A “SRILLIANT EXCURSION. CTING THE GOVERNMENT WORKS, The Secretary of War and General Sherman on the Tour. 4 Gathering of Generals at Hell Gate—Inspect- ing and Describing the Work—A Visit and Torpedo Experiments at Willett’s Point—Review of the Troops, In wecordance with arrangements, made by / General A. A. Humpnreys, Engineer in Uniet of the! “United States Army, an inspection of ‘the Torts and qovernment works In the victmity of New York was ‘commenced yesterday morning. The General, not wishing to make the tour an ordinary, doll survey, ‘determined to inaugurate a kind of excursion, 80 a8 ‘to commence the work as pleasantly as possible, by Raving anumber of us friends -witn him, and ac- ‘cordingly after his arrival im this cityen Friday morning from Washington, accompanied by te Secretary of War, ‘General Belknap and Geleral “Sherman, he chartered the steamboat Henry Smiva “for use on the river, &c. The programme for yesterday was that the party ‘should first vist the gigantic work undertaken by “General Newton at Hell Gate, and ‘thence proceed to Willetts Point, witness the manner in which tre torpedoes are manufactured, and atterward experi- menis vy the General in charge of the battalion of “engineers at Mat piace, the blewing up of various torpedoes and a review of the garrison by General “Sherman. The hour appointed for sterting was ten o'clock, from the foot of Twenty-th'ird street, Kast River, ‘Accordingly at about ten o'clock the steamboat, ~eovered with flags and having on board the band Delonging to the First artillery, from Fort Hamilton, moored alongside the wharf, amt eimost immediately afterward the company ‘egan to embark. The first to arrive ‘were Secretary Belknap, General Sherman and ~General Humphreys, the bana playing ‘Hall to the Chief” as they stepped on board. Immediateiy fol- Jowing were General irvin McDowell, General Thomas G. Pitcher, General H. G. Wright, General G. W. Cullum, General Z. B. Tower, General Rufas Ingalls, General W. H. Barry, General Foster, Gen- -eral Wallen, General Newton, Major Howell and Adeutenant Adams, from New Orleans; General ‘Swift, Major King and others. At fifteen minutes “past ten tae moorings were thrown off, and the boat Proeceded ap the East River at a rapid pace, while the Generals and their friends chatted freely, ‘and the strains of martial mustc sounded opon the “lear, balmy alr, seeming to be re-echoed again trom the two opposite shores, A plea- ‘ant rum of about half an nour—doring which time General Sherman and Secretary Belknap Giscussed the pleasant state of affairs in the City Hall, of the vouchers and the generai political revo- lotion in New York—brought the boat to the landing Stage at Haliett’s Point, or, in other words, at HELL GATE WORKS. ‘Here the gentlemen of the survey and their friends @isembarked and began a march over tar-covered paths, thousands of tons of broken, heavy masses of fOck and quartz, and across along, shaky platform stretched over an unbealthy and ngiy-looking #wamp or marsh, en route for the scene of one of the greatest undertakings of the present age. Crossing over immeuse embankments of stone and various lines of railroad on waich the rock is brongnt from under the river, the visitors found themselves at the mouth of the pit from which the ~eavation of the three acres of fiimt commenced. chey were met by the working AY dag ar poe orn It seemed as verte they had been “a poll ito a large manufac- Natriet buildings of iron and wood ‘Whole discance from the direct Path at the ue of the dam. Here the chief engineer and .s Irtends visited machine shops, filled with active mechanics; carpenters’ shops, stone masons’ rooms, rooms for ath th the (imal clothing, rooms and every kind of department necessii im the execution of such an interesting and im- portant work. The first thing that meets the eye efter leaving the various workshops is ‘AN IMMENSE PIT OR SHAFT -thirty-two feet deep, about eight feet long and fifty Jeet wide. Over this hangs an immense derrick about sixty feet Pome Bernier S ail the apparatus and cars attachea bares one the stone and for taking the workmen and from their la- bor. From this pit the work of excavating a mass of rock extending three hundred feet out into the river in the form of a semicircle, and eight hundred teet at the extremes, had ‘to be com- mencea. As most of the readers of the HERALD are aware, this