16 THR NATIONAL = REGATTA. The Third Annual Races of the Association (WELVE CLUBS TO BE REPRESENTED, All the Winners “in the International Re- gatta to Meet at Troy. . THE LAUREATE COURSE. SaRnatoca, August 28, 1875. Last evening and this morning were spent in busy preparation by the oarsmen in bringing in their racing shells from the lake and embarking them on board the trains bound for Troy. ‘We shall meet again at Troy,”” said one of the prominent scullers in the international regatta to another who had taken an equally prominent position in the contests just concluded. The lake pre- sented an almost deserted appearance this morning— Ro more singles, doubles, pairs or fours could be seen | Anywhere on the smooth surface of the water. A fish- ing skiff here and there, and the anuoying little Una, which created such a swell and washed the racers, with the omnibus steamer and barge in tow, were the only | Nigns of life visible from the bridge to away beyond | Bnake Hill. All the boat houses, suve the one im which | the well known oarsman Jim O'Neill is now doing his | training for his great match race with Engelhardt, are closed. LIKE UNTO HISTORY. ‘The races are over, the oarsmen have gone, the inter- national regatta of 1875 is now a thing of the past. A more successful meeting and a better representation of she leading amateur oarsmen of the country were never defore brought together, All the men participating in the races, however, do not express themselves as alto- gether pleased with the arrangements in connection therewith. The Saratoga Rowing Association evinced little or no interest, they complain, in the men who eame from a distance to row. In former years members of the association visited them at their boat houses and showed some concern in their progress and practice work. This year it was different, and many of the men felt annoyed about it. It is all past and gone now, however, and as, on the whole, it proved a grand suc- tesa, the little chagrin of the past will shortly slip from memory. SCULLERS. ‘The racing just concluded has developed an unusually strong crew of scullers. Men have come to the front who only had local reputations before. Courtney shows head and shoulders above every man he has yet been brought into contact with. There is something wonder- ful in this man’s rowing, Pulling a stroke at once so easy and so slow, one imagines, while looking at him from a distance, that he 1s not sending his boat along. ‘Time tells, and the time made in the race for the cham- plonship of the State of New York stands the best on record, Yates and Bainbridge held well the position as scull- ers they had already achieved, Tuesday and Wednes- day’s racing, however, brought new men to the fore; and henceforth, Riley, of the Neptunes, Ackerman, of the Atlantics, and Lathrop, of the Beaverwycks, must be remembered when prominent scullers are men- tioned. ‘What a fall for poor little Roache, the victor of last Year, in this regatta! Literally speaking, he was no- where. At Troy he may “pan out’’ better. Yates will not go to the national regatta, serious illness (m his family calling him home. Courtney, Riley, Bainbridge, McCormack, Ackerman, Lathrop and nearly all of the others who rowed here, with several new additions, will meet on THE LAUREATE COURSE. ‘This course is an excellent one for a mile and a half, ‘The starting point is almost on a line with the Mark ‘Tilly boat house gnd terminates ata line drawn across the river from the Laureate boathouse. Last winter end during the spring the freshets swept away the shoal which lay almost in the centre of the course, thus making it at present one of the best in the country. THE RACKS ‘will consist of single scull, pair-oared, double-scull ana four-oared shells—the same as in the imternational re- gatta, They will be rowed in trial heats, and the win- ners in the trials will then row a final heat, the victors of which will be the acknowledged best men. THR UuNTRIES. For single scullers there are ten scullers entered, and possibly this number may be increased to two more, as there is some talk of Riley and Leftman, of the Nep- tunes, entering the list. If Riley should row at Troy The struggle between bim and Courtney will be a hard ue, The winner of the State championship is not sow im as good condition as he was two days tinee. A felon has made its appearance on one of his fingers, and causes him intense pain. He may not be able to row at all. If it grows worse he may have to become a spectator of ‘the sport amd not a participator init. In case Courtney was out then Riley, if he is entered, and Bainbridge, Lathrop, Ackerman and Roache would have a hard struggle for the prize. The showing made by Orr and Maxwell, of the Seawanhakas, und by McCormack, of the Beaverwycks, proves that the