I am aware that severe strictures hay been often utters againat the Marine Hospital provisions ef Havana, through the press of the Uuited States, and I am satisfled thatithas not been without good effect, by causing ‘more wat:bfal care of the sick on the part of those whose neglect were censuced. In consequence of these strictures the Consul General of the United States visited the hospital of Dr. Pellot. The very preparation for such visit was an advantage for the future of poor Jack, and the fact of the visit important, as it might be repeated. 1 found the wards for officors and men in as good: condition a8 could be desired, the bedding clean, well aired, the wards spacious and the ventilation perk Tfound an old friend, father MeDovald, in one of. th rooms recovering from an attack of vomito.

Maretzek has really succceded in obtaining the Teatro Tacon for his her's Italian Opera Company during the ensuing sea- son, I learn from what I consider a reliable source, that he has agreed to pay the heavy rent of $48,000 for the use of the house for four mouths, and that Seuor Marty's son-in law makes $15,000 by the operation. ‘The Villanueva, it is understood, is to be closed. Tendeayored in vain on Saturday to see Signor Alberto Marctuek, having called both at his office and at Le Grand’s | Hotel, where I understand he sojourns, with the object of ascertaining the truth of what I have heard respecting the amount of rent he had agreed should be paid for the Ta- con; but not having been fortunate enough to meet him, I am compelled to send you the statement as heard itfrom. a gentleman, who stated his informant was a party con- cerned, and therefore I suppose it to be the truth. Not- vithstanding this heavy rent and the large salary, Maret- zek, Isce it stated in the American papers, has agreed to pay one of his prime donne; yet, with the really superb | and perfect company of artists, whose names I ‘sent you | in my last letter, copied from the official programme, and the immense capacity of the Tacon, I doubt not but that » put money in his purse; for already, it is d, every box in the first, second andthird ‘tiers ibed for, as aiso every seat in the amfleairo cept about twenty-five, and those the least de- Py in that part of the house.

The Fair at Palace Garden continues to be quite attrac: tive, and is visited by our own citizens and many from abroad. Yesterday, the day deing very propitious, the spectators were present in large numbers. In the machine department there appears to bo an over plus of steam engines, and very litle novel or useful ma- chimery. In the department of science and of art there is a very creditable display, such as paintings, mammoth photographs, oil paintings, sewing machines of endless varieties, pianofortes, &¢.

The number of kinds exhibited are two—oue of & light color, made from white grapes, of a very smooth flavor, is a very delicate wine, which, with a little age, will compete fayorably with the French wines; the next is a dark wine, with rather more strength than the first, and a most excellent competitor with the best imported Madeira. New Jersey has on exhibition a very excellent tmita’ion of port wine, made from the onan Connoisseurs pro- nounce it superb. Besides being highly recommended as a family wine by some of the first families in New J where it bas been introduced, it is held in nigh estimation for its medicinal properties.