immense work was undertaken for the purpose of giving @ depth of twenty-five feet of ‘water across from Hallett’s Point to the island oppo- site, aud thus secure at once a safe, short and im- portant entrance to tne port of New York for vessels of large size, whereas, up to the present tme, by ‘his route only smaller cratt can navigate. THREE ACRES OF SOLID ROCK had to be removed before this could be accom- lished. The work was pianned and commenced briencral Newton, of the United States Corps of neers. iS plan, a8 he yesterday explained, is this:— Aiter sinking the shaft at the water's edge, already described, he marked out ten immense alleyways or cuttings at equal distances of about fifteen feet, la i & commencement upon all aides of this pit. ‘ne illustration given, to show this more clearly, was to suppose a person down a well and commencing to cut apertures trom every side ana making subterranean passages. THESE TEN PASSAGES ARE NAMED as follows:—No. 1, Farragut Heading; No. 2, Madi- son; Leet Humphreys; No. 4, Hoffman; No. 5, 6, Jefferson; No. 7, Grant; No. 8, Me: Gleitans Hany Wo. % fraukuln, and Na’ 10rdackson: ‘euch these “headings,’’ commencing from the level of Snes two feet below the bed of the river, extends ‘upwards about eighteen feet, leaving an immense Tuo! of rock to be supportea by tue pillars formed by the excavation. Some of the eeaghin have Deen bored thirty feet, some fifty feet, myth the #reatest distance bored under the river has been attained in the Grant heading, which last night penetrated forward 140 feet. he first thing to be done aiter a cursory glance of the surroundings Trom the top was to descend to the bottom. Gene- ral Sherman, General Newton, Secretary Belknap and General McDowell first stepped into the car, and in an instant they were high up in the air—not up 1D @ balloon—the next instant they were lowered with the rapidity of lightning to the bottom, a journey that seemed LIKB A DESCENT INTO THE LOWER REGIONS, 8 seen from the surface. In like manner nearly the ‘whole of the party descended into that uncomforta- die looking hole. lt could now be seen that the ‘Water was trickling through the Ca of the alleys, and that before a promenade could be undertaken underneath waterproofs of good quality would be an absolute necessity. These were soon furnished to those who desired them. It was curious to see the Secretary of War enveloped in an India-rubber suit and @ “‘sou’wester,” and General Sherman dodging the water as it fell most uncomfortably fast on his head and shoulders, General Newton led the ‘Way, and In afew seconds the whole of the gentiemen ‘were engaged in viewing, ee long, dark passages ent in the flinty rock. e pian adopted by the aniners is to first excavate ete ng passage out un- der the river and then again cut across them at distances of only @ few feet apart, so that the in- stant you enter you can see the entire width of the ‘work from these croas sections. This leaves huge pillars of about fifteen feet by twenty-five feet to sup- port the roof avove. It was a curious and interest- ing Spectacle to witness the miners working in every conceivable position, on their knees, backs, eides or feet in these pi es with only the flickering gilmmer of a candle to hght ep up the more opening, while the con~- plant ‘drip, drip” ana “splah, splash” of the water seemed to keep time to the strokes of 4he pickaxes and boring rods. In eacn of these png @ line of rails is laid down, on which the cars run in and out with the excavated stone on to a turn-table im the centre of the pit at the opening, from whence they are luted to the surlace and vice versa. THE WORKING OF THE GRANT HEADING fs being vigorously pushed forward, and, despite he great diMeulty of voring the quartz rock, the: sre proceeding at a rapid rate, the entire wor sng forwara at about fifteen feet a month. it ‘Would take more space than can be here devoted to at to describe tn detail ali the interesting points of this marvellous work, In order to prosecute the ‘Matter with greater alacrity a number of air compressing machines fave been purchased ‘g@nd erecied on the surface of the pit. These will be coepected with each of the ten passages by means bid pipes, at the end of which a machine will be at- re to work @ drili by means of the compressed conveyed througn the pipes. ‘This arrangement wee adopted at the Mont Cenis tunnel.

