The attendance ‘was larger than on any day diring the year, fully three thousand persons being present. The racing was set down for one o’clock, but as early as ten o'clock bout five hundred persons had taken pos- ession of the track and tndulged im ath- etic amusements till the arrival of the horses nd their riders, and even then they reluctant! @bandoned their sports, The judges were Patric Anglascy, Lewis E. Wood and J. Morris, and when it is pose that there was a notable absence of that grum- ling which {s almost inseparable from racing sports ‘he manner im which these gentlemen performed their duties willbe understood.

The sedond race, two-mile dash, was ‘won by Tom O'Neil, Busy Bee second and Vanderbilt third, Time, 3:40%. The attendance was fair, al- though the weather was unfavorable. The races con- tinue Friday and Saturday, CONTEST FOR THE LONG ISLAND GUN CLUB cuP. The members of the Long Island Gun Club assembled yesterday, at Dexter's Long Island Shooting Ground, Jamaica road, to decide who should be'the holder of the club cup for the ensuing month, which, under the fules, has to be shot for every thirty days, The ‘weather was peculiarly suited to the occasion, and there was a full attendance of members. In addition to the principal event—the shooting for the cup—there ‘were several sweepstakes shot off, the results of which wre given below. «The birds provided for the occasion ‘wore tolerably, fair, bat not over swift, although di- rectly the traps were pulled they invariably at- tempted to get away. There was a large @ttendance of enterprisin, sportsmen. with evory description of gun, on the outside of the fence, ‘who anxiously watched every bird and made short ‘work of each one that flew out of bounds, The shoot Ing for the cup wae generally very poor, with the ex- ‘eeption of that of Messrs, Wingert, Van Buren and | eee the latter of whom was the victor, killing nine Birds out of ten. The rules under which this trophy is @hot for provide for seven birds each, 25 yards r 80 yards boundary, 14 ounce of shot, H and T traps, with Binglc birds in each. The contestants for the most Boos used breech-loaders, Operations were commenced bout haif-past twelve, and the sport was continued ‘Until dusk, The following summaries will show the re Gult of the shooting: — THR LONG ISLAND CLUB CUP.

PIGEON SHOOTING AT BABYLON. ‘The limited number of pigeon shooters at Babylon, L. L,, yesterday morning, caused Ira A. Paine to “de- clare off’ the sweepstakes announced to take place on his grounds. But one or two of the old faces usually noticed when sport of this kind ts promised were to be Seen, and the conclusion was that “all hands” bad gone somewhere else to enjoy the day, ‘wo events, however, made up on the spur of the moment,, were decided, which afforded some little amusement and perhaps in a measure repaid the few outsiders for the trouble of journeying thither. Tho first of these was a match, $20 a side, between Captain Sol Saxon and Captain Nat Clock, both old “bay shooters” living near Babylon, and having but few equals when bagging ducks is the word, or, as in the case of the latter, the Salling of a yacht is required, ‘The conditions were fifteen birds each, 25 yards rise, 1X ounce shot, and English rules to govern. Sol proved himself the better man and won the match, shooting out the “yachtsman” at the twelfth bird. A sweepstake, $5 entrance, five birds each, 25 yards rise, followed, with seven entries. This fell to Mr. G. F, Jones, and it ended the pigeon shooting at Bubylon on Thanksgiving Day. SUMMARY.

