CRICKET.
The Flrt Omnil M Alert Between the
t.nciisii Eleven and American Twenty
two.
The N. T. Time of th1 mornlr-jr g,vet the fol
lowing, relative to the cricket matcn yesterday:
The largest assemblage of spectators Been at
a cricket match In this vicinity since the advent
of the All Ed iland Eleven In 1859 was In attend
ance on the 'i. Georgo grounds, Hudson City,
yesterday, to receive the English cricketers on
the occasion of their nrst appearance on this
visit 1n-a ma'cb. in this country.
The (tame began at 12 '20, the English Eleven
having won the toes, tending Humphrey aud
Jupp to the bat, Norley arid Harry Wright
handling the ball. Humphrey opened the game
by stopping Norley's straight one tor a maiden
oxer, Jupp being the nrst to score, a leg hit for
two oil Harry Wright being the brt scoring
done. In the third over from Wright, 11 urn -phtey
popped one into Korlej's hands at flip,
oat the bail wa diopped, aud t ie "little 'uu"
from Surrey bad a life given him. The next over,
however, Harry sent htm a beauty, which
mastered him, and he retired lor Ave in favor
of Smith, the first wicket falling for nine, two
of which were b5es, the right man not being in
the rleht place at long Mop, that proving to be
the weak point of the Twenty-two's Held in this
Inning. Jupp and Smltn soon got in welt
together, and the score gradually but surely
began to increase. Jupp bad obtained
twelve and Smith btteen, aud twenty ruus bal
betn (cored otf Hurry tor one wicket, when
he gave place to butterflcld, but still no change
was effected In the way of getting wickets, both
the batsmen showing a masterly deteuue against
excellent bowling. Finally after the score had
been run up to lorly-tive, of wutch Smith had
obtained twenty-t o, Smith clipped a ball from
Norley cn his bails, and retired, bis score being
rnsrked by two leg hits for three each one to
the ropes, and fivo twos, chiefly sharp hits, to
leg. He gave one slight chance to Rogerson at
long field, but that was all. L'ilywbite suc
ceeded him, and began by plajlug sale for
tingles, the bowling now being well on the
etnmps. and the fielding sharp, especially tuatof
Harry Wright; Lillywhite and Jupp were part
ners, and well iu together, wuen the Important
business of dinner interrupted the game lor
over an hour. After dinner Gibbes went
on In place of ButterUeld, who, by the
way, bowled his first seventeen overs for
six runs only. Gibbce, in his second
over, however, found a way to Lillywbite's
wicket, the bailer he sent him causing his retire
ment for a well-obtained thirteen, marked by a
fine drive for three and two twos, his wicket
(the third failintr for seventy-one, a tine average
asainst the excellent bowliug and sharp neldinir
the Eleven bad against them. Sbaw followed
Lillywhite, having Jupp tor Ins partner, the
fcurrey youth being in for a long term appa
rently. Like Smith, Shaw made a long stay.
For nearly half an hour he and Jupp kept tne
fielders busy, bo.h of them, while playing
straiehthats for straight balls b lofr quick to
avail themselves of every ball otf the wickets.
At last, after Jupp had been in at the bat over
two hours, giving bat one chance. Norley got in
on Lis mid btump, and he was obliged to retire
for twenty-three, marked by two threes leg
hits to the rope9 and six tos, his wicket
(the lourth) falling for sevinty-uine. As he
retired from the field he was greeted by
an appreciative round of applause, as was bis
predecessor Lillywhite, and also Smith, the
crowd being quite liberal to the stranger in this
respect. I'm rant, the renowned Cambridge
player, now came in, aud a fine display ot free
hitting was anticipated at bis bands, but in the
second over he received from Norley he was un
lucky enough to stop a straight ball with his
legs instead of his bat, and up went the ball and
out went Tarrant lor a duck-eira fifth wicket
for 81, Pooley being his successor. This was
quite a change in the average, whico. had bee a
twenty-three at the fall of the third wicket. Up
to this time the straight bowling and sharp
fieldiiiSr had necessitated a careful delense, and
the game, therefore, did not have that life
in H which characterizes free hitting.
