Tapp INTERNATIONAL RACE.
The contest between the picked boat crews
' of.oiford and Harvard 'Universities has ex. ;
'cited*. anoit, .extraordinary amount of interest
on both shies of the Atlantic, and its , issue has
been looked for with the most feverish anxiety
by .all 7 classes :and .conditions in the ; community.
Theunconqneuable jealousy of the - two na
tions AM-es : up into active demOnstrationwhen
evel"any question :of rivalry is started ; and
whether it belt prize-80 - a, a yacht race, a.chess
:,,giatch, a horse race, a regatta, a contest of men
brutes, -of brain or muscle, of skill or
strength or both, national pride spring§ to
arms and ranges itself, on both side 4 of the sea,
in solid phalanx at the bails of its champions.
•'• Time was, and not Very long ago, when
,;)gland recognized no rival Willie turf or on
:'the water, in any athletic 'exercise; but the
young men of America have "changed all that,"
and:such is the attention now paid on this side
the Atlantic to all manly sports and to all
physic u al training and development, that , our
. English \ cousins have come to look upon. our
young 'athletes with as much respect as they
have been taught to pay to French racers.
The race of yesterday has engrossed the pub
lic press of two continents, and the thoughts
and conversation of hundreds of thousands of
men, women and children, for weeks past.
People who never heard ,of Harvard before,
land do not know now whether it is-a town or a
college;--people who never saw a racing boat;
people 'who do not know whether the rowers
face fore or aft ; people to whom all the vocab
ulary of aquatic sports is ' unintelligible.,gibber
ish ; , people who would not beta penny to save
their . lives ; young and old; rich and poor;
wise and foolish; " workingmen" and "bloated
aristocrats;" everybody. has been intensely ex
cited, that their hitherto unknown favorites,
Oxford' or Barvard, should win. .
The agony is over, and one-half the world is
happy and the other half is otherwise. By the
close diWrence *of six .seconds in a.race of four
and-a-quarter miles, Oxford wins, and so
maintains the . supremacy - which the - ancient
college has now held unbroken for the last nine
. The &tails of the race are already familiar to
everybody. The conclusions which me to he
ch-duced om it are these : The race was a fair
. r une. It was never supposed that it would be
titherwise, as between the two crews. It tells
fcai ed that the sporting crowd of English
roughs who had staked their money on the
oxford boat would ,do what they have done
lefore, save their money by trickery or violence,
if they saw that it was in danger. But this
suspicion has been so openly declared, that the
risk of it was taken away, and the precautions
-high v.trel - akerrmade - - foul - play - alnrostinV
possible.
;-------Theri-itisalemonstrated-that the - Ifarvard
rew-ere-personally-the-full—equals—of-their
.thiford rivals. The close character of the
race, in the first half of which the Harvards
led, and in the whole of which the difference of
.linteivas but Nix .secomis, verifies the prediction
cf one of the English papers, that it 'would be
"a race of coxswains." At several points of
the race we see that the Americans were row
ing against odds. Thus we are told that at a
mile and an eighth, "the Harvards were taken
wide;" that "in shooting Hammersmith Bridge
they lost the distance they had gained;" that
"the boats were found to be too close together,
mid the Harvards gave way." All this goes to
show that the Oxford familiarity with the
river eonstitnted "odds" against the Americans,
Vihich were certainly equal to the six seconds
by which the yace was lost.
The great question of the relative merits of
the two systems of rowing is as as open a
question as ever, and will only be determined
when the English and American crews can
pull a straight race in neutral water, and with
crews as well matched as were those that
.contended for the palm yesterday.
The Harvards have certainly done gloriously

Deitiooratic party of the United States ought
to hold high the banner of universal freedom,
impartial justice and equality before the law;