Under the auspices of the American Rifle Assoctation, aseries of interesting matches came off yesterday at Glen Drake range, near Pelhamville, Westchester county. As some of the prizes to be shot for were open to all sorts and conditions of marksmen, and as the weather was all that could be desired, the attend- ance was large, it being estimated that not lesg than 2,500 persons visited the groand$ during the day. First on’ the programme was a “Subscription Match,” distance 300 yards; any rifle; trigger pull, three pounds; position, standing and firing from the shoulder; entrance fee, $1. One-half of the entrance | money to be for the beneilt of the association; balance to be divided among the three highest scores; en- trances not limited, The firing in this match was at a 200 yards target, each competitor being allowed five shots, in addition to two Sighting. shots. When the shooting ceased at four o’clock, F. Hyde was declared the highest scorer, peti, made twenty points out of a possible twenty-five. The remaining two highest scores were not known when darkness set 1n, The next was an ‘‘All Comers’ Match,” the distance, targets and conditions being similar to the foregoing, exceping that each man had seven shots. To the win-+| ners in this contest there were offered five prizes, varying in value from $35 to $5. The following are the names of the successful contestants and their scores ut of a possible. thirty-tve:—Frederick -Backofen, gaan Forty seventh mont N.G.8.N.Y., 26; Phullip C okspire, Company K, Twenty-seventh re ment . N. .N.Y., 24; Colonel George D, bare 3 Sergeant W. A. French, Seventh regiment N G.S.N.Y., %; Ordnance.Sergeant T, R. Murphy, Eighth regiment N.GS.N.Y., 2. Another and without doubt the most interesting con- test was the ‘De Peyster Badge Match,” open only to members of the National Guard, in uniform. The badge is of gold, appropriately designed and richly chased, Its value 1s about $400. This must be won three times before any member can lay claim to it, The weapons used were military rifles, the distance, position, &c., being the same az in the two preceding matches.’ The competitors had each seven shots at the target. In this match Frederick Buckofen took the prize, scoring | twenty-five out of a possible thirty-five. The “old time turkey shoot,” proved the opposite to Incrative on the part of the projectors. In the first place, it was intended that the head of alive turkey should be exposed as @ target, but Mr. Bergh, having received an intimation of the proposed cruolty ‘to birds, laced bis veto on that particular feature of the sport, ‘Accordingly it was decided to decapitate the turkeys, and then allow the head and neck of each bird to be operated upon by the marksmen at adistance of 100 yards with regulation muskets, The entrance fee was fifteen cents per shot. Before the receipts bad commenced to accumulate the stock of turkeys rapidly decreased, and when a party took two birds out of four shots there was a hearty laugh given by the spectators, which waa changed to a roar as Philip Crookspire, after firing six shots, carried off the last four turkeys re- maining, and thus put an end to the fun. THE SCOTCH-AMERICAN ATHLETES. The members of the Scottish-American Athletic Club spent yesterday in a very enjoyable way, Their first an- nual handicap games were given at Jones’ Wood Colos- seum, and, judging from the large crowd of intereated Spectators who were in attendance, the future annuals of the club will be quite an event with our Scotch- American citizens, Although the weather overhead was all that could be desired by the most exacting, and, therefore, made thoroughly enjoyable to the crowd of lookers.on, who had comforta- ble seats im the amphitheatre, those who took an active part in the exercises of the entertain- ment were rather discommoded by the condition of the ground, ‘The slight frosts of the day previous had hardened it somewhat, but the sun yesterday forenoon thawed it well out, so that the track used for the walk- ing and running was muddy and slippery. This proved ® great disadvantage to the gentlemen who entered for the match of throwing the light hammer and of tossing the — caber. They were unable to get a good foothold, and not afew on this account failed to make even a respectable record? It was after eleven o'clock before the games were begun, ‘There were then about 200 persons on the grounds, bat later in the day the attendance increased considerably, and there must have been over 2,000 spectators near the close when the three-mile walk was in progress, There were twelve entries for the light hammer throw- ing, each competitor baying three throws and the right to have his score stand on his best throw. Charies Mc- Letehie, allowed a handicap of 15 feet, threw the hammer 98 ft, 4 in. Robert Williamson, allowed 10 18 feet, threw it 97 ft. 8 in. A 100 yards race.was run by heats, The first heat was atic between Alexander Tasker and L. D, Robertson, the latter being allowed a handicap of 12 yards; the second heat by Francis Dykes, Jr., allowed a handicap of 8 yards; the third by John Grassick, given a handi- cap of 7 yards, and the fourth by D. B. Fleming, given handicap of 7 yards The race was inaily won by Grasseck in 11m. 3¢8. The next was a one mile walk, which was won by | Thomas McEwen. John Knox,’ Jr, in the runnin, high leap, allowed 6 inches over Addison an Tasker at the “scratch,” jeaped 6 ft, 3 in., and George Mitchell, Jr., 6 2 in, he being given 10 | inches over the '‘scratch. The half-mile race was won | by B. Greig in 2m. 94¢., David F, Knox bei cond and William Varker (scratch) third. Greig was given 25 yards and Knox 50 yards over the scratch. In “put Ling the light stone,” John Grassick (scratch) was first, he throwing the stone 87 ft. 7 in. Charles McLetchie, given 4 feet beyond the scratch, threw it 37 ft. 6 in,’ and John MeMillan, given 7 laches, threw it 35 of. 5 in In wrvanlting “with the pole, John Knox, allowed 2 fect, vaulted 9 ft, 9 in. ; Frank Duke (scratch), 8 ft, 4 in., and George Talmie, allowed 1 ft 6 in., vaulted 8 fi 8 in. Tho quarter-mile race was won by David F, Knox, who had an allowance, of 28 yards, in lm. 1338; Thomas Mo Ewen, allowed 20 yards, was second. In throwing the 66 Ib. weight A. Thomson, allowed 3 ft, threw tI weight 21 {t. 8 in.; H. Graham, allowed 6 ft., threw it 20 ft. 2 in.; J. MoMillan (scratch), 19 ft.’ 11 in, The sack race was won by D. F.