But rooley soon began to make things
pleasant, and by bis life and activity at'
the wicket, kept the fielders on the alert, and
imparted an animation to the contest which
was quite a relief to it previously monotonous
progiess. Pooley and thaw, while they were in
together, ran up the rcore to near a hundred,
and both were well iu when Harry White
templed Shaw to make a short run, and the
result was his being run out by Ham's short
run of the tall to Cross, and the tatter's pretty
pluj at the wicket, Cross haviug succeeded
How man in the position. Shaw's conttibution
was sixteen, marked a beautiful cut for three
and three lg hits lor two each, his wicket the
fixth, falling for ninety-eight. Koabotham fol
lowed Shaw, and again was there another stand
n adp, Kowbotbam adding thirteen in good
ftyle during the half hour he was in; Shaw
being in for over an hour. The Yorkshireman
opened play with a beauty to le for three, aud
added four twos before he left, Norlev bowling
him with a tr'mmer. Norley eif ecially distin
guished hire self on this occasion. Freeman now
came in, and be, ton, led otf with a splendid bit
to the eastern corner of ibe ground, the hit
yielding him three easily. Pooley, io the inte
rim, bad rapidly run up eighteen, marked by a
three and lour twos, all beauties to leg, and
these two were In for a long pull tonethtr, when
"time" was called and stumps were drawn. We
give the score of the tuning below as far as
played:

GENERAL DIX.
lie Repudiates Noymonr find tbe Demo
cratic 1'Iutlorm.
Our Paris correspondent writes as follows
under date of Friday, September 4:
' In a London paper winich has beeu forwarded
me here, I see it asserted that General Dix is iu
favor of Mr. Seymour lor the Presidency. If
this statement is put lorth with the Idea of
BtienetbeDing the pretensions of tbe latter It
can be disposed of at ouce. Before General Dix
leit for England where he now Is, I ha I a con
versation with him on this subject, and know
that his sentiments are directly tne reverse of
those stated. Uo expressed himself to me as
strongly opposed to the nominee of the 4th
ot July Convention aud the payment of the
public debt in depreciated paper. He thinks
iir. Seymour's want of firmness would lovclve
tbe country in fresh ditlicultie, aud that a
repudiation ot any portion ot the public debt
would be a violation of tbe public faith equally
uniuiliflable and disgraceful to us as a nation.
Tbee are the views really entertained by the
General, and auy others attributed to hira
Wbitb may conflict with them, are falsifications
ot his sentimeuts. He bus been too uurcserved
and consistent in bis expression of them to
leave a possibility of any doubt on the subject.
Wfcat I have stated, I pledge myself he will
onflrm should it be sought to make auy further
nof his name to ulrengthcn Mr. Seymour's
cLaiices."

The Nashville Union and American nnhliaho
the following letter Irom N. B. Forrest in reply
o n penurman in tuai city locg ana intimately
associated with him:
Memphis, Sept. 7. Dear Sir: Tour favor of
me Din instant lias Deen received. I wrote to
you on yesterday, stating the facts lu regard to
me icuer iii iuc vincinnan uommerctai, and l
will send you a copy of a note of the corres-
Eondent (Woodward), in which he admits that
e may have misunderstood what I said to
him, and promises to correct the mUsUtemcHts
of his letter.
His letter purports to have been written in
my presence, and pretends to give a detailed
report of a long conversation with me, but tbe
lact is, that neither of these suppositions is
true. The letter was not written In my pre
sence, aud although he promised to show it to
me, so that I might have an opportunity to cor
tect any errors before it was sent otf, be utterly
failed to do so, and I had no knowledge what
the letter contained until I saw it in print. As
a report of what I really said to him.it is in
correct in many Important particulars. It puts
statements in my mouth which I never made,
and it colors others so as to chautro their rucau
lug entirely. For Instance, I said to him in
regard t0'.ihe Ku-KluxKlao that I knew nothing
positively of its organization, strength, or
objects, but that I was inlormed that Its purpose
was the protection of the people from iojury,
and that I was, so far at least in sympathy with
it. All the other assertions In regard to this
organization which he puts into my mouth were
derived from some oiher person, tr are the
fabrications of bis own brain.
