Nearly all the men slept upon the grass at the Battery that night, having no homes to go tonor money with which to re lodgings. A few were accommodated at the it precinct station house, Yesterday morning the men were each pald ten dollars by the Cuban Junta. Most of this mone; ‘was soon spent in the neighborin: Hance shops, an there was much quarreliing and fighting among the recruits. In one instance an Irishman was stabbed and slightly injured bya Cuban. A squad of peice from the First precinct station house was sent to the pod to disperse the men, which was done. few of them, however, afterwaras returned, and are still loltermg around the Battery, THE DROWNING OF MB. FELLHEIMER.—The case of Mr, Juuus Fellheimer, drowned on Sunday, the 1sth inst., by being thoughtlessly pushed into the river at the bathing establish- ment foot of Sixty-sixth street, East river, by @ young man whose name and residence are unknown, was further investigated senerday ty Coroner Fiynn, at his offiee in the City Hall. ‘0 witnesses were exaiined, but no important infor- mation was elicited, further than the fact that one of the bathing masters made strenuous efforts to rescue Mr, Fellheimer after he had been pushed into the river. Itis believed by many that the man re- sponsible for the lamentable occurrence believed deceasea was one of his own friends at the time of pushing him into the water. At all events no crimi- nal intent 1s alleged against the unknown man for his act, and by mal hia appearance he will incur no risk of losing his liberty. The case was further adjourned tl next Saturday. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. LARCENY OF WINDOW CURTAINS.—Elizabeth Bag- ley, & domestic in the employ olgMrs, M. Norvell, 123 West Twenty-seventh street, Was arraigned before Justice Dodge, at the Jefferson Market Police Court, peeseeay, on @ charge of stealing three pieces of lace window curtains, of the value of $40.

Two of them engagea the attention of Mr. Brown in conversation, while the third spatched $167 in greenbacks from the desk and attempted to ran away with it.

ALLEGED PICKPOCKET.—A man giving his name as William Evans was yesterday arrested on a charge of attempting to pick the pocket of John H. Harrison, on the Bowery.

The same magistrate made a like disposition of John Grant, accused of keeping @ silver watch, worth twenty-five dollars, given him by Mary arr, of 168 Mulberry street, to get repaired. A Goop BUT NoT SUCCESSFUL FoRGERY.—A young man of genteel appearance called yesterday at the jewelry store of A. M. Farrand, No. 25 Maiden lane, made purchases of several articles of diamond jew- elry, amounting to $1,441, gave in payment a check for this amount on the Ocean National Bank, pur- Porting to pe signed by H. B. Burnton, No. 166 Fulton street, arranged to have the jewelry sent him in an hour to the Merchants’ Hotel, in Cortlandt street, and then left. So well done was the forgery that it was pronounced genuine at the bank, and Mr. Burnton alone detected the fact that the signa- ture to the check was not his handwriting; officer McCarty, special detective, just detailed to the Twenty-seventh precinct, on being made acquainted with the facts, succeeded, by a species of sharp finessing, in accomplishing the arrest of the uttercr of the bogus paper, a8 also an alleged accomplice. The prisouers, Who gave their names as James Wat- son and Gilbert auto and claim to be brokers, were taken before Judge Dowling, at the Tombs, and in default of $1,000 bail each committed for exami- mauion. THE METROPOLITAN POLICE, An Italian Outrageously Beaten—Charges Against Officers. At ten o'clock yesterday morning a poorly dressed Italian, named Joseph Martini, who for five years has been in the employ of the Street Contractor as foreman in cleaning the Sixth ward, came to the Central Office steps, upon which Captam John Jourdan was standing. Tne captain at once inquired ‘what was the matter. The man stated that at one o’clock this morning, after completing the cleaning of Leonard street, he walked up to the corner of Eighteenth street ana Fourth avenue and becoming fatigued sat down to await the arrival of a car. ee sitting there @ policeman came up an asked what he was doing there. He told bim he was waiting for @ car, when the officer ordered him away. He remon- strated, and asked the officer for his number, when the patrolman drew his club and inflicted a severe Ddiow 0} his arm, remarking, “That is my num- ber.’? entleman who saw the outrage, gave Mar- tint his address, asja witness, and told him to get the number of the man at the station house. Martini called upon Captain Cameron and found that the officer 1s Alfred L, Battersby, of tue Eighteenth pre cinct. The man took off hig coat and exhibited an arm fearfully discolored and swollen, as proof of his statements, Captain Jourdan, of the Sixth, and Cap- tain Walsh, of the Fourteenth, both of whom know Martini, and vouch for him being a hard working, sober citizen, took bim before Inspector Dilks, and a complaint was taken against the officer. Should the allegation be sustained, Battersby should be instant- ly dismissed the force. On Fridayevening,as James Wilson and Charles and Wiiliam Berry were walking down Greenwich street, Wilson, agg to his own statement, when near the corner of Morris strect, seeing & number of women around the entrance of one of the many dens in that locality, exclaimed to his companion, “What are they doing there, Neth YP’ Whereupon, he aueee, oiticer John L.

