The London Times contains a glowing ac
count of the visit of the civic, military, and
naval authorities of Portsmouth to Admiral

the most imposing ever witnessed in those
waters. The Major of Portsmouth. Invited the
Admiral to a banquet,-but he was obliged to
decline the honor, owing to his intended de

The Piince and rripcees of Wales had re
turned to England, the latter greatly improved
in health.
The King of Prussia has had a narrow escape
from losing his lite by a collision on the rail
road, he being a passenger In one of the cars.

mark (poke against the clause to the Army bill
conferring the right on the Commander-in-Chief
to increase the army as far as necessary;
but it was, nevertheless, adopted by a largo
majority. Count Bismark's argument was, that
such action on the part of the Commander-in-Chief
would always have a tendency to disturb
the peace not only of Germany, but of all
Enrope.

Washington, Oct. 29. The prize-Bent to day
be twet u Billy Parkinson and Tom Kelly, feather
weights, at 112 pounds, for $1000 a side,
attracted much attention in sporting circles, as
both the men had fought each oiher before, and
have exhibited no despicable skill and endur
ance. A large party of sporting men from New
York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore were in this
city yesterday, and expected to leave at a late
hour last night or early this morning for the
scene of the encounter, which, it was positively
stated, would not be jostj,oi.eo.
Notwithstanding the terrible wind and rain
stoim prevailing, efforts were made to secure a
special steamer. The plan fell through, how
ever, and it whs then propo ed to change the
wound to the Hunter (arm, where the Muller
Dillon fight was to linve occurred. This was
not agreed to by one of the principals, and some
dissension occurred, resulting in many of the
outside parties leaving the affair in disgust, ex
pecting that no Ilnht would occur. Finally, a
few of ihe initiated parties, who always succeed
in getting in at ihe death, learned that the
parties would go to Aquia ereek on the mail
boat, leaving hoit!y alter sunrise. At 6 o'clock,
the principals, sei ouds, backer, and a few inti
mate friends started for the boat, where they
louna qU,te a laree number already in waiting.
lue trip down the river was voted to be a
wire, as the bar was closed, aud whisky and
cigars were as .scarce us hen's teeth. The party
i land'nR. ixty miles below Wash
ington, about eleven o'clock, and the ring was
pitched as quickly as pofs ble. as the skies,'
Ari6 !eral'orar"y br ght, threatened
another rain storm. Ouster Juek. of Pniladel
phia, set the stake, aud during the mill offi
ciated as msster of' enremoniei. A lengthy
wrangle resulted in reeard to the choice of
referee, but the difficulty was Anally amicably
and taiWactorily ettled by the selection of W
J.I. Ilardicg, of New York.

but never shied his cantor Into a ring tn this

were blue and white, while those of his oppo

to which he can trare his nativity.
At 1230 time was called. The men stepped
smilingly into the ring. The following is a brief
summary of the rounds;
Hound I. The mm led off with heavy tandy blows.
Parkinson's left mauley doing splendid service,
Kt-lly finally sent a socktiologer at l arklnson's lace,
bringing the claret. They then clinched, and a heavy
tussle ensued, In which they fell attain! tho ropes and
pummelled each other savagely. Time was then
called and first blood was claimed and allowed fur
Jhelly. Time, two minutes.
Hound a. Parkinson rapped Kelly severely In Ihe
ace, rcelvln(r In return several sling' rs on the nose,