task of winning will not be an easy one, Randall, of the Potomacs, and R. V. Young, of the Arlingtons, are also named among the scullers, so that, taken altogether, the field may be re- garded as strong as that which drew into line on Sara soga Lake, THE POUR-OARED RACK. This race promises to be as exciting as the one just concluded, It is to be regretted, however, that the Buffaloes and Duquesnes are not again to appear. It is questionable in the minds of some whether the Butlaloes would not have won a better position im the international regatta but for the way in which the Duquesne boat crowded them on the course up to the stakeboat. They gave them their wash twice or thrice and interfered and bothered them considerably. The practice of “washing” should be discountenanced and frowned down by every true @arsman. It is the meanest and most unsportewan- Wke advantage that an oarsman or a crew can take over Fival competitors. Apart from this, the race pulled by the Buffalo and the Pittsburg boys was so well rowed hat it is a matter of regret that they cannot again ome together this season, The Atalantas will work hard to maintain the proud position they have been able to win by good, honest, faithful rowing. Speaking of the Atalantas, there was scarcely a crew on the lake who worked at a greater disadvantage than they did. No one had any faith in them. Their own club almost ignored them. They were left alone to themselves, sad when they went out on Thursday last to row the race they so nobly won there was not, with one or wo exceptions, an Atalanta on the shore to greet them and say, “Boys, you have done well.” The crew felt it sorely, and rowed on that day very much like a & band of soldiers would fight “a forlorn hope.” They won victory, perhaps they may also have won friends, The Beaverwycks will meet them on the Laureate course Gext Tuesday or Wednesday, and successful ag the Ata- lantas have been at Saratoga Lake they may at Troy fud their Waterloo, as did the Argonautas last year. The Mutuals, of Albany, it is expected, will do much better than what they did last Thursday. Without doubt it is a good cre The position the Argonautas Bad in the race wasasurprise to most people. The erew is @ good one, but they were outrowed by every Srew competing against them. ‘The Buffaloes, whom they beat on the Kills a year ago, | fairly outrowed them. They were hopelessly fast when the boats got round the stake and wore making for home, Even the Pittsburg boys —an exceptionally light crew—got the best of them. ‘Will it be the same way at Troy? It is difficult to be- Ibeve that it will, Inthe national regatta, as if to sup the vacant places of the two crews who have gone Mew York city-sends the Friendships to fill one | gap ond Philadelphia fills the other breach with her | Quakers, Tho Friendships have named eight good men from whom to select a good four.

A NOVEL YACHT. ‘The Cleveland Leader says that Mr. A. B. Hoyt, of Warren, Ohio, has lately perfected a yacht which, for novelty of construction, is ahead of anything ever built in these or any other waters, He has named it the Safety, and with what justness the name is given a glance at the followmg description will show:—She has a double hull 24 feet in length, a beam of 12 feet over all and a depth of hold of 8 feet. The hulls are sharp at both ends, with concave sides, each being four feet beam. They are placed side by side four fect apart and connected by two decks. the lower one, amidships, being about halt way between the keel and the upper ‘deck, curving upward at the bow and stern, and uniting with the upper deck. It also forms the floor of the cockpit. Each hull is made watertight, and in shipping a sea the cockpit is the only place that can catch water. To clear out this water a scupper is built extending from the inside of the cock- pit to the ontside of each bull. The rigging is the same as on ordinary yachts having jibs, mainsail and topsail. The yacht is ‘steered by two rudders fastened to the stern of each hull and connected on the deck in such & way that they ean be turned by a single lover. ‘he invention is designed to overcothe the danger of capsizing (obviated by the use of the two hulls) and of foundering (obviated by the curved lower deck, helping the boat to rise quickly to a sea and preventing running down by the head), As the weather boat serves as bal- last, no weight of stone, metal or any heavy article is needed; therefore, in case either or both the boats are stove or spring a’ leak, they will not sink, but will float quite a number of persons. The yacht was built at the yard of Messrs, Radeliif & Langell. During the last few Weeks it has been quite thoroughly tested, and hag proved itself to be all that was intended, INTERNATIONAL CRICKET, Orrawa, Ont, August 29, 1875.