TRE PARK YESTERDAY. All the lines of cars leading to the Park were yes: terday crowded with pleasare seekers asearly as two o'clock, There isa regular ‘get’? who periodi- cally go to this delightful retreat—not that there 1s any particular amnity between its members, or any actual organization; but that vast army of nurses, with thetr infants, may be seen at any time on Sat- urday afternoon swarming over the Mall and losing themselves in the tortuous windings of the Ramble. They did not by any means make up the whole of the large crowd that assembled there yesterday to hear the music, though they were tho first on the ground. Afterwards came the spruce little clerk, with a green necktle, paper col- lar and a thousand a year, whose place of employ- ment closes at three’ o'clock. ‘Then young ladies begin to make their appearance, in white, with their neat little bonnets trimmed with @ selection of natu- ral fowers. There is pleaty of room on the Mali, 80 they try to see how the Arabian beud will do a3 the successor of the Grecian, and some exquisite rolls of the eyes were noticeable in the more par- Ucularly stunning portion of the fair visitors. By four o'clock ihe irge crowd moves leisurely up to- ward the music stand, About this gorgeous piece of gingerbread workmanship are the centres of interest when the band plays. Yesterday the arrangements were very fine for the auditors, tents being erected, under which comfortable seats were placed for a radtus of a hundred feet, The scene at this point was very animated. Dodw rtn’s band, covered with white beavers,’discoursed such popular music a3 “SatlorgBoy,” Lancers,” “Ja Veuve Ciic- quot” and gems like the “Walnut Grove Waltz” and “Phe Marriage of Figaro.” The Turk, who has a strong Hibernian accent, stood a iitile,in the dts- tance speaking in carefully measured a nts of the wonders of the unsightly dromedary whose master he has the honor to be, and the gaping crowd took in everything he said, Over on the common towards Highth avenue were scores of bail clubs taxing a turn at the national game; shirtless and snoeiess boys, smali atoms of girls, baby carriages, cemper- ance tracts, and other incongruous persoas and things, could be seen spread over the common; the lake boats did a good business during the day, and the whari was lined with people anxious to bai miniature excursion; the animals were grazing ou the sward in view of the Arsenal, wh budding self, together with the Cave, drives, stat lane and spring waters, came in ior a atlicution, fariem share of MAY RS OFF.CL, ‘The warm weather seems to have had but little effect on the parties who come withfa the pale of Marshal Tooker’s jurisdiction, and the past week, when business at other places hus been so dull, tie Marsbal, with his eMcient assistants, Hart and Hall, have been kept at their posts, attending and iisten- ing to the complaints and grievances of some three or four hundred persons, The Marshal’s bureau has become a terror to evil doers of all kinds. Some in- significant pettifoggers, who have Leretolore siiielded themscives behind their knowleage of the laws, and have carried on their business in accordaace with a system which in other paths of life would be termed swindling, have found their practices cut short by the Marsbal, who, in answer to the complaints of aggrieved parties, has succeeded in bringing thelr nefarious doings to light. There are other forms of swindling which the Marshal cannot e/fectually check for the simple reason that those who become the victims of the swindlers do not, cannot, or wilt not assist the Marshal in prosecuting the scoundrels who prey upon society in general and on unsophis- Ucated countrymen in particular. The chief style of swindle Is that known as THE ENVELOPE GAME. The manner in which this business is conducted has frequently been described, and it 1s a matter of No little surprise that there shouid still be found in this country anypody who is so exceedingly igno- Tant or so stupidiy silly as tO imagine that a New York sharper will give away anything valu- able for a few cents. The thieves who Manage the bogus jewelry shops are generally we most repuisive and sometimes disgusting looking specinens of humanity, Their very appearance, it might be thought, would frighten an honest man away from the localities they haunt, Yet, day alter day, complaints are entered at the Marshal’s desk by intelligent looking men who have been “roped in’? and robbed by these harpies, Among the most notorious of these establishments are those in the basements of 179 and 233 Broadway, several in Cortlandt street, six or seven in West street, two or three in Park row. as many more in Chatham street and a few in South strect. During the past week Marshal Tooker has caused the pro- prietors of several of these places to disgorge. 1. 8. Cantield, of Middletown, N. Y., lost twenty-seven dollars at 111 Chatham street; Peter Elvers, of Ger- many, lost seventy-five dollars at 103 Chatham street; William Kichards was swindied out of a check for $275 at 233 Broadway; William Wolf, of Germany, lost twenty dollars at 233 Broadway; James Ayers, of Orange, N. J., lost twenty dollars at 103 Coat- ham street, In each case, a8 above stated, The Marshal succeeded by the ald of officers Mo- Grath and Young in haviog the losses made good, and the silly fools who had risked their money de- parted happier and wiser men. SECOND HAND DEALERS came in fora lecture from the Marshal, which may have a salutary effect. A few days since two or three young artists appeared at the Marsbal’s dess, and one of them stated that while passing the estab- lishment kept by a dealer in second hand articles in Sixth avenue he saw a magnificent crayon portrait in the window, and he bought it for $5. He sent @ letter concerning his purchase to the artist whose name was inscribed on the picture. The lat- ter recognized it, and stated that it had been stolen, and was valued at $200. Marshal Tooker sent for the dealer, and examined him in regard to the manner in which he had obtained the crayon. The dealer did not Know; he had had it in his possession and on exhibition in the window for three months. The Marshal was satisfied from the good character of the dealer and from the fact that he had had the picture exposed for sale 60 long that he did not Know the picture had been stolen, The artists said that a large pum- ber of valuable photographs, paintings, crayons, &e., hid recently been stolen. The Marshal then read the following gelections from the revisea ordl- nances, aud stated that he intended, as far as with him lay the power, to hold the deaiera to a strict Compliance with the statu BROAION 38, If any goods, article nr thing shall be advertised in any dally newspaper printed in. the city of New York an having been lost or sto'en, and if the aald thing, or an: cle or thing so advert oods, article or ng to the description of the goods, artic or any part or portion thereof, shall then be, or thereafter come Into the possession of any dealer in second hand articles, or keeper of a junk slop, lie ‘or she shail forthwith give information thereof in writin, at the ollice of the Chief of Police, and shall also staic from whom the same was reccived, under the penaity of §250 for every such neglect or olfence. ‘s£0, 89.

