(tlnbn Kmbrnrpd In ttio AnHor.ln.iion Their
History ndlhrlr linrttra.
Thin afternoon,at half-post four o'clock, ttio annual
regatta of the Kchuylklll Navy comes oir on the
river at Falrmount. From tlie "Turtle Muck" tho
bathlnfr. point of yearn ago a smooth-faced, slippery
atone rlHliiR a few feet from the northern bank of tho
rtver.jHBt at the first curve above thn dam the boats
will start away, and thence stretch over a course or
three miles or more. The make-boat, round wti'cn
the raclnR barges turn, will be anchored cloae by tlm
Columbia bridge. The following boats are entered
tor ttio contest to-day, the llrst of tho regatta:
FltlST CLASS.
Bachelor, six oars, Jlachelnr 'Club.
Nautilus four oars, Quaker City Club.
rniKi) class.
Minnehaha, six oars, Malta Club.
Falcon, six oars, Pennsylvania Club.
Mrangcr, fouroarH, Pennsylvania Hub.
lone, MX oarH, Crescent Club.
not'iii.R s'fi.i.s.
Lurllne, of Malta Club.
Sylph, of Crescent Club.
That they will all, with one exception, participate,
and thus insure nn exciting and Interesting nice, or
rather sert.s of races, the public may feel certain.
The exception referred to is the liaclielor, the sud
den Indisposition of two of tier crew compelling her
withdrawal from to-day's mutest, at least. This un
fortunate circumstance will Interfere with the "tlrst--1iish''
race. The men composing the crews of the
everal boats have I n in training for some time,
furrowing tins bright, clear waters of the river from
the "Hock'' to the "h alls,'' and are in most excellent
condition, sun-browned and hardened, with the
muscles of arm and back Inured to tliat"severe exer
cise which rowing gives. It would be difficult to
predict the result of the race. None of the crews
yield aught to others, all are confident of w inning,
imd In such a friendly encounter pity 'tis that all
cannot be victors.
In the month of October, isM. the Schuylkill Navy
of Philadelphia, an association of its kind unrivalled
ill this country, was organized by the various boat
luhs of the citv.
The boats of the navy are classified, as follows:
First class, skeleton outriggers; second class, out
rigger barges; third class, barges.
The ilrsl regatta took place in June, lsSSt; the
second in June, isGu; the distance rowed over in
each case being one and a half miles and return.
During the war but little boating was done by the
navv, and it was not until the aistof October, lstis,
that the custom of holding annual regattas was re
vived. Since that time they have been celebrated
uniformly in the spring ami fall, the various clubs,
the numbers and efficiency of which have gathered
strength in the meantime, making them almost a
holiday for the city.
The clubs composing the navy are as follows:
Jtachclors', I'niversitv, I ndlne, Quaker City, Penn
Bvlvanla, Malta, Philadelphia, Washington, Crescent,
Atlantic, besides several independent organizations.
The navy headquarters are on the banks of the river,
lietwcen the creek separating new and old Fair
mount I'ark and Turtle Rock. The boats are of the
lest materials, stvle, and construction models in
every respect. The Schuylkill river course, the one
to be pulled over tills afternoon, is unsurpassed for
rowing, and is withal rendered attractive by tho
beautiful and picturesque scenery that surrounds It,
it contiguity to our large and growing l'ark, and the
lake-like calmness and transparency of its waters.
Many of the club houses are prettily fashioned, and
add to rather than detract from the beauty or the
Park.
So far as the clubs comprising the navy ure con
cerned, the following will serve the purposes of a
rief history of their org.ini.ati.m and progress:
The Bachelor Marge Club was organized on the
Fourth of Julv, 1S.V.. It has a membership of 5t,
most of whom are active. Tlieyare the owners of
three barges:
Linda, six-oars, smooth gunwale.

