Curtis, of the Athletics. ‘The first annual regatta of the Harlem Rowing Association of New York was celebrated yesterday “and proved tO be one of the most successful aquatic events ever witnessed in New York waters. The arrangements of the committee were excellent an every respect, affording @ clear course for the boats and a good view for the spectators. Of course there were some passenger steamers ply- ing up and down the course, but they did wot imterfere with the races, as the starter timed the different events so as to avoid the different trips made by the steamers.

The club had two barges, one the Anna, which Was assigned to the ladies and their cava- Jiers, and the Rhinebeck, where the male sex congregated and amused themselves by specu- Jating on the result of the different events onthe programme. The river was covered with all ana every description of rowing boats, from ‘the insignificant little punt to the stately club barge. The Nautilus, Gramercy, Nassau, Daunt- Jess and Sappho clubs were all represented, and Humberless young aspirants to aquatic honors were flying about skimming the water in their light shells, The regatta was sailed under the fol- Jowing rules of the Harlem Regatta :— The races, open to members of the Association only, to be rowed in straight mile heats, divided iu three clases, as fo — Four oared shell race, for the Grand Challenge Cup, ine $50; four nresentacion medals and the champion rs of the Association. ‘air oured shell race, tor the Ladies’ Challenge Plate, tation medals, hell race for the Diamond Challenge Sculls, id presentation medal, 5 of the clubs comprising d ‘ow at this regatta. a. inem- red for at least two months preceding the re .

About three P. M. the starter, Mr. O'Neil, began (to get the four-oared crews in position. There were on'y three boats, representing the New York Athietic, the Nassau and the Harlem rowing clubs. Phere was considerable disappointment at the absence of the Gramercy crew, a they declined pulling in the race, subject to @& proteat. It appears that some objections bad been made to Mr. Gannon, one ef the Gramercy trew, on the greunds that he had received money for bas services as trainer to the New York Rowing Club, and the objections were sustained by the Poumittee.

At ‘word “Go!” the Nassaus were the first to tch water, and shot half a boat’s length ahead on the start, with the Athletic and close behind. It was a hot race from start to finish, each crew laying down to their work with a will.

As the crews pailed quickly back from the dam they were loudly cheered by the spectators from the barges, and the ladies futtered their dainty Ittue mouchoirs at the knights of the oar, who had ac- complished their devoir so gallantly. After a lapse of about ten or fliteen minutes Mr. O'Neil again got to work getting she starters in the FIRST TRIAL HEAT for the Diamond Challenge Sculis into line, The three that were drawn te im the first heat were Frank Ellison, David Roach and William E, McCredy. Ellison, of the New York Rowing Club, was attired in bine; Roach, ofthe Nautilus, wore white shirt and cap and blue drawers; and McCredy, of the Athletics, appeared im white shirt and red pantaloons and cap. They made a good start, with Roacit in thecentre, Eluson on the New York and MoCredy on the Westchester shore. All three kept well to- gether for the first couple of hundred yards, but gradually the steady stroke of the Nautilus feather weight began to tell and Roach quietly slippea ahead, wisely taking thejcentre of the river, in order to gain the full strength of the tide. Ellison lost a little by a ig too near shore and having to pul PBR but he made a good race with McCredy, ‘assing the Judge's steamer Roach led 7 two lengths, pulling easy within himself, und followed by Ellison and McCredy, The latter, however, fouled a row boat that was holding onto the stern of one of the barges, and lost his chance of the heat, wich was eventually won by Roach, beating Ellison by two lengths. The following is a summary of the race :— SECOND "RACB—FOR THE DIAMOND CHALLENGE SCULLS—PIRST TRIAL HEAT. David Roach, Nautilus Club...,...... Frank Kilisoh, New York Rowing ub... William E. McCredy, New York Athletic C: Mme, 6 min. 7 sec. During the intervals between the heats the barges Of the different clubs pulled about, and, spirting past the barges, showed themselves’ off to advantage before the fair sex. The new barge of the Nautitus Club was much admired, and appeared tw be a very fast boat. About four P.M. Mr. O'Neil raised his white flag and brought up the contestants for the SECOND TRIAL