ANOTHER BRITISH OUTRAGE;
As we anticipated, yesterday, the r ocean
- Yacht-race terminated, nominally, in favor of
the Cambria. The mere fact of that vessel
-entering New York harbor, an hour and nine
teen minutes ahead of the Dauntless;ificlairned
by , the British denizens of New York as a
national victory. IloW little ground there is
for any such boast, we have already intimated.
The details of the trip, of the two yachts
-which will be found in another column, con
firm the opinion that the race really, established
the great superiority of the sailing - qualities of
the Dauntlese. The bold, but scarcely justi
fiable expedient by which the Cambria was re
lieved of her, dead weight, and the series of
accidents, only appreciable by the practical
sailor, which befel the Dauntless, fully account
for the apparent victory of the former, while
they show, that, calm* paribus, the American
yacht can - give large odds to her British corn
petitor
, Large 'sums of money were staked upon this
race, and we suppose the bets will be paid, as
no allowance for accidents was made in the
challenge. But we trust that Mr. Bennett will
insist upon a return race, and that a - course will
-be selected where the pithlic will be able to judge,
frotri'llayto day, of the actual performances of
the two yachts. The system of allowing the
vessels to run atnie - lien they cannot watch
,
each other's motions,-and to goso far out of
sight of land, that the public is kept in ignor
ance of any collusion, or secret treaty, that may
be mide berween the rival Pretvs; - should be
abandoned. We have large inland seas, where
these yachts might race for a month, without
the slightest interruption. They could touch
—at-varionspoints;at_night.,:and_have a_SerieS_of_
receptions," and in case of stormy weather,
could, postpone the conclusion of the race, until
.,.it cleared up.
We feel no chagrin at the result of this - ocean
race. The Cambria is owned by one of the
bloated aristocracy of Great Britain, and
British .arrogance and . British gold have tin
` doubtedly combined to win a short-lived victory
over American modesty and republican
The means by which this outrage was
perpetrated — are fully divulged by the special
correspondence which we publish to-day. If
British yachtsmen can take any comfort out of
such an unmeaning victory, they are welcome
- -
The real national victory, yesterday, was on
—the-American,side v as-rwe knew it would be.
But for the three hours consumed by the
Dauntless in attempting to rescue the men
who were lost overboard, she would have come
in triumphantly, at least two hours ahead. But
even apart from this consideration, it must be
remembered, when we talk of "national"
victories, that base-ball and not yachting is
.Americali . national , game. The splendid
victory , ,of the Athletics, at
_,yesterday, over the Red 8w Ai
ingS; more than counterbalances the
pretended victory of the Cambria. The Ath
letics represent the American, the Bed Stock
'riga the British element of manly prowess, as
theitiespective colors so well indicate. The
American " Blue and White" vanquished the
British " Red " in a fair field, at the very mo
ment when the Dauntless was politely following
her English guest up New York bay. This
ivas the real international contest, and America
has good cause to be proud of her "Athletic"
champions. Had the Athletic nine been on
board. the '"Dauntless, ' her log would have
showed a very different record, and she would
have showed her heels-10-theHed Stockings : Of
the Cambria in a way that all the British
" darn"-ing would not mend. '
- Taking the average of, the day's work, it
must be conceded that American skill and
daring have won another great victory, and
while gamblers and betting men may have won
and lost their money on the Cambria and the
Dauntless, the great heart of the American
people will swell with a just pride in the coin
' hined'achieverrients of the ball of Mcßride and
the boat of Bennett. Had things been differ
ent, the Dauntless would have beaten the
Cambria, "out of sight." That they were not