This is the doctrine of the Republican party.
It is the doctrine, indeed, of the u tra- •ac i 1
Republicans.. It is totally at variance with
Democratic doctrine, and especially with the
doctrine of the Pennsylvania Democrats: The
Harrisburg platform, upon which Asa Packer is
placed before the people in this State as their
enudidate,is entirely at variance with the views
of dibleral Rosecrans. On the subject of the
national debt and the public. credit, Gcneral
Rbsecmns alSo differs widely from his , party,
more especially in Ohio, and the iepudiatiOn
ists, must feel very happy at having Pendleton
for their candidate when they read the follow
ing passage from Rosecrans's letter :
- -
• local declarations inviting a popular
prejudgnient Of any legal questions about the
terms of' payment of the national bonds should
impair the priceless value of the public credit,
at' a thilex ,- aen it is all-important to create the
speediest-means of, ridding the country of
'these enOrmous oppressions; but every Demo
eratic,platfbrm should tend to raise . higher and'
higher the public credit, and to satisfy the
people of Europe that the Democratic party
is the last party in the United States that pro
poses to whine or act reluctantly about the
payment of the public debt, even though its
present holders should have bought it far be
low its fair value." •
• This, too, is Radical Republican, doctrine,
and how Rosecrans, entertaiiiiik such views,
can still consent to be called a member of the
Democratic part:vas it now exists, is beyond
comprehension. But his letter is one of advice
mainly, and be is anxious for his party to be
regenerated, purified and , reformed. He has
undertaken "a big job," in setting about this
work of regeneration and reform, and he will
be hardly equal to the work. He knows that
the present leaders are not fit . for their places,
Mille says : "Should there be Democrats
whose mental organization of temper doeS
not permit them to • recognize existing
facts or conform their action to great
popular clunages, let them, for the public good,
abdicate the leadership, and leave the energies
o'f the people free to act in the line of life and
progress." Will the leaders take this advice
and abdicate ? Will any new leaders that may
be chosen adopt Rosecrans's policy of "univer
sal freedom, impartial justice and equity before
the law of all who liVe beneath the flag of our
country ?" Qr will they adopt his equally
sound views on the public debt? We rather
think not. The doctrines are good, but they'
are very for from being the doctrines of the ex
isting Democratic party.
Mr. Pendleton's chief claim to the admira
tion and support of the Ohio Democracy is,
that he is the author, and the boldest and most
eloquent advocate of a scheme of repudiation,
by which the Government shall refuse to fulfil
its to its Cieditors, and so destroy, its
credit anti bring laSting dishonor and disgrace
upon the nation. / It is a : somewhat singular
connnentary upon the elasticity and adaptabil
ity of Democratic principles, that two men,
holding such diverse and antagonistic views,
could stand successively upon the same plat
fot nt. As the nomination of Mr. Pendleton
makes the defeat of his pai:ty in Ohio more
nearly certain, we are glad that he, rather than
General Rosecrans, has been chosen as its can
didate. But if either one or the other had to
occupy the Executive chair of the State, we
should infinitely rather have the honest. man
than the ilishenest politiCian elevated to power.
Unconsciously, perhaps, General Itosecrans has
contributed largely to the defeat of Mr. Pendle

THE FAIRMOUNT FIREMEN.
3lr. William F. Smith, of the Twenty-second
Ward, Chairman of the Sub-Committee of the
Water Conimittee ; is out in a card in reference
to the :services of the firemen at Fairmount.
lle asserts that " the Chief of the'Fire Depart
ment was requested to furnish everything
needful to those who were engaged, and this
moming I asked him if he had the amount
pviided. Ills reply was that he would present
it to-morrow:"
is likely to be a little controversy as to
the filets of this case, as Mr. Smith's card and
the statements made by reliable members of
the Fire Department are not exactly
in harmony. These statements, which
we presume can be verified or dis
proved, are stibstatitially as follows:
The Hope Eniine went into service ,on Mon
day afternoon and remained on the ground
until Tbursday afternoon in , constant service.
Several other engines were also engaged in
pumping, at ditlerellt port ions of this time.
Neither fuel nor food were furnished by the
authorities dMing - thhi time, The - President
of the ilope Engine, finding that. this was the
case, advanced the necessary funds for his men.
mid engine,yelying, very properly, on the city
to refund, which will, of course, be done. Par
tial provision was made for the other com
panies by Chief Engineer Downey, on his own
responsibility, and it was, not until
it had been determined by the fire
men to desist from their work firr want
of supplies, that the interview spoken of by Mr.
Chairman Smith took place, and it was then
determined that the service's were no longer
needed: We give these facts as the statement
made to us by responsible menibersofthe Fire
DePartinent. it is true that:ol'e' , tre"mtl
were supplied with food and fuel,: we' aregiad
to know it, and to give the Water Committee
fall credit, for discharging so obvious i a duty.

