Confidencegwas six lengths behind, but ® long distance in front of License. As the horses swung into the homestretch J. J. Bradley was about @ lepgth in front of the stalii and as they th artic straight work there was very little difference detween them. A most gallant stroggle ensued, which was watched with breathl:ss interest by the crowd until the horses passed under the wire, J. J.

THE BEACON FARK RACES. resting Matcher—Contraband Win- the First and Surpriso of the Second Boson, Sept. 22, 1870. ‘The wind was rather too high for the realization of very great expectations regarding the races at Beacon Park to-day. Roads were dusty and horse cars were crowded, and it is, therefore, no mat ter of surprise that the attendance dwindled down into barren respectability. It hav- Mma been announced during the morning that Harry Harley would not appear on the course, there ‘was avery perceptible lack of interest, which, al- though heightened somewhat by unexpected spurts of speed on the part of other horses, still faited to come up to the highest point. There were two races announced on the programme to-day. The first was for @ purse of $500 and was trotted for by horses that had never beaten 2:50, divided into premiums of $300, $160 and $50.

Considerable hedging was engaged in, Second Heat.—Western ‘Girl was sent off at least two lengths behind, and there was much swearing around the grand stand.

There was an immense concourse of visitors yes. terday on the grounds of the New Jersey State Agri. cultural Secieiy at Waverly vo enjoy the third day of the iwelfth annual exhibition. By three o'clock In the afiernoon the attendance was probably not less than 6,000, that of the preceding day being exactly half that number. The receipts for the two days will foot up about $13,000. The crowd to-day will probably be as large as yesterday, it be- ing expected that President Grant will drop in some time dummg the afternoon.

THE IRON AGE. Amorica at Last Awakening to Iron Necessity— The Latest and Largest Steamer in tho Iron Line. There is at present lying at pler 60 North river @ steamer of the Old Dominion line called the Wyanoke, Which bas just been completed by the Harlan & Hollingsworth Company, ot Wilmington, Del., and 1s the largest iron steamehip yet built in America. Bhe is especially interesting now that the question of American shipbuilding is the subject of general and gloomy discussion. The recuperation of our maritime commerce has een more talked about and’ agitated than any other “matter which has occupied public attention since the close of the re- bellion. But talk alone will not, replace our lost mercantile marine. Practical men who proceed to Work and show us what resources are among us in the way of building vessels for sea and give us such evidence as we have in the Wyanoke do more to encourage the hope that we may yet regain our place upon the ocean and contend with the estab- Mshed monopoly on the Clyde, The Wyanoke is tn length on load line 238 feet, length over all 245 feet, beam forty feet, depth from base line to top of deck beams amidships twenty- three feet six inches. ‘The keel is composed of plates thirty-three inches wide by full one inch thick and not less than eleven feet long. The frames, re- verse bars, central, intercostal and biige keel- sons, the deck beams, hatch combings, deck Stanchions, bulkhcads, mast partners, <&c., are all of iron. The bulkheads are three in number athwartship and watertight. The bulkhead aft of the engine has large doorways cach side of the engine and opposite the coal bunkers, The object of these openings is to use a portion of the space alongside the engines not required for coal for frcight room. The bul warks to the rail are also of iron, which is the frst instance with us of metal entering into the material of that particular portion of @ vessel. The gallows frames are of the best yellow pine. The rudder ts of an improved shape and width and the rudder steck and pintles are go fitted as to work with the leaat possible amount of friction. ‘The side lights are of an improved size and pattern, the main deck is composed of white pine and the cellings and floort are #0 arranged tbat all the plating floors of the ship and all the iron work, frum eel to gunwale, is readily accessible for cleaning aud painting. The spirit tank ts ten feet square, en- closed on all sides, having a large tron doorway with doors to admit general cargo when necessary and to close perfectly tight. There are six metallic hfe- boats, four of 22 feet and two of 18 feet Jong. There is an ample leather hose, for either washing the decks oer yatting out fires, amidships, protected agaii gun and weather. The joiner work all through is of a very superior character. The wood in the nelling of the cabins is of walnut, mahogany and satinwood. ‘The painting 16 of a delicate sea-green and Paris white.

She has one of Richie's patent liquid compasses and one brase bell com- both properly adjusted to counteract and alance the local attraction. Care has been taken to make all the pipes in the plumbing work of the vessel seif-draining. The state rooms, mess rooms, and all rooms requiring tt are lighted with prism lights of large aize. It would be @ tedious task to enumerate ali the features of this superb vessel, Her passenger accommodation is far ahead of that on board the English boats which lewve this port for Europe.

