SWITZERLAND. Tb Negotiations wit to France.

From Constantinople, July 29, the New York JJera'd'8 correspondent writes: Never since tue armies of the Crusaders encamped on the shores of that noble estuaty which connects the Sea ot Minuora and the jkuxineba Constantinople been so besieged by princely visitors as during the past three months, commencing with the arrival of the prince of Denmark.

Since the trlumphantentry ot Mahomet II into Constantinople never Iris hO much been expected ot Aux Pudtbchah. Each Prince on his arrival was grunted a reception by the Sultan wnen his Majesty huMened to nturu the visit, accompanied by some of his Ministers. The fame tthiuetie must be observed arid the tame honors extended to all alike, or diplomatic jealousy is sure to be provo'ed. On the occasion of his llnjobty's to tie Austrian Archdukes he presented the magnificent Arab stud he role to the Ambassador. On another occasion he took from his hngfr a diamond ring of immense value and presertel It to the Prince ipoleon, and on all his princely victors he bestowed decorations ret In diamonds.

Then there his been no end of banquets (one eiven by the Sultan to Prince tapoleon) and dinners, reviews, and reception" by the Grand Vizier aud Fuad Pacha, which have so monopolized the time of these important tiinetiouiue ub to force them to neglect the a'Ja rs of State. In fact, everything has been doue by the Sultan and his ministers to rei'der the May of the aiaour princes at the Turkis-h capital as apreeuble as possible, and the Sultan ha on all occasions exhibited rondet-cennion ur di-r the infl ctiou, which had no parallel during tne re'sns ol his predecessors.

Probably they will be shortly liberated under the conditions of the last amnesty. TI1E TtlNq. Tbe Mill Between Collyer and Ed ward It may be of interest to our readers to know the antecedents of these pugilists, who yester day contested so ferociously for the light weight championship of the United Slates: Sam Collyer, whose proper name is Walter Jamison, is ol Scotch parentage, but wus bjrn in France. He came to this country when quite a youth, and settled in Brooklyn, where nis mother aud other rclwtiveB reside.

He learned the ti ado of a machinist, but lu the early part ot tbe wiir he left nis rather aim eu listed in one of tbe Brookhn regiments, serving gallantly until the close ot the war, haviug by his bravery won lor nfmself a captain's commis sion. Shortly atter the close or tne war ne en tered tbe concert taloon business in Baltimore, and for some time coudticted Collyer's Varieties, making his appearance nightly as a clog dancer and gymnast, creating quite a furore by his exDertness in the Indian club exercises. Sam is unmarried: albeit he Is quitea handsome looking fellow wheu fixed up for la lie' company. Strange to say, considering his associations, he neither smokes, drinks spirituous liquois, nor swears, lie is now about twenty-six years of age, is about 5 feet 4 or 6 inches, ana his usual weigui is neiween uu ana tou. lie is of light complexion, dark brown ha'r, and he has quite a firm determined look.

For the pr.st five weeks be has been in training under Johnny Newell a Canton, near Baltimore, taking as much exercise as it is necessary to put him in proper condition. Naturally very regular in his habits, it has not been difficult to get him iu proper trim. He has been taking a walk of sixteen miles before breakfast, and the balance of the day he has exercised with the dumb-bells, sparring with Mr. Neweil, rowing a boat recently presented to him, retiring early and sleeping soundly. His first tight was with MikeCarr, alias English, at Rock Creek, near Baltimore, on tbe 2tiih of March, 18GG, in which he came off the best In fourteen rounds; his eecond with Horatio Bolster, near the White House, ou the Potomac, in May following, whipping htm in a short encounter; his third with Barney Aaron, near Pohick Cuurcti, in September, lSOti, coming oil best in oue ot the severest contesis ever fought in this country forty-seven rounds in two hours and five minutes; his fourth with Johuuy McUlade, at (Joldsboro, in January, 'C7.

whiopiug him; his fifth with Aaron, on the 13th of June, '07, near Aquia Creek, the latter being the victor atter a berbt ot nearly two hours; his sixth with Billy Kelly, in Dclawate, whipping him in 111 rounds. lly Edwards Is an Englishman by b'rth, and is about 24 or 25 years of age. He weighs about 147 pounds naturally, aud is more squately built than bis adversary; his fair complexion, light brown hair, r'gular features, and is qutte as handsome as Collyer. He has been In this country since ho arrived at the age of 21, aud has worked steadily at his trade of iron moulder in flew York. This is his maiden elfort the ring, but he has wifbin the pint tew years had on the buskins with some of the best men in this country, and has shown that there are lew better men than be is as a boxer.