Its house occupies a conspicuous place In the Park.
It is built of saudstone, and cost liruo. It is two
Btories high, and is of the liothic style of architecture.
Tin Linda is the oldest barge on the Schuylkill,
and is the one in which the llachelors made their trip
to New York on the lfith of May, lsr.9. Tho distance,
one hundred and forty miles, by river and canal, was
made in twenty-eight hours' rowing time, including
detentions at canal locks amounting to four hours.
The I'niversitv Marge Club was founded In iw4 by
the Freshmen Class of that year of tins University of
Pennsylvania. It is the owner of the

The club musters 4S members. It has a first-class
boat-house (tho Philadelphia Skating Club house),
handsomely lltted up, and an ornament to the Park.
Their first boat, the Hesperus, was lost in an effort
to rescue the crew of a sail-boat driven on the dam
at Falrmount by high water. Her place was Oiled
by the Lucifer, rated as one of the fastest boats in
the navy, The Lucifer carried the champion nag of
the navy for several years.
The Undine Marge Club was founded in Mar, 158.
The members originally were nearly all of thirty
years or upwards.

oars, smooth gunwale; Fawn, doub'e scull; Crab,
single bcuII; and Spider, skeleton. The club has
SU active, 5 honorary, and 2ft contributing members.
The Quaker City Marge Club was instituted Octo
ber !20, lKftS, growing out of the Camilla Moat Club.
The barge owned bv the latter organization was
purchased by the Quaker City, and the, name was
changed to the Cvgnet.
The ouaker Clv originally occupied a one-story
brick boat-house, and when that building was or
dered to be tekeii down by the city, they purchased
half of the Pacllic Club house, one of those pretty
buildings on the banks of the river at Fairmouut
j'arK.

lenirtti. the largest bar ire ever unon the Schuylkill.

demoralizing tendency. In 1SC3 new life was infused
Into the club, and their floating boat-house, which
had been moored in the Delaware at Washington
street wharf, was removed to the Schuylkill, near

As soon as Mr. Curtln filtered the historical room,

I speak the sentiments of all the member of this

earnestly devoted yourself to the alleviation of the
snilerings ol trie gallant soldiers who gave them
selves to their country In tho late terrible con
test lor the supremacy of the Constitution and
laws, and to you who now go abroad as the distin
guished representative of our country to a distant
government.
1 ou leave us, sir, appreciated by your fellow-cltl-
zens as a fuilhtul servant, and by many of them as a
warm personal friend.
Vt e hope that your vovajre may be safe: that your
mission will redound to the honor and glory of our
country, and that In God's Providence, you, 'with all
you take with you in your family circle and otllclal
connection, may, after finishing this Important miblic
tiusr, tie permitted to come back In the eniovment
of good health, and happy in the consciousness of
having served your country in a very important
nmnner.
On the conclusion of Mayor Fox's remarks. Mr.
Curtln responded as follows:
Governor I'liriln's Ursponne.
About to leave the country, I feel deeply the honor
conferred upon me by the city authorities In tender
ing to me the use of this sacred room to meet such
of my friends and fellow-citizens who desire to call