The oflicers’ quarters are on the ‘upper deck and are both been. om el ‘t. Inthe steerage one part 1s devoted to males and the other to females. The building of the Wyanoke was begun last November, She arrived in this last Sunday on her trial trip, and will leave Saturday for Richmond, stop} ‘at City Point and Norfolk. She is the fifth vessel of the fleet now employed by the Old Dominion Company, and attests the du ally expanding and important trade which has sprung up since the war between this city and the Sor ath, Her officers are—Captain, H. A, Bourne; execu- tive officer, Samuel Lawrence; second officer, Wil- liam Barnest; purser, William Caldwell; chief en- gineer. George W. Sloate; steward, James Booth. ‘Of Captain Bourne it is only necessary to say that he formerly commanded the Isaac Bell, of the same line, and has proved himself a gallant and skilful oficer, To Mr. N. L. McCready, president of the company, too much credit cannot be given for the energy he has shown in adding this vessel to the fleet and demonstrating what Can be done among us in the line of iron shipbuilding. The company, at Dela- ware, Messrs. Harlan & Hollingsworth, have done their duty faithfully, and, in spite of tariffs and high priced labor, have demonstrated what American enterprise can effect. In seeing the vessel the repre- sentatives of the press were cordially and eiliciently aided by Captain Hunt, seoretary of the company, who has been identified with it for many years. SHOCKING ACCIDENT IN NEWARK YESTERDAY. Yesterday forenoon, in Newark, N.J.,@ married woman named Wood, residing at No. 284 Bank street, met a horrid death, being fairly burned alive. It seems that while attending to her household duties mm the kitchen ber garments caught fire, and, there being no ove at hand to help the unfortunate woman, she fell exhausted in the yard and died. She was found dead at noon- time by her two daughters, wno hed come from work to partake of the poonaay meal. The body was burned to a crisp.

If those who carp at base ball and claim that it 19 now unpopular could bave been at the Union grounds yesterday they would have had ample rea- son to know that their ideas were erroneous. There ‘were fully six thousand people within the enclosure and from three thousand to five thousand more oc- cupled places outside the fences, on trucks and Wagons inthe adjacent streets, in the windows and ‘on the housetops, within view of the grounds. Thus Atiwill be seen that there were FULLY TEN THOUSAND SPBCTATORS of the game, The occasion was the home and home contest between the Mutuals and Atlantics, and everybody hereabouts with right ideas knew that both clubs would do their best to win. That there are some who do not, or did not, think so may be Judged trom the following, which purports to have been despatched from New York to Chicago:— NEW YORK CHICANERY, Chicago {es match for New Yors. ‘The reason why the New York base ballers did not wish the Chicago {club to visit this city until next week has leaked out, apd shows clearly that while Chicago may play” base ball, New York can play other pames beter, On ‘Thursday the Mutuals and Auantics pk, for the pompicnehip, and the game will be thrown e Mutual thus preventing the Chicago club golmy home with the 41's universally believed were kat they couid Inve done.

GOLD BAR SWIND:ING, Two Spaniards Victimizing st. Louis and Chicago Merchants by the Gold Bar Dodge. ee the St. Louis (Mo.) Democrat, Sept. 19.) About three weeks ago two Spaniards of gentle- manly appearance and address applied to Mr. Ber- nardino Florez, No. 17 South Third street, and after a short conversation informed him that they were strangers in the city and short of money. They had, however, a couple of gola bars worth $1,500, which they brought with them, and although they did not ‘wish to dis) of them, still their obligations mast be met and their banker was far away. Would Mr. Florez, therefore, advance them 1m of money on the pare aud by su doing greatly oblige his country- men Mr, Florez expressed a willingness to do so, pro- vided he was satisfied that the bars were genuine. ‘The strangers, -of course, desired an immediate test, and called fora file. With ita broad notch nearly an inch in depth was cut in one of the bars, and the impecumous pair: requested Mr. Flores to take the flings, which they had preserved, to a jeweller and have them tested. This was done, and they were pronounced a very fine qualii'y of gold. The strangers then presented Mr, Florez with the dust, and begged that from it he would have a ring manu. factui to wear in remembrance of them, He promised to do so, and borrowing $600 on the bars, the gentiemaniy foreigners departed, promising to soon return-and claim their own. ‘This they failed to do, and Mr, Florez yesterday became sorrowlully convinced that he had been swindled, ‘The bars Were nothing but copper, and the dust he had tested was by a simple trick of jugglery substituten in the place of the copper filings. He mado complaint to the detectives, but they could do nothilg for him, although the whereabouts of the swindlers is easily determined, as 3 seen by the following, clipped from the Cincinnati Commerciai, of the 15th: Day before yesterday two Spaniards, possessed of unpronounceable names, which might possibly puss for R, Leitza and Juan Yooe, reached the city, regis- tered at the Galt House, and were assigned to a com- Jortable room. When asked by tne clerk where they were from, they sald. St. Louis, Mississippi. Later dn the day @ despatch reached this oity from Chi- cago, calling for the arvest of these two men and their return to that city. The man who re- celved the message hunted around among the hotels until he found out where they had stopped; and then securing the services of Sergeant Rittweger, of the Hammond street district police, and detective Hazen, caused their arrest yesterday. Yooe was rst captured, and then a message was sent up to Lettza‘s room that a friend desired to see him. When he came down and found three strangers awaiting his appearance, he was suddenly taken ill and wanted to retire for a moment. Finding that he couldn’t be excused, he inquired, in broken English, *‘I give you the gold 1 goy” “Yes,” sald “to Hammond street,” and he Both prisoners were started last night for Chicago.