Major Burnham \lTiulliyell is, the .Superin

Richmond. He is a Northern man, and a
plain, earnest, honest . and r .capablc, Officer in a

other instruments of torture; were in fregnent
use in the, 'prigo>a :,Oil hiS accession; they. Were
at once discarded; and reason, humanity and

in its government and discipline. The present
superintendent lightly looks upon convicts as
men; though fallen. .and still poSsewled.'of hit=
Man sympathies -and affeetaons, :t.s well as
human passions and vices. The discipline he
has instituted is-based upon this principle and
conformed to its dictates.
"In four months from the 'time of Major
Wardwell's accession to thb wardenship, more
than fifty conv=icts, who didnot know a letter
at that time, had learned, even with the limited
opportunities afforded them in the prison, to
read and spell ; many of them having advanced
far enough to read chapters in the Bible with
considerable fluency."
But Major Wardwell was a gallant Union
soldier . and is an earnest Republican citizen,
and is,.of course, very distasteful to the Rebel
gentry of Richmond. General Winder, Turner
Wirz would suit the Virginians better, as
they come so near their ideal of model jailors.
To dislodge Major Wardwell, all sorts, of
'Charges of maladminiAration have been
trumped up against him. He has been charged
with corruption, incompetency, neglect of duty
and other ofience,suntil the matter was brought
officially before the military authorities and a
Court of Inquiry took up the investigation of
the subject, and, during a trial of sixteen days'
'duration, sifted these charges to the bottom.
.The result, as Might have been expected,'has
: been the entire vindication of the accused. The
'folloWing extract from the letter of General
Canby's Adjutant to Major Wardwell gives the
substance of the finding of the Court :
"It is apparent that you have acted in some
cases in an irregular manner, and in others
have adopted such modes of action as are
novel and unusual, but in no case does it
appear that yeti have been guilty of wilful
neglect of duty or criminal or corrupt con
duct.
"The charge of 'incompetency' is plainly
proven to he untrue; and the witnesses whO
testified unmistakably prove that the dis

IHE GRAVE YARD DANCE
The PreNs apologizes for the G;ave Yard
Dance" at Gettysburg, this looming, and says
that the Springs Hotel is a mile from the (Na
tiOnal Grave lard ! It likewise remarks that
" perhaps this whole Gettysburg affitir is in bad
taste, but the ball was simply a part of the pro
gramme, and is no more open to ohjection than
any: other portion of it."
We presnMe that nobody was quite such a
literalist as to suppose that the "Grave Yard
Dance" was executed immediately upon the
actual mounds of the Gettysburg Cemetery.
The fact that the Springs Hotel is not in the
Cemetery does not make a particle of difference
in the shockingly bad taste of those ill-timed
and ill-placed festivities.
We agree. with the Press that "this whole
Gettysburg affair," so far as the attempted
atnalganottion with the rebel officers was con
eerned,,"Was in bad taste," and we said so
when it was tirst announced. But there WAS
no - impriipliety, -whatever ; in' assembling - the•
Union seTdiers of Gatyslotrg and marking out,
afresh, the disputed positions of that great
battle-field. That, iu itself, was eminently
proper, and open to no objection; - but the ball
at the Springs Hotel teas open to all the objec
tion that has, been made to it,• and the apology
of the Press is virtually a confession of tho.
Soundness of the criticism.
Some people have . doubted the efficacy of the
waters of the Gettysburg Springs. Their
doubts ought to be set at rest when they read
their.Marvelious elects produced on our_neigli
bar, the Press, as communicated by "special