fina'ly knocked him down. Time, two minutes.
Pound 5. Parkinson let out his left heavily on
Kelly's nose and left eye, which optic was now in deep
mourning and nearly closed. Kelly finally weut to
grass to avoid a body blow. Time, two minutes
Pound 8. Parkinson advanced briskly to Kelly's
corner, that Individual coming up reluctantly. Some
heavy exchanges took place, ending In Kelly being
forced to bis own corner and being knocked down.
Ills nose and left eve were badly damaged la the
round. Time, two and a half mlutites.
Pound 7. Plows were freely eichanged, the spar
ring being lively, and Kelly getting it henvily on the
face, and finally going down to avoid further punish
ment. Time, one minute.
Pound 8. Parkinson came up as fresh as ever, but
was met by Kelly, and received a stinger on tbe nose.
They then closed and fell heavily, Kelly on top.
Time, one minute.
Hound 9. Kelly received a fearlnl blow In the face,
and returned the compliment In bandnome style. Tbe
blows then fell thick and feat, and Kelly dropped to
void punishment. Time, lh.ee and three quarter
minutes.
Pound 10. Kelly received a heavy upper cut, and
then gave and received freely, ending In Kelly going
down. Time, two minutes.
Pound 11. Kelly sent a terrific blow against Par
kinson's frontispiece, drawii g the claret freely. Par
kinson, disliking this treatment, gave the same, and,
after a clinch and several blows, Kelly again went
down. Time, two minutes.
Round 12. Parkinson gave two heavy blows on the
face with right and left In quick succession, and finally
sent his opponent to grass, lime, one minute aud

Time, one mlnu e.
Pound 14. There was a beautiful exhibition of fl-itlc
skill In the earlier uart of this rouud, followed oy a
clinch, when theory of ' Foul" was raised. It being
asserted by Kelly's seconds tbht he hud been gmged.
The lonl was allowed by the referee, whose
decision nearly gave rise to a general flight,
Parkinson's friends belna: particularly violent, as
they felt confident that their man would win
the money.
Neither of the parties i9 seriously damaged,
and tbe marks upon Parkinson's solid Mesh
were scarcely perceptible two hours after tue
fight.
The catch weight match between Tom Allen
and Bill Kyall did not come off as expected. The
next fight in this vicinity will be that between
Bowie and Sorrell, the colored pugilists, on the
12th ot November. y. Y. Uera d, '
TUE PRESIDENTIAL CONTEST.
The public withdrawal of Speaker Colf-ix
from the contest for the Republican nomina
tion leaves Mr.' Chase as the only competitor of
Giant; but those who think the Chief Justice
will make feeble fight may tiud themselves mis
taken. Already the nesro element Is being
moved in bis favor, and there Is probability of
his receiving considerable support from that
power in the South, since the blacks can con
trol the delegates to the Convention from all
the Southern States. Mr. Colfax's friends de
sign making him tbe nest Governor of Indiana,
though he prefers to remain in the House of
Representatives. Should he consent to run for
Governor, the Pemocrats will probably pit
against him Senator Hendricks, their ablest
and strongest man, and the contest then to fol
low will be an exciting one, as the eaodidites
would stump the State together. Mr. Hen
dricks was lormerly Commissioner of Patent-",
was candidate for Governor in 1600, but wa-t
defeated by Henry S. Lane, and was subse
quently elected benntorial colleague of his old
competitor, who had been sent lo the Senate
soon after bis election as Governor. Waafi. t'orr.

