr. TAYLOR then announced that the next busi- ness in order was the election of President, Ad- sessor (Vice President) and two clerks, who were to be elected by a majority of the ballots, The Synod proceeded to ballot for President, Adsessor and two temporary clerks, Rey, M. G. Hanson and Rey. A. N. Gulick being appointed tellers. The vote being taken the tellers announced the result, when the President explained that there was no clection for President and Adsess inasmuch as neither of the candidates had received a majority of the votescast. 1 ules of order provide that if after the first vote there is no election the choice shall be made from the two having the highest number of votes. Dr. Taylor announced that Rev. Drs. A. B. Van Zandt and J. Elmendorf had received the highest number of votes for President and Rev. Drs. Peltz and Elmendorf for Adsesxor, Ki Hanson und Qulick were elected temporary clerks, ELECTION OF A PRESIDENT. As Dr. Elmendorf was received as a candidate for both President and Adsessor, the nod proceeded to ballot for President alone, with the following re- sult:-—Dr. Elmendory, 68; Dr. Van Zandt, 49, Dr, Elmendort declared elect@a. Dr, Elmen- dorfis pastor of the Second church at Albany, and was the delegate of the Reformed Church at Albany to the Presbyterian General Assembly at Richmond last month, ‘The PRESIDENT announced that the election of Adsessor was next in order, and that as Drs, Holmes and Peltz had received the highest number of votes on the first ballot they were the choice for candi- dates, Dr. Holmes withdrew, which made Dr, Van Zandt a candidate in his place, Dr. Van Zandt also withdrew, by permission of the Synod, Rev. Dr. GANsk wanted to know what would be- come of the constitution if this kind of thing were to continue. The constitution expressly provided that the election must be from the two having re- ceived the highest number of votes. ‘The Synod proceeded to ballot tor Adsessor, and Dr. Peltz was elected HE NEW PRESIDENT IN THE CHAIR. Dr. Elmendorf was then welcomed to the chair by the retiring President and returned his warmest thanks for this unexpected honor, While appre: ating it truly, he had sincerely wished that the choice had fullén upon one more competent; but he acknowledged the call of God in their election.

Dr, Taylor, the retiring P NING ent, preached a pow- mon before ge congregation in. the His subject was, “The Building of th Church,” and his text. from Ephesians, ti., 19 ‘The discussion of th ubiect was strictly textual, embracing the foundation, the corner-stone, the materials and the framing of them together, and the great design all growing nto a holy temple of God, He applied the principles of the discourse to the circumstances of the Reformed Church in this centennial year, and referred parti- cularly to the growth of the Church, to her theolog- ical foundation, to the composite character of her present ministry and membership, which had been drawn largely from other de- nominations of — Christians, and tothe practical iustration of Christianity which was thus exhibited. Dr. Taylor closed with a brief reference to the probable future of the Church, THE WORK OF THE SYNOD. This session of the Synod promises to be of more than ordinary interest, Reports of the centennial work of the Church during the past year will be presented and a professor of theology in the New Brunswick seminary appointed. It is also under- stood that the Church constitution is to be revised nd amended, ‘There are thirty-three classes repre- sented in the Synod, each classis sending three ministers and three elders as delegates. Accordin; to the last minutes of the General Synod there were 510 ministers, 467 churches and 63,483 metabers of the Church. AFRICA. Fearful Explosion of a Gunpowder Mag- azine on the Banks of the Old Calabar River—The Shock Equal to That of an Earthquake and with Appalling He- sults—Many Lives Lost-Rum, Gin and Powder in a Fiery Mixtare. By way of Liverpool, England, we have news from the African coast. which brings inteHigence of the occurrence of a most awful explosion of gunpow- der, the shock being attended and followed by alarm- ing and fatal consequences. The details, which were forwarded by the steam- ship Mandingo, read thus :— At midnight on the th of April a fire was dis- covered by some of the watchmen on duty at the powder magazines of the African Company of Mer- chants situated on the left bank of the Old Calabar River, and in close proximity to the native town called Duke = Taon. The = shipping of the various furopean houses —_ being moored in the stream, about half a nile distant from the magazine and factory, an alarm was immediately raised and a number of bouts from the several vessels at anchor im the river proceeded to the scene of the disaster, The fire in the mean- while spread rapidly from the building where it first originated, and in a short time reached thi magazine where the powder was stored, and an plosion of a most fearful character immediately took plac scene Was most appalling, the ground shaking as if disturbed by an eartnquake andthe air for some time being filled with the fumes of the exploded powder, While showers of mud and ashes fell at great distances from the scene of the explosion in the river, Considerable dam- age occurred to the shipping, the vessels which suf- fered most being the Elizabeth, Winifred and smasiing in the windows, skylights nocking ail the glasses and earthenware unately this catastrophe was not unatl tended by loss of life, for the person acting as watchman at the time perished on the explosion taking place, Indeed the number of lives lost was not ascertained when the Mandingo left, but it is feared that the number will be considerable. Thi unfortunate victins of the disaster were endeavor- ing to save their effects when the dames caught the powder magazine, ‘The direct loss to the Company of African Mer- chants was estimated at £9,000, aud it was not known whether the company have the loss covered by insurance. When the explosion took place in the magazine there were fifty-two and a half tons of powder, be- sides a large quantity of rum, gin, &c. Some idea ofthe terrific nature of the affair may be formed, but it can scarcely be described beyond the fact that the scene was awful in the extreme. Many of the houses of the native town, however, which are situated at a considerable elevation from the place where the magazine was built, were