THE JiO AT RACE TO-DAY.
The race between the Harvard and Oxford
crows will come off to-day if no untoward
accidont should cause a dolay, and thanks to
the Atlantic cable, which annihilates tho old
fashioned notions of time and apaco, we will
probably receive the news of the result about
2 or half-past 2 o'clock this afternoon, al
though the race itself will not take place until
5 o'clock, London time. But we are accus
tomed to these things nowadays, and have
ceased to wonder at them. This friondly
contest of strength and skill between two
little bands of college students has
awakened an interest on both sides of
tho Atlantic out of all proportion to
its real merits and importance, and yet as the
race is looked upon, not unnaturally, as a
contest between America and England, the
excitement on the subject is scarcely to be
wondered at. The Americans, since they have
been in England, have steadily grown in the
appreciation of their entertainers, and the
confidence which was at one time felt in an
easy victory for Oxford ha3 been materially
diminished, and it is now anticipated that the
taoe will be a close one whichever party wins.
On this side of the Atlantic there does not
exist the most thorough regard for the much
Taunted British fair play, and grave fears are
entertained that the Americans will not be
permitted to win under any circumstances. One
groat point has been gained, however, by the
selection of Mr. Thomas Hughes, M. P., for
referee, for his decisions will readily be
acquiesced in on both sides of the Atlantic
with hearty good-will, no matter which side
he awards the victory to. The Pall Mall Ga
zette, in commenting on the prospects of the
race, is specially indignant at the want of con
fidence displayed by the American press, and
it demonstrates to its own satisfaction at loast
that there is a vast difference between a con
test like this between gentlemen, and a prize
fight between such men as Heenan and
Sayers. Sad to say, our opinion of some of tho
English gentry, particularly those who are in
terested in sporting matters, is not so high,
and the reports that reach us from time to
time through exclusively English
channels is not likely to increase our
regard for them. Thus far, however,
it appears that every reasonable effort has
been made to give the Harvard crew a clear
course, and to allow the race to be decided
upon its merits. If there is any suspicion of
unfairness, or any attempt whatever made to
impede tho American boat, we believe that
Mr. Hughes will promptly interfere and see
that exact and impartial justice is done. In
his letter accepting the unlhunkful post of
referee he says: "I should lie if I said I hope
you will win, but I do hope that at tho finish
the bow of Harvard's boat will be at the
stroke oar of Oxford."
On our first page we give a full description
of the preliminaries of tho race, and also a
map of the course on the river Thames, which
will enable our readers to understand the
whole affair. The Harvard crew, it should
be remembered, labor under a number of
disadvantages; and if they should win, as
there appoars to bo a fair chance of their
doing, the victory wilt be so much the more
to their credit.
"THE EMPIRE IS PEACE!"
The committee entrusted with tho examina
tion of the Scnatus Consultumknxe completed
their labors, having made but few alterations
in the original draft, the most important
being those which give tho Seuate power to
reject a law without assigning any reasons
therefor, the government power to appoint a
commission to report upon votes of confi
dence or want of confidence, and provision
for an imperial decree establishing the regu
lations rendered necessary by the Sen a tun
CvHHvltvm, and defining the constitutional re
lations of the great powers of State. On the
first of September the Senate will begin its
discussion of the original document and the
proposed amendments, and the end will bo
reached nobody knows when.
The report presented by the Senate com
mittee contains several characteristic pas
sages which show how strongly ull their deli
berations have been tinctured with imperial
ism, and especially with the false and fatal
spirit of the Continental theory of govern
ment. The committee point to ''the tran
quillity, development of education, and in
crease of wealth" which have flowed from the
coup d'etat, and then assort that France is sup
ported by 1,400,000 soldiers ready to proceed
to the frontier." According to the views
entertained by M. llouher's committee, this
is the result of the legislation under the
empire which has gained France tho respect
of the great powers of the earth, and trans
formed her from a dictatorship to the perfection
of liberty ! If anything were needed beyond
the fact that the so-called reforms originated
in the mind of Louis Napoleon, to show how
hollow and empty they are likely to prove, a
perusal of the outline of the report of tho
committee, as given by the cable, will surely
suffice. This grand army of 1,400,000,
"readvto proceed to the frontier," is a fearful
commentary upon the imperial boast that
"the Empire is peace. 'lue tranquillity of
France, the development of education, and
the increase of wealth, all find in tnis im
mense array of glittering bayonets an almost
insurmountable obstacle, by which the pros-
pority of the country is retarded at every
point that does not coincide with the personal
aggrandizement and profit of the Bonaparte
family. TLe aUsgci transformation, of France,
from a dictatorship to complete liberty, in
view of all the facts of the case, is one of the
choicest bits of unintentional aaroasin with
which we have been favored of late.
