R PROSPECT PARK PAIR GROUNDS, CLOSE OF THE SPRING MEETING. Fine and Fast Trotting—The Double Team Race Won by the *tallions Honest Allen and Goorge Wilkes, and the 2:40 Purse by Royal John—A Fine Attendance. As all things, pleasant or otherwise, must come to @ close, the true philosophy is to enjoy the pleasant as long as it lasts, This thouglt was evidently up- permost in the minds of the 06,000 ladies and gentlemen who went along the sylvan shades of Long Isiand ay to see the spring Meetig at Prospect Park Fair Grounds disintegrate and dissolve. A lovely day certainly spread its warm, wind-swept wings over the dissolution Which took place in a double-team trot, As far as Weather is coacerned it was the most auspicious day cf the week, and heartily did every one present enjoy it, Toere were more fatr faces on the grand stand on the day before, but not so many at the club house. There were, however, enough charm. ing 6; bright eyes and cherry lips to make the oicest man on the course wish It was spring meet. ing, under such circumstances, for all ume, Around the pool-sellers immense excitement pre- vatied previous to and Guring the 2:31 race. One geatieman of the staple boy persuasion, without ny shirt collar, was bighly wroth at the idea of Lady Wella being the favorite. Ne concluded @ long and vigorous denunciation, in terms moro weighty than genteel, by declaring we pretty brown mare to be “a one-eyed pig.” Tue ‘ination of the animals which had attended the meeting formed the absorbing topic among tnese Jockeyish gentry, One of them declared that a cer- tain biack mare was “goin’ clean up through the hull New Bnglin States and will come back a young horse.” ‘This curious Darwinian proposition, strange as it May seem, Was Assented LO by ail pres ydia Thompsou,’’ said auotier, “will strike a stake some Where in the fail.

The Trotting. ‘The last day of the meeting was made famous by two very interesting trotting contests, the leading event being a race between three of the best teams in the country. These were Colonel Russell’s black team Darkness and Jessie Wales, Mr. William France’s black teatn Monitor and Black Harry and Mr. W. 1. Simmons’ team, composed of sorrel stal- lion Honest Alien apd brown stallion George Wilkes. Honest Allen and George Wilkes were the favorites, selling for more than the other two teams combined, This fact led to considerable discussion among disinterested gentlemen who had Bo money in the pool box before the race began, and as It progressed they seemed still more perplexed, as the Boston team did not perform in the two first heats as they have done on previous occasions, They were beaten by the stallions, the last heat being made in the extraorduiary time of 2:28. Honest Alien and Ge orge Wilkes trotted very kindly together, aud We tink with a little more practice it Will be difficult to make up @ team in the country tuat will be avie to beat them mue he France was very uniortuuate with his team, diarry broke dows in the first 5 quater pole.

At the sixth attempt they were sent olf to a very even start, the stallions hav- ing a little the best of it. Going around the turn they drew away two lengths from Monitor and Black Harry, who led Darkness and Jessie Wales about the ‘same distance. At the quarter pole, Which was passed by Honest Alien and George Wukes in thirty-seven seconds, they led four lengths, Monitor and Black Harry second, two lengtos ahead of Darkness und” Jessie Wales.