City Councils for such a distinguished privilege; and
to yon, sir, as the Chief Magistrate of this great citv.
i oner neartieit tiianKs ror tlie complimentary and
kind manner in which you convey to me the reso
lutions of (he Councils, and for the personal and olll-
cial welcome you glvo me to this place.
feeling a lust pride as a Pennsylvania!! in the
beauty and the prosperity of this our commercial
emporium knowing as I do the fidelity and patriotic
devotion of Its people to the Government in its day
of deep distress and anguish I would not hae the
instincts of a common humanity if mv heart did not
well up its gratitude to you and to them for the
many evidences or altection I am receiving on the
eve of my departure. In this sacred hall, dedi
cated to Liberty this Mecca of American freemen
I pledge myself to maintain with all the gifts it has
pleased providence to endow me with, the relations
of friendship which have ever existed between our
country and the great Government to which I am
accredited; aud this is a lifting pin-c and this a
proper occasion to declare to you, sir, to the co-ordi
nate authorities of the city, and to the people, that
I will try to uphold and maintain the Interests and
the honor of my country.
The ltecepllon.
Long prior to the hour appointed for the reception
the presence of a squad of police otllcers nt the main
entrance of Indepenpence Hall indicated to the
passers-by that something of more than ordinary in
terest was about transpiring. Shortly the members
oi city councils could oe seen wend tic- the r wav to
their Chambers, and the Liberty Cornet Hand sta
tioned itself on the pavement and rendered seve
ral airs, ah this had the effect of drawing
thither a large crowd, so that when his Ex
cellency arrived, hundreds of the citizens were there
to greet mm. as t tie carriage which bore him drew
up at the curb, a double row of police olllcers was
lormen, wnicn sircicneo away to the door, and
formed an avenue through which the Governor
reached the Hall. While he walked up the steps,
the band, which was now stationed on the stairway
facing the entrance, pealed forth "Hail to the Chief.-'
At the same momtut the members of Councils.
headed by the Mavor.advanced to meet him. then fol
lowed him into the Hall. Here the address of welcome
and the reply were at once pronounced, after which
the citizens came up In single file, Bhook him by the
nano, men reureo over a tiigtit or steps wh en had
been erected at one of the rear windows of the hall.
The band in the meanwhile played, tho crowds
cheered, and the Governor was kept busy returning
his thanks to the hundreds who pressed forward to
greet nun.
Beiore tne reception concluded some eight hun
rlrcd soldiers of the Grand Army of the Republic ar
rived at tne 1 1 tin to Did tarewell to tne w ar Governor
of Pennsylvania. Thev met and organized at their
hall, No. Sll Chesnut street, and had in their ranks
delegations from all the posts in the city.
The Banquet.
The grand banquet to the Governor, tendered him
as a compliment by ins mends, comes otr at the
Academy of Music at 5 o'clock. At half-past T o'clock
the doors of the building are to be thrown open for
the admission or ladles to the tialcontes. It will un
questionably be a very brilliant allair. The prepara
tions nave ueen most extensive anil complete, and
the entertainment will be one never surpassed In
tins ciiv lor elegance and eciar.
The Interior of the Academy will be gorgeously
decorated. A large and trained orchestra tinder
Mark Hasslerwill be present. Many notables, not
only of the city, but of the country at large, will also
be there to give evidence by their presence of their
appreciation of the worth aud patriotism of the dis
tinguished guest.
A number of war-Governors have signified their
intention of coming, and many celebretles, both in
the army and the navv. A despatch has been re
ceived from Cyrus V. Field stating that he likewise

The Flohida Kklraskd and Puts Gff to sua.
Considerable excitement was occasioned about a
month since by the announcement of the detention
of the Florida at Chester, Pa. Tills vessel was de
tained from the fact that she was suspected of having
been purchased by the Cuban patriots, to be used in
their effort to secure their freedom. For a mouth
past she has been lying at the works of Keauey,
Archambault & Co., under the surveillance of the
revenue cutter Yt illiam H. Seward, the commander
of which had orders to detain her until further
orders. Her owners have been able to satisfy the
Government that her destination was not Cuba, but
Moslon, and they have entered Into bonds for double
her value that such is her course. Yesterday the
orders for her release were received, and at noon she
steamed down the river. If the bond is evaded, the
Government, under tho present International law,
can seize her in any port in tlie world.

Money easier and plentiful at 7 per cent, currency,
with an active market. The gold market disa
nointed most of the operators. The rate of exchange
and the unsettled aspect of European allairs, toge
ther with rumors of the recognition of Cuba, had
created the impression that gold would sell to-day at
140, or above. Under this influence there were sales
before the board opened at lb9V trom which point
the market gradually fell off to rw-. This turn is
attributable to the fact of most ol the speculators
being long of gold, and when a turn conies to sell,
offerings are so large that the market must give

