Where is the New-York gentleman who
some time since established a prize for polite
ness in one of the New-Jersey colleges and OF
whose foundation (the Lord forgive usD we
now recollect that we did not speak with
adequate seriousnessf This benevolent mis-
sionary of good manners seems to be wanted
in Harvard; nor would his presence and
premiums in Yale be without blessing. 1t is
notifying to think, after all that was said
last year, that certain students have again done
their worst to bring the College Regatta into
disrepute by their Tom-and-J Jerry behavior, by
inordinate cups, by damage to private property,
and by coarse and vulgar disturbances of the
public peace. We do not suppose that any of
the manly young fellows actually engaged
in the boat races had anything to do
with these juvenile pranks. They had
enough to attend to without getting tipsy.
carrying off signs, breaking down doors,
fracturing furniture, and gradually working
their way into the watch-hOuse. They are
undoubtedly quite ashamed of the pranks of
the young Mohawks who have seriously COM
promised the reputation of their beautiful

commission in the army, he did not feel at
liberty to express a preference for either one
side or the other. He would go so far as to
acknowledge, however, that if there was any
thing he did hate it was Radical. He would
not say whether he approved of the Democratic
principles and policy or not; but he heartily
wished success to the Tammany ticket. Finally,
it was not becoming for military men to talk
about politics, and therefore, though he could
not consent to make a speech, he would cheer
fully write a letter. Some people think Gen.
Rousseau is the handsOmest man in the army.
New-York tribune., 1868-07-29

There seems TO be a great discrepancy of
opinion In the Democratic party in regard to
the eligibility of the Freedman for citizenship.
If you go down South, to Louisiana, for in
stance, you find the Democrats soaping the
Black Man within an inch of his life, and as
if they actually expected to wash him as white
as snow So far as we can discover, he is con
sidered to be an enlightened scholar and per-
feet gentleman, provided, always, that he will
vote for Blair and Seymour but, if he shows
the least inclination to go FOR Grant and Colfax,
he becomes at once perfect lgnoramus and
an incorrigible brute When the Democrats
wanted lio vote in Virginia, they were really
what sailors call bloody politeful," and kindly
pressed him to make speeches upon their own
particular platforms, just as if he had nothing
to do with the transgressiOn of Canaan. Some
remarkably venerable colOred men were caught
and uotted out on all occasions, to tell the audi
eDce how they had always loved their masters,
and how they still felt inspired by the same
tender sentiments. This does very we'll in
Virginia and Louisiana, but here in New York
it is the dodge to sing quite a different tune,
The other night the Metropolitan Democratic
Club roped in Doctor of Divinity, Bowman

The Emir of Bokhara is not dead, but, as
a Cable dispatch informs us has concluded a
treaty with Russia. This, Of course, means
that Russia allows him to retain the semblance
of semi-independence, as long as he is faith
full ally. Russia finds great obstacles to an inn
mediate annexation of the Central Asiatic
countries, and therefore prefers for the
present an extension of its influence to an en-

THE CHINESE MISSION.
RECEPTION OF THE EMBASSY BY
THE PRESIDENT SPEECHES
Mr.. BURLINGAME AND BY
MR.. JOHNSON.

WASHINGTON, June S, 196S.-Before
moor to-day a considerable number of
persons assembled in the ante-rooms of
the White House to witness the entree of
the Chinese Embassy on their official
visit to the President.
Precisely at four o'clock four carriages
drove up under the portico of the White
House, and when their occupants alight-
ed The crowd which had assembled in the
vestibule made o lane through which, in
the order of rank, Minister Burlingame,
his secretaries, the two mandarins and
six students of the Imperial College of
Pekin passed into the Blue Room, Secre-
tary Seward leading the way. Minister
BurIingame and the two secretaries were
dressed in plain black suits, without insig-
MIA. The two chief mandarins were at
tired in gorgeous figured and highly
wrought silk gowns, girdled with silk
and jeweIed cordiug, and wearing sashes
of their rank and Office, of peculiar rich
ness and brilliancy. Upon their heads
they wore peculiarly shaped SHUTDOWN
loose flowing deep red fringing. From
the top of the centre of these hats was
suspended a glass ornament surrounded
with Jewels. Loose flowing panialoons
Of rich colored silks and magnifcently
worked silk and velvet sandals, with dia-
mond clasped buckles, completed the
costume of the two chiefs, while the in-
terpreters, who are all high officers of
the eighth rank, were nearly similarly at
tired, the only difference being various.
marks of rank either about the style of
the dressing or The color of the clothing.
Contrary to the expectation of some the
Chinese did not forget the place, like the
Siamese Ambassadors at the Court of the
TuiIeries, and, throwing themselves on
all tours, scramble into the presence of
the Chief Magistrate. On the contrary,
like a set of sensible and digniied gen
tlemen they walked erect and with stea-
dy eyes directly up to his Excellency and
bowed to him with the most perfect ORR
entail grace, while each one grasped and
warmly shook his hand as though he
were a long lost brother. The reception
took place in the Blue Parlor, the gilded
mouldings and azure damask of which
quite captlyated the taste Of Sun Taien.
The embassy formed in a circle around,
the President and Minister Burlingame,
