OFF FOR MADRID. Governor Zabalza sailed for Spain yesterday, notwithstanding reports in official circles that he would not go. YACHTING. Cruise of the New York Yacht Club—The Depart- ure for Martha’s Vineyard Deferred Until Tuesday—Arrangements for a Swoepstakes Race To-Morrow. Newrorr, August 17, 1872, There appears to be some objection to the Colum- bia receiving the Commodore’s Cup, which was sailed for yesterday, as Mr. Homans, of the yacht Foam, has forwarded a protest, which the Regatta Committee, Messrs. S. L. Haight, W. B, Bend and W. Kiebs, have now under consideration. The in- tent of the protest is based on the Columbia having only made a half tack when rounding the stakeboat Julia, which, Mr. Homans says, is contrary to the sailing regulations, and also because the Columbia on the port tack did not give way to the Foam when the latter was on the starooard tack. This matter is now being investigated by the Regatta Committee, but will probably not amount to any- thing. There was a strong southerly breeze this morn- ing, and about ten o'clock the flagship signalled the fleet to prepare to get under weigh for the Vine- yard; but as the Commodore found that many were anxious to remain at Newport over Sunday he sig- nalied for all captains to repair on board. On taking the vote it was found that the Fva was the only yacht anxious to start, so it was decided not to leave before Tuesday. Mr. L, Lorillard, of the Wanderer, then proposed to sail the schooner yacht Resolute a match around Block Island and return, but Mr. A. S, Hatch de- clined sailing. A sweepstake race of twenty-five each was then arranged to be sailed on Monday, over the regular course to Block Island and return. About ten, in- cluding the fastest yachts in the fleet, entered. The sloop yacht Vision arrived this afternoon from the westward. The schooner Wanderer went ont for a sail about noon, with Mr, Lorillard and Mr. Babcock on board. ae fleet will leave on Tuesday for Martha's Vine- y Yachting Notes.

The Princess Louise has given him an order for a picture and the Queen also has given him a commission for one of his most important works. He spent an hour and a half at Osborne House and was invited to stay to lunch, but con- cluded it was not best to take all effered favors. The Princess Louise was delighted with the pic- tures and sketches, and took her mother into her room to see them in the afternoon, when the Queen expressed herself delighted with them, and, on the strength of it, gave the order referred to, The Marquis of Lorne called at the hotel (Isle of Wight) next morning and stayed some time. When he arrived William (Bradford) was in the coffee room talking with Mr. Hoppin, President of the Union League Club, a warm advocate of ’s, and Mr. Hoppin said in- credulously, on being told of the order:—“You need it in black and white to make Americans be- lieve it.” Just then a servant walked up to Wil- liam and said:—“His Lordship the Marquis of Lorne awaits you 10 your parlor.” Mr, Hoppin turned to Bradford and said:—‘That is black and white enough.” * * * * * e William (Bradford) has just returned from breakfasting with the Duke and Duchess of Argyli—a ‘breakfast given to Stanley. General Schenck and others were present. William rode down with Stanley, who stays at this hotel (the Langham), and now has gone with ‘him and the Duke and Duchess of Argyll to see his pictures at McLean's. At four o'clock we are going to Mr. Stanley's room to see some curiosities he has brought from Africa. The Duke and Duchess Of Argyll will be there also. It may be mentioned that Mr. Bradford's com- mission from the Queen is the first royal favor of the kind granted to an American artist since the days of Benjamin West, who was himself more a sort of half-naturalized Englishman than a legiti- mate citizen of the United States. THE NATIONAL GAME. CLEVBLAND, Ohio, August4r, 1872. A game of base ball was played to-lay between the ‘ton and Forest City clubs, which resulted in @ score of 18 to 7 In favor of the Kastan Club, AMUSEMENTS. Mr. Brougham’s “Joan of Arc.” of the features of the coming dramatic season ‘Will be the production of ‘Joan of Arc,” anew trage- dy by Mr. John Brougham, The same subject has been already illustrated by tne genius of several great playwrights, but Mr. Brougham’s conception of the story gives it an entirely new meaning and interest- Instead of Joan the commissioned instru- ment of Heaven to save her