Oace in a while some individual who has allowed the kind (?) brokers to exchange his money and place it in his belt for him, on tinding that ne nas been robbed, will return to the city, even from Europe, and apply at the Mayor’s office for advice or redress. ‘Tue establishments at No. 146 Liveriy street, No. 6 Hudgon street and No, 200 West street have come under the Marshal's ban, and duriug ine past week he has obliged the keeper of one of these Places to return $300 and another $650 that they had ab from parties who bad purchased tickets for arope. Among the hundreds of MISCELLANEOUS CASES which have come before the Marshal during the past week were ome harrowing tales by some tnirty- seven washerwomen, who alleged that they had been cheated by Solomon Leichensteiller, who keeps laundry in Kighth street, near Sixth avenue. Marshal Tooker, after listening to their tales, gave them a note to the Justice at the District Court in Sixth avenue, asking him to issue a “pauper sum- mons” and dispose of the case. Some two or three hundred questions were answered and advice given by the Marshal and assistants, while from the lower regions of the office Marshal Daly reports that the LICENSES I88UED during the week were 202 in number, distributed as foliows:—Second hand dealers, 3; junk shops, 2; junk carts, 2; coaches, tage coaches, 83, MARINE TRANSFERS, The following is @ complete list of marine trans- fers at this port from the 20th to the 24th mstant:— J Tonnage.

