Bverhard Faler vs, The Schooner Onrust, James Thompson and Others.—This case being called, Judge Nelson desired Mr. George DeForest Lord to proceed with the opening. It appears from the pleadings that the libellant is an extensive dealer in cedar wood in New York, and that in December, 1865, he chartered the schooner Onrust to go to Tor- tugas and bring back a cargo of that wood. It was proved in evidence that after discharging her cargo in three days after arrival she was ready to proceed in the execution of her charter, when she was seized by Quartermaster Peeples, of Fort Jetferson, under the orders of General ‘Hill, and ordered to go to Key West for a eargo of coal for government use. the master protested inst, and pleaded his charter as the Teason of refusal. On this the quartermaster gent a sergeant’s guard under arms on board and compelled him to go as he was directed, ‘was then under compulsion sent for the coal, which she brought from Key West and delivered at Tortu- when she was again seized and sent back for another cargo of coal, and was not released from this compulsary service until long after she was due in New York according to the terms of her charter. When released by the quartermaster he procecpen to eomply with the orders he had received in New York to take in a cargo of wood and was refused; but finally, after some remonstrances with the mer- chant in Torta he the serge vader protest, and delivered it in A) If she not been de- tained by the compulsory service referred to she woukd haye completed her charter duty fully months sooner, and during this detention the value ef cedar wood declined in New York fully fifty cents per cubic foot. There is a volumMoug mass of testi- mony in the case, which Judge Nelson said it would not be necessary to read. He would hear the plead- ings in the case, and should it be deemed essential to refer to the evidence the portions required might be read. Decision reserved. , COURT OF COMMON PLEAS—SPECIAL TERM. ‘Phe Gift Enterprise Swindle Again in Court— Application te Discontinue the Injunction Against the Sand River Petroleum Oil Com- pany—The Case of Kelly & Co. Before Judge Brady. Eliis Elias vs. Kelly @ Co.—The exposé of the gift enterprise fraud which appeared in the HERALD some weeks ago has been attended with beneficial} results, whether regarded as a warning to those who have nobas yet been swindled or the enlightenment of the ‘thonsands of dupes who have been egregiously Reeced and who, it may be sopcsed, will be Neeced mo more, The Sand River business was adroitly managed and deserved the commendation of all Yogues and pickpockets. Fortunately, however, the penainis, of “honor among thieves” did not Lad prevail, for, having rob! each other, the spoilers turned against each other. As previously stated the dodge was to sell the tickets at $1 each. Purchasers ‘were then advised that they had won gold watches, grand pianos and other valuables, which would at once be forwarded by express on the receipt of the reentage of the prize, amounting Aenerally to about Rio: Transported with delight at their unexpected Juck, and caring little fora trifle when a big prize was just within their grasp, the percentage was in most ‘cases remitted without delay. Then came the long hours of suspense—but no prize. Some were untir- ing in their applications, and perhaps after repeated remonstrances the long expected glit arrived in the of 150 shares in an oll company ‘iving heavy dividends, not in substance, but imagination. The certificate was always admirably engraved giving a sketch oF the locality, showed the mills busy at work and industrious laborers toiling hard for the benefit of the shareholders. But, inasmuch as the locality of the company’s operations was not clearly defined there was not alittle dificulty in ascertaining its Precise geographical position, and the fortunate ‘winners of the shares were content to lay them by for a rainy day, happy in the thought that road con- tractors would one open up a straight path to the mine. The bullion poured into the coffers Of the cunning speculators, and simpietons smiled at their own folly; and had the matter not been timely brought under the notice of the authorities— mot by the dupes, for they had deprived themselves of all legal rights by their peepee in the en- terprise—but by one who had invested $8,000 in the business as a partner, who, deluded like the others, applied for an injunction tes | Kelly from pro- ceeding with the undertaking. hen the matter tly came up before the court, both parties were Eoremiptorily prohibited from in any way pro- pe in the fraud, which was happily for the time suspe!

