HIS MAJESTY'S VISIT TO OBJECTS OF INTEREST IN AND ABOU? “THE HUB"—THE BOSTON NAVY YARD PRONOUNCED A MODEL INSTITU- TION—HI8 FUTURE MOVEMENTS, Bosron, June 11, 1876. ‘The Emperor, Empress and suite attended divine services in the Catholic cathedral this morning and were much pleased with the serene and modest aspect of the church, which they found more in keeping with the character of a Christian temple than some of the more ornate structures they had visited during their voyage. On the conclusion of the service the Emperor, accompanied by Vice Ad- miral De Lamane, went to inspect THE STATE PRISON. As the old building stil! is used, His Majesty found the cells very narrow and too closely packed to- gether. Otherwise this establishment appeared to be well ordered. From the prison His Majesty pro- ceeded w the Navy Yar, where, through the cour- tesy of Commodore E. T. Nichols, he was shown through the more interesting departments. His Majesty says that, as he did not expect to find THE NAVY YARD very well mounted, he was pleasantly surprised at finding @ beautifully arranged arsenal with most important machinery, such as he had not seen even in the navy yards of Europe. ‘The rope factory, he says, equals the celebrated French establishment at Toulony and possesses machinery that cannot even be found there. Vice Admiral De Lamare, who ac- companied His Majesty, spoke of the Boston Navy Yard in the highest manner as a model establish- ment. The Admiral had made notes of several im- proved methods and intends to urge their adoption on the government of Brazil. ‘The Emperor has accepted an invitation from Mr. Bancroft, the celebrated historian, to dine with him at his Newport residence on the 18th of the month.

Enguerrande and Mondaine Sec- ond and Third. IMMENSE ATTENDANCE AT LONGCHAMPS (SPECIAL DESPATCH TO THE HERALD BY CABLE. ] Panis, June 11, 1876. The Grand Prize of Paris, the only race of any im- portance run in France, in which foreign bred horses are allowed to compete, was decided on the far famed Longchamps to-day, and was won by Mr. Alexander Baltazzi’s Kisber, the winner of the English Derby. LONGCHAMPS AND ASCOT COMPARED. Not even in the days of the Empire did this gay racecourse ever present a gayer scene, and Marshal MacMahon, as he took his seat in the old Imperial tribuhe, looked down on a larger crowd than any the late Emperor had ever witnessed. Perhaps no racecourse in the world presents such a brilliant spectacle as the Longechamps on aGrand Prix day. The racing, of course, is not so good as is seen in England, and the magnificent spectacle presented by the Court enclosure at Ascot is wanting, In other respects, however, the Longchamps is unique, and as utterly unlike an English racecourse as can well be imagined. Here all is lightheartedness and gayety; in England there is a large amount of grim earnestness about the sport. THE GRAND PRIZE CAN NEVER BECOME INTERNA- TIONAL. The Grand Prix de Paris, though the richest pursein the world, has so far beena comparative failure. Itis supposed to be, par excellence, the international race, but in this respect it falls immeasurably short of the English Derby. -When the late Duc de Morny con- ceived the idea of the race he thought by adding $20,000 in hard cash to it to at once place it on the highest turf pinnacle. He had overlooked the fact that in England, where horses can be backed to win $500,000, stakes are of minor consileration; indeed, when the late Sir Joseph Hawley won the Derby with Beadsmaid he presented them, and they amounted to about $30,000, to his trainer and jockey. Another reason why the Grand Prix can never be international is that it is ran on Sunday. When the race was founded the French Jockey Club wrote to their English brethren, asking for their support, Admiral Rous, in reply, pointed out that. racing on the Sabbath was a violation of the religious feelings of Englishmen, and that the Jockey Glub could not give the support asked, if anyother day could be selected they would throw all their influence into the scale. As the railways, however, contribute a very large Proportion of the $20,000 subscribed, and Sunday is the great holiday of Frenchmen, the change could not be made. "The result is that some of the-more important English breeders have never taken any nominations, more especially Lord Falmouth, who always goes to church on Sunday, with a big prayer book under his arm. Many owners of horses in Eng- land are members of Parliament, and, however will- ing they might be to go for the prize, they dare not for fear of their constituents. Though on the pres. ent occasion 262 horses were nominated for the Tace, only seven were the property of members of of the House of