The three mile walk was won by sPhomas McEwen (serstch) in 28 minutes; Joha Low, lowed 2 m. 15 was second, and Jobo Henderson, was third, ‘The judges were George and Mathew Goldie, D. M. Stern and Mr, Giles. The entertainment did not come to au end Ul long after dark. PEDESTRIANISM AT ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE. Of all things else, a delightful day is that which tends moat to the happy result of any open air amuse- ment, and, indeed, to the students of St, John’s Col- lege was afforded one which could not {ail to satisfy | their most sanguine expectations. THR MANLY SPORTS. ‘These were a 100-yard race, six gentlemen taking part. Winner, Mr. P. H. Mooney, class of '77. Time, 113¢ seconds. Mr. M. H, Crowley, class of 78, Onished second. Next in order was a mile walk, in which the most lively imterest was manifested. Mr. Henry Xavier, class of 'T7, making a bold dash at the outset, and in- creasing rather than relaxing his exertions toward the end, came in winner in 8m. 38, Mr. John Weir, class of 79 came in second. A half-mile ri won by Mr. P. A. Hendricks, class of 78. ‘Time, 2m. 36s, Mr. John A, Weir, class of ’80, second, The last of the sports, two standing jumps, was won A Mr, Hendricks—20 ft. 7 in, Second, Mr. P. J. arkey. ‘The full sucooss of the exercises was greatly marred by the ill condition of the track, in consequence of the severe frost of the previous night. AT LONG ISLAND CUTY. The members of the Arlington Boat Club and afew other muscular men about Long Island City and Green- point participated yesterday tna number of running and walking matches, The weather was delightful, and the boys and their friends turned out in large num- bers. The contests came off on a level piece of ground atthe east side of the Arlington Ciub House, near the shoreof Newtown Creek. Mr, Harrison B. Moore, Presi- dent of the Arlington Boat Glub, was appointed to di- rect the amusements and distribute the prizes. As. tiona was to receive a prize, the list of competitors was large. Walking matches for one and three miles and ranning one anda half mile stretehes were the main features of the sport. The contests commenced soon after ton and were finished at about half-past twelve o'clock P, M. No feat worthy of recording was per- formed. BALL. For the last two or three Saturdays the old Nassau nine have been playing and defeating the strongest picked nines on the Prospect Park Grounds. So the lovers of the game became anxious to see them pitted against the strong Chelsea nine. It finally resulted in a game being arranged for Thanksgiving Day, which has been the talk among the “boys” for the past week. So a wuch larger crowd than usual was collected on the Park Grounds yesterday afternoon to witness the game, The Chelsea nine failed to put ina full appearance, not BASE waiting until half-past three two tens were selected, one from the old Nassau club the other from the field, six of whom were Chelsea men. ‘The first inning was played loosely on both sides, each making four runs. ‘The rest of the game was very well played, not a run being made on eithor side until the soventh inning when the field ten made one. In “the eighth the Nassau ten scored one and their oppo- nents two. Darkness prevented longer play. Fine catches wore made by Cassidy, Bunce and Bur- dock. Rogers and Clare led at the bat, Barnes’ play behind the bat was excellent, ‘The following is the score:— NASSAU, vIELD. Players. RAB.PO.A.B. Players. 2.1B.PO.A.E.

