THE TURSB MILE RACE. ‘The time for the three mile race having approached, the judge sounded the drum for them tomeke their ap- Prarance, which they quickly responded to, and prepara tions were made fora stort Fanny Fera was the favo- rite at one hundred to siaty, and, in some invances, one hundred to Sfty. An immense amount of monsy was staked on the result. Fanny was a decided favorita, particularly among the Virginians present.

The mare then went up, and took sides with hic, and they together until near the Mapsion House, when Garret again drew away from her, and led two lengths around the lower turn, and up the homestretch, his rijer pulling him nearly double tokeen him back. He came past the stand two or three lengt o font of the may time 1:5) Garret then dasbed away from Fanny at a tremendous rate, opening a gap of fifty yards, at least, and on the upper turn the | bog pulled him almost toa standstill, allowing the mare toget tohim, He then broke away from the boy, and opened a gap of half adozen lengths, which he main- tained around the turn and up the homestretch, when Mr. Fowter the trainer of Garret, told tne rider of tue horse to let him go along. Time of second mile, 2:07. ‘The boy obeyed for a moment, and the horse again went away irom the mare, making the distance betwoan them about one hundred yards, when he again commenced poe him, aad on the homestretch he stopped the jorse until the mare was within a length of him, whea he stea ghtened Garret’s head, and let him ruz in, beating the mare two or three lengths. Garret Davis could have distanced the mare handily, but from some reason, un- known to the spectators, he did not do so. Probably sho | was not distauced through courtesy to the Virginians. Time of heat, 6.153; and of the last mile, 2:13. Second Heat —One hundred to ten was offered on the colt without takers, the opinion of the majority being that the mare would be drawn from the contest. She | was, however, started, with the understanding that if ehe did not go better her rider would pull her up after uoning a mile. This was done, it being evident that she Gould not run; and Garret Davis went on alone the nexttwo miles He ran the first mile in 1:56.

LECOMTE AND LEXINGTON. We give place to the following communication from General Wells, the owner of Lecomte, to the New Orlearts Picayune, in relation to the con troversy between the trierds of Lecomte and Lex ington as to their relative merit {From the New Orleans Picayune, July 30.] LECOMTE AND LEXINGTON. The following communication, addressed to us for padlication by Gen, Wells, the owner of the celebrated race horse Lecomte, will be read with avidity by hun- Greds who tale an interest in the controversy which has sprung up relative to the respective merits of this noble suimalond Mr. Ten Broeck’s famous Lexington. Gen Wells propores, as it will be seen, to run Lecomte against any horse in the world—Lexington in perticular—at any distance, at sny time, ard for any amount :— LECOMTE TO THE WORLD, AND LEXINGTON IN PARTICULAR, The readers B1 the Picayune can feel very little in terest in a newspaper controversy between the owners of Lecomte and Lexington; and I shall be brief ia what {have to say in reply to Mr, ten Broeck’s note puslished in the New York Spirit of the Times, of the 8th of July. seing, I must remark to the editor of tha! paper, oguage be has seen proper to appiy to me & note apyended to mg letter, is language he would have cared to atter but for the security he feel: a distance from me.

The charge is so fully sub- styntiated by strong coincident and cmroborating ¢'r- cumstances, that like impressions to mine were wade on the minis of all who read the Spirit of the Zimes; ati T have proof in my posession to show that two of the leading turfmin of Mississippi and Louistana believe as idid. I will not attempt to follow Mr. Ten Broeck through the whole of his ‘brief review of the race in woich Le compte was vistor,’’ a6 much of what he says is merely | the impression of his own mind. Mr. Tea Breeck sayr, in making excuses for the as- tounding de‘eat of Lexingten, ‘the friends of Lexiogton did not think him in order at the start; Mr. Pryor | strongly objected to his starting, declsring bim unfit to rua.’ &s nothing has been said to the cootrary-—as it was not necesrary to make excuser—Lexington was ia conditira to run for the State stake, andeight days thereafter is declared unfitto ran. The race, then, for the State stake must haye unfitted him, anJ, «a conse quence, ibe subsequent race, which was a killing one to him, must have made his condition still worse. Indeed the effect of the inst race was soevident that it has declared by high authority, ‘a power near the throne,"’ that ‘Lexington would have been beaten in & third race, as Be only begun to eat well on ‘he day the match was proposed to be made.’ Now, I would ask, can any one belicve that Mr. Ten Broeck, in the face of al! these disadvantages, wanted the mate! nthe 10th of April’ And does w that he intended to preclude me from ac- vepting his challenge, by securing my rider from Mr. Kenner. and reta nalng Gilpstriek beforehand ? | As the veteran trainer of Lecomte was aoxioun for me to run the match, if ene shoul proposed, I called on Mr. Keaner with this view to dorrov Abe, and he replied that Mr. Ten Broeek had already applicd to him. This was the day after their Isst race. On the 12th of MayT rent a communicatioa to the Spirit of the Temes, sigued “A Turtmen,”” vhich contained ® proposition to ran Lecomte egriost any horee in the Cuited States st heats from one to four miles, for $5,000 ce to be run over the Desember the op- iy accepting; the sum of £510 to be allowed to defray expedsen, provided the purty accepting did not live in an adjoining tate t# Loulsinea: the furfelt to be deposited in New Orlows, and ths proposition to be le't open mntil the first of “ep In the same number of t} the abors communication » sued bis ‘“eorics of extraord.nay They were proclsime) on the of » and no ac- | coptaaee to be rectived sfter the 20th of the same wonth; thorby, to far a8 Lecomte was o weern:d ‘i three weeks und two daya to :eceive, consid If L accepted to run over bis own course 9 Uwas required to bet him $26.1 0010 220 40 cepted to fillow him te ¥ ¥ fatety pha } a ydvia ) | ted States, we reas follows:—Loan of 1842, $59,000; loan | of 1846, $119,100; loan of 1847, $102,000; loan of 1548, i. | Knickerbocker . | Market | Balances for we chi otested against the unfairness of this challenge, in whivh 1 pr and Wr.

