“THE MERCHANT’ BANULET —_——_——___. A Rare Gatheting of Solid Men at Delmonico’s, PRESIDENT HAYES’ SPEECH. Secretary Evarts on the Commerce of the Nation “THE CIVIL SERVICE. General Sherman in Defence of the Army. ‘There havo been few occasions in the history of the Now York Chamber of Commerce when clustering around {ts apnual banquet were so muny illustrions associations and such a gathering of representative men as assembled at DVelmonico’s Inst night to celebrate the one hudred and ninth anniver. sary of its organization. Firat it wus a rare {f pot an isolated imetdent in the caccer of the Chamber that there was present tne Presidont of the Uoied States, three members of his Cabinet and the General in command of the urmics of the Union, and, secondiy, it was something to hear these gentlemen so goon atter the heat of a political campaign revealing, With no uncertain language, the plans and purposes of their administration, and using as thoir vehicle the financial, social aud pubiic influ- ence of a body so thoroughly potent and individual in its character, THE BANQUET, Tho banquet was in keeping with the well known reputation of the celebrated host by whom it was sup. plied, and nothing was loft neglected that could be required by the most exacting taste, The floral deco- rations were arranged under the directions of Mr, Pell, Secretary of the American Exotic and Botanic Company.

Among tho more elaborate candy work which adorned tho table of the President and invited guests were a tac-simuile of the Brooklyn Bridge, a clipper ship and the first train of steam cars that rode the railin America, About two bundred and filty persons were present, of whom the following are some of the prin- cipal churaoters:— THE GUESTS, Mr. Samuel D, Babcock presided, and on his right were seated His Exceliency Rutberford B.

