THE CONGREGATION OF SOVEREIGNS.
THE KING OF PRUSSIA AT THE TPILEEIES RECEP
TION OF THE GERMAN MONARCH BY TUB EH
TEROR AND EMPRESS OF FRANCE COUNT BIS
MARK IN THE ROYAL CORTEGE.
From Oalignani's Messenger, June 7.
The King of Prussia arrived yesterday In
Paris by the Northern Hallway at the hour
announced. All the oruamoutatlon of the
station was precisely the same as we described
It in our account of the Emperor of Russia's
arrival. About ten minutes before 4 tke Em
peror Napoleon appeared aud walked down the
line, accompanied by Prince Joachim Murat;
General Fleury, Grand Equerry; and Vice
Admiral Jui len de la Uravlere, Aid-de-Caiup
on service. Near his Majesty were also to be
seen Marshal Canrobert, Marshal Kegnault de
St. Jean d'Angely, Huron Haussmaun, Prefect
of the Seine, M. Pietrl, Prefect ot Police, Baron
James de Rothschild, M. Delebecque, and otner
directors of the Northern Company, A number
of Prussians of distinction, Including some
ladies, were seated near the saloon of reception.
At three minutes past four a flourish ol trum
pets announced the approach of the royal train,
and the moment after the band of the Chas
seurs de Viucennes the regiment on duty
struck up "God Save the Queen," which is also
used in Prussia as the national hymn.
The King, a moment alter, alighted Just where
the Emperor was standing, and the two sove
reigns shook bands warmly. The cortege then
advanced up the line, the King on the right.
Both monarchs were dressed as generals, and
each wore the Grand Cordon of the other's
order.
The Prince Roval of Prussia and Prince
Joachim Murat followed immediately after;
and then came a crowd of Prussian dignitaries,
Including Count de Blsmark, Count de Wean
ehlen, Secretary of Legation; Count de Peukler,
Grand Marshal of the Court; General Baron de
Molt lie, Chief of the Stall'; General Count de
Gollz, brother of the Prussian Ambassador at
Paris; General de Treskow, Ald-de-Camp Gene
ral to the King; Major Count de Lehondorlf and
Prince Badztwlll, Aides-de-camp, etc. The
King stopped short near the station, and shook
bands with several of the ladies.
'1 he moment after the court carriages drove up,
aim the King, the Emperor, the Prince Koyal,
and Prince Joachim entered the rst. a body of
lancers precedeJ, and one of the Cent Garde
followed their Majesties. Seven other carriages
followed, carrying the King's suite. The
Princess RoyBl of Prussia, who had accompa
nied her husband In the morning toComplegna
lo meet the King, as announced, afterwards
ent red an open carriage with three other ladies
and departed.
Kn.m tiie station the cortege reached the Tulle
rles by the Boulevard Magenta, Strasbourg, and
Hebastopol, the Rue de Rivoll, the Hue da
Louvre, the Courts Carree and Napoleon III,
and the Arc de Trlompne da Carrousel. Troops
were posted to form the line at the Palace, just
as had taken place for the reception of the CVar.
Although the weather was delightful, the crowd
was infinitely less numerous than at the other
grand arrival. Inside the station there was no
demonstration of feeling whatever; outside, as
the carriages started, there was some cheering;
but along 'the re st of the line very little mani
festation.. The same gala carriages were em
ployed as on the other occasion. .
At the Tuileries, the Empress, accompanied
by the Princess Mathllde, aud attended by her
suite, went to meet the King of Prussia, as on
tbe occasion of the arrival of the Emperor
Alexander, at the foot ot the grand siaircase.
Their Majesties then ascended to the Salon du
Premier Consul, where the imperial house
holds mingled with thatof the King of Prussia.
After the usual presentations were made, the
i mr,mr mud acted the King of Prussia to the
J apartments which bad been prepared for him
In the Pavilion Marson.

CELEBRATION AT THE NEW TOWN OF ARLINGTON
SPEECHES OF GOVERNOR BULLOCK AND OTHERS.
