w FEW YORK AND ERIE RAILROAD, Kkection of Directors for the Ensuing Year—Defeat of the Now Movement. The vicinity of No. 45 Wall street, the office of the New York and Erie Railroad Company, was yesterday the speone of considerable excitement, owing to the usual annual ekection of a Board of Directors, and the fact that a re- formatory movement was OD foot to resuscitate the droop- fg affairs of the company, ‘The originaters of this move- ment held a meeting the evening before in the Cooper In- stitute, at which a ticket was nominated embracing their principles, and this ticket was presented to tho share- holders yesterday morning for their support. ‘There were three or four tickets in the fleld, lowing is the “split”? ticket»— FOR DIRECTORS —1859-00.

The tirst mortgage to defer said payment for two years, the second for three years, and the third for Sour years, and to receive fer the coupons maturing within these times unsecured bonds maturing as above in two, thr and four years. No dividends to be paid on stock of any kind until these deferred iuterest bonds are paid. The fourth and fifth mort- gage bonds to be converted into a preferred seven per cent stock at their face and juterest due, ‘The unsecured bonds to be converted into th preferred ‘stock as the fourth and fifth mort es, but at par without imterest. This is a valuation of about 20 per cent less than the fourth and fifth mortgage bond: Bills payable, for which collateral secnrity is given, and ‘the amount due the employes, &e., to be paid in full out ef the earnings of the company The results of the above would be about as follows:— Amount of first mortgage. . $3,000,000 Amount of second morty: Amount of third mortgage...

M., and the voting then began, principally by the reformers, although pow and then a liow,’’ or old line ticket ‘would appear and disappear into the ballot box. The re- formers were confident of success, and felt yery hopeful as to the good result of the new movement. “Old Erie has geen its darkest day,”’ said one. * Yes,”’ said another, under good management our stock will be worth some. thing to us yet.” Thus they congratulated each other, the utmost harmony existing between the two “splits”? on the reform nominations, which differ, however, in one or two names only. The latest one—that adopted at Cooper Institute—met with the almost unanimous support of the reformers. But the first damper cast upon their spirits was when W. J. O'Brien, Esq., deposited nearly 4,000 votes for the old ticket. After this the “yellows” poured in in asteady ‘and continuous stream until the close of the election, and as the prospect of defeat became more and more certain, the reformers began to console themselves with the thought that even if they were not successful, the excite- ment attendant upon the movement would inspire the Board with new life and energy. Their hopes were finally crushed, when, at the close of the election, it was an nounced that the old ticket had received nearly 23,000 votes. exclusive of those that were “scratched.” The principles set forth by the movement are substan- ially as follows:— The road, through unfortunate circumstances, declined about three years ago, and had been declining ever since. This was attributed by some to the want of energy on the yart of the directors, which want of energy again was at- tributed to a lack of interest on their part. They who aye but a small number of shares, it is argued, have but little to venture, and consequently the interest they take in the affairs of the company is equally Little. Those who would rr the condition of things think, therefore, that only he Stockholders should be entrusted with the direction of matters, since their interest and energy ‘would be proportionate to the amount they have invested. is ttainly looked to be a reasonable and wise means el uscitating the stock, but th delayed it for another year at least Movement men think, the exciteme: effect upon the Board. The following is the successful ticket by a majority of ten to 15,000 shares:— ¥OR DIRECTORS FOR 1859-60. Samuel Marsh, William E Daniel Drew, Dudley &.

