MONMOUTH PARK RACING, | Sz THIRD DAY OF THE SUMMER MEETING The Sights, the Sayings and the | ,, Doings on the Course. THREE CAPITAL CONTESTS. Neyada Wins the West End Hotel Stakes, Arizona the Mile Heats, and Susan Ann the Hoey Stakes, LONGFELLOW GOING HOM ' Lona Brancu, Augnst 7, 1872, Monmouth Park Course was enveloped in an at- mosphere of sunshine to-day, which contrasted strongly in many respects with the cloudy weather which prevailed on Saturday last and on Tuesday. Everything was brilliant, and the spirits of the spectators, as well as of the horses, were affected by it to an extent that made the third day. of the second summer meeting the most enjoyable of the present series of racing days. The uttendance was mot larger than on the two preceding days; but there were many new faces present, and the bouquet of Iadies on the Grand Stand was unusually select as well as handsome. Great expectations are indulged in for the last two days of the meeting, to-morrow and Friday, and it is more than probable that the last day will ve to be a thorough ‘ladies’ day,” not merely in int Of numerical attendance of the fair sex, but also in social standing, beauty and style. The coup @il of the famous course yesterday was one of the fairest ever presented from any grand stand, he last ‘got word over from the other course patkis toot torte i seemed to pain him 2 leetie.' Three or four negro boys, ” leading Extr: Expr at 4 were fellow’s ground for tng, ‘act, half brother, ir we circle, of which the old formed the centre. As Littleton The old man pointed toward him with his stick, said, with a feeble drawl, partly due to his rural Kentucky accent :— “That's @ brave little hoss thar, an’ a tbengt he @ leetle gis for the weights put on him, I don’t think thar’s anything in beat him— leavin’ out Basset. ‘Ife's a good hoss, and I think ne will do some good runnin’ on Friday.” When asked how long he had been in the busi- ness of training and rearing horses, John said it was “nigh forty years since he first began to train pone, but his 1ather had been @ hoss-raiser all hia fe.

