Meeting of the Board of Appor- tionment Yesterday. The Old Battles Fought | Over Again. The Board of Apportionment met yesterday morning at eleven o'clock in the Comptroller’s Ofice, the Mayor looking rotund and joty, the Comptroller appearing stuf and formal and cold, while Mr. Vance bore himself with his pecuti lolly dignity, and his colleague, Mr. Wheeler, smiled aud bowed at every one with his wonted poilteness, Deputy Comptroller Storrs, whose imensions begin to rival those of the Mayor, Jed the meeting, acting as Mr. Green’s secre- tary and prompter. Mr. WHEELER, the Secretary of the Board, read the minutes of the last meeting in reference to the issue of assessment bonds. Mr. GREEN moved that the approval ot the min- utes be postponed until he bad time to examine the solutions adopted at that session. Th at importance on account of the lar assessinents which they necessitated. Mr. WiHkeLER made the point that the resolu- tions were not copies, but originals, and had been perfectly accessible to the Comptroiler, as they (the originals) bad been in his oMfice ever since. WHE OLD VorE, Mr. Green's motion to postpone action on the miuutes wus then lost by the following vote:— Yeas—Green and Havemeyer; uays—Wheeler and Van Mr. WHEELER then moved to adopt the minutes, Same vote, same result, A blank pause ensued, after which His Honor rose to make an explanation of bis vote. He said he had voted for laying the minutes on the tabie because the Comptroiler had desired it, (Mr. Green looked very grave and did not seem to be ap- peased.) It would have been impolite to have been otherwise, as the Couiptrotier had the greatest share of responsibility in the matter, and he therejore ought to have an opportunity to examine the resolutions before they became binding. He did not think (the Mayor smiled as he said this) that the Comptroller had any sinister design in asking to be allowed to read the resolutions care- fully, and it was but natural that he (the Comp- troller) had not had the time to do so since the last meeting Mr. Vance inquired whether the Comptroller suspeeted that there were any inaccuracies iu these accounts. Mr. GREEN, nothing daunted, retorted that there might be tor ail he knew, as they bad only been casually read here. . subject was then dropped, to the manifest | Telier of ail the members. A HINT TO MR. VAN NORT. Mr. GREEN then addressed the Board om the sub- ject of the large amounts of money required for the laborers on the Boulevard. There were 500 more men employed there this week than during the corresponding week last year, and their pay amounted to $100,000 a month, those works in the upper part of the city ought not to be pressed unduly. This was a dig at Commis- missioner Van Nort, who was, unfortunately, not present to receive it. ‘N moved that he be authorized to issue $50,000 assessment bonds from time to time as re. | quired, The motion was carried, Aresolution was passed to pay Dr. Hammond | $458 jor Medical services (special post-mortem examinations). The COMPTROLLER read a long paper setting forth the great number of assessments vacated by the varions courts, and tbe great expenses caused thereby. He finally offered a resolution asking the Commissioner of Public Works for his estimate of the amount required for the completion of these works, the assessments on which had been vacated by the courts. He called upon the Secretary, Mr. Wheeler, to state whether a copy of the resolution | adopted by the Board on June 23 requesting this mformation had been sent to Mr. Van Nort. Mr. WHEELER Stated that by an oversight he had omitted to transmit a copy of the resolution fo the Department of Public Works, but would do so im- mediately. Mr. GREEN said a month bad elapsed since the passage of that resolution. Pubic business could not on properly unless they had a Secretary who wou promptly attend to his duties, ‘The resoiution offered by Mr. Green was rejected y the votes of Messrs, Vance and Wheeler, The Mayor said that the Secretary (Mr. Wheeler) had irequentiy spoken to him of HIS DESIKE TO RESIGN THE POSITION. He saw “the way business was conducted here.” The Vomptrolier, that great and good man, was put to considerable inconvenience by reason of the papers being in the hands of persons outside the Comptroiler’s OMice. He was therefore dis- posed to relieve the Secretary of his onerous duties and to appoint a gentleman who would find no fault with bis duties. He moved that the Comp. troller act henceforth as Secretary,ol the Board. (Here the Mi troller, and they smiled.) This motion Was lost by the following significant vote: Yeas—Havemeyer and Green; nays—Vance and Wheeler, Mr, GReeN grimly bowed to Mr. Wheeler, and moved that he continue to act as Secretary. Before the motion was entertained Mr. WHEELER complained that he would be put to a great deal of inconvenience if the papers Were left in the Comp- troller’s Oitice. The terests of the people, and never looked at a ques- tron trom point of view. Mr, GREEN reiterated hts complaint that he nad no opportunity to examine papers before he signed them. d; MR.