Democraric NomINATION FOR JUDGE OF THE SxconD JU wicist, District.—The Second Judicial District Democratic Convention met in the Supreme Court room of the Brook- lyn City Hall, at one o’clock yesterday afternoon, for the purpose of nominating a candidate for Judge, in ‘place of Hon. Selah. B. Strong, whose term is about expiring. The district consists of the counties of Kings, Queens, Suflolk, Richmond, Westchester , Putnam, Orange, Duchces ‘and Rockland. The Convention was organized by the selection of Thos. C. Campbell, of Duchess county, as Chairman; George G. Herman, of Kings county, and Daniel C. Birdsall, of Grange county , as Secretarie: ‘The list of delegates was called, and a recess was taken to decide upon contested seats. On reassombling the candidates were named in open Convention, and an informal ballot was taken, with the followin, Gen ag . Jaspar ‘W. Gilbert. of Kings county... Selah B. Strong, of Suffolk Wm. W. Scrugham, of Westcheste John G. Lamberson, of Queens. John Greenwood, of Kings... ‘The first formal ballot was tl nd, together with speeches by the delegates in favor of the nomination ‘of their respective candidates, and successive ballotings, the whole afternoon and a portion of the evening was consumed without result. The contest was between the country and the city of Brooklyn, the latter claiming their right to the nominee in consequence of the great amount of legal ‘business transacted here; while the delegates from Westchester urged their right to the nominee from the fact that they never had.a democratic candidate from that county, and were, therefore, clearly entitled to one now. The Westchester men eventually succeeded on the twenty-third ballot, which resulted in’ the nomination of General Scrugham by the following vots:— w. 2 tobe omen mously nominated, and after appointing a committee to wait upon him, the Convention adjourned, Deati oF MAJOR Srevens.—This gentleman breathed his last yesterday, after having “trotted along the road” of a somewhat checkered but unblemished life for a Ferioa beyond the allotted “three score years and ten.” death of Samuel Stevens wili be lamented by thou- sande who have known him for years past in the social, convivial and business circles of New York and Brooklyn, pk ho regarded him in al the various phases of Bis Fas being the very soul of honor and the chivalrous champion of integrity and truth. ‘Tae Oxwerery of tHe EverGagexs.—An injunction was igsued yesterday against Thaddeus Wilson, John A. ‘Weisse, Jacob S.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. } notice in your news article of the 10th some remarks to the effect that the passengers on board the Quaker City, at the time of the accident to the engine, became terribly frightened, and that a panic prevailed among them. The writer was a passenger on board, and being one of the first on deck, had an opportunity to see clearly almost everything which transpired. In justice to the parties re- ferred to, I deemjit proper that such an erroneous impres- sion should be corrected. There is no doubt but the circumstances were quite suf- ficient to create a panic, Awakened in the dead of night by asuccession of crashes which shook every timber in the ship; assembling hastily, altogether unprepared, one might expect to witness the wildest confusion. Such, however, was not the case. When the message of Capt” Shufeldt reached them, that the engine was a total wreck, but he. believed the hull of the vessel to be unin- jured, the information was communicated to a col lection of men and women who exhibited the most perfect calmuess; and when, a few minutes after- ward, they heard of the reportof the engineer to the captain that the ship was filling. and his orders to his officers to prevision and man the boats, as well as the working of the steam pump and the call to man the hand pumps, the additional alarming intelligence was received with equalcomposure. When it was found that the teak was stopped by closing the valve of the injection pipe— which had parted and caused the momentary alarming influx of water—the information that the ship was in all probability perfectly sound, was joyfully received. In acknowledgment of this remarkable calmness on the part of the passengers, Captain Shufeldt requested the writer, who happened to be near him, to go the passengers and thank them for their exeellent behaviour. While waiting long hours until inorning and until near midday for a sail, the same spirit prevailed. It can only be ascribed to the confidence of the people in their commander, for he certainly showed him- self to be the man for the emergency, he had the most perfect control over his crew. It was shown by the silent and orderly maneer in which his orders were promptly executed, all of which inspired confidence. It only remains tosay that the passengers left the ship by the particular request of Capt. Shufeldt, who told ihem that the bark provided for their rescue was a manageable vessel, while his was not, and he would advise them to go.for if a gale should spring upf§he could not, in bis crippled condition, answer for the consequence: ONE OF THE PASSENGERS. The Champion Scullers’ Race at Staten Island. Yesterday afternoon, between the hours of four and six o’clock, there was an immense excitement at Staten Island in and near the Nautilus