Horrible Scenes nnd Occurrence In I lie 1 1 II
iioih suite I'eiiiieniiiiry.
From the Juliet S , June 8.
About ten ilavs ago a quarrel took place between
two convicts while on their way to the quarries, with
a gang from the prison under charge of guards,
which resulted in a desperate light with knives, jtotn
the combatants were wounded, and ono of them so
severe v that he died on the following day.
Hut the bloodiest atltay yet occurred on last Thurs
day. As the convicts were sitting down 10 dinner a
nu'arrel occurred between two large and powerful
men. A few words passed, when both parties drew
forth large sharp-pointed knives, and a most terrific
and deadly struggle ensued. They fought the entire
length of one of tlie long tables, stubbing and striking
a ternate v. and were not separated until iney nai
bemin to fail from the loss of blood. The floor and
tables wera bespattered With blood, and tilt
scene was one long to bo remembered. They
were both taken to the hospital, and one or them ex
Hired In live minutes. His body exhibited no less
t hun half-a-dozen fatal stabs. The other was dan
gerouslv wounded, but survives yet. An inquest
was held over tho bodv of the dead man by Corone
Iteese. but the iurv could not agree upon a verdict,
Such Is the condition of iill'alrs existing at present
in the Illinois State Penitentiary. There is no sort
of discipline. The convicts are allowed free license
to do as they please. They knock down tlie guards
at nleiisure. and commit murder among themselves,
And what is unheard of In prison discipline, more
than one-half of the convicts are armed with knives
and murderous weaiions. This being the case, an
open revolt and tho murder of scores of Innocent
men is momentarily expected. When we remember
that there are nearly twelve hundred desperate men
confined In tho penitentiary, for crimes of various
grades, and that mora than one-half of them are
armed with deadly weapons, we cannot help trem

a7bnrrf(fe Mich.) Cor. Detroit Advertiner.
A secret society of about 100, comprising most of
the leading respectable women of the village, has
been silently formed during the past spring, without
the knowledge or tne other Bex, ror tne purpose or
taking measures to resist the evil Influence of llqnor
and gambling saloons. There are ten places here
where Intoxicating drinks are sold, Including two
hotels antl two drug Btores. The temperance lec
tures of "tho Buckeye liroad Axe" had produoed
much excitement here, and the close of one of these
lectures on Wednesday evening at 1 o'clock fur
nished the occasion for the grand denouement. From
seventy to eighty of these ladles, without the know
ledge of any ont of the society, left the lecture nail,
and silently marched to and entered one of the bil
liard saloons. One of the two ladies appointed to
speak quietly addressed the keeper, saying that they
had come in neitaii or themselves ana oiner indies to
bear their testimony against the business of the sa
loon as injurious to themselves ami their families,
leading their husbands, fathers, and sons Into Idle
and dissipated hablta nnd ruin, and respectfully ask
ing, for their sakes and tho Bake of society, that, he
desist from the business and follow some other
cabling. The phalanx then left and pro
ceeded in a body to tne other ounara sa
loon and to one of the hotels, uttering
t.imllar remonstrances and requests as before,
and then adjourned until 6 o'clock I'. M. on Thurs
day, when they formed In a body, and proceeded to
the other liquor-selling establishments, giving utter
ance therein to the same requests. Tills was the
grand army movement. On Vrlday and Saturday
we hear of occasional skirmishes made by companies
and platoons, giving occasional calls. The exact pro
gramme to be pursued by this Booiety is unknown
to the other sex, only as it deveiopes in open acts.
The effect unon saloon anil grocery men was various.
The ladles exhibiting no violence, most of the keep

CRETE.
Kufl'criiiSM of the People How they were
Cheated of their Freedom.
The following extracts are taken from an inter
esting letter written to lr. S. (J. Howe by Ellas
Htekoull, and published in the Boston Cretan:
"Athknh, Greece, January 24. As Boon as I landed
In Crete (June 20, lsoij), I heard the Hat of European
diplomacy was that Crete should be annexed to
Greece, but that in order to reach this result, it was
held to be necessarv, as a preliminary condition, that
the island should submit to Turkish rule. The sur
render of the Insurgents (they said) would pave the
way for the fulfilment of the desires of civilization.
This rumor was craftily disseminated over the
Island by the agents of some of the Great l'owers,
and thereby produced results which the government
of the Sultan could never have gained by cruelty
and force.
"Leaving Ajia Roumeli (where I had landed and
remained four days). 1 penetrated to the mountains
of Volakia, through by way of the steep precipices of
Ajia Roumeli and St. Maria. On my way I saw
hundreds of the Insurgents, with their wives and
children, and saved them from nakedness and
starvation by the contributions of the American
people.
"I shall never forget the terrible scenes I have
witnessed Bince I landed on the struggling Island. I
Baw matrons and maidens peer out like phantoms
from the caves in which they dwelt, and then hastily
glide in again, in order to conceal their nakedness
from mv sight.
"1 heard the groans of children and old men, who
were miserably perishing from famine.
'How can I describe the ferocities which the
hordes of tlie Ottoman empire have committed In the
village of Patsanou 1 Corpses were draggod from
their graven and mutilated, or cut into pieces, and
strewed through the streets. How can I report to
von in detail the horrid crimes committed by them
against the women the maidens ami the tender
youth of both sexes? How can 1 lind language to
lament the Innumerable victims of hunger and cold,
whom I saw everywhere In the Island, and especially
in the inounlalns'of the Apocoronas. Hetyninos, My
lopotanios, where masses of bones, are heaped up as
trophies of the suffering Cretan people's perseve
rance against their enemies?
"Such being the suffering of the Cretan people, I
think it Is needless to recount how much good was
done by the contributions of the Great Hepubllo of
which you are a citizen.
"lie assured that the American Christians have
saved from otherwise Inevitable death thousands of

