NEW YORK HERALD, TUESDAY, MARCH 11, 1862.—TRIPLE SHEET. THE TURF. Cane eae Park Meeting—Successfal Organisation and Liberal bacriptions—A Great Spring Mecting, d&c., dec. On Friday evening, in pursuance of the card of Mr. John L. Cassady in the columns of the Hxgavp, a number of gentlemen who take interest in turf affairs met at No. 818 Broadway to consider the propositions for the revival ef racing in the North. There was a good representation ef gentlemen of wealth and influence. After some in- formal conversation, Mr. Caseapy was requested to state his views to tho company present. He sajd that the gentlemen here present were pretty well aware that this meeting was for the purpose of de- ising ways and means for the giving of races here this spring and fall, and thus initiating a movement which ‘would result in the complete resuscitation of the sports of the turf at tho North, the improvement of the breed of horses hereabout, and the encouragement of horseback exercise among the young men of the Easterncities, He had not originated the idea of this himself altogether, Various gentlemen who felt the desirability of effecting ‘these objects, and also delighted in horse racing as tho most manly and engaging recreation that can be followed, had spoken to him on the subject. ‘They had been led to this by their knowledge that he was acquainted with tho owners and trainers of the great stables of the country, and also knew the racchorses of America perhaps as well as any ether man jn the country, After some considerution of the matter he had come to the conclusion that now was the time to put racing upon a substantial foundation in the North again, and that if it was not effected now it would not be fora long time tocome. It was suggested ‘that he should write to some of the racing men of Ken- tucky, and he wrote to two of his friends who had large stables in that State. By a singular coincidence three of the greatest owners of racers in Kentucky met in Lex- ington, to consider what should be done for the coming season, on the day his letter arrived there. Their con- ference resulted in the deputing of one of them to write to him, in the name of all three, to ask whether a race meeting could be got up in New York this year. One hour after they broke up his letter reachedthem. It is quite positive that a more favorable opportunity for the North could not occur, and if it was suffered to escapo ‘without being made available its like would not soon be within our reach again, There would be but one moeting in Kentucky this spring, it was believed, and there was neither means nor object to take the stables of the ‘Race, ‘hhorse Region” down South. If the stables had any en- couragcment to come North and run, they would come. ‘This first card, published at length in Wilkes’ Spirit of the Times, had been considered in Kentucky. In that ho had set forth his programme for Philadeiphia, and the owners in the West said that ifas much was done at New York they would come and run their horses. But he de signed to do a great deal better for New York than ho had ‘set forth in the programme for Philadelphia. If aid was cx- tended to cnabie lim to do #0, ho would give the best Face meeting that New York had ever seon. It was the metropolis, and no less was called for. Many gentlemen who had intended to be present were not here to night, and perhaps the organization might be deferred until they could attend, Meantime, if it was 80 resolved, he ‘would designate gentlemen to collect subscriptions, and ‘would write to Kentucky to ask detinisely what hors would come. He would then publish the programm announce the purses, &c. Racing had been at a low ebb in New York. ‘There had been but two successful meet- ings since Mr. Boyden established the National Course. All the others had been failu The great trouble had been that there were not horses enough brought here to mako a good meeting. Tho reason was plain; one meet- ing in a particular section was not enough to justify the trouble aud cxpense owners must be at to run at it. A horee might be off on a particular day, and 0 not fit to start; but if there were two other meetings in the neigh- Dorhood the owuer would have good reason to rely upon it that his horse would be in condition for some of them. ‘Then again there had been another reason why the West- ern stables had not come here. Close at hand there had ‘Deen this great Virginia stable, Doswell’s. It had been immensely strong, and rather than come here to run — it the Kentucky men had preferred to take their ces at Woodlawn, Lexington, Nashvilie, Memphis, New Oricans, Mobile, &c. All that was reversed now. From Lexivgton they had nowhere to go, and would come here if fair purses ‘were offered. Transportation bad not been half as good when the stables started in the spring at Votersburg, in Virginia, ran there and at Richmond, Washingtor Baltimore, Philadelphia, Trenton und New York. kven if the Doswells had their stable here this spring it ‘would be an advantage instead of a detriment. He was satistied that the Kentucky men would como to meet THE STEVENS IRON BATTERY. Mr, Stevens’ to Boasd or Rnsmtnesenmoomise: . ts and inions ©: xperts, sproving the tions of the Mac ‘he following is an abstract of an elaborate paper thus entitied, and to Congress:— ‘The Board lately appointed to examine the Stevens bat- tery meen f admit that the parts of the vessel above water, and intended to be shot proof, are invulne- rable; that the g] will be seventeen knots, or nearly twenty miles an hour, even at the re/luced steam pres- sure of twenty-five pounds; that the weight and efliciency of broadside ,*and also the capability of rapid inanceuver- ing, are unprecedented; that all the guns can fire in any divection; thatall the eight engines can be managed by two men; the engine and other framing give the central portion of the vessel great strength, and that tho general objects aimed at are highly important; be- sides which, various matters of detail are approved. After which the majority of the Board base an opinion upon certain objections which they enumerate, that it is / not expedient to finish the vessel “on the plans pro- ? and @ they have described and criticised the vessel in detail, it is fairly assumed that there are no other objections. ‘The minority report of Professor Henry is entirely favorable. ‘Since the objections of the majority were wholly of an engineering character, and tho only engincering experts of the Board—\rofessor Henry and Mr. Stime enually divided in opinion upon them, and wree sea officers of the Board acknowledged that thoy there not experts on these subjects, by asking that a naval constructor might be put on the Board, it follows that