Hotel. Those interested in aquatic sports, and those not par- ticularly so interested, and those interested in all other kinds of sports and sporting matters generally, were there gathered together in a pretty good number, there being about eight thousand persons present. The Nauti- lus was jammed inside and out, and the narrow slope of grass in front was as thickly covered with spectators as a bee-hive at swarming time. The little bay beneath was dotted from the landing to the fort (Fort Lafayette) with all kinds of diminutive craft, well filled with living freight, and the docks, house- tops and trees, and all available sites, were thronged by an excited crowd. At one minute after four o’clock the race commenced. The boats were placed in a line with the stake boat, in the following order:—Nearest the shore, No.1, was Daw’s boat; next, No. 2. Hincon, the Newburg man’s boat; next, Andy Fay Xo. 3; and next—the outer boat—Jos. Ward’s, the Major Morton, built by himself, and, by the by, also himself a Newburg man. ‘The prize was for a champion’s belt, worth $125, and manufactured by Tiffany & Co., besides $100 cash. The prize for the second best boat, or rather victor, was the sum of $32. * The judges in the starting stake boat were Col. Ray Tompkins, Mr. Peter Murphy, Mr. James Lee, Mr. James McKay and Mr. James White. In the other stake boat, at the fort, tive miles distant, Mr. J. Deremiah, Mr. Charles McCay, Mr. Thomas White and Mr. Henry Dougherty. The weather was excellent for the sport. re was little or no wind, and the tide flowing in gave zest to the sport, by making it necessary for the rowers to pull hard at the start and exert their skill in avoiding the strongest currents, and then lay themselves out for speed on the homeetretch after turning the lower stake boat. At the word, boat No. 1 (Daw’s boat) shot in a straight line for the shore, and bugged the shore tothe lower stake boat. Daw evidently supposed that he would get advantage by this cruise, by getting into the best and easiest eddies. The other boats struck a bee line for the stake boat, and although Ward's was the outer boat, and lad the strongest current to oppose, he came in thirteen seconds abead of Fay, Fay five seconds ahead of Daw, and Daw eleven seconds ahead of Hancon. This was at the lower stake boat. ‘After turning the stake boat at the fort, Jos. Ward had things nearly all his own way. He was ahead through- out, and on nearing the dock was at least three lengths abead of every competitor, coming in first, and making the five miles in 35:10, and winning the champion belt. Andy Fay came in second, Daw third, and Hancon fourth. ‘The excitement as the victor stepped out of his boat was most enthusiastic. The Nautilus was alive with all kinds of vivacity. Speaking nautically, all her sails were set, and those that were “halfseas over” filled full freshly to the breeze, The affair ended with the presentation of the belt to Jos. Ward, a speech from Colonel Ray Tompkins, and also from Captain Jim Turner, and finally a dinner, cham- pagne, toasts, &c., in the Nautilus. ‘The belt, the champion prize, is very massive, of solid silver, ¢ inches wide and quite thick. On one semi- cht regatta is represented, on the other a boat rave; the upper part of the circle being covered with stars and the two semi- 8 divided by a shield and eagle. Police Intelligence. Ixpecent Assavit Upon a Permatg.—Early on Monday evening, while Hannah Lenihan, a servant girl, was walk- ing on the Battery, four rufflanly fellows assaulted her, throwing her down upon her back, and violently ravish- ing her person. After two of them had satisfied their ticndish Just, two more came up, and repeated the ‘The poor girl was shortly after disegyered in an insensible condition by a Police- er 10 the station house. A diligent search scoundrels was instituted, and Thos. Curtis, a car- man, living at 20 Whitehall street, was arrested and iden. titled by the girlas one.of her ravishers. He was brought before Justice Cennoily, and committed to answer the charge. The other guilty parties have so far succeeded in cluding the vigilance of the officers. ‘The complainant is said to be a poor girl out of situation, and in the most destitute condition. ARREST OF TWO AILEGED BURGLARS—RROOVERY OF A Vat. vapie Quantity OF TooLs.—Last evening officers Mathews and Myers, of the Twenty-first precinct, accompanied by detective Slowey, succeeded in arresting two notorious in- dividuals named William and Andrew Curtis, alias Bartto!l, alias Woodhull, charged with being the parties who broke into the jewelry store.of Hood & Co., State street, ‘Albany, about two weeks ago,and robbed it of some twenty thousand doUars. It seems that from the descrip- ton oven of the si parties, the above officers be- came satished that Cartises were the ote ‘West Forty- where both of found. On their premises about dred dollars worth of burglar’s tools were digoo- ponsisting of jimmys, picks, skeleton keys, dark , &c., about one hundred and Ofty pieces; also a Dumber of gold watches, &e., valued at nearly $1,000. They were both conveyed to the Twenty-first ward station house and lecked up for the night. They have both been ae State prison, and were pardone? out by Governor City intelligence Awenican Isemrots FAu—TRIAL OF Tus STEAM PLOUGH. — Tis invention was exhibited yesterday