Jn the absence of any positive Information tn re- gard to the amount of damage to the caisson for the East river bridge by the fire which eccurred in it on Friday morning, considerable guessing was done. Had the fire been 4m a building where the buried portion was visible, the positive loss could easily have been estimated, Dus, as it was at the bottom of tue ast river, it 18 not surprising that the figures were vot strictly cor- rect, Itiseyen impossible, at the present time, for those In charge of the work to say what is the BXACT AMOUNT OF THE LOSS. fhe caisson is still Giied with water to the top, anc will remam so until to-morrow. Fire Marshal Keady proceeded to the office of the company yesterday for the purpose of making an OFFICIAL INVESTIGATION as to the origin and extent of the fire, and took the following testimony: ‘TES MIMONY OF C, Os MARTIN, 1am assistant engineer on the ‘ast River Bridge works; a fire took piace in the caisson on December 1, at ubout mine A, M.; the general foreman in charge of the works at the time was M.

Between the hours of twelve and one o'clock yes- terday a dozen or {ifteen pugilisuc sporis met at the ripper ofice, a8 per agreement, to settle on the pre- lminartes for the coming battle for the champion- ship of America, Joe Coburn, accompanied by bis friends, Frank Mclntyre, Johuny Grindle, the pe- destrian, and Bob Foster came early, aud Pooley Mace, with Jem Cusick, appeared for Jem Mace, the latter not being present. In the language of the small sporting papers there was a good deal of “CHIN MUSIC” and very little real business done for some moments at the meeting. A day was finally mamed for the fignt, which will be during the first week in April, aud Pooley Mace deposited $400 jor his principal, while Bob Foster, who isa partner of Hen McDer- mott, deposited $490 for Coburn, These sums, in addition to $100 lor each sie, deposited at the drst meeting, makes the stake pow in the hands or Frank Queen $1,000, or $500 for each side, There was a very jong discussion as to the piace where the “WHATS IN A NAME?” An Extraordinary Abandon- ment Case. Scene at the Yorkville Police Court Bo:ween a Discarded Wifo and an Unfaithfal Hus- band—He Denies Any Acquaintance Whatever With Her. A poor, miserably dressed woman of about thirty years of age or over on Friday afternoon came to Justice Bixby, at the Yorkville Police Court, and to him related a stery of grief and sorrow, brought on her by an unfai‘kiul husband, which might affect any person but those accustomed to such harrowmg tales to tears. She said she had been married about eight years ago to one George W. Carpentar, in the Willett street Methodist Eptscopal churgh of this city, by the Key. M. J. E. Searls, She lived with her hus- band for near'y three years and became the mother of two chiidren, botn of whom were then in court with her, Her husband then left her and went to live with a woman named Hannah Reuben, with whom both were well acquainted before thetr marriage. For @ while after this, Mrs, Car- pentar continued, she lost track of the two; but finally discovered them living as man and wife. Mrs. Carpentar then caused the arrest of her hus- band, and he was arraigned at the Essex Market Police Court, where he was, however, discharged on 2 promise to go back to his wife and children— to de by them in the future as a husband and father should, Instead of keeping his promise he, bow- ever, no svoner got his liberty than he “'SKEDADDLED,”? leaving his poor wife to take care of herself and the two children as best she could, From that day unol last Friday she never saw her husbaad, and then she was astonished at finding hi:za a conductor of car No, 48 of the Third avenue line. This was the poor woman’s story, and as she cone.uded, with tears in ner eyes, she asked the Court to extend to her Its protection by arresting her faithless hus- band, and compel him, by the power of the law, to ive her and her children that assistance which she ad every right to exp A warrant was or course immediately granted, and yesterday afternoon Car- pentar was taken off his car and arraigned face to Tace with his wife before the Justice. Bus here comes THE MOST EXTRAORDINARY PART of the case. On the charge being read to the prisoner he seemed for a moment got to understand What it all meant, but the case being more clearly explained and the circumstances tully related to him his astonishment as something surprizing, fight should come of, but no agreement on this very imporcant point could be reached. Joe Coburp stated verbally, and through Foster and Mclntyre, that ne was willing to fight in the State of Virginia or Maryland, and that if those States did not suit he was willing to go te Canada to fight, as those places were convenient for New Yorkers, Pooley Mace wanted to have the tight take place anywhere in Loutstana or near the city of New Orleans, but did net wisk to have his principal go to Canada or Baitimore. Coburn declared that he did not care where the fight too place, but tat he was averse to any railroad d stances, and believed that but very few New Yorkers wouid like to go 60 far as Loulsiana. The HERALD reporter then imterviewed Mr. Uo- burn with a3 much empressement asf he were the Herr Graf Von Kismarek as follows:— “You are looking quite well, Joe?” “Well,” said Joe, ‘1 feel AS WELL 48 EVER J dad in my life.” “What do you think you will Sight at, Mr. Co- burn’? “| ought to fight at one hundred and sixty pounds or mot much either way,’’ said Joe, ‘aud then he added:— “Lihink Mace ’il fight at one humdred and sixty.