J, Twining, Captain a. McK Cap- tain W. C. Raymond, ‘colonel S.N. Mansfeld’ Lieu- tenants Huer, Davis, Post, Hinman, Marshall, Wil- rg and Dr. Byrnes, who is 1s attached to tne ste- lon. GENERAL SHERMAN AND THE SECRETARY OF WAR greeted these officers, and th: whole company starteu for the interior, At about a hundred yards from whe pier three companies of the battalion were drawn up in line and received the visitors with presented arms, and as General Sherman passed along the lines he saiuted the soldiers in that veneer fal and soldicrike manner 80 uliar to him, General Abbott said he pro} to show snem ere various experiments at the mani bap etn ned were made lor the narbor defences before proceed He then led the way to one of the laboratories on the post. Here the whole party gathered around him while he explained first the composition of the most explosive materials, such as ‘‘duatine,’? “Cali- forntan powder, and the ordinary mortar powder. He next described to General Sherman the manner in which he constructea the torpedoes, which was to make a box of wood two inches wick and dove- tailed in at the corners—of various sizes, according tothe size of the cartridges used—and then the manner ir watch he placed the electric wires in the interior, wit ting fuses at varions parts, 60 that the whole éhould Se ignited at the same in- stant. Foilowsng this AN ELECTRIC BATTERY WAS PRODUCE: and he commenced by igniting small quanuties of the compositions. He first ignited a piece of gun cotton lying loose on a piece of board, which simply flared up like a piece rg paper, but when he applied @ detonating fuse to @ similar quantity it dis- cbarged as heavily a8 @ cannon. He next tried “dualine” m the same manner, and this made the generals stand back; for of ail matter for infernal machines this composition would be the worst and moa destructive. Gomerz’s fuse was tried and t excitement when it ignited two heaps Snow powder ataconsiderable distance from cach other at the same ee me being concluded, This of the General Abbott arranged that Secretary Kelknap, Generais sherman,” ‘Humphreys and McDowell should enter his barge and the remainder of the visitors should return to the steamer for the pur- pose of witnessing THE TORPEDO EXPERIMENTS he was about to make between Fort Schuyler and Willetts Point. This was carried out, ana the Gen- eral and part of his staff proceeded out on the bay with the materials necessary for carrying out the project. TORPEDO NO. 1, which was made up of 100 pounds of powder, was Sunk in thirty-three Jeet of water and attachea to General abvott’s barge by means of the electric cable. Ata given si yo steamer sneered out of fone way and warn passing vessels, the barge the four gentienen above referred to was pulled off to @ safe distance and the crowd on board the steamer, composed now ly of ladies taken on board at Wiulett’s Point, who hadtbeen invited to Partake of the elegant Inncheon provided by Gene- Tal Humphreys, became excited, and in a few seo onds a terrible report was heard, three mmense columns of water ascended high into the air, at jetty angles, causing the water to boil at the jurface, and as they fell a magnificent rainvow was formed by the falling spray. Tne sensation on board the steamer was as though the boat had been struck from beneath, while the collapse of the waler created @ second and distinct , concussion through the air, ‘ xo TORPEDO consisted of four pounds of gun cotton in a wooden Irame, and sunk thirty-three feet also. When the Spark Was applied scarcely any report was lieard, but the water boiled violently, and the shock felt on the Water was terrific, showiig that this would have done fearful execution to the bottom of a cralt sailing over it, TORPEDO NO. 3 was 100 pounds of common mortar powder sunk to a depth of seventy feet. After tne fire nad been communicated oue might imagine there was a whurl- pool or boiling spring. Tue water did not ascend very high, but the shock was that of a hundred pieces oi artillery being discharged together and caused the ladies to start and the timbers of the steamer to creak, TORPEDO NO. 4 created great excitement and some little alarm. Fifteen minutes elapsed before it was ready, and then everybody wanted to know why the Generals rowed so far off, and why General Abbott kept so far away with his battery. The topedo was com} of one hundred pounds of powder, placed only eight feet under the surface. One of these tried some time avo threw the water a ®& distance of 207 feet, according to the instrament employed for measur- ing these things, and this fact being made known, it left an uneasy impression. Every gga having been taken, General Ab- ott rowed off and applied the spark. Anything more grand and at the same time more terribie than this could scarcely be conceived. The instant the fire was communicated a body of water, such as is represented in Eastern prints caused by water spouts, ascended at least two hundred feet in the alr, carrying with it portions of the torpedo frame, which it scat far and near, throwing