diffeient may yet add another complication to
the vexed Alabama controversy, the conse
quences of which we do not choose at this
time to anticipate.
THE TEST OF INFALLIBILITY
The conferring of the Divine attribute of
Infallibility upon Pope Pio Nono does not
seem to have produced any extraordinary sen
sation in the world, or to have been attended
with any such miraculous manifestations as
might reasonably have been looked for on such
an august occasion.
- The war between France and Prussia, how
ever, is likely to afford an unexpected practical
test of the Pope's infallibility, in the withdrawal
of the French troops from Rome. The tempo
ral as well as the. spiritual sovereignty of the
Pope is a dogma to which Pio Nono is fully ,
and sincerely committed. Now, lvbat if his
,temporal sovereignty:is to vanish almost simul—
taneously with the declaration of his infalli
bility 2. French bayonets have for years been
the_orily effective support of the Papal throne,
and tbeir Witbdrawalwill, in all human pro
bability, be followed by the downfall of the
Pope's secular power. But the infallibility
dogma of the Pope gives him this temporal
power, and it will be a most unfortunate be
,g-for-his-recognized-infallibilityrif—he—ifl-
shownlv have made such an egregious blun
ar its to declare the perpetuity of functions
yakh'ipasissirpy allackst with the day in which'
the Ecumenical Council proclaimed him infal-
The. Ocree of the Pope's infallibility.isthe,
most extraordinary manifestation of the faith
which the , hierar,chy.o the Roman Church has
in itself, that has been presented to the world
in modern times. The` engrafting of a new
article, of abstract faith into the creed of .the
Buren, such as the doctrine Of the luirnacu
!late Conception; bad nothing hi - le which ap
peals to the common sense Of theAvorld, or the
testimony of history. It is a theological 03 7 ,
straction, which can only be proved to be false'
by the same processes of reasoning by which
it is proved to be true. Rut this new 'dogma
bas a practical about it which con
fronts it at once with the judgment and com
mon sense of the intelligent people of all coun
tries; and with the records of all secular and
:ecclesiastic history. The world at large will,
apply practical tests to the assumption of Papal
infallibility, and weighing the contradictions
which the lives and teachings of past Popes
exhibit, and the fallibility of judgment and
policy which mark the reign of the present
Pontiff; the masses will reject, if they do not
ridicule what the priesthood, in its devotion to
central power, will accept and teach:
When the people of the Roman Catholic
faith cordially accept the new dogma of-Papal-
Infallibility, there will be no. difficulty in in
vesting the Pope with all the other attributes
of Deity, save the one which he would, pro
bably, most covet, the attribute of Immortality.
TIIE DiCItENS SALES.
•If Charles Dickens-had-been an American,
and if, in a month after his death, his pictures
and other •honiChold gods had been sold at
auction by order of : big e;cecutori the English
Would have raised their.. hands in., holy horror
at the sacrilege. But lir. Diekens was an Eng
lishman ; he died on the 9th of June, and pre
cisely one month later—on the Oth : ofJuly—•-
all the art-treasures and choice relics of the
author were put uplat_ public sale, and were
scattered_ far: a.nd.wide.. The readers of, the
BuLi,ETi,x„ have ,:been
,informed of this sale ;
and of die high prices- the • articles • brought.
They have doubtless felt the pang that every
man of refinement must` feelat the ruthless
and hurried dispersion of such a quantity of
articles, each of which was dear to its late •
owner, nearly, every one having some personal
or other association to enhance its value. But
•
have seen no expression of • ' • • • •• • ' 1
we have seen no expression of regret in any
English journal that the Sale should have taken
place, and as Mr. John Forster, the friend and
executor, ordered it, and presided at it, and
managed it in such a way as to add nearly ten
thousand pounds to the assets of the estate,