Yet the theory of government which under;
lies the Napoloonio system coincides entirely
with that which prevails throughout the con
tinent of Europo the theory of force las
essential to tho stability of governments
which are not based upon the wishes and
affections of the people. Von Boust, the
Austrian Primn MiniuMr In a rnpont nroniin-
ciamento, declared that "tho maintenance of
peace will bo easier if the military force of
Austria in not diminished." Napoleon bases
his hopes of poace upon the ready command
of an overwhelming military forco; Bismark
conies to the rescue of the nations from tho
devastation and suffering of war by holding
at his beck another grand array of bayonets;
and so with every other Continental power,
whether great or small. Five millions of
men are kept constantly under arms to pre
serve the peace which is threatened
only by themselves, find to
maintain them in readiness for the
constantly impending conflict, the resources
of the diff erent nations are kept upon a steady
strain, tho burdens of taxation and monopoly
are made to weigh with crushing effect upon
the people, the peace of the world is kept in
unceasing peril, and five millions of sturdy
men are withdrawn from the productive
classes and added to the consumers. What
ever may bo the defects of our own system,
however rampant corruption and incompe
tency may be, it is infinitely preferable to
that which makes the personal whims, ani
mosities, and ambitions of a few "sovereigns
by divine right" paramount to tho best in
terests of tho mass of tho people.
THE CHINESE TREAT Y.
The suspicions which we entertained of the
truthfulness of the statements contained in
the cable despatches of yesterday an
nouncing the rejection of Mr. Burlingame's
treaty with the United States Government,
are confirmed by the extract from the
letter of the Paris correspondent of
the New York Times which we published
yesterday. The writer takes substantially
the same view that we did, and ho shows how
the British and French Chinese residents have
been laboring to undermine Mr. Burlingame
with the Chinese Government, and to dis
credit his embassy with tho foreign powers to
whom he is accredited. Mr. J. lloss Browne's
singular conduct is explained by the fact that
he is inspired by tho California prejudices
against the Chines and by a jealousy of
Mr. Burlingame, and ho appears to
have allowed himself to be
won over entirely to the interests and
opinions of tho Hong Kong and Shanghai
traders. A despatch from Washington this
morning states that tho whole story is dis
credited by our Government, and that it is
believed to bo "a weak invention of the
enemy." The absurdity of the assertion that
Mr. Burlingame's credentials were different
from what was commonly supposed, is shown
by the fact that the translation was made by
the Hon. Wells Williams, Secretary of our
Embassy to Pekin, and by Professor Martin,
translator into Chinese of "Wheaton's Inter
national Law," and now a professor in tho now
seminary established in the Chinese capital,
both of whom are thorough Chinese scholars.
Besides, both of Mr. Burlingame's secreta
ries, Messrs. Brown and Do Camp, are well
acquainted with the Chinese language, so that
any such deception as has been charged is
practically impossible.
By tho cable despatches of this morning, how
ever, it would seem that the report is believed
in England, and the failure of the treaty is
attributed to the intrigues of tho traders, who
have from the first been bitterly hostile to
Mr. Burlingame, and who fear that their gains
will be diminished if a more enlightened
policy should prevail hereafter in tho manage
ment of Chinese affairs. Heretofore brute
force has been the only influence brought to
bear upon the Government and people of
the Flowery Empire, and their dislike to
foreigners is not a thing to be wondered at;
but tho readiness they have shewn of late to
adopt modem ideas and to enter the family
of civilized nations was a gratifying augury
of a better state of things in the future. It
is barely possible that the treaty has been re
jected, although the reports to that effect are
open to grave doubt, but if this piece of
folly has been perpetrated, it will be none the
less to Mr. Burlingame's credit that he has
exerted himself to make the Chinese bettor
known and respected. The rejection of this
treaty will of course be a deep mortification,
but the Chinese themselves will bo the only
sufferers.