I said to him further, that 1 did not think that
the wnele fact of calling out the militia would
brine on a civil vutr in this State, provided tbe
militia acted in accordance with the existing
laws of the state and the dictates of rea-on and
humanity; but If they attempted to carry out
the views of tbe Governor, as I understood
teem, Dy snooting down all men whom they
might suspect ot belonging to the Ku-Klux
Klan, or any other oreamzation, and if the Gov
ernor should proclaim martial law to any part
of the State, and attempt to enforce it, then, that
in such a state ot affairs, civil war would be
inevitable, and that tbe people would rise up to
put an end to such outrages and usurpations;
and that in this event, I thought that 40,000 or
60,000 men in this 8:a'e would rise la defense of
their rluht. I did not, however, meutlon the
Ku-Klux Klan in this connection: in fact I wis
very rautious in what I said to Wood
ward on this or other subjects, as I
suspected that he would not report me
fairly. I am satisfied now that he was
sent here for tbe purpose of drawing me into a
conversation so that he might misrepresent
what I said, and thus make some political
capital out of it. 1 regret that I allowed him to
talk to me at all, but I cannot feel that 1 am
mponsible for tbe misrepresentations of which
he has been guilty. If all that I have said on
political questions was reported correctly. I
should think there would be nothing found in
it which would injure the Democratic party or
the cause of the South. I have, however, in
all cases, attempted to speak but lor myself,
and no paity or person is responsible for what
1 have said. While I think that many of tbe
present laws of tbis State are unconstitutional.
I am, and have ever been ready to support and
obey them, believing as I do that it is better to
submit4otbem for a time than to attempt to
retist them until they can be reosiilod by legiti
mate legislation. 1 am, very truly, yours,

GENERAL GRANT,
IIIm farewell Address to Ills Army.
The general order of General Grant, addressed
to the soldiers ot the United State wheu the
war was over, will now be read with interest.
Here it is:
"Soldiers of the Armies of the Doited States:
By jour patriotic devotion to your country in
the hour of danger and alarm, your magnificent
fighting, bravery, and endurance, you have
maintained the supremacy of the Union and the
Constitution, overthrown all armed opposition
to tbe enforcement of the laws and the pro
clamation forever abolishing slavery the cause
and pretext of the Rebellion and opened the
way to the rightful authorities to restore order
and inaugurate peace on a permanent and en
during basis on every foot of American
soil. Your marches, sieges, and battles iu
distance, duration, resolution, aud bnl
liancy of remits, dim the lustre of the
world's past military achievement?, and
will be the patriot's precedent in defense of
liberty and right in all time to corns. In obe
dience to your country's call, you left your
homes and families, and volunteered in her de
fense. Victory has crowned your valor, and
secured the purpose of jour patriotic hearts;
and with the gratitude of your countrymen, and
tne highest honors a great and free nation can
accord, you will soon be permitted to return
to your homes and families, conscious of having
diechareed the highest duty of American citi
zens. To achieve tuese glorious triamphs, and
secure to yourself, fellow-countrymen, and
posterity, the blessings of free institutions, tens
of thousands of your gallant comrades have
falltn, and sealed the priceless legacy with their
blood. The graves of these a grateful nation
bedews with tears, honors their memories, and
will ever clierUh and support their stricken
famil'.ek." .
K1LPA TRICK.
Tbe General In tbe Political Field.
At Oratige, N. J., last night, a grand meeting
of Kepublicans was held at the "Tannery," to
witnets the reception of General Kilpatricir., the
leader of Sherman's cavalry.
The General, after a gracious reception, said.
iu B ii'ujmbo uu iuc uuiivium situation:
Tbe Democracy promised that if Lincoln was
elected tbey would plans the nation into a civil
war, ajid they did it. They had determined to
rule or ruin; but. thank God, they have only
the latter for themselves. When Air. Lincoln
was elected, the little Fort Bumter, with its
garrison of 80 men, was attacked by forts and
batteries manned by 6000 of the chivalry. This
commenced hostilities, and the war progrsssed
until Sherman had fought bis way into
Alanta, the Gate City of Georgia,
aud success everywhere greeted the
Union armies. Then the Democracy ot the
North rushed, not to prms, but to Chicago, into
a Convention, and declared the war a failure.