As in tbe case of Collyer, he seems rather out of place iu prize ring for he does not chew or smoke tobacco, drtuk liquor, or swear, and it Is also stated that be Is very particular as to what company he keeps, shunning that which he knows to be bad. He has been under the bunds of Dooney Harris as trainer, first commencing his course at New York, but the training rroori exercising with the dumb-belis, boxing, walking, running, was near Trenton, N. where be hud a benefit a tew weeks ago. The Patiage Down. The N.

Y. World' 8 correspondent thus de-ecribi the scenes ou tbe steamer and at the ring: Leuvipg Baruum'u Hotel, I ljwi jay way, after much meandering through dark and Intri cate streets, to the noiome and filthy wharf at the foot of Light street, wnere i was 10 iane pastoge in compauy with 600 roughs, Micklcs, and ttricvrs ot the most desperate kind, all bourd to Cherry Point, on coon river, an aitiueut of the Potomac, at a point about nlteeu ml es from where the latter river empties into the waters of Chesapeake Bay. The front of the wharf was hidden by a screen ot hacks, wagon, and roughs in red shirts and rough coais, who were met clamorous in their demands to have the boat matt for its destination. Going upon the hart, after passing the ticket laker between a pile of boards and lumber, heaps of straw, and other refuse, I found niysili under a high dark shed, enclosed on tmee tides, and wiih the side towards the water open, at which the steamboat Metamord lay, her gunwale low in tbe water, with the pressure of many human creatures ail thirsting for pomebody's blood. About 2 o'clock, while I am endeavoring to pet a nap on a life-preserver in the forward cabin, which is crowded with men sending aud chaffing each other, a tcuflle takes on the outside between a couple ot juvenile blackguards, each trying to gouge tbe otiier or bite bin nose oil in tbe melre.

The cabin is but poorly I ghted, and I can see through the obscuration ot the oil lamps hill a doz-n men bit.ug, ponging, and btrugglirjg for dear li amid oaths, adjurations, aud shrieks of frightened women. 1 cau etc a huge pUtol butt end raised in the air lor a second, unrt as it comes dowu upou a perspiring forehead of one of the ho are nearly all Irom Baltimore, there is a dcvilbb yell of pain, and in a minu.e or less all I can hear i the sharp ratile of pi-tol shotn, the flush and blaze ot ibe powder. There is a struggle to get out of the narrow doorway on deck, each one trampling on his neighbor in the fright. There are more Bhots in the narrow apartment, more smoke and bbize-eighteen or twenty shots being fired by ditlercnt persons. One stout-locking fellow, who has been working witb praiseworthy zeal enough, is carried out with two shots in his lungs; a third has a couple of balls iu ck, aud several kulfo stabs in his arm; and another has a finger and thumb shot oil; while your correpp mdent, believing that his presence is obnoxious to many, escapes in company with others, through the windows of the cabin on to the aud from thence to tbe hurricane deck, where a large number of people are huddled In terror to get out ot the way of the pistol shots which are flying about in a manner that is not at all assuring.

One man, a fellow with a broad chest aud masive head, a Baltimore "blood-tub," is evidently dying or about to die. This is Clack Mullen, a notorious feliov, but of great pluck, tor he rel'uses to tell who shot him. His eyes are lustieless and the b'ood spurts lroui li toru lungs, while halt a dozen devils iu human shape, his comDauions, are chanting bawdy eougs in his dying ns. Ons fellow cries out, "why the son of a actually has the gall to ask tor a doctor, and wants ice to put on his head." The other wounded mm was cursing and ning the eyes of the men who have no compassion tor them, and who have alieady orgau zed half a dozen more tights in different parts of tbe bca'. Five or six ruffians are roaming around tbe boat during the long and terrible nieht, seeking lor some inof-fenrive person to "blow holes" in him, as they say, and during the night this floating hell pushes on through the Broad Chesapeake, past Antamtssic.

Annanolis, Sandy Poiut, Chopbank, Nauticoke, and Wicomico rivers, swaggering from side to bide with its load of sin and deviltry, and none may close their eyes fprfearof robbery tud violence and bloodshed. In another hour we are at the mouth of the Coou river, an alllueut of the Potomac, and we eet a sieht of two one from Washington, tho other from Pmladclphia, besides several sailing craft lull of people, all waiting to witness the fight. Tbe Fight. It is now nearly 11 o'clock, and Dooney Harris, with that same darkly mysterious smile and red shirt, advances to the middle of the rtug with Johnny Newel', Collyer's trainer. A pun.y is toaed gh in the air for choice of corners, ahd Collyer wins the tos, thus placing the sun lull in the eyes aud face of Edwards.