The Nicaragua steamer brought about half a million in coin, which went immediately into the banks. In the face of an exportation of about | one and a half million, the banks lost only about a quar- | ter of a million, ‘The copious rain of Saturday night and Sunday morn- ing hasno doubt been of great service in filling our canals and placing them again in fine navigable order. The Delaware and Hudson Canal Company have been obliged to nearly suspend operations, and boats on other | canals have been compelled to reduce their loads ver materially. The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, connected with the Cumberland coal region, has not been obstruct 60 in the least by the dronght, and the coal companies of that secfion have been able to get to tidewater their full complement of coal. The Cumberland Coal Compa ny bave for some time past been delivering coal on con- tract at tidewater faster than purchasers could take itaway, and it has been accumulating on their docks at Baltimore and Alexandria. This company is not in the market as sellers of coal, haying already contracted | for the delivery of full as much as they can get out un- | der the most favorable circumstances, at prices which ensure the payment of dividends regularly hereafter. ‘The improvement noticed in the navigation of the canals of this State and Pennsylvania, will give greater facilities for the transportation of coal into the interior and to the West, and may reduce prices to consumers slong the western Inkes, but it is a question if it 1s not too late to benefit the seaboard much. So much depends upon the state of the weather that it is difficult to tell anything about the course of prices. An early severe wiater would put up prices in face of an ususually large sup- ply; while an open, mild winter would have just the contrary effect on moderate stocks. We annex a com- munication, the arguments of which cover the whole ground, It is well worth careful perasal:— ‘Toe CoxsUMrrion OF Coat IN THE UNITED STATES, There is a great diversity of opinion existing iu the minds of those most familiar With the consumption and production of coal, as to the extent of supply and de- mand, and consequent effect upon prices for the coming | winter. What was intended to be done by the operators in Pottsville, in order to sustain prices, has been partly effected by the act of Providence. Already for the first time in its existence, the Delaware and Hadson Canal | has been nearly dry; for @ period of six weeks the com- | pany have been drawing from their feeders, and their | ats have been stopped. It is also well known that there has been a deficiency of water on otMer canals on which coal furnishes transportation. It is therefore important to the interest of the con- laying the purchase of coal, and the effect upon his | purse, before yielding to the clamore of the press upon | the ‘‘borrid monopolista.”” It isa well known fact that only the rich purchase their coal at the lowest prices; the pocr, unfortunately, are unable to avail themselves of the opportunities frequently afforded. Those who say “don’t buy’? are much more the enemies of the poor than those who say it will be higher, because if rich ard poor, on the approach of a snapping cold, both en- ter the market, God help those whose poverty compels them to buy by the half bushel. In addition to this, the the production and ‘create precisely the evil the press seem anxious toavoid. For instance, if it were gene- rally believed that coal would be $10 per ton, who can doubt that our yards would be more amply supplied than if the miners thought it would only be $6 ’ In order to obtain a more correct idea of this increas- ingly important subject, let us see what agency coal has in carrying on the affairs of the country—for @ just ap- preciation requires a knowledge of ihe modes of con- sumption, as Well os the sources of production. Any one who suppores that the hearths, 3 ard furnaces our city houses are the chief altars on which caloric is generated and offered up to the cupidity of coal diggers, will find, on examination, that bis conceptions of the uses of coal are very limited. It is first to be remembered, that wood as a fuel is | axe.
