NEW YORK. Steambont Collision on the Hudson—The Towe boat Telegraph Sunk by the Drew—Gua Cotton Explosion at Albany—The Wells- Fargo Express Trial. ALPANY, June 23, 1870. The towboat Telegraph and the steamer Drew col- lided last night, and the Telegraph was sunk, The collision took place about one o'clock A. M., four miles below Catskill. Tne lookout of the Drew per- ceived a tow coming down piloted by the towboat Telegraph. Seeing imminent danger of collision, he immediately signalled to the engineer to reverse the engine and endeavored to warn the approaching tow of their danger. The tug kept on its way, regard. less, it+seems, of her repeated warnings, and though the Drew tried to prevent it a collision was inevitable. Jn an instant thereafter she struck the ill-fated Telegraph with her bow, crushing m her side, bursting her boilers, and sinking her ‘almost immediately. ‘Then ensued a scene of confuston— the crew springing overboard and crying for heip, and the canal boats in tow cone loose and drifung hither and thither, crushing and grinding agatust each other, ang doing considerabie damage. The Drew immediately lowered her boats and suc- ceeded in picking up the engineer and three others of the unfortunate crew, who were mostly asleep at the time of the collision, The engineer was badly sealded by the bursting of the boilers before he scarcely knew what had happened. Every atten- tion Was rendered him and the others on board of the Drew, and on the arrival! of the boat at this city the enginecr was taken to the hvspiial for treat- ment. There were ten of the crew In ull on board the tug, the rest of wiom, it Is thougit, were picked ‘up by the canai boats. ‘The Drew sustained no injury beyond that caused by the shock, which caused the crew to tumble out of their berths 1n lively style. The other three were brought =p by the Drew, and took the cars as soon as they landed, and weut back to the scene of the disaster. This morning an explosion occurred in Hyatt's billiard ball manufactory on Beaver street, which blew out a portion of the rear wail of the building and set the house on fire. The explosion was caused by mice nibbling matches lying among a quantity of gun cotton, which was employed in the manufac- ture of billiard balls. The damage to the building 1s about $2,000. The case of John McCartiel against Wells, Fargo +& Co., to compel the trustees to account for trans- ferring the property of the company to the Holiaday Overland Express, came up before the Special Term in this city to-day on a motion by Mr. Monk and Mr. Frothingham, on behalf of the plaintiff, opposed by Mr. Soren for the detendants, to allow the plain- tiff to proceed at once and have a separate trial agains: the defendants.

BALTIMORE, June 28, 1870, The office of the Maryland Fire Insurance Com- pany of Baltimore, corner of Post Office avenue and Second street, a short distance from the Post Office, ‘was robbed about noon to-day of United States bonds and other valuable securities to the amount of $150,000.