afternoon at Hamilton park by ploughing of about an acre of ground. Opinions differed as to the success of tho machine, Somo said the ploughing was excellent; others that the harrowing and preparing the ground for the seed would be most laborious, that the heavy weight of the machine unfitted the ground for ploughing, that the soil was only turned over and not ploughed, that it would be utterly impossible to use the machine on rocky ground. The inventor claims that be can plough from three to four acres per hour of prairie land free from rocks. The ap- atus is under perfect control, so far as regards the Pirection, speed and leeomotion, but is liable to stop on slippery grass. This can be remedied by a corrugated surface of the drum wheel, and prebably.will be by the inventor. Our reporter could see no reason why the harrow and drill could not be attached, so as to plough and plant at one operation. What says Mr. Fawkes? Dravu o Pavren Cenvsvanians.—From the annual re- port of mortality in this city during this year, now in course of compilation by the City Inspector, we make the following abstract of the death of pauper centenarians: — In the month of February, Rose Dougherty, a widow, born in Ireland, and for forty-nine years a resident of this city, died at the Aimshouse, Blackwell’s Island, at the advanced age ot 109 years. In the month of January, Simeon Chaproan, « colored man, born in. the United States, died in the Nineteenth ward, at the advanced age of 114'yeurs, and was buried at Ward’s Island Cemetery. Nicholas Qsco, colored, born in the State of New Jer- sey, and for twenty-tive years a resident of New York city, died at No, 81 West Eighteenth street, in the Sixteenth ward, at the advayced age of 107 years. Mary Hayes, a widow, born in Ireland, and for twelve years « ident of this city, died at No. 23 Pell street, in the Sixth ward, aged 100 years. From the same source wo learn that the deaths in this city during the year 1857 were 23,333, in the year 1858, 23,694, and from reliable data—the death reports for eight months of this year— there will be a material decrease in the annual mortality bill. ‘Tar Newsnoys’ LopGrnc Hovse.—The night school of the Newshoys’ Lodging House will open on Monday evening next. Al! poor boys desirous of improving themselves are invited to attend, for whom books, papers, &c., will be provided. ‘The following statistics of this excellent insti- tution for friendless and homeless lads afford pleasurable proof .of the various kinds of good it is doing for them. The public is interested in its success:—Number of destitute boys who have been sheltered, for the quarter ending 15th of September, 4,198. Or these, 2,819 had meals, and 47 truant boys have been restored to their parents or friends. A considerable number of boys from this institution have been sent to homes in the West by the Children’s Aid Society. During the period above mentioned there have been only four cases of illness. Sick boys are not sent to the hospital, except when their disease is contagious. They are nursed and receive medi- cal attendance at the lodging house. A spirit of thrift and prospective economy is ee among the newsboys, owing to the establishment of the Bank of the Newsboys’ Lodging House. In this, within the above period, 52 boys have deposited $216 62, the savings from their earn- ings. ‘The bank is opened on the first of every month, and the depositors receive from the institution five per cent | interest (per:month) on, their savings. Since the intro- duction of the Sunday dinners at the lodging house, on the 12th of June last, 869 boys have been saved from the necessity of working’ on the Sabbath at the comparatively | trifling cost of about $49 to the Society. ‘Te New Lecrore oF Prorrsson Mrtcaet.—Calvary Baptist Church, in West Twenty-third street, was filled to overflowing last evening, in consequence of the public an- nouncement that the talented and distinguished astrono- mer, Professor Mitchel, would deliever the first of a series of lectures at that place. The fashion and intelligence of our up-town citizens mustered in the strongest form, and the fine church was crowded in every part. Professor Mitchel, like good wine, needs no bush. ‘that is, he is beyond all. flattery’ or absurd and unmeaning applause. To say that his lecture was a great success would be only to reiterate public opinion in that respect, but it may be as well to state that the subject was entirely new to the citizens of New York. The theme of last night’s lecture was ‘‘The Evidences of the Being of God, drawn from the Physical Universe.”’ The great ideas of the carly philosophers were laid bare to the public, and the learned professor, with much erudition, showed how the beauty and harmo- uy of the universe were amalgamated in the designsof the Creator. It is impossible in a brief notice to condense the lecture, but it may be briefly stated that it was instructive and elegant, and the rest of the series may be anxiously expected. Steamer C. Vanpersit.—The C. Vanderbilt has been placed on the dry dock to repair the slight damage received on Monday afternoon, in Hurl Gate. The Vanderbilt, in en- deavoring to avoid a collision with a schooner that went in stays just under her bow, was forced by the force of the tide upon the rocks. Vanderbilt is slight. again on Friday.