The colors, a crimson bordered one for Edwards and a purple bordired one for Collyer, are tied to the middle stakes of the ring by Mike Costello and Johnny Roche, who is friendly to Collyer. Now comes the question who shall' be chosen referee. Barney Aaron says: "Vy, take haoy body as is nice and and wants to do the right thing, so elp me God, and bless roe blessed heyes, I is willing to haccept any one as is square. I haint got no ard feeling no more than the huuborn bnbe about this ere scrapp. All we wants is a lair show fur our boy, aud we intends to get it.

Give the ball a kick." Then another advanced into the ring and sajs: "Yir are all suckers and suoozeys aud I am talking. My novl's can lick any ot yer. The money talks, and it always will talk: 30 to 100 on the If etle novi's as never fit a fight." Here a little boy. son ot Collyer, about fourteen years of age, with a fresh, bold face, who is accompanied by another brother, aged twelve ears, cries out In a taunting manner, 'Yer ain't got a cent; If yer have, why don't jer bet it 1 We want all the sugar ye have got on here?" 'Ye lie, sucker, ye kid," pays the New Yorker in a rage that be Is taunted by a child. The referee is chosen at last "Mr.

Jimmy CVey, of parts unknown," as Mr. Harris says. Barney Aaron says to the crowd at tne ringside, any body got a stop-watch as he dor n't want to get back "Yes, Sheney," answered a rough. "I have got a stop watch, but you doesn't get it If I know it." "Now," says Barney Aaron in aloud, shrill voice, "I wants you reporters to listen. Don't call us murderers and thieves and robbers, and go for to state that we doesu't hundertand Hinglisb, vich is right Vite chapel.

We are good boys, aud we are goink to have a square scrap as you ever teed, and be light lor sake, do." It is now four mlnute3 after 11 o'clock, and the sun pouriug down close and sultry. The fipbt commences, aud the last rounds will with what leiocity it was prose-cuten: Hound 37. Collyer knocks Edwards down after heavy fighting. The veils of the Ballimoreaus aie most leartui now.

The New York World of this morning Is re sponsible for the following: Tne business disagreements between Mosr J. T. Lloyd, lessee ol tbe New lork The a re, and D.

II. Harkins, of the Broadway Tuta'r both of whom claim the exclusive right to pio-duce tbe diama ot Foul Fay, as obtained from Mr. Harry 1). Palmer, were brought to a disci acelut issue last night. It appears that Mr.

Lloyd applied to Justice Barnard, of the Supreme Ceurt, for an injuuetiou restraining Hur-kins lrom producing the play, and also an order of arrest for Ilarktns. This was placed in the hands of Sherill O'Brien for seivice, and it is alleged by the Sheriff's officers that Harkinikent out of their way and avoided arrest, and tne only alternative leit for them was to Brrest him at the theatre. At about 0 o'clock, last night, a farty of deputy sheriiis, consisting ot Oeorge lickcy, James Moore, James Watd, Dennis Learv. and Thomas Quinn, proceeded to tho thratie for the purpose of arresting Harkins. It Is allrccd by the attaches of tbe theatre that the deputy sheriffs made their appearance at the stage door of the Broauway rueatre, accompanied by nn usher from the New York Theatre, to wnom nione ot tne party Margins was kuo vn.

They at once seized Stephen Wallace, the aged doorkeet er. and. as is aliened, plucel a pistol to his bead and threatened to blow his brains out it he interfered or gave an alarm. They pushed the old man aside and rushed on the stage. At this time tne curtain was down, it being the interval between tho first aud second acts ol tne piece.

lue uepuiy sneriiis made a rush lor the stairs leading to the dressing rooms, which are situated undr the stage. At the heHd of the stairs they were met oy Stephen Wilson, the proper'y man of the theatre, whodemanara tneir outiuess tne reasju for their Hickey, the Deputy Sheriff, who seemed to be the leader of the party, seized Wilson by the throat, and lorctrg him back over the railing, fired two shots at him, both of which took effect, one in the head aud the other in the right leg, causine iniuties of a highly dangerous nature. James Waid, another ot the iteputy Sherius, arew a revolver ana nrea three shots at Wilson, and unfortunately one of tbe bullets took effect in the body of Leslie Chamberlain, a boy about sixteen years of age, who was com it: up stairs at the time, indicting a wound which, it is feared, is of a fatal nature. Tbe noise of tbe scuflle and the firing of the shots, may be imagined, created au excitement behind the scenes, as well as before the curtain. In the meantime Harkins, who had been warned by ihe appearance of the Sheritl's posse and the filing of the shots, walked off into the auditorium aud into the street, making his escape.