here at 8 o'clock this evening. .
At 9 o'clock this .Morning the party, left the
Crawford House for the foot .'.of. the Motint
Washingtozeor."Sky,”•railroad, as it has been
aptly termed. The Pietddent, with Mrs.
Grant, first took a driire to the Notch,and then
met out, overtaking the rest of . the party on
the road: ,At the base , of the mountain rail
way the Pitsident passed some minutes in
e xamina:litni of -the- locomotive . used; iii this

of the importance
connected
brake. gxerytheng .of .mpertancei
connected With the Construction and rurtning
of the railroad was explained by Mr. Mande
the patentee of the road. At twenty minutes
of eleven the Presidential party ;haw
ingseated themselves in the • ear,,the locome.:
five bell rang, and the machinery-was ,eet.irt

nlO at the ••• rate of about :4 -mile in

iiittaite- feet in three miles. At',
Pr'otisetl.t"w'elite.brelock the train readied the
terminus atthe road, As it arrived -a salute
was tired froin a small ..c.aumi sent up for the
purpose.' The day was beautifully dear, not a
dead visible, and a strong cod wind was
blowing, funning lee in many places. After
having the different objects of interest pointed
out the party sat down to a flue lunch at.
the Tip To Howe. Tlefore making the . de r .
scent the Presidential party had their, plieto
graphs taken in a group. Upon reaching
the bottom of the road' the party resumed
their coaches and started for Bethlehem - The
President ,having set out in A light carriage, in
eonipanyWith Mrs. Grant, was overtaken a
few miles on the way, quietly unhitching his
horses. It was found thaethe double tree had
become detached. The accident was soon re
paired and' tbe party resumed 'the journey.
At a quarter-pa.st six the .Prcident. and Mrs.
Grant arrived at Bethlehem, and were re
ceived by ex-Alden:nen Samuel (.1. Cobb. of
Boston, and Judge Gilbert, of Brooklyn, N. Y.
About a quarter to seven the President and
famill and at'portion of the party took seats in
the Profile House chariot, drawn 1w eight
splendid bay horses, driven by their • owner,
\1 r. E. K. Cox. The President and son ,Tense
(Jectipied . the front seat with the driver. The
distance to the Profile House, eleven miles,
was ACConiplished , in exactly fifty-seven
minutes, the horses maldng - most of the way
at 'a dead run. The arrival of the President
here is a pleasing variation to the general at
tractioll.4 of the place. The party will leave
at nine in the niorning for lAttleton, reaching
Saratoga the same night.
Ben Wade and a few friends arrived here
this morning. On the summit of the White
Mountains a despatch was rer.eived announc
ing that the Harvard; were beaten in the boat
race. 'When informet of the result of the
rum the President remarked, "11'01, I am
very scirry to hear it."--llerald.

We, arc satisfied, that the arrangement be
tween the Company and men has been made
ingood faith on both sides, and that mining
will be partially resumed this morning, and
fully on Menday morning. It is true the vote
was participated in by but a part of the Hyde

have pledged themselves to abide by the de
cision of those remaining here, and those not
so pledged will find work resumed before, they

that at several of the coal openings, there are
a, few mules, cars, &c:, in readiness and at
the request of foremen and miners Mfr. Storrs
has given orders foi' Mining to begin at these
places this morning, and it is expected that
breaker or two will he started to-morrow.
The following Miners' Union notice has been
issued:
Notice to the Miners of the District of Jf.,de Park.
—At a meeting to-day in the Oe-operative

by balloting , and the result is that the basis has
been abandoned and Storrs's proposition