HEAT. ‘This was.one of the most interesting heats in the race, as three good men—Curtis, Losee und Myers— were pitted against one another, Eben Losce, the pride of the Atalantas, was attired in red shirt and cap, and white pants; William B. Curtis, of tne Athletics, the Chicago pet, wore u white shirt and red pants and cap, and Charles Myers, of the Nassaus, appeared in white shirt and blue pantsand cap. Myers had the New York shore, Cartis was in the centre and ‘Losee was on the Westchester position, There was a good deal of betting on this heat, and tha sports rather came to grief, as they fancied Losee to be invincible. Mr. O'Neil got tiem away cleverly together, and for a moment it was hard to say who would take the lead, but presently CURTIS SPURTED ahead and got 8 lead of hal! a length, which he soon increased; and Losee, not liking the Weat- chester shore, cut across Curtis’ wake to join Myers, who was pulling along the New York side, The Chicago representative in the meanwhile was crawling steadily ahead, | with Myers about a length astern, pulling steadily and well. Losee was never once in the Tace, as Myers had him beat from the start. Myers struck @ bank about four hundred yards from the start, an accident that gave Curtis a little advantage. After passing the judges’ steamer ers spurted and went for Curtis, but having got ‘a little too near the New York shore had to pull out to clear some small boats, letting Curtis win easily by about three lengths. Myers was second and Losee third, Tue following is a summary of the race:— THIRD RACK—SECOND TRIAL HEAT. W. B. Curtis, New York Athletic Club .. -1 Charles M. Nassau Club....... Fy Eben Losée, Atalanta Club. 78 Time, 6m. 7458." The defeat of the invincible Losee served an a ‘topic of conversation among the boating men on board the judges’ steamer between the heats, and | many expressed their opinion that he would have | a great deal better without a siiding seat. ir. O'Neil, however, did not let the sport stop, and called up the competitors in the THIRD TRIAL HEAT. This was the last heat of the first set and brought out only two contestants, Messrs. F. R. Keator and | Keator, of the Harlem Rowing | George M, Young. Club, had the New York side, and Young, of the Atalanta, took the Westchester shore. Keator wore blue shirt, red cap and gray pants, and Young appeared in red shirt and cap and white pants. At the word “Go” Keator jumped away with al ad, ulling a long, easy #troke that appeared to be tell- ing well. Young pulled rather wildly, and event- ually crossed Keator’s wake, and took the New York side of the river. Keator pulled very quietly, as he had the race in bis own hands, and kept a tew lengths ahead watching, the wil efforts of his antagonist to close the gap between them. Keator finally won by four or five iengths, The foHowing is a summary of the heat:— FOURTH RACE—THIRD TRIAL HEAT. TR Restor, Harlem Rowing Club George M. Young, Atalanta Club ‘Vime—im. 12%. Now that the three heats for the diamond sculls were decided, be ip became brisk upon the result Of the final hi nd each of the winners, Curtis, Roach and Ki » had their respective favorites. The committee, however, in order to fd the single scull champions time to recuperate for their final race, sandwiched in the race for the PAIR OAR CHALLENGE CUP, for which the starter immedtat proceeded to get the contestants in line. ‘e were repre- sentatives irom the New York Athletic, Nassau and Harlem Rowing Clubs. The Harlem boys wore blue siirte, red caps and gray pants; the Nassaus wore white shirts and blue pants and caps, and the Athletics were attired in white’ shirts with red pants and caps. Mr. O'Neill finally got them in line, with the Hariems on the Westchester shore, the Nas- saus in Lhe centre and the Athletics onthe New York side of the river. At the word “go” the Nas- saus were the first to catch water, and, shooting jorward, took the lead, pressed pretty closely by both the other crews. For the first few hundred yards there was not much difference be- | tween any one ofthe three boats, but finally the steady stroke of the Nassaus began to teil, and | } their shell slowly forged ahead. The Athletics were | doing Well along the New York shore and the Har- lem were hanging close alongside, fighting for every inch, Passing the judges’ stand THR NASSAU CREW The Athletics finall; spurted, and, passing the Harlem boys. made a bril- lant effort to catch the Nassaus, but the latter were too fit to quit on the last quarter and won the Ladies’ Challenge Cup in handsome style, beating the Athletics by about two or three lengths.