During the last few weeks a number of prominent citi- zens have suffered from the depredations of a Germau ‘woman, who, under various pretences, has obtained ad- mission to their houses and seized the opportunity to a- propriate to herself such property ag she could carry of without detection. She is described as being about thirty- six years of age, medium height, dark brown hair ani road forehead, with complexion between light and dark. She usually wore a black silk dress, with two or three Hlounces; a crape shaw], which seemed to have been dyed a plum color, and some faded flowers in her bonnet. She carried a basket of black and white straw, with two lids, opening from the ends and hinged under the handle. Her plan of operations was usually to call at a respecta- ble house and represent that some imaginary poor fam‘ly in Brooklyn wanted help immediately, to save a dying father, a mother or anybody her fancy might suggest. Sometimes she collected funds for them; sometimes, in the temporary absence of the inmates from the room, she would help herself’ to moveables of value, and gono- rally upon leaving she procured a small on the representation that her pocketbook had been stolen, On inquiry at the places designated in Sands street, Brooklyn, as the abode of the suffering par- ties, the dupes discovered the cheat, and had the satisfac- tion’ of knowing that they bad a number of unfortunate predecessors. It is said that by these meaus—simple, and Dy no means new, as they are—a large number have been duped and rodbed. But a few days since a well dressed individual called at the residence of a citizen of note, aud informed the domes- tie that he desired to speak with’ the lady of the house, Being requested to send up his name, he rea lily complied, and the servant started up stairs with the message, leav- ing the supposed gentleman standing in the hall. A slight rustling, however, attracted the gir!’s attention, and turn- ing hor head she Beheld the unknown personaze thrust- ing his hand in the pocket of a gentioman’s coat which hung on the hall rack, but withdrawing it quickly on see- ing that he was observed. With considerable. presence Of mind she went on to the head of the stairs, fabricated an answer, and returning immediately with the reply that her mistress did not wish to see hin, seut the scoundrel about his business without booty.’ Better not let suspi- cious looking gentlemen stand in the hall, and keep move abies out of their reach. Police Intelligence. New CovNTERFEIT ON THE MERCHANTS’ BANK.—On Tues- day afternoon officer Greer, of the Twenty-second pre- cinct, arrested two men named Samuel Russell and Sam- uel Snow, on a charge of having passed counterfeit bills on the Merchants’ Bank of this city. The prisoners, it is alleged, on Tnesday forenoon entered the food and’ gro- cery store of Mr. Wim. Starke, in Fifty-seventh street, be- tween Broadway and Seventh avenue, and having’ ob- tained two segars, presented in payment a one doliar bill purporting to be the issue of the Merchants’ Bank. Shortly after the pair left Mr. Starke began to doubt the genuineness of the bill, and his suspicions wore further strengthened by noticing that they went into other stores in the vicinity and endeavored to pass bilis of the same denominat Mr, Starke thereupon gave information of the fact to the police authorities, and occasioned the arrest of the accused. Officer Greer, on searching the! persons, found upon Snow a one dollar counterfeit on the Mer- chants’ Bank, and three notes of a similar character on Russell, besides two or three dollars in silver.

SOTHER SrammxG Arrnay.—A serious stabbing affray oceurred on Tuebday evening, at the house of Mr. Patrick Welsh in Fighty-seventh street, near Third avenue. Welsh and his wife, Maria, were dangerously stabbed by an Irish laborer, named Moses Statlord, who was until very recently a boarder in their house, and hat beep sent abont his business for not paying a small bill which he owed on that account. On Tnesday a lite child of Weish’s died, and the latter applied to his former landlady for the loau of some money to defray the funeral expenses: of his daughter, Mrs. Welsh stated that she had nomoney to spare, aud Stafford next appealed to her brother, who was present, to assist him. Mrs. Welsh interfered, tell. ing ber brother not to do so, which so enraged Stafford that he seized a knife, rushed upon her, and inflicted a dangerous wound in her abdomen. The husband happen- ing to come in at this moment, Stafford rushed upon him also, and flourishing his knife wildly, made several thrusts at him, and inflicted one very serious wound, He then fied, and Dr. Wright was calléd in to. dress the wounds of Ws and his wife.