The pistol tiring attracted Officers Fogarty and Henderson, of the Eighth Precinct, to the Theatre, who, ou learning what had occurred, arrested IPckey, Ward, Moore, Lenry, and Quiun, and took tbem to the Prince Street Police S'ation, where they were locked up for the night. Wilson, the property-man, and the lad Chamberlain, were taken to the New York Hospital. Wilson's wounds, though of a serious nature, are not considered necessarily la'al. The bullet from Ward's piotol entered the right arm of the lad and, passing through, penetrated tho right breast, acd is supposed to have lodged iu the lungs. Considerable internal hemorrhage resulted, and the attending s.irgeon gave no hopes of his recovery.

The lad was emDloyed as a gas-lighter in the Theatre. He resided with his parents at No. 131 Seventh avenue. Tho above narrative was obtained by our reporter, through the police from the attaches ol the theatre, who will nuite in asserting that the conduct of the Sherid's posse was entirely uncalled for, as no resistance was offered. The deputy sheriffs did not exhibit any document or state their business when they entered the theatre.

When searched at the police station, a revolver, with two chambers discharged, was found on the person of H'ckey. Ward had one with three of the chambers empty. Quiun had a revolver with all the chambers fully loaded. GENERAL LONGSTREET. Gen.

Grant III Choice for tbe Presidency. The New York Tribune ol this morulng re ates an interview with General Longstrcet, in this manner: Yesterday a chieftain of the late Rebellion, Geneial James Lougstreet, arrived in New York. Since the war he accepted the situation, and has used his influence to counsel and guide his people and to lead them safely back to au enduring peace. Yesterday evening a reporter ot the iribune called upou the General at the New York Hotel. Imagine sealed at a table, a tall, well-bunt man In a suit of black.

The face is a kindly, plcasttut one, the bnard is sandy aud grizzled and the checks are Hushed. The forehead is high and the eyes are erey and soft in expression. The mouth squarely cut denotes decision, and there is that quiet resolute air about him lhat reminded one of General Graut, whom be strongly resembles In looks aud manner. Although suffering from an attack of fever. be bore himself resolutely above pain, and atter dinner conversed ireciy upon attairs tn the Southern States.

As a portion of the conversation bears directly upon the coming campaign, I give it in full. Reporter Do you think we will have better days in tbe Southern States? General Longstrect Assuredly. The cotton crcp has been very large this year, and we will soon have capital of our own to work upon. Rep. Suppose Seymour is elected, do you think we will have another war? Gen.

L. 1 cannot say as to that; but I believe that it he is elected it will open all those old Issues, and we will have trouble; but I don't tnink he win oe eieciea. len. What do you think of Grant? Geu. L.

lie is my man. I believe he Is a fair man. 1 met him at West Point. I think he is ubove meanness. His silence Is grand.

Itep. There Is one thing 1 would like to ask, It is in reeard to toe nearo. Gen. L. (smiling) I will tell you all I know.

Rep. Will he keep his contracts in regard to labor? GtD. L. can relate my own experience. My men have worked well.

They like to have a white man come out in tbe field and tell them what to do. There was always a class of luzy men who would sit lu their houses aud give their orders. These men deserve to have rouble. Rip. And in regard to 1ury trials I meau neeroes uron a jury oencn Gen.

L. In some cases that is bad for in stance, where an action involves an account Negroes generally are ianorant upon intricate matters ot business. But if a district is disposed to do risht with them, tho jury may be divided white and black. They (the negroes) soon learn, and appreciate tne position. Ren.

About neerro supremacy Geu. L. Ah. that can never be; it is silly to think of It. They can never bo stronger than ttey are to-day, ana tue whites ot the i-outu know it, but they are m'sled by the politicians.

Rep. In regura io tne acts oi reconstruction Cm. I advise my friends to accent them. and come Into the Union and try to bring about peace and prosperity. I told the people of Ala-htmia.

if thev would not be guided by tho poli ticians they would come out all right. Rep. And you think it will come out all right? Gen. L. I do; the crops are large.

The cotton crop Is worth $200,100. 000. That is a step towards brineing about the desired result. Chae was my man. I think it nominated ho could have 'b-'in e'ected, and the Southern people would rally about him without kuowing it; I cannot vote for Seymour: but any way, I think good times are not far distant.