A trotting match for $500, mile heats, best three in tive, came off yesterday afternoon at the Fashion Course between Florence Secalion’s chestnut mare Louise and Mr. Phillips’ black gelding Little Frank— the former to wagon and the latter in harness. The race was given to Louise after four closely-con- tested heats, but a great many persons who wit- nessed the trot were of opinion that the judges strainea their consciences somewhat in arriving at their decision. The first heat Louise won fairly, but the second and fourth heats were not quite ‘on the square.” She broke up in these heats several times, and gained by each break; and if the judges had adbered strictly to the rules of the course the black gelding might have had a chance of winning the match, After the second heat the udges called the driver of Louise into the stand and told him that they would not again overlook his manner of driving; but when he came in ahead by a neck on the fourtn heat, after having gained by running three times in the heat, two of the judges overruled the opinion of their associate, and de- clared that Louise was entitled to the heat and race, ‘The winner of the race (Louise) 1s well known on the turf, having trotted @ number of races while the property of Dan Mace; but she never made a faster one to.wagon than on this occasion, while in the hands of John Murphy. When Mace or Ben Daniels drove her she was a bad breaker;.but Murphy haudied her go nicely that he could let her jump three or four times and catch her on a trot whenever it was required.

She passed the quarter pole over two lengths ahead in turty-mine seconds, Gog down the back- stretch the black geiding gained on the mare, and was at her side, When she broke up again and gained aiength, She was a length and a half ahead at the hail-mile pole in 1:17. Little Frank closed up to the wheel of Louise, again going into the Flushing end, but another break and the mare had a lengti of daylight between them, She vroke up three times belore she entered the homestretch, where she was two lengths in front. The black trotted steadiiy throughout until past the distance stand, when he jeft bis legs, and tue mare beat him three lengths, in 2:37, The judges then called Murphy into the stand and told him that they would not allow him to run another heat in that manner, and that all he gained by breaking would be deducted at the end of the heat. Third Heat.—There was no bettin, between heats, the backers of Little Frank having fost all hope of his winning the race. He had a little the vest of the send off, but the mare soon took the lead and teat nim two lengths to the quar- ter pole in forty-two seconds, Going down the backstretch Louise cast a shoe and broke up badly. Frank was hall a dozen lengths in front at the half- taile pole in 1:22. Louise acted very uusteadily all the way around the Flushing end, and was nearly a distance behind when the black came on the home- stretch, Louise gained something on the home- siretch, and the driver of the black, notwithstand- ing he strained every nerve, was unable to put her outside the fag. The black won the heat in 2:4334. Fourth Heat.—The poo)-seller now made an effort to sell a few pools, but there was no one willing to invest oa Little Frank, and the auctioneer haa to abandon his business for the nonce. They hada very good start, but Louise broke up soon after the word was given, yet she lost nothing by the Jump or two that she made. She broke up a second time in Fone ee quarter pole, and the black took the ead and passed that point in front, in forty seconds, The black kept the mare at his wheel until near the haif-mile pole, when she broke up and gained half a length, The black passed the pole in 1:22 Gotn; around the Flushing end the mare showed her hea: in front, but as they made the turn into the home- stretch they Were on even terms again, and they came head and head up the stretch, the mare breaking twice on the way, gaining slightly each time. As they passed under the string the mare had about a neck the best of it, and the judges, after some litde consideration, gave her the heat and race.