country, she becomes in his hands, though without losing the respect and sympathy of the audience, the dupe of a pious traud. A friar of her village, realizing the nobie- ness and grandeur of her character and conscious Of the necessity of adopting some desperately novel Scheme to redeem France from utter subjugation, devises a series of supernatural manifestations, near a flourishing elm (haunted, according to tra- dition, by fairies and other unearthly beings), which convince Joan that her missiom in life ts to lead the French armies to victory. As the friar is a director of one of those companies of miracle players (composed chiefly of acolytes in the church) which were so common in mediwval times, there is in this variation from the chronicle of history no inherent dnprabeniity, Joan, having accepted the sup- posed call of Heaven, sets out for the Court in com- pany with the friar, persuades the King of the genuineness of her mission, and, taking command of the army, lives through @ year of unbroken military success, Returning to Court she is driven into exile by the amorous persecution of the mon- arch whose crown she has saved, and flying to her native village, where she finds the fairy elm blasted by lightning, is captured by the English. Then follows her trial as a witch, and in this hour of extremest heed the one belief that has hitherto sustained her jortitude is suddenly shattered by the confession of the friar that he cheated her eyes and ears with false visions and voices, and that her fondly cherish- ed faith in the divinity of her mission is but an empty delusion. ‘This cruel blow is more than she can bear, and heartbroken and utterly hopeless, her mind {alls into ruins. There is yet another scene— a painful but a strikingly pathetic one—in which Joan, still delirious, while being taken to the stake, lives over in in fancy her former triumphs. The clankil of the chain, however, as she is being fastened to the stake, restores her reason, but pily only fora moment. She has scarcely tim realize her position when the aching, en t gives a iast weary throb, and the executioners are cheated of their victim. This is but the barest outline of the play, but it is enough to show that it is based upon a daringly novel view of this worn and almost hackneyed sub- ject. The incidents are arranged with the skill of a veteran playwright, and the interest gradually rises until in the closing scenes the mind of the reader or spectator is utterly overcome with pity and sympathetic sorrow. Of the literary workmanship of the piece it would be hard to Speak too highly. The rhetoric is always graceful and smooth, and, though sometimes florid, is never turgid. Some of tii re scenes, with which the gloom of the piece is occastonally relieved, are written in Mr. Brougham’s happiest vein of scholarly humor. It has not yet been decided where ‘Joan of Arc” is to be first produced, but Miss Helen Temple, a Promising young actress, has been chosen to take the chief part, aud will doubtiess do it iull justice. The Fifth Avenue Theatre. Mr. Augustin Daly will inaugurate a fourth cam- paign at this popular theatre on the 3d of September, and, from the announcements he now makes; there is every reason to believe that the coming season will be cven more brilliant and successful than its predecessors, Aion wee A new piece, entitled “Diamonds,” by Mr. Bron- son C, Howard, the author of “Saratoga,” will be first placed on the bill, and will, doubticas, have a long run, Among other novelties to follow it are anew society drama, by Dr. Mosenthal, the author of “Deborah,” depicting fashionable life in Berlin; an original comedy, illustrating the man- ners and character of American frontiersmen and of the New York haut monde, by Mr. Bret Harte (his first attempt as a playwright), and a new piece, by M. Victorien Sardou; specially written to fit the members of Mr. Daly’s comedy, and purchased, as itis said, at the extravagant rate of $1,000 a week. This répertoire will, probably, mére than Ml up the season, in view of the long runs which have hitherto marked the careerof the present manage- ment, and which have been the legitimate result of careful and finished production. The company, while it retains the principal among the old favorites, has been strongly rein- forced by new talent, and now presents the follow- ing muster of brilliant and accomplished artists :— Mr. Charies Fisher, Mr. George Clarke, Mr. James Lewis, Mr. W.