His shoes slosh about on his weary feet, and a lights cough seems to stick now and then in his throat, He lives at his stables, eats from & rough board table set temporarily under the eaves, his diet being little else than bread, meat, and potatoes cooked in an iron pot by one of his stable hands, He travels in the cars with his horses, and can make a good, comfortable night of it on a shock of straw in the corn old man secms tolerably well ple: istence, rises early and goes to bed early, never drin! ig peened always to have a little quiet ik strangers, but not too much of it. He appeared for a while on the lawn to-day, and as his identity became known half the ladies on the grand stand rose to their fect to look at the feeble old man, Such is fame. He had come over from the stables to see Extract and Express win, and added another digappointmment to the list which has checkered his life. THE RACING. The track was in capital order, the weather was favorable for fast time, and great anticipations for fine racing were indulged in by all who wended their way to Monmouth Park, Three races were on the card, the first being the West End Hotel Stakes, one mile and three-quarters, for three-year-old fillies; the second a race for a purse, mile heats; and was amply appreciated by all those who enjoy the beautiful in nature. Of course the major- ity of patrons of race grounds are not, strictly speaking, lovers of nature beyond nature's revealment in the perfection of horsefesh. The horse men—ruisers, trainers and betting fraternity alike, are too busy in their im- fted, though important, sphere to pay attention to landscape. A race ts a race to them, whether it be run in the Desert of Sahara or in the rose-carpeted Valley of Cashmere, and they do not care a button for luxuriant fields, rolling meadows, clustering _ homes, neatly tended gardens and so forth, as ad- Juncts to the optic effect. Their world is within the limits of the track. Of course, mow and then, you may arrest their at- tention for a moment, and by dint of sheer glowiny eloquence, in speaking of the Beenery, draw from them the remark, “A beautiful course, sir; beautiful course; nothing finer in the world.” But, mark you, it is “beautiful course*— the course must come in, and they cannot find it in their hearts to say, ‘Delightful surroundings, sir, delightful,” or, “a splendid bit of scenery, splendid.” There. was the usual attendance of sports and betting men present, and, as usual, they straggied all over the lawn, bought up pools, became excited as the favorite’s chances trembled on THE VERGE OF DEFEAT, tried to “hedge” sometimes, and conducted them- selves in the regular business way. They don’t go to Monmouth for fun. It is only the quiet people, ‘who get seats on the Grand Stand and stay there, that visit the course for pleasure; and they seem to get what they go for. The boisterous few on the | lawn and front steps go down there for specula- tion, and sometimes they get too much of it and sometimes they don't. On Tuesday, when all the favorites were beaten, they got more speculation than they imagined getting. and to-day they have come out abont so so, No one hhas made a fortune, though considerable money has changed hands, THE GRAND STAND BOUQUET ‘was decidedly more showy than on yesterday, and it was probably a mere question of sunshine. On ‘Tuesday the ladies dreaded the rain, and attired themselves. accordingly in sombre colors. To-day they wore light, gauzy fabrics of attractive tints, and looked, as a conse- quence, fairer and brighter. There were several ladies present, whose unusual beauty at- tracted marked attention, and the quidnuncs Were all agog to learn somewhat of them. But beyond the fact that they were recent orrivals at the West End Hotel and were a trifle unacquainted and somewhat exclusive nothing could be gleaned. Many recognized belles and men ol s0- ciety were present, however, and were duly ized. “The theatrical 'world was very een represented, atong the number being eodore Moss and wife, Harold Wallack, George Mark, Harry Wail, “who has just arrived from fngland; the brothers William and ake noe the former with his at- tractive wife; Mark Bates and Joseph Booth. ‘Then, too, there were many who are distinguished in focial and commercial life, especially noticeable deing William B. Dinsmore, the famous express man; Mr. Hoyt and his charmfu, the late’ Lieutenant General Mexican hero; Julins Abecassis, Mr. and Harris and daughter, of New York; Law- rence and Thomes Jerome, William Dibblee and daughters; Mr. Townsend, Jr., of New York, and wife; Charles Palmer and ‘family, Dr. T of Middletown, N.

Wer sister, Mr. Sanford’s Salina, was a clipper, but, unfortunately, was taken with the horse disease that prevailed about New York some months since, called spinal meningitis, and was so prostrated that Mr. Sanford thought it would be useless to train her again, and he sent her to his stud farm in Kentucky to become a mother of racers, Mr. Mc- Grath’s bay filly Jury, a sister of Susan Ann, who won the three-mile dash, made a very good race with sister to Salina. The second race—the mile heats—had five entrics, and the best of them proved to be Arizona, by Lexington, dam imported Zone, by The Cure, She is a full sister of Cape Race. Arizona is a good- sized mare, with a fine forchand and great driving power behind; but her middle piece appears to be deficient for long journeys. She shows considerable speed for short distances; but we would like one better put together for races of heats, The three-mile dash was a good race, and Susan Ann won it gallantly, She beat Preakness, the favorite, very easily. About Alroy, in our remarks qtereey, we were led to believe that he was a bet- r horse than he turned out to be. When the trainer of Alroy was aske by our reporter, why the horse made such a miser- able contest with a and Preakness, the gen- tleman, with a knowing wink, answered, that “Alroy will beat Preakncss to-morrow, d’ye mind.’? Hearing this assertion from the individual, it was natural to suppose that Alroy was all right and would make @ capital race at three miles, The truth was apparent, however, yesterday, that Alroy is in the hands of mien who do not know anything about putting @ horse in order for a race, and this great colt was brought on the track unfit to run at all, Judge Grinstead, of Lex- | ington, the ntleman who raised Alroy, | stated to us in his office, last spring, that Alro: was a much better horse than Abdel Koree, ani that he was next to Harry Bassett as a race horse. | Mr, Donahue should not allow such horse to | be butchered by trainers who do not understand | their business. That Alroy was a race horse and j Qught to be again when properly trained many | horsemen are sure; and We would suggest that he be placed tn competent hands in the future. Preakuess rau a very poor race, but was finely ridden py Haywood, the Engilsh Jockey. ‘The horse was beaten attwo miles, but the jockey car- ried him along the last mile by main strength. Of McGrath’s mare Susan Ann too much praise cannot be given, She is a plain looking creature, about fifteen hands and au inch high, with two white heels behind and a strip in her face. She was sired by Lexington, dam Roxana by imported Chesterfield. Susan Ann has run many races with medium success, generally being overmatched. Yesterday, however, she had two not above her calibre, and she beat them in gallant style. This is the ‘second victory of the mare at this mecting, ; she having won the Schell Cup the day before, ; Susan Ann should make @ good brood mare, and ler owner intends to breed her to Longfellow next February, providing John Harper will let him; if | not Susan Ann will be sent Philadelphia to | Leamington, at Chestnut Hill. Uncle John Harper | Will not jet Sugan Ann leave Kentucky, be assured, ‘The first race, the West End Hotel Stakes, had twenty-three entries, but three only of that number came to the post when called for, ese Were John Harper's chestnut illy Extract, by Endorser, dam Nantura, H. P. McGrath's bay filly Jury, by Lexing- ton, dam Koxana, and A, C. nklin’s bay filly Ne- vada, sister to Salina. The sister of Salina was the favorite over the fleid before the start—that is, when it was found out that Victoria would not start, but not before. Victoria was the favorite on the way down the bay on the Jease Hoyt, where the pools were sold by Jonson, but at Monmouth Park, when it was ascertained that Victoria would not start, sister to Salina bad the call over Extract and Jury. Nevada won a capital race in handsome | style, Jury second, Extract third. in the second race, Which was for a purse, there were five entrics, comprising A. C.