the transaction is looked upon as admirable
and commendable. Grant that the will di
-rected,the,Sale-tn- talie.Tplaeo vasAt7diC,there
might still to have been arrangements for buy
ing ~everything, jo. The other property and
the copyrights - areof themselves aloritme suf
ficient to have warranted this.
L:Now that the household treasures are gone,
the house at Gad's Hill is to go next. The.
sale is to take place on the sth of August, and
the property is described in the adi'ertisements
as follows:
" GADS-MILL _PLACE, Ro-
CHESTER, RENT.-A very valuable and beau
tiful Freehold Residential Property,' delight
fully situated,- only--ono , --and-one-half miles
from the Higham Station, two and one-half
from Rochester, on the Southeastern and Lon
don,_ _Chatham__aucl__DAw_er.
within an hour_and a half of the metropolis,
comprising in the whole about twenty-six
aeres;_lor
_many - years the_favorite - home of
Charles "Dickens. b'oliciforS," Messrs. Farrar,
Curry & Co., No. 66 Lincoln's-lnn-fields."
If Charles Dickens had been a common
place man, or a mere gossip like Horace Wal
pole, about the sale of whose trumpery at
Strawberry Hill so much has been said and
written, the unseemly and precipitate disper
sion of the things he loved and valued, and the
sale of his`liouse, would not have been likely
to excite regret. But there were people in this
country at least, who hoped that Gad's Hill,
with its relics of Dickens, would have been
preserved undisturbed, and that they could
visit it in their English journeyings, as they
visit Stratford or Abbottsford or Newstead
Abbey, at each of which places there are
memorials of the great genius that has en
nobled it. But the executor evidently wanted
to add to the funds of the estate, though with
out this sale, it was said to be worth £BO,OOO
sterling, Or $400,000. There is no doubt
that the sale was managed well, and perhaps
the peculiar domestic relations of the deceased
made it inconvenient to retain the house and its
contents intact. But it does - seem shocking
that-within a month from the time of his death,
nothing movable that was his remained there,
and that within less than two months his
"favorite home" will be sold.
MORE WORK TO BE DONE
We indicated, recently, a field of work for.
the Citizens' Association, in inducing the Board
of Health and such other municipal authorities
as may be charged with' a. portion of the re
sponsibility, to clear the sidewalks of Philadel
phia from the incumbrance of the rubbish
which accumulates on vacant lots. There is
another branch of this general work which
does not come so directly within the scope of
the Citizens' Association, but which is of equal
or greater importance to the health, cleanliness
and comfort of the city. We refer to the
widely-common practice of depositing kitchen
garbage in the public streets. This odious
practice is not confined, by any means, to the
small streets and back alleys of the suburbs.
It prevails to a disgusting extent in many of
the principal streets, although a direct violation
of a well-known ordinance, as well as of all
ordinary rules of neatness, deceney and regard
for the rights and comfort of others.
We do not suggest this nuisance to the Citi
zens' Association. Its suppression belongs to
the constables and police of the city, and it is
a shameful thing that they are permitted to
neglect this important duty as they do. It is a
duty out of which there is probably not much
money to be made, as it would be successfully
discharged, in nine-cases out-of --ten r -by---the
mere official caution to offenders that prosecu- . .
tion would follow a continuance of the of •
fence., But althoughthere may not be much
money to be made out of it, it, is certainly the
duty of the - Board of Health to call the atten
tion of the Mayor to this prevalent nuisance,
. while it is the duty of that officer to hold his
lieutenants responsibicrfor the enforeement of
the - ordirTaifeoliTtlidirtSSpectiVe - distritte. - The
day patrolmen, lortbe most part, have nothing
whatever to do, and -nothing would be more
profitable than to have them employ a portion