Outrageous Destruction of Church Pro
perty.
.A corre.spondent;mrlting, from Saud Patch,
pa,.,.to_ the Pittsburgh._ Catholic, gives the
rewing accountof st groia outrage perpetrated
at that place : "Some ruffians broke into the
Catholic Church at this place on last Satur
day afternoon, the 21st inst., and made a com
plete wreck of everything inside the Church.
The vestments were cut and torn into shreds.;
the, altar bread was scattered and trampled on
the floor ; the chalice and, platlin were broken
and hammered into a lump ;theffibernacle was
torn from thealtar and broken; the mass book
torn to pieces, and scattered over the pews and
floor, and the altar-cloth, &c., destroyed and.
besmeared with filth. Shell a complete wreck
was never before witnessed in any
,church. A
person strongly suspected of being the leader
of the pack of Tamils who committed this
dastardly act saved 'himself, by leaving the
place. The excitement among the congrega
tion is very great, anal feara are entertained
thatcertain suspected parties will suffer at the
hands of these outraged people. -The parties
most strongly - suspected are living in the
neighborhood, and if any positive proof can
be bad will be arrested. The church stands
away from the main road,and is so completely
surrounded by bushes that a person passing

particularly sharp; and so , speedily folldwed
by reports that it was'the' impression , of per

About half-past two o'clock, while the storm
was severest here, the' dwelling house of Mr.

slightly, &waged.; „The . electric, fluid struck.

and in its downward course entered the roof,
tearing, the shingles up ' for quite a space
around, the chltrinery, and then passed down the
chimney into the cellar. At the time ofthis CPC
inurnce Mrs. Wood was sitting in the house,in
close proximity to the chimney, and near by
in a cradle was her infant asleep. The shock
knocked Mrs. Wood from the chair, stunning
her for an instant. The infant was not dis

was knocked over and considerably shocked.
Neither were severely injured, though both
were badl3r Vcightened.

[Trom the Now York iferahl of to-day.]
FRIDAY, August 27.—The features'of interest in Wal
street to-day were the excitement and betting consequent
upon the boat racein' 'England, the Speenlatfons in the
Gold Roomand the fluctuations of Erie. As to the boat
race it attracted a great deal of attention, and groups
were gathered on the sidewalks in Wall and Broad.
streetathe: Whole day, laying • wagers before the race,
and commenting upon it after the result was known.
The-- first. despatch announcing - ,a,_ -victory a viete_ry for.
OXforrl 7- was followedlbk--one announcing ,the. Meyer&
men as wltmersi and no little confusion was the conifer
quenee. It 'ball the apparent authenticity of a tele
graPhic communication, and was doubtless a device to
enable the losere to "hedge." Such was its general
interpretatiOn vvlten the.:first despatch had been
confirmed. In Brie the revival of interest and ope
rations was evideneed 'in the crowd gathered at the
National Stock. Exchange and the constant passing to
.and fro of people between the two Excluutgeltailldings.
Thevrice opened in the.vicluity.of 34,, advanced to-36%
" cash,'" yielded to 3334, and .cbased at 94%. It is stated
that the company, in furtherance of the agreement with
Michigan Southern, . are to withdraw their
boats from ' the lakes, and give the business to
the— railroad. 'rho London• price advanced
day to 23. It is said. that Peter B. Sweeny,
who is one of the prominent director's, is a heavy pur
chaser of the sterling Stock, and that he is expected
within a week or (30 from Europe. As Jay Gould, )n the
capacity of receiver, still retains the power to cancel the
overissues, there is an apprehensien that in the process
of registration a "trap" will sprung on the heavy
short interest in Erie. A lively future is the immediate
prospect =for operations in it. The relit of the rail
ways were heavy at the opening, and declined
with a fall in New YOrk central, which went down from
203}; to - Hudson River went off to ltUi. The excep •
Cone to the' general decline were New Jersey Central,
which advanced to 10734' Pittsburgh, which rose to 108,
and Ohio and Mississippi, which touched 33. Lake Shore
wee steady; and feelingtime somewhat active, reaching
'10414. The easier money; and the expectation
of a favorable bank statement to-morrow led to a strong
!but dal market at the close.