ADDRESS OF SECRETARY RVARTS. Mr, Rvarts said that he did not know whether be was more proad to be present us one of the inviting party or a3 one of the inyited ynests. The toust to Which he was to respond, ‘Our Commercial Marine,” while it was full of faith and hope, was also dark with the sugyestion that the commerce of the country and its greatness and ery ha to be looked upon in the past hy such ® nation this should have occasion to lwment the decay ot its sips and decline in its commerce, he said, may well get us all thinking, Some reasons are more obseure. Why a nation that nh tho warlike power of people, rich in. the trade of its ferule fie so advanced in skill and invention, and so complete in the capacity of the labor of its. population; why a nation that produces food for many peopies and raw inaterial that makes up the woven fabries that clothe halt the people of the world; why a nation that adds to nearly all other ‘sources of Luma wealth the imines and the dsheries; | Way a ‘uation that - boasts in its products | the two precious metals, silver and gola, which ia all commercial xges and in all commergial countries, even, are the inoney of the world, the joint servants of its commerce, the substance of ull that is promised by every form of taith, every commercial due that is i obvious, some is so strony 80 to serve Jor money or for credit—silver, ac- ceptable ty. ite “nations of | the Hast; gold, more favored by the nations of the West | and ourcouniry, the great producer of the (wo, with | one face for te commerce aguinst Europo and another over against Asia—wby sach u pation should find its commerce lunguish and its tlag desert the seas may that time came the great agony of our civil war and the cruel blows that foreign interests struck apon the nation in the time of its distress, These and the Tesentments bays been closed, Them there came a period of gullenness, but pow ali thie 1s ended, and from one end of this country to the other there is a greater community of purpose, a greater reverence for the great institution which has survived all its perils, and a great respect for the ration in all its purts that presents now but one face of contentment and hope from one end to the other, (Applause.) And now, whut cun keep down the commerce of such a nation, with such resources and with such unanimity and sirength of patriotic harmony? Nothing but bad laws badly administerod. Wise laws and their faithtul execution seems to me all that is needed to develop in concording harmony all the great forces of this nation in-their commerce on the seas, (Applauee.) Fortunately, gentiemen, this question of goyerument and the province of govern. ment over foreign commerce is the ono sub- ject upon which there never has been SLY controversy between federal and State rights und powors, The whole foreign intercourse oi this coantry—-whother in war by its hostilities or in peace by it} commerce—tho whole supremacy of the stupping wnd navigation bas reposed entirely in the conytitution of the United States, whore it was firmly imbedded vy the patriotism und under the sad experience of our ancestors, Whatever may nave | divided parties im tue past, whatever shall continuo to divide them in te suture, our foreign commerce is in the bands of the general government. And now, gentlemen, our Mag to be kept upon,the seas must have ships at Whore masthvads it may fly (ap plause), and tie ships to keep the seus with prodt must bave cargoes to carry, and if we have a great deal wo give and a great deal to soll to foreign nations we must, be willing to take a great deal trom them and buy agreat deal mm return, (Applause. ) Commerce is not-a Devevolent enterprise. (Laughter.) It hus been sometimes stigmatized as seliish. It a, perbups, Ube most hberal form in which enterprise ani iutercst combine for private aud for public benefit, Tariffs must be simple. (Cheers.) Datics must be low. The merchanta mast not be tho prey of entun- glng laws—(upplause)—or of adventurous execu- tion of the laws. And thon the industries at home—onless we are willing to put oursel in the position of dealing witl ‘com advanced portions of the globe. (Appluuse,) All these are problems requiring intelligence, requiring good faith and mutual concession to the definite forms in which onr products are to be pressed into the service of commerce and to fl! as cargoes the ships at whose mastheads our flag is to ly. (Applause.) ‘Tho state of our country demands a speedy restorauon ofour commerce. The) steady and Getinite and sy: tematic attention of the government to all that con- to this result necessury. Wo must yps either by buying or by building them. said that if © man were to sit in the morning to determine which jeg of his trowsers he would pull on first he would never be ready ior the street, and no ships will be ready to carry our flag nniess we procure them either by buy- ing or. by building, and if by both I suppose you will have more ships, A great deal bas been dove in the past, and a great deal more may be done in shaping that form of foreign commerce that fails within the province of diplomacy and comes to some extent under the supervision of our consuls spread throughout the workt by making these intelligent, active, competent and carnest co-operatives with the industries of our manufacturers and the zeal of com- merce and the wisdom of our laws in regulating, advancing. aud disseminating our commercial intercourse, All those methods involve a cer- fain sacrifice and departure from other desired objects or other prevaleut motives in advancing the public service. It 18 for the people of this country to determine whether they preter politics in the por- | sonal ambitions of the citizens to the personal awbi- | Hens to politics in the larger sense of the wise government, of a great and voble and gevorous people (Applause.) Wiiehever the people of this conniry prefer, it er are Steady and faithful to their preference, they will have. But in the constitution of society, where the people in tocir active, energetic demonstration are the very breath and the life of their government, the peopie’s purpose, the people’s adhesions, the people's tidelity anc the people's sagucity are to attach themselves us the working power of improved and purer govern- me: mmerce to Literature an?

