We hope the Philadelphians will not feel
angry with New York on account OF the de-
clson Just reached by the Centennial Yachting
Committee. This committee has decided, after
consultation, that as there is no suitable yacht

plans must be changed; and yesterday It WAS
announced that the races would come OF In
New York harbor.

The Herald reports that when the Rev
Gen. GARFIELD called on the sun-stricken ex-
Speaker on Sunday, he made this silly remark {;
"Gentlemen, you can call It what you please,
but it's case OF assassination" THIS looks like
an attempt to use a sad individual calamity to a
Leading Republican, as a reproach against his
critics. Nj. BLAINE and his friends have had
no good reason to complain Of the way in
which he has been treated.

which does not seem to find favor with the In-

Of baggage, and every Indian entitled to draw
rations was provided with numbered metal
check, which he was required to present when
ever he applied for food, which was issued regu-
larry at brief Intervals. by this means overis-
sues were prevented, and the neglect Of any