HAND BALL. Hand ball is as yet an unacclimated game here. It differs from racket in that the racket is dispensed with and the naked hand substituted. Skilled hand ball players are not numerous. but when four of tho kind can be got together to play a match of seven or nine games the entertainment they are capable of furnish- ing is of the most exciting character. Billiards and base ball are quite insipid beside it, from end to end of the two hours’ match played yesterday at McQnade’s court, No, 404 Madison street, the interest of the sport- ing audience present never abated, and vat times was thrilled into loud’ explosions of applause, The sport ‘announced as “a grand hand ball matth between the hero of hig" James Everett, along with Michael Daughney, of Brooklyn, against Bernard and Arthur McQuade, of New Yo he best of seven games, for $200 a side and the championship of America,” ‘THE PLAY. The first game closed 21 to 18 for Everett and Daughney. Tho second game brought out the superior coolness and watchfulness of the McQuades, and they won by 21to7. Inthe third game the playing was Toagnitioans on both sides, some surprising strokes having been made. It wag also very closo, and was won by Everett’s side, 21 t0 20, The fourth game was also well played, though the score stood 21 to 7 for the McQuades. In the fifth game Everett's right arm be- gan to fail, and he could hardly strike back the length of the room; but his left stood to him, though in vain, for the score counted tor the MeQuades 2ltoll, In the sixth game Everett and Daughney made a desper- uate effort to retrieve themselves; but ‘their nimble and hardy antagonists were here, there and everywhere, springing in a flash from one side of the room to the other and oxecuting the most difficult.strokes. The score stood for the McQuades 21 to 12, ana the match was declared theirs, Messrs. James Dunn and William Ryan acted as judges and Mr. John Dunn as marker. BRACKET AND HAND PALL IN BROOKLYN. At Casoy’s racket and hand ball court, corner of Hoyt and Douglass streets, Brooklyn, yesterday, there was alarge attendance. The special occasion was the promised match between Mr. Philip Casey, the United States champton hand ball player, and Mr. Frank Burke, the champion of Philadelphia, ‘The first game of the day wag by James Keating, of New York, and John Miller, of Philadeiphia, against Richard Townsend and Martin McDonnell, of Brook- lyn, ending with a score of 21 to 17 in favor of Towns- end and McDonnell; andagecond game in which the score was 21 to 19 in favor of Keating and Miller, There were two three-handed Pee. played by Richard Townsend and John Dowd against James Casey, a brother of the champion Philip, who finished the first game with his two opponents with a score of 21 to 16 in his favor. game he scorea only a single 1to the 21 of bis oppo- nents, In the third game he was beaten by 21 to 17, THE MATCH BETWEEN TAH CHAMPIONS. ing interest to all who enjoy the game, aro that thir- teen games are to be played, for $200, the first six at the court over which Mr. Philip Casey is the governor, in Brooklyn, and the remaining seven at the racket an hand ball court in Philadelphia Mr. Casey had agreed to give Mr. Burke ten points in each game, The toss was. won by Mr. Burke, who took his hand and opened the contest with a hard won score of which, with the 10 allowed to bim, made him 12 in the game of 21 points, Mr. Casey then took his first hand and after scoring 2 handsomely retired in favor of Mr. Burke, who, however, only remained in long enough to score ‘a single 1, In the next hand Mr. Casey added 8 to his score, Immediatel: aiterward Burke added 4 to his score, Exceed- ingly sharp play followed, during which Mr, Casey added six well earned acos to his score, The game now stood 161017. Burke then added another to his score and Mr. Casey came in with his old time quiet, sturdy play, and making 5 points ¢losed the ein his favor with the score standing :—Casey, 21; rurke, 18. In the second game of the series, both playing well throughout, Casey won again, the score stand- ing:—~Casoy, 21; Burke, 15, he third game was by far the most spirited of all that were played; the Philadetphian doing his best, ‘The game closed with a score of 21 to 20 in favor of Casey. ‘The fourth game showed marked improvement on the part of Burke, and, with the 10 in his favor to | commence with, he got 21, while Casey scored only 18, The fifth game was again in favor of Casey, who ae extra strong end finished it with ascore of 21 to 6. The sixth and Ins$ game in this State was won by Casey, the score statiding:—Casey, 21; Burke, 10. ‘The remaining games will be played in Philadelphia, on Monday next. COD FISHING ON THE BANKS, Yesterday morning, at the early hour of seven o'clock, a small knot of men were standing on the stone pier at the foot of Whitehall street, and although it was cold and raw enough, yet the group seemed very jubilant, as they were in momentary expectation of the arrival of tho steamer Seth Low, which was to take them to the Fishing Banks in search of the bounding codfish, The fishers were all well equipped for their trip, having baskets with lunches, bait and hooks, and from some of the baskets were seen pecping the necks of mysterious looking flasks, that mo doubt contaimed liquids ww kew the every member who entered for the several competi-" more than six of their players being present. After | In the second | The conditions of this match, which is one of absorb- | cold = ont. There was seream . from steam whistle and the