The mare won the first heat, latd up for the second and won th® third very cleverly. Ex- press does not seem to have recovered from ihe Mishap that befel him last year while at Long Branch, Me was a good three-year-old at the be- ginning of the spring of 1871, but got wrong either mn his way here or at the Branch, and never Las been a race horse since, The third race was for the Hoey Stakes, three mileg out, which closed with six entries, but only three of them started for the stakes. ese Were Joseph Dotiahue’s chestnut colt Alroy, by Australian, dam Netlic Grey; H. P. McGrath's bay mare Susan | Apn, by Lexington, dam Roxana, and M. H. San- } fora's bay horse Preakness, by Lexington, dam Bay Leaf, Before the start Preakness was the favorite | at nearly two to one over the field. He was, how- ever, beaten badly by Susan Ann, in capital time, and those who lost on Preakness on Tuesday, onder the impression that he was injudiciously ridden, may how come to the conclusion that he is not the horse they took him for, Susan Ann will retire | from the turf with the termination of the autumn's racing, and it is to be he ped will become the dam of inany racers, as she is a good mare, ‘The following are the details of what came off: — The First Race.

At the quarter pole Lord Byron and Commerce were head ana head, one length in advance of Express, the latter being one length infront of Arizona, who was two lengths ahead of Gerald, As they ran down the backstretch Lord Byron, Commerce and Ex- xe were parallel, Gerald fourth, Arizona fifth, here was no change at the half-mile pole or around the lower turn; but approaching the three-quarter pole Arizona, Express and Lord Byron were head and head, Gerald and Commerce failing in the rear. When the horses entered the homestretch the race was reduced to a struggle between Express and Arizona. They ran Pg up the homestretch and elung to each other like lovers until within thirty yards of the stand, when Ari- zona, like many of her sex have done before, made some of the most rapid squirms ever witnessed and beat en yyy under the string a short length, making the heat in 1:46%%.