PRISON DISCIPLINE IN NE W YORK.
It is said that one of the former State Prison
officials of Sing Sing w as so much horrified
with the mismanagement and corruption pre
vailing among his fellow-officials and tho de
ficiencies of the present system, that he de
clared that the Almighty would speedily de
stroy the whole structure, as he destroyed
Sodom and Gomorrah, if it were not for the
virtue of the convicts. A recent meeting of
tho New York Prison Association and the
Inspectors of State Prisons, at Albany, in the
presence of Governor Hoff man, clearly indi
cates some of the reasons for this exatreo-
rated expression. It seems that hereti.forA
discipline has been only partially maintained
by cruel punisnments, but as they were abol
ished at the last session of the Legislature
the prison-keepers declare that they are una
ble to preserve order, that they are "afraid o;
their lives," and that the old system should b
restored.
An inkling of the character of that svstnm
is given by the statements of tho officials who
advocate its re-establishment. Mr. Nelson,
agent and warden of Sing Sing, has great
faith in the shower-bath. "If it had been
continued, he alleges, "the recent revolt
would have been averted," for, "in many
I cases, the convict would relent before" he
I was subjected to this injurious and exoru
1 dating torture. This same amiable embodi
ment of the humanitarian sentiment of the
nineteenth century also defended the com
paratively mild punishment of "hanging con
victs on hooks." "I have seen," said
he, "a case where a man had been on the
hooks for six hours, and would then sing and
dance. " If he was well read in Indian lore, he
might have known that it is not uncommon
for captives tied to the stake to taunt their
barbarian torturers, and to wear a smile on
their features while thoir bodies are writhing
with agony, and it is not at all astonishing
that history should repeat itself in the New
York State Prisons.
After tho old barbarian tortures had been
continued for years, the Legislature at tho
last session became suddenly conscious of
thoir iniquity, and abolished them, substi
tuting solitary confinement as the sole pun
ishment, but failing to make proper architec
tural arrangements for a fair trial of tho pro
posed new system. Sing Sing is said to be
radically dofective, being badly located, badly
constructed, overcrowded, near a railroad and
near a river, and having damp walls and small
cells, so that tho great Empire State crowds
her convicts in a structure unfit for the con
finement of human boings, which is unhealthy
as well as unsafe.
Tho idea of the legislators was to imitate
the Pennsylvania system, but they tried to
play Hamlet with the part of "Hamlet" left
out, when they failed to provide apartments
of tho proper description for separate con
finement. Thrusting men into damp, dark,
and poorly ventilated cells, where ono inspec
tor tells us that "ho could tell from tho bad
air in the cell how long a man had been
locked up," is only another relio of barbarism,
and the disclosures at Albany show that if
Delaware does not look to her laurels, New
York will bo able to boast of even more dis
graceful savagery than that which is typified
by the whipping-post.
The Cbacow Nun. An attempt has at last
been made to palliate tho story of the suffer
ings endured by Barbara Ubryk, the impri
soned nun of Cracow, but it appears in a
journal which, says tho London Pall Mall
Gazette, does not command implicit faith. The
palliation amounts to nothing more than a
flat contradiction of the wholo story, without
any array of facts to uphold it, and is there
fore entitled to no weight, except as tho
opinion of a partisan writer who has never
seen either Barbara Ubryk or tho dismal cell
in which she was confined. The animus of
the writer is fully shown in his assertion that
the Carmelite sisters of Cracow have been
made the victims of an abominable combi
nation of intriguing Jews, Protestants, and
Freethinkers, with the complicity, if not
under the direct inspiration, of tho Austrian
ministry." The unfairness of this apology is
so manifest that it will tend to damage, rather
than advance, the interests of tho Carmelite
nuns.
