The Telrgraph enlnpxos the Elliot boat m tight, fust, and graceful, travels well, and suits her crew. We do not expect, the Telegraph says, that the Harvard can win the race, but the changes made by them bring the crews more on a level. On the whole, wc think it will be a capital race. The Oxfords will defeat their gallant adver saries without dillictilty. If otherwise, the Har vard must have an ovation, to show that we are not .ifruid to be beaten by our excellent cousins. The American .Horn Powerful. The .SViir says the Americans are individ ually more powerful thin the Oxfords, but it is thought their training is not according to Eng lish notions of strictness. The Advantage of the Oxford. The Daily Ai ws says, "Above all things we are anxious that the contest shall be pharp from first to last. That the victory, whether on one side or the other, shall be so hard to win as to oover winners ami losers alike with glory. To prcjudgo the issue would be impertineut in the Iat degree." The writer then takes opportunity to acknowledge to the full extent the obvious and inevitable disadvan tages the Harvard have contended against. The river und everything were strange and uufa lniliar, and matters as they were of the science of rowing, they had to study it almost like the alphabet of a foreign language. The Osfords on Charles river would labor under similar disaihatttauQj, AH that can be said is that they ftcld grace lo victory .ml dignity to defeat.

A body of Ku-Klux or other disguised rulliuns visited the premises of sonic negroes near Smyrna, Rutherford county. on edncsday niglit.Iaud perpetrated uu out rage that should bring them to the gallows. They whipped u negro mimed Ben White almost to death, and another named Ren Tncker they shot dead while he was iu the act of running away. It is not known what offense, if any, the negroes committed, or who were the villains. whether white or black, who perpetrated the bloody outrage. Efforts are being made to ferret them out. A respectable lady near Addersville, Georgia, was outraged and murdered by a negro last Tuesday. The fiend made his escape. Dur ing the last two week the Southern papers jive detail of no less than nine similar out- rages on white females by negroes, the victims in two cases being less than eight venrs old. Four of the ravishers were caught and lynched. In .Marshall eountv, Alabama, a negro who had made himself offensive by voting the con servative ticket was shot and killed on Tuesday last by a lot of radicals of his own color. Hi only offense is said to have been his politics. J he corn crop in leuuessco will bo short fully one-third, by reason of the long drought.

