FOREIGN. N. Y. Tribune of Tues day publishes the following specia, des- patch:
 CoNsTANTINoPLE, Sept 9.-The Russian Ambassador in this city, Con. Ignatief, has presented to the Porte another note of his Government, which demands the cession of Crete to Greece, and the full equality of Christians and Mohammedans in all the provinces of Turkey. The de- mand js declared to be the ultinatuua of Russia, and an answer is asked for within ten days. In diplomatic circles war is re- garded as almost inevitable.
 The French cabinet seem to have per- suaded Prussia that no hostile alliances were planned at Salzbourg. It is reported that M. Drouyn De Lluys will take M, Moustiers place in the Foreign office.
 Returns from the recent elections in Prussia and tho other States of the North German Confederation, show that the Lib eral candidates have generally been elect ed, and that that party will have 8 con trolling majority at the coming session of the Parliament,
 The Austrian Council of Ministers has been recognized, and it is reported that Baron Von Beust is maturing 8 plan for the sale of the Church property in Ans trla, anu for the payment of the accumu lated indebtedness of the nation with the proceeds. j. ..s- e- -, 'AN '-''
 The Grand Duke of Baden made speech at the opening of the Diet, Thursday. in which he strongly favored the union of Ba- den with the States of North Germany. This causes some uneasiness in political circles. s.
 The Spanish Government has issued orders to the proper authorities at all the ports in Spain, requiring vessels hailing from the United States to be subjected to a rigid quarantine. sa4 'g1 -. '
 Advices from Candid state that the Turk ish authorities recently interfered with an American vessel, which was aiding the es- cape of Cretan refugees, and compelled her officers to'desist. The Sultan has agaiu declined intervention in Cretan affairs and the project for joint commission.

The Lesson of California.

The California election has resulted in the choice of Democratic Governor, low CT house of the Legislature, and ono at least of the Oongressmen. In 1864 Califor- mia gave Lincoln 62,134votes to 43,841 for Mcclellan. Of course there is apparently q great political change, of which the Dem- ocrats are making the most. talking of ''ti- dal'' waves and such like nonsense in the most scientific manner. The simple truth is that this result, one anticipated by the republican papers, was occasioned by the nomination of a ''ring" politician for Gov crnor by the republicans. It was repeti- ton on larger scale of the mistake com mitted in this Congressional District, last spring. Gorham, the regular republican nominee, was openly repudiated by the most influential papers of his party during the canvass, by the people at tho polls, and his defeat involved as usual the defeat of the rest of our ticket.
 During the war the public necessities were so urgent that Union men felt oblig cd to vote the Union ticket under all cir cumstances. It is we'll that nominating conventions should understand that they will do so no longer; and that unless can didates of unexceptionable private char acter arc nominated, they cannot be cleo ted.

Notwithstanding tho bad weather of thi 8 season our hay crop makes up in quantity what it may lack in quality. So our far mers ought not to complain.
 - On Wednesday of last week the long proposed Sabbath School Picnic of the Congregational and Methodist societies came off.
 Early in the morning the weather looked unfavorable but by 9 o'clock the clouds had begun to break away and the weather prov ed favorable. The childron assembled at the Congregational Church and marched from thence, under the efficient marshal ship of J. H. Perloe, about quarter of mile to tho grove of Major Everitt where had been erected the day before 0 stand for speakers and the choir, seats for the people, and table forty feet in length full of eatables. The exercises commenced with music, after which Prayer was of fered by tho Rev Mir. Bray of the Methodist church, followed by more singing. Actresses were then delivered by Mr. Bray and tho Rev Mir. Goodenough. Next in order came combined attack on the refresh ments bountifully provided by the ladies. Deacon Woodward of Sharon then made 8 few remarks and the choir closed the ex- ercises with moro excellent music. The children then scattered oyer the grove, playing, swinging and otherwise enjoying themselves
 Such gatherings seem to us to serve an excellent purpose. They teach children that religion, and everything connected with it, is not necessarily so solemn and gloomy as, we fear, it too often appears to them,

NEW MILFORD.

On "Wednesday Sept. 4th, tho Blidge- port Base Ball Club visited tbis placo, and played match game with tho Weantinaug Club, resulting in victory for tho former by score of B to IS.
 tciiir nspp piRA Ratt 9laE t played very well indeed, especially after thoy took tho lead. The Weantinaug club lead on tho first and second innings, but one or two unfortunate decisions of the Umpire rather demoralized them, and after that they played somewhat loosely for g few innings, thereby losing the game.
 Wo ways deprecate any oaptious fault finding with Umpires, but at tho samo time hold that no man should act in that position, who is not thoroughly convorsant with al points of the game especially with tho amendments of the last convention Such wos not the case in this instance, and it natura''y caused considerable d;ssatis- faction, The Umpire again and again al- lowed ba''s to be pitched over and around tho striker without calling balls, and al- lowed men to wait at the bat until the pre- vious striker had mado his second base without calling strikes. We merely call attention to this point, because it is ono which inns been regarded of especial impor- tance, and which no Umpire should neg lect, and in this game it told severely against the Woant1naug Club.
 We should Do very unwilling to charge tho Umpire with any partiality, and pre- fer to attribute all mistakes to the fact of his being unused to the duties of the po- a:l Do1 o'x

OK Monday night, the 1st inst, as Mr. George Phelps and his alliance, Miss Ab- bic Case both of simsbury, were riding through some lonely woods on the road be- tween Simsbury and Tariffville, they were suddenly attacked by three mon one of whom seized the horse by the bits and the other two rudely tore Miss Case from the arms of her lover, and cast her upon the ground. The screams of her lover and her self chanced to reach the ears of young man on horseback, then riding not far from the scene of violence, and he turned his horse's head and rushed to the spot, fortunately just in time to save the young lady from the saddest of fates.