Seth Low hove im sight and took on board the group of cod fishers, who speed. ily sought shelter on the forward part of the boat and commenced to get their bait and tackling joined together. Stoppages bad been made at different places | on the East and North rivers by Captain Morrell, in charge of the Seth Low, and about seventy or eighty old fishermen were passengers, The sail down the Bay was beautiful in tho extreme as the sun rose to its zenith, and the passage of a steamer im or out or the ‘swift’ darting through the water of some sea bird such as a loon or, wild duck, was all that occurred to diversify the still- ness of tho glorious morning. After a two hours’ sail the Seth Low, with Mr. Foster at the helm, reached Long Branch, and was soon paws at anchor ou the Seven Fathoms Bank. A small boy, who fills the posi- tion ofa fishing cup bearer and furnishes lager and boiogna sausages, sandwiches and hot coffee, to the hun- gry and thirsty sports, was the first to haul ap a Osh, and such a fish as it was raised a shout which rent the airabove, The first capture was what is known as a sea robin, or scorpion, a nasty looking “winged fish, weighing about half a pound. Then came a large number of scorpion fishes, one after (he other, and about this time the chowder was made and put to boil over a slow fire, to give the boys an opportumty to smell something good while they were working for the finny tribes, Just about this juncture a shout was raised that @ monster had been taken from the deep, and Peter Moyers, of Greenpoint, who loves a hook and line better than even a Thamks- giving dinner, was discovered struggling with his line. ‘e had hooked a skate, a most uncouth looking ant- mal of about forty pounds weight. With his huge mouth wide apart, he looked like the pictured efligy of some old bishop on a tombstone. There were eight or ten of these skates caught during the day’ sport, all of a very large size, and a number of lar; conger eels, The deck was covered literally with scorpton fish so that they had to be swept overboard afterward, and a large number of fine black fish were also taken, The cod fishing was excellent. Not afew were caught weighing as much as ten or twelve pounds each, The sport was good, and the party retarned to be Battery before six o'clock, very well satished with the trip, THE TROUBLE AT PRINOETON COL- LEGE. PARTICULARS OF THE DISMISSAL OF THE STU- DENTS—AN APPEAL BY THE PARENTS TO THE TRUSTEES—THE ATTEMPT TO SUPPRESS SECRET SOCIETIES. Prixoxtow, Nov. 25, 1875. The events of the past few days at this famous seat of learning have created considerable commont and dis- cussion, and the intense fecling among the students in | Fegard to the extreme measures taken by the Faculty, which atone time came near resulting in a general outbreak, although now completely allayei, is atill in- wardly fostered by the dissatisiied students, In all twenty-two have been dismissed, ‘not expelled,” | eighteen of whom belonged to the Senior class, The Faculty has not the power to expel any one, only to suspend, tho Board of Trusteos only betng intrusted with this responsibility. If a student was expelled he could nét apply for admission to any other college, whereas if he was only dismissed he could exercise this privilege, There were 109 students altogether in the Senior class before this difficulty arose. That the existence of several secret societies in the college for some time past was known, by ‘Dr MeCosh and others of the Faculty 1s not disputed. Several of the members of these secret confraterni- ties even wore pins emblematic of the orders in pub- Hc. Dr. McGosh, as President of the institution, was uzzled how to act; he stood between two fires’ and estitated as to which one he would run into, On the one side were the college laws, which he was in duty bound to uphold; on the other were the wealthy and influential parents of the implicated stadents, whose friendship the genial hearted Doctor would los¢ were he t© ensorce the laws. A few days ago the Doctor went to Cincinnati, Ohio, While away the next gentleman in authority, Professor Lyman H. Atwater, | found a golden opportunity in the absence of the Doc: tor to bring about the climax between the Faculty and the students of the secret orders, Dr. Atwator ad- ministers the “pledge” to all new comors, and this pledge enjoins them from joining or becoming mem- bers of any secret society, Having a list of tho | names of the ill-fated twenty-two he. summoned them to appear and asked them to renounce the secret orders, A few protested their in- nocence, but the major portion acknowledgod their guilt, at'the same time stubbornly refusing to comply with'the demands of the Professor. He then furnished them all with their “walking papers.” Nearly all of the dismissed students have gone home, only a few re- maining behind. The Faculty say they have now done their duty in the premises, and it remains for the | Board of Trustees to take nal action, Most of the students reside in New York. Some of their parents have already communicated with the trustees in refer- ence to the matter, and a meeting of this body will soon be convened for the purpose Of adjusting the dif- ficulty, The following are the names of the members of the Board of Trustees :— Governor Bedle, ex-officio President; Dr. McCosh, acting President; ‘Rev, Charles Hodge, D. D.; ex-Gov: ernors Daniel Haines and Charles 3. Olden; H. W. Green, LL, D.; 8, H. Pennington, M. D.; Rev.’ Elijah R. Craven, D. D.; Rev. G. W. Musgrave, D. D.; Rev. Cyrus Dickson, D. D.; Rev.