Lords and Commons. With the French, on the other hand, it is the delight of almost every member of their Jockey Club, not only to take a nomination, but to sapport the meeting by this presence. The French Jockey Club is very different to that of the English, which is a staid assembly, having club rooms only at Newmarket. In France the Jockey Club have the most sumptuous rooms in the gayest part of Paris—in fact, it isthe first club of that gay capital. ENGLISH AND FRENCH VICTORIES. The Grand Prize was first run in 1863, and since that time the English have won five times, the French six, and one other race is in dispute; M. Montgomery, the owner of Fervacques, being an Englishman, naturalized in France, a remark that will also apply to his horse. On account of the war there was no race in 1871, much to the chagrin of Mr. Merry, who had a horse engaged that could not apparently have lost. The very first horse entered for the Grand Prize of Paris of 1871 was a colt | named King William. How singularly prophetic! ‘There was no taik of war when that nomination was made. The Due de Morny, in instituting the race, met with a considerable amount af opposition, The mnch superior to the Frerfeh, and patriotic French- men depiored that so mach money should cross the | Channel. La Toucques, in running second the first year, however, gave them a little confidence, and when Vermont npset Blair Athol their enthnsiasm knew no bounds, and Gladiateur following the next season, made them think that it was they who were in reality invincible. So, no matter what excuse inay be made for England on the score that many of its best horses have not been engaged, there is no getting away from the fact that if they had been entered the battle, so far as number of winners If Galopin could have visited Paris last year perhaps | we might not have had to chronicle the victory of Salvator, And in 1869 Glaneur might, perhaps, not have been able to cope with the English Dert ner. In no other year, however, Joes it seem feasi- | went, wonld not have been more than a draw. ble that under the most favorable circumstances: the English conld have wrested the prize from their opponents, NAPOLEON II1'8 LAST APPEARANCE ON THE TURP. So far a8 rank and fashion are concerned there has been nothing in the Longchamps to compare with the Grand Prix in the Exhibition year, when Na- poleon IIf. had half the sovereigns of Europe dancing attendance upon him. It was when he was present to congratulate M. Lafitte on winning, in 1870, that he made his last appearance to the Parisian public. Two months later a special train skirted Paris, conveying Cesar and his fortunes to the German frontier, and Paris knew him no more. THROUGH THE BOIS DE BOULOGNE TO THE COURSE. Driving through the beautiful Bois de Boulogne, every avenue of which was filled with carriages, it was dificult to conceive that there had ever been MONDAY, JUNE 12, 1876.—TRIPLE SHEET. war here. The trees that had been cut down imme- diately round the fortifications have been replanted and are growing luxuriantly. The spring has been backward and the foliage looked fresher than usual, The lake was thronged with boats, and Paris was obviously taking its pleasure to-day. The cascade, in which art has been made to assist nature so admirably, was in- accessible on account of the carriages drawn up in front of the café, so gratefully remembered by all who have breakfasted there, A little further, and the celebrated Windmill is passed. Payment of & louis opens to the visitor the long range of stands, from the top of which an uninterrupted view of the Tace may be obtained. And now we are looking down on the very spot where Kaiser William reviewed his mighty legions not six years ago before they made their triumphal entry into Paris. In the mind’seye we are witnesses of the splendid pageantry. There, by the judge’s box, sits squarely on his charger the aged Emperor, the battalions saluting him as they make their final march past. They do not complete the circle of the course, but as they near the: left hand corner turn into the lower avenue, and the serpentine mass winds on in the direction of Port Maillot, presently to appear in the Avenue de la Grande Armée. The Tear column takes the lower turn, and in little less than half an hour is procecding past the Arc de Triomphe. A BEAUTIFUL PLACE, Verily, it isa pretty place to look down upon, is this Longchamps. To the right are the trim villas on the height of St. Cloud, stretching toward Ver- sailles. Before us, on the left, frowns Mont Valérien, always the most prominent landmark around Paris. Behind, the Seine flows tranquilly, and thousands of people are coming up from its banks. Many thought it