The Grand Dukes Buffalo Hunt.

We published yesterday an exceedingly
interesting letter describing tie arrival of
the Grand Duke Alexis and his party at
North Platte, Nebraska on Saturday last,
under the escort Of General Sheridan, and
the reception Of His Imperial Highness by
"Buffalo Bill" the white settlers of the
''ranche," and the red men of the Plains
and the march thence to the appointed hunting
rendezvous on Red Willow Greek, and the
preparations there for the grand hunt and the
accommodation of the party, and for the
friendship and cooperation of the Sioux
Indians.
II will have been observed from our report
er's sparkling report that 'Little Pills"
arrangements for this grand hunt are "per-
fectly splendid; !" and it must be admitted that
his Quaker-like plan of experiment of twenty
wagon loads of provisions for the Indians,
provided they behave themselves like white
men during the hunt, and refrain from 'sliftng
the hair" Of our Russian guests, is good
idea. This treaty having been concluded,
through the agency Of "Puffalo Bill" the
party had set out for the hunt. They we're
already among the "buffaloes," and the
experienced Buffalo Bll' Lad promised the
Grand Duke that 'ff the weather holds good
we shall have one Of the finest hunts that ever
was on this continent" The old chief Spotted
Tail was on hand, and number of minor
chiefs, such as Two Strike, Cut Leg, White
Bear and Little Eagle. The festivities of the
hunt will embrace grand Indian war dance,
in which two or three thousand of our red
brethren will join. Returning from the hunt
the Grand Duke will be given State recep-
ton at st. Louis, and thence he will go down
to New Orleans on special steamer Who
will undertake to say. after all thia fun

stance, proved themselves equal to keel
boats. But it is idle to recapitu-
late what Is 80 well known to those
acquainted With the respective qualities of the
two classes Of vessels. Nor would the sub
ject have elected any comment were 1t not for
the new era soon to be established in the con-
struction Of English yachts. The wonder is
irving at conclusion which facts, not faucies,
long since pointed out.
At the present time the question of centre
boards is receiving great deal of attention on
the Other side of the water. Elsewhere is
printed some correspondence which in some
particulars manifests desire to treat the sub
ject with that seriousness and fair play it long
since should have demanded. The discussion
is principally confined to the proper measure
ment Of centreboards, and although some Of
the correspondents do not clearly see their
way in the matter, 1t is evident that
the vexed question will ere long be harmo-
ni0usly disposed Of Now that the main
feature-nanaely, the advantages Of centre
board vessels-has called forth favorable
opinion almost unanimous, the minor topics
Incident to the important debate will hardly
cause much diversity of sentiment when a
fair status Of measurement shall have been
determined upon. It appears that of all the
yacht clubs in the United Kingdom only
three have permanent sailing regulations
prohibiting s'centreboard or sliding-keel
vessels" from sailing in their matches
viz. the Royal Yacht Squadron, Royal
Thames and Royal London-owing to the
nature of their courses, in which a racing
vessel which could at pleasure reduce her
draught of water might gain an advantage
over her opponent. Exactly; for here again
loom up the manifold qualities of the centre
board. Bat Rome was not built in day,
and it is enough to observe that an impression
is forcing itself upon English yachtsmen that
.centreboards are not the mere gaudy tracing
machites" that ignorance and not little envy
caused to be lnisnamed. Notwithstanding
the reluctance with which the superior quail
ties of centrehoards are regarded in England,
1t is somewhat Of a triumph to learn that their
admirers are largely in the majority. Atten-
ton is called to the correspondence relative
to the measurement of the so-called ''ma-
chimes" across the water. 1t will be seen that
the subject is engrossing considerable atten-
ton in yachting circles abroad.

traveller who left England in April of 1855 for the
purpose OF ascertaning the source OF the Nile.

the 5th Of February started on his perilOus expedi

The Rev. George H. Hepworth yesterday
enterprise. Rarely, if, indeed, ever before,
has Stci1way Hall been so crowded as it was
to hear him. His discourse, which will be
found in another part of this paper, lacked
everything Of the sensational and breathed
only Christian charity toward those who differ
with him, yet during the utterance of certain
parts the audience applauded with hands and
feet. This apparent irreverence was very
meekly reproyed by Mr.. Hepworth saying he
wanted nos their feet, but their hearts. He
announced his purpose of forming new So
ciety, TO be known as '"The Church of the
did not desire to take any one away from any
other organized church. But this declaration
will not keep the people away. They will
Cock to heor him in greater numbers than
ever, because now he lifts up that
name unto which it is promised that
NIL men shall be drawn-even Jesus.
While Mr.. Hepworth was holding up Jesus to
his large congregation Mr.. Clark, of Harlem
was holding up Hepworth to his, and trying
to underv .sue the reasons which Mr.. Hepworth
has given for his new departure-the want of
corporate unity in the Unitarian denomina-
tion, its negative doctrines, its denial Of the
divinity of Christ and the inspiration cf the
Scriptures. Mr.. Clark intimates that Unita-
rtans do moi deny the last two propositions,
and asserts that the first two have advantages
which outweigh their disadvantages. In very
bad taste. il seems to us. for Christian minis
Ter, Mr.. Clark, INDUCED in personalities toward
his late brother in the faith. In doing this he
has lowered himself in the public esteem
without at all lessening the popularity of Mr..
HepwOrth In the community.
AS counterblast to Mr.. Hcpworth's Trini-
tartan trumpet, DR.. Bellows yesterday told his
audience what Unitarians think Of Christ.
He don't believe Him to be Every God of very
God" This doctrine was not taught by
Christ, nor could it be found in the Gospels.
The origin of the doctrine of the Trinity was
stated at length by the Doctor, who traced it
through iis various stages until it came to be
incorporated in Western Christianity.
. The other sermons of the day contain
oothing very startling. Dr.. Newman, OF
Washington protested his faith in spirits, but
not in modern spiritualsm. The Catholics
dedicated new church yesterday at Fort
Washington. at which Archbishop McCloskey
and Bishop McQuade, of Rochester, offlciated,
the latter preaching an eloquent sermon on the
means and the object of the diffusion of Chris
tianity in the world. From the variety OF
pulpit utterances which we spread before our
readers to-day each can choose that which
best suits the individual taste and thank the
giver.