JUNE 10, 1871. THE DELUGE IN NEW ORLEANS, A Portion of the City Under Water. Aquatic Movements, Scenes and Incidents. [From the New Orleans Times, June 5. Boating in the streets of the Crescent City having again become fashionable our reporter yesterday made an extended cruise through that portion of the submerged district bearing between the New Canal and Canal Carondelet, and found the entire country trom Ciaiborne street to the lake one wide expanse wat On Common street the flood was visible in the overflowing gutters as far up as Rampart street; but by a judicious selection of the dry places aud a short journey through the miadle of the street the writer succeeded in reaching the corner of Claiborne street, The quay formed there by the railroad track was crowded with Women and children, police oflicers, bedraggled men and vehicles, while narrow atrip of earth was ae with nousehold furniture of every variety and bedding. were constantly arriving With new victims from the overilow, and during @ brief stay nearly a dozen families, many of them without as much as a change of clotulng, came in, The naval display of this flowing river could scarcely be considered as approaching in maguill- cence a review of the home squadron at Chervourg, but for variety of rig aud tonnage the fleet certaluly rivailed any that ever sailed, A preponderance of square barges rather indicated timely precaution on the part of a majority, but dozens more, with their trowsers rolled to their thighs, floated about on planks and the most uanseawortny rafts, Placidly cruising over the troubled waters were mea, boys and girls, and even women whose air of avandon and generous display of personal charms was rather more suggestive of quiet desperation than any less Worldly fecling. Many appeared undecided waether to laugh or cry, aud compromised the matter by snickering ut the mishaps of others, and remain- ing very silent ip contemplation of their own adver- sity. A corpulent gentleman, whose forlorn attempt to propel himsel! (0 a neighboring house on a great unwieldy log culminated in an artistic dive, created great merriment, and it was not until he had swai- Jowed several mouthfuls of brackish water tnat the hilarity ceased and he was fished out. An adventurous Cushite made a short voyage in a bath tuo, but his eiforts at navigauon were some- What frastrated by an immense sugar-cured ham, which, clutched in his right hand, not only pre- vented an active use of the pole, but eventually cap- sized the boat. ‘The entire street was thronged ‘with boats, which were coastantly jostling, and the exhibition of seamanship of by far the greater num- ber would have driven Long Tom Coitin into a frenzy of profanity, OUT COMMON STREET, Securing a tidy litte cypress skiff, our reporter glided out Common stree{, and was soon in the miast ot the busy crowd, Every door on both sides of the thorougniare stood wide open, and the in- mates crowded the windows, all eagerly watching the novel scene. For a square or two, though the yards were footed, the water had not yet reached the floors, and the inhabitants were somewhat pllosop! ‘Tue bouses im the vicinity of the mar- ket are rather higner than those further in rear, and, with even three feet of water on the banquette, many of them escaped inundation, At Johnson street, however, the entrance of water 1ato domi- ciles become apparent, and a grocer, at the time our reporter passed, Was busily engaged in hanging up rescued articles on hooks around the wall. Two squares farther on the flood had reached half way up the legs of tables in the front rooms, and persons employed themselves in piliag up the smaller articles of furniture on the beds. any women secured 4 seat on the window-sills, and, with their legs dangling out, calualy awaited the receding of the waters, At Hotel Dieu the entire garden was submerged and the water mapeare nearly level with the lower verandah. The large stable of the Canal and Clat- borne street raiiroad was under water perhaps eighteen inches, and a large force were busily en- gaged in removing the mules to a place of safety. Tne last car passed over the track at about eleven o'clock in the morning, and it is stated that the pas- sengers (a gentieman, his wife and child) were taken out of the vehicle in a boat. In this vicinity the Noors of houses on both sides of the street were un- der water, aud from Poydras strect to far below Canal was an immense lake. Many of the habita- tions were deserted, and passing near several our Teperter could oniy see stray articles of furniture floating around in the empty rooms, BUGS. Every fence, Pouse, and even the tops of the taller bushes, were completely covered with bugs of all de- scriptions, and several fences were almost black ‘with crickets, Tue passage near them created the wildest con- sternation among those insect castaways, but all huddled closer together, and appeared to cling to the last vestige of eartn with the tenacity of life itself. In one spot were massed perhaps a hundred Qlack spiders of immense size, @ large number of Which carried their vette 3 1m small snowy bags. broad strip of scum which had gathered just oppo- Site the Marine Hos)ital was fairly alive with them, and over the whole face of the country millions of grasshoppers, beetles, caterpillars and smaller in- sets abounded. THE SICK. {The removal of the sick commenced about twelve o'clock Saturday night and continued until perbaps twelve o'clock yesterday. a large num- ber were brought to the Marine Hospital, and others taken to the residences of their friends in more cen- trai localities. One lady we heard of was taken from her bed, aiter having lain there until tue water rose to the depth of two feet on the floor, Though the grounds surrounding it are submerged, the Marine Hospital, being built on brick piliars, is still free from water, The smal! huts in rear of this are chiefly occupied by colored people, and all are ren- dered uninhabitable. On the vovage out the writers attention was aitracted by two horses standing close together and apparently motionless. Drawing nearer, the skiff glued over @ float to which they were anchored, In tnts vicinity three children had taken refuge on @ rickety shed, and sat patiently ‘Wal ing to be picked up Ly the police buat.