Rob- inson, TAMMANY’S FORFEITURE. {From tho Evening Post of Nov. 2%. | The fourth and last of the series of sketches of Tam- many Hall, which we publish to-day, contains the origi- nal act of incorporation of the society, passed April 9, 1805, and the act amendatory of the same, passed April 23, 1867, These laws define clearly the objects of the society and enable us to determine very easily whether it has departed from its logitimatd purpose, The preamble of the act of 1805 recites that the in- corporators have formed an association “for the pur- pose of affording relief to the indigent and distressed members of the said association’ and have asked to be incorporated “for the purposes aforesaid.” There | is no mistaking this plain corporate description, The society is by law a charitable association, and {t may lawfally perform such corporate functions only as relate to the transaction of its charit- able business. The “therefore” which follows the re. cital of the “‘whereas”’ is an absolute limitation. It is enacted that the Society of Tammany or Columbian Order in the city of New York shall be a body cor- porate, and shall have and exercise the powers common to bodies corporate, including the power to acquire and hold property (which sbail not exceed in yearly value the sum of $5,000), “for the purpose of enabling them the better to carry into effect the benevolent purpose of affording relief to the indigent and distressed.” ‘The act of 1867 simply increases the amount of ss erty which the society may lawfully hold to the yearly value of $50,000, and these are all the laws relating to bees! Not only the historical skétches which we have pub- lished, but the familiar, every day history of the city, shows that the original purpose of the soclety has been wholly neglected, and, instead of it, a purpose en- tirely foreign to the’ objects of the charter has been pursued. A more perfect perversion could not be con- ceived. If the Union Ferry Company, whose business itis to run boats between this city and Brooklyn, should undertake to build and work a railroad to San Francisco; or if an insurance company should direct its attention solely to the maintenance Of an inebriate | asylum; or if the directors of a bank should magne 4 theatrical management—in none of these cases would tho departure from a legitimate purpose be wider than it is in the case of the charitable society of Tammany, which is now and for years has been nothing but a secret asso- ciation of political managers. Tammany has forfeited its charter, if such a forfeiture is ever possible, and the Legislature should wipe the incorporating acts from tho statute book, THE HERALD AND CAUSE. To tee Eprror or Tun Herauy:— Allow me, as chairman of the Society Independencia do Cuba, to address you, soliciting the insertion in your valuable paper of the following lines:— In the session held by this society on the evening of the 2lst inst, it was not sustained, as you have been made to understand and you published m your num- ber of the 22d inst., that the HeraLp was not friendly to the Cuban cause, It was hay: 4 & motion made by a member to protest against the idea, asserted in one of beg former articles, that the island of Cuba should fall ripe into the government of the United States. All Cubans are very thankful for your efforts and those of your staf! in favor of the Cul cause, thus feeling wary obliged forever, Allow me also to correct the error in to-day's Heraco, stating that the Vice President of Cuba, F. V. Aguilera, was on board of the Uruguay. He was not with the expedition, as your reporter deducts trom his interview with Colonel Lopez Gueralta, lam truly yours, with the highest consideration, New York, Nov. 24, 1875, J. J. GOVANTES, ST. THE CUBAN T. CECHLIA'S DAY, Next Sunday, November 28, will be the anniversary of St. Cecilia, the patroness of music and inventor of the organ, Preparations have been made in this city | A Holiday on the Stock Exchange—The Busi- ness Outlook—The Proposition to Reduce, the Rate of Brokers’ Commissions. Watt Sree spay, Nov, 25, 1 A holiday i not always a “holy day,” taken in its dictionary significance of “a day of rest from ordinary labor,” and it is questionable whether an out-and-out condition of nothing to do is not to most people quite as irksome as too much of its oppos It will be con- ceded, however, that there is positive relaxation in getting rid, even for a day, of the steaty grind at ono single employment, and of supplementing it with some other work that by contrast seems almost pleasure, But labor physics pain, and most people have to tuke the medicine whether they like {tor