Thoy are of rare occurrence, Yesterday, however, will be regarded as one of the noted days in the annals of the trotting turf, and the scone of operations the Prospect Park Fair Grounds of Long Island. A large assemblage of wealthy and intluentiat citizens, with their famtlios and frieuds, met tuere to behold the trotting that was to take place during the after- noon. It was the first time that many of them had ever witnessed anything of the kind in their lives, and, much to their gratification, they beheld some of the finest trotting that ever took place in America. Many of the gentlemen who visitell these grounds on ‘this occasion had previously refrained from attend- ing trotting races, under the impression that they were a lower order of amusemeuts than thoy were desirous of witnessing, and rarely patronized by men of influence and standing in society. The scene of yesterday had the effect, however, of dis- pelling the cobwebs of prejudice and of creating the belief in their minds that trotting was indeed one of the national recreations of American gentlemen, aud sustained by the respectability, wealth, and influence of the community; for of such men are composed the members of the Prospect Park Fair Grounds Association. Who ever saw an assem- blage of 15,000 persons on a race track composed of more respectable citizens than were present at the Park? Not one of them went away dissatisfied, and all highly applauded and commended the doings they had witnessed on that track, Two trots were on the programme for the day's On the 16th instant the Spanish war steamer Marsella entered the Bay of Nipe and was received with a sharp fire from the artillery.

Mons, Alexander Chevalier, 8 Paris wronaut, who has come to this country to undertake a balloon voyage across the Atlantic, made his first preliri- ary ascent yesterday afternoon at Landmann’s Hamilton Park. M. Chevalier’s arrangements for his pertious venture have been suggested by the ex- perience acquired in his 166 mronautic voyages, several of which have become mistoric, such as that made in “Le Géant’’ from Parts in 1864, when his party of seven persons, including the Prin de la Tour d’Auvergne and the vrothers Godard, tra- versed the Continent at the rate of 1,590 mites in af- teen hours; that in 1367, when he crossed the English Channel from Dublin, and that in 1868, when he ascended from Huil, England, to the unequaled altitude of 30,000 feet, His means for maintaining the buoyancy of the balloon during his Atlantic trip consist of a second, or reservoir balloon, sus- pended under the main balloon for receiving the gas overflowing from expansion at lofty heights, and an ingenious device by which a rope running over @ Windlass Is let down upon the sutface or the waver, relieving the balloon of its welght, with the THE NEW DOMINION.