The few lines in the notices of Coroner’s inquests pub- lished yesterday, which stated the bare fact of the death by apoplexy, at the New York Hospital, of Mr. Henry Glynn, were doubtless read with painful interest by a number of prominent citizens, for, though dying in poverty and buried by the hand of charity, he was a soldier, au- thor, artist, scholar, inventor and gentleman. Remarkable for his talents, among all who knew him his modesty was such that few accurate details of his life are known to his most intimate friends. @ general character is known to justify the description of ‘Yet enongh of him given above. Born in England of excellent family, and of extended acquaintance with the world, he was ca- pable of moving in any society, and gave evidence of inti- mate acquaintance with some of the first families of En- rope. He was on terms of intimacy with the Rothschilds and with Thackeray. He spoke and wrote the English, French, Spanish, Italian, German and Portuguese lan- guages with correctness and “fluency, and his ac- cent of either was 0 excellent that it might easily Ve mistaken for his native tongue. He handled ihe crayon with skill, and some of his portraits were remarked for their finish and accuracy. Being well acquainted with a number of gentlemen, oflicials in the New York Hospital, he visited the house frequently, and drew portraits of Mr. E. L. Johnson, Dr. Joker and Dr. Sekrede, as well as an excellent crayon likeness of “ Aunty,” the colored nurse of Ward 6, who has been in the institution eighteen years. His amiable temperament, polished manners, intelligent conversation, inexhaustible fund of anecdotes and social disposition, commanded the respect of friends who would fain over- look his worst fault—his disposition to drown care, and perhaps suffering, in the intoxicating cup. He was a mili- tary man also, having served as aide de camp to General Concha, the Governor General of Cuba, in the famed Spanish Legion, under Sir De Lacy Evans, and under the Portuguese government. He was decorated several times on the field of battle for his exhibition of daring pete and atthe time of his death enjoyed a pension from the Portuguese government as part recompense fora bullet wound received in an engagement—the bullet having passed near the carotid artery, and out at the opposite cheek. He was also the inventor of a water marked bank note paper, which was patented in England, France and the United States, and about five years since he came to this country for the purpose of introducing it. But he realized the fact that neither the banks nor the government evinced any interest in preventing the rapid increase of counterfeit money, which has rendered our paper curren- cy a by-word and reproach. He failed to realize anything from his invention, although the best judges pronounced it meritorious. His talents procured him the entree into the houses of many weakby and prominent citizens,whose friendship was only alienated from him by his weakness when aflorded opportunities to gratify his unfortunate thirst. For the pleasure of his socicty not a few have frequently invited him to make his home with them. But he could not bear misfortune, and at the time of his death occupied a room in Trinity buildings as a studio, and slept at the Globe Hotel. He was too eccentric to apply him- self to steady employment as a means of subsis- tence. He could have realized a handsome competence from his talents, but would be, when in actual need of the necessaries of Hfe, more like- ly to spend his time painting the portrait of a friend than in earning the wherewithal to procure decent raiment. His gencrosity when in better circumstances left him in want in the end, and could he have had the mvans which had been stolen from him by imposing on his good na. ture, he might have been now alive. He had no rela tives in this country, and none of bis acquaintances knew of any immediate difficulties, when on Saturday last he was found ina fitof apoplexy in his room and carried to the hospital. He lingered in a state of uncon- sciousness until Sunday evening, and then died. The ver- dict of the jury was, Death by apoplexy, superinduced by alcoholic stimulants.’? He was interred at the ex- pense of a wealthy gentleman connected with the Mutual Insurance Company, and in a lot kindly furnished in the Cemetery of the Evergreens by Mr. C. 8. .Jo apothecary of the hospital. He was atte by Dr. meron, and received every attention which the justitution could afford. He was eminently worthy of the pit logy, “Tam Marte quam Minerva.” Jersey City News ‘Tae Misevé May Fouxp.—Mr. Daniel Keenan, gen, who disappeared on Thursday night lust under cir cumstances Which led to the supposition that he had boon robbed and murdered on the Bergen plank read, was dis covered by his friends at the Tombe on Mondag wight. # appears that Mr. Keenan left Myers’ Hotel on Thursday evening, and proceeded to New York by a steamboat from Bergen Point, where he fell in with a party, by wtor he was dreadfully beaten, and robbed of about $150 in money, his watch aud other effecte.