Bishop, 213 Greenwich street, ‘was yesterday arrested by detective Tilley, of the Third precinct, on the charge of stealing a quantity of boots and shoes from the store and conveying them to his boarding house in Broome street, where they were found by detective Tilley. It is alleged that the er went to his employers’ store early in the eee nearly — sai before the bee time of opening, and, ig ing up the goods, sent them away bye aes . Bishop subsequently called upon Captain Uiman, of the Third precinct, in relation to the matter, and detective Tilley was detailed to work up the case. Justice Dowling committed the accused to the Tombs for trial. Only a few weeks since Smith was gina d detective Tilley, on suspicion of being concerned in stealing @ diamond ring, valued at $250, from Mra. Sarah pmphre: , living in Sixth avenue. The prisoner denied it, but confessed that a young man — yet arrested) in his company stole the jewel. In the absence of the necessary proof Smith could not be held on that complaint. ASSAULT WITH A CLUB AND VIOLATING THE EXCISE Law.—George Bennett, a German, who keeps a sa- loon at No. 124 Greenwich street, was arrested by oficer Gleason, of the Twenty-seventh precinct, on the cl of having assaulted and beaten Dennis Guinan, of 126 same street, over the head with a heavy club; Guinan made an afMdavit against ac- cused. The officer also entered a complaint against Bennett for Mb the Excise law, and Justice Dowling committed him to the Tombs for trial in de- fault of $500 bail on each complaint.

Yesterday . Van Dalson received a note from Joseph Levi, No. 14544 Hester street, stating that he had the pers. Calling at the place specified the writer of the note produced the papers, but claimed to know nothing of the other property. He said he obtained the papers from a mar who got them froma boy who was blacking his boots. Instead of getting the re- ward evidently anticipated for giving up the papers Mr. Levi was arrested and taken before Justice Shandiey at the Essex Market Police Court, who ordered his commitment for examination in defanit of $1,000 bail. Rowing OFF Witt a Doctor's GiG.—Dr. Burke left his gig standing yesterday at the corner of Third avenue and Seventy-fifth street while he was making A prefessional call, and when he came back found his conveyance had been taken away. Some time afterwards the establishment was found in the pos- session of two boys, who were having a fine ride up the Bloomingdale road, and when discovered were at 108th street.

ALLEGED KIDNAPPING.—Mrs. Margaret Dwyer, of | No. 11 Willett street, was yesterday arrested and taken befors Justice Shandley, of the Essex Market Police Court, on a charge of kidnapping. It appeared on investigation that Mrs. Silvernail, the complain- ant, three years ago received from Mrs. Dwyer her danghter, then three years old, for adoption, the mother being unable to support her. Some time ago the mother obtained possession of her child and re- fused to give her up until compelied to do so by an order of Judge Barnard, of the Supreme Court, be- fore whom the case was brought. Two days since the mother again got sion of the child and again refuses to give her up. The Judge directed the complainant to present her case to the Supreme Court, which course will be taken.

Shecking Tragedy im tBe Eighth Ward—A Man Kills His Wife and Comuiits Suicide— Avdther East River Mystery—Supposed Murder ef an Infant—The Forged Check Operation, - Brooklyn is enjoying an unenviable reputation at the present time, from the fact that one crime follows 80 close upon another that the public mind scarcely recovers from a single shocking event when it is Startled by another. Yesterday the HERALD chron- icled a terrible affair in East Brooklyn, the case of an insane policeman attached to the Forty-ninth pre- cinct, who beat his wife with his club m so shocking @ manner that her life 1s dispaired of; but another and still more terrible tragedy occurred yesterday at Gowanus, South Brooklyn, A young man, but recently married, murdered his wife and then shot himself through the heart. There is also another East river mystery, and yesterday’s chapter of crime is completed by the discovery of the body of a mur- dered infant. The most shocking case which has occurred in some time was that of the denberate murder of @ young wife by her drunken husband yesterday qnorning: The circumstances of the case are as fol- lows:—It ee that Alonzo McCormick, twenty- two years of age, reached Brooklyn with his wife (who was but eighteen) two days since, in search of employment. He came from No, 50 Park street, New- ark, N.J., where he had been residing with his father, @ gentleman in circumstances, and applied for work to Mr. John Walsh, who had formerly em- ployed him as a harness maker, and who lives in a small cottage house in Sixth avenue, near the corner of Third street, Brooklyn. Mr, Walsh, however, stated that he had no work to give him at the time. McCormick told him that he was without any means and knew of no space where he could go and get any- thing to eat, and that his father had turned him out of doors in col uence of his intemperate habits. He promised Mr. Walsh that if he would allow him and his wife to remain at his house he would stop drinking and go to work atonce, Mr. Walsh, who states that he has been acquainted with him for a long time