but slightly injured. Captain Snart and Dr. Arkens, of the Mandingo, immediately after the explosion took piace proceeded to the scene of the disaster; but he services of the latter gentleman were not re- quired, as, with the exception of the unfortunate Deovle whe Derished, Do other cagualty occurred, AQUATIC. oe Boating at Brown University=The Cla Crews and Their Coming Races. ProvipEncs, June 6, 1872. At present there is but one theme of conversation among the boating men at Brown; ali the interest is centred in one event—the class races, Indeed, so much is said and speculated concerning the chances of each cl: crew that the University crew attract comparatively little attention. Mr. Luther, who as captain has been training the crew tion with the college; yet notwithstanding this and many other misfortunes to which the crew have been subjected, the club hope to be able to send a crew to the summer regatta, ‘The class races are to come off on Saturday, June 8, on the Seekonk River. The course will be one and a half mile and turn. First and second prizes are offered, the first: prize consisting of a silver cup for each of the win- ning crew. ‘The Senior crew, with the exception of the Sopho- more, Will be the heaviest crew in the race, and are considered by some to possess the most’ muscle. ‘The tollowing are the names of the crew:—N.

At any rate it will be a very exciting event. No. 53 The Coming $2,000 Race on the Schuyl- kill—How Scharff is Training and Row- ing—An Exciting Event Anticipate: Pirrspura, May v1, 1872. The sculling race of five miles between William Scharf, of this city, and Thomas Batler, of Boston, which is to be decided on Friday next on the Schnyl- kill River at Philadelphia, is an event looked for- ward to with much interest by the aquatic fraternity here, and at least one hundred persons will accom- pany Scharff to the Quaker City to-morrow evening. The ill suecess of the Pittsburgers in their recent rowing matches has caused a degree of despondency that will certainiy require something very substan- tial in the way of victories to thoroughly destroy. Such unbounded confidence is re- posed in young Scharff as a seuiler that should he sus grief of the easily pictured, ously affected over in a defeat at Philadelphia the rowing men here would not he Not that they would be so si the fact of our munici- sorrow would arise through financial Josses; for it isan assured thing that no oarsman ever left this city to engage in arace that was accompanied by such a dell faith in success. There is but one thing m conn tion with the contest that has a tendency to dampen the ardor of Schari’s partisans, and that is the stipudation in the article of agreement that the men shall row at 143 pounds. Schartvat any time is very spare of flesh, and it is feared unusu- ally severe training will be necessary to drop him to the figure, in the end physicaily pros- trate and er him unit to cope successfully with the hardy and skilful rower of the Hub. However, he is in’ the excellent hands of Hamill, the ex-champion oarsman, who for weeks past has had him in keeping, and so jealous is he of the health and condition of his charge that the veteran purchases and prepares with his own hands the food consumed, and intimated yesterday that it had been two weeks since his man had sipped water. + i's last row on the Mononga- hela previous to his departure for Philadelphia was taken to-day, When an opportunity for observ- ing the man and his movements was presented. He is a lean, wiry stripling, five feet ten inches in height, and is in the twenty-first year of his age. His skin is as brown as a nut; what flesh there is on his bones is as hard that of Coulter, and the blades of his oars are drawn vigorously yet cleanly through the water, while in recovering not an unnec ary movement is made, Look at him in the boathouse and you wouldn't Wager a farthing on him; but his sweeping, rapid stroke and clipping pace’ over the water, perhaps, would exercise some influence with a clear-headed old better, ‘The boat which Seha made haere, and is of Spanish cedar, thirt long, eleven meties wide, and weighs just tw three pounds, and, by the way, a remarkably light craft. To-d will row was feet y the boathonse of the McKee Club, on the south side, was the scene of much bustie and preparation, almost every one of its bers—and is in that respect the est club —arranging matters for their departure to-morrow evening. Quarters have been secured at the house of Mr. Leon, a keen-looking littie gentleman, who “hangs out’ on the banks of the Schuylkill, about half a mile above the Falls strong- bridge. This party do not fancy such public quar- ters for training purposes a8 that po: 1 by those who recently rowed a match race over this course, Scharif at present weighs about one hun- dred and forty-six pounds, and, it may be added, is in good health and confident of winning. The race is expected by the rowing men of this place to prove one of the most interesting and exciting that has ever taken place in this country. Coulter, since hisdefeat by the Bigiins, has given a portion of his attention to his trade, but the most of it is devoted to rowing singly, and it is hardly possible that le might’ be in- duced to row a single oar again. He has been roundly condemned for wilful neglect in training, it leaking out since the race that on that day Coulter got into his boat welghing 178 pounds. The cousequence was disastrous; he was utterly exhausted before half the distance had been gone over, and weakened to such an extent that he was unable to hold up his sidg of the boat; the craft was without a rudder, and Cavitt, being the stronger of the two, pulled ‘the bow of the boat toward the West. Piilladeiphia shore, and in brief time they fonnd themselves out of all reckoning. This ex- plains what at the time was called a mistake on part of the Pittsburgers, Coulter will take part in most of the single scnil regattas of this summer, having already entered his name for that of Buitalo, and itis y likely he will take part in the Wash- ington city regatta. e Biglins, admitting the cleverness of young vitt _a#an oarsman, have made a proposition to have him make one of a four-oared crew they are now getting up. It is not unlikely that Cavitt a valuable man in the four talked of, Since the race at Philadelphia he has gained thirty-six pounds, evidence of all the training having been done by himself.

