Gen. Roberts was not nominated on &C
count of his fitness, but because of his
patriot soldier" character. This is queer
conduct for party that desires to bury
the animositles of the war. If they really
desired to do so, why did they nominate
an inexperienced man, and attempt to
elect him by appeals to memories of his
services in that war they wish to have for
gotten? There could be no surer way OF
reviving the recollcctions of the war than
by running candidates simply on their
record during the rebellion. The nomina-
ton of Roberts is an appeal to the remem-
brance of the war. 1t shows our demo-
cratic friends are ready to bury or revive
war issues just as they deem wisest.-

Correspondence of the New York Tribune.
THE UNIVERSITY RACE.

The seventy eight oars flashed at once, and In
all the line not boat missed its stroke. Harvard
according to its old tradition gained the best start
The Cornell crew, the men of the hour, gained the
next best, and pulled away neck and neck with
Harvard. At first the difference was scarcely per-
ceptible, but soon Cornell was seen to pass VIII
liams the extreme west of the line, and to have
an apparent lead Of everything on her side of the
course. On the Snake Hill side Harvard shot
out, dropping Hamilton on one side and Union on
the other, and it was not long before she had q
lead on Yale. The center boats were pretty well
punched the green caps of Dartmouth and Brown s
and Wesleyan's boats were well to the front. At
the one-half mile the positions of the crews were
as follows Cornell, Harvard, Dartmouth and
Columbia in the front rank, with Yale Wesleyan,
Bowdoin, Brown and Amherst close up. Prince
ton and Williams were slightly behind these.
Farther back, Union and Hamilton already had
matters to themselves. The race at this point was
fine; Harvard ahead, Cornell pulling very Clearly
about 80 strokes to the minute. Columbia at SO
was already showing her metal, and Dartmouth
doing surprisingly well in the center. Harvard's
peculiar stroke was noticeable, and notwithstand-
ing q want of uniformity in the boat, there was a
certain spirit and dash which sugured well
for final triumph. Yale was rowing well together
and with the finish of long trained crew but the
boat did not move as her partisans would have
wished, and the perceptible pause at the end OF
each stroke seemed to settle the boat and stop her
Roadway. The first disaster of the race came to
which may have contributed to set her back q lit
tie. Cornell pulled steady and deliberate stroke,
and made astonishing Roadway with apparent
ease. But Harvard had evidently set her mind on
good lead, and managed to keep it by an effort
for long distance. Columbia, too, began to draw
up, about the mile flag, and for short time was
second in the race, according to the referee,
though the Cornell bow does not think she was
ahead Of him at any time. The race now present
ed a remarkable spectacle. The first division OF
the hotilla included Harvard, Columbia, Cornell
and Dartmouth. Then after an interval Yale and
Wesleyan came on, almost side by side leading
Hamilton and Union, who made up the rear
guard. Soon after the mile the latter were joined
by Princeton, who fell to the rear.
Looking at the race from the side, it had little
regularity, but from front and rear, the boats fol
lowing their different lanes were seen to be dotted
regularly all across their course. The crews
which took the lead retained it, and the crews
which first fell to the rear only dropped farther

In regard to the last scrip sold four years
and more after the sales made by Gov.
Cony, the following letter from Gov.
Chamberlain to State Treasurer Caldwell
will give full explanation. Hon. William
Deering of this city, then in the Execu-
tive Council from Cumberland, was the
principal agent with Gov. Chamberlain in
effecting the last sale. But to the Govern
or'S letter:
BRUNSWICK, June 81, 1870.
HoN. WIN. CALDWELL, State Treasurer.
Ny DEAR SIR-Herewith please find Mr.. G. F.
Lewis letter. We have concluded bargain, the
most advantageous possible, with him for eighty
four cents per acre, amounting to $l3,7OS.SO He
understand the process and send his letter to you.
If necessary will come up and see you.
Truly yours, J.L. CHAMBERLAIN.
1t is hardly necessary to add that the
New England States generally got for their
scrip about the same price obtained by
Maine. 1t was sold perhaps prematurcly
by most of the States in order to realize
funds for locating the colleges instead OF
advancing the necessary amount. The
grant lapsed if the college was not organ
lied within certain time, and Maine,
perhaps unwisely sold her scrip instead
OF advancing the money.
But one strong reason urging many
States as well as Maine to sell at that
time was the tendency Of Bounty Land
Bill in Congress proposing to give quar-
ter section of land to each soldier, or his
heir, that had served in the war. AS the
army roll contained about two million
names, the amount OF land scrip required
would have taken some three hundred
and twenty millions Of acres, and the mar
ket would have been SO flooded as to have
reduced the price to nothing. 1t was the
fear of the passage of this bill, however,
that induced the legislature OF Maine and
of other States to sell their scrip wher
they did. Even four years after, wher
the Bounty Land Bill had been defeated
Gov. Chamberlain declared eighty-ioul
cents an acre 10 be the Every best posi-
BILE price, and there has been no time
since when the State could ever have go
over ninety cents even by waiting ant
losing interest. See price of land war
rants
New York dealt more wisely in giving
the entire body of her scrip to Cornell
University on condition of its maintaining

responded, " You must get married, if have

that she was alarmed when the negro first

The concert season will be inaugurated in
this city on Thursday night next, on which
occasion a grand musical feast will be given
at Assembly Hall by the choir OF the Second
Baptist church, one Of the most cultivated
amateur musical organizations in this city.
Among the many attractions offered for that
evening will be the inimitable performances
of the wonderful Barnabee. Hear what one

"BuL how shall we paint Barnabee-the

Like most good things, he must be seen TO be

humor are seldom so finely blended in the
construction of single mortal, and the man
to whose lot they fall has priceless fund OF
entertainment for his felow-men, always
ready to be drawn upon at sight, and prepared
to honor the draft. He sang nothing
MODERN but breatbed new and undresmed-
of life into the old songs, which we have
often heard, but seldom heard sung. Barna-
bee took the audience by storm, and they re-
turned the compliment vigorously, being un.
willing to let him eff till be bad rtappeareu