[ Special Despatch to tho Phila. "Vening
WABIIINGTOZ, Aug. 28.—R iE knot, perhaps,
generally known that the Spanish Government
since' the' revolution' have had . no regularly..
accredited Minister at.. Washington. Senor
Lopez Roberti; who represented. Spain.here,
under Queen Isabella, was directed, when the
new government was formed, to remain here,
temporarily, until the internal affairs of Spain
could be so arranged as to permit the. Foreign
Secretary to give bis attention to reorganizing:
the diplomatic service. It is now believed in
diplomatic circles that Mr. Roberts has
received his credentials, as a
_representa
tive of the, new Spanish government, ana
will continue to remain hero. There is
some interest manifested as to whether he will
deliver an address when presenting . his cre
dentials to the President, or remain silent,.
without referring to the great revolution in
Spain and the present existing troubles in
Frond Washington.
:WAsitmyrws•: Aug. 28.-=Despatches to the
Navy Departnient were .received 'this • Morn,'
ing from Admiral, Rowan,''commanding the
Asiatic squadron, dated from the United
States flag-ship Piseataqua, Nokohanm, July
23.1 n anticipation of the war in the northern'
part of Japan ms indicated in previous des
patches), the Aroostook, Lieut.-Commander
- Bradford, had beeri Ordered to Ha.kodadi tb
:drew' any proteetion to Our Consul and any
Anierican interest that :might 'be there. On
the arrival of the ArMiStook at the latter plaee,
Lieut.-Commander Bradford found Enenmato
strongly entrenched and determined to resist
any attack on the part. of. the Mikado's land
and naval forces. As soon as the Mikado's
troopii got in the rear of Enettmato it was de
tenunied to make a combined attack by land
and sea:
The leaders' of both parties infornied the
Consuls and commanders of ships of, war that
they Would not he , responsfble for the safety
of foreigners in Hakodadi;: and, requested
them all to withdraw. The .American Consul,
and his numerous faintly and conneotiOns,
sought protection on, hoard of the . Aroostook,'
Rear-Admiral'-Rowan despatched the Oneida
to Hakodadi, where she arrived in time to
rake an equal portion of the persons who
sought our protection. The. Iroquois, Com
mander. Law, followed, to remain if neces
saryif, not, to return and report the state of
affairs.
:During, the seigc soine good- dashes were
made by both Sides. One of Ehetunato's ships
was handled withAluditY . , the Stonewall
was more than a match ter score like her.
Eneumato,, having lost his navy and hail his
fort knocked down by the Stonewall, surreul
dered to save useless loss of life, and is now 'la
prisoner in Yeddo. CoMmaoderWilliamS had
an interview with the commander-in-chief of
the successful forces, who told him that for
eigners would now be protected, whereupon'
he lauded all the women and children, and.
sent the Aroostook to-Nagasaki as directed.
The country is now at peace, and• likely to
remain so. The TyCoon is a voluntary
prisoner at - his - own :castle; with his fainily.
Tokagana, the must powerful and influential
Mince in the Empire hag been depriyed of
much lands income by order of the Mikado;
at, the instance.. no doubt, of the Southern
Princes, who combined, .and deprived the
Tycoon of the almost supreme power which,
his family had held for hundreds of years.
The Japanese Government bias advertised
fair proposals for the removal of Eneinuato's
sunken fleet froM the harbor of Hakodadi.
gear-Admiral RoWan, in a despatch dated
Yokohama, July 2,-reports the disposition of
the fleet as follows : The Piscataqua, flag
ship. arrived at Yokohama on the 21st of June.
The (Media and Idaho were at Nagasaki, the
Monocacy and Iroquois at Yokohama, the