A Wretched Insult to a Gallant Nation—‘' Who Have We in Authority Here?’—A Victim’s Statement. Frangols Frémin, of 23 Wooster street, who was one of the French passengers taken off, the steam- ship Lafayette on Tuesday, under the warrant ob- tained from United States Commissioner Betts by Johannes Roseing, the Consul General of the North German Conjederation, yesterday made the following statement in French to a HERALD re- porter:— He said he was a landscape gardener, doing busi- ness at College Point, and hearing of the movement Which had been set on foot by his countrymen tn the United States to senda ome @ number of men, he thought he should like to goto France im the same ship and in their company. Acting upon this de- termination he gave up bualness, came to New York, secured @ passage and was instructed to be on board the Lafayette by mine o'clock on Tuesday morning. He had his baggage all with him and on board. Ais passage Was not paid for him, but he was under the care of the Committee of the French Association aud was provided with a passport from tne CONSUL GENERAL in New York; he was not eprolied for the army, but he was going to place himself at the disposition of the present French republican government, because Ra peiloyea he could be of some service to that gov- e He was one of those taken off the Lafayctte, and in consequence of the measures taken by the Consul General of the North German Confederation he was Dow compelied to remain in New York, without em- Plopmedt, without money, as he had parted with f ya me realer part of those of his countrymen who hau bea detained were in an ex- actly corresponding poaltion. ~ He states he went on board at about twelve o'clock in the day, and remained there until half. past tour in the: afternoon, watching his baggage and waiting for the departure of the ship, when, his great surprise, a gentleman, UBKDOW ty lois gt Iriends, came on board and, rushing abou ni Se ee » pre Y 2 O8T FRANTIC MANNER, demanded of the commander to cali over the names of the passengers, and, after selecting @ great num- ber of passengers from among the rest, they laatily called some of the members of the committee who had been instrumental in starting us ee and demanded of them, in the presence ol captain, @ complete list of the men they had provided pa: sages ior, (He vow ascertained that this was Deputy United States Marshal, with his acon) ‘The names of nearly a hundred were now shout out, but no one replied to the call so made. so they all stood fora long ume. At length the Marshal BECAME IMPATIENT, and swore with an awful oath that all on board should disembark immediately, and if we did not coos out quickly he would assist us “par force” to and. A number now came forward and showed their passports, and explaining their ition as certified emigrants by the Consul in New York; but, in reply, the Marshal poliiely :equired them to go on shore, tat they would be attended to, and both he, Frémin and several others were threatened thas, if they did not hurry up and offered any resistance, they would be thrown ont of the’ship. He furiner stated to the reporter that it was evt- dent that himself and his compatriots were ut the preset ume the VICTIMS OF POLITICIANS whose only desire was to favor and flatter the Ger- mau population of New York in order to place them- selves in a more favorable position with them in the coming political elections. This was unfair to pri- vate people such as himself. For his own account ho protests energetically against this ruse de poliit- ciens, aud he trusts that this alfairmay be thor- oughly and impardally investigated, and he main- tats his declaration that he was neither enroiled for the army nor paid lor by any one to do go, and inasmuch as he has not been arrested he can ouly conclude vnat the WHOLE THING I8 ILLEGAL, as wellas being a piece of cruelty perpetrated on himself and friends. He has lost the whole of his baggage and effects, which they were not, he sald, allowed to bey ie from the ship, besides some money, the resuit of economy and prudence, which he had put 1D one of his trunks, “SHE CENSUS.