Curtis, however, crept gradually away, widening the gap between bim and Keator, whe was also dropping the favorite, Rouch, Passing the stand Curtis led by about two lengths, followed by Keator, who was pullin | ng for & comparatively green oarsman, and ouch brought up the rear, looking as if he found the company too good for him. Keator finally made # spurt and endeavored to lap Curtis, but the champion lifter put on a litte extra steam, shot away, massing the post {he winner of the Diamond Challenge Sculls for 1873. Keator was about foar lengths behind, with Roach, badly pumped, bringing the rear. The judg iteamer, now that the last race was decided, steamed over and teok the barges in tow, eventually landing the guests at Mott'Haven, from Where they took the cara to New York. GYMNASTICS TO BE ENOOURAGED. It is proposed to hold an athletic tournament at the Academy of Muste, in October next, for tne pur- pose of encouraging athletic sports and gymnas- tics in this city. Valuable prizes will be oifered, and the co-operation of all the amateurs of the country is confidently expected. It is hoped to organize an Association, which sball have for its object the encouragement of al! athletic exercises, tending to a high order of physieai culture, J.P.

Indignant Protest Against the Oonviction of Susan B. Anthony—The Flag “Union Down”—All Our Lid erties Threatened. ~ An indignation meeting, under the auspices of the Woman’s Suffrage Society, was held last even- ing at De Garmo’s Hall, Fifth avenue and Four- teenth strect, to protest agaist the law and the administration of the law by which Susan B, An- thony was recently convicted of illegally voting at the last election, There were about two hundred per- sons, male and female, present, and the assemblage was very orderly and very respectable. On the wall immediately over the rostrum was an Amert- can flag, Union down and draped in mourning, the ensign of distress being fanked on the right by the inscriptton :— ONCE COLLE NE TEDRNTODEDD DE DOCIOO LONE DO OEOE ETE Shall One sient ts A Abolish Trial by rT acbh abe dobeee ebebbeepedtictobeenceetoon —and on the left by the words, also inscribed in black letters, on a white medallion :— Qereccerenenene ne ne nere sence rene sees tt oere ne noe % “Respectiul Consideration” for a “Loyal Woman’s” Vote—$100 Fine. OOTODOIOLE LOL EIEOODE BEDE ODDI DEDEDE EE HE OO. Two national flags, with mourning insignia, were also displayed from the gallery, On the plat- form, in neat Summery attire, were the following ladies, all prominently identified with the women’s suffrage movement:—Mra, Clemence 8. Lozier, rresident; Mrs. Lillie Devereux Blake, Mrs. Han- nah M. Shepherd, Mra, A. B. Whitney, Miss McAdams, Mrs. Rachel, Mr. and Mrs. Underhill, of the Society of Friends, and Professor J. K. H. Wil- cox. The meeting was called to order by Mrs. Lozier, who then proceeded in 8 somewhat rapid but very earnest manner to read trom manuscript an ad- dress, in which she began by citing the stand taken in ante-revolutionary times by James Otis on the question of universality of suffrage. She stated that the women of Marsacnusetts in 1770 organized and protested against taxation without representa- tion. Tt was really the agitation which they inau- gurated which led to the famous BOSTON TEA PARTY, Good government can only be established and maintained with the consent of the governed, She then cited extracts from the writings and speeches of Madison and other statesmen in sup- port of her proposition, She claimed that the sue frage was the only means by which the condition of woman could be bettered, It was conceded that women were not compensated fairly for their labor, and that as a consequence of this they were also subjected to suffering poverty and shame. According to the returns of the Midnight Mission for Fallen Women, there are now about seven thousand eight hundred and fifty ruined women who walk the streets of New York in pursuit of their occupation of shame, and this fact was directly traceable to the grinding cruelty and injustice of the stronger sex. The average of their periods of continuance in this life was four years, and from the records of the Society it appeared that they were almost all driven to.it by poor pay. It was to remedy this state of aflairs that women needed the ballot, and they would then assume a strength and importance in the community which they had never yet exer- cised, and which would secure to them