INTERESTING LETTERS FROM MR. LA MOUNTAIN—MORE BALLOONS IN PROGRESS. ‘Wr had an interview yesterday with Mr. La Mountain, the mtrepid aeronaut, whose hairbreadth escape: reem to faver the idea that he has a charmed life. fe informs us that he has @ number of balloons in progress of con- striction for transoceanic and other purposes, and by his request we append the subjoined letters: — TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD, Troy, Oct. 11, 1859. xan Sm—Permit mo an opportunity, through the me- digm of the press, to express to the many generous fri: ds who have extended to me their hearty congratula- tioys} on my escape from the Canadian wilderness, my heartfelt thanks; and to those noble men who assisted Mr. Haddock and myself to return in safety to our homes and fanilies, I would say, God bless you. Mr. Angus Cameron, who furnished us food, clothing 4rd shelter—who, in fact, rescued us from the very jaws of dexish—will have a placo in my heart’s purest affections as long as life continues. And to Andrew J. Morrison,"of the Troy Times, who led the search, and to Messrs. Camp, al, Clark, (editor of the Journal,) Clarice, (eat of uss iy ») Mie, Tomlinson, Trowbridge and all the citizens of Watertown, who subseribed liberally and organized in a bodyrto search for us, evineing an interest in our be- hat was as disinterested as it was heroic, I would ex- press my deepest obligations, And finally, the press, whege mighty influence was exercised to clielt an interest ur behalf, and a thorough search for the ‘lost balloon- ”” has imposed upon mea debt of gratitude which I fear nrepay. Ihave received many letters of con- gratuladion, lo Which Tam unable to make separate replies. Among otbers the following from Mr. Hyde, ono the editors of the St. Louis Republican, which I should be glad ‘ou publish, not so much on account of its com- s for myself, as un answer to the sheers of one or vapors which have classed ballooning with rope- nd other break-neck adventures, and bi ts din and De Lave. Very truly, yours, JOHN LA MOUNTAIN. Sr. Louis, Oct. 5, 1859. My Dear La Movntais—Having participated in the general apprehension and concern relative to your late adyenture, I assure youl am heartily glad to hear of your coming out alive, though sorry the trip was so dis- astrovs in other respects, You have had two nar- row escapes, and as an aeronaut your career has probably been the most eventlul, considering its com- parative brevity, of any within tho scope of the istory of ballooning. ‘The life of a man like you, of undaunted courage and calculating intrepidity, possessing qualities besides which are more rare and not jess manly, is too valuable to be lost in the depths of On- tario, or away among the wilds of an almost interminable Cavada forest, and for the sake of your family and friends, for your own sake, and for the sake of the beau- ful art of air sailing, I rejoice that the worst fears felt as to the termination of the voyage of the 22d ult. have not been realized. Do you know, La Mountain, that scarcely a day has passed since our cloud cleaving, lake shipping and tree thrashing ride of last summer, that I have not, in some way or other, thought of you and Wise and Gager. and our wonderful rescue from the terrors of the storm! ‘We ail owe our lives to your presence of mind, coolness and bravery, and Tshall always feel deeply impressed with your conduct on that perileus occasion, when you toiled and sweat to prevent our going down in those angry, lashing waves, that seemed to leap up for the pur- pose of swallowing us all. Whatever discouraging effect may have been produced on you by your recent unlucky adventure, I feel as mich convinced that the dangers of navigating the air are over estimated by the public as 1 did when with unflinching step I got aboard of the Atlantic in Washington ere St. Louis, on the Ist of July last. Those who talk worst about the perils of ballooning regard the prineipal danger as being in mid air, whereas, as you know far betier than I, it all lies in the landing, and under ordinary circumstances this can be regulated, as that stoppage may be effected with perfect ease and safety. Ships, which are commonly guided into port with system and precision sometimes get the better of the navigators, and pitch about at the mercy of the winds until they are wrecked and all on board destroyed. Rail- read trains occasionally run off the track, steamboat boilers explode, coaches upsct, aud horses throw their riders. Even pedestrianism has its perils, and in some serge locomotion of any kind is unsafe. The first time in my life I remember to have experienced fear of railroad traveling was when IT got on the train at Adams, N. Y., and compared the jolting, jumping, clattering, banging, jostle of the cars, with the smooth, noiseless, delightful (though almost imperceptible) motion of the proudly careering Atlantic. Whether balleoning will ever come to anything of importance or not de- pends in a great measure upon the patience and assiduity of those who at present take the affirmative side of t! question. The world was not made in a day, and ¢ hing must have a beginning. You will find many wo may think it exceeding smart to say that you area cash adventurer, and sneer at some of your cherished ideas. You can afford to let these people apply such epithets as may please them to you and_ your projects, go long as you have the sympathy of your friends, which is more. valua- ble than empty greatness. I have written this letter because J feel it is becoming in me, who owe you 80 much gratitude and kindness, to express in some ‘way my sin cere plensure to know of your safety. Trusting when you ssay future voyages in the air (if, indeed, your past :nis- haps may not Have induced your friends to prevail on you to forego the profession) that you may accomplish all you unde: take, and hoping that your life may long be spared. Iremain, very truly, your friend, ‘WM. HYDE. ‘We published some time since Mr. Haddock’s account of the late balloon voyage.. We have now another ac- count before us from Mr. La Mountain in the columns of the Troy Daily Times but as it is in almost every respect similar to that of Mr. Haddock, we give sueh portions only as relate to the various currents and other phenomena which the aeronauts observed. The iutended voyage to Europe by Professor Lowe some time during the present month, in his mammoth baltoon the City of Now York, ives interest to this part of the narrative Tstarted from Watertown to make a short or “local” ascension on the afternoon of Thursday, Sept. 22, at twen- ty-seven minutes before six o'clock.