Late in the season Mrs. Caroline Abbott will make her début. It should algo be stated that the theatre, during the three months that its doors have been closed to the public, has been greet improved and elabo- rately redecorated. An entirely new stage has been laid down; a novel system of footlights has been introduced; the ceiling has been adorned with an original subject, painted in fresco, entijled “The Crowning of Comedy ;"’ the old orchestra seats have been replaced by chairs, enamelled in blue and bronze; new carpets have been furnished all over the house, and the walls are now relieved by hangings of crimson satin. During the season Mr. Harvey B. Dodworth will have direction of the music. Mr. John Moore is to be stage manager and Mr. Joseph E. Tooker business manager, while the box office will be under the charge of Mr. James E. Morrissey. MUSIC AND THE DRAMA. At Home.

No New Cases and No Additional Deaths Among Her Crew. Arrival of Two More Fever Ships. Six Vessels and About Thirty Victims of the Pestilence Now in Port, Pilot Commissioner Blunt on the Situation. In all probability that very excitable portion of the population of this great city which has been in @ quandary whether to fly to the prairies or to re- main here and die of that yellow fever epidemic which they believed to be so awfully imminent will fan themselves gracefully down into a state of per- petual calm when they learn that the great Spanish frigate Numancia, with its few cases of yellow fever on board, is twenty miles away from their breakfast tables. Ata quarter to five o'clock last evening the ram got under way and proceeded quietly down the bay from the Narrows to the Southwest Spit, where she now lies at anchor, About one o'clock yesterday afternoon the tugs N. B, Starbuck, Captain Jacob Brandow, and the W. F. Walcott, Captain Monks, stopped at the Quaran- tine Station, Staten island. On the former vessel was Pilot Gillespie, who brought the Numancia into Port, and on the latter Pilot John L. Roff and his brother, Peter W. Roff, Jr., also a pilot. The pilots called upon Health Officer Vanderpoel, and Pilot Gillespie stated that he was prepared to pilot the Numancia to an anchorage in the Lower Bay. Pilot John Roff, however, exhibited an order signed by Pilot Commissioner Blunt, direct- ing him to take. the vessel down and anchor her off the Southwest Spit, and of course Pilot Gillespie at once gave way to Roff, who at once went on board the Numancia from the Walcott aud informed her commander that he would be prepared to navigate the ship down by half-past three or four o'clock. Not deeming it either prudent or necessary that he should remain for an hour or two on board an in- fected vessel, Roff returned to the landing, with his tug, and awaitec the hour of departure. he “THE NUMANCIA'S FIRES had been “banked” on Friday night, and steam, therefore, was soon gotten up for the tugs. ae before four o'clock the two tug- boats proceeded to the Numancia’s anchorage, Gil- lespie remaining ashore, and the great frigate at ouce commenced to haul in the slack of her cables. As soon as»she was short hauled the tugs, which had already fastened their hawsers to the frigate, began to give her headway, so that she might not drop back with the tide, and as her anchor leit the bottom the ram got her engines to work, and at 4:45 P. M. was fairly on her course, steaming slowly . and steadily through the Narrows. The tugs Kept up a good pull on her bow, so as to. steady her, and she moved as ma- jestically as an iceberg. At a quarter past five she passed the forts, Wadsworth, Tompkins and Lafayette, and at the same time about the narrow- est part of the channel, the Plymouth Rock, looking like a pleasure palace on a rampage, swept swiltly past her on her way down to Long Branch. It was marked contrast to see these Leviathan ships so close together and to feel that one was a great engine of war, with a cloud of pestilence hoverin; over her, and the other a craft built for luxury an ease and freighted with hundreds of pave people speeding on to scenes of enjoyment, Nothing occurred to vary the monotony of the voyage down, and at seven o'clock the Numancia was hove to oi the Southwest Spit. THR TUGS COMMENCED SOUNDING at once, and found plenty of room, with a depth varying from thirt Wo to thirty-seven feet. About twenty-five minutes past seven the Numancia let go her anchor at a selected spot about three quar- ters Of a mile west-southwest of the Eat buoy, and New York was eased of a bugbear which has been worrying timid souls all the week. The Numancia is, therefore, now about twenty-one miles from New York, riding safely at anchor with sixty fathoms of cable out and with abundance of swinging room, in thirty-six and a half feet of water. Her actual draught is thirty-one Span- ish feet, or about twenty-eight feet English Measurement. the ay throug! ing her soundings were taken for over half a mile all around her, and nothing shallower than thirty- two feet was found. She is about a third of a mile from the regular ship channel, and inward or out- ward bound vessels need not make nearer approach to her in passing than at that distance. The tugs and pilots returned to the Nols actly half-past nine o’clock last night, having performed their work in the most satisfactory manner, In order to show the HISTORY OF THE SINGULAR DIFFICULTY which has surrounded the Numancia’s visit to this Lentil the following correspondence will be of in- terest :— The tugs sounded at intervals all down, and the shoalest water. they passed was five and a half fathoms.