Railway Monarchs in Secret SessionAni- mated Debates—Several Discordant Voices Are Ultimately Tuncd into Harmony—An Arrangement Arrived at. Pursuant to the last adjournment the Railroad Convention resumed its deltberations yesterday at the St, Nicholas Hotel, at which all the members were present. ‘The proceedings were conducted in private, but a HERALD reporter gleaned the foliow- ing perticulars:— The controversies have not yet reached a final sult, but it is now believed as certain that the object sought by the Convention—viz., the eqwllization of rates—will be attained. Several gentlemen re- presenting the railway interests of Chicago and St. Lou entered ito an animated discussion cencerning the arrangements pro- posed by the other — represcuiatives, but on the whole the meeting was harmonious, The laiter claun that these rval cities want to monopolize the trafic of the country by means of their railways and make AN INKOAD ON THE RATES, whereby the whole system of charges is disarranged ani very dispreportionate. Certain statements of the tonnage of wie trunk lines of the past year were necessary to perfect the details of the arrangements, Sub-committees were appoint ed to obtain the requisite infermation on that point and also the gross smount reveived for tratiic from competing points.

A Well Known Professional Bruiser Beaten by av Amateur. _[From the Pittsburg Mall, Nov. 30.) Sportiug circles were much excited this morning over an affair that occurred last evening at the South Side, which resulted in a severe whipping being given to Charies Gallagher, the prize fighter. Aday or two since eur police items reported the arrest of Jokuuy Newell and # man named Smith for induiging im a fight on Fifth avenue, im which encounter Smith coun- tered too often for Newell, The remembrance of defeat rankied In Newell’s breast, and a scheme was arranged whereby Smith was to be enticed into afight with Gallagher, and the victor tn TWo en- counters with Tom Allen was to make short work with the pugnacious amateur. Accordingly last night there was an accidental MEESING OF THE PARTIES on Fourth avenue, The covey consisted of Galla- gher, Newell, Tom Hughes and a gentleman well known In boating circies, Smith soon came along, ane was dared to go to the South Side and tighta combat “ la prize ring. Wishing to have the matter settled our amateur consented; but when the spot selected was reached ne was informed that it was Gallagher whom he was to fight, and the informa- fron was enforced by skirmishing demonstrations by that worthy, THE FIGHT Concluding that the easiest way out of the scrape would be to Sgt it out, and perlaps not much fear- ing the renowned ring warrior, amateur stripped and advanced to the front to meet the champion. A STEAMER BURVED. Less of Fifteen Livés—Survivors Saved—Pare ticulars of the Disnster. {From the Mobile Tribune, Nov. 25.) The pain ul intelligence reached the city this morning that the steamer Arlington, engaged tn the Highicrage business, and owned by Mr. J. M. Hol- Unwswort and Captain James Alexander, was en- urely destroyed by tre, just below the stake in the bay, about midnight last wght. There were known to be about twenty souls on board, and it 19 feared that all, except James Thompson, stevedore, who was picked up by the New Orieans steamer Mary, and five others (names uot Known) who were picked up by the #toam lighter Effort, are either burned or drowned. ‘hose picked up by the Effort have not yet reached tye city. Captain Thompson and Mr. J. U. Babcock, both well-known stevedures here, were the only pas- seigers On board the Arlington, and irom all the inteiligence we have beem able to ontain little hope 25 entertained for Mr. Babcock’s safety. The Arling- fon’s crew consisted of the following:—Captain Wil- ita G.