Twenty-two United States Cricketers at Philadelphia—Commencement of the Game—Playing of the American Oricketers, dc. ‘The third great match between the English Eleven and twenty-two players of the United States commenced yes- terday at Philadelphia. In no city in the Union has the game of cricket obtained so firm a hold as in the city of Brotherly Love, and the great majority of the membérs of the numerous clubs here are genuine Americans. The progress they have made in the noble game of cricket in so-short a time redounds highly to their credit, for it will bo perceived from the score of the game subjoined, so rar as it has proceeded, that they have actually done more execution, with the loss of nine wickets only, than the whole twenty-two who pares in the New York match. ‘The ground selected fo1 playing of this match was that belor ging to the St. George’s Club, at Camac’s woods, adjacent to the terminus of the Tenth and Eleventh streets city railroad. Owing to the very heavy fall of rain during the morning, it was generally anticipated that the play would be postponed until the following day, and this would account for the limited attendance of spectators during the afternoon. Before 10 0’clock A. M. the rain ceased, and soon afterwards the sun broke out, and its powerful rays soon iried the ground, and a litle rolling placed it in a pretty ir condition for playing. It was consequently past two o'clock before the wickets were pitched, the players par- taking of luncheon before the game commenced, 60 as to give as much time as possible for the ground to be render- ed fit for playing. The managers of this match have spared neither time or pecuniary outlay to render their arrangements perfect. Two extensive galleries of seats were erected on one side of the ground for the accommo- dation of visiters, as well as a large raised platform at the lower side tor those who were unaccompanied by ladies. ‘The accommodation for the scorers and the representa: tives of the press were of the most complete and liberal description, and contrasted strongly with the manner in which they were treated at the previous matches. A vasalsoon the ground and contributed very materially tothe enjoyment of the proceedings of the afternoon. The umpires were, for the English eleven Mr. Julius Cwsar,and Mr. Henry Sharp, the President of the New York Club, for the twenty-two Americans. Messrs. Baker, of Montreal, and Geo. Newhall, of Philadelphia, acted as scorers on the occasion for the re: tive sides. Precisely at 2:40 P. M., Messrs. Lang, of the St. George’s Club of New York, and C. B. Sharratt, of the Philadelphia Club, appeared at the wickets; the twenty-two, having won the toss, going in first. Parr and Jackson handled the ball; the former delivering the first over (a maiden) to Lang. ‘shree maiden overs succeeded, the bowling being ‘too true and good to be trifled with or scored off. In the fifth over from Parr, Lang made a capital slip for two olf Parr, but the latter’ took his revenge by taking his off- stump the first Qall of the next over—one wicket and two. runs. This was an unfavorable commencement, as Lang is always considered to be asafe scorer. W. R. Wister, of the Philadelphia Club, joined Sharratt, and after two maiden overs from Parr and one from Jackson, the latter bowled Sharratt the first ball of the uext over by a beau- tiful ball to the offstump. As he had not placed anything to bis credit, the second wicket fell for the same number ag the first. "A. C, Barclay, of the Germantown Ciub, fol- lowed, and the first ballfrom Jackson sent him back to the tent, thus getting two wickets in two successive balls, three wickets and two runs. S. Newhall joined Wister, and commenced scoring wi it to the square leg for three off Jackson. Parr, in the next over, zota fine bail ball past him, and he retired—four wickets for seven runs. W. Hammond, the professional of the G mantown ‘Club, succeeded, but was not destined to add anything to the score, as he was caught by Grundy at mid wicket off Parr. This was a beautiful piece of tield- ing, as the ball was caught close to the ground—tive wic ets for seven runs. A. H. Gibbes, of the St. George’s Club, followed, and some splendid cricket was now exhibited. ‘They both scored rapidly, and caused Wisden to go on at Jackson’s end. His first ball was finely hit by Gibbes for a single, but in the very next over he took Wister’s wick- et after he had scored nine by 2’s and singles by some really fine cricketing; 6 wickets and 28 runs. He had maintained his position at the wicket for ove hour and seventeen minutes against the terrific cannon balls of Jackson and the seductive slows of Parr. Harry Wright, of the