would be a good plan to take the train to Suresne, and now probably find out their mistake. The large plain in front is black with people. It presents a curious sight this morning, the French soldiers who were on duty scattering themselves over it and with their knives cutting up the roots of everything that looked like making asalad. A soldier onan Eng- lish race course is almost a rarity, while here there are enough to hold Paris against the whole Ger. man Empire. On the Jawn there are innumerable chairs, all of them occupied by ladies, who look as if they were merely at a garden party. THE BETTING ELEMENT. The betting element is not allowed to be a nuisance in France, as it is in England, No betting is permitted in front of the stand. Those who wish to speculate must go to the rear, where all necessary accommodation is provided. We missed to a great extent the gayly painted Paria mutuel vans that used to throng the course on the farside. The Republic is becoming virtuous, and interdicts as much as possible ready fered a miliion francs for a ten years’ con- cession, but the temptation was resisted. The Grand Prix day is the only occasion on which the giants of the English betting fraternity visit France, and a sight they are for the gods. Occasionally they take the Frenchmen’s breath away by the tremen- dous offers they make. It is related that on one occasion, when Adolphe, a young member of the Jockey Club, accosted an English leviathan to back an outsider for the Grand Prix, and was offered 10,000 to 1,000,” which being explained to him, was 250,000f, to 25,000f., or $50,000 to $5,000, he bolted clean away from the course and went home and got under the bed, The French now favor the English way of betting very much—that is to say, all settle- ments to be made on the Monday after the race. The big English bookmakers, too, offer much better odds than the French ones, and things are made as pleasant for them as possible. . They had a fleld day at the Grand Hotel yesterday. The court yard looked something like Tattersall’s on the Monday before the Derby. Continental travellers were astonished at the strange sounds they heard, and to them “6 to 1 bar two” was indeed a mystery. The French horses of the present season were not generally considered good. En- guerrande, the winner of the French Oaks, and also the “dead heater” with Camellia forthe Eng- ish Oaks, was among the best. / THE WEATHER. The weather this morning was blustering and threatened rain, but at noon it cleared and then came ont warm and pleasant. Approaching one o'clock the crowd poured along the Champs Elys¢es. and the Bois de Boulogne. Elegant equipages and superb four-in-hands, filled with beautiful women in elegant toilettes, made their way toward Long- | champs. “PUR LARGE AND DISTINGUISHED ATTENDANCE. At half-past one o'clock the tribunes and course and the whole field presented a grand and animated appearance, reminding one of the best days of the Second Empire. Marshal MacMahon and Mme. MacMahon and suite entered the Imperial Tribune at half-past two o'clock, but their appearance elicited no demonstration. The Ambassador from Morocco accompanied them and formed a conspicu- ous figure amid the crowd of ladies, The Ambassa- dor's suite occupied seats on the roofs of the tri- bune, their picturesque costumes contributing great variety to the scene, : Perfect order was maintained on the racecourse, and no accidents occurred during the day notwith- standing the great crowds that were present. THE STARTERS. Of the two hundred and sixty-two nominations eleven came to the post. These were:—M. Alex- ander Baltazzi’s bay colt Kisber; M. A. Lupin's bay filly Enguerrande; M. Edward Fould's chestnut filly Mondaine; M. P. Aumont’s bay filly Basquine; Baron A. de Rothschild's chesnut colt Kilt; Duke of Hamil- ton’s bay colt Wild Tommy; Count F. de Lagrange’s chestnut colt Braconnier and his chestnut filly Camelia; M. Moreau-Chasion’s brown colt Ashantee; | Count F. de Lagrange’s bay colt Bijou, and M. Edward Fould’s bay colt Soussarin. When the horses came on the course for the race their appearance was greeted with cries of admira- tion, Kisber and Maidment, his jockey, being warmly applanded. Tun BETTING. Just before the start the rates ruled 5 to 1 against Kisber, 10 to1 against Kilt and Mondaine and 20 to 1 against Enguerrande, Braconnier and Camelia. THE RACE The horses were sent away on equitable terms, and after running about a mile Kisber drew out from ail the rest and won im acommon canter by four lengths, Enguerrande finished second, Mon- daine third, Basquine fourth, Kilt fiith, Wild Tommy sixth, Braconnicr seventh, Camelia eighth, Ashantee ninth, Bijou tenth and Soussarin eleventh.