justice in all the relations of life. Mrs. BLAKE then read the following resolutions :— Whereas an honest diversity of opinion exists as to the right of women to vote under the constitution and the w, and whereas Susan B. Anthony, a well known citizen of this State, has been arrested and tried for exer- which right she was advised possessed, and has been declared guilty of @ crime and fined by'a Judge who usurped the tunctions of the jury; therefore Resolved, That if the law really makes it a crime for @ Woman to do what is esteemed a duty for.a man, and for- Dids a citizen to exercise the elective iranchise simply on the ground of sex, Miss Anthony broke a law that de- served tc be broken—(appiause)—and we demand the Fepeal of the law. Resolved, That in acase where the violation of law ‘as pure Hnical, and where the equities were plainly nthe side dant, the proper ¢ authorities 10 have entered a wille provequi case of Miss Anthony, as Well ax in the cases of the four- teen other w ho voted with her, and thatthe course actually pursued towards her was less ota prose- cution than i persecution. Resolved, That Judge Hunt, by ordering the jury in the ‘ot Miss Anthony to find’a verdict of guilty—-not ac ding ences, but according to his dicta- on. ‘ogated the sacred and time-honored right of trial by jury and struck a blow at the liberties of every man and woman in the country. Resolved, That the Hon. Henry K. Selden In his able detence of his client, and hus noble vindication of the right of trial by jury, is entitled to the gratitude of every friend of popular and personal freedom. Resolved, That the prosecution, with marked unfarr- ness and Unusual vigor, of a citizen tor ihe so-called wi crime ot adininistration already under materi: tions to her for her services during the canvass pi x that very election, made a mockery of the “respectful considera- tion” oftered tor her claims by the republican party in the Philadelphia plattorm. Mrs. BLAKE then briefly reviewed the proceed- ings in the trial of Susan B. Antuony, and strongly condemned the Court, District Attorney and jury. She maintained that the action of Judge Hunt was subversive of the dearest rights guaranteed under the constitution, Was there a man on that craven jury who, when restrained in the exercise of hig right to render a verdict according to his conscience, had the courage to stand in his place and record his protesty Notone! And was there aman on that jury who conid compare with the prisoner at the bar in intelligence, liberality and intellect? (A voice, “Not one.) And again, was there a man in all court room who could hold before the world the spetiess reputation, the unsullied virtue and purity of char- acter of Susan B, Anthony? (This was @ “poser,” and ail the men in the audience biushed and hung their heads. Kcho alone answered, “Ain't any.”) At the conclusion of Mra, Blake’s address Mrs. MARIE RACHEL read in German and then in English the following letter trom the German Woman’s Suffrage Society addressed “To our noble inend, Susan B. Anthony”? :— The German Woman's Suffrage Association of New York has been deeply int to vour arraigninent before a legal tribunal, as we the progress # You have had the Warmest sympathy of ail its bers during the time “you so Ny endeay- ored to vindicate and establish our rights as citizens of this Repubtic.

Protessor WILCOX then made a brief address, de- Mmanding the impeachment of Judge Hunt. The resolutions were unanimously adopted and the meeting adjourned. in an INVESTIGATING A PARK OFFICIAL. eh eee General Foreman Manning Charged with Using the Park Laborers on Pri- vate Jobs—His Explanation Before the Commission—How ‘the Comptrolier “Went For” Ten Poor Laborers. Park Commissioner Wales was yesterday en- gaged in investigating charges recently preferred against General Foreman Manning, of the Park Department, by Foremen Hodges and Delahunt. The complainants originally made their charges at the Comptroller's office, and it was only indirectly that the Park Commissioners came to the knowledge of the particulars of the case, As Hodges and Delahant allege, General Foreman Manning used some ten of the laborers in the Park in the performance of work done by him for his own private emolument, and which was not under control of the Purk Com- mission, The two foremen specified that they had seen the men at work on this private contract, and they gave the names of the laborers wno had worked for Manning.

