The following account of the interna tional boat race at Laehine, Canada is from the New York Tribune At .r>: 10, amid great applause, the two crew* rowed up to the starting point. The St. John men first disrobed, partially stripping to a neat uniform of scarlet. The Tyne ercw were in flesh color. The contrast in the appearance of the crew was marked the St. John men were slander in comparison with the round and chubby Tyne, but made up in length their de ficiency in thickness. At 5; 17, amid breath less excitement, the starting-gun was fired, aud both crews gave way. The Tyne men pulled very far hack with a more natural stroke than the St. John. The latter ptilleil to their perpendicular and stopped; then gave the next stroke quick as thought. For the first 200 yards they rowed together; then the Tyne boat crept ahead. This was the .39 strokes per minute for the Tyne men and 44 for the St. John, and as the former gained, the star of St. John was in the descendant. At this time. too. a fresh breeze, almost a squall, struck the water ahead of the boats, and made it exceedingly difficult pull ing. This was just the mishap the St. John crew deprecated in advance. Fulton, their stroke, a day or two before the race, declared that in rough water it would he no fair test of the relative abilities of the crews, and here in five minutes’ time the water, from the effect of this most inopportune breeze, began dancing and splashing in a way most uncomfortable j for the light shells of the crews. They plucki ly held on, however, though as the breezo j struck the Paris crew it required little stretch of the imagination to observe the expression of distrust ution Fulton's sedate countenance. The Tyne men did not mind it so much, as their slower stroke made it easier for them than for the othere to row in the wind, and they pulled on out at sea. (iff in the dim distance rowed the crews, followed by the straining eyes of the multitnde, and fiehl-glasses, opera-glasses, and telescopes innumerable, to the last limit of vision. Tho Tyne men held their advantage. Owing to the very imperfect arrangements made by the manager, there were no facilities extended to representatives of the press for following up the race, the small tug of Mr. Allen being the only steamer to follow thelioats, and the state of the crews at different points in the race had to be ascertained from persons stationed along the shore. At Stony Point, half a mile from the start, the Tyne boat was some 80 yards in advance, with a stroke of 39, St. Johns settling down at 42. and both pulling splendidly. At one and three-quarter miles the Tynes were 130 yards ahead, and turned the stake-boat, three miles distant, about 200 yards in advance. Here the Tynes turned well, but held a little on the start backward. St. Johns had lessened the gap somewhat when it started on the home stretch, but the steady sweep of the Tyne men kept them well ahead, pulling at 38 per minut the St. Johns rowing at 40. While the boats were out of the limit of dis tinct vision, at the starting-point, where tho vast multitude were assembled and the excite ment was eager, those who had money in tho St. John crew wanted to hedge, anil those who had it on the Tyne crew didn’t object to going more where they could Hud takers. As the boats on the homc-stretch began to come in sight, the interest grew more intense, and many of the knowing ones witli field-glasses declared that the St. John men were ahead. These were critical and dangerous moments with betters, and a man's money was won or lost in a few seconds. As the crews began to be visible through the glasses, the rumor ran through the crowds the Tyne’s are ahead, and so it proved. Nearer and nearer drew the boats, and at last amid the cheers of thousands the Tynes rowed down the course between the steamers, and passed the stake in 40 minutes 59 3-4 sec onds according to one authority, according to another in 39 minutes 14 seconds. It reflects very seriously upon the management of this race that there was no such thing as official time taken. The St. John men rowed pluek ily, about 12 lengths behind, spurting up to 47 strokes per minute, the Tynes doing 42 at the finish. Tlius closed the race. The sympathies of the larger portion of the crowd were with tho St. John men. as might have been expected; but the victors received the heartiest congrat ulations, and the best of feeling prevailed. It is greatly to tic regretted that the course was not smooth, as the St. John crew particu larly desired the race in smooth water, and cannot feel dissatisfied with the race as it took place. Still, though it may be humiliating to American pride to confess it, the truth un doubtedly is, that the Tyne crew were much the stronger men, and would probably have won in any case. The Prussians, it is now reported, will not recognize the republic in France. The Acting Commissioner of Internal Rev enue authorizes a denial of the statement that the sureties on the official bond of Mr. Bailey, the defaulting Internal Revenue Collector of New York, will not be made to sutler. Bailey has been presented by the Grand Jury on the charge of embezzling 8131.0O0 of government money and suit brought against the sureties named on his bond to recover the amount of the government’s loss, and the case will 'be prosecuted to the extent of the law.