Amateur received one blow only in the autray. i. ae THE DOUBTS ABOUT DOUGHTY CLEARED. An mvestigation took place before Coroner Rel- lins at the City Hall yesterday afternoon in the case of Patrick Doughty, who died in the Charity Hospi- tal, Blackwell's Island, on the 15th of October last, from injuries recetved in some manner unknown. Barly on the morning of the 1th of October de- eased was discovered in Thirty-xixth street, near Seventh avenue, acting very strangely, and making considerable noise, which led to the inference that he had been drinking to excess. Doughty had BLOOD ON HIS HEAD; but, aside from that, there were no external marks of violence apparent, and it did Lot appear till after hifacath In the hospital, whither he was taken, that he had fracture of the skull. The witnesses examined were those Who saw the deceased on the morning in question, bué knew noting whatever as to how be had been injured. It is likely, however, Doughty felkon the sidewalk and fraciured nis and if assumed, a8 Mrs. Carpentar claimed it was, bis place should be on the histrionic stage instead of a Third avenue car. By the MOST SOLEMN ASSKVERATIONS, ke endeavored to make the court believe that he had never in his life seen this woman now before him, who claimed such Close relationship as his wife. Seven years ago, he stated, he had been mar- ried to an estimable young lady of this city, Be- sides, his name was not George W., but Jehnathan H. Carpentar, and he was ready to swear, and also prove by competent witnesses, that he was not the person to whom Mrs. Carpentar, now in court, claimed go near a relationship. Justice Bixby was astounded, as well he might be, and everybody in court pricked up their ears to hear more avout the case. it had already assumed a really interesting phase, and so every one wanted to hear as much about it as he coutd. Mrs, Carpentar was determined, however, on establishing her claim upon Jonathan, who stood lacing her with open mouth and A REAL LOOK OF AMAZEMENT on his countenance waich was not altogether de- void of fear, She whispered to the magistrate, who iustantly after cailed up another unfortunate look- ing creature, who proved to be Mrs. Carpentar’s sister, By this witness the latter proved beyond & doubt to those present that Carpeutar was really George and not Jonathan. But he still maintained that he was ngt the persen represented and asked an examination, which was granted, and in default of bull Le was sent down statrs for the ime being, THE QUESTION OF VEGETABLES. More Garden Land Wanted Near the City. New YORK, Novy. 29, 1870. To THE Epiror OF THE HERALD: ‘The attention of many people has been attracted by the facts im an article in Saturday’s HERALD, headed “Onrious Phase in Vegeiable Commerce,” showing that fresh vegetavles can be imported frem England and sold at cheaper rates than our own garden truck raised in this vicinity can be bought in the New York market rhe writer assigns as a reason a system of speculating or fore- stalling by middlemen, This may in part be true; but is 1t net tue also that we do not raise yegeta- bles enough for the demand? Thousands of acres of land, it must be remembered, which twenty Years ago was used for the cultivation of vegetables in itis immediate vicinity, are now appropriated to buildings, private residences and the pieasure grounds ef wealthy citizens, ‘Ihe consequence fol- Jows that fresh vegetables are scarce and bring an horbltant price, While a large portion of the veg- elables in market are transported a distance of filty mules or more, and pass turough the hands of many hucksters—~each having lus protit, of course—before ach the consumer. s the remedy for this? Clearly it is to ud—land suitable jor raising bies—in wie immediate vicinity of the metropoits, This can be easily done by reclauaing the margh lands on Staten Island ana Long Island, which weuld probably give us, within a short time, a mil- lion cultivable acres fit lor growing vegetables. Wonld do much more than this, it would remove a nuisance trom our doers wolch breeds malarious dise of ali kind and ague to begin With—and, as a terrible afliction existing iu the neighborhood of all the swamp lamds around the make more city, we need not go beyoud that scourge. Drain the marshes, and We will hear ne more complaints of fever and agne; besides, we will have room to cultivate ali the vegetables we require, and pastur cows enough to drive swill milk out of the market altogether. Look at what has been done over the way in Jersey by draining and diklng the marsh lands. A tract