The miniavure full-rigged ship Red, White and Blue weighed what might be called her anchor of Ingersoli’s, 1n South street, yesterday morning ‘and proceeded down the bay under fullsail—courses, topsails, topgallant sails, royals, spanker and head sails, A good southerly and westerly breeze was Diowing, but the temperature of the air waa in- tensely hot, When off the Kills, or about one mile to northward of Quarantine, Staten Island, she was sudaenly strack by a squall, and the Liliputian Red, White and Blue staggered, careened, and, after a desperate effort at recovery, was laid upon her beam ends. The moment was, of course, one requiring at presence of mind, and it was assuredly So joke to be tilling rapidiy in a deserted harbor, wiih mo boats at hand. The little cra‘t made water rapidly, her masts were projected the bay and the sails became satar running gear and standing rigging were soppin; wet. It was a painful dilemma, but her captain an crew were equalto the oceasion. The event cre- ated little consternation, and the men forthwith made efforts to right her. finally the doct ‘Qt Quarantine steamed up, and the Red, W. Biue was soon piicod on an even keel. Shey then towed in to Quarantine, where she reinained during th@ afternoon, her crew being engaged in balling her out, arying her sails and ,putung ber again in bmp-shape. Thousands saw her during the day, @nd many visitors weut down to Staten Island to inspect the marine insect. In)this critics] emergency the Red, White and Biue exhibited the most valuable qualities, and miuny craft of her size would have behaved very differentiy, She is the metallic Ifehoat which made the ansage to Kurope in thirtystour: days, duriug tem- Pestuous.and danyerous weather, exciting upon her arrival abroad the curiosity of all Burupe.

Derham’s stationery store, corner of Pine Street, iditng with a shutter, saw, Jar up in the street, amoy- ing ball of aust coming towards him. As helooxed, a Wall, evidently that of a frantic pup in a hurry, four- ished over the flying dirt, and presently a row of shining teeth and gums, ferociously red, smote the ‘astonished optics of the youth. He waited for nomore.

Turniog rapidiy on the tip of his tail when cpposite the Fourth Nutional Bank, the’ braté leaped across ‘the street, There was, however, an obstacle in his way in the person and'goods of Sinith, the veteran razor-strop mam Smith was just explaining, for the one thousandth time that day, in a voice that might be heard at the South ferry, his own private opiuion Of the viitues Of his sirops and cutlery, whea he caught sight of the icmp canine, = It was’ 8 bad 2 out, The brute had his iP; bis mgue protruded, he showed all tne teeth he had, ahd his hair stood on end.

On his oath and razor strops the excited smith swore that he never was in such a predicament since ut Gettysburg he nearly strangied himself with @ piece: of hi tack, Ex- austed tn the effort co catch Smith the mad dog made a futile attempt to swallow a five shilling bunch of. nkunives aad then darted straight for Deriam’s. ‘They were prepared for him there, Harry Higginson threw a ream of paper at him, missed and feil over the counter; Werham threw his new bat in the same direction and had the satisfaction of sce- dng it eaten by the rabid beast, while the youth already mentioned crept upder the counter, and in bis excitement spilled all the spare bottles of ink he could lay hands on over his beat clothes. By this time there were over 30 people in tne street, and heavy bets were made as to whether Derham or the dog Would get the best of it. The fight looked even.
