FAC HT RACE ABANDONED.

Baldwin, of the Sappho, challenged the Aline
to race across the channel, from Cowes to
Cherbourg, France, and return, for purse OF

PRIVATE EXECUTION IN IoNDoN-THE oABMEN's
STRIKE.
LONDON, September S.-The boy Mackary,
nineteen years old, was hanged to-day at New
gate within the walls of the prison for the MUIR
der of his mistress. The only persons present
were the officers of the law and few members
of the press. This is the first private execution
in London under the new law concerning capi-
tai punishment.
The strike of the cabmen continues, and
causes great inconvenience to the public. The
press strongly denounce the action Of the dri-
vers, whose proceedings, however, have thus
far been orderly.
FRENCH RENTEs DEPRESSED.
PARIS, September 8.-A temporary depres-
sion Of rentes was caused to-day by rumored
war-like speech 10 the troops at Chalons, but
the report WAS soon denied and pronounced
without foundation.
RoEBUoK's SPEECH AT sHEFF1ELD.
LONDON, September 8.-The Times to-day
publishes letter from Mr.. Roebuek, men,
Der Of Parliament, in which that gentleman
justifes and reaffrms the language used by
him in regard to the United States at the Shelf
field cutters dinner. The Times replies
to MIR. Roebuck, and in the course Of
its article administers the following rebuke:
SIN public reception given to the repre-
sentative OF the United States, when it was the
object of all present to cultivate feeling of
goodwill, it is an injury to both countries for
a man in Mr.. Roebuck's position to use the
language OF vehement disparagement uttered
by that gentleman. We only hope MIR. john
son will not fail to notice that the insult has
been repudiated by English public opinion
with entire unanimity. he may form an idea,
however, OF the honor in which We hold his
country by the prompt recoil from MIR. Roe
bucks words he everywhere Witnesses"
THE KING OF PRUSSIA.
BERLIN, September s.-King William of
Prussia, with large staff Of officers, has left
this city on tour ofmilitary inspection through
the North German States. He arrived to-day
at Dresden, where he was received by the
King Of Saxony, and conducted to the royal
palace.

WASHINGTON, December lS.- The
members of the Judiciary committee
who have charge of the investigation
into the political affairs Of Maryland,
have, 1T the request of the Maryland
delegates, decided not to enter on the
examination OF witnesses until after
the holidays.
Edwin N. Stanton returned to his
practice III the Supreme Court to-day
remarking to his friends that he had
withdrawn from politics.
The Senate committee on Judiciary
formally considered the Georgia ques
ton, but came to no conclusion, owing
to tho absence of one member. 1t was
decided that the bill prepared by Sena-
tor Edmunds should be presented as IT
was to day, and referred To that cOAl'
mittce TO be taken up after recess.
This is regarded as "a forcshadowinG
of the Congressional action on the sub
iect. There may be some additions
made tc the bill, such as that proposed
By Mr.. Stewart, for the punishment OF
persons holding office contrary TO the
provisions of the litA Amendment