He admitted that the ten laborers Were at work in taking ruck from Fifty-ninth strect to Manhattan square, and the rock taken from Fifty-ninth street was lis property; but two things | alao were true, viz. :—That the Park Commissione | were always giad to purchase rock for filling pur. poses ut lowest price, and that when tney | got rock for nothing, as they en did get it, they always sent some of the park laborers to jJoad jt at the quarry and nnioad it at the place being filled, The rock in this par- | ( Mower \Rasauce Was gwoed by him and he gave it ) ; from whom the information was obtained. to the Park Commission, without chi for the filling of Manhattan square, where John Smith had @ contract, and in pu the men to this rock there was not! ed by than would be gained by any citizen who might give rock without charging or it.

NORMAL COLLEGE ALUMNE REUNION, A pleasant custom it is, that of the graduates of acollege reassembling from year to year to ex- change congratulations, intermingle sentiments of good cheer and fellowship, and renew for a time those associations which made the old school life so agreeable. It is a custom which obtains more or less in every college, and one which has been sus- tained with unanimity in Normal. Yesterday aiter- noon, at three, lor instance, the second annual re- union of the Associate Alumn# was held in the hall of the college, m accordance with Invitations issued by the corresponding secre- tary, Miss M. Requa. The reference made in yesterday's HERALD to tea and coffee in connection with this event was proved by the event itself to have been an over-statement, originating probably in the enthusiasm of those The only collation served was an intellectual collation, and it was excellent of its kind. The hall was we | filled, mostly with ladies, just enough gentlemen being present to accentuate the light dresses with points of darkness. The ladies who took part in the exercises were E. Ida Conant, Ei Cole, Car- rie Giles, Cecilia Bassie, Nellie Nichols, Barnes, Isabella Holkins, Honora McDonough, Mary E. Smyly, M, Clare Robinson and Kila G. Shorey. There were addresses, essays, recitations, ballads and piano solos, and the entertainment concluded With the singing of ‘Auld Lang Syne." LAFAYETTE COLLEGE (OMMENCEMENT, Easton, Pa., July 2, 1873.

The Excise Commissioners Decide That Lager Is an Intoxicating Beverage, According to the Ancient Law of 1857—The 13th of July Decided Upon as the Day to Enforce the Law. A delegation of Aldermen and lager beer brewers called on the Excise Board yesterday morning to hear the decision of the Commissioners regarding the question of lager beer, which they submitted about a week ago, The brewers did not think that beer was included in the proscribed beverages. They were in hopes that the visit the Commissioners paid to the gar- dens of Gambrinus about @ week ago would remove from thelr minds the unfounded prejudice they en- tertained regarding lager beer and light wines. But their hopes were yesterday doomed to de- struction. Aldermen Kehr and Billings, accompanied by Paul Falk, Sixt Luawig Kapf and the proprietors of many of the downtown gardens, entered the Excise oMce yesterday morning smiling and beaming with hope. They were ushered to the inner office, and, alter a mutual exchange of salu- tations and a few remarks about the heat of the weather and lager’s counteractory effects, they formally stated the object of their visit to be that of ascertaining the sense of the Commissioners re- garding the fate of lager on Sundays, or, more prop- erly speaking, that o/ its consumers. A little more talk and a few more jokes. The visiting delega- tion began to be apprehensive of something they had not before anticipated. They wanted to hear it and they didn’t want to hear it. The same was the case with the Commissioners, They wanted to and they didn’t want to tell theirdecision, Justas the mouth of one of the brewers was shaped to make that sage remark eredited to the Governor of North Carolina, the Commissioners stated that they had settled the question submitted to them in this wise: Resolved, That in the opinion of this Board all lager or malt beers are intoxicating liquors, and the sale of the same on Sunday Is in violation of seciion W of chapler 6.3 of the Laws of 1357. Kesolved, That the Board will not grant licenses to any place or places where music or other attractions are in- Soateed or made Aa cre seme, Bene. ne Sanoy the peace and quietude of the majority of the Fenidents adjacent to ‘and within 200 feet of said place for which application is made. ‘The visitors said they hoped this decision was not irrevocable. According to law it might be all right, but a common sense