Another Hot Day—Mercurial Antiosin the Nine- ties—A Slight Thunder Shower—Sun-. strokes and Other Accidents. The residents of the metropolis were grievously disappointed in their hopes, Evening before yester- day the temperature took a sudden turn, undoubt- edly 1m Consequence of the heavy shower, the thun- der and ligutning, and the mercury 1m the ther- mometer receded quickly to within reasonable bounds, Men breathed freer, women became less energetic and regular in the use of the fan, and all seemed to believe that the period of excessive heat had closed for June and that we were to enjoy a short season of relief from such unusuai scorching hours, But the weather clerk decreed otherwise and disappointed all these fond hopes, for yesterday was again one of those days which will long be re- membered for the excess of heat from which all people had to suffer, As early as nine o'clock in the forenoon the thermometer showed 89 degrees. The column of mercury rose gradually after this, and between thee and four o'clock it indicated NINETY-FOUR DEGREES in the shade of a cool storeroom on Cedar street, Into which the sun's rays never enter. In more ex- posed places it indicated even more, and in Wall street and in lower Broadway ninety-five and ninety- ‘six degree were shown in the thermometrical scale by usually correct instruments—a degree of heat unknown in this city during the month of June for more than thirty years. During the years men- toned below the thermometrical record for the 28th of June gives the following fgures:— 1867. From this it will be seen that for the last eight years, and certainly for near thirty years, yesterday was the hottest 28th of June, and, being so near the close of the month, it is safe already to declare that the June of 1670 was the warmest of many preceding years, even on the average temperature of the whole month, This, at least, is true of New York city; for by telegraphic advices from various parts of the country, and even from the West Indies and Havana, it will be perceivea that New York yesterday was, thermometrically, although not geographically, nearer the equator and the torrid zone than even Florida or Cuba; and that, had a New Yorker peen suddenly transferred by magic power to New Or- leans, Mobile, Key West or Savannah, he would have feli as.if he were removed by several degrees towaras Uhe north pole and the frigid zone from the latitude of Long Istand. This will be seen by the following weather report big Sone various places named: Hastings Point. Halas. SELREE VSS: The city of New York warmer—nay, ‘hotter—than New Orleans and Havana and Key West; and that, too, by from twelve to fourteen degrees. But few would believe it were it not that their own personal experience yesterday did convince them that it was ae only uncoméortadly hot, but almost unendura- ie. FEARS FOR THE HRALTS OF THE CITY. Many were the spprehsasions xXpressed that this burning heat may Lave other and more unpleasant results than mere bodily inconveniencies for tho time at leasts. It was feared that irom the slums and sluices, the filth and of our unswept streets, the decaying piers and undredged “slips,” there may be bred by the decomposing action of the heated atmosphere and the sun’s rays infectious Qs dangerous wo life a8 any migratory epi- demic from tropical Asia. It is precisely at such seasons that zymotic diseases are mostly prevalent, and the mortality records of this city and of all other countries show conclusively that the death rate is highest during the warmest months of the year, even excluding the deaths di- rectly aitributable to the influence of the heat, as sunstrokes, Hence it is that the health authorities should be most active, and should see to have all pre- veutive ordinances and regulations strictly exe- cuted, and cleanliness in streets and alleys, tn pub- lic places, as well as in houses and factories, rigidl enforced. Pestileace may be bred here and anf not be imported, and however salutary and com- mendable the Quarantine laws are, the usual pre- cautions for che preservation of a healthy atmosphere in the city are not less essentiul aud should not be neglected. THERMOMETICAL OBSERVATIONS. The following are the observations made of the thermometer during the day and evening, up to mid- night, at Hudnut’s drug store, in the HERALD Buiid- ing:— 1870, Fs 89 81 ¢ lemperature yesterday. 87, Average temperature for corresponding dat 81% The slight thunder shower between five and six o'clock P, M, did not materially a:fect the state of the atmosphere.

THE OMNIBUSES AND CITY CARS moved but slowly. The poor worn out and over- worked horses suffered much from the heat and had hardly power and energy enough left to keep up a trot, Lot even the usual a trot” of four miles per hour. Along the routes of the city railways men were stationed at various points to water the horses of the cars as they passed and sponge their nostrils and mouths. Still quite a number succumbed, and at these watering stations supernumerary teams of horses were kept in readiness Lo supply the place of any one which might “give out” on the road. On such a day no one feels inclined to do much work. ‘the merchant, the importer, tue professional man and the journalist all ury to do as littie as pos- sibie, But the poor mechanic, especially tiose whose trade compels them to work in the open air and be exposed to the sun, cannot always grant themselves @ holiday. Still many left this city and sought safety by retreating to some shady corner. SUNSTROKES YESTERDAY IN THE CITY.

There was one thing upon which the citizens of Brookiyn generally agreed yesterday, and tuat was that the weather was unusually warin; that the heat Was oppressive; that it was undoubtedly the hottest day of the summer, and too hot to think of doing anything = but keep cool. Cool places were sought for, and people upon the streets moved as if they were in no hurry. Many carried large umbrellas, and nearly all, both indoors and out, were constantly agi- fans. Very little business was done by the storekcois on the cipal streets, as the “idies {bie wo go out shopping. he poor horses eapesialy those compelied to drag the street, cars, appeared to suder severely irom the oppreasive weather, and in many tustances the drivers were compelled on the whip tn order to get them up toa trot, road any, have stationed men at inter- Hare [xe diterent eS to i the poor animal . ‘The thermometer in many places im the shade stood ninety-five and ninety-stx of the men employed on Prospect Park and gther pubis works were compelled to abandon their i i SUNSTROKRS.