Boston June 17. In the new town of Arling
ton, formerly West Cambridge, there was also
quite a pompous celebration, oa account of the
change of name, at which a largo number of
Jrominent ofllclals were present. The 17lh of
une was chosen for the demonstration, in
order that the citizens might indulge in a flow
of patriotism, as that town, llko Charlestown,
was also the scene of memorable events in the
early days of tbe American Revolution.
Arlington is situated between Camoridge and
Lexlugton, and was one of the towns through
which Pltcairn's army passed in 1775, on their
way to encounter those "embattled farmers,"
who "fired the shot beard round tbe world." It
was called Menotomy In those days, subse
quently West Cambridge, and now Arlington,
aud Is one of the finest gardening towns about
Boston. The Inevitable salute and ringing of
bells were heard morning, noon and night,
requisites without which no Massachusetts cele
bration is considered complete. The proces
sion was under the command of Addison
Gnge.
There was quite a number of distinguished
gentlemen present on the occasion among
them Governor Bullock and the various mem
bers of his stall'; Senator Sumner, General
Banks, Hon. Alexander N. Rice. ex-Governor
Hawley, of Connecticut; General Foster, who
has recently been assigned to this military dis
trict; Admiral Rodgers, of the Charlestown
Navy Yard; and a crowd of Massachusetts
Major and Brigadier-Generals. At the grand
dinner the Governor, Senator Sumner, Richard
11, Dana, Jr., General Banks, General Foster,
and Admiral Rodgers made speeches. The
political gentlemen beat shy of politics, and
touched, as did the others, upon thoughts sug
gested by the situation of tbe town, it being
on the old route passed over by the British
during the flight from Lexington to Boston.
Tbe Governor in his speech christened the new
town.
During the exercises in the lent a heavy rain
storm came on. This interfered a little with
the proceedings, but did not succeed in post
poning the regatta, in which the Harvard
crews pulled. The regatta took place at about
0 o'clock, and consisted of two races. In the
first the Junior Second boat of 1868, and the
Freshmen Second boat of lb'70, lapstreaks and
slx-oared, pulled. The course was a mile and a
half, and the prizes six silver cups. The Juniors
won the race by two seconds. Their time was
nine minutes and eight seconds. The second
race was between tbe shells of the Fresh
men class boat of 1870 and the Scientific School,
over the same course, and for six silver goblets.
The boat of the Freshmen was a little out of
repair.' This race the Sclentlfics won, their
time being eight mlnntesand forty-two seconds,
while that of the Freshmen, was nine minutes
and fifteen seconds.

FIRBT ANNUAL REGATTA OF TUB BOSTON YACHT
CLUB THREE DIFFERENT CLASSES OF YACHTS
COMPLETE A RAINY DAY AND NO WIND THE
SCHOONER SADIE, THE CLYTIE, AND SLOOP FANNY
T1US WINNERS.
Boston. June 1712 o'clock P. M. The first
annual regatta of the newly organized Bos to i
Yacht Club was one of tbe 17th, of June Inci
dents here to-day. Among those deeply inte
rested in aquatic sports it was, of course, tbe
chief event of the day, and those chiefly in
terested in aquatics assembled la great num
bers to look upon the flying yachts as they con
tested for the pending prizes.
There was a heavy fog all the day long; and a
threatened shower during the f irenoou. The
threats were partially ful tilled during tbe latter
part of the day, whenthe sport would, under.oth
er circumstances, have been at its might.. There
was also an absence of wind, and various other
drawbacks of a minor nature, which the com
peting yachts bad to contend against; but, not
withstanding all these mishaps, the affair may
be, and will bo, pronounced u success, when it
is considered that yachting Is a new but yet
contagious epidemio hereabouts.
Tbe regatta to-day was among yachts of three
dili'orent classes; the first class comprising all
yach is measuring thirty-eight feet and upwards,
the second comprising all measuring twenty
six feet and less than thirty-eight, and the third
comprising all measuring eighteen feet and
under twenty-six, the measurement being the
length on the water line added to one-third the
ciltlerence between that and the length over all
aft of stern.
'J he Hrst-clas yachts 'passed over a course of
twenty-two miles, aud their rospectlve Billing

ADDHESS OF FRANCIS VINTON, S. T. D.
