The race will be unusually Interesting this year from
the fact that the start Of three four of the leading

throughout the race will slmoe to certainty determine
the result Of the contest in their class. Alter this

ENTRIES FOR THE REGATTA.
The entries which had been made up to last evening
for the regatta of the NewYork Yacht Club, which
comes off on Thursday next, we print below. AS the
time for entering closes at IL o'clock this morning, is
probable that the list is pretty nearly complete. Owing
to the extremely unfavoable weather of late many OF
the yachts have not yet been measured. We there
fore compile the size of their sails from the Cub-Book
for 1858, from which, we presume there will be but lit
tie variation The yacht Rebecca having been fitted
with larger suit of sails is entered in the first class
In const uence of Mr. Coyers sickness bis new yacht

she was tried yesterday, and her performance was
quite equal to the expectations of her builder.

1t thus appears that from the foundation Of our

of this Government, exclusive OF the public debt,
were 81 9l9, $780, For the next fiscal year-probaby

ulation then 39290OO being less than 81 cents to
each inbsbitant. Our expenses have now increased
TO SS 600 600 this year. and 1913 600 900 next year,
making Oil average of 8 to escn nhabtant. In 1881,
in Gen Jacksons time, the expenditures were Sl3.-
coo 0G0 and the population was nearly as many null
ions The amount to each nhabtant was 81 Us. In
1910 IL amounted to 81 40 to each inhabitant But new
it is So to each inhabtant $50 to every free family
upon the basis OF the census OF lS1O showing the
number of families to be 800, 331, or $23 to every
voter Of the 4362 $50 at the Presidential election OF
1856. While the population has increased sevenfold
the expenditure has increased, up TO 1897 thrtysix
fold ana up to this year, forty.eight fold.
The aggregate expense of Mr.. Pierce 9 Administra-
ton, exclusive of payments on the public debt, was

MOBILE, Jan. 26.-There was an enthusi-
astic and largely attended Nicaragua meeting
in this city last night. Speeches were made
by General VIM. Walker, Parson William G.
Blownlow and others. Gen. Walker, in the
course Of his speech, stated that the origin of
the opposition of the United States govern
ment, to his movements in Nicaragua was the
fact that he refused to abandon or exchange
his rights in Central America, for the priyil-
eye of going unmolested to Mexico Cor the
purpose of melting war and acquiring more
Territory from that Republic.
Resolutions were adopted by the meeting
demanding the recall and trial of Commodore
Padding, and denouncing the interference of
the government in General Walkers affairs
in Nicaragua. sa e.3Lotr

A Coon SUGGESTION FROM AN APrRorRIArK
SouRoE.-One Of the members in the House
on yesterday, by way Of burlesque, we pre-.
sumo, introduced resolution offering the
Hall TO the "Great Bear" now on exhibition
in this city. The idea is good one, and
comes from the right quarter. We see no
reason. IL the people will send their cattle
here for exhibition at the Capitol, why Bears
should not be exhibited there as we'll as Jacks.
The honorable member has been on exhibition
every day since the opening Of the session,
and II Is very natural that he should desire
to dignity himself by introducing that more
noble animal, the Gear, into the Hsii.---Nasi-
vile Banner.