Ko it was ttr them at the South. General
Robert E. Lee and General George b. McClellan
were both defeated, hebelliou and Copperhead
Demociacy were buried iu a deep, dart grave
together. They verily believed that hanging
day bad come. At the end ot tbe war, they
said, "Yes, the war's ended, but U'a a failure."
Tbey then used their u'most eudeavors to grant
to the Rebels their lormer rights Hnd privileges.
Now, as then, there are to parties. The Union
men and tbe Democracy of the North and their
Rebel allies of the South. Referring to the
Constitution, the General raid that the great
questions before them could not be nettled by
old theories or the effect of past expene(
The Constitution and Declaration of lndepeud
ence tuitrd our lathers, but we have rewritten
and pun lied the. one and made a living
rea.ity of the other. We have inserted
one clause in It, and we'll Insert others as
olten as tbe bad Copperhead Democracy North
or the Kebel element South make it nece-sry.
Speaking of the organization of a bund of Re
publican Irishmen in North Oranere, the General
said that so long as the Inh people had identi
fied themse ves with the pro-tlavery Democracy
the Republican administration could not trust
them. He sympathized with them as victims of
oppression, but they had In a free country allied
themselves to and placed themselves in tbs
power of an oppressive party. He deslrad to see
Ireland a republic ireverned by the Irish people,
and when the LrUhoicn proved their siucentv
In a Republican cause he would cive them his
word and sword to aid their can.". At the con
clusion of bis speech, the General was raptur
ously cneereo, ana as tne meetmr broke up
was escorted to the depot by a moonlight pro-
tiou.
NEW JERSEY.
The Political Prospect In the State.
The Newark Courier says: 'Ws are con
stmtly Hfked by friends within and without the
Siate, What is tbe prospect in New Jersey? We
have but one answer to make, here or elsewhere,
to this inquiry, and that is that if tne Republl
cans prosecute the campaign as vigorouily
down to the day of election as they are now
doing, we shall carry the Stale by a ciear and
decided majority. Upon this point ttiere can
be eo doubt whatever. Neer before has
a better spirit or a more vigorous aud
determined purpose been displayed by the
Republicans of the State than is eihl
bited at this time. Not only are our meetings
unusually large and enthusiastic, but there is an
amonnt of slieut work being done in the way of
organization which has never been equalled.
In all the larger towns our meetings are regu
larly attended by large numbers of Democrats,
and many who have hitherto ac'cd with the
opposition now unhesitatingly declare thir
determination to vote for the great Cuptaia who
subdued the rebellion. We know of one town
alone in which twenty-five Democrats men
who have never voted any other than the re
mocratic ticket have openly and with empha
sis taken ground for Grant and Colfax. In the
lame town every officer in a Grant Legion of
two hundred members last year voted wtth the
Democracy. This is but a simple illustration of
the drift of the current among sober thinking
citizens, but it is sufficient to Justify the con
viction we bave expressed, that the day is ours,
If we but keep up our columns to tbe work.
"During the past month over one hundrei
meetings bave been held under the auspices of
the State Committee, while half as many more
nave been held independently or their action.
During the coming i ortnlght large demonstra
tions will be held in every county, and as the
day of election approaches every considerable
town will have one or more meeting' every
week. In this way every neighborhood will be
thoroughly shaken up, and the 1s?ups of the
canvass presented to the consideration of every
citizen." J

OBITUARY.
Isbmnel Khan Afta Mahommed.
