Sergeant Bradley was present, how- ever, and exerted himself to prevent the vandalism. The boys who refused to hold music books for the bandsmen, (who are un- provided with music-stands,) displayed some of the spirit of ‘ children of a larger growth ” who are quite willing to enjoy to the fullest extent the advantages supplied by their more

ublic-spirited fellow citizens, and yet re- use to subscribe a dollar or afford any aid whatever towards their maintenance. Such boys are not the most promising ‘‘ sprigs" of the growing generation, and will probably develop into just such ‘children of a larger growth.”

Searle Wins.

Lonpon, Sept. 9.

The race on the Thames for £1,000 and ithe championship of the world, over a course 4 miles and 3 furlongs long, between William O’Connor, champion oarsman of the United States and Canada, and Henry E. Searle, the Australian, was rowed to- day and was won by Searle. At Hammer- smith Bridge, a mile and three-quarters from the start, Searle led by two lengths. He won by six lengths. Time, 22.42. Searle won the toss for position, and chose the Surrey side of the river. O’Connor had the best of the start, and led by half a length to the boathouse. There were occasional squalls of wind dur- ing the progress of the race and off Surry the water was slightly lumpy. Otherwise the conditions were good. The betting dur- ing the forenoon was 21 to 20 on Searle and bets at these figures were taken rapid- ly ; finally the odds changed to five to four against Searle. The start was made at 1.23, with O’Connor rowing at a terrific rate. Soon after the start U’Connor caught a crab and Searle overtook him and gained a lead. Both men rowed splendidly though- out the race. But O’Connor seemed to have been overtrained, however, for after the first mile had been rowed he tired very quickly. The course was well kept. The attendance was large.

After Valuable Property. Cincinnati, Ohio, Sept. 9. The descendants of Benjamin Talbott, colored, have begun proceedings to recover 640 acres of land in the central portion of Loganport, Indiana. Talbott was a slave. He settled in Loganport fifty-three years ago, and bought 640acres of land from the government, which he occupied until the passage of the fugitive slave law, when he abandoned the property and fled to Canada. He never returned to claims it, but his children have placed the matter in the hands of an attorney, who claim that they have a sure case against the city. The property is worth several mil- lions.

The Great Strike.

Lonpon, Sept. 9.