Preakness, however, meant to have a thing at the beginning, and he rushed to the front as the ho:ses ran around the upper turn, and he led one length and a half at the F Stetag? pole, Alroy second, one length ubead of jusan Ann. Going down the backstretch Susan Ann and Preakness were head and head, one length in front of the mare, At the three-quarter pole the leaders were three lengths in front of Susan Ann, but as they ran up the homestretcn rapidly and passed under the string at the stand Alroy was a heck in front, Preakness second, two lengths ahead of Susan, he latter then moved up and took sides with Alroy, Preakness having just | at that moment cut loose and moved to the frout as he passed the Club House, He was not allowed to lead long, however, tor Bobby Swinn brought Susan Ann after him with a determination, and at the quarter pole showed im iront by twolengths. It | was evident at this moment that the mare had too much foot for the stallion, and his backers be- gan to quail. There was no doubt of the bottom of the mare, and bets were offered at odds that she would win the race. Afew offers were taken at the moment, but when it was discovered that Hay- wood was foreing and nursing Preakness no morte money could be invested om the mare, As she passed the stand at the completion of the second mile, five lengths in front of Preakness, the two miles having been run in capital ttme—the first mile being done in 1:4944 and the second in 1:514s, making 3:41 for the two miles—the cry was $150 on the mare, but noone responded. It was a defeat. Susan Ann kept on at a fine racing pace, half a dozen lengths in front of Preakness, who waa strug- fling badly on, and she came home a winner by ten lengths, making the last mile in 1:52%{ and the three miles ia 4g, Which is most capital time under any circumstances. Alroy was beaten nearly a quarter of a mile, the jorse being entirely out Of fix for a race {ike His, and his owners, trainers and others interested In his welfare, who knew his condition, should not have started him in the race. SLAUGHTER OF THE INNOCENTS. The Recklessness of the Second Avenue Railroad Car Drivers—in Emphatic Verdict by a Coroner’s Jury. On the Ist day of August one of the open cars of the Second Avenue Railroad line, while driving at @ reckless rate of specd through Forsyth street, ran over a child, aged two years and two months, named Willie Rohl, son of a poor woman named Catharine Rohl, of 205 Forsyth street. The child had a compound fracture of the thigh, leg and foot and died a day or two after. Yesterday Coroner Schirmer held an inquest in the case at the Coroners’ ofice, when a number of witnesses were examined. Ex-policeman Abijah Smith's testimony showed that the driver, Joun Higgins, was @ green hand, -utterly unfit for the management of a car; that he collided with a car at Chatham sjuare, with a wagon corner of Grand street and the Bowery, and ran off the switch at the corner of Grand and Forsyth streets; that he was driving through Forsyth street when the acc dent occurred at the rate of eight or ten niles per hour. Drosia Moldes, a female passenger, testified that the driver turned the brake open instead of putting | it on; that had he put on the brake he had plenty of time to stop and save the child's life after the alar; was given, the car was going eight or ten miies per hour, Other witnesses confirmed her testimony as of the driver and the high It also i age in evidence that conductor ordered the driver to stop for that when the alarm was given ag about fity fet from the child; that the jailed to stop, find that the car was eventu- ally stopped by two men near him, one of whom took tho lines and the other the brake. One of them, se png eS Be ‘a8 green at the business, be- fore the dent offered to drive for him, but waa not allowed by conductor neis Clark, The con- ductor's testimony was in or of the company, to the utter uniitne: rate of speed, the but it was fatly contradicted by halfadozen, The driver testified that be tn been put on the road three days before for instruction, and t was the ‘and the third round trip’ he had made asa , and that he did all in lis power to save the child, but was unable to stop the car, Dr. Cush- man described the wounds, which in hts opinion caused death, and the jury retired. After being out about five minutes, they returned aud rendered the verdict :— that the by injuries receive Recond Avenue Railroad, the jury further fud that the acct: ignoraice and utter untitness of the driver for tion, and that the officers of the company deserve censure lacing the lives of the public in the keeping of such & driver. The ratlroad company child were represented by did not permit them to pareve. It is to be hoped that this verdict will have a salutary eifect in cheeking the excesses of car conduetors and drivers ou our city ratiroads, ORUSHED TO DEATH. Newnone, N.