cif their leisure time hi breaking up this rn
t
sauce. t
in many parts of the City this dlity habit of
depositing the offab of the kitchen in the streets
is the principal difficulti the, - Board of Beath
encounters in keeping the streets clean. There
is plenty of law to _prevent it, but thexe is no
serious effort to enforce the law, and so long
as housekeepers are permitted to make such
use of the public • streets, ft is scarcely to be
wondered at that,the contractors do not keep
them clean The 'practice is offensive to the
senses, injun health and discreditable to
the city. And the, worst of it is that there is
no necessity for it, if the police, instead of
idling away their time in lounging at street
corners, where they are not wanted, are made
to earn their pay by giving some attention to
the enforcement of this and other well-known
ordinances.
THE rosir-otticE—ANii
STATES-COCHIN IN THIS. CITY.
; In many small ;:towns . througlfFn-ft the coun
;try are seen 'stylish; spacious and elegant hifild
ings for Post-Office, and !United States, CouitS
!purposes, Here in Philadelphia, the second,
city of. the Union; it is difficult to find where
the United States Courts are, or how , to get to
'them. One has to grope through a long,
crowded, ill-ventilated - passage-way, Or to:pais
around to a ; little back street, there to find
the court rooms in an upperstory; to be
reached by a steep, narrow, dingy and Over
crowded 'stairway. Think, of
Your. judges, ••attorneys, merchants
•and witnesses of both sexes ,thins.'groping
about to find' .an institution wherein ~United
States justice is dispensed. One, is Made . almost
'to doubt the quality of the justice adminiitered
-therein when accommodations so Meagre and
contracted meet the eye. • ,;• ••
• As to the Post-Office, it is notoriously insuf
ficient in room for many branches of its
business. Its - money-order room, for instance, .
IS-not larger than an ordinary clotho-press,
and may fittingly be. called a "small .burean," .
The e whole lmilding is greatlY• deficient, in
ventilation, and is dependent, during the heated
term, on windows opening into the, adjelning
yard on the west, or its supply; Owing to
these windows being temporarily, bloekedi`up,
a few days ago, by the neighbors pa*ing
boxes, a - melancholy • catastrophe. 'came near
taking place. A wholesale suffdcation of the
„Are army of cler s V a about.' to liaPP;
giving the coroner a big job of bnsittess 'and,
the dry „goods men a heavy demand for crape.
But the neighbor kindly hastened to the fescue
and tore: doWn, hater - ';‘ 3 Mier; 'the 'Pile. 'of
packing-boxes, thus admitting a rush of air to
the gasping crowd.
In the early part of the year the authorities
_(through_the_newspapers)led_the_p4blic_to_en!_
tertain great expectations of having a splendid
public building erected on the chief thorough
fare. The properties -from the:Post=office 'to
Fifth street,' and back to Library street,'Were
to be purchased at °nee, and the work 'was to
go bravely on, but it did---;not; So -with many
other improvenients to which Philadelphia is
entitled at :the hands of the United States
Government, which is now spending millions
upon Post-Office buildings fol New York and
Boston. , Our people and press should revive
the agitation of this question of a new govern
ment building for the Post-Office and United
States Courts, and by the time Congress re
-ass-ernbles-we--mayientan-d—an—appropriation=
for the purpose.
The Society foj the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals ought to interfere in behalf of the
policemen of Philadelphia. It is nothing short
of cruelty to these poor,' overworkedsreatures,
to compel them to wear thick white cotton
gloves in the dog-days. Grained that they are
a purely ornamental institution, our ornaments
should have regard to the varying times; and
seasons, and we cannot but be moved to pity,
when we see these victims of municipal
fashion perspiring in those white gloves which
afflict their wearers during the day, and increase
the domestic " wash" at night. Why is this thus ?
Gloves seem to be a special weakness of the
present police admiustration, but it Mr. Fox
and Chief Mulholland would allow their men
to handle their duties without gloves; during
the dog-days, they would only be acting hi ac
cordance with the gentle humanities of the
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals,
and as the fashionable world is ont of town,
its delicate sensibilities will not be shocked by
the slight deviation from the /ijettiOf full dieSs:

