Public Meett: to Take Place To-Day in New York and Brooklyn—Splendid Chance for Our Wealthy Men and Phi- lanthropists. We are pleased to have it to state that the calamity which has destroyed nearly the entire city of Portland, Maine, has touched a sympathetic chord in the hearts of our authorities and public spirited citizens which will, no doubt, be followed by similar action throughout the country. We wish, in introducing the subject, briefly to state that this affair affords a good opportunity for our wealthy men, merchants, lawyers and philan- thropists, to contribute of their means to one of the most substantial charities of the hour, In passing, we would make this opportune suggestion, that persons, in contributing for the relief of the Portiand sufferers, should see to it that their money or goods goos into the hands of afully authorized committee and take their receipt for the same. By these means imposters will be debarrod from operating as they frequently have done in similar cases, Subjoined we give the proclamation of the Mayor of New York, and correspondence of citizens of Brooklyn with the Mayor of that city, and his response thereto:— a PROCLAMATION OF THE MAYOR OF NEW YORK, Maron's Orvice, New York, July 6, 1806.

Very large amounts were staked on the result before the horses came on the trac! ‘Shi in the second heat, but Wilkes making two, she had the best of him in that line.