Young Gentlemen of tbe Graduating Class aud
Corps of Cadoln ot the United blutes Military
Academy: We are gathered touetber on an occasloi
ot peculiar interest and sacreduess. Tbe transition
from youtn to tbe urgencies of manhood Is always
a crisis in which "the mind looks afore and after"
wllb h( pes and mrmories. There Is a kind of
solemnity in this tour. You remember wllb what
elation yon have anticipated the landed Joys of the
time of your graduation, and now that tbe moment Is
come, you are saddened aud subdued, and you will
remember this parting, when you are grown older,
with reflections caught from tbe vicissitudes ot
life, In which the Images of your companions and
your personal experiences will ngalu take the shapes
of shadows. In ibis present Interval ot Inteimecon
scii usi ens tbe paht aud tbe future may be burled. But
both will have a resurrection so soon as this critical
living hour Is dead. What, then, does tbe past re
veal? It tells of ucademlc Inslructiou and of know
ledge, amid scenes both historic and mutiniliceut.
Here,) on the spot consecrated by tbe traditions ot
tbe Kevolutlou, our fathers lived. Here tbe
black crime ot treuson was uumnsked
and cursed lorever. Here the Virtues of patriotism,
honor, honesty, aud truth, have been Inculcated and
eviuced. Yonder bills have echoed buck no sound but
that of loyalty aud law. The laws ot God, the laws of
man, the lvs In physical nature, and lu tbe human
conscience and in organic society have been thu
themes or Instruction and of learning. And yet a bet
ter discipline bas been conspicuously enjoined, en
forced, and practised tbe discipline ol self-control. It
It be true that be who rules himself Is nobler than ha
who lakes a city, then is the stlf-dlscipllne ot this
military education the mightiest achievement which
you have accomplished, the most uselul power which
you have acquired, tbe nest acknowledgment of your
country's lavor which you in gratitude can bestow on
society. our example of loyalty to the state, to the
laws, and to God will be a guerdon to our country
which will repuy ber foryourtralulug ather expense.
tome persons have argued that loyalty is not com
patible wltb a lree republican government, . but is
confined to the allegiance due lo a person represent
ing tbe majesty ol the throne. But a better ethics
aud a better definition of the cardinal virtue is de
rived Irom tbe etymology of loyally It Is allegiance
to the sovereign law, anil the sovereign law has its
embodiment and Its throne In tbe Constitution of the
nation. To ibis augiiht, imperial sovereign you are
sworn supporters. The oath calhug God lo witness
and to record your faithfulness, has bound you by all
tbe bonds ot earth to heaven, to be loyal unto death
to tbe Constitution of the United Hiates.
This occasion, therefore, when you have received
your diplomas ot academic excellence, recommend
ing you lor commissions in tbe army, aud Introducing
you to Ibe awful sanctions of tbe oath. Is a crisis ot
peculiar saciedness; being (be point of Hie on which
tbe soul poises itself In august consciousness ot duty,
sustained by the wings or memory and bope. In your
personal history this hour shall be tiKiialled by Its
conceptions ol the events of tbe past with the pur
poses of Ibe future ot your days. 1 tie circumstances
of this occasion are specially wortby of record and
remembrance. These diplomas of your academic
superiors nave been presented to you by tbe General
of tbe army. lie is come here for this grucious minis
try, to dlgulfy and lo adorn the ceremony.
The giving ol the diplomas to tbe graduating class
bas heretofore been a s'mple thing, unaccompanied
by any token of Ibe supreme value which such testi
monials ought to poesess. bometlmes they bave
been Issued sometimes called fur. Tbe continuous
ceremonies ol the military course seem to have
collapsed all at once lu tbe crowning event at the end
of tbe cfcdel's career. But to-day be who is tbe only
man In these United Stales tbe man whom the old
est soldier characterizes as tbe best soldier of the
age the man whom the nation delights to honor for
bis valor comes In sweet courtesy to present these
diplomas lo the graduating cadets. From tbe tower
ing height of General lie looks down and looks back
to tbe corps of cadets whence his own starllugpjst
lo renown is fixed.