Paul de Cussasrinie, the terms of which are so eccentric that I translate them for the amusement of your readers: Sir: 1 come to you armed with my convictions and with my heart full of hatred. If you aro not, the last of towards you shall kill me or die. lle tween us there can bo no truce. The moment our eyes are fixed on each other, one of us must disap pear into nothingness (m'c.) Understand clearly that there is no longer any question between us of what jou call the figuring of the carving knife or the assurance of the sword, but of the arm that kills. It is with hand on breast and pistol ou fore head that I wish to hold you. Ignorant as to which of us has the loaded weapon, destiny will be our judge. 1 await, here your acceptance. In a few days I shall be tree and at your service. Uaii.laki), Pere, Political prisoner In St. Pelagic. It is needless to add that M. Paul Cassa!nac has deeliued this invitation. Professed duellists do not like such close quarters. A Florence correspondent adds: The practice of duelling in Italy Is still kept np, and the frequency of such encounters seems even to Increase. Indeed, hardly a week passes but several cases are reported. The recent tobacco contract con troversy threatened to furnish a large crop, but up to this time no sword has been drawn or powder burnt on that account. The editor of tho a:ione, Siguor lireenu, has made an effort to have a shot with Signer Oliva, of the lii forma; but technical obstacles are happily in the way. The question is still pend ing. The Italians do not yet see what a foolish practice this is. Duels here often grow out of tho most trivial misunderstandings. Fortunately, when the tug of blows conies, the parties contrive not to hit each other, and in the majority of cases no death or Incurable wound follow. A few davs ago there was an encounter on the peaceful hill of the Mount, of Olives, near one of the gates of Florence. First lire at a distance of twenty-live paces no skill broken. Second trial, distance reduced to sixty feet like result. The parties then apologize, shake hands, ami return to the city together. Such Is the ogic of duelling. Mni-l4'i iu Italy. The recent murder in a railway carriage near Isolctta is still creating much excitement in Italy. The victim was tho Countess Amanda Cottaneo, and was known to bo mixed up In revolutionary alluirs. Her father, the deputy l)e Pietro, was assassinated two years since. The Countess, who is described as young and beauti ful, has been wandering about Southern Italy, and lately lived at Nola. While there, her sup posed murderer, a man named Negri, fired 11 pistol at her. and by the advice of her friends she left the place for Naples. She was accom panied by threo gentlemen, w ho did not perceive that Negri was iu the same train, and they ac cordingly took leave of her at Coserta, believing her to bo safe. On the arrival of tho train at Isolotta, however, tho dead body of the Countess was found in the carriage, her hands being cut with glass and the window broken. Political motives are assigned for tho murder, with which, it is said, jealousy hud also something to do. The murderers of M. Inghiraml, the Austrian Consul of Llvarno, have been all released. It is said that the jury feared to convict them, dreading that they might themselves run the riik of Ihe dagger. CUIU. The Npanlnrd Ilronaht to Htnnd-More Con Bnrntlanw. Havana, Aug. 21. General Leseahas gone to Spain, and, if the reports in circulation are to be credited, there is a good number of other officers who are exceedingly anxious to leave tho island. This feeling is lurgcly shared by the soldiery. There Is no money with which to pay the troops, nnd the disaffection is becoming very great. The' (iovernor-Gcncral is now visiting Cardenas, Matan.as, and other towns in tho in terior and on the coast. His reason for doing so at this time is said to he an apprehension that tho volunteers will remove the governors of some of theso towns, as was lately the case at Mutanzns. At present eight large meu-of war are here They cannot go out cruising, because they are short of coal and can get none. It is estimated that the Govern ment already owes tho coal companies $2,000, 000, nnd it has been determined on their part to furnish no more coal, unless for money paid down. This will occasion considerable embar rassment in tho matter of naval operations. A "rising" is reported in the jurisdiction of the Candehirias, which is iu the Vuelta Abajo country, Western Department. The laborers on three sugar estates revolted, and were joined hy other country people. The Insurgents arc in the Sierras, awaiting an expedition expected to arrive with guns nnd munitions of war. This, H is supposed, will laud on the northern coast. The insurgents are making headway in the jurisdiction of Colon and in the colony of San Domingo. They have been, of lute burning up uu mi! cugnr esuues in tnose regions, ana ttio country is full of rebels. The Gactta ol yester day contains a decree of the Governor-G'encral with respect to balances of money and accounts current pertaining in any way to or growing out of transactions conuected with the Havana liailroad. These accounts and ba lances nre all declared null and of no c fleet after the oOtli inst.

The J're nsa of the 20th has the following: Our readers will remember that in our last setni weckly review a reference was made to a report that a force of Spaniards had been defe itcd by the insurgents. In different journals this news has been published. Unfortunately the news is true, which is not extraordinary, inasmuch as we learn that there were only !K) Spaniards en gaged, while the insurgents had 1200 men, well posted. Tho Colonel of the Spaniards, Portal, was killed, and those of the troops who escaped did so by flight, leaving everything behind them. It is a disgrace to us, but such tilings will hap pen in this clAfS of wars.

The Laborante further adds that "the Havana periodicals stated on Sunday that Queida had marched toward the coast to cover a disembarkation, which statement is not true, as the landing was effected at the moment of the attack on Puerto Principe."

The Kansas Pacific Railroad Company, through their bankers, Messrs. Dabuey, Morgan, cc Co., and M. K. Jesup & Co., have placed upon the market two millions of their seven per cent, gold-bearing loan; aud as great interest has been attracted to it a statement of the in ducements this security offers to investors may be opportune.

The following extracts show tho stato of the New York money market yesterday: t rom the Herald. "The Money market was Irregularly reported, many stock houses being compelled to pay the full legal rate on call loans. The transactions at six were, however, numerous enough to make the quo tation double, that is, from six to seven per cent. Home of the leading Government houses obtained exceptional sums at five. Commercial paper was in better request, particularly for the shorter dates, and the movement m ght almost be termed brisk. The rates or discount were without changp, remain ing at nine to twelve per cent, for the choice grades. In the foreign exchange market transactions were limited and business dull. "A great deal of Interest la manifested In the re sult of the inter-unlverslty boat race Iu England to morrow, and the stock operating fraternity have w agered large amounts thereupon. The odds were in favor of oxford on an average of about five to lour. A few small bets were made even.