The announcement that the wedding was to be solemnized attracted a miscellaneous multitude of curious people, who swarmed around the grim and venerable doors of the old Abbey and swarmed into the cloisters and corridors opened to the public, As a parish church of Westminster, the Abbey can- not, under any circumstances, be closed to the pub- lic. So the portion known as the choir, extending back to the chancel, and the screen which separates the chancel from Henry VIII.’s chapel, was en- closed, and carefully guarded by police and officers of the Chapter. On the outside of the iron railing, in the space known as The Poets’ Corner, and in the space immediately opposite, the public, to the number of perhaps two thousand, had swarmed in, and were eagerly clustered around pillars and under the arches and heaped over the chairs and benches in the most pro- miscuous and unseemly way; while within the choir, where there were probably seats and standing room fora thousand people, the invited guests slowly and impatiently assem- bled, The entrance to the choir from the Dean's NEW YORK HERALD, THURSDAY, AUGUST 8, 1872—WITH SUPPLEMENT. ke of fs aad his e: of Rouzaud, Rouzaud of Comitois, a ag locksmith of Jouzac (Charente-Inférieure). 8 son left France at fifteen years of age, invited by @ merchant to the Isle of Bourbon, who, having al ‘ved hig intelligence, chose him for his clerk, Once there the clerk speedily distinguished himself, became a partner, then master, married young creole, Congtten of Admiral Bosq, and returned to hima large commorcia ortantinisene wed saeies establishment, aud tal with him his wife and children, three’ boys anda girl, It ts the eldest of these’ children, A a who has married Mile.

The bride made the responses in a clear and musical be heard throughout the choir. reached the declaration, ‘I RranoHnce, that they be man and wile Losier, in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost,” the Dean, fol- lowed by the procession, marched into the inner art.of the sanctuary, the bride and groom kneel- ie before him, and the ladies and gentiemen in attendance also kneeling, while the choir, under the direction of Rev. Mr. Jones, intoned Psalm exxvili., Hestnning. “Blessed are they that fear the Lord and walk in His ways.’ This was very sweet and effective, the musi¢ being an arrangement of Beethoven’s. After this came the exhortation to “all ye that are married or that intend to take the holy estate of matrimony upon you,’ which Dean Stanley read with feeling and em- phasis, and, placing his hands upon the heads of the bride and groom, closed the service with this blessing, followed by THE BENEDICTION: Almighty God, who at the beginning did create our first arents, Adam and Eve, and did sanctity and join them ogether in marriage, pour upon you the riches of His rice, sanctify and bless you that ye may please Hin poth in bo.ly and soul and five together i holy love unto your lives’ énd.