MUSICAL AND DRAMATIC NOTES. Mrs, Herman Vezin, the celobrated London actress, will visit Australia this year, Mme. Pauline Lucca can now sign herself hof opern- sangerin when sho is in Vienna, A now play, “Corinne,” by Mr. Robert Buchanan, will bo produced this month at the London Lyceum. The London public has come to look upon Rubin- stein, the pianist, asa “lion” of the largest size and most impressive aspect, Herr Barth, of Berlin, failed at the last concert of the London Phttharmonic Society. He selected Henseit’s great piano concerto, and it proved too much for him. ‘The Pall Mall Gazette, of London, aptly remarks:— “When stich singing as comes from the mouth of Mme, Patti is heard the most hardened Wagnerian must be Jed to reflect. For if the Wagnerian system wero established on the operatic stage, to the exclusion of ull others, there would be no place for such vocalization as Patti’s.’’ We trust that the day will never come when melody shall be dethroned from the position of suprem- acy it has always held in Italian opera from any false plea of dramatic necessity. A Paris correspondent thus speaks of the composer of the new opera, “Dimitri,” recently produced atthe Opéra National Lyrique:—‘That M. Joncidres has borrowed ‘the stylo and character of the tolk- songs of Muscovy’ lam not only unprepared to deny, but I am even ready to assert that his borrowing has not ended there. He has been as ready to borrow as ever was Sultan, Khodive or South American Republic, Meyerbecr, Verdi and Gounod, not forgetting R. Wag- ner himself—despite the asseverations contained in the remarks I have quoted—are there to prove ths fact, Whatever may be the case In days to come, at present M. Jonciéres permits memory to act too fre- quently as a substitute for fancy,”” THK BAIREUTH FESTIVAL. A correspondent writing from Baircuth gives tho following imformation regarding the town and the Wagner festival, which takes place in August:—Now that the Baireuth festival is approaching some in- formation about the accommodations which visitors may expect to find there may be of interest. All the seats for the first representation are taken, and very {ow tor the second and third representations are to be had. The town of Baireuth possesses four hotels, Zum Reichsadler, Zur Sonne, Zum Anker, Zum Schwarger Ross, The two former are the be: Persons who would prefer to live in private houses should address Pohce Officer Ulrich, Several new restaurants will be opened, two of them being close to the Niebelung Theatre. Baireuth isa deliguttul, old-fashioned place, with many fine villas, and the surrouadings are as charming as can be found anywhere in Germany, The two parks, each distant about half an hour’s walk from the town, are little paradises in themselves, The Baireuth enterprise is now fully as- sured, Wagner has written to the musicians, and all his assistants in fact, that he is able to guaran- toe their gularies. The musicians will receive tucir raiirowt tare and a monthiy saary of sixty thalers, ‘The most prominent singers give iheir services gratis; the others demand very sinall remuneration iaced.