consented to allow him to remain at his house, With the exception of his addiction to drink he was a fine young man, and since his mar- riage had lived very amicably with bis wife. Last evening they went out together, but his wife re- turned at a late hour without her husband, McCor- mick returned home in a state of intoxication about eleven o’clock yesterday morning, and his wife, who was at the time in the Kitchen with Mrs, Walsh, ob- serving his condition hastened up stairs to meet him and persuaded him to lie down, While Fern, the bed in the apartment which had been assigned them and performing other duties, McCormick drew a small pistol from his pocket, stepped up to his wife, who had her back turned toward him at the time, and disc! it. He had the muzzle so close to her head at the time that the powder burned her hair. The ball entered the head just back of the right ear. The unfortunate woman fell forward has her knees; her face resting upon the bed, which she had just been preparing for her husband. He then took a second pistol from his pocket, and as Mr. and Mrs. Walsh, who had been Startled by the first report were about entering the — rool to ascertain the cause, placed it to his breast and discharged it. The load entered his body in the region of the heart, and he fell neavi- ly on the floor on his back. It was a shocking scene, for the blood flowed from the wound in Mrs. McCor- mick’s head and ran down her dress, over the bed and over the floor, while the clothing of the body of the murderer was also besmeared with the blood which poured from the wound in his breast. Neigh- boring physicians were at once summoned, but when they reached the house they found that Mrs. McCor- mick was quite dead. Death had resulted almost im- mediately after she had been shot. McCormick, how- ever, was still alive and had his senses. When asked why he committed the deed his only reply was, “Rum didit.”” He had no other reason, as he loved his wife and she had always been most Kind to him. An ex- amination of the wound disclosed the fact that it ‘was mortal and that the unhappy man could survive but a few hours. It was reported last evening that he had died from his injuries. The parents of the ei were telegraphed for and the Coroner noti- led. AN EAST RIVER MYSTERY. At an early hour Figo dent morning a party of laborers at the foot of Conover street, South Brook- lyn, discovered the body of a man floating in the river near the docks, It was secured by a rope, and the police were notified. When the body had been re- moved from the water it was found that the deceased had a large, deep cut on the back of his head, which, from appearance, had been in- flicted by some heavy iron instrament. There were iso «other marks about the deceased which gave rise to the supposition that he had been the victim of foul play. It was evident from his dress that he was a man of means, yet there was nothing about his person which would lead to his identification. He was dressed in a dark cloth sack coat, dark cloth pants, vest, white shirt and undershirt. The deceased was about thirty-five ears of age and five feet eight inches in height. The iy Was removed to the deadhouse in Willoughby sireet, near Raymond, where it awaits identification. Steps are being taken to solve the mystery which sur- rounds this singular case. SUPPOSED MURDER OF AN INFANT. Yesterday morning the body of an infant but a few days old was found lying in the courtyard at the residence of Mr. Wiltiam Marshal at the corner of Green and Clinton avenues, It was taken to the Forty-fourth precinct station house, where an ex- amination disclosed the fact that it had in all proba- bility been murdered the night previous, There were finger marks upon the neck, and from the dis- coloration of the skin it had, do doubt, been strangled to death and then cast in the courtyard where it was discovered. The body was handed over to Coroner Slattery. THE FORGED CHECK OPERATION, Since the arrest of the three men yesterday, Ver- ney, Delfor and Prez, for passing forged checks on the Brooklyn Central Bank, the police have been busy in hunting up other parties concerned in the affair. Joseph Prez has been identified by the omi- cers of the bank as the man who opened the ac- count in the name of James Radwell. This man, it will be remembered, presented forged checks to the amount of $6,000, which the ofMcers of the bank accepted on deposit. The checks have the signature of Fisk, Hatch, & Co. Prez is a Belgian by birth, about thirty-two years ofage. He seemed to have no hesitation in acknowledging the part which he had taken in the swindle; for, after being committed by Justice Riley, and while on his way to jail, he told the officer that when the boy failed to return he knew something must be up. He also added that he had “things fixed” to get $50,000 from the banks, and would have done so had not Verney and Delfor been caught. The officers succeeded in getting possession of the press and plates from which the forged stamps. were printed, and yesterday they were successful in pe cveninn J a fourth party, who is aiso alleged to be im- plicated in the swindle. The prisoner gave his name as Alphonso Bret and his occupation as a printer. ‘The prisoners were all taken before Justice Cornwell esterd where Mr. Pruyn, the President of the Brooklyn Central Bank, made a charge against them