there ig no majority report of experts against any eature of this ve: ‘The only objection of the majority deemed material by Professor Henry is that the ship is not strong enough to gotosea. This objection is answered by the certilicate of Messrs. Harlan & Hoilingsworth, of Wilmington, Dela- waro, and Messrs. Neafie, Levy & Co., of Philadelphia, who haye built about two-thirds of the ‘iron ships which this country has produced, that they have carefully ex- amined the battery, and tnd it strong enough to safely stand any weather at sea, This opinion is endorsed by tho certificates of Mr. Erastus \", Smith, of New York, eonstructing engineer of several: camship lines; of Mr. Miers Coryell, Chief Engineer of the Morgan Iron Works, New York, and of other eminent engineers, shipbuilders and shipowners. Again, an approved mathematical com- parison proves the battery as strong as the iron steamers Australasian and Great Eastern, Tho elements of the eee of the battery are then fully and clearly set forth, ‘The objection that the light uppor deck would be * de- molished’? by tiring over it, is refuted by the fact that a fac-simile of the deck of the battery, similarly situated and fired over, in a public experiment, was not even strained or started perceptibly, as witnessed and ac- knowfedged by two members of the Reard. Five days before the date of their report, Mr. Stevens urged tho Board to witness this and other experiments, but they declined to wait and see the fact, and declared that every artillerest knew that the deck would be de- molished. ‘The objection that tho sides of the vessel cannot carry the armor and other weight i refuted by the fact, cer- tifled by Mr. I, W. Smith before mentioned, that a sec- tion of the sido of the yossel itself, cut loose from the adjacent parts, unsupported by the extra bracing de- signed to be, put in, and loaded with above, twice the weight it would have to carry, did not perceptibly yield, as tested by gauges. “Tuo objection that the boilers can safely carry but twenty-five Pounds of steam pressure ig refuted by. the cortiicate of the United States Supervising Inspector of boilers, who states that he proved them with sixty-six and two-third pounds, which would entitle them by law tocarry fifty pounds.’ ~ ‘The Cbjection that the pumps for removing the water used to settle the vessel from the coal buakers, bilgo, &c., would choke with fine coal and debris, is disproved by the certificates of engineers who haye employed the cen- trifugal pumps referred to, above six years, for raising sunken coal vessels; and by the sworn certificates of other engineers, that these pumps, as used for wrecking pur- poses, discharge shells, gravel, &c., and often seventy- five per cont of sand, The objection that the vessel would sink if the shot proof deck fore and aft the casemate was flooded, is answered by the fact that the buoyancy of the shot proof Yarts aboye water more than balances the loss of buoy- aucy by flooding the deck, and that the vessel would set- tle but 143¢ inches. Or, by pumping an equivalent amount of water out of the tanks, or by sottling tho vessel a lit- tle less in the first place, all which is optional, the condi- ton of things as specified in the report could not occur at all, ‘Tho objection that the engine couplings being rigid, the shafts would cramp and heat, is answered by the state- ment of Mr. E. W. Smith and of Mr. Miers Coryell (who has built one hundred and twenty-five marine engines), that the couplings aro not rigid, but sufllciently flexible. ‘the two or threo other objections to matters of detail are comparatively unimportant aud are completely dis- proved. Mr. Stevens attributes the objections to misconceptions on the part of the Board, which he could have removed if the Board had expressed any doubts while he was before the jastead of which, they omitted to witness them, spdake thought, to beat them.

In an appendix thero are presented illustrations and a description ¢f the vessel, a full statement of her fighting qnalities, and the results of elaborate experiments, as noted by Mr. Stevens and by Mr. A. W. Craven, Chief Engineer, Croton Aqueduct Lepartinent, on firing the heaviest ordnance at a target representing the armor of the battery; on the rapid loading of heavy guns by steam and stopping their recoil by india rubber, and on set- Ulng @ vessel into the water for better protection, and rapidly turning her oa her centre by two screw propel- lers. ‘The appendix coneludes with the majority and minori- ty reports of the Board of ee FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

Subscribers of ten dol- Jars each would have all the privileges of the course and stau ies would be admitted free, and he should take such measures to exclude disreputable cha- racters as could not fail of effect. It was his desire to wut the charge of admi-sion to the ground at the very Twest figure. We want the people there. ‘This was gonerally concurred in. The Secretary was instructed to prepare a subscription list, which was done, and forthwith contributions to the amount of near- jad thousand dollars were signed for. The meoting adjourned. ‘A handsome collation was afterwards partaken of, and an animated discussion about racehorses and the compa- rative excellences of the American and English breeds fol . The movement is a certain success, and such roms may be looked for as was never defore witnessed re. This statement corresponds very fairly with the estimate in this morning’s Heraup. The banks have been selling sixes quite freely, in order to lighten their load of government securities. Hence the decline in the loans and deposits. The actual amount ef specie in bank at present is a quarter of @ million more than is shown above. The banks cannot help accumulating specie steadily so long trade continues in its present state. ‘The only danger which they have to apprehend is a revival of importations, which would lead to a renewal of heavy specie shipments to Europe. The money market works very easily. Six pe? cent is about the rule for call loans, thoughsome persons have loans at seven. Paper of the first class ranges from 6 a 7 per cent. The foreign exchange market is very weak, though gold is in better demand. Bankers offer their bills at 112%, but 112 is the best bid. The brokers complain of great dulness in the market. Francs are quoted 6.05 a 5.00. The stock market opened with some weakness to-day, the naval fight at Hampton Roads having encouraged the bears to put out some of their op- tions, and frightened a few holders into selling. But as the call progressed the market grew strong- er, it being evident that there was not real stock enough to supply the demand from the public.