Tbe Chief Justice and tho Presidency
Vom the Cincinnati Commercial (CVmje organ), Oct. as.
Klsewbere will be found some of the editorials con
tained In our exchanges about an article which we
pnbllbhed on tbe ltilu Instant concerning the Presi
dential candidacy of Chief Justice Chase aud the Ohio
election. The editorials quoted show the perversity
with which a plain statement of truth may be met.
It will be remembered by those who have given any
attention to this matter that the commercial' article
In question did not assume to be authorized by the
Chief Justice, and that we stated explicitly, since its
merits have been extensively discussed, that we had
no knowledge of It whatever, and cannot Justly be
charged wlih tbe least responsibility for IU The
article opened and closed with admissions that the
rresiaeutiat Drosnecta or Mr. laiaie nau oeea un
favorably affected, If not forever extinguished, by the
Ohio election and concurrent volliical events, and
was not a plea for political preferment for him, but
for a correct understanding of his character by his
countrymen. Tbe Interest which all classes ofpeople
have shown in our unpretenuiug statement or fuels
proves that his political vitality has been underrated
both by his friends and foea, and that perhaps we
were too husty lu concluding It was Improbable be
would ever be railed to the t'hief Magistracy ot the
republic. In the articles that we reproduce this morn
ing are several specimens of the consummate mean
ness of misrepresentation. The Cincinnati UazrUe. as
serts that we have said that Mr. Chase was not lu favor
of the onranchiKlng amendment In Onio. We did
not say so. Be was In favor of it, and voted tor ft,
as all men know. We said that be did not urge Its
submission at this time, and our purpose lu savlug so
Was to show that he bad been wrongfully accused by
muse wno neio. mm resnonsioie tor pressiug auu in
sisting upon It. We said he recognised the difference
between ibefttate necessity of negro suffrage lu the
conauered Htatea of ibeMouthacd the common Jus
tice there was In negro sullrage In Ohio. Kvery in
telligent Pepuhlican who bus conquer-d his prejudices
so far as to favor negro sulli-age in any case recognizes
the same thing. The propriety of the entertainment
of au opinion as to Impeachment by the Culef Justice
is discussed. We have no knowledge that Mr. Chase
has ever expressed any opinion as to I he raerhsnf the
testimony taken with the view of Impeach'ng Presi
dent Johnson. Ashe uever Bawthat testimony, we
presume that he has not given any opinion on
lu We hnvereuson to believe that It is his opinion
and as to the propriety of the eitlertslu
Dient and expression of It we think there can
be no candid question that the threats whloti have
been made of seizing the President and thru-dlug
hi in out ol ollice. In advance or his trial, have done
mischlet. Ills hardly considered a breucli of the de
corum of the bench for a Judge 10 say Hint a prmnner
who may come belore him should have a fair trial,
and nut he executed belore conviction. The policy
which :we have declared was that ol Mr, C'taMe.of
impartial autlrage aud universal amnesty, excepting
only a few persons to be nsmed in the Month. Is that
which we believe to be truly cunservai lvej and we
use that expression now lu the sense tiial we em
ployed It when we said that In temperament and con
victions llr. Chase was "one of the most truly con
servative nien In the country." True conserva'lHiu
coustrves tbe peace ot the country, it would build
government upon foundations of Justice among wii
an the good will of the people. Iu America we do
notthitik It would disfranchise any large class. Those
who have affected to believe that in calling Mr. Chase
a truly conservative man we meant that he was con
servative as the Copperheads falsely use the term,
accuse their Intelligence or testily their mallgulty.
There are many who aee in the Presidential candi
dacy of the General of the Army no shadow of Itnpro
prietv. who are walling over the ambition of tue
Chief Justice to fill the highest otlioe within the
gilt of bis fullow-ctti'-ens. Here Is a Una shading
or senaiilveness, and a delicacy of discrimina
tion that we do not appreciate. Of the very
great usefulness of Mr. Chase, If he were made
Presideut, there Is no reaaonable doubt. That
Under Uis ftdiulnlalratioa tUere would be ooai-
msnd'ng capacity and winning personal worth and
dignity associated with the Presidential oltice, tha.
whii'h Mieasurethe time In tbe memorle, of men as
one ot public welfare and good repor. e are em ire y
convinced. If he Is not to have ihe opportunity of
rrenitst usefulness, he will serve his country faith
fully a be Is. and take his place at last among toe
meninranie men of the republic, who did not reach
the blghest place becaus" their names were loo early
associated with It, and they attained snon S'rength
and prominence as to combine against them the
Jealousies and the ambitions of smaller men. Aside
from all that, the only qu tlon really worth weighing
Is. what, for the country's sake, would be best T Tim
sltnstlon Is nave enough to rail for the most con
siderate public Judgment on that question.
General Duller' Repudiation Scheme.
The following article from the Milwaukee
Fentmrt, a Kepublicsn paper, is the most
forcible and pertinent exposure of General But
ler's repudiation scheme that we have seen:
"General Butler's scheme Is simply
this: To pay certain United States bonds called
6-20s (that is, made payable at any time after
five jears and within twenty years, at the
Option of the Government) In greenbacks.
This, he says, tbe Governtncut has a right to do,
be cause it did not not specify iu tnc baud that
it was to be pa d in coin, andbecause it hud
made greenbacks a legal-tenJer between Indi
vid unl citizens.
"kow let us analyze this legal-tender act. It
provides that If A owes 13 $100 lie shall be dis
charged from that obligation by paying B $10
in greenbacks or letral-tender notes. Very well:
whnt is a ereenbaok? It la simply a promise of
the Goverrmeut to pay the bearer so many dol
lars. The Legal-tenuer act, therefore, does not
consider B paid, for It provides that he shall
receive from the Government a promise to pay
him and let A eo free. A is discharged from his
obligation to B, but the Government is not. It