Ilefta note requesting him to call on you and obtain a pilot who should take tho vessel to the Southwest Spit if In your judgment such anchorage could be made with safety to the vessel. If my request to the Consul i not complied with in the next six hours I desire you to take measures to have such removal made. The pilot taking, the vessel down will remain on the, bridge until the ship is anchored, when he may leave at once by smail boat, which may’ accompany the vessel. Very respectfully, L, OAKBEY VANDERPOEL, Health Officer. The following certificate was furnished by the commander of the frigate to Pilot Gillespie :— On Boanp Tron-Cuap Frigate Numancta. I, Don Eduardo Kovira y Bellon, captain of the navy of the first class, and commandant of His Majesty's iron-clad frigate Numancia, do hereby certity that the pilot, Mr. |gated this ship into port in a highly in- for @ distance ot more than seventy miles ‘k, and from the time of his taking charge safe anchorage of the frigate inthe strait entrance, called the “Narrows,” at the portot New York, he has acted to my entire satisfaction. EDUARDO ROVIRA, Port or New York, August 16, 1872, Dr. Vanderpoe! expressed the utmost satisfac- tion when the frigate had at last got under way for her new quarters, and was pleased that the anxie- ties of the people were at last allayed in reference to her presence on our waters. Dr. Mosher, Deputy Health Officer, boarded the Numancia a short time before her departure and found no new cases of fever developed, and reports the convalescents as doing well without exception. The patients from the Numancia at the West Bank Hospital are also prospering. ver favorabl and no additional deaths had occurred, The frigate will be visited every day by the port Health authorities while she lies at the spot, and will be abundantly supplied with fresh water, provisions and vegetables. The Spanish Consul called upon Dr. Vanderpoel yesterday after- noon and left with him some papers and packages for the ship’s officers, which were duly forwarded, The following statement of Mr. Biunt, made toa HERALD reporter yeste! afternoon, shows that the Board of Pilot Commissioners had surrendered to his decision:— STATEMENT OF MR, BLUNT. I was sick yester ) and unable to at- tend the meeting Board. My old friend, Admiral Stringham, formerly of the Ohio, whom [ have known for fifty years, coincides entirely with me that there isfitting anchorage for the Numan- clain the Lower , and sent me word to that effect yesterday. I will now tell you the whole story, 60 that you can judge its merits. On Thurs- day the Healtt Omicer, Dr. Vanderpoel, came to see me, unnecessarily excited, as 1 thought, about my communication to the press of this city respecting the capacity of the harbor. 1 took particular pains to say to the Doctor that I had heard good reports from all the ptlots as to his general disposition and his desire to do his di 1 then called in tne pilot, Gillespie, before us, who, VIOLATING QUARANTINE ORDINANCES, had brought the Numancia up to the Narrows, and told that he had violated the Quarantine rules of the port. I then said that I should send her down the at Dr. Vanderpoel’s request. The Doctor asked my opinion about the lower anchor- age, andI mentioned as a proper place between Coney Island and the Lower Quarantine Hospital. He said he did not like that, as. it was im the track = of the excursion steamboats to Coney [sland (which it isn’t; but let that pass). I then said, “Very well, anchor her off the Sonthwest Spit.’ Gillespie, who ‘was then present, was sulky aud did not want to take her back. He has only had a fall branch for two years. By that I mean after a man has safely piloted, without complaint or accident, for three ears in fourteen, sixteen and eighteen feet water ¢ is entitied to what we call a full brauch, THE SPANISH CONSUL.

