General Sherman and the officers on duty at the War Department do not share the belief that there will be any serious work for the army on the fron- tier this summer, They are of opinion that Quaker Miles, whose startling despatch to the Interior Department respecting the threatened outbreak in the Indian Territory was communicated to the War Department this morning, was greatiy de- moralized when he wrote the telegram. PURSUIT OF THE SAVAGES ORDERED, General Sherman, however, promptly ordered General Pope to use the Sixth cavairy stationed at different points in Kansas and the Indian Terri tory to punish hostile indians, There will doubt- jess be plenty of work for our troops in following roving bands, and the annual nuisince in Texas, tt is belteved, will make it active for Colonel McKinzie and his brave troops.

The crowd refused wo disperse until assured that a box of arms on the train were not there by State autnority and should not be un- | loaded, The crowd then slowly dispersed in no good humor, but contented themselves with telling the colored men they had been deceived and begging them’ not to go to work, children in their arms, pointing out the negroes to them as thove who came to rob them of bread. A specia! force has been sworn in by the authorities at Straitsville to preserve order. Despatches received here to-night state that this afternoon some of the strikers got drunk and were firing pistols in the vicinity of the colored men’s quarters. THE GOLD BEATERS’ STRIKE.

New York, Pitwshurg, Boston, St, Join and Halifax were more largely represented | than any other localities, and among the old | knights of the oar who were around were such ay the Ward brothers, Ten Eyck, Morris, of Pittsburg; ‘Tom Butler, of Boston, and a host of otners of less renown, Tiere were also present @ few aquatic collegians, who interrupted. their journey to the Saratoga regatta to witness the event in the | annals of American boating. Besides all these | there was, of course, the piesence of the general public, all of which combined to render the occasion a perfect gala in every particular. | Springfield people themselves did not go wild over | the event, a fact which ts probably accounted for | by the transferring o1 the American College re- | Ratta from this city to Saratoga, The taking away | ot so many greenbacks was more than the prudent | “Yanks of the valley could pleasantly sub- | mit to, and hence their spiteful indifference | to everything else in the line of boating.

About | six o'clock in the evening the Connecticut River | wus never more placid, and the contestants, as Well as the spectators, were in ecstacies over the brilliant auspices which favored the race irom the | beginning to the end. THR CONDITIONS OF THE RACE, | Tho articles of agreement, which were complied | with in this exciting aquatic contest, nave been adhered to In every particular, They first stipu- lated that the pull shouid be for $2,000, in gold, a | side, making the magnificent little sum of $4,000 in the yellow circulating medium which many | of the older readers of the HERALD will remember as once im general circulation | in the United States. Together with this | since the aquatic championship of the Untied | States and British Provinces went to the victor, It was also agreed that the race should be rowed over the same course of the Connecticut River that thg St. Joho or Paris and Ward Brothers? | crews contested; that it shouid be at an hour to | be mutually agreed upon a couple of days before the race; smooth water to be required, the condi- tiob of the water to be decided by the rete! who is also empowered to postpone the race to the mext day, or the first ta- | vorable day thereafter; Mr. Frank Queen, of | New York, to be final stakeholder; to toss for choice of position before starting ior the race, and started by the word “go; the men ‘to start from two boats forty yards apart, and to row two and a half miles to their respective stake- boats, and return to line of starting, each man to ; turn his own stakeboat from right to leit, the boats to be forty yards apart. One of the urticies had special reierence to ‘-coachers,” and provided | that no boat or boats should be allowed to accom- pany the men over the course. Other articles reg- ulated the use of the water recognized by all oarsmen, and to forieiture for non-compliance with THE COURSE, which is the one specified in tue articles of agree. ment, stretches along the entire line of the lower ‘part of the city. It was rebuoyed last evening py Mr. Ellis, the City Engincer of Springfield, and in the presence and to the satistaction oi both Brown and Scharff, The rebuoying of the course was ren- dered necessary in consequence of the landmarks | on the shore having become obliterated. By the timely discovery of & map of the original regatia course, when the Ward and Paris crews rowed | some years ago, the defining of the terminating | points was rendered easy. ‘The course tor to-day's | race, therefore, was latd out according to this vey, the starting points being directly opposite tne City Hall spire, and the turning point the extreme southerly boundary of the city. THK COMPETITORS, In American boating circles propably Schara, the Pittsburg oarsman, is the best known ot tne‘ two. His latest appearance in public Was at Pougi- | keepsie on the 25th ult., where he was vanquistied | ment ran ht the men | science and skill agatnst strength.