has simrlv taken the place of A and assumed his
responsibility to B. It B were paid by the trans
action the Government would owe him nothing,
and tbe greenbacks would be canselled, else B
would get his pay twice. But the Legal-tender act
does not ouce hint that the greenbacks are can- 1
celled In the operation, or that the Government
is not still bound to pay tbe promised dollars. On
the contrary, it is on the assumption that the Gov
ernment will pay them that B is compelled to take
the notes In lieu of his claim upon A. It is un
derstood all around that the Government cannot
pay the dollars and take up the greenbacks at
r resent. But Itis equally well understood that
he Government is bound to do so, aud that the
liuth of the notion is irrevocably pledged that it
will do It as soon as It ennj otherwise Treasury
notes would not be worth the paper they are
printed on, and tho Legal-tender act would be
merely an arbitrary enactment that all existing
creditors should go without their pay. The
greenbacks might be worth something until all
pre-existing debts were rubbed out by them:
thei.celorv.ard all credit upon their faith would
cease, aud they would be on a pr tvith Confede
rate notes, payable six mouths after uever.
"B may "procure a discharge from a like obli
gation to C by tendering him the same notes,
but C is not paid, for the same reasons th it B
was not when he received them from A. The
Goverument has assumed B's debt to U, just as
It did A's debt to B. B is now paid, because C
has advanced the tangible value for the Govern
ment and taken its oblieation to pay. Thus the
greenbacks may go on through the whole alpha
bet, no one being paid when he receives them,
but only when he parts) with them lor value
which the next man advances for the Govern
ment. The Legal-tender act, then, only en
forces a constant shiftine of obligation asalnst
individuals for obligations against the United
States.
"Now let us return and inquire what Is the
nature of a Five-twenty bond It is Bimply a
promise on the part of the United States to pay
the holder so many dollars. What is the mean
ing of the word 'dollar,' as used in the bonds?
General Butler says tbat it means 'greenbacks
a legal tender.' But what is a greenback a legal
tender? We will take one from our wallet and
read. Here it is: 'The United States will pay
the bearer one dollar at the Treasury in New
York.' That is the dollar which General Butler
save is promised in the bond not tbe .dollar in
the Treasury in New York, but the bit ot paper
which promises tbe dollar. A dollar, says
General Butler, is the promise of a dollar I And
he crtlis on this great nation to stand up before
the nations of the eatth and say to its creditors,
'That dollar I promised jou was only the pro
mise ol a dollar certainly a dollar is nothing
but tbe promise of a dollar; take it and be tone 1'
An individual who should attempt such a trick
would be called by every one a contemptible
sneak and scoundrel.
"It might be expected that tbe creHtor would
ak who is to pay this last promise? According
to General Butler's scheme this is never to bi
paid; it does not need to be paid; it Is its owii
patment. TLe Goverument has the right to
lulbl one promise with another, of the same
kind which is not to be ful ailed 1 If tbe second
promise is to be fulfilled, how Is it to be done?
If it is by a third promise of the same kind,
v. hat better Is that than the first or second pro-m'n-e?
If it is to be paid in the thing pro
mised, which means a certain quantity ot gold
or silver, why is it not as well to pay it on the
first rromise as on the third one, provided the
cteditor will wait equally long for it? The
question Involved in the Butler scheme is not
as to the time, but as to the manner of pay
mentnot whether It shall be made at tbe end
of five years or twenty, but whether it shall
be made in tbe thing promised or in another
promise of the same thing. Suppose a man owes
General Butler a dollar, and the General asks
him to pay it. He says, 'Yes, I promise to pay
it.' He asks him aaatn. Again he answers,
'Yes, I promise to pay it.' He asks him the
third time to pay bim tbat .dollar. He answers
the third time, yes, I promise to pay you that
dollar.' The General replies with some-warmth,
'Then pay it now.' The creditor replies, 'My
dear General, I have paid jou. I have three
times promised to pay you, and is not a promise
of payment a sufficient psympnt? Pray, sir,
bow many promises do you think it takes to
make a dollar V Probably the General would
boot the fellow from his presence, and never
ask him for the dollar again, arid take goad care
that he never owed him another. And yet Gen
Butler calls upon the Government of the United
Stales to do this very thing with its creditors.
"But General Butler's scheme not only pro
pores to redeem one promise with another
which Is never to be redeemed, but to redeem a
promise which draws Interest by one which does
not draw interest. To illustrate this, we will
suppose that General Butler holds a note against,
Charles Sumner for one thousand dollars, pay
able in two to five years, at the option of tho
maker, parable senil-apnually. The two years
are expired, and Mr. Sumner goes to General
Butler and savs 'General, I am tired of paying
interet on that note, and wish to oay it.' Gene
ral Butler replies, 'Very well, you have
a right to take It .up.' Mr. Sumner
offers him his own note for the
amount without interest. The General says
to Mr. Bumner, 'I have your promise to pay
already. If you wish to take up your note pity
me the money.' Mr. Sumner replies, 'General,,
1 did Indeed promise to pay you so many dollars,
but you know that one promise may always bo
redeemed by another of the same kind, unless It
Is otherwise expressly provhlod In the pronUe.
General Butler replies. 'But this Is not even a
promue ot ihe same kind; it promises no Inte
rest.' Mr. Sumner, with his accustomed good
nature, replies, 'Very true: but, General, you
should understand that as the second promise
always cancels the debt, I am no longer bound
to pay Interest.' "
Some scoundrel flung a stone through a
painted window at the Jewish synagogue in
Cincinnati last Sunday, while the congregation
were at worship. Ho one was hurt, but about
two hundred dollars damage was done to the
wtadow.