To-day to the Health Officer at one o'clock, of which following is a transcript :— “ Pilot Jouw Rorr—Take chi of the Numancia and auchor hor off the Southweet Spit G, W. BLUNT." 0O-OPERATING WITH THE HEALTH OFFICER, All my idea in this matter has been that I had no right to interfere with the Health Omicer, but that at the same time I was bound to stand up for the capacity of the port of New York to receive any veasels that might come, and, what is more, all the ilots, as I have heard, approve my action. Al- ugh I surveyed the harbor half a century I feel DO DATORIAe: vanity at being an old authority, but I maintain that the experience that I have had entities my opinion to a-certain amount of weight. TWO MORR FEVER SHIPS, Yesterday afternoon two additional vessels having yellow fever on board arrived at the Lower Bay. making @ total of six vessels thus infected now The first was the bark Pelayo, from Havana, Her captain (Juan Rosas) and the captain’s servant (Sal- vador Rosas) were both suffering from fever and were removed by the Quarantine ambulance boat, in charge of Dr. Thompson, to the West Bank. The other vessel was the brig Balear, from San Blas, Central America. Her second mate (Thomas Albers) and a seaman Pers Diercks) were both down with fever and were also removed to the hospital. These make a total of twenty-cight fever cases in hospital and aboard ships now in. the port, composed, of course, of patients and cenvalescents. The deaths in port have been three, and the deaths on the voyage or at sea (from three vessels) nine. The ‘Health oMolals expect that quite a number of additional infected vessels will come in, thia being the season for the epidemic, How the Alarmists Affect Trade. To THe Epiror OF THE HERALD:— Within the last two days 1 have received letters from @ number of Western merghants in Pitts- burg, Cincinnati and St, Louls inquiring whether it is safe tocome here on account of the yellow fever. They inform me that Boston and Phila- delphia wholesalers have telegraphed that it is dangerous to come to New York. The sensational Teports in the city papers are outrageous, There has not been an original case of fever in the port. This Dr. Vanderpool will certify to.

The Indian tmbroglio is decidedly critical AR the savages in the southern part of the territory appear to exhibit hostility, and are committing all sorts of depredations, Last night five Indians entered a settiement at Mount Pleasant and tomahawked a telegraph operator as he was leav- ing his office. His skull was fractured by five blows, from which he will probably die. The citizens are greatly alarmed, and desire Wells, the commander of the Nauvoo Legion, to order out the militia. Governor Woods, General Ord and General Mor- row feel confident that they have force enough te quell the disturbance, Three companies of the Thir- teenth infantry, under Captain Hough, left here this morning, also Major Gordon's company of the Second cavalry, for San Pete. Cavalry drawn from the line of the Union prairie are arriving and being sent forward at once. General Morrow goes to have a conference with the Indians to-night in advance of his force. Gene- ral Ord goes to Beaver on Monday. ‘There 1s a large force of cavalry in the depart- ment now under orders, ready to take the field if necessity requires. Feara are entertained for the safety of outlying settlements and mining camps in the south should a general war break out.

Revised Custom House Regulations. ‘There have been prepared, under the direction of Mr. Elliot, acting Chief of the Bureau of Statistica, supplements 1,2 and 3 to part 9 of the Revised’ Customs Regulations of the United States, forming a twenty-four page pamphiet, coples of which have been distributed to the Collectors of Customs for their guidance in making returns on the subject of foreign commerce, shipping, &c., to the bureau above named. Supplement No, 1 contains a full list of com- modities, alphabetically classified, to be used in all statements of foreign merchandise (except that relating to home consumption and tmposts), the unit in which the quantity of each article is to be expressed being indicated opposite to its place im the list in another vertical column. Supplement No. 2 contains a revised list of foreign countries, indicating the order to be observed in making out all statements of commerce by countries. Supplement No. 3 gives a similar Itst, to be used in making out the statements of entries and clearances of vessels engaged in the trade with the United States.