of forgery. ‘The acensed pleaded not guilty and were remanded to jail to await examination, THE PRESERVATION OF THE DEAD, A number of physicians, surgeons and medical students gathered yesterday afternoon in the lecture room of the Bellevue Hospital Medical College to witness the results of anew and what bids fair to prove a wonderful discovery in the way of a process for preserving the human body after death. Two subjects were on exhibition, embalmed by this pro- cess, in which death had occurred respectively on the 11th of February and the s0th of April last, both of which manifested to the casual spectator no sign, by either sight, touch or smell, of the long period ad elapsed since death, piessor Doremus, under whose supervision an experimental aulopsy of one of the bodies was made, how that the preservation was not con- je surface, ‘s and eve’ but extended to the viscera, the mus Portion of the internal system, opened the exhibition with a few prefatory remarks; reciting the {my t and unsatisfactory processes which hed been in vogue for preserving the dead ever of the E, Dr. Janeway then dissected the body, which had been lying thirty days since death, kept in the laboratory under lock and key. To the scaipel it ytlans, presented the flaccid condition usual imme. diately fter dissolution and the sight and touch were perfectly normal. As the knife pro- ceeded with the disembowelment of the subject and the viscera were brought to sigit and removed no odor was perce| save the strong, fleshy smell which Is inseparable from the fresheat corpse When the internal portion is opened to the alr, Pieces of th er and kidneys were cut out and passed aroun among the spectators that a more Tainute test might be given of the thoroughness of process, Dr, Doremus explained that the fuid : Whick the preservation had been effected had en introduced through the veins or by cutting flesh, Which was 80 greatly objected to by the ead, but by simply forcing it into the the friends of the mouth and other natural apertures of the body, whence it subsequentiy permeated all the tissues, preserving them in the wonderfui manner just re- vealed by the autopsy. Professor Hamilton suc ceeded Dr. Doremns and testified that he had ex- nined the subject under exatination and could not distinguish it from one _ recentl, dead. Professor Flint, in some more extend remarks regarding an analysis which he had made of the muscies, liver, kidneys and lungs of a subject treated by the procesa, gave the result of his observa- tions, The functions referred to were all in a normal state, 80 far as the eye was concerned, but had un- dergone some slight structural changes as to their atomic formation, which, however, were favorable to the preservation of the tissue. The spectators seemed perfectly satisfied with the result of the experiment and autopsy.

Panis, May 15, 1868, A very serious and not unjust complaint was lately couched in unpleasant terms loud enough to strike myear. It was at a matinée, Some unfortunate fashion writer had produced @ letter in which he held forth that the soul of a lady was in her pocket handkerchief, This heresy was not intended male- volently; the writer, full of his subject, being enthu- siastically devoted to perfume, simply meant that the choice of the essence or bouquet of essences made by lovers of scent either discloses a soul bound down to temporalities by either Patchouli, Maréchale or ‘Jockey Club.” I must own that my colleague, and in general all fashion expounders, do go rather far. There are no adjectives strong enough in the French language to express common approval; they lay the whole dictionary at their feet, from which they pick up sonorous ex- pletives by the dozen, and fancifully adapt them to trimmings until the misuse of words has become in- comprehensible to matter-of-fact readers, They think it is very grand and sensational when speak- ing of a milliner who has made a bonnet to express the fact thus:—“‘Mme. So-and-so has edited a crea- tion of her own;” agd when speaking of a gentle- man’s new Coat they say, ‘Mr. So-and-so’s prestige was signed Dusantoy.”” This is gibberish, and the complaint I heard was just, in one sense. ‘Fashion writers,” said an angry lady, when discussing the captive soul, in a pocket handkerchief, ‘are sicken- ing.” Then turning to me, never suspecting, poor, innocent Nemesis, that I could—oh, no—that I could write the fashions, she asked, ‘Why can’t these rosewater officials give reliable information on in- dispensable common subjects without any disloca- tion of language at all?’ I approved of the substance of her objections, though not of the form thereof, and when she pressed further to know more of my opinions I told her that if ever I came to write on the fashions I should remember her advice and thus treat of indis- pensables. The irritable lady snapped her fan to- gether with brio enough to crack my nose, and Jerking up her train, left me alone on the sofa. Ladies do not look well im a passion, neither can I with sincerity say they look well in unmitigated panniers. Many have been tried, but the camel ap- pearance is not defeated by any. The most pro- digious pannier yet seen made its appearance in a store window of the Boulevards last week. It is calidad, of course, ‘Jmperatrice,” which is simply high treason. There are two steel baskets, one for each hip, exactly lke the wicher receptacles in which butlers carefully carry old port or chambertin up to table; between these bulges out @ hump far behind, and this is only the under founda- tion for puffy. Silk contrivances above! With such @ compact affair as this on the trunk trade will fall, asevery possible convenience for travelling can be safely deposited within the hip baskets, Panniers have come out somewhat more boldly in the public streets since my last; only the wearers are ill at ease. They get stared at, and often take to Jtacres very suddenly. It is not unlikely they will carry the day at a long run, because it 1s supposed maid servants will never be able to adopt this style in imitation of theirladies. It is fallacious to suppose that they will not, though if they “come up to missus” in this they will outdo every chance left of securing my lady’s admirers. This question of mistresses and maids lies at the bottom of Mme. de Pourtglés’ short petticoat ball, of which so much is still Wing talked, In my last correspondence I gave a descrip- tion of it and informed your readers that the length of petticoats had on that occasion been subject to réglementation, in order to inaugurate short skirts in ball rooms. 'Tiris curtailment was first instituted in our times by Lady Cardigan, at the Baden races of 1861, The reason it failed was the inordinate love of French chambermaids and milliners’ grisettes for “brodequins,” or tight boots. A tight boot to a Parisienne of the lower orders of society is the glory of her life. The gift 01 a pair of shiny leather tip) boots, with heels like stilts, is the most certain key to the soubrette’s heart. Se thinks more of them than of a fine gown, just as she thinks more ofa parasol than of abonnet. Well, this being the case, of course Lady C: n found she had done an un- wise th with her starter; for, wonderfuk to notice, an Engiis! ? foot @ sad spreading thi near the grisette’s nimble, elegant, tiny toe and heel, paddling through macadam or running over pointed, towering stones, on which it rests, #1 op or on plain asphalt, where it shows off a curve. All the bandbox carriers in Paris took to short pet- ticoats as naturally as English lords took to band- boxes, and the fashion fell. What is going to happen now? Mme. de Pourtalés has taken a great social sibility on herself, and it is much feared hip must inflate daily. Having thus entered on a few social considerations in the higher order of ideas, 1 descend to specialties, the first being Mme. Céline Moutaland’s new bon- net; the lady is an actress at the Gaité. Her bonnet is a subject of envy, not because it is Mec vba to her bosom friends, but because it becomes her. It is a garland of ebon blossoms in black lace, with a yel- low scarf. It is. useles to inquire where she got the idea from, ebon blossoms not being common, and how she, by intuitive instinct, knew it would be a staggerer to every one; ask the rose how she knew a drop of dew would make her natural blush so lovely before she took to courting these rly drops. Céline Moutaland ho! a vision; and, | must say, no bonnet I have seen out of dreamiand comes up to hers, ‘The bill given at the Opera on Saturday in aid of the funds for the International Institution, founded for the purpose of assisting the wounded, was cer- tainly the most splendid entertainment of the season, The scene from the boxes was fairylike. Palm trees were figured by spears and bending sword blades; trophics were erected of naval and military weapons; liars of guns with shooting were surmounted By tne flags of ail nations. The artillery had been assisted by engineers in the decoration of this de- partment, and among ali this sparkle of steel and gilt, relieved by bronze, floated o_— attire behind roups of exotic shrubs from the mi ge hathouses. The orchestra, led by Strauss, played ents from “Hamlet” and Auber's “First Day of iness ’ when not inspiring dancers with polkas, redowas and waltzes, It was at one moment like the ‘Ara- bian Nights,’ and that when the Emperor and Em- press entered their box. The bodice of the Empress’ blue robe was covered with diamonds. As soon as enthusiastic cheering had subsided the quadrilie of houor was formed by Princess de Metter- nich, Comtesse de Pourtalés, Comtesse de Moltke, Baronne de Zuylen, with the Ministers and Ambassa- dors for partners. One set of ornaments in the ocean of light was remarked. It was worn by Comtesse de Romanges and made of alternate white and black diamonds, She it is who possesses the “black regent,” a large stone of immense price mounted in the centre of an aigreite of white diamonds. Madame Fernan Nufies wore 2 ducal coronet that, however splendid, could not compare with the black and white set in point of originality and unique effect. Beyond jewels there is little left by way of toilet to describe, when once green, blue, ruby, emerald or ellow satin trains have been mentioned. A court jady is ali train at one extremity and diamonds at the other, ‘Vhe lair was dressed more or leas & antique. A novel flower, that looks well and uncommon in the new poults of hair, is a black poppy with a dangling bud; the heart of the principal dower is naturally a big diamond. Ladies who have not got any need not think of black poppies, nor indeed presume to — balls anywhere, for diamonds are primary con- siderations In Parts circles, Husbands