Affatra In Corsa-The Grew OF the Geme-
raj Sherman Beheadsd.
ReI <fIn,afin nrhla

BY Atlantic Ouble.
sHANGHAE, June 6, via London July 23.-It Is
reported in this city to-day that Captain Febi-
ger, OF the United States Navy, ascertained
during his recent cruise in the Shenandoah on
the coast Of Corea that the crew of the American
barque General Sherman had been beheaded by
the natives at the place where they landed.
Americans express the opinion that Captain
Febiger discharged his duty with Jealous care
but that his search was not so efficient as might
have been on account of the draught Of water
of the Shenandoah being much too great to
permit him to explore the Coreau coast aud
rivers, the best existent charts OF which are
almost useless for present purposes.
Should the assertion OF the positive execution
of all or any of the crew of the Sherman prove
true 1t will likely lead to active reprisas on the
part of the authorities in Washington through
the officers in command of the Asiatic squadron,
as the Rev. Mr.. Thomas who had knowledge
of the Corean language, and a few other citizens
of note were on the vessel at the time OF the
disaster as passengers from China proper.
The Coreans assert that they merely repelled
some years since forcible visit of foreign
vessel-f1ag unknown-by force, and that her
crew were killed by an explosion and fire during
the fight,

amendments lat the Democrats had attempted
in vain TO eneraft upon it. Somebody (who
it was has not yet been finally ascertalned)
gained access to the Secretary's office, and,
evidently knowing where the bill! was deposited,
took ii and proceeded to make the aItera-
tions. Acids were used to erase certain words,
the sense of entire sections was changed. No
Jess than eight of such alterations were detected,
and there may be Others. For instance, the
provisions that the Board for the admission OF
electors should only sit in the day time, were
all changed so that the Board could sit in the
evening. This was a point that was vainly
fought for by the Democrats in both houses, and
was rejected by party vote. Another series OF
changes was the alteration Of positive obliga-
tions on the selectmen to simple permissions.
The whole purpose was to render the law inehec-
tive, and it was evidently done by Democrats.

owner of the schooner-was killed outright, and
another, named Cyril Urner, was knocked over

Fred. DOu glass, the Colored Orator, gives
his Opinion OF the Erratic Chief

Lust1co.
Frederick Douglass mourns over the fall of
Mr.. Chase in the Antt-SdUery Standard. He
says:-
The fall Of Mr.. Chase is more scandalous and
shocking than that of any other OF which
American history affords an example. His
descent is from a point hieher-he has fallen
lower-and he reaches depth of iufamy deeper
and hotter than that of any other OF his prede-
cessoIs IN treachery 1t is only few weeks
ago that he was seeking to win to himself the
votes of the colored men of the South on the
ground that he, more than any other prominent
man. best represented their interests and rights;
and now he is for party whose chief claim to
popular regard is based upon its hostility to the
negro and its purpose to place him in a condt-
ton only less wretcbed than the slavery from
which the war for the Union has rescued him.
1t is not many weeks since that good man.
Gerritt Smith, was vigorously pressing the name
OF Mr.. Chase for the Presidency. He was egi,
IDENTIFY surprised, If not grleyed, that was not
equally earnest IN the same work. He could
not understand why should favor the nomina-
tion and election OF General Grant in preference
to Chief Justice Chase. Mr. Smith will have no
difficulty in understanding my preference now.

Student Mischief -m aksrs Arrsstsd-The
College Regatta.
1pectaL Despatch TO The Evening TeIeQraph,

BpectGI Despatch TO The Evening Telegraph.
WORCESTER, Mass, July A.-The usual disor-
derly demonstrations which seem inseparably
connected with the regatta, commenced last
evening. The indiscriminste destruction of
property seems to be the desire of the college
students after the days sport is over and
hitherto they have been permitted to indulge in
their mischieyous inclinations without molesta-
tion, Their social standing exempting them from
arrest. Last evening the excitement began, the
students breaking glass doors, pulling down
curtains, etc.
A large force OF police was soon on the spot,
and twenty-five festive students were summarily
placed in the public caboose, where they
remain to answer for their folly before the Police
Court this morning.
To-day closes the regatta, aud great interest
is manifested over the University race.

Tie Reception of Charles Francis Adams.

The following is the short address made by
Mr. Charles Francis Adams, yesterday, at the
grand reception rendered him in Boston:-
Mr.. President my Friends, and neiehbors;-
You have been used so lOug time back to near
the voice of accomplished speakers who make
TO you addresses upon public occasions some
what resembling this, that | fear you will be
very much disappointed when | say to you that
/ have little TO respond to the remarks, most
friendly and complimentary, which have been
made by the Chairman of the Committee, be-
yond expressing 10 him aud 10 all of you my
deepest and most heartfelt thanks for the kind
feelings you have manifested towards me.
| might indeed, perhaps have, endea-
vored by an elaborate effort, to make an
address on the topics alluded to by your
Chairman, which would have been acceptable
to you; but large experience has taught me that,
in making such an address, | might have been
too much absorbed in thinking what might be
going to say, or how | might be gong to acqult
myself TO be able TO indulge in the real feeling
in which | wish to indulge on this occasion.
That feeling is a desire 10 meet you, not coltec-
lively, as an assemblage gathered for any specific
purpose, but as individuals and personal friends,
who have come to meet me, and with every one
of whom / would be glad to shake hands. And
now, Mr.. Gray, if you will give me the liberty,
] will come forward, and if there is anybody
who wishes personally to express any feelings
he may entertain in regard to any service he
may think have done, shall value his hearty
shake of the hand much more than any formal
expression Of approval,