St. George’s, next took the willow in hand, and played very steadily for some time; but tho bowling could ibly be effectually scored olf, so true was it on the Gibbes was now playing in that brilliant style which at one time caused him'to be regarded as cont ly the finest batsman in the States; and after bow! cight overt, six of which were maidens, and obtaining one wicket and only one run got off him, Wisden returned the ball to Jackson. In the next over H. Wright was tempted to step in to one of George Parr’s slows, and, mis‘ing it, his wicket was prostrated after only obtaining asingle by a drive; 7 wickets and 33 runs, Thomas M. Hall, of the Philadelphia Club, next took the bat, and with Gibbes gave tho fielders occasion for a good deal of leather hunting in every part of the field. He made two pretty cuts off Parr for two and a single, and Caflyn took the ball from that bowler. In his first over Caffyn drove Hall back on his wicket after he had placed 3 to_his cre- dit; 8 wickets and 41 runs. Wilby, of the New York Club, joined Gibbes, but the third ball in Caftyn’s second over took his off stump, without troubling the scorers; 9 wickets and 41 runs, ‘Collis, of the Philadelphia Club, made his appearance next, but after a single over from Jackson, time was called and the game postponed until ‘Wednesday morning, in consequence of Tuesday being the day for the city and county election. Gibbes, who was at this time well in, had scored 19, comprising a leg hit for 3, three cuts for 2 ‘each, and singles, all obtained by mag- nificent batting. ‘The total score was 41, as the following | will show:— J. Lang b. Parr,... o C. B, Sharratt b. Jackson... W. B. Wister b. Wister..... A. C. Barclay ». Jackson. W. Newhall b. Parr...... W. Hammond c. Grandy b. Parr. A. H. Gibbes, not out. H. Wright b.

Astor Hovsk, Oct. 10, 1859. Jn your issue of yesterday yon make some remarks in regard to the play of the “All England Eleven,’ now Playing in this country, which are not correct, If you will reter to your files of Bell’s Life, you will find that the “All England” are not always victorious, nor even gene- iy 80. They have played the Broughton Club for the last five years, and have been beaten twice, and the last game, if Iremember rightly, was drawn. And they were beaten by a club in the neighborhood of Sheffield during the past season. You are mistaken also in saying that they always play with twenty-two in the old country: it is not §o. AS an Englishman, I was glad to have the op- portunity of witnessing the great match on Monday and Tuesday last. The playing was very fine, and the sight of so many people at a cricket match was ‘so very unusual as to make it, to an Englishman, really grand. T. B., Man r, England. Fatal Accident in the Seventh Ward. FALLING OF A SWING STAGE OF A FLOATING DOCK— ONE MAN KILLED AND FOUR BADLY WOUNDED. About half past eleven o’clock yesterday forenoon the people in the vicinity of the Seventh ward were thrown into considerable excitement by the occurrence of a fatal accident, the result of the falling of aswing stage suspend- ed on the sectional dock between Pike and Rutgers slips, East river. Several men were on the stage cngaged in ting the side of a section of the dock, when the rope olding the scaffolding broke, and those employed on it fell to the flooring of the dock with great violence. A German laborer, named Lenhardt Haalze, residing at 218 Second street, fractured his skull and died almost instant- ly. The deceased is a married man, and leaves behind him a wife and four children. The body was conveyed to his residence by his people, who were in atten- dance shortly after the melancholy occurrence. Three other laborers, named Henry B. Merritt, George Marrall and William B. Robetrson, who lives at No. 40 Forsyth street, fell against the dock amongst the spikes and rubbish, and it is feared that the injuries they have received will prove fatal. Robertson was carefully conveyed to his home and Merritt to the City Hospital. A fourth person. James Taylor, of 3483; Water street, was precipitated into the water and remained invisible for some time, which gave foundation to the story that he was drowned, but he was fortunately rescued from tho water through the assistance of thoge around. Taylor is almost entirely uninjured. ‘The cause of the breaking of the ropeis as yet unknown, 80 that it is impossible to state whether the accident was the result of carelessness or one of those casualties which no amount of caution can prevent. Coroner Jackman was duly notifled to hold an inquest, but owing to the inability to get together the witnesses tho investigation into the mat- ter had to be postponed until this morning at nine o'clock.