not, Perhaps the millennium will develop some hommopathic treatment less heroic and more agreeable to the sons of toil; when, too, the maximum of bread can be gained ata miniigum of perspiration, 4 A close holiday in the street necessarily curtails the money article of a daily newspaper, and we propose to- day to make Stock Exchange men and things a subject of discussion tn liea of figures. Formerly the courtesy of admission to the floor of the board was extended to the financial writers of the public Journals, but the council of forty bave ‘im proved” this privilege away, as they have improved away the business of the members. So we must mount to the visitors’ gallery to procure a view—a bird’s-cye view—(such as is alluded to in matrimonial advertise- ments), without even the certainty that distance will make it enchanting. 4 Writers on this topic are fond of describing the scene as resembling a “bull ring’? or a ‘bear garden,” but as ninety men out of a hundred have seen neither one nor the other, some doubts may be expressed as to the truthfulness of the picture, Bears and bulls there are in numbers, and on @ declining market brokers will observe to each other that “there isa fine crop of young grizzlies springing up.” The expression ts bucolic, so the reference to a garden may be correct after all. Inthe financial zodiac Mr, Gould is at present Tawrus princeps, the longest horned, sleekest\\coated and strongest framed bull of the herd. He lowers his head, makes a charge atastock and his Andalusian brother in a Spanish arena, Bo the securities really secure, or be they as light as autumn leaves, up they must fly at the flourish of his horns. But the bull in the arena cannot always keep on the rampage. It 1s good fun scattering the chulos and prod- ready, and sooner or later the sharp steel reaches his vitals, Does Mr. Gould ever see the matador, we wonder, standing half concealed with the red flag marked “Ruto” tn one hand and the sharp sword of ‘Panic’? in the other? But Taurus is gifted with the power of transmigra- tion. To-morrow he may be Ursa Major; then stocks, which he tossed up asa bull, he will claw down as a bear; and the speculator who has been trying to follow in his track will be suddenly turned upon and rended, When such a power as this controls the stock mar- ket—when black 18 made to appear white and white black, when prices are advanced or lowered without rhyme or reason, when the whole business is managed under the influence of chicanery and fraud—is it any | wonder that speculators are frightened out of the mar- ket and even investors hold their securities with fear | and trembling? The real legitimate speculation of former days, which was based upon judgment, foresight and a knowledge of values, no longer exists. Of what avail is it, the knowledge that such and such an institution, being well managed, its stock should go up, or, badly man- aged, that its price should go down, ‘The unwary ope- Tator who should act upon such impressions in these days would find himself in a lamentable plight indeed. Mr. Gould comes in with his prop and his, peas, and our pradent, well informed speculator cannot for the Ife of him “tell under which thimble the little joker lies.”” ‘The proposition is pending to lower the rate of com- missions, so as to give investors a fairer chance and in- duce the quick, sharp turns that involve small loss or profit and reduce the magnitude of the risk. The plan is favorably discussed and a paper is now in circulation for signatures, after which the question will be for- mally decided by the Stock Exchange. We aro assured. that the change will be welcome toa very large clasa of operators, especially those who deal in lots of 100 and 200 shares, and the belief is freely expressed among brokers that their business will show a large increase as soon as the law is thus amended.

There were but a small number of prisoners brought up before thts Court yesterday and the most of those arraigned had been arrested for intoxication or disorderly conduct. Sergeant Allen of the Fifteenth precinct charged two women named Louisa Bornhemm and Lillie Adams with soliciting mon, and officer Carr of the Fifteenth precinct had arrested six others early yesterday morning on the same charge.

While the examination was going o1 aman, well known in the Fifteenth ward, called Gari- in West Third and Houston streets, and always makes his appearance when any of his employés are arrested. Judge Morgan saw this man making signa to the prisoners, and he at once instructed tho sergeant te keep him out of the court room in future unless he could show that he had legitimate business.
