f)e ails puaatmt. SUNDAY MORKIKG, JUI.Y 1867 LATEST TELEGRAPH, WASHINGTON. Trouble Brewing the Re publican Camp. Dismissal of an Internal Reve nue Officer. Complaint" Against the Hew Secretary of.

Treasury. Don Cameron Grand Exodus to Philadelphia Independence Day in the South, Speciai. to the Picayttnb.1 Washington, July 2, 120 A. M. Ther9 is trouble brewing in the Kepublican camp already.

The dismissal of a subordinate in the Internal Revenue office, a person of no earthly consequence, ex cepting that he was chief of detectives and backed by Senator Morton ex Sec retary Bmtow and Internal Kerenue Commissioner Pratt, has stirred up a tempest that cannot be easily allayed. Spencer, of Alabama, and Sargeant, the Pacific Coast jobber, were the parties mainly instrumental in haying this official kicked out of office, and Morton, backing Pratt, who has been under the thumb of the detective for a longtime, is as mad as a hornet at the President for making the dismissal and avow that thev intend to make war. Grant in his last days is despising the wishes of one faction of the party, and this removal is one of the illustrations of it. Pratt say a if Grant winks at him he will resign. The consequence is that there is bound to boa split in the party, and if Grant engages in a deter mined effort te elect Hayes the Morton Pratt faction will not, get.

themselves into a sweat to advance his success. Several removals from the Treasury are to be made in a few days, as the cor rnptionists of the Radical party, as represented in Congress, intend to demand it. Grant is now determined to have his own way, and for the next few months intends to run the Government on a personal basis. There is great complaint because Mor rill has not qualified as Secretary of the And the declaration is freely made in Radical quarters that he is play ing, the'part of the dog in the manger. If be dofea not do one thing or the other on itortdy, either accept or decline, the President will be requested by pronu Radical "Congressmen to make another appoint tent.

lon Cameron is disgusted having been, made to accept the position of Act ing Secretary of the Treasury when there was.no law for it, and it is a sub ject of great comment that the entire Cabinet was not aware, when Grant requested Cameron to accept the position, that therewas no legal authority for him todoeo. There is a grand exodus of military from this ity to night for Philadelphia, to participate in the Centennial Fourth of July celebration. Reports from all parts of 3he South show that the spirit of patriotism is awake there, and that Independence Day will be observed there this year as it never was before.

Every means of conveyance in the vicinity ol Belmont Park, and many city carriages, as well as the trains on the Pennsylvania Railroad, were in requisition yesterday afternoon to carry spectators to the park, where Goldsmith Maid was to make, if not beat her own time, and four double teams to relieve her, by trotting for a purse of $400. Betting was strong against the Maid," for therwind was brisk and the air rather heavy, and neither circumstance was in her favor. In her twentieth year, with no sign of age, a magnificent creature, rich with the gracious endowments of a beauty and strength creating Deity, so rare in the perfection ot her animal nature ae to nave about her something strongly akin to humanity, Goldsmith Maid, like Joan oi Arc, took tne trace as sue were a princess, while her driver, her judges and five hundred men awaited her sovereign pleasure ere the word "Go!" should be pronounced. A little good natured harm less coquetry uacK ana iortn Detore the judge's stand, and the gracious lady intimated to her driver who seemed to be in her conhdence that she was read v. Only at her sovereign pleasure was the signal given, and away 6be went like the wind, with Catbird after her.

It was a joy and wonder to watch her flying feet. The voice of the pool seller died away, the vacant laugh and idle iest were stilled. Even the most thought less were1 Kept reverently intent noon tbe display of that heaven imoarted power. The first heat was an exciting one. for Goldsmith Maid "'cannot trot, as Miss Kellogg cannot sing, without evoking plaudits.

Nevertheless, it was generally understood to be merely sport to test her and get her into action, and there was a tacit admnwtion that however well she might do she would nor. ao ner oesx. The distance, however, was done an perbly in 34 seconds the first mark wa passed, the next in 1 minute 8 seconds, the third in 534 seconds more, and the nome siretcn compietea ner record tune, 2:17. i The next heat was the great one of the day. The Maid, who had been shawled and led oft as carefully as a belle after her hrst party, came upon the track again, had her wrap taken off.

and was once more ready for action. Round and round rode the JUobles, father and son. before the judges stand, awaiting the pleasure ox her highness. As she approached the stand for the last time befoie the start it was seen that she was getting down to her work. At every step she came on faster and faster, and presently she gave her head a toss ana sdook it uooie nodded his own, at the same time glancing up at the judges' stand the word was given and hey were off.

Tw ice ere she reached the third quarter she showed an inclination to break, bnt this was so obviously caused by poor Catbird's rattling along behind her, that, whether he was not a hindrance to her rather than a help be came a doubtful question. Again and again she shook her pretty head as though she were secretly exult ing over her power to do easily what waa expected of her. And she did it, her record being 334, l. OGMj, l.0 and amid long and continuous clapping from all the stands 2:14. This announcement excited tbe spectators to enthusiasm, and the Maid herself, as she 6tood cooL collected and dignified, being waited on by her valets, surveyed the applauding spectators like an actress called before the curtain to receive a farewell testimonial.

She had. indeed, another heat before her, but the climax was past. Although the time as announced was 2:14, there were many who declared that the course bad been traversed in less time by a quarter of aeecond, but the discrepancy was doubtless caused by the excitement of the start and of the home stretch. The third and last heat of the Maid was trotted in 2:174, and scarcely had she reached "home" when in the track stood a group of gentlemen congratula ting jur. rsuaa ouie ana Mr.

n. smith. tne ion un ate owner ox the Aiaid. Racing at Philadelphia. The attendance at Point Breeze r'arK, Philadelphia, last Monday, the second day of the bpnng Meeting, was quite large.