THE RACK. _ Che race throughout, from beginning to Anish, wus one of the finest ever witnesseu. Aithough Brown at times seemed to have things all his owo way, there was still such a dispiay o/ skill and cle on the part of his competitor as to iuspre his friends with hope, 1/ uoi positive idea, that he would come in whead, When the word was given both oarsmen got water well and made splendid ‘dips,’ amid the cheers and hurrahs of the thou- sands who Itned the banks on either side of the river. In the first minute Scharf! made 41 strokes against 38 by Brown, and at the time seemed to have a siigbt advantage, which tuspired great joy and confidence among the Pittsburgers. The next moment, however, 1endered matters Of this na- ture more uncertain, lor the muscular Nova Seo- tian not only closed up the gap, but made # spurt which sent him almost a ieugth abead. Aiter about @ mile Scharit was to Brown's 34, and both seemed to slow up mowentarily. At this time the ra eemed to be as much one man’s as the other's, and excite- b.

Brown took care. however, that he didn’t pass him, and mak- ing a spurt he more than recovered the gap which had been closed and went it hard tor the balfway stake, followed by his competitor. it was pretty evident at this pont that at the end of the first halt of the race Brown would iead, and this antici pation he made feed by being the first to get a@round his stake! very curious turn, but getung around some ten seconds abead of schurit. B BROWN’S FIRST ADVANTAGE. In coming back in less than «# mile Brown Was fully three lengths ahead, making %2 strokes per minute to the During the last of the five miles the taliigontan seemed to siow up a little, but whenever Scharit came to close on him he would apply himsclf more vigorously to his work and renew the gap which he seemed to have playfuily permitted his competitor to have closed. {i was now evident that it was all up with the Pittsburg oarsman, and the airatonce resounued with deafening cheers: for his rival.

How?’ asked half a dozen all at once. “Well,” answered Scharif, good-naturedly, “that, other fellow has got more wind and muscle than £ have.’ Yo-night Springfleld ts lively over the event of the day, and the iriends and backers of the victor are rN in a bigh carnival. What established the confidence of the vold men of the hardy coast was Brown’s honesty, pluck. powera of endurance and even temperament while racing. They re- caled his long race with Sadler, of England, and did not fear the dis- tance. jor two and # hali miles, and only wished that it was a twenty-live mile race. They recognised the difference between the boats, but believed in stroke, and admitted that they expected Scharif would lead perhaps for three miles; but still, witit @ courage bordering on rashness, they bet all the money they could command, the result, perhaps, was inevitabie, Scharf reely admits that Brown is the best oarsman in the country, although the breaking Md of the half dozen poat clubs on the a fellows, now I by ‘ven byck, the ud-on River aquatic, ia a three mile contest, the latser going | over the course in tweni;-five minutes. | He ig eleven years younger than Brown, and ot a | much hghter build, His first “big” race was in 1869 with Scott, the English oarsman, whom he | burg, He rowed in a boat made by Kpsey, the | weight of which was about twenty-nine pounds, Brown, of whom comparatively little is known outside of the lower Provinces of the Dominion, 15 a peculiar man and quite a study in his looks as you regard him in the light of a scuiler about io | contend for such astake and the champions ip of this continent, He is the picture of a Nova Scotia fisnerman, is thirty-six years of age and has ivl- lowed tue coast fisheries since his early boyhood.