nm not throw down this paper either. Ido not ask them to marry wives; they are only told that diamonds are the consequences of matrimony. This was the thought that struck me at Princess Salome de None wedding, when she became one with Prince Achille Murat at the Greek church; the queerest place to get married in, by the way, LE have ever seen, At the hour of ten the indissoluble bonds were Joinga, at nine the small chapel was full of Murats, alakomts, Mouchys, &c., &c.; it was also full of marquises, counts, dukes, small viscounts insignificant barons and other “small fry,’? much looked down on by the court flankeys, All the ladies present were in low bali attire. The chapel was like a Pye room, every one standing. The bride wore the 30,000 franc robe; the bride- the uniform of lieutenant of the th hus- sars; the bride’s brothers were in national red smock frocks, with cartridge bags on their chests. A sea pearls and diamonds surrounded the altar, but the young people I pitied most were not the couple married so much as the bridegroom's men, who had to hold white wreaths over his head all through, just high enough to dangle tike bird cages without tickling his august nose. Fortunately there were four of them to take turns, for Prince Achille is tall and his friends were short. Notwith- standing constant change of hands these arduous helpers arrived at the last degree of fatigue before the ceremony was over. As the officiating priest read the service in a lan- guage I have not been educated in—a language which must be peculiarly disagreeable when one forgets one’s pocket handkerchief—I do not know what War said to the happy couple, but they drank something ont of the same giase and seemed to know all about that, When ft was over the bridegroom kissed hie mother-in-law’s hands, and the bride had her's kissed by her husband's father. Princess Salomé has been yery carefally educated, and report save very etrictily; that she had to get up n- ts to for five hours are THE TURF Two Trotting Matches at Fashion Course Be- tween Little Rat and Lady Lovell, Little Louis and Gray Horse Frank—Little Rat aud Gray Horse Frank Making the Best Time. Yesterday opened very inauspiciously for racing purposes, the sky being densely cloud- ed and the rain falling occasionally, with an apparently solid determination to continue. Now and then the sun ventured to gleam ut with a sultry faintness, only to prelude the dropping of light and fitful showers. These caprices gradually tapered off, until mist-like the weather softly glided into only warmth and cloudiness. Shortly before the appointed time for the races to begin the clouds thickened and darkened and gave promise of a watery visitation at almost any unex- pected moment, With this unpleasant uncertainty impending the sport began and ended yesterday afternoon at Fashion Course. Two matches had been made several days before between P. Manee'’s gray gelding Shelah’s Ghost, or Little Rat, to a ninety pound wagon, and J. Dugrey’g bay mare Lady Lovell, in harness, mile heats, best three in five, for a purse of $100. *The other match, for a purse of $400, was between William Borst’s gray gelding Little Louis and John Edgell’s Gray Horse Frank, both of which had never before tested their speed on the turf, Little Rat, or Shelah’s Ghost, is a diminutive, skeletori-like Epectines, of horge flesh, about thirteen hands high and six hundred pounds in weight. He has trotted frequently before, having once beaten Miller’s Damsel, sired by St. Lawrence, and is a short, quick stepper, but spavined in both hind legs. He was the favorite at the rate of two to one at first, in subsequent pools bringing three to two and in the last they both sold even. ly Lovell, a bay mare slightly over fiiteen hands high, is a half sister of Rose Washington, out of the Napoleon horse stock. She isa square trotter and promises well. She has beaten Duane’s mare in three races on this course. Both contestants were in fair condition. im The attendance was nieagre, not over one hundred Persons being present. THE RACE. First Heat.—At the appointed time these two horses made their appearance on the track, which was rather dead, though not as bad as anticipated. Little Rat won the pole. After several upsuccessful Saabs they moved off together, Lovel! soon trot- ead, but breaking presently Little Rat passed her and made six le! The bay mare recovered and gained steadily, Little Rat, however, reachingthe arter pole in forty-three seconds, one length ahead. reaki into a run along the back stretch Lovell assed the bay horse one length, and then breaking aily again the latter trotted ahead twelve lengths, maintaining this advance until the half-mile pole was passed in 1:27. Along the Flushing end the bay mare broke in, extending the space to twenty lengths, Ne ing the three-quarter pole she gained until about ten lengths behind. She entered the homestretch, along which she alternately broke and recovered, Feecing. the score eighteen lengths behind Little Rat, ‘Time, 2:583;. Second Heat.—Lovell again trotted ahead, but soon broke, falling four lengths behind, maintaining this difference irregularly until the quarter pole was reached in forty-three and a half seconds, On the backstretch Littie Rat steadily gained over the irre- gularities of the bay mare, passing the half-mile le in 1:26, fifteen lengths ahead.

