Little additional intelligence as to the wreck
Of the Vicksburg, and nothing as to the fate
of the persons in the missing boats, has been
received in this city. The list of cabin pas
sengers and partial list of steerage passengers
published to-day will be scanned with anxious
interest.
The burglars of Brooklyn arc not idle while
the search for the ono Of their set who attacked
Mr.. Shute is going on. The attempt made yes
tertlay morning to rob house within few
blocks of the residence of Mr.. Shute, and the
escape of this burglar also, on discovery, arc
not flattering testimonials to the vigilance OF
Brooklyn police. At this rate every man in
our sister lily must soon be his own policeman.
The pride taken by Saratoga in the College
Regattas is commercially manifested i'll the
energy and libcrality of the Rowing Assoca-
ton, which is in charge of the preparations
for the contest soon to take place on the lake.
An account of these preparations is given on
another page. Muchhas been done for the
comfort of the spectators as well as for the
convenience Of the crews, and it is already ap-
parent that the Regatta of 1875 will be
conducted under remarkably favorable aus
pices for all concerned.
The near approach of the centennial ce'ebra-
ton of the Battle of Bunker Hill calls for a
refreshing of memories on the interesting his
tOrical event to be cOmmemOrated. We pub
lish to-day a spirited story of the battle, with
an accurate map of the battlefield, and a re-
view of the points so much discussed as to the
objects, incidents, and results of the engage
ment, and the part taken by the leading actors
therein on the American side. Few pages OF
our history are more interesting than the one
thus presented in new and striking form.
In talking with representative Of THE
TRIBUNE yesterday, Senator Morton took
hopeful view of the prospects of the Republic
can party, but was disposed to think that the
result of the campaign now opening in Ohio
will be Indicative of the result of the Presi-
dental campaign next year. He is not among
those friends of the Administration in Congress
who see the unwisdom of their support Of the
: Ill. ..,1
to the continuance of peace in the South. AS
to the Third Term question, Mr.. Morton evil
IDENTIFY considers it dead and ready for burial.
"The letter of the President and the action OF
"the recent Republican conventions have
fully settled the question, and there is
"nothing more to be said about it,"
There was a curious scene yesterday at the
Beecher trial. 1t has only been a week OF
two since the counsel were pastcring each
other with the most eXtravagant compliments.
Yesterday they came as near calling each other
liars as Judge Nelson would permit. Mr.
Beach also thought it advisable to administer a
rebukc to the foreman of the jury. He has
now spoken for the three days into which he
originally proposed to compress his remarks
and has as yet hardly touched the real work
which bis client and the public expect of him
the proof of Mr.. Bcecher's guilt. At this rate
he promises to he rs prolix as his opponents.
lie is speaking with great OratOrical feryor,
and drawing unboundod applause from the
TiltOn party in the courtroom
No one doubts that the ministry Of which NJ.
Olivier was at the head in 1870 sadly needs
defending. lie has at last undertaken the
work himself; but, if we may judge by the
particulars which VIC now have of his book, he
has said nothing to mitigate the censure be-
slowed upon him. He takes credit for calm
ing the public mind and restoring the
authority of the Government within few
months after the organization of his ministry.
There remains, however, the indisputable
fact that he remained in Office without any
effort to restrain the headstrong purposes of
few Bonapartist adventures, at time when
a firm course might at least have placed the
country in a much better light on going to
war. NJ. Olivier will, in all probability, be
described in history Us weak instrument ia
the hands of those who held him in great
contempt
At last there seems to be ground for hope
that the long war between the Baltimore and
Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad Companies