By the death of Ishmael Khan Aera Manommprf
which occurred on tue 28ih of August last, the
theatres of Paris lose one of their oldest and
most devoted patrons, and the public are bereft
of a favorite subject of curious speculation. For
more than forty years this eccentric Persian
gentleman had been a familiar object in tho
Kiench capital, which he was never known to
h ave, even for a day; but altnoueh every species
of inquiry concerning his oriein and ante
cedents was exhausted, little could be discovered
beyond the facts that he lived in toe Rue
Rivoll, opposite the Tuilerles; that he poj
setsed an abundant income, and that be
was animated by an uncontrollable pas
sion for tbe drama. He could be seen
every evening at the opera house or thea
are, conspicuously seated in one of the fauteuils
of the first gallery (drees circle), calmly intent
on the performance, and totally ludifferent to
the constant scrutiny of his neighbors, for
which, Indeed, his sumptuous Oriental costume
and majestic personal appearance were sufficient
txcuses. He was always alone, and was never
known to converse with any person, txcepting
under pressure of necessity. The mystery
which surrounded him naturally attracted the
attention of iouraaits, and for many years
"The Persian" ws a cherished topic for fanciful
feuilletonistes. He was introduced into more
than one dramatic "revue," and, it is said,
always witnessed the mimic representations
of himself with grave imperturbability,
betraying no sign either ot amusement
or displeasure. Mery, tbe romance
writer, iu a fantastic sketch, assumed that "Tne
Persian" was one of the ancient race of flrs
worshippers, and that the cause of his persistent
attendance at the theatre was a religious deter
mination to submit himself each night to the
purifying influences of cbandtliers aud foot
lights. His true history, however, remained
undiscovered. His domestic life was one of
strict seclusion, and of late years he even re
fused to receive letters from any source. The
only visitors admitted to him were members of
the English and Persian Legations, and with
these be was not upon terms ot familiarity. In
a simple and unpretending way be assisted the
public charities ot his neighborhood, but never
permitted himself to ba recoguized as a bene
factor of the poor. IDs chief desire in life
seemed to be to shioud himself in impenetrable
secrecy.
Bince. bis death little light has been thrown
upon his history. According to the Secretary
oi tbs Persian Legation, ha was tbe ton of a
distinguished Oriental diplomatist, who having
been sent, about three-quarters of a century ago
by the feuah ot Per'la. on a mission to the
Knelish authorities at Bombsy, was accidentally
killed there in a riot caused bv the wanton
carelessness of some English officials. Tbe In
fluence ot thetshah was sufficient to obtain for
the son a pension of 50f,0 sterling, which was
regalarly transmitted to Ismael Kban at Paris,
dutingthe last lorty jenrs of his life. Of his
previous career nothing has been revealed, aud
the causes of his long exle from borne and of
bis peculiar habits ot lite in Paris temalu un
known. Hartford is ontting its tobaooo In anticipa

TEXAS.
An Explanation by ex-Confederate l'ost
inaster.Cieneral Iteagau.
Judpo Reapan, of Texas, who was Postmaster
General of tho Southern Confederacy, while
confined in Fort Warren wrote a letter advising
the peoj le of his State to accept tbe terms of
reconstruction ofiered them, aud favorinn the
extension of the ripht to voto to the newly en
franchised neproes. In a recent speech he
alluded to this letter, and in an editorial notice
of his remarks the Rusk Observer says:
For the first time Judae Iteagan made, on this
occasion, a personal explanation In regard to the
letter addressed by him to the people ot Texas,
during his solitary confinement at Fort Warren.
Tbis letter did not prove acceptable to the people
of Texas their minds were not prepared to take
the advice given them at that time. Some hard
tbins were said about his having sought, by
this means, to influence the powers that were In
his own personal lavor. Judge Reagan him
self has been as silent as the tomb for three
ears on this subject, not having spoken a word
io his own defense "eel f respect would not per
mit him to do so." If a residence of thirty years,
and a public llfo of twenty years, would not suf
fice to establish his patriotism and his devotion to
the inierest of the people of Tex is his self
respect lorbade him from making any personal
explanations. But here in Cherokee county, the
place of his earliest home in Texas anong a
people who had always trusted him, he would
make an explanation of an act done alone tor
tbe benefit of tbe people of Texas, at a time
when he was kept a DrifOner in solitary confine.
ment, where he had good reason to believe that
when be was taken hence it would ba to the eal-
lows as he and the whole country thought that
annmberof thelcadine Confedeiates would be
sacrificed; that in the honesty of a patriot's
Heart, who telt he would never see the lace of a.
friend again, he advised his people to do what
be deemed best lor them to do at the time, fore
seeing as he did from his means ot information,
what troubles might be averted.
