THE HANLAN- COURTNEY RACE
A Promise OF Fair Weather aud Smooth
Water-The Men in Fine Condition.

MONTREAL, Oct. 1.-Another glorious day
adds to the promise for fine weather to- NOR
row for tho international struggle. Hanlan
spends more time on the water than his
powerful rival who. however. Is now getting all
the practice he seems TO want. Both men are
in splendid condition. The markers were
placed yesterday exactly midway Of the com
mittec's grand stand. and the rest OF the course
was buoyed. 1t is claimed by Courtney and his
friends that the course. as marked at present
makes one mans position much more favorable
died before the race comes of.
In addition to the great attraction OF tho day
the committee have arranged for an Indian
and squaw race. which will come of Just before
the rowing race. Courtneys stock IL rising
and his admirers say he will make an example
Of the little champion. but the friends OF the
latter are not dismaycd. Mr.. Brisler Court
ney's principal hacker. has laid 5000 on his
man.
The city s crowded with strangers. and the
excitement IL at fever heat Numerous excur-
sion trains and steamers from ali parts arrived
to-day and brought numbers OF visitors. Han
Ian was out this afternoon for short spin, and
came In confident OF victory His Immediate
attendants and hackers are very sanguine OF his
success. Courtney did not venture on the water
in the afternoon. and has been kept secluded in
his cottage. He is in fine spirits. and perfectly
1T. he says to row for his life. He expects that
the race Will be pretty stiflly contested. and
presses the opinion that lie can win.
The feeling tO-day has veered round In favor
OF Courtney. and many who thought little Of him
at first are now his strongest hackers. Mr.
Ward backed Hanlan for 5000 against SINH
lar amount on Courtney by MIR. Brlster,

PIsTOR HAYDEN's ACQUITrAL.
His Congregation HeJoicing over 10 and
Piedzing him their support.

New HAVEN, Oct. 1.-The Rev. Mr.. Hay
dens church and congregation at Madison
have by q unanimous standing vote adopted
resolutions declaring that they deem the arrest
Of their pastor to have been made on the most
criminally frivolous grounds. and therefore
great outrage upon him and upon society at
large that they rejoice with great Joy and give
devout thanks and praise TO Almighty God that
Brother Hayden stands before the world free
man without stain Of guilt upon him. not
withstanding the wicked designs OF evil mon
and the ungentlemanly. unwarrantable un-
scrupulous and inhuman course pursued by
the Prosecuting Attorney for the Common
wealth that on account Of the love they have
Tor Brother Hayden and for the cnuse he repre-
sents as minister OF the Gospel they will give
him their earnest support morally. that no
shall have their best efforts to support him
financially and in every possible way in his
work and labor as Il faithful minister Of the
Gospel and alaw-abiding citizen.
The resolutions also express sorrow for the
death OF Mary +. Stannar1. and pledge the aid
Of the congregation in all lawful and honorable
efforts 10 bring her murderer TO justice.

THE PARADE YESTERDAY.

First Regiment In Line For III ttaIion Drill.
|. Yesterday the First Regiment OF the Lou
isiana State Militia, commanded by Sol.
Adolphe Meyer, turned out in Annunciation
Square for battalion drill. En- route to the
square the command, owing to the soldierly
bearing OF the men, received much applause
from tie spectators When in the square the
mansllvres were gone through with such pre-
eision that one would be led to suppose that
the regiment was composed of veterans.
One Of the chief features OF the regiment
was the company of Zouaves commanded by
Capt. Geo. Fl. Lord. This company, just
before forming, presented their commander
with beautiful sword and belt as token OF
esteem Inscribed on the sword was "Pre-
scented to Capt. Geo. H. Lord as token Of
esteem from tho Behan Zouaves." The Cap
tain thanked his soldiers In q neat and appro-
pirate address.
Last night after the parade was over, the
field and line officers, headed by q splendid
brass band, called on their chief and his lady,
and were most Hospitality received. The call
was to thank Mrs. Col. Meyer for the present
alton Of beautiful and tasty guidon to the
regiment The commissioned officers, led by
Col Meyer, then repaired to Mr.. Townsend's
residence. and, after being received with
marked respect, the Colonel, in behalf Of his
command, with few eloquent remarks
thanked as fair daughter Of Louisiana as
ever basked in her southern sun, for the regi.
mant,s rolorg