OHIO POLITICS.
More About KoNt-rran' Declination.
From the San b'ranrimo Lulletin, Aug. 1H.
General Kosecrans gives sonic very good
reasons for dccliuing to run as a candidate for
Governor of Ohio. In a telegram to Senator
Tliurnian, Chairman of the Democratic State
Central Committee, he says:
"After the war I resigned a very desirable posi
tion in the army, and left my state to secure at
least the possibility of lullillinir duties deemed
sarred to my creditors and family. Those duties
forbid mo tue houor of leading the Democracy of
Ohio in the pending canvass fordovernor."
The great State of Ohio pays its (iovernor $1800 a
year in currency equal to, say $i:i.'i( lu gold. A
poor man cannot airurd to hold the olllee. Uesldcs,
(Jeneral Kosecrans had previously held the olllee of
Minister to Mexico, with T2touu a year salary, in
gold. The two places, in the matter of emolu
ments, were too much in contrast. Then,
the General has a good thing in Cali
fornia, lie has been let iu to
the golden circle of lirst-elass opera
tors, of which there are hardly more than
twenty iu this State, not one of whom writes his
prospective fortune down at less than ?5,ooo,oou
The General has hold of the big end of the Southern
l'acillc Railroad land scheme, and keeps the ball
rolling pretty lively. One hundred and 111 teen mil
lion acres, with a largo lino of incidentals, has a
more promising aspect than a light with Vallamllg
lmm, in which the latter would settle old scores,
with a Btrong prospect of being defeated iu tho
canvass.
It Is reported that the declining candidate wrote a
letter to the central Committee well calculated to
make Vallandlgham howl. The latter has a way of
frothing at the mouth when exceedingly mad. The
letter indorsed the patriotic ell'orts so successfully
made to put down the Rebellion, enjoined thorough
loyalty, progress, and a square payment of the na
tional debt in coin. The counsel was sadly improved
by conferring the nomination on l'eudleton, the
pioneer repudiationist, and Valluudigham's bosom
friend.
CHEERFUL.
What Is in Store Tor our English fauninx.
The London Telegraph prints this alarming;
t-tatcineut:
"Sir: The Irish Church is disestablished and dis
endowed. A 'liberal' policy has triumphed. Now,
in this your hour of victory, listen to a warning
voice. I am persuaded that the hand of Almighty
God will descend In chastisement upon our land for
the guilt of national apostaey. lingland is now
utterly laithless to the deposit of Protestant truth
confided to her at the Keforniatlon. The whole
course of God's providential dealings with England
since the information shows that wo have only been
great and prosperous as wo have maintained the
Protestant religion and kept Popery down. If we
look to the Bible, and examine the fourteenth of
Kzeklel, we llnd that God's four sore Judgments
upon a land blessed with the oracles of Ood, but
lapsing into idolatry, are famine, pestilence, the
sword, uud noisome beasts. I say, therefore,
solemnly, that we mav look, in the near future, for
all or many of the following events:
"1. Famine.
"V.. Pestilence.
'X The sword, tn the form of violent civil tumults
and commotion, and, perhaps, civil war.
'4. Naval and military disaster.
"fi. National degradation and loss of prestige.
". The overthrow ol the Established Churches of
Kngland and Scotland.
"7. The subversion of the dynasty.
"H. The overthrow of the House of Lords.
"9. The separation of Ireland from Kngland.
"10. The shivering to pieces of the British empire,
upon which we have boasted that the suu never sets,
and which was won for us by our Protestant fore
fathers. "These are gloomy vaticinations, but they are
based upon the word of Him who has specially de
clared Ills abhorrence of Idolatry, 'who will not give
his glory ti another, nor His praise to graven
Images,' and who has sai l, 'Them that honor Mo I
will honor, but they that despise Me shall be highly
esteemed.' Popery is a predicted ami a foredoomed
apoBtacy. and it is ruinous to Kngliind to pet, aud
foster, and caress that worst form of idolatry, she
cannot do it with impunity.
