All honor to the Vigilant! Gal lantly she bore the Stars to Victory Saturday against the best boat that Britain could build. In a contest eminently fair, with a breeze fitted well to test the racing qualities of both, she administered a signal de feat. The race was an international one in every respect. It was America against the British Empire. Ire land furnished the noble Earl who so chivalrously sought the trophy carried hither in 1851 ; Scotland produced the designer and the yatch, and England the club which is Bponsor for our visitor. From her keel to the pennant she flies the Valkyrie is British, owned by a peer of the realm, manned by a crew from Wight, sailed by a Channel Bkipper, and of design essentially embodying British ideas. The victor is American, typical and thorough. She is built of American material, sailed by a Yankee cap tain and a Yankee crew and owned by a number of patriotic gentlemen, whose sole object and glory in her construction is that she might re tain the cup emblematic of the su premacy of the Bea. In kuilding her the centerboard was made the feature of her design. With it the Volunteer, the Puritau aud May flower had sailed to glorious victor ies. It was American in origin as in practice, and played an import ant part in the conquest of Satur day. Though the fullest of fair play ■was given the Valkrie, there was not a single American who was not anxious and hopeful for the success of the Vigilant. From the humblest tenant about the docks to those who live behind the brownstone fronts and the oak doors of the aristocratic residential portions of New York there was an interest intense in the result. Men and women, too. who scarce could tell a yatch from a Cunardcr gathered about the wharves and the newspaper offices and scanned every bit of news and eagerly listened to every rumor that might tell of the progress of the race. They knew nothing of the boats or their merits, but they did know it was America against Britain, and because of that their joy knew no bounds when it was iearned that the home boat had won. On the water outside the Hook there was a city full of people, whose hearts and voices went out in a great chorus of jubilation as the Vigilant won. But in that jubila tion there was not one word of dis credit for the \ alkyrie nor one sentiment of disrespect for her dis tinguished owner, forin defeat Dun raven is a worthy foe, accepting his reverse as a sportsman should, lie has done all that any Briton could, and failed, as others did. In the other races to be sailed he will en deavor to make amends for the de feat of Saturday, but every Ameri can will have confidence in the ability of the Vigilant to repeat her victory. —— —« The old soldiers are not singing •'As We Go Marching Through Georgia" over iu Ohio this fall, but "As Georgia does .Marching Through Us."

The present business condition can be compressed into a sentence. Those who have money for perman ent investment do not know whether the dollars they will receive in re turn for those they invest now will be worth one hundred cents or only fifty. Until they can be satisfied on this score their dollars will remain locked up in banks cr private safes, and the business of the country will continue only from hand to raout'u. There are crops in abundance, there is plenty of material waiting to be manufactured into the necessaries and luxuries of human use, thou sands of workmen are anxious to employ their trained bands and acute intellects in making the goods, there are backs to be clothed and stomachs to be filled—in short all the elements of usual business pros perity are waiting to be set in motion by an authoritative assur ance that our financial system is or will be on a sound basis. AX IX FA 'l'll KK Lr Y ACT. Tlarltu J. Hurke Swvnr« That HU Tivo Ho) » Were Thieve*. Judge Bregy of Philadelphia, on a writ of habeas corpus yesterday discharged from the house of Re fuge Martin and Joseph Burke, aged respectively 12 and 10 years, who had been committed to that in stitution on the oath of their father, Martin J. Burke. It appeared that the father had sworn before the Magistrate that the boys were given to pilfering, whereas the worst thing that cool\l be said against them was that tbev had stolen some grapes from a neighbors arbor. Burke said lie was out of work at the time and as he was unable to support the chil dren lie had taken this action to re lieve himself of their charge. He was at present conducting a laundry on North Second Street, nnd was anxious to get them back. The managers of the House ot Refuge would have dischsrged the boys, but as there was some dispute among their relatives as to who should have the custody of the children the matter was left for the court to decide. The Judge said that it was an infamous thing for a father to swear that his children were thieves when such was not the case. lie awarded the children to the father, and if he did not support them properly they would be given to their grandmother.—Phila. Tones. Au Important llrcinluu. The supreme court this week handed down several important opinions, among them that relating to partition of fence lines, which is ol special interest to farmers. It has been held by many eminent lawyers that when the fence law of 1700 with regard to outside fences was repealed in IBS 9, that the act of 1842, which required the erection of line or partition fences, not being specified in the act, continued to re main a law. On the other hand lawyers of high standing claimed that the act of 1842 was repealed by implication when the act of 17uo was removed from the statute books. But Judge McClure held that the law of 1842 is valid and Judge Dean has sustained him in this view, the point of difference being where the supreme court held that in the case ot Barber vs. Mensch, that the defendant should have seen that there was sufficient fencing to keep in his own cattle, notwithstanding tho fact that there had existed between, the litigants an agreement for each to keep up one-half of the fence. Hereafter then, according to Judge Dean's de cision, a man who wishes to pasture cattle must see that the whole par tition or line fence is sutllcienl to keep his cattle on his own prciui.-es, with the right to recover on© half of the cost of the fence from his ad joiner. In other words, the su preme court holds tliut all ngrer.. inents between parties for the main tenance of one-half by each will not stand, and that the man who wishes to pasture his cattle uiiivt see to it that they do not damage his adjoin er. In cases where you have al ready built your half under un agreement your only remedy against your adjoiner who refuses to build his half is to construct the fence and then put viewers on under the actoflMito recover the uust of your fuljoiner's half. , EST HI.