Lewis Clark, the President of tho Louisville Jockey Club, and the writer were ont riding the other | day, and had a jong and iuteresting talk over the “erby,” ‘Yen Procek-Aristides” event, &o “Colonel Chirk,” said I, “have you avy objections to giving your idezs on tho Derby aad the races general!” “Noue whatever; but! give only an opinion; and, betting nothing, owning no interest in any thoroughbreds, { look and jadge caim! “Are you sutistied with the prospects for the spring races?” “Perfoetly; and tho deavoring to induce ne i some tow murplots are en- trendaice, yet, the thor- oughbre:t belug one of our greatest products, the mnl- titade will easily cémpretend that Loalsyille’s tne terest is in having the extibition oF product here, and will ove and all attend the Derby.” “What do you thiuk of the Counci?s action in mak- day?" y [live in acity where the muniel- slaty the bebehits derived trom ! { “Lam proud to pal authoritics ap; euty.”” “What number of horses do you expect to have?” “We bave stabling tor 200 horses, and will bo cum- polled to nse sume ot the Gre 3 nt to our own, avd our Sceretar: reserve stables, and air have arrived and are prepari tests. ’? “What 1s your opinion of the Derby this year?” “Lo name the Winner among so many good colts is what ‘no fellow could fina out,’ but Leovard, Baden Baden, Vera Cruz and McWiurter comprise a quarcet from which the lucky one may be taken, but the dark division is so strong that it mast not be overlooked, ’” “How about the race between Yen Broeck and Aristides?" “I think 1 both horses come to the post we will bave the grandest contest ever seen in America, ‘en broeck nd Aristides certainly head the turf in this oountry, t Fegard Aristides us one of the tnstost horses thut ever galloped, aud len Brocck’s tour-mile race has demon- strated that he's equally as flect, as be ran his widdie two miles in $:32', and Inst three in 5:23--a feat un- paralleled in the aunals of the turf, Both have shown hat they can xo 2)4 miles, and both will make the wee hot; and a good day and track Oid Timo will alter | the record for this distance, Ten Broeck’s legs are Perfect, and bis condition excellgnt, and 1 am assured that Aristides is in capital trim and never looked better, So thus tar overything looks promising ”” Vhich do you think will win 7? “Only the result of the race can answer that ques- ton, 1 regard it us the moet evenly matched race ever’ made on the turf”? “lave you any oljection to stating the origin of the Tep Brovck and Aristides race”? “{ had heard pumerous stories about the desire of the two owners to have a, race, and when something definite was reported 1 jumped on the cats, saw Harper and McGrath, and bad the artiefos of agree ment signed, scaled and delivered the game day, ‘fhe | papers have spoken of my cnterpriso 0 Kindly that I | really feel as it 1 had done.some good to the com. mnonity.”” “You have seeu Harper and McGrath; bow do thoy feol about ihe matter?” ‘Horsemen are very much like cival beauties, and though the irish Princo says Aristides was never in Detter trim the ‘EKend to eend’ gentleman says Ten Broeck can beat the world, and certainly Aristides must be included,” “Will you have many Eastern people!” “tne indicutions are that more persovs from that gection will be preseut than ever known herctotore. ’? “Wal muoy Kontucky borses go ust this your?’ as" a tew cracks that tbey think can win.

What shapo the question of apportionment may Anully take, whether a bill. will puss this segsion or not, is provlematioul, Neither side appears to bo ine clued to yield—so that what the ultitbate representas tion of New York and Kinge in the Legislature will be is ott uncertain, TINAERING WITH BDUCATION, Mr. Woodin’s vill relative to public lustruction tn the city of New York provides as fullows: Section 1 directs the Bourd of Supervisors to cause (0 be raised annuaily by tax a sum of money equal to the amount contained in the notice of the State Superintendent sof Public Instruction to the Clerk of the county of New York for the support and eucouragement ot the common sch ools therein, Soction 2 maker i: the duty of the Bourd of Educa. tivn, on or before tho 15th of October in each year, to report to the Bourd of Estimate and Apportionment an estimate of the amount over and above the sums specitied In the preceding section which will be te: quired for the purpose of ineeting the current anual | expenses of public instraction; but tho aggregate ceel the suin'of $14 for each pas tually attended the schools dure ing the preceding y ar ection 3 provides that after cach estimate tg made the Board of Estimate and Apportionimeut shall consider the same and return within Gfteon days any objecuions to or rectideations of said estimate.

After further the bill was ordered to a third reading, HAYES’ WLL DEPBATED, Dr. Hayes’ bill to change the nuime of the Beach Poeumatic funnel to the Broadway Undergrouna Railroad, and extend the charter throe years longer, was beaten in tue Assembly by a vote of 43 to 40, When it came up on the third reading Mr, Moller, of Westchester, moved to wmend by providing that the company file a bond with | the Conptroior of New York withio six months from the passage of the vill to the amount of £140,000, and failing to do so that they foreit their charter, Mr. Gilbert, chairman of the Ratiroad Commitide, spoke in opposition to the bill, aud Mr, Mitenell | foliowed, pronouncing it 4 fraud like the oid Arcade bill, which would have loosened the founda. tions of half the houses on Broadway. He protested against any road on Broadway, above or below ground. Spinola and Hayes supported the bill, but it was clear the friends of rapid transit, to which the bill is intinis cal, were on hand and understood the aim of the measure, ? Moller pointed out that the Boach Pacumatio any askod « very Cousiderable privilege ior which, they offer! nothing in return.