Cadets of lbW, General Grant Intends to to you
honor, as well as to evince his estimation of a diploma
from West 1'oiut, by bis presence and his participa
tion in this Important transaction. Yon are honored,
furthermore, by tbe presence here to-duy ot ibe In-spector-Geneiul
of tbe army, who Is also tbe Impector
oi tne United (States Military Academy, lie Illus
trates bis high ollice by tender solicitude In tbe
welf.re of the cadets. His presence recalls vividly lo
my memory of consciousness tbe earlier years
w hen we wvie cadets together. You may rejulca lu
him, your special chief, as tne exemplar for your imi
tation ot the cardinal qunlu.es of the soldier ana tbe
gentleman.
w hen you are as old as we, may It be your fortunate
prhlloxe to bestow tbe tribute of respect and love to
one another, as my heart spontaneously accords to
my loimer comrade. Inspector-General burlver. And
I will call to my ruiud another propitious circum
stance. This day Ib tbe anuiversary of the battle of
Hunker Hill. It Is tbe historic hour ot the birth
throes of the natlou. The record ol Hunker liiU is
graven on tbe rock at tbe landing of this post. It is
the first inscription which you see and the last which
meets your eyes. This day proved that men deter
mined to be free and Independent could match aud
master the mighty power of organized armies through
the mightier energy of unconquerable patriotism.
'We accept the auspicious omen as Inculcating In you
the spirit of youi fathers to fortitude under adversity,
In courage amid dangers, and in piety after victory.
1 he circumstances ot this occasion are furthermore
significant by the presence of the Board of Visitors,
selected by the President of the United 8tates to come

Silence that was painful marked the delivery of

"When shall we meet atrald,

The question comes with peculiar force, but It an

arrested with. Tbe occasion is, ludeed, sad. Almost
everybody cried; bright eyes unused to shed te.irs
were wet; aud that testified more eloquently than
words their feelings of sadness. At seven o'clock tbe

TIIE COllIELL MURDER.
BRIDGET DCROAJt TO BE HANGED ADGUST 30.
Nkw BarNswiCK, N. J., June 17. Bridget I urcan,
who was convicted recently ot the muroer of Mrs.
Mary Kllen Cork II. at Newmarket. N. J., wss brought
before the Court of Oyer and Terminer at this place,
ibis morning, to receive her seulence. The Court
room was densely crowded. The prisoner, wheti she
first entered the Court, gave no evidence of emotion,
but she did not smile, aa she continually did during
her trial. Judge Vredenburgb, and Associate Jusllce-i
Decker, Brown, and Cooke were on the bench.
Soon after lu A. M. District Attorney Hubert arose
and moved Unit the sentence of the Court be pro
nounced against Bridget Durgan, who had been found
guilty of murder lu the first degree.
Judge Vredenburgb Bridget Durgan, stand up.
Bridget arose, and looked arouud with apparent
composure.
Judge Vredenburgb - You were Indicted In April
lost lor tbe murder of Mrs. Mary Kllen Corlell on the
26th of February, iei7. On tbe 81st of May loat you
were convicted ot tbe murder, and tbe jury desig
nated by their verdict tbat it was of the hint degree.
Upon that crime the law Inflicts me penally ot deatn.
Have you auytblug to say why the sentence of death
Bhould not be pronounced ujson you 7
Mr. J. H. Luu pp. ot counsel for tbe prisoner, replied
that she had nothing to say. lie proceeded to argue
that tbe case should be reviewed by the Supreme
Court. Much irrelevant testimony, he said, had been
admitted during the examination under the sunction
of the Court.
Mr. Leupp also claimed that the Court had argued
the case Improperly and unlawlully against the pri
soner, and had thereby Induced the verdict. He ex
amined at length the Judge's charge, aud insisted that
the sentence should be suspeuded until the case could
be taken before the Supreme Court.
Mr. G. II. Adilun followed in a long argument In
favor of the motion ou behalf of the prisoner. Lie
said tbat when tbe counsel for the defense undertook
the case they did so with the intention of bringing all
their zeal to bear In her defense. He claimed that
the Court did wrong in endeavoring to assign a
motive for the murder on tbe part of the prisoner,
when no motive bad been shown by the prosecution.