Rome, Oct. 26 Evening. Yesterday a force
of armed Garibaldiitns, who had just marched
across tho frontier from Italy into the Papal
territory, and were apparently in advance
towards Rome, attacked the town of Bagoarea,
situated about twenty-five miles southwest of
Orvleto. The place, which had previously been
in possession of the insurgents, and was retaken
by tbe Papal troops, was defended in a spirited
manner by the Pontifical Zouave3, and the Gari
baldians were repulsed by the garrison.
General Garibaldi the elder Is still in position
before Monte Rotondo at the head of a revolu

tour to five thousand men. Tbe place is de
fended by two companies of the Antibcs Roman
Legion and about onehundred menot the Pupal

Paris, Oct. 27 P. M. Paris is vastly excited
over tbe news from Italy and Rome. The
Bourse is agitated, aud city affairs remain in
quite an uneasy condition. Napoleon presided
to-day at a council of the Ministers of State,

various administrative efforts, declined the task
of constructing a Ministry, and Signor Ratazzi,
who since his resignation has been holding the
Premiership, as it were, pro tempore, declined
further service. Under these circumstances the
King sent for General Menabrea, and commis

Premier has formed a Ministry which includes

Revolutionary bands continue to cross the
Italic frontier Into the Papal territory. Let
ters from Rome, dated on Friday last, say taut
the Garibaldian bands which had mustered iu
60me force near tne uiernai uuy nau icu
back, but that a very large body of the revolu
tionists was ia a position about Alteon miles
distant.
There is no traffic to or from Rome. Tele
graphic communication betweeu this city and
Rome is still suspended, as the wires have been
cut; in fact, Rome isjutt now isolated from the
auUlde world.
Royal Proclamation Agalnat tha Gari
baldian Invasion King Victor Em
nuel on a War vrltn. Franca Tha
Roman (iueetlom May be Settled.
Florence, Oct. 27 Night. King Victor Etna
nnel has issued a royal proclamation addressed
to the people on the subject of the national
crisis. Ills Majesty says that the Garibaldian
bands of Invasion crossed the frontier Into the
Papal territory without the sanction of the
Italian Government, and centrary to and in de
fiance ol the law. Europe knows that the Insur
rectionary flag which is bearing destruction
to the temporal sovereignty ot the Head
of the Churoh Is not his. Tho state of
affairs imperils the peace of Italy and
imposes upon her king the duty of
endeavoring to save her from a war with
France. A war between France and Italy would
be regarded as a fratricidal war, engaging two
great armies, the men of which had quite re
cently combated side by side in the same cause
for lreedom and unity. The King, therefore,
appeals to his subjects acting with the Garibal
dian bands in the 8tates of the Church to return
to their homes and allegiance, and by so doing
save both tbe honor and peace of their country.
Tbe proclamation concludes by stating that
Italy and France will conjointly endeavor to
terminate the Roman question by some practi
cal arrangement.