From Claiborne street, between the two canals as far as the cye could reach, was one vast lake, cover- ing An ared Of ut least six, square imiles. Returning, the reporter passed through many of the sircets rnnnimg parallel to the river, between Hagan avenue and Claiborne street, and every- where found frigh.eaed Women and culldren seek. fog the inglest places attainable. May Oj (hem had constructed ratts of the Moat- ing bridges, and sea‘ed themselves on chairs in front of their dweilings, Those to ate enough to live in two story houses crowded le upper floors, and not a few cot- lagers sought refuge on the roof. BREAD UPON THE WATERS. Police boats, nearly all of which carried from fifty to one hundred joaves of bread, pited to and fro amoug the sufferers, distributing food. Early ju the morning ovicers were despatcned to the aif- ferent bakeries with directions to purchase all the bread that could be spared, The majority of the bakers had only suiicient to supply thelr custom- ers and ail the workmen were abzent; but by a care- Tui selection perhaps a thousand loaves were se- cured and by three o'clock Uiey were all distributed. Perhaps twenty boats im all were engaged in this lent service aud many fam.lies were not only prevented from famisbing, but removed by them to places of refuge. CANAL STREET Presented all the features of a roaring river, and the destruction of property on this thoroughfare 1s alinost lucalculable. ‘The railroad for several hun- dred yards seems ty have been litted entirely out of osition, and the water for squares was strewn with joating tics, Whe railroad stables seemed to be covered to the depth of at ieast two feet, and it ap- peared probable that weeks would elapse before the track could be placed In running order, SEOOND DISTRICT. Passing through the Second. district to Canal Carondelet, our reporter found that secon covered, with the exception of a thin strip of levee along the canal. A quay had been formed atthe bridge, and At his Visit it was thronged with sightseers. Tne salve distress beheld avove Canal sirees was appa- reut here, Nearly every thoroughtare was fliied with rafts, and any of the houses seemed to be four feet under water. It extenced here as far as Claiborne street, in one sheet to the lake. After a constant journey of over four hours the writer was at length janded at the intersection of Claiborne and bt. Louis streets. THE LOSS, Tt {8 almost impossibie to even form an idea of the daniage which will result rrom tus unparalleled disasier. Every street bridge within the area has, of course, been floated away, and it ts diMcult to say Whether even the planking will be recoverea. Gardens teeming with ve; on have been changed to barren wastes, ‘There 18 scarcely @ house that Will not require repairs, and certainly not an article of farniture. ‘The damage to the railroad must. be enormous, Singularly enough that portion of the second district below Canal Carondelet escaped without injary, and the water did not cross Bayou St. John to the car stables. Just opposite the bridge, at the Old Basin, while On one side the bridge was entirely submerged, the other was perfectly dry, THR SUFPRRERS, Many of the sufferers, and in fact a lare majority, aredp the kuuvler Walks of iy, They barely mau- to make the ends meet under tne most auspt- ous circumstances, but tn the present dre extrem- ity how they will get along heaven only knows. ir weeks past there have been appeals to the nerosity of the community for almost every cause, jousands of dollars, we had almost said hundreds of thousands, have been freely given. Would tt not be charitable, not to say just, 1m the present crisis to share with those who so greatly need it the lib- eral fund already collected until other appeals can be made to the public?

It was reasonably dry, and with the assistance of some Ciatborne street cars left to the public, a cool-and agreeable place from which to take a look at the overflow. THE COURTS.

The libellant tes- tided that on the 15th of February he found the Fashion floating down the North river, with the ebb tide, among the broken ice, about 300 feet from the shore, entirely abandoned and derelict, and in dan- ger of being destroyed and of injuring other vessels atanchor in the river, and that by great exertion and at considerable personal risk, by meaus of a lank which he placed over the floating flakes of we from time to time, he succeeded in reaching and boarding her, and bringing ner in safety to the dock at the foot of Thirteenth street, in this city, and im- mediately advertised for the owner; that she was worth about $300, and that his salvage services were worth at least one-third of the value of the vesscl. Mr. Churchill, the owner, testified that she broke away irom her dock et Manhattanville, was not worth over $100, aud that the ibellant ofered to accept twenty-five dollars for his services if he did not succeed in selling her, at his request, which he failed to do, and that he afterwards refused to accept less than $100 for his services, As the testimony ‘was very conflicting as to the value of the vessel and the amount the livellant claimed for his services, and as it was uncertain whether or not the owner paid the amount of his tender into court, his Honor took the papers and reserved his decision. Mr. Langtree appeared for the libellant, and Beebe, Donohue & Cooke for the claimant, Was He Pilet with a Lien a Captain With- out One? John Purcell et al. vs. Fhe Steamship D. 8. Stet- son, Her Engine, &c.—This was a suit for seamen's wages. The libellant Moore testified that he was employed as pilot at the rate of fitty dollars a month and five per cent of the earnings of the veasel, and that the other libellants were hired as crew, at dif- ferent rates of wages, and that there was a balance of over three months’ wages due to him, which the owner refused to pay, for the recovery of which he ‘libelled the vessel. Mr. Cunningham, the owner, testified that, with the consent of Mr. Wilcox, the hbellant’s proctor, he settled with and patd all of the lvellants, except Moore, whom he claimed he hired &8 master, and not as pilot at the rate of ten per cent of the ‘gross earnings, in lteu of all other compensation; that Moore acted as master, collected nearly all the earnings and retainea more than sufficient to pay his full share of the earnings of the vessel up to the time she was sold. Quite a number of witnesses were examined as to the position occu- vied by Moore, and Mr. Langtree claimed that ac- cording to the weight of evidence the libellant Moore ‘was empioyed and ucted as captain, and as such had no len on the vessel, according to the general admiralty law and the decision of the Jate Judge Betts in the case of Shephard vs. Tae Lighter Enter- prise. The same proctors appeared in tus case, and the Judge reserved nis decision. UNITED STATES COMMISSIONERS’ COURT. Alieged Whiskey Fraud. Before Commissioner Shields.