Judge Vredenburgb, alter consulting with the asso
ciate Justices, s id the Court refused the motion tor
a new trial, and also refused to lurtber postpone tbe
sentence.
Tbe Judge now addressed Bridget Durgan by name.
Bhe arose. The Judge said: The Court repeats the
question Have you anything to say why the sentence
of tbe law should not now be pronounced upon you ?
You can tell it through your counsel if you bave any
thing lo say.
Bildget looked around the court-room several
tinits, as if expecting some one, aud then sat
down and spoke to her counsel, who oouiullcd with
her.
Mr. Adrian then said Brlduet bad requested htm
to say tbat she never killed Mrs. Corlell, und that
there was a person wbo Is now at large who promised
to relieve ber from the charge made against her.
That person Is now at Iart,-e; but she has always said
from the first, as now, thai she never Imbrued her
hands In Ibe blood of Mrs. Corlell, and that she is
entirely Innocent of the charge.
Judge Vredeuburg addressed the prisoner In effect
as follows:
Bridget Durgan: The Court finding nothing in what
you bave sa d tbrough your counsel to preveut It
from proceeding 10 sentence you. They are yet will
ing tbat you should be permitted 10 say anything
further that you may bave to say personally.
The prisoner made no response.
Tbe Judge conliuned: If you bave nothing to say,
there is nothing In what your counsel says to cause
lurtber postponement ot your lenience. You have
bad, during these proceedings, tbe benefit of very
able aud experienced counsel, wbo with untiring real
and Industry bave labored In your cause, They bave
taken care, by all unrigkt meaus, that no Improper
Inlerence should be drawn from the facts In the evi
dence against you, and tbat all facts comlDg to their
knowledge which could operate in your favor should
be put In evidence and placed In their true relations
to ibe cause. The Jury have listened lo theevideuce
with undivided altrutlon, with every disposition to
f ive you tbe benefit of any reasonable doubt, aud to
ean.as far as duty would permit, to the side of mercy.
Tbe Court tried tbe cause with a determination that
nothing should be permitted to operate against you
except the strength of the evidence alone. Tbe ver
dict testifies that the evidence left no doubt on the
mluds of the Jury that you were a participant In thl
homicide, and that )ou we-e guilty therein of
malicious, wlllul, deliberate, aud premeditated mur
der. In Ibis finding of tbe Jury this Court unani
mously concur, and that the homicide was attended
by circumstances of cruelty and horror not perhaps
exceeded, considering your Bex, in the history of
crime.
The Judge proceedod to recite at length the circutn
nnces of the murder, drawlnir a vivid ulcture of
the scene lu which Mrs. Corlell lost her life, and
then continued as follows: Such. Bridget Durgan.

w bleb are known. If tbe Inferences are not correct,
you can tell us where tbey are wrong. You say you
know, but you will not tell. 11 anything is assumed
too strongly against you. It Is your own fault. I have
not gone Into this detail to give you pain, or to recite
agalu those horrors In tbe public ear, but tbat It
may be seen under what circumstances It Is that
the law In this Instance consigns a woman lo the
scaffold. I bave one more rtsuark to make. Do not
put oil' your preparations for a future world under
any hopts that mercy maybe shown lu this. You
may be undeceived loo late. Kelluve from suspicion
those whom you have wrongly accused, Dlscloso
those, If any, who have part lei paled lu this murder,
so that they may be held to their legal responsibili
ties. But, oh! as you value your soul's salvation,
accuse not the Innocent. There remains for the
Court only to pronounce upon you the sentence of the
law, which Is. aud this Court doth uore order, con
sider and judge that you, Bridget Durgan. be taken
bence 10 the pluce whence you come, and there be
kept In strict aud safe custody until Friday, the 80tu
day of August, lsii7, aud that then you be taken to the

THE TRIAL OF JOHW H. SURRATT.
Proceedings To-day,
Washington. June 18. The trial of John II.