Mr. Jones, and set to music by James Turle, was chanted :;— Father of Life, confessing ‘Thy majesty and power, We seek Thy gracious blessing Yard was trying, on account of the crowd ana the absence of discipline or foresight among the at- tendants, And as-the hour of eleven drew nigh the choir was apparently well filled, and a long line of eager guests extended through the middie aisle of the cathedral and the cloisters, As the day was Unusually oppressive there was much suffering among the people in the corridors, and one or two ladies fainted. An announcement was made by one of the officers that no more could be admitted, the choir being full, except a few particularly in- vited guests who were in the cloisters, There was quite an animated scene. One noble lady, witha beauty as peerless and queenly as that of Tenny- son’s Maud, and who made the HERALD cor- respondent, as well as many others in the vicinity, confidants of her misfortunes and emotions, told us that ehe was the Countess of So-and-so, @ fine Irish title; that she came there as the bride's especial friend and to do her honor, and must be admitted. The individual to whom these observations were addressed was a burly- faced and rather venerable beadle, whose miseries were acute, as he could give no aid to the angry mul- titude, and who felt acutely the presence of hundreds of eager pressing citizens on a warm summer's day. The situation was solved finally by a determined Tush upon the part of the crowd against the iron ate and the police in charge, which was successful lor a moment, the police being overborne, and about a hundred of the guests, mainly women—tho noble and resolute peeress in the advance—found their way into the choir before the onset could be arrested. Among the victorious assailants was the HERALD correspondent, who finally took refuge upon a@ cornice of one of the majestic pillars in the centre of the aisle, immediately overlooking the chancel. SCENES INSIDE THE ABBEY. The scene at this point was exceedingly beautiful and impressive. A companion seeseated that it re- minded him of the famous scene in the “Prophet,” or more particularly the wedding scene in “Don Carlos.” But the fuir and gilted lady who was about to march up the aisle-—prima donna in the great opera of womanhood—had never witnessed in her most triumphant hours a scene so splendid and real and full of color and poetry. Above rose the majestic Gothic arches, gray with the incense and the smoke of ten centuries, under which kings and queens had walked since the time of William Rufus to tie coronation chair, The warm, burning sun, arrested by the stained glass of the venerabie win- dows, lost its fury, and fell soft and warm and gen- erous upon the carved woodwork, the quaint panels and the mass of monumental and mural ornamen- tation. There srouped in eager expectation were many of the fairest and brightest women in England, the variegated cvulors of the summer raiment ge 3 interest and color to the scene. On one side, within a moment's walk, was The Poets’ Corner, and the gray figures of Ben Jonson and Dryden and Gay and Goldsmith and Shakspeare looked out upon the unusual pageant with what might have been fancifully regarded as wondering eyes, Nor was the interest allowed to flag. The coming of some distinguished face caused a ripple of comment and discussion. The American Minister, General Schenck, with his daughters, ar- rived early, looking unusually well, and not the least concern in his. resolute, grim, kindly face as to Washington Treaties and international compll- cations. Then came Baron Brunow, the Russian Minister, and Baroness Branow, followed almost immediately by some of the French Legation. Sir J. Renedict, the eminent musician, came early, and among those in the pany were Lady Emily Peel, the Countess of Cork; Lieutenant Fitzgerald, of the household of Prince Arthur; Mr. Cavendish Len- tinck, M. P.; Mile. Titicns, Sir G. Armitage, Viscount Benington, Sir Micl Costa, Lord A. Compton, Signor Gardont, Colonel Yomline, M._P.; Prince Poniatowsk}, Sit R. Gerard, Dr, Doremns, of New York; Mr, I. G, Jarrett and Miss Louise Jarrett, the daughter of Sir J. Benedict and two of the daughiers of Baron Rothschilds; Lord Walter Campbell, the brother of the Marquis of Lorne, came in, looking upusually well after his American tour. THE WEDDING PROCESSION. By the Church law all weddings must be solem- nized before noon, Avout twenty minutes alter eleven the Dean of Westminster, Dean Stanley, came into the chancel, accompanied by the Rev. 8. Flood Jones and the altar attendants, and pro- ceeded down the ai: At precisely twenty-seven eleven the first notes of music were hymn selected begmning, “Now thank we all our God.” Then came the procession of choristers in their quaint white gowns, who ranged themselves in line as faras the sacratarium., Dean Stanley then took his position in front of a raised stool, under the lantern, apparently in the centre of the choir, Tic music continued. There was a rustle of eagerness and expectation, and at pre- cisely halt-past eleven the weddiug procession THE BRIDE, whose features and appearance are too well known to the American people, looked unusually well; her face rather pale and subdued. She bent her eye to the ground, and seemed to_m tently to the presence of the Dean.

THE BRIDESMAIDS, Miss Nilsson was attended by the Princess Cathe- rine Poniatowski, thesBaroness Florence de Brit ton, Miss Cavendish Bentinck, Miss Kate Vivian | and Miss Venetia Cavendish Bentinck as brides- inalds, These maidens were attired alike in dresses that were extremely attractive an becoming. They were composed of a of underskirt of white muslin under a overskirt (manteau de cour) of ue 1k trimmed with pink silk. In addition there were wreaths of pink roses, with white tulle veils and | golden lockets bearing the monogram initials C. | fh diamonds and rules. All of these costumes came from Paris, and are said by cunning critics to be gems of millinery, costing fabulous sams—Miss Nilsson's alone, according to au accurate authority, costing $2,000. i BRIDEGROOM, THE who bore the battery of enrious and perhaps envious eyes that turned upon him with exceeding gtace and coolness, Wasa rather pleasant-looking French gentieman, with kind, open features; of rather a medium height; his face adorned with a tidy, dark beard; his hair carefully parted in the middie, He was in plain morning costume, with a light bine necktie, held with a gold ring, and wearing in his track, Six wheels eae over Ins body, crushing him terribly.