The Prospect Park Fair Grounds Association made | an offer, a fow day: , to the owner of the cele- brated race horses Longfellow and Harry Bassett for a race over their track, The offer was a pre- mium of $10,000 to the winner of a dash of two miles. and a half, the race to come oif immediately after the Jerome Park races, Mr. Harper, the owner of Longfellow, declined the offer on the ground of pre- yious engavements. Longfellow has to meet Harry Bassett at Long Branch on the 2d of July, and it wil take all the intervening time to get him over his railroad trip from Kentucky and give him the “grand preparation” for the contest with Lexing- ton’s greatest and best son, Harry Bassett. Kingfisher seems to have recovered from his late injuries, and is taking his gallops with the other horses at Jerome Park. We hope he may reach the form he was in before he fell lame. Folus has gone wrong, and will be let up in his training. He will not runat the present meeting at Jerome Park, Several of Mr. M. H. Sanford’s horses have been attacked with pneumonia. Salina is in a very dan- gerous condition. Colonel McDaniel’s chestnut filly by Julius has been turned out of training. Mr. Belmont has been very unfortunate with his horses this spring. Glenelg, Gray Pianct and Wade Hampton have all gone amiss, Anew race track 1s being laid out at Louisville, Ky., and the first meeting will be held in the fall, It will be under the control of a jockey club to be styled the Falls City Association, [From the Sportsman, May 25.} Deatn or “OLD” JOB Marson.—On Monday last, at Beverley, Mr. Job Marson, the oldest trainer in England, and who for very many years was fami- larly and affectionately known as “Old Job,” died within a few days of the completion of his eighty- fifth year. Mr. Marson was a remarkable n, and always bore an irreproachable character. “As a very little boy he entered the training establish- ment ot Mr. Shepherd, th @ well Known trainer and jockey at Malton, and he rode as a “light weight” for that stable until he was about teen, at which age he appeared in the “pigskin,” and brought down the scale at five stone. After that period he became “head lad’ or foreman to Mr. Akroyd, who then occupied Whitewall House, subsequently for so many years the residence of Mr. John Scott, few years later he commenced the business of a trainer on_ his own account at Sutton Cottage, in the vicinity of Malton, and from that place he removed to Belle Vue, a residence which be occupied for many years, and which is separated bat by a small fleld from Whitewal! House, thus being next door neighbor of Mr. John Scott for along time. Here, on Langton wold, he trained for the Marquises of Queensberry and Blanford, the Hon. G.

NeW ORLEANS, June 9, 1912, There is something laughably absurd in the present political situation of Louisiana, While the people of other States, recognizing the single great national issue presented, are consolidating their forces beneath the rival banners, our people are daily growing more and more distracted and demoralized, Instead of two great partios we have no less than itive, ail bitterly at war with one another, Among those who may be classed as sup- porters of Greeley and Brown we have the old democrats, who still cling to their old leaders and | Bourbon tdeas; reformers, originally democrats, who, sickened with a long series of disas- ters and defeats, have from time to time sloughed off and have now grown into a power of soma moment, Lastly we have the liberal republicans under Warmoth, against whom the door of compromise has so far beeu per- sistently closed, THE RADICALS, In the radical ranks simihar dis: the one hand the Custom House clique, under Pack- ard and Casey, are striving to obtain control of State polities, and on the other, Pinchback, with a powerful nexro constituency and all the present sions exist.
