Caurraevitie Course, L. 1.—Trorrine.—Faipay, Ava. 3,—An immense concourse of persons assembled at the €entreville, on Friday last, to witness the trotting con- test advertised to come off between Lady Suffolk, Lady Sutton, Pelham, and Lady Moscow; in fact, there were more people, and « larger number of vehicles, of al) de- seriptions, at the course, than wore ever before seen in that vieinity. The day was delightful, the track in exeellent order, and everything that was required to make a day of real sport was provided—with the ex. ception of Lady Moscow. It was reported that she had injured herself in her exercise, and would not compete for the purse. As soon as this was known on the track, Lady Sutton became the favorite against the field, and Jarge sums were staked on her. Lady Sutton and Pelham looked and moved in their peoring very fine, while Lady Suffolk did not appear to possess that life and elasticity which she generally Libits previous to starting for @ race; and we wore astonished athe speed and endurance that carried her po successfully through the race. ‘The contest was fora purse of $300, $50 to second Dest, mile heats, best three in five, in harness; and i may be set down as the very best in point of speed, and the energy with which it was contested, that ever took place, as the following description of the heats ‘will sho’ First Heat.—Lady Suffolk won the inside position, Lady Sutton the seeond place, Pelham the outside. — After a few attempts, the nags got away pretty evenly cher, juffolk had slight advantage.

The drivers immediately alight trom | their vebicles and hasten to the judges’ stand, the one | tocomplain ef the other; and here, before the judges had time to understand a word of their charges, they set to work to batter their already damaged frontis- ieces, The scene now grew uprearious, and beggars ription—the judges’ stand was filled in an in- stant with Seema parties, who amused themselves for a time with sq: ing each others’ throttles, and pulling and tearing each others’ clothes; and no one could tell the why nor the wherefore. At length order was restored, the parties having worn themselves out of breath and strength, and the decided that as the drivers were both to blame, and that as they were | unable to decide who was the first ee. they would make it a dead heat. ‘Time, 2:31. is gave satisfac- | tion to the crowd, and order once more prevailed, | Seventh Heat.—Quarter judges were appointed, and sent to their respective stations, to see that each driver , acted fairly towards the other, it having become so | dark, not ecapeeren | that the moon shone brightly | over the track, that it was impossible to keep watch, | from the judges’ stand, on the actions of Woodruff and | Bryant, Suffolk was now the favorite.

The principal Indian villages are located on the Carlosahatchee river, about three day’s journey from Ocala.

It is sel- | dom we experience such a state of inactivity as Wall street has presented during the past week. There has not been business enough done at the board te support | one respectable house; and if it were not for the shorts purchasing to fil contracts daily maturing, it would de about as well to adjourn until September, There ‘are very tew of the brokers absent from the city, and the only reason we give for the Inactivity, isthe | fear of touching the fancies at present prices, or, in fact, at all, at any price. No one purchases those stocks to keep; whoever buys them does so on speculation. and with the expectation of making s proft; and the prox pect of doing #0, at present, is so poor that very few have temerity enough to risk an operation. The street epecalators are all in town, and money is worth but four and five per cent per snoum, sotwith- standing which, it is utterly imposible to get up a speculative movement, or to start even ons small fancy upwards.

Weller—The Mos- guito Question— The Protest of the Administra- tion, §c. Col. Weller has already drawn from the Trea- sury $33,000 out of tha $50,000 appropriated by Con- gress for the boundary survey ; and this waet sum» does not cover the salaries of the corpssince Mareh last. This was drawn before he left Panama, and the government has no knowledge that he has gone to San Diego at all—on the contrary, there ws strong reason for believing that he has gone to San Francisco. Dratts from him, independent of the $33,000, to the amount of 11,000, have recently been protested by Mr Clayton—ma- king a total of $44,000 expended by Weller at Pa- nama, independent of the sularies of his men for the last four or five mnths. You will see by this statement how very unfair was the charge made by a Washington correspondent of the Herald, some time sinee, that Weller was removed merely from political grounds. “ I wall write you with reference to the Mosquito question ina few days, The Americaa govern- ment has protested in the strongest manner against the attempt of England to close the St. John’s river | ageinst our citizeus who have contracted to builda eanal for the State of Nicaragua.

The towns on the Miseourt, with the exception of Brunswick, are healthy, and very few enses are re- ported on the Upper Mississippi. Business withas is reviving, and merchants and tradesmen who fled from their homes, are returniag with the prow of a busy and prosperous autuma.

The reeent visitations are not without their ul- timate advantages. Much has been learned by these disasters from whieh profit must acerue. By the fire we were taught the danger as well ae inconvenience, of narrow oe fares, and the value of fire-proof buildings. By have be ught the value of a wholesome atmos phere, and the di rot neglecting the condition of our streets and alleye, not to speak of our cellars and the numerous Isgoons of standing water in the vicinity of our city.

During the prevalence of the ceene more than one hundred fatal cases of cholera oceurred on the margin of one of these pole one hundred yards square, called “Shep erd’s Grave Yard.” Much of the northern part of the city is drained by a natural subterranean out. let, high ground being sitmated between that region and the river. Last spring thie outlet became stopped and, as a consequence, many acres were inuadated, the water, for oer, reachi the second stories of the houses.