BOSS M'LAUGHLIN’S BROTHER STABBED—ARREST OF THE ASSAILANT—A SENSATIONAL STREET AFFRAY. About three o’clock yesterday morning an affray took place in Brooklyn, in which Henry McLaughlin, a brother of Fire Commissioner McLaughlin, was stabbed in the side. It seems that a party of rowdies, who are unknown to the police, had been drinking, and started along Fulton street, knocking people whom they met from side to side, Mr. McLaughlin was standing talk- ing with @ friend on the corner of Adams and Wil- loughby streets, when he was struck, and he resented the blow. He was then cut by one of the ruffians, who made good his escape. ‘Ata late hour last night Detective Curran and Officer Rice arrested Henry Jeffers on a charge of being the assailant of McLaughlin, who is regarded as fatally in- jured. They also arrested Thomas Conway, a boy thirteen years of age, who was with Jeffers just before the affray took piace, as a witness, Jeffers has the end of his right thumb cut, as if with a knife, and his face seratched. Jeffers, who is twenty-two years of age and a trackman by occupation, has been identified by Assis- tant District Engineer Farley as the man who did the stabbing, and trom whom he took the knife with which the deed was committed. It seems from the statement of the boy Conway that a party of five or six young men had been drinking in’ a saloon on Hudson avenue, near Prince street, during the might, and emerging and under the influence of liquor they commenced an indiscriminate assault upon every- body they met. During the night’s debauch the boy says two pistol shots were fired, but he does not know by whom, On the corner of Adams and Willoughby streets the Jeffers party encountered Henry McLough- lin, Assistant Engineer Farley, Jacob Cohen and three others. The Jeflers crowd immediately assailed them, striking McLoughlin, which act the latter resented, During the scuille Which ensued Jeffers drew an old jackknife, which he thrust into the left side of his an- tagonist. ’ The knife penetrated about three inches, en- termg at a point near the kidneys. Farley then took the weapon away from the fellow, who rap off Me- Laughlin exclaimed that he was'dying, and woula have fallen but for the timely support of En- gineer Farley, who caught bim and supported him to his home, which is in the vicinity. Coroner Simms visited the wounded man last evening for the purpose of taking his ante-mortem statement, but the latter declined to say anything, say- ing he didn’t want to send any one to the State Prison, The boy Conway says that when the fight occurred he ran away, and that soon after Jeffers ran up to hitn in Willoughby street and caught hold of him, There are blood marks on the boy’s clothes, which indicate that they were received from the bloody hands of Jeffers. The prisoner, who is a rough looking fellow, has a smooth face and dark brown hair. He denies that he did the stabbing, but ys that he was there. Ata late hour last night McLaughlin was very low and his recovery is doubtful. The affray has created great ex- citement in political circles from the fact that the vic- Um is closely connected with ex-Register Boss Me- Laughlin, A MYSTERY OF WAS LAMBERT DROWNED ?—A SEASIDE TRAGEDY OR A DEVICE TO CONCEAL FLIGHT FROM PECUNIARY TROUBLES? On Saturday morning @ paragraph appeared in the papers announcing that a complete suit of clothes was found in one of the bathing houses owned by Green & Robinson, at Far Rockaway, and from papers found therein were supposed to belong to Mr. H. G, Lambert, proprietor of the Brooklyn Daily Post. The messenger sent down reported that they were the clothes of Mr. Lambert, and, though no facts of the drowning could be discovered, there was but little doubt of the fact, and the Post was issued in mourning on Saturday afternoon. ‘The story as told of the drowning being a singular one, a HeRauy reporter was despatched to Rockaway to inquire into the matter, which turns out to be a most singular mystery, pointing cither to murder or the flight of Mr. Lambert to escape pecuniary troubles. ‘The latter theory is very naturally the one insisted on atthe Beach, no one there comprehending how any man could go in bathing between the hours of nine A.M. and four P. M. and drown without some one knowing of the fact. In this instance the bathroom was engaged about nine A. M., and the clothes were in the bath house at balf-pastten A. M. and at THE BEACH. xe eleven A. M., and were taken out at about th . M. and examined to discover the owner, This supposition of deception and fght is also sustamed by the fact of Mr Lambert's pecuniary embarrassments, his long struggle to maintain the Daily Post without municipal patronage having involved him and many of his friends in monetary losses, which preyed on’ his mind despite his habitial lightheartedness, and many who are strangers to him, but who have been in busi ness on the Beach for years, insist that he was not drowned, for if he had been the body would have been washed ashore in an hour, as the wind and tide stood that morning, especially as he js said to bave been in feeble health when he started for Rockaway on Thurs- day evening. The advocates of this theory, therefore, contend that he took two suits of clothes to the Beach, leaving one in the bath house, has “gone West.”” , however, maintain that Lambert has been , drowned by some of his companions, and base their story upon the statements of Hope Hendrick- the old mi jason, one of the proprietors, which runs thus ut nine o'clock on Friday morning four men ca the beach and hired bal suits, paying for the four witha $1 Ill, They then asked to have four rooms together, but that not being possible just then, y they were given rooms 4%, 3, 4 and 6, No. 5 being a pri- ‘Vate room or house, They then retired. ‘Lambert adi nin charge of the bath houses, and Mr. | inNo, 4 In @ few minutes three of them left their keys at the office aud started toward the Ly there is no certainty that the occupant of No. went with them. No one noticed them particularly when they returned to see if party consisted of three or four, bat three called for their keys and got them and afterward combed their hair in the office where the suits are let, They said nothing of missing their companion and went away, An hour liter, at Hendrickson noticed the door of s hanging therem and the key , an unusual thing; still he did much about it till afternoon, when, still see there, he informed bis employer ‘and th No trace was discovered of the ow’ utend, therefore, that the th bitter enemies he ha | half-past ten 0” ar, the clot men belong te and they have put bim ont of the way by “smi him in the water. The Beach men ‘scout however, and ask, “Where is the body and how co dispose of it??? “Hendrickson states that he placed the key of the room (No. 4) in the drawer of the office, where it was yesterday morning. Mr. Green says the room has been used once or twice yesterday, and yet Mr. J. 'l. L. Norton found the key of No, 4 attached to a piece of wood, floating in the water close to the shore, full a mile and a half to the west of the bathing place, and on taking it to Messrs. Green & Robinson they identified it as theirs, but could not account for its singular position, Taken all in all the affair is @ matter of great mystery and requires elucidation.

CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS. NEW JERSEY PROPERTY HOLDERS ALARMED-— MAYOR TRAPHAGEN CALLS A PUBLIC MEETING, While tho constitutional amendments to be sub- mitted to a vote of the people of New Jersey to-morrow week are, on the whole, desirable, t which, if passed, will effect the ruin of hundreds of property holders in Hudson, Essex, Union, Passaic and Muldiesex counties, That amendment is as follows:—‘lroperty shall be assessed for taxes under general laws and by uniform rules, according to its true valuation.’ The passage of this would repeal the “Five County Act,” which exempts mortgages from taxation, Under such a general law aman who holds property worth $20,000, with a Mortgage of $10,000 thereon, would have im reality to pay taxes on $30,000, or one-half more than it is worth, The holder of a mortgage now receives seven per cent free of tax, while under the new arrangement he would have to pay 4 tax of three per cent on his mortgage, leaving him only four per cent interest on his loan, The obvious re- sult would be the foreclosure of mortgages, by which struggling mechanics would be deprived of their homes, the fruit of many yore savings. The lender would be prohibited by the Usury law from receiving the addi- tional three per cent. A Heavy reporter had an interview with the Senator for Hudson county, Mr. Leon Abbett, on the subject. ‘That gentleman delivered his views without any reser- vation and summed up by saying:—‘‘All the amend- ments ought to be passed except that one.” He stated that the reason why the ‘Five County Act,” exempting mortgages from taxation, was passed, was because merchants and manufac. turers. in the large cities could not build or make improvements, because savings banks and moneyed corporations would not loan money on mort- gages on which they were taxed, since they had to al: low depositors six per cent, while they ouly re ceived five per cent on their loan If the amendment be passed all the money loaned on mort- gages in the counties named would be called in, and great distress and suffering would. be the result, Capi- tal would then seek an investment elsewhere. This was not a political question, but one which affects pri- vate interests. Mr. Abbett thought that democratic and republican committees should meet and have tickets so framed that the obnoxious amendment would be de- feated. The counties not included in the act are in favor of the amendment, and it will require the united efforts of both politi parties throughout the five counties to defeat it ‘The Hxxaup reporter then called on Mayor Traphagen, of Jersey City, who is strenuously opposed to the adop- tion of the amendment on the same grounds as Mr. Abbett set forth. He said that a few lawyers would reap a rich harvest, but hundreds of property holders would be ruined. In consideration of the great import- ance of the question, he has issued a call fora public meeting to be held on Lyaerngsery, Rypeerry at the Catho- lic Institute, when the case will be stated in all its bear- ings. County Clerk Brann states that he distributed the ballots throughout Hudson county during the past week, und that in nearly every district the people were entirely ignorant of the meaning and the elfect of the amendments. TIDEWATER VIRGINIA. IMPORTANT CONFERENCE AT BARNUM’S HOTEL. "Tidewater Virginia is undoubtedly one of the most promising sections of the United States, and possesses resources which, when properly developed, will make it rank in importance with some of the most thriving and prosperous portions of the Atlantic coast. The late war, the panic and other unfortunate circumstances have up to the present retarded the development of this fine country and shattered many projects tending to, raise it to its legitimate level; but time, which cures every ill, seems to have removed many of the obstacles that have hitherto stood in the way, and new efforts are about to be mude that promise a.more fortunate termi- nation. ‘The city of Fredericksburg, from its position and sur- roundings, must eventually become a great commercial and manufacturing centre, and when lines of railway Shall be established, commynicating with the West and South, it will almost certainly become the great cotton emporium of the United States. With a view to placing these advantages before the leading citizens of Northern cities, an excursion hag been projected trom Fredericksburg to New York on September 1, under the auspices of the “Rappahannock and Potomac Immigration Society.” A conference will be held at Barnum’s Hotel, corner of Broadway and Twentieth street, on Friday, September 3, at eleven o'clock A. M. Exact statements will then be made as to the cheapness and productiveness of the lands in that section of country and the superior manufacturing facilities of Fredericksburg.