She broke badly on the homestretch, but soon recovered and trotted head and head with Little Rat, reaching the score half a neck in advance of the bay horse, win- ning the heat in 2:53, e judge at the end of this heat announced that the owner of Little Rat had withdrawn aud that all bets were off.

Head and head they moved slong the turn, Louis breaking into a gallop and passing the quarter-pole in 424; seconds four lengths ahead. Along the backstretch the gray horse ined gradually, until, as they passed the half-mile pole in 1:23, daylight was shut out before them. The bay horse ran away with his driver, pane considerable distance between him and the gray orse. The latter, however, set to work. rapidly, closed the breach, and, before traversing over the Flushing turn, had passed, him, reach- ing the three-quarter pole five lengths ahead. Down the homestretch Louis broke again and ran away with his driver, org Frank, but after, with some difficulty, being reined in, the gray horse gradually gained, and finally made the score five lengths ahead, winning the heat in 2:43. p@Second Heat.—Louis had the adyantage at the st but both were head and head shortly after- wards. The gray horse then accelerated his action and advanced two lengths in front of his rival. In this position he reached the quarter pole in forty seconds, Along the backstretch Frank gained two more lengths and held his own until near the middle when Louis broke into a gallop, closing up the space which, when he was recovered, was as ey revealed again, the gray horse reaching the half-mi) pole in 1:1834, two lengths ahead. This position was maintained along the Flushing stretch until near the centre, when Louis broke badly and fell back twenty lengths, the gray horse still gaining and reachi the three-quarter pole twenty-five 1engths ahead Along the homestretch the bay horse strained e' nerve and gained rapidly on Frank who, however, accomplished the score twelve lengths in front of nis ram) ous compeer.

Along the backstretch Frank gradually closed uP the breach, but lost again as Louis galloped and wildly ran away, passing the half-mile pole in 1:24, two lengths ahead stil, In the Flushing end they closed up head and head, until when near the three-quarter pole the gray horse broke up and Louis rushed by him and down the homestretch a length ahead. Bending himself to the work the lost ground was regained, until head and head they swept along the ee stretch, mak- ing the score simultaneously in this position.

Yesterday morning Coroner Keenan was called to Bellevue Hospital to Aold an inquest over the re- mains of a young man named Richard Butler, who died there the night previous. It appears that late last Tuesday morning the deceased was found lying on the sidewalk in Varick street, near Downing, in a state of insensibility, by an officer of the Twenty. eighth precinct, who conveyed him to the Greenwich street station house. Butler bore unmistakable evi- dences of hard usage. After remaining for a time under the doctor's care in the station house he was ee restored to consciousness, when the officer in command asked him who beat him, to which he made no reply. Subsequently he said he had been beaten, but it was while he was among his friends, and he therefore refused to give any information whatever concerning the matter. Being considered in @ dangerous condition by the phys clan in attendance, Butler was conveyed to the jospital, where death ensued as stated. A partial examination of the body yesterday showed that both eyes were sadly discolored and the nose na be- sides which deceased had received a terrible blow over the right eye with some sharp instrament which fractured the skull, that causing death. The origin of the affray which resulted in Butler's being fatally beaten and the cause which prompted him to de- Cline telling the officer who beat him, also under what circumstances it was committed, are yet shrouded In mystery. Jn order to give Capt Dick fon, of the Twenty-eighth precinct, and ficers of his command time to arrest the guilty parties and obtain the necessary evidence, the inquisition was tponed till Wednesday next.