of Grant's administration were about 560,300,-

Johnson's terin, half this excess being from

E CHINESE WORK
IFNIit 14) a Plautatlaa.
On Wednesday, we passed near the Milian
don plantation, now;owned by Mr. - Merrill, iii
conjunction with several other gentlemen.
We .took - the:occasion- to'. ascertain how .the
Chinese laborers, who, a few weeks ago, came
down the river; and are now at work on the
plantation, were doing, and liow far their em
ployers were satisfied with their experiment
of Chinese labor on the sugar field. •We were
informed by the manager. Mr. Kingsly, that
the enterprise Is undoubtedly a success, unless
some disturbing 'element - arises, - which. cannot
at present be forseeen. The Chinese plow in
good style,'equally as ;well as trained colored
plowmen. They are as yet a little slow with
the hoe, but are :constantly improving; and
they work with a steady perseveranceduring.
all the allotted bohrs• Of labor.
It has been mentioned:)Jefore ire this paper
that the Chinese appear unwilling to engage
as laborers on-plantations or. farms, unless in
large numbers. This may easily be accounted
for by. obvious reasons. In addition - to this,
it scums that in their work..they pay little
attention to any directions given, unless such
Affeetions come - tbrouglf - Ilie - tinidium - bf their
nead man. This is the case with the Chinese
on the Millandon plantation. They attend
ire licit]. to any . direction s iren by their chief,
however.. This e ef, so ar as we can aseer
tain,,appears to be a man a .superior cast or
rank, and as such;-o.ounnanc.l..the , respect of
his more plebeian followers. Ife Wears a
specks of bracelet on his arm, which seems to
he the emblem of authority ; and be is proba
bly of the Chinese aristocraOy of learning.
At any rate r as long as things aresatisfactOrily
arranged with the leading man there appears
to be no fear of trotible With the subordinates.
John Chinaman seems to entertain a ,very
lively,sense:ofhisrownintercinanylargairt
be makes ; andlli - e7nian of the Flowery King
dom is not a whit behind the descendants of
Canaan's conquerors in business shrewdness.
Be has a keen relish, tooi - fOf getting hold of
the right end of the asparagus—for having the
Uest of a bargain. This was shown ~bysotue
keen manceurring to arrange the system, of
labor for tire days and a half each week,while
, gettirig paid for six days. He is open to -rea
son, however, and acknowledging with be
witching candor that he would not like to
work-six da3 s and get paid for five and a half,
be was brought 'by Yankee astuteness to
acknowledge, also, Otattherule oughtto work
both ways; so John was Ithally contented to
obtain remuneration to the extent of his labor
and no more.
We had sonic opportunity to learn what the
c - tilel - ed man thinks of his new competitor,
-and=how=far—thartiAikely—to—itartnonize
together. One man said that the plentifulness
of Chinese labor would have the effect of
stirring up some of the lazy folks, and make
them open their eyes, when they found that
labor was so plentiful; that they could no
longer loaf until the meal barrel was empty
and the last fat side gone, and then go to work
for sonic one who was glad to get them.
Another said no decent colored man need
trouble himself about John Chinaman," cause
you see, boss, dat any man's got a head on his
shoulders, airs williu' to use ge arms an' leg,
kin anus git wuck dis conntry, caze dare
alias plenty to do:' One old auntie, who
looked as if born in the year one, said the
Chi " very - good people; don't do nutria
to nobody : mind der owmbisuess."
Generally, there was no feeling of jealousy
among the colored folks in the , neighborhood
of the Chinese, and the prospect seems to
promise CC t•SS.—Ne7 0)-lerms. ci:al7,ll,:r

TIMESDAY, July 28,1870.—The Secret treaty question
le agitating all Europe at this time, but it fails to attract
much attention on this side of the water, and the general
financial markets arc devoid of special feature. Money
continues active, the better tone of the Stock mark'
having increased the demand for call loans considerably.
but it is also easy, the supply being - fully equal to all
the wants. • The Banks generally prefer to employ their
funds on call, so as to keep them well under control for
any sudden pressure which may occur. Tne rates are 5
a 6 per cent, on choice callaterals. and at 6 a 8 per cent.

this morning, the neighborhood of-the Central

into--a state of excitement by a report of a
fiendish murder. _
About the hOur named a son - of James Cus

the police station; was aroused from his sleep
by a noi.se "as of a - struggle in an adjoining
rem, "Upon reaohing — it - =he — diseovereti
his mother lying prostrate Upon the floor with
a strap or bridle, with - which her husband had
attempted to strangle_her;.Arawn-_, tightly_
. _
around her throat.
Finding his purpose defeated-by the tippear
ance of the son; Custus procured a razor from
the bureau drawer, and before the son could
interfere, cut a fe - atfuhgash in his wife's throat,
extending from ear_ to ear, and producing in
stant death.
The exhausted condition of the woman pre
vented her offering any resistance. No definite
cause is assigned for the act, but it is said
there had been a dish - didty - h - ewc - cor them for
several days_past.
Pools.of.blood were upon the floor, and the
prints of the bloody bands of the murderer
were on the walls and along the staircase,
which gave to the crowds of visitors a horrid
rea ildtbsT - a df=tli - e - blo - bdr - deed - thatruad - ht •

Custtislild-the razor in the _fireplace, _hnt

He was arrested in the room where the
