THE CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH BROKEN {

THE CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH BROKEN OFF.
The proposed match for the pugilistic cham
pionship Of the United States between John
Woods, of Boston, and william M. Davis, O. Cali
fornia, has been brought to a close by an vinex-
pected difficulty between the parties as to the
place OF the fight. Woods objected to fighting
in this country, and proposed New Brunswick,
on account of its nearness and accessibility
while Davis favored the vicinity Of St. Louis
Mo-, to which locality his opponent objected, on
account of the cost Of travel and because his
off in the States.
Neither party being willing to yield in the
matter, Woods proposed as dernier resort,
that the fight should come off in a room within
four weeks. To this Davis refused to agree,
saying that such meeting was not in accord
ance With the rules OF the P. r. There being 40
possibility of agreement the money already de-
posted for the match was drawn, and the affair
declared broken off. Davis challenge to fight
any man in America for from $1,000 to $1,000
a side still remains open for acceptance.

More RumOrs of Cabinet Changes.

The New York Herald. of this morning Ihas
the following special dispatches from Washing.
toni
CABINET CHAEGEs-ANTIoIPATED ACTION OF THE
PREsIDENV.
Senator Harlan's resignation of the Secretary
ship OF the Interior Department Is still topic
OF speculation, and generally hoped for. Those
named as his probable successors have decreased
in number, until the choice is said to lie between
Governor Randall, of the Post Office Department,
and Senators Cowan and Doolittle.
''The two latter are considered especially de-
sirous OF aiding the Presidential reconstruction
proposition IN Congress, and it Is not deemed
likely that they would accept a place In the
Cabinet unless especially urged SO to do. The
field is thus clear to Randall, whose appoint
ment Is considered sure whenever the change is
made. The time of Harlan's resignation still re-
mains in doubt. He is known to have expressed
to a Western Congressman of hls own political
ilk, day or two ago, his intention not TO re-
main much longer.
''Men that are In the most eligible places for
understanding the Presidents mind upon the
subject assume that he is only awaiting the ostra-
cism of Tennessee as State, which is evidently
the plan OF the Reconstruction Committee, to
invite such Of the Cabinet ministers as are In
known accordance with that decision to vacate
their places. If this policy is 10 obtain Harlan,
Stanton, and Speed will have soon to bid long
farewell TO their ministerial greatness"

The Turf.
THE SARATOGA MEETING.

The entries for the principal stakes to be run
for at Saratoga in July next were closed on the
lst. An unusually large number OF fine horses
have been entered, and everything points TO the
forthcoming meeting as one of the most extern
sive and interesting ever held in this country.
No less than twenty-s of the best thorough
breds in America are TO compete Tor the Sara
toga cup. The value OF the stakes is $1,000, with
$50 entrance money added; 80 that the whole
amount to be run for this year will be $2SOO
Among the entries are Mr.. John Hunters
fve-year-olds, Arcola and Kentucky, the winner
of The cup last year; Colonel Buford's four-year-
olds, Delaware and Onward; Messrs. Bowen and
Halls four-year-old, Baltimore, who won the St..
Leger at Paterson last year; Mr.. r. W. Came:
ron's Warmlnster, a horse recently imported
from the English turf, and highly esteemed there
Mr.. Alexander's Norwich, Ansel, and Bay Dick,
all tour-year-olds; and other distinguished
horses.
EThere have never been 80 many splendid
thorough breds entered for a race in this coun-
try, and the race will be looked upon with the
greatest interest. For the Sequel Stakes, run for
at the same meeting, there are twenty-five en-
tries. The Saratoga Stakes for two-year-olds for
1867 closed with twenty-siX, and the Trappers
Stakes for three-y year-olis Tor 1868 with dttytwo
entries. Such unprecedentedly numerous entries
of horses for those stakes afford most convincing
evidence of the popularity of racing in the North
and guarantee OF its future prosperity.

1864, when IL was demanded from the bank, with
six per cent. interest on the aggregate amount; (;

1.-The share market is feverish and the business
wholly confined to spPculatine brokers and pro-
tessional operators The market continues to
be manipulated by cliques loaded with stocks,
and who still hopeby an appearance of activity
and by spasmodic advances, to create a market
for property which under the operation of
national laws is steadily relapsing into the slough
OF floating debt from which II was tempo
rarily rescued by business gro wing out of the
Rebellion. Cotton, corn, coal, iron, IN short,
all commodities, tend 10 the prices for
which they sold before the war, and
every movement is toward liquidation. In the
face of this downward commercial tide, which
at any moment may be converted into Hood
before which values will be swept with q vio-
lence unknown even in this country of panics,
an attempt is being made by spectators, who
have grown rich upon the former necessities of
the treasury, to stimulate new advance in
stocks which will enable them to escape the
losses sure to fall upon those who mold property
in form where 1t must be fatally injured by q
restoration Of the labor of the country to the
pursuits OF peace"
The Chicago Tribune says:-
''The Money Market has ruled verv quiet
to-day, and there is no change in its condition
The demand tor money is active, aud the market
generally is close, but there is no particular
pressure felt, and the bankers are accommo-
dating good customers at 10 per cent. per
annum; but low grade paper is generally re-
jected. Street rates are 12Dl4 per cent. per
annum, according to the quality of the paper.
Eastern Exchange is in fair demand, and firm
! at lilo discount to par buying, and par to lilo
premium selling Round lots were sold among
bankers at par. There is but limited demand
for money at present by pork-packeIs, but the
accumulatlons of grain and other produce at
rapidly than they desire. Meanwhile capitalists
at the East are unwilling at present to invest
their funds in the West, either by way of pur-
chase or loan, and the result is the seasons
capital. 1t cannot be expected therefore. tina.
we will have an easy money market till the