some Pieces 300 yards, A large whirlpool was also formed at its base, tne influence of which was felt in the barge at & great distance. This one gave general Satisfaction, Major King asserting that if a vessel had been over it it would have broken it in two, ‘The explosion Of a small raft completed the experi- ments, GENERAL SHERMAN REVIEWING THE TROOPS. The visitors were then taken on shore to the parade ground for the purpose of witnessing 8 & full dress parade and a review of the soldiers at og) ee th by General Sherman. The General first he racks, then privately pected one company, and returned across the splendid parade ground and reviewed the various companies stationed at the post. tle afierwards expressed his eutire satusfacuiou with their perform. ance and congratulated General Abbott on thé excellent condition of the barracks, &c., and also on the clever manner in which he Nad conducted the dangerous experiments he had witnessed, with- out the slightest hitch or accident, The parade being ended Secretary Belknap and General hie ni remained at the house of the com- mander of the post, while General Sherman re- turned to New York with the visitors, where they arrived at about eight o'clock in the evening. 4 PORGER ARRESTED, On Saturday, the 2a “instant, Henry Sarter, a bookkeeper in the employ of Sulzbacher & Church, 182 Church street, was given @ check for $615 on the Central National Bank to obtain that amount to ay off the hands employed by the firm. While on 18 Way to the bank he altered the check to $1,615 4nd put the $1,000 in his own pocket, With this money he wenton Te id and spent all of tt but $40 on women and gambling. When he found his funds were getting low he purchased @ ticket for Chicago and from tat city to Dubuque, lowa. Desiring to raise money In that city, he forged a Graft on the above bank and attempted to raise money on it from the clerk of the notel. The latter, surmising all ‘was not night, telegraphed to this city in relation to ‘he matter, and received a reply to detain Sarter. Detective Heidelberg was despatched after the forger, and arrived at the Central Ofice iast night with his prisoner.

Termination of the Trial in Brooklyn—Dr. Perry Convicted and Sentenced to State Prison. ‘The trial of Dr, Benjamin Perry for manslaughter in the third degree, in causing the death of Emily A. Post, of Summerville, N. J., was resumed in the criminal branch of the Brooklyn City Court, before Judge McCue, yesterday morning, and occupied the attention of tie Court throughout the day. The court room was thronged with spectaiors, who lis- tened attentively te the proceedings. after the Prosecution rested Mr. Spencer aesired the District Attorney to state which count in the indictment they were to answer. The District Attorney de- clined, and the Court refused to compel him. Mr. John Cooney then opened tne case for the de- fence, contending that the accused had no object in trying to produce an abortion on the deceased, nor had the evidence of the prosecution shown that such a crime had been committed. He was receiv- ing $10 per week for her board, and it was his object to keep her there as 1ong as possible, Al the termination of Mr. Cooney’s address Mr. Spencer said, in answer to a question from the Court, that the case of the defence having been pretty fully proven by the prosecution he did not think it necegsary to place more than one witmess— the defendant—on the stand. Even the necessity of this, he satd, was not apparent; but he would do it to show the jury that the accused was not afraid to tell his own story. DR, BENJAMIN PERRY was then called tothe stand, and testified as fol- lows:—I am a physician: have been practising for ten years, half of which time bas been in this coun- try and the remainder in England; have a certif- cate from poth hospitals in London; never was arrested before; recollect the brotner of the ae- ceased coming to my office on friday, the 18th of August; he asked me if 1 could get her board through her confinement; told him that could be done, and that it would cost her $10 a week for board and $50 for attendance. On the following Monday he brought her in and said tnat ne had not the $50 convenient, but offered me $25, but I refused to take that; then he took some money out of his pocket, which he counted and found to be $41, of which he gave me $40, and I gave him a receipt; he said he would be im the next night, and I gave him the address of Madame Van Buskirk when he had arranged for board, and told him that he could call at any time nd see her; he said he did not care about seeing her, but tnat his mother would in all probability be there; he did not call as he had promised, and I told Miss Post tnat it was very strange that he did not come, and she said that he would certainly come next day, and that if he did not she could go to her friends in Brooklyn; went back again to Mrs. Van Buskirk’s on Saturday and told her that Post had not come; on the preceding Thurs- day I had goue to the address which Sie had given a8 & fFeal estate agent, but