About twelve o'clock I commenced filling. ‘The gas was made rapidly, and the noble Atlantic soon filled out in beautifully At five o'clock, the in- ni as 1 saw the globe rounded to e equator with the Pure hydrogen. it contajaed, I felt more confident than I had ever done before of making a voyage with which everybody should be delighted. Athali-past five Mr. John’ A. Haddock, editor ‘of the Watertown Keformer, who was to be my companion in a somewhat longer and more exel:ing trip than either of us imagined at that moment, tok his place in the car with me; the word to “le was given, and, like an arrow from a Low, the acrial courier shot up inte the untracked punded regions of space.

This current was one of great depth, as, although we went up to the height of three and a half Tailes, we did not lose it, After reaching an altitude of three miles and a half we took a still more easterly course, As some journals have argued, judging From the point at which we landed. ‘hat the eastern current ts not aluatys reliable, Tpause here to remark that 1 never found it more so than on that Thursday afternoon. 1 thouglit thea, and still continue to think, tat iead TF maintained ax altitude of avoand a haif mites J could lurve crossed the ocean in thirty-six, hours, ani without using any more bailust than in making an ordina- ry local ascension.

At 6:15 we Were still about three miles and a half above the earth, which the clouds entirely shut out from view, and still going almost due east. We continued in this course for a few minutes, remaining almost in equilibrium, when the sun left us, and as the gas became somewhat more dense, we comm to descend. After getting as far as the top of ihe clouds, I supposed that we had left the easterly current, and were traveling due north at the rate of about. twenty-tive iniles an hour. Idid_ not think we had jonr- beyed more than twenty-five miles northeast of Water- town, and if the current was going in the direction T sup- sozed, by keeping ita little while, we would have crossed tho St. ‘Lawrence, landing near the line of the Grand ‘Trunk Railroad, on the direct route for Kingston, where my next ascension was to have taken place, THE RASTERLY CURRENT.

The conclusion reached by the editor of the Brening Journal is very natura), but entirely incorrect. This voy- age did not disprove the theory of a permanent easterly current. So long a8 we remained above the strata of 2, which hung over 1 mile deep, and within five hun- dred fect of the earth, we traveled in a direction north of east. Eyery time we descended, we were carried on the opposite angle. ‘The Journal will understand that I think we journcyed first in the northeast current, probably one hundred and twenty-five miles ina direct line from Wa- trtown, and we should have gone an indefinite distance had we remained there. In descending, we struck a local current, which carried us beyond any question sonth- west, drifting us back over our own track Going down still farther, on passing through the clouds we were canght by the northern current and carried with itto the Canada woods. This stratum I do not conceive tohaye been more than five bundred feet deep, and of inyinense velocity—nnquestionably not less than two hun- dred miles an hour, 1 do not now claim, and never have supposed, that the local currents travel from west to east, or in any’ other fixed direction.

T wish to guard passengers against an imposition prac- tised on them in the small cars of the Eighth avenue rail- road. Passengers paying their fare in the box marked “pay here,” are refused their change if they putin a quarter or half dollar. A lady riding up yesterday in car 60, put @ qnarter of adollar in the box, and the driver re- fused to give her the right change, telling her she must go to the office in Forty-eighth or Fiftieth street after it; but as she bad not the time, was obliged to put up with the imposition.