view of matter should be taken. But notwithstanding the com- bined eloquence of Messrs. Kehr and Billings the resolutions are to remain such. ‘This resolution does away with the Atlantic Gi den and all the Bowery and Chatham street cot cert saloons. So tar so good; but then the Central Park Garden also comes under the ban of the de- cision, and the delights of drinking lager there will be greatly diminished. The music helps the beer and the beer helps the music, and one with- out the other—so far up town—won’t amount to much. In view of these developments the Teutonic element in the community is congratulating itself on what a month ago it deplored as a misfortune— the failure to annex Westchester. Here, as in ears goue by, they can enjoy tue delights of good er and bad music on Sunday. The old jam whi in 1868 and 1869 occurred regularly every Sunday on the Third avenue cars will again be witnessed aud as many fortunes wili be made this Summer as in those previously mentioned, Owing to the amount of liqhid patriotism and freedom all classes of the community will have im- bibed on the 4th and 5th the Commissioners do not taink it advisable to enforce the law on the 6th (Sunday), as the sudden stoppage. might superin- duce popular jim-jams, which would be fatal in their consequences. Sunday, the 13th of July, has been set upon as the day for enforcing the law. It is to be hoped there will be no beer riot, such as happened in Germany some short time since for iess provocation. Lager, although an exotic drink, has a8 many lovers among Americans ana Irishmen as it has among Germans. In fact it is so dear (five cents a glass) to all that they would as leave fight for their lager as their country, It would be a strange thing on the 13th of July— | the day after the 12th—to see the Orangemen, with their particular friends, together wiln the Ger- mans, combining against a common enemy tn the cause of lager beer. The 6th of July has been ol Jected to by the Commissioners on account of the patriotic inclinations of the populace. What alis their memory? The 12th is the day of patriotic manifestations. SINGULAR SHOOTING AFFAIR, A Mystery to be Explained—A Mistake All Around. A few days ago information was received at the Coroner's office that Carrie Johnson, then supposed Blackwell's Isiand, from the effects of a pistol shot wound of the left side. On the 13th day of Decem- ber last John Harrington, in a fit of jealous rage, | shot Julia Smith at 61 Bayard street, and made his escape. . He was subsequently arrested, tried, con- victed and sentenced to ten years in State Prison, Fully believing Julia Smith to be dead, Captain Kennedy, of the Sixth precinct, telegraphed to Sing Sing and learned that Harrington had been transierred to Clinton State Prison and died there two or three montis age, Captain Kennedy, not being satisfied of the demise of Harrington, tele- | graphed direct to Clinton Prison and received a reply that Harrington was not dead. Another singular fact in the case is that the dead woman was not Harrington's victim, Jutia Smith having recovered from the pistol shot wound and is now walking the streets again. So of both the purties thought to be dead neither of them are defunct nor likely to be so very soon. Carrie Johnson, the woman who really did die in the Charity Hospital, had been shot in the lett side about fifteen months ago, and a few weeks pre- vious to her death told isabella Smiley and Jane Wilson, also inmates of the Hospital, that she had been shot by her jealous lover. je woman Smiley thought sbe heard the name of John Hogan men- tioned as the man who shot Carrie, at 61 Bayard street, and the latter said the reason she did not have hum arrested was because he had escaped to England, Dr. Church, resident physician of the Charity Hospital, who attended deceased for a time, ae- scribed the wound deceased had received, the | bullet having wounded the kidney, spleen and other organs. The injuries were the cause of death. In brief, on the facts as presented before Corouer Kessler, the jury found that Carrie Johnson was fatally shot at the hands of some person unknown, but recommended that the police authorities | make efforts to arrest John Hogan, suspected of complicity in the crime. There is no certainty that deceased was shot by Hogan inasmuch as she was delirious at intervais during the time she was in the hospital, and it is possible she made the accu- sations against him while out of her mind. It is certain, wever, that Carrie Johnson was shot, but the Sixth precinct police assert that notzing of the kind has occurred within their boundaries, and the police of other precincts seem to know nothing whatever about it. BRUTAL ASSAULT.