THE JERSEY POLICE PROBLEM. ‘Who the New Commissioners Arc and What They Will Do to Oast the Cone victed Commissioners=A Lively Time in Prospect. The new Police Commissioners of Jersey City re- ceived from Governor Parker yesterday the writs of discharge to be served on the recusant Commis- | sioners who persist in holding possession. These | “walking papers” will be served to-day, aud when | proof of service is furnished to the Governor legal measures will be promptly resorted to in order to enable the new Commissioners to organize. What | these measures are and the different steps which the new Commissioners will take to oust the pres- ent occupants were stated yesterday to a HERALD reporter by two of the new Commissioners, with the request that the programme be kept secret till the end in view is accomplished. mnen manifested a determination, which no opposi- | tion can shake, to carry out the programme. If | any serious opposition should be presented, which | is not at all probable, a lively time may be looked | for. The contest will be sharp, but of very short duration, The convicted Commissioners will hold out till the last, as they hope to continue in gitice till the elections, when they will have control of the ballot boxes—a power conferred by the charter on the Police Commissioners. They know that if they | cannot secure the next Legislature there is no hope for them, With the Legistatare on their side they can be restored to citizenship and be legislated into oMce again. This is the gieat issne at stake, hence tueir obstinacy in. clinging to the last lank, That men who were disfranchised and de- barred from being witnesses in any Court should continue to hold a public ofiice of great responst- bility is the most extraordinary legal proviem which ever puzzled the minds of Jerseymen. Jt will certainly give rise to some legislation at the next session which wili settle the question, In the selection of the new Comnilssiovers, | Governor Parker partly succeeded in resening the people from the politicians. Honest Henry Gaede, as he is familiarly known, as well in Trenton as Jersey City, 18a gentleman whose very name will inspire contideuce, Ie refused at first to xecept the position, but the Governor induced him to reconsider the matter, paying at the same time a well merited compliment to him for hts great cnerey. and spotiess integrity while representing the Fourth district at the late session of the Legista- | ture.

Among them are a few politicians of the jow-cunning order, whose counection with the Police Department would be as ruinous to | sound discipline as it was to the democratic party two sears ago. Of such men the Commissioners must beware, cise there will be another popular uprising, more powerful than that which alarmed the State in isi. i=] i E =z a2 e! E| oy Mr. James £.

No pen describe it, Icould hear the trees crashi bricks falling, and could feel the -very bi ding. shake and quiver. Bricks came rattling and clat tering down the chimney flues, and striking and crashing against the building and on the pavement, below. ‘The whole building seemed falling mons me, and not even a fire escape could save me, large brick church stands a few feet west of tha building, und it seemed that each extra gush would bring the crushing weight of its spire through the roof of the hotel and into the room in which I was nea The fact that the church had no steeple made little diiference to me, as I did not know it until after the storm had passed, The rain con- tunued pouring down in floods, but H ‘THE TORNADO WENT ON its way after a brief sojourn of three minutes, The hotel was literally “alive” with its excited inmates, I put on my coat and joined the others in the ben and such a sight!

Many were in bed on this floor when the storm Durst upon us, but Ido not care even to f in their feelings as the roof was torn from above them and went whirling away with the winds. One floor could not contain the water, and it found its way very rapidly into the rooms below. ‘The rain con- tinged until nearly midnight, and very great dam- age was done to property in the hotel. “All was quict on the lines” this morning as I went out to look upon the destraction com} by the storm. ‘The tin roof from the hote! was car- rhea bodily into the State Capitol grounds and landed more than one hundred feet from its start- ing place, It remains as it fell, across the wide lank road in the park, having ught with it to Ks present resting place a beautiful medium tree and the branches of many larger ones, YHE DAMAGE TO PROPERTY thronghont the city is immense.