Burratt was resumed this morning In tbe
Criminal Court, before Judge Fisher. TheCourt
was opened at fifteen minutes past 10 o'clock,
the Jurors, the prisoner, and tbe counsel on
both sides being present. The prisoner's bro
ther, Isacc Surratt, occupied a seat by his side.
Bergeant Joseph W. Uye was recalled to the
Witness stand.
Mr. I'ierrepont said that, when the Court
ad loomed yesterday, a question had been
asked, but was objected to and withdrawn, and
he now desired to ask the question in form, and
reserve our objection for the defense.
The witness was then asked the question by
Mr. Plerrepont as to what occurred ou the way
out II street after the witness and his compa
nion, Cooper, started for Camp Barry, after tbey
had received information of the assassination
of the President?
Mr. Bradley objected, unless the prosecution
first stated what the connection of this matter
was with the prisoner, or what they expected
to prove.
Mr. Plerrepont said the prosecution would
offer no evidence that they could not connect
with tbe prisoner. They purposed to prove that
the house referred to in yesterday's question
was Mrs. Burma's house, that John Burratt had
lettita few moments previously, and tbat it
was Mrs. Burratt who asked the question of the
witness.
Mr. Bradley said Mrs. Surratt was not here to
answer.
Mr. Plerrepont Nell her is Booth.
Mr. Bradley Booth was not there at the time.
The Court decided to admit the answer, and
said be would rule it out if it did not connect
the prisoner with the assassination,
Mr. Bradley noted an exception.
Tbe witness then resumed his answer to the
question, as follows: As we passed out II street
a woman raised the window of a house, and
asked what was wrong down town. I told ber
that President Lincoln had been shot. She
asked wbo had done it. I told her Booth. Bhe
asked how I knew tbat, and I told her a man
who knew him saw him. On that night the
moon was light enough to see objects distinctly.
I believe the moon was up, but I cannot say if it
was at tbe full. The woman was an elderly
lady, but I could not say whether she was stout
or otherwise, but she resembled tbe lady, Mrs.
Burratt, who was tried nt the Arsenal. I have
seen the house since, and it is No. 511 II street.
The house is on tbe right hand side of the street
oing towards Camp Barry. The witness then
escribed the house. It was known as the Bur
ratt House. Tbe woman asked questions in an
ordinary tone, but the witness does not recol
lect tbat the woman was much excited. When
the witness saw Booth, Burratt, and the other
party at the theatre, neither of them wero dis
guised. Cross-examined by Mr. Merrick Tbe witness Is
twenty-three years of age, aud testified that be was
from Washington county, Pa., where he resided before
tbe war, going to school and working at his trade as
a printer; he left Washington. pa u 181, and entered
the army In 18(12: at Camp Barry the witness was
first sergeant of bis company; during his absence the
next sergeant In line called tbe roll.
Tbe witness did not bave a pa-ss on tbe night of the
assassination, be bad formerly been Quartermaster
bergeant of bis company, and had a past while in that
position, butfce bad no right to use It as first Sor
geaiit. in answer to questions about being In town without
leave that night, tbe witness said tbat nearly all tbe
camp was in town to witness the torchlight proces
sion; it was a frequent occurrence for him to come to
town, but he admitted that, by doing so, be did not
altogether Justify the confidence which the captain of
the company reposed in him. Tbe witness repeated
the evidence given yesterday relative to the position
be occupied silting on tbe plauks In front of tbe
theatre.
Q. To whom did you first communicate what you
saw that night T A. To my fu ber.
Q. To whom next T a. Well, lo no one In partlcu,
lnr; I mentioned my suspicions to Sergeuxt Cooper
that night.
il. Who did you first tell what you could prove oa
this subject? A. I told no one what I could prove: I
ocly told what I had seen; tbe first time I knew that
my evidence was known I was summoned to
appear here to testify at the assassination conspiracy;
wben I arrived In Washington I went first to
the Provost Marshal's Ollice, anil was then taken to
the Old Capitol to see It 1 could identity the man
mentioned as a vlllaluous-looklng man. At the Pro
vest Marshal's Ollice I was questioned by the officer
who had a right to questlou me.