This unusual extension of the period of winter exile trom their homes, to which invalids were compelled to submit, was due to the fact that, while cold winds and snow storms prevailed all over Europe, Pau alone preserved the privileged temperature, the beneficent effects of which have been so earnestly and frequently proclaimed by the most learned members of the medical faculty. In France De. Louis, in England Dr, Taylor, and, muro recently stl, Dr. Cazenove de la Roche, have taken occasion to dwell upon its remarkable results iu the treatment oj certain classes of disease, I may state that in « period of four years the mortality among English Ameri is has not averaged more than one in sixty-five per um, and among persons a:- fected with lung diseases 1 in 160, There bas not been asingle death among children during that period, although several of them arrived here in a uchicate state oF health. But Paa is not morely a place suitadlo for the cure of | aflectiong of the throat and Jungs. It 1s aiso one of the Pleasantest winter resorts on the Continent for the heathy and jale, The moans of amusement are varied and weil sustained, anexceient pack of hounds ena- bles thove who are fond of fox nunting to follow the sport through one of the most diversified and pictur. esque regions imaginable, Independently of the two Tace meetings Which take place im Maren and April, anal at Which numerous and oftentimes popular horses ‘aro entered, steeplechases ure frequently organized oy the Socicte des Courses, Alternately with these sport. ing meetings polo, cricket, lawn tennis and Badminton assem! rge crowds of spectators in the fields sitn- ated just outside the town, For those whose age or health inclines them to less Active amusements there are the resources of the mili- tary music in the Place Henri IV., the theatre with an exeellent compuny and the concerts at tue Casino. The promenades are numerons, varied and agreeable, owing to the proximity of the Pyrenees, and the pabuic Jibrary is rich in well selected and vuluable works. There aro also several English and American book- stores where the most receut publications of the two courttrics are to be had. The hotels are | fortable and the public vehicles are’clean m price, The places of worship are numerous and members of the Reformed Church havo several retig- ions edifices of their own, In short, mothing is want- ing to render Pau agreeable to visitors of every class and condition. It bas even gota skating rink, which 18 frequented by the best soctety of the town. Next season promises to be an exeeptional one at Pan, Already, Uiropgh the ageney of the Union Syn- dicate, whieh occupies tMeelf with these niatters, a large auimber of in the town and several villas in tho environs ‘seeurea in ad- vance. It is expected that the season will be an ua- usually brilliant ong WASHINGTON. FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT, Wa surxatox, June 11, 1876, MR, CALDWELL’S CABLE DESPATCH—ITS AU- THENTICITY ESTABLISHED—RESPONSE TO THE BEFLECTIONS OF MR. TARBOX AND OTHERS ON HIS CHARACTER—WHO ARK MR. BLAINE'# PERSECUTORS ? The question of the authenticity of the cable despatch received by Proctor Knott and signed “Caldwell” bay- ing naturally excited very general interest, both from the fact of its having been wituheld so long from tho committee and the importance attached to it by Mr, Blaine, your correspondent waited upon Mr. D. B, Sickeis, who it was known bad for a long time held in- timate business relations with Mr. Caldwell and who is temporarily in this city, im anticipation of obtaining somo light on the subject, Upon being questioned Mr, Sickels said :— “1 do not know that there is any objection to my telling you all | know about the matter, As soon as [ learned tbat the question was raised as to the authen- ticity of the despatch verifying the statement of Col- onel Scott before the committee respecting the sale of Little Rock and Fort Smith bonds to him by Caldweil I cabled Mr, Caldwell apon the subject, and this morning [received the following reply :— Loxpox, Jane 9, 1876. [No. 67, Direct Cable, To Sickxeis, New York :— Cavled committee June 1 full explanation, CA WELL, “I may state to you that [ was formerly one ot the directors of the Little Rock and Fort Smith Company, and that at present | am Mr. Caldwell’s correspondent in this country. [do not wish to be involved in any manner in the controversies or disputes of politictang on either side; but as Mr, Tarbox and others have re- flected upon Mr. Caldwell’s honor ina public manner I deemed it not only just but necessary that the cable, although addressed to me privately, should be given to the public, and you aro at liberty to make such use of these statements as you think proper, “Mr, Caldwell met with severe reverses financially in 1870, 1871 and 1872, while he was engaged tn the con- struction of the Little Rock and Fort Smith and other Southern roads, and had it not béen for the ¥ranco- Prussian war, which closed the foreign markets to his securities while bis agent was abroad, and subse quently the disastrous panic caused by the Chicazo tire, Lam quite certain that ne woulda have fully consum. mated all his plans and realized a largo amount ob money. “Mr, Caldwell was invited to Logdon by certain parties who were aware of his energy, business tact and ability, and he has since been engaged in railway con- struction there and in South America, I may add that the parties to whom he is most largely indebted in this country in connection with his railway projects hero are confident of his success abroad, and they have never withheld from him their confidence and support, “Of course you will understand that I have no sym- pathy with the wholesale condemnation of Mr, Knott or the unjust reflections upon Mr. Hunton, both of whom I bave found in my intercourse with them to be high-minded gentlemen, and, so far I as can judge, dis. posed to elicit only the trutu, If there has been any persecution of Mr, Blaine, as is alleged, It was inaugu- rated’ and conducted: by the members of his own mor i‘ GENERAL WASHINGTON DESPATCH.