It was not con- vemplated to open the hospital tor the reception of patients for some time yet, but the extraordinary vemperature of the weather for the last few days urged the Commissioners to make some kind of provision down town for the cases of sickness that were gure to occur. Consequently the doctors and nurses engaged for the hospital were summoned to attend on Monday, atid temporary arrangements were made by which PROMPT MEDICAL AID for the patients might be availed of. One ward on the first Moor of the building was filled up witn a few beds, which are the only furniture the ward con- tains. A number of work people are now busily en- gaged in making ready the rest of the builaing. The hospital, as is known, 1s under the care of the Com: missioners of Charities and Correction, and Mr. Frear, who 1s in special charge, is constantly in at- tenance overseeing THE PROGRESS OF THE WORK. So far the arrangements are that two doctors shall bein charge, the hospital never to be without the pamnce of either, and an orderly from Bellevue lospital and two other nurses are in attendance. ‘The Commissioners have also placed at the order of the Hospital ambulance wagon No. 3. All cases of sanstroke, prostration irom leat or acctdents which occur on the east or west siae of the city BELOW CANAL STREET are to be treated in this hospital, at least tempo- rarily; serious cases of fractures being sent as soon a8 possibie to Bellevue Hospital. Communication with the hospital 1s effected from any of the down town streets by telegraphic message between the precinct in which the case occurs and the Twenty- sixth (City Hall) precinct, and upon notification from the latter one of the doctors proceeds immediately in the ambutance to the place wherefthe patient les, and then returns with his charge to the Reception Hospital. Tho supplies for the, new institute come from Bellevue on order of the Commissioners of Charities and Correction, who, It is understood, are anxious, a8 soon 88 possible, to make the place in every way fit for patients. Yesterday, up to four o'clock P. M., the principal cases treated were two of sunstroke, two of pros- tratton from the heat, and one of a fractured arm. The names of the sufferers were:—mrs, Mary Smith, sunstroke, recovered; Rosa Brown, sunstroke, re- covered; & boy (name unknown), prostration from the heat, recovered; Jolin Sartoly, sunsiroke, re- covered; John Elrazer, fracture of the arm, sent to Bellevue Hospital. The doctors in charge are K. Y. T. Marsh aud A. L. Vandewater, elther of whom mst be in the building day and night. AQUATIC. Regatta of the Yale Navy—Three Good Races— Fine Sport—Dampened Ruffles if and Ribbons. {New Haven, June 28, 1870, Yesterday the summer regatta of the Yale Navy took place at Lake Saltonstall, the scene of the con- test lat week between the Scientific crews of Yale and Harvard. The interest in college and out was much greater than in the University contest of last week, and the attendance much larger. They had scarcely got themselves settled for sight-seeing, however, whe they were scattered by a thunder storm not down in the programme. Soon the heavens smiled again, with an unclouded sky, and the interest was renewed. The band which nad ac- companied the excursionisté was stationed at the Point and discoursed music. THE FIRST RACE was for single sculls, distance two miles. The prize offered was the Southworth cup, valued at $300, It was offered by Mr. ©. C. 8. Southworth, of prong) field, Mass., and is very beautiful in des! The crews and boats enterea were:—George E. Dodge, jew York, class '70, Lady Alice, colors white hand- kerchiel; Charles W. Gould, New York, ’70, Grace, coiors yellow; Willie H. Lee, Chicago, 170, The Name- less, colors orange; E. T. Queen, Hartford, '71, Nellie, colors magenta; ‘Tf. 5, Peck, New York, ’71, Louise, colors biue. About four o'clock the boats were started a little unevenly. Owen took the lead slightly; Lee closed on him and shot in ahead of Peck, but Owen finally came tn first, well anead, in 14:11}¢. The umpire and sole judge in this race was Rev. Josepn H. Twitchell. Sate promptly for Yalemen the boats were called for THE SECOND RACE, which was for three miles, in sheils, and was, of course, the chief contest of the afternoon and the one on which the pane lnterest centred. The prizes were the Phelps prizes, given by Mr. Phelps, of Hartford. The first prize was seventy-five dol- lars and the Phelps flag, and the second prize twen- ty-five dollars. Four crews were entered, as follows:—University crew colors, blue hand- kerchiefs; _Sctentiflc crew, colors orange; class of '73 crew, colors white, At a quarter beiore five the crews got the word, but as it was not fully understood, they were recalled, and five minutes later got the word again, when they shot off, '73 and the Scientific catching the wa- ter a littie more promptly than the others and taking the lead, The Freshmen and University crews, through bad steering on both sides, fouled soon after starting, which caused the University crew to halt @ little to get steady again, hy which they lost distance. The Scientifics, taking the course pursued by them @ week ago, secured the lead and came in ahead. The Freshmen came second, iversity third and '73 last. The time was as follows:. tifics, 19m. 363¢8.; Freshmen, 20m. 1-103,; University, 20m. 14448.; Sophomore, 20m. 1948. A THIRD RACE Tor double sculls was on the programme, but on ac- count of the train leaving ear! bout half-past five, all parties boarded the train and returned tothe city highly pleased with the afternoon’s experience, | RHODE ISLAND.