ordered before the Examining Board, and found lu

Washinoton, June 12. Senator Ross called upon
General bherman at the War Department to-day,
and requested that a sufficient number of troops be
Bent to Kansas to quell the disturbances which have
broken out there relative to land titles, etc. uoss
says that the State authorities are unable to put
down the ringleaders of the disturbances, and repre
sents that if prompt action is not taken the conse
quences will be quite serious.
Cuba and Spain.
The Secretary of State gave an Interview to a
representative of the Cuban insurgents, relative to
the proposition submitted a few days ago as to
whether, since the abdication of Dnlce, the Spanish
Government retained any regular authority in Cuba.
It is understood that Mr. Fish decides that Spain has
control over Cuba until the latter actually achieves
independence by driving the Spanish forces from
theisland. The mere change of the Captain-General
does not, he thinks, constitute the abdication of the
power aud authority of Spain over the Island.

last night a desperate attempt was made to murder

He Make n Denial He In not alter n 3ov-
crnmenl Oftlee He hit t a "Few ICm-mim."
A Washington despatch of June 10 stated that
Governor Geary was to succeed Mr. Borlo within,
thirty days as Secretary of the Navy. Tho State
Guard of yesterday, a journal edited by Wlen Forney,
State Librarian, appointed by Geary, publishes a
statement which may be regarded as an authorita
tive denial coming from the Governor himself. Front
it we take the following:
We are authori.ed to pronounce this report en
tirely unfounded. President Grant has not tendered
Governor Geary any position whatever, nor has tho
Governor asked for any position in the gift of the
President It is true that these two gentlemen hail
a private interview in Washington on Wednesday,
but it related entirely to private matters; the con
versation was of a friendly nature and of no possible)
interest to the public.
Governor Geary has long been a warm friend of '
General Grant, and his feeling of friendship for the
President has been fully reciprocated. He has not
asked for any appointment, and is not now an appli
cant for nny oltlce at Washington. His position as a
candidate for the Gubernatorial renominatlon In
Pennsylvania is well known to the people, and in
this position alone does he stand. Ho is not lying
around loose, in waiting for any opportunity that
may turn up. His delegates are elected with the full
understanding that ho will go before tho people for
re-election to the chair which ho now nils, and they
intend to nominate him In the convention In Phila
delphia on the 23d of this month.
The report that he is an applicant for or has been
tendered a position in the Cabinet is a falsehood cut
out of the whole cloth, and Industriously circulated
a few days before the State Convention, 'for the pur
pose of hoodwinking tlie people and confusing the
delegates Instructed for him. But tt will fall utterly
in accomplishing the purpose for which it was
originated. A sutllclent number of delegates have
already been instructed for (ieary to secure
his nomination. He has very few enemies;
but these few, actuated by the certainty or
his nomination, and straightened in their
means ami resources for carrying on any further op
position, have now resorted to tbls miserable expe
dient of defeating the will of the people by attempt
ing to confuse the councils of his friends. Stand firm,
and beware of sensational reports expressly calcu
lated to Injure his well-deserved prospects. John
W. Geary is a candidate for but one position, and
failing In that of which there is no possible likeli
hood he will be found In the ranks laboring as
zealously for the election of the fortunate nominee
as any man in the Beptibllcan party.