could hot find him; there was no such person there; on Monday 1 received @ message from Mrs, Van Bus- kirk asking me to come over and see her; I went there and she told me that, nobody having come to see Miss Post, ane had determined to go over to her fMmends in Brooklyn; I then went up stairs and saw Miss Post, and she told me the same thing, and I then went out and hired McGuire's carriage to go to Brookiyn, offemmng bim $3 and ferriage; we drove from his stand to St. Mark’s piace, where Mrs. Van Buskirk and Miss Post got into the carriage, and we then drove to Gold street, Brooklyn, near Myrtle avenue; i rang the bell of the door pointed out oy Miss Post, and asked for Mrs. Jones, that being the name she gave of her mother, but there was no person of that name; she then told us to ask for Mrs. Wiggins, which we did, but failed also to find her; alter that the driver made a miatake, and was driving off in the direction of Adeipni instead of DuMeld street; on discovering the mistake the horses’ heads were turned, and by Miss Post’s direction we drove to Dr Swalm’s, in Dui- field street, and rang the bell, in response to which a gurl put her head out of the window and informea us that the doctor and his wife were absent in the country; she did not Know any person named Jones, and refused to allow Miss Post to enter the house; she told us, however, that she knew a woman named Wiggins, who lived in Prince street; we drove there, but fatiea to find her; then drove to the First precinct station, where I told’ the sergeant I had a sick lady whom i wanted to leave with him; she did not com- Plain of any sickness uutil we reached Gold street, ana then she did not complain much; when she left New York, she appeared to be about ag strong as ‘when she came inw my hands. CROSS-EXAMINATION, I have studied medicine for about five years; my specialty is private disease; my proper name 1s Ar- thur; never went by any other name than Perry; never practised in New York under the name of Earle; have been advertising for several years; never ad- vertised i any other name than Dr. Perry; my only knowledge of Madame Van Buskirk is that ihe keeps @ lying-in be don’t know whether she ever practises medicine herself or not; but know she has a sign up as female physician; @id not think that she ever took females there to nave them Iillegiti- mnately delivered; Madame Van Buskirk toid me she had @ physician near by who attended to cases wnen she wanted one; it was not my understanding that 1 was to be called upon to attend to the confinement 1m this case; don’t know who was her reguiar hysician; don’t Know Dr. Rosenzweig; never met im at her house; don’t know that he ever visited the house; we started about eleven o'clock from Su Mark’s place to come to Brooklyn; did not think the folks would be in bed; did not suggest that it would be well to wait until next morning: the reason I did Not tell them to wait till next morning was because J saw they had been waiting for my arrival tor some tme; if 1 did say that she could not de delivered without instruments it was because of some state- ment in regard to her case that J saw in the papers; 1 don’t remember what it was J did see in the papers; the reason that 1 felt interested in the disposition of Miss Post at Madame Van Buskirk’s was because the arrangement had been made through me; I be- lieve that her friends lived in Brookiyn: I sometimes send medicines round the country, and advertise medicine to bring on the courses; cali that medicine female pills; they are composed of aloes, myrrh and iron: receive letiers from persons in regara to their dimMicuity, and answer them directly how to get_rid of the difficulty; made no examination of Miss Post; don’t remember ever having stated that I did. ‘The defence here rested, and after a recess for half an hour Mr. Spencer proceeded to sum up for the defence, followed by Mr. Morris for the people. Judge McCue then delivered the charge to the jury, When they retired. Alter an absence of two hours they returned in court with a verdict of guilty of manslaughter in the fourth degree, THE SENTENCE. Judge McCue, in passing sentence upon the pris- oner, said the jury had listened to the evidence patiently and he had had a fair trial, with the as- sistance of able counsel. It was but fair to the jury that he should say that he fully concurred with them tn their verdict. It was calied manslaughter in the fourth degree, but he did not know why it should not be called manslaughter in the first de- gree. The term of imprisonment was two years, which was the longest he could give him, but he considered the term too short for a crime like this, He then sentenced him for the term of two years in State Prison. Mr. Spencer then sald, before the Court adjourned, he would move that the remaining prisoner, Mra, ‘Van Buskirk, be admitted to ball ‘The moon was opposed by the District Attorney, who said that he had strong evidence against Mrs, Van Buskirk; that he found a whole apothecary shop at her ‘house and instruments for producing abortions.