of 5,000 acres on the Jersey meadows, upon Which a fly could mardly walk two years ago, over which tue lide flowed twice im every twenty- jour hours, Bas a1 verted into geod farm land. Thousands of bushels of cora, | understand, were raised there last season; market gardeners: have setiled down there; experimental crops of tobacco, flax and hemp were raised on these alluvial lands with much success, and many hundred head of cat- tle found fattening feed there previous to being sent to the abattoirs of New York. 1b ts said the com- pany who had the pluck to do thts has made a large fortune irom it. So imuch the better tor them. Why cannot the same thing be done with the swamp iands 6n Staten Island, bordering the *Kills’—marshes, whien literally cut off the in- hablited portien of the north side oi the island from its natural water front for many miles, and from easier connection with the city? Ido not know how many acres of salt meadow are reciaimabie in that locality, but it is evident that if this large area of waste land and the marslies on Long Island wer made productive we need not compinin of a want al fresh vegetables at moderate prices; nor nee@ we fear the rivalry of English gardeners whoship ther products here by steamer. The great want of the metropolis is room te spread itself. For this we must joek to the suburbs; and we must avati our- selves of every vacant spot which may be convertl- ble to useful purposes. This is just where the sub- ject rises above the mere question ef vegetabies. I hope, Mr, Editor, that these thoughts which eccur to mn¢, arising from whe very suggestive article in the HERALD, may strike some of our large capltausts and Induce them to act in the direction here indl- A BEMARKABLE STORY, A Prisoner in His Own House—More thau Two Years’ Confinement. {From the New Orleans Republican, Noy. 26.] The following 18 the outline of a history, as nar- Fated to us, the trath or falsity of which ls alike un Known to us:-*Last evening, just before dark, a bund man was led into the Third precinct police statlon house, inquiring for Captain Rey. He was at first treated as a beggar, or some one seeking ald, not- withstanding the fact that his personal appearance indicated bin to be of the better class, Captain Rey appeared, when the stranger stated that nis name is Eslava, seventy-one years old, blind since 1866; that he lives on Blenville street, between Johnson and Pricur, whgre he bas been kept in close confinement toy tw years and @ half by nis family, in @ reom elgnt feet by ten, on the excuse that he is insane. As some of the persons present thought that it was possible that he was insane they questioned jim in Freach, English and Spanish concerning his former business and ac- quaintanzes. His responses were distinct, even. vivid—his memory not being at fault concerain circumstances and persons. He even remembe! some of the gentiemen who were conversing with him, espectally Mr. Blasco, an old ana well knowD resident. To that gentlemen he repeated the story of his wrongs, saying that he had beep impris- oned because he Would not make a will in fevor of certain of his relatives, for it appears that he owns considerable property in Mobile and elsewhere. He has been married twice, having children by both wives, and two of his sons are new residing in Mobile, It is the children of his sevond wife who live in Bienvilie street, and the wife yes- terday left for Alabama on the Chattanooga Rall- road, This absence gave him an opportunity to escape, he says. We were also informed that seve- ral attempts have been made by Dr. Anfoux and others to éffect his escape, but their advances have invariably been fotled through the machinations of Interested parties. One of his daughters having as- certa.ned his whereabouts, followed him to the sta- lion house, where she begged him to return home wiih her She was repulsed by him aad chided for past conduct: he utterly refusefi to accom) her, al- though she pleaded with weeping eyes. The scene ig represented as having been very affecting indeed, and moved those whe witnessed itto teare. She, however, disciaimed having been instrumental in ni yey aeration, bu4 did not deny @ full knowledge of the fact. Several of those who saw Mr. Eslava last evening remeuibered Dim well, a8 Wey had once had business transacuons with Lim, so that his identity was well assed. Having made these revelations, and become quite exhausted from excitement, the old gentleman most wilingly accompanied Mr. Blasco, who will take proper care of him for the present, * NOBODY TO BLAME.