FROM FORTRESS MONROE.
Rain Storm National Cemetery at
Hampton, Etc.
Fortkess Monroe, Va., Oct. 28. Tbe mos
terrific gale that has visited this coast this
season has been blowing to-day, and still con
tinues with unabated fury. At 9 P. M. last
evening, tbe wind shitted from northeast to due
east, and a heavy rain squall set in, which did
not reach Its height until this evening. At 10
A. M. an English brig came Into the Roads,
with her mainmast completely carried
away. The squall struck her otf
Wilfoughby Point, about two miles out, and
several persons on the wharf here saw her mast
go by the board. At about 3 P. M. auother brig,
flying tbe Austrian flag, came in with her main
topgallant mast and main and jibboom gone.
From the violence of the storm. It is (eared there
will be a large number of vessels wrecked on the
coast. The United States frigate Susquehanna,
the flagship of Admiral Palmer, Is daily
expected here, and it is feared she may now be
in tbe neighborhood of HaUeras, but being a
tint-class vessel she will no doubt weather the
Rqnall, let her meet it where she will. The
RoadB are full of vessels of all classes waiting
for the storm to abate.
The monument for the National Cemetery at
Hampton, the corner-stone of which was laid a
few weeks since, is progressing very slowly,
fhey have experienced great difficulty in ob
taining a derrick sufficiently high to complete
it, but they now have a large one from tbe Nor
folk Navy Yard which it is thotieht will answer
tbe purpose. Tbe monument, when completed,
will be a very fine one. On the south side of it
is to be placed an eaele, handsomely cut in
granite; on tbe north side a pair of crossed can
non ; on the east side a pair of sabres crossed ;
and on the west side a stand of rifles, which will
add very much to its appearance.
Quite an interesting affair took place at the
Cemetery on Saturday last. C. W. Hitzelberger,
Eeq., Superintendent of the United States Burial
Corps, was presented with a handsdrao gold
watcb, valued at $ 250, by the employes. It
was presented by Captain Crowell in a reat
speech, which was briefly responded to by the
recipient, after which the party adjourned to
the Superinlendent's quarters, there to partake
of sundry eatables and drinkables, and have a
good time generally. It was a fitting testimonial
to a deserving gentleman.

for to-day between the'Rochester horse, George
Pa'.mer, and the Auburn horse, Grey Mack, has

The New York Tribune this morning cays:
"Two decisions have recently been rtiade, of great
Uujxrnu)ce to brokers aud speculator Jji slot.
These dnrlnlons make the broker the owner of say
stuois he may have bought for a customer on a mar
gin, and HiiLhorl.eM him to Bell the stock of bin cus
tomer In case the margin Is exhausted. Tbe first w
In the caite of Oaks againnt Drake, In wliloa tha
opinion was delivered by Judge Ingraham, Tbe
other was In the cane of Markbam against Jaudon,
the opinion being delivered by Judge i,ponard. Tha
opinions together bold that when a banker or broker
Invests his own means In tho purchase and carrying;
of Mocks for bis employer, the relation created Is not
tbat of plpdger and pledgee, so as to require th
broker to give notice of the time and place of sale If
he wishes to sell tbe stocks upon the customer falling;
to respond, but be may sell after demand of tbe
money and a renftonnnle opportunity to the customer
to pay It, and without notifying tbe customer of tha
time ;and place ot sal. On the latter of theie two
canes It Is held tbat tbe customer does not become tha
owner of the stocks until be baa paid for them, and
until then tbe parlies are simply In a relation of spe
cial contractors with each other a relation more re
sembling that of vendor and vendee rather than that
ol pledgor and pledgee."
