The rival celebrations which are to take
place in these emulous and patriotic towns on
the 10Th inst. have raised an interesting his
torical question upon which each of tho con-
testing parties processes to be very sure that
it is in the right The discussion is likely to
90 on for some time and with increasing inter-
est. We give fair hearing to both sides in
the HERALD this morning. Mr.. Frederic
Hudson, the author of the valuable and most
interesting article in Harpr's Monthly for
May, telegraphs us q communication from
Concord in which he strongly asserts
the claim of the town where he re-
sides and in whose local pride he par
ticipates. Another gentleman of the same
name, Mr.. Charles Hudson, many years ago
distinguished wing member of Congress and
the author of local histories of that part OF
the country, in good repute, asserts the claim
of Lexington as is set forth in an interview
with our correspondent on tho spot yester-
day. Mr.. Frederic Hudson fortifes his argu-
ment with documents; Mr.. Charles Hudson
fortifies his by historical proofs; and In the
present state Of the argument we will not I'M
0ertake 10 ueCtue btbW6tu tHeH. we also
print letter from Mr.. George William Curtis
and the report Of an interview with him on
the same subject, in which he praises Mr.
Frederic Hudsons article as the best
history Of the transactions of April
10, 1775, which has yet been written,
but thinks he erred in not mentioning that
the fire Of the British at Lexington was re-
turned by the Americans, though without any
order from their commander. We also publish
extracts from Mr.. Bancrofs "History''
and Mr.. Irving's life of Washington,
which clearly support the claim Of Lexington.
The point is just now one Of great popular
interest and we invite attention to the first
instalment Of the controversy in other coll
umns, advising readers to hold their judgment
in suspense until other distinguished authori-

Criminal Ga mes.

We are not disposed to limit the amusements
of our people, for we have often felt that we
are too sombre. Whatever enlivens our daily
work is a blessing. When it comes TO these
Harlem races, that we have from day to day
on our East River, we feel that there should
be a protest and a limit There are two boats
that run from Harlem and Morrisania to
Fulton street. They start at the same time
ard claim to be "the fastest in the world. =
They race at full speed. Sometimes, when
one seems about to pass the other, ingenious
contrvances are adopted to prevent this, such
as getting in one another's way, rigging out
pIanks ami spars. Sometimes, on high occa-
sions, there are collisions but these have
thus far been managed with so much ability
that no one has been injured. We are not
without our fear that there will be an exciting
collision in a few days, and we have made all
the arrangements in Harlem for full report.
When two steamboat captains arc bent upon a
collision they are surs to win their point in
time.
But while we should hesitate to lose sensa-
ton in the way Of enterprise, there is one
consideration that should not be overlooked
the lives Of the passengers. This racing BUSH
ness may and probably will lead to frightful
disaster--the loss of many lives and wide
spread misery Why should this be invited

accordingly ordered his men ito dispense and
not to fire." However they may have obeyed
that order, the troops fred and killed eight
men, and then there was a scene Of tumult
and confusion But the troops, say the
thirty-four citizens of Lexington who deposed
to the facts, continued firing until we had
all made our escape" How many shots the
minute men fired on that occasion cannot be
known. 1t cannot be supposed that they did
not fire at all, but they seem not to have hurt
the enemy, and it is only claimed that they
wounded one man. If they fred some fugi-
tive but ineffective shots we should scarcely
care to call any one of those the ''shot heard
round the world" We should nationally pre-
fer shot that made less noise and did more
execution.
As the troops halted some time at Lexing-
ton they probably breakfasted there and
rested after their rapid night march; then
they pushed on to Concord. At Concord the
minute men and militia, under intelligent
command, were moved in bodies as occasion
required, and were posted at critical points
with definite regard to the service required of
them. AS only the Concord men were pres
ent when the troops came up, and as they
were insufficient to make effective resistance,
they were withdrawn and posted at the
bridges that cross the river above and below
the town, and the town was thcreupon occu-
pied by the troops, who proceeded to destroy
what stores they could find. But, reinforced
by the constant arrival of men from the
neighboring towns, the patriots formed line
of battle near the North Bridge, and, showing
o disposition to assume the offensive, drew
upon themselves volley from the British
infantry that killed two men. They did not
disperse. They stood their ground and re-
turned the fire, and several soldiers fell at the
fire SO given, three being officers. These
troops then withdrew upon their supports in
the town, and the sudden change in the
aspect of affairs thus given by this single,
steady fire of line OF men who were now
advancing upon his retreating outpost deter
mined the British commander to discontinue
the prosecution of the expedition and with
draw his troops, and SO the retreat began.
AS the retreat and pursuit continued all the
way to Boston it was from that point con-
tinuous battle, and the weight of the evidence
seems to favor the view that the real battle
began in Concord, and that the Concord men
who organized it are entitled to the main
credit, though, undoubtedly, men from many
other towns were in the line of battle that gave
that first fire