The nomination ol' Klcazer W. llntciiin-on of liucksport as Superintendent of tlio lie form School, has been confirmed by the Ex cutive Council and approved by the Governor. Joseph W. Symonds of Portland, was yes- terday appointed iiy tile Governor one of the Commissioners to continue the revision of the Statutes, in place of lion. Woodbury Davis, declined. A daily sheet called the “State Fair lte- porter," issued by Brown A Abbott, is pub lished during the four days of the Fair. It is a newsy and spicy little paper, and has a large gratuitous circulation. At a special meeting of the trustees of the Insane Hospital, hidden at the institution oa Tuesday, Capt. Win. E. Milliken of Pem broke was chosen Steward and Treasurer.— He will enter upon the duties of his office the first of October. We are advised on what we deem good au thority, that James M. Iiagar, Esq., Repub lican elect in Richmond, is erroneously classed ns a Democrat. We understand that Mr. iiagar has always been a Republican, and was chosen Representative against the regular nominee on a loenl issue having no relation whatever to the Senatorial issue. Persons who visit tht* trotting park this week more especially for the examination of stock horses, cannot have failed to notice the beautiful stallion, "Gen. l’rim,” owned and j exhibited by Mr. Luther Maddocks of Booth bay. This horse in harness and moving about the track, makes a most graceful ap pearance. He is a Drew horse, of dapple grey color, and has been kept for stock pur poses the past year. It may he remembered that a sail accident occurred at Mt. Desert, Maine, in the sum mer of 18(57, by which seven persons lost their lives by being upset in a sail boat. Every effort was made at the time to recover the bodies but without success. Dflring the past summer a Mr. Spaulding of Iron liuund Island, while fishing near the spot where the necidt nt happened, drew up from the bottom a portion of a mat with one or two bom in the sleeve. Last year a ladies shawl was drawn up in the same place by fisherman from Bev erly, Mass. McEttrick the pedestrian lias arrived in tins city and is stopping at the Mansion House. His success as a pedestrian has been all the most sanguine could hope for and as an hihition of his walking feats may take place here, it will not be out of place perhaps to 1 give a brief sketch of the man with some of the most notable matches in which he has been engaged, McEttrick was horn in Roxbury, Mass., and is now twenty-five years of age. He graduated at the Latin High School in that vicinity some years since witli high honors, is strictly temperate, not using tobacco or liquor, i in any form, to which fact he »c doubts owes his remarkable physical endurance. He is feet 10 inches high, of slender frame yet with finely developed limbs. His style of walking is both graceful and easy which combined with his scholarly and gentlemanly attain- ments makes him an exception to the general run of pedestrians. His first match was with 1). A. Scott for the championship of New England, which he won. After lie had walked a number of matches and won them all he walked against time and won making seven miles in 58 minutes and 3il seconds. He defeated a contestant for the championship of Australia and California, also John Ilay dock of London in n 100 miles walk for the championship of America, heating him seven miles. After this he walked twenty-five miles I with Jack tidily of London whom lie defeated three miles. As we said in a former issue j McEttrick has made the best “100 mile time” on record—time being exclusive of rests 18 hours, 43 minutes, (six miles an hour.) Ilis record thus (ar is “clean” for in the numer ous matches he has walked as well as those we have cited he has never met with a defeat. Nad Accident. '\Vatkhvii.i.b. Sept. 21. I At about 11 o’clock yesterday forenoon the j staging gat e way on the Chapel of Colby I'niversity, by which three workmen w ere thrown headlong dow n on to broken pieces ol bricks and granite from the third story. Mr. Kleazer Getchell, a mason, had his wrist and arm broken and badly shattered, and a deep cut in ids hi ail, but is considered not danger ously wounded. The other two were curriers, one had his back severely bruised and his head cut in several place. The other was horridly mangled, and it is feared that his wounds may be fatal. Kappa, The Murderer lloswell. Yesterday morning, lloswell. the assassin, manifested for the first time since the murder, unmistakable signs of penitence and remorse. Our reporter visited him nt his cell, and upon nodding recognition, lloswell fell to weeping bitterly; his general appearance and demean or betokened intense mental suffering; bis eyes were bloodshot and appeared swollen; on being asked if he rested well during the night, he replied—“I think I slept a little;’’ he was asked if his appetite was good, and re plied—“1 have’nt any appetite. The crime for which lip is incarcerated was not directly alluded to during the interview, except by his voluntary remark that—“If my wife will only testify to the truth, on the stand, it will go easy with me." This lie repeated several times with much earnestness. “It was my love for my wife that brought me here!” he exclaimed. “O. how I did love her! How 1 did love her!” and other expressions of like character seemed to escape involuntarily from his lips. On being asked if he iiad relations living, be again broke into a Hood of tears, and said he had uncles, “very respectable persons, one of them u noted physician,'' whom ho desired never to again see, and whom lie hoped would never hear about him. Our reporter’s interview lasted about eight minutes, and his opinion of the prisoner after taking leave ot hiui, is that he is now a deep ly dejected and sorrowful man, in wide con trast with the defiant,exultant and vengeance stated state of mine manifested by Ills conduct and remarks at the time of his arrest. If his crime was not committed under the impulse of an intense mental excitement, growing out of his own supposed wrongs, hut' was the result of premeditation, such trials as that of McFarland’s of New York city, may not only have been at the bottom of this, hut also may be even now laying the foundation, for more of the bitter fruits. Law ought to in all such eases at least, to he faithfully exe cuted, and while perhaps there may he hon est differences of opinion in relation to the mode of punishment, on a fair conviction, the lawful punishment should in no case tail to be administered. Gentlemen from out of town should ro* fail to visit the popular Clothing and Furn ishing Goods Store of S. \V. Huntington Co.. 100 Water Street. You are always sure ot finding the largest assortment of their class of goods to be fouml in the city. And as they have but one price you will be certain to get your money’s worth. They have just received the largest stock of gents' driving gloves ever offered in the city. Visitors to the Fair must not fail to see and examine the Champion Self-fastening Ulind Hinges on exhibition in the State House*.— They are the simplest and most effective we have ever seen. They arc* easily hung, can't I be blown off, fasten the blind securely, close j easily, and are sold cheap. We understand that county and town rights are for sale, and cousider it a rare chance for a smart man. septal-tot A Gkxtm: Whisper to Mothers.—If un fortunately you have lost your own teeth hy neglect or mi management, take care that your daughters do not suffer the same penalty from the same cause.
