THE HAMILL-MYERs BOAT RACE ON THE DELLA
wARE.-Some time since it was stated in The
EVENING TELEGRAPH that a skif race between
Mr.. Hamlll, the champion oarsman of Pennsyl-
vania, and Mr.. Myers, the present champion of
the Delaware river, was to take place near the
city some time in the month of September. The
circumstances out of which grew the challenge
from MIR. Myers to Mr.. Hamill are well known.
Mr.. Myers, after his conquest of Mr.. William
Glenn, in his late race on the Delaware river,
sent a challenge to Mr.. Hamil to rOw him q five
mile race. The latter was to have the choice of
time and place. The boat chosen is a fifteen feet
skif. The prize is $1,000.
This style of boat is something new for Mr..
Hamll, but after visiting this city, and eXamln-
ing the boats and the river Delaware, he mas
accepted the challenge, and decided that the
race shall come off on the 18th of September,
1867; the starting point to be from Brdesburg;
to proceed two and half miles down the river
and back. Is is thought by the sporting COM
munity that as Mr.. Myers has had such long
experience in this style Of boat that Mr.. Hamill
will meet more than he will be prepared for.
Mr.. Myers is now under training, and is stop
ping at the house of Mr.. George w. 6imons, in
Richmond street, above Palmer. 1t is under
stood that Mr.. Thomas Dickson, at Bridesburg,
has kindly offered the hospitaltieS of his house
to Mr.. Hamlll while remaining in this city.
Previous to this trial of skill and strength with
Mr.. Myers Mr.. Hamill has race pending be-
tween himself and Mr.. Bro wn, to take place on
the Hudson river, on the 9Th of September next.
After the conclusion of that race. he will visit
Philadelphia and prepare himself lor the one
with Mr.. Myers.

on Saturday afternoon, while the ship Lizzie
Moses was lying in the Delaware, opposite
Gloucester, getting ready to make sail, the
crew mutinied. The men had recently entered
into an agreement to accompany the vessel to
her destination, which was Hamburg, but when
just about to start of, they had imbibed too
freely of whisky, and were very unruly.
They complained of the grub" not being good,
and, at the command of one OF the men, the
crew assembled on the quarterback, armed
with pickaXes, spikes, knives, etc. The
first mate, Mr.. Fields, was badly beaten,
took sides with the mate, mad his head
split open with capstan bar. The melee was
seen from the shore, and word was despatched
to the city. squad of policemen, under the
command of Lieutenant Edgar, proceeded down
the river and brought up to the city fourteen of
the mutineers, secured in irons. They we're all
locked up in Moyamensing Prison. There are

Irish Generals at a Discount.

From the La Crosse Republican.
The President has not only ordered the
removal of Gen. Sheridan from the Louisi
ana and Texas District. but he has also re-
moved Gen. Siclll9s from the Carolinas in
a peremptory mandate which virtually re
duces him to the rank of a Colonel. If Gen.
Meagher and Gen Kearuey we're alive and
within his reach, the President would dis.
play his vengeance upon them in Ike man
ner. In the South, the Irish have always
been kept down as nearly as possible to the
condition of black men. In Texas the Ger
mans have long been regarded by the
Southern aristocracy as dangerous ele-
ment and during the war they were treat
ed roughly by the rebels, The same wick
ed spirit was manifested toward the patrl-
otto Germans in Missouri. The Irish, how
ever have always voted the straight South
ern Democratic ticket; and now they are
rewarded by seeing the Irish Generals OIL
cially slaughtered to appcase Southern keb-
els. If Johnson and his friends keep on,
they will make "Phil' the next President.