The other horses then were withdrawn and the race was ended, race Was like the majority of the Bull’s Hiead trots.

Entrance BOR‘E NOTES, SINTI AVENUB TO BE A DIRT ROAD. It will be emely gratifying to gentlemen who enjoy tue recreation of driving on the road, and the public iu general, to learn that the Park Commisston- erg, in the ex se of a sound, discretiouary judg- ment, have mined to place Sixth avenue, from its upper junction with the Park to ite terminus at iariem river, at the disposition of the public a3 a drive for thetr pleasure and conventence, free from dauger and obstructions of every nature. ‘The avenue is now being filled in ana graied as fast asit is possible to do so, in view of the factot the great dificulty in obtaining material for that purpose. When completed it will be one of the most delightral drives on the island, and will entitle Mr. Grecn and his associate commissioners to the thanks of the community. The crossing at the intersection of Seventh cvenue and Harlem lane, which has been go dangerous to vehicles for some time, will be altered at once 80 a8 to make it thoroughly safe in the future, SHORT TRACKS. Among the various devices forgiving horses a reputation for speed is that of trotting them on tracks potorlously short of amile, We stated the other day, bn the authority of the proprietor him- self, that the Suffelk Park track was short of a mile, and cautioned the public not to bet on the time that would be mate by American Girl and Goldsmith Maid in thetr race which was to take place on Wednesday. his announcement appeared to have frustuated the pisns of cel itlomen and seemed to have created quite a cot ation in their camp, for one of their ageats, who really knows nothing more about the matter than what he had beon stoutly denied, in some of the city papers, what we had stated in relation to the Suffolk Pars track, He attempted to land the proprietor of that concern by stating that he was making great efforts to elevate character of his track. In our opinion elevation the track can only be attained by tis extension to fuil mile. TROTTING AT PATRS. We would suggest to managers of fairs throughout the country that where horses trot for preminms on their grounds they should insist On their utmost speed being exhibited. Many of the fastest will no doubtcompete for premiums this fall, unless compelied by the managers of the grot put forth tueir best speed will fall to give sal ton to the public, Who pay to see aod else, Tue large premiums are le up Dd; money pald in at the gates by these people, Who in nine éases out of ten go Away without seeing what Owners of horses of great reputation for speed are mvited to compete for premiums as these fairs. ‘They do compete, and just at a Tate of speed ita themselves, and with no view oa of the public. What we no race should take place qually matched, and that the rate of: "ve much, Mf any, less than they y exhibited in public, In the event of ¢ up to certain requirements Managers as regards speed, then neither horse receive the premium. This would put an end “hippodroming,” which has become so Leap = late years, aaa create a spirit of confidence ae tue vii to fair grounds that they would get the value of tucir money in speed, if nothing else. HORSES ON THE ROAD. Mr. Kilpatrick arives a fine stepping colt, which somewhat resembles the Aubura horse, formeriy owned by Mr. Bonner, Mr. George B.

At alate regular meeting of the Board of Health the Sanitary Superintendent for Brooklyn reported that the order of the Board for the removal of the offal boat from the Brooklyn shore had been disre garded by the contractor, Mr. Van Brant, On Friday, as already recorded in the HERALD, the boat was beached on the shore a the foot of Thirtieth street, intentionally or. otherwise. Considerable correspondence ¢i- eued between whe Sanitary Superintendent, Dr. Harris, and the President of the Board of Police Commissioners, wnen @ hitch o ae to the power of the Mourd of Health and ¢ Commissioners, Owing to this conflict of autl the Board of Health were hurriedly called at @ late hour on Friday night, when it unanin resolved that the Sanitary ta pi tara of Br lyn be instructed to immediately disinfect the boat, and 80 soon a3 she could be ved tO out the original order of the Gowanus have thus had ther their ontv hope is that the will include gome infammabie instantaneous cymbustion and Brant of sa offal boat that the senses of the residents of the Long el