Y. CS CRUISE OF '74, At Anchor Off Glen Cove and the Start for the Eastward. Incidents ot the Run to Morris Cove. Morris Cove, July 23, 1874, Yachting in pleasant weather, when there is a clear sky and breeze enough to make the boats lay down to their work, is certainly enjoyable; but when there isn’t a breath of air to fill the sails, and drliting takes the place of a merry brush with sister boats, the enjoyment is of the most monot- onous character and is voted a bore, It is almost as titesome a8 when a severe and continued storm swoops down upon you, and all the pleasure ex perienced is of the gymnastic order, leading to headaches, knocking the skin of shins that are tender, smashing crockery, and such like. Al though the feet of the Brooklyn Yacht Club dia not experience a storm in endeavoring ‘to reach the rendezvous at Glen Cove on Wednes- day afternoon, the wind died away when the first of the yachts reached City Island, and instead of resting themselves on the beautiful lawn in front of the pavilion an hour or so before dinner with the ladies who anxiously ex- pected them, the yachtsmen drifted here and there | over the smooth waters and the young moon looked down fom a cloudless sky and guided them to their destination, Late in the night, when several of the yacntsmen’s guests who had gone by the Seawanhaka to join their vessels at the Cove became disgusted with waiting on the beach, they suffered themselves to be seduced into billiards, and tor a time the novel game played by distin. | guished gentlemen relieved the tedium of the oc | casion, bat that, too, without the fear of Freneb professionals in their eyes, Was soon set down as poor pleasure and only fit (or barkeepers, and the aforesaid yachtsmen’s guests were thrown back upon their last resouzce—discussing the beauties of the moon through the bottom of stumpy telescopes that just before had contamed a thirsty throat inll of Pilsner or “some of the same,” Tuere was an uncertain air about a few of the yachtsmen, and alter listening to the music by the “band” and wishing that there might oe a dance and @ revel, these young marine adventur- ers chewed the butt of their last cigar and went to bed sadly disappointed. Morning brought A RADIANT SKY, buton the hills in the harbor a murky fog hung about their wooded brows as with a garland of gossamer, that looked very pretty, yet seemed to | contain fever and ague enough to satisfy the de- siresof the most exacting Westchester county gentleman. About five o'clock, when Glen Cove | Was fast asicep and the ladies were dreaming of the disappointment that all their loveliness and rich atiires of the night before had not an appreciat- ive audience and gone for nought, two mysterious beings stood on the dock endeavoring to obtain “points” and the names of the eight or ten wele come sail lying at ancnor off the beach. Soona “skipper” from the nearest boat that wanted a httle iresh meat for vreakfast pulled ashore, and those not known at their distant anchorage were ascertained—eleven In all, the addition to the list hurriedly transinitted at an eaily sour this morn- ing being the sioop Cithe, Mr. M. J, Davidson, and Helena, Mr. F, M. Flint, THE START FOR MORRIS COVE. With time tor breakfast jor those yachtsmen who preferred to eat that meal at the hotel, and ample opportunity to fix everything snug tor the run to Morris Cove, Vice Commodore Dickerson delayed firing the first signal gun from the flagsiup Fleur- de-Lis until eignt o'clock, when there was a com- motion on every deck and preparations made for the start. Halt an hour after the second gun was heard, when the crews, ready and waiting for the | report, obeyed orders with alacrity, and with a cheer the white canvas began to flutter in the light northerly breeze, and one after another the yachts began to show the way up the Sound, on which the sun now beatmed with the brightest glances. As the | boats beat out of kempstead Harbor the Emma T., with a goodly company, was first in line. Then came the stanch and ready Sadie, with John M. Sawyer and George Dunning on board to aid and | cheer the hospitavie owner, Mr. Smith Ford, and img match which took place there on Friday last. — Tereaineaney at the same time preserve that quietness which all athictes in traming for an important event desire unproken. By the by, the boat race Messrs. Saw- yer and Dunning intend to pull during the cruise 18 greatly discussed and betting has commenced on the result. Mr. Dunning is rapidly reduciug his enormous avoirdupois, and only yesterday, during the caim, towed the Sadie a distance of four miles, “just for amusement,” he says, but in reality to test his wind and endurance. Both were lound to be satisfactory. Then came the Schemer, a pry boat, and looking quite clean ana bright with iresh paint: and after her the roomy and un- pretentious Citie, which leit the toot of Court street among the last on Wednesday and beat all her class into Hempstead Harbor, driit as it Wi Then, with her dark = sides and goodly model, came the flagship Fiéur-de-Lis, and Jollowing ber the Comes, of excellent design and handsome appearance. and & yacht which, 10 a jew shore weeks, has made both a name and reputation, Tue tude was half ebb and the breeze light, haulmg more to the eastward, The litte Sadie now began to silp rapidly through the wafer, and, standing for # waile over to the Connecticut shore, went about aud reached in TOWARD MATINICOCK POINT, which mancuvre wis fuliowed by all the fleet ex- cepting the bigger cralts—Fleur-de-Lia and Comet— which Kept side and sige on the tack towards Rye Neck tor some time, much interest being cen- tred in their movements; bus finaily the Comes drew away irom her larger sister and then stood away toward the Long Isiand shore to weather Matinicock, The modest Cie, with a slighty fresvening breeze, now began to show her metue and demonsirate that she could more than hola her own with her sister boats, and in the light breeze sailed 1ast and hung well to windward, At this juncture one of ber shrouds, irom some unac- countable reason, parted alolt, and the tine to re- pair it caused a long board to be made toward the Connecticut shore, which delay lost her a ia- vorable position, and the Sadie, Emma T., Schemer and others forged ahead rapidly toward their des- tination. Now the Comet was getting down to her work, and, walking up through the fleet, went by the smalier crait, and with judicions seamansnip obtained a decided lead of the Fieur-de-Lis, The Wind about noon died away and it seemed that the yachts were destived to another drit and to make Harbor again near midmyht, but afver a whiie it resiened, and ieeling its influence the boats made welcome headway, wile at the same time It tem. pered pleasantiy the burning rays of the sun, Off Lioyd's Neck the Fieur-de-Lis went about and Stood across the Sound to the Connecticut shore, where, hanging tor a while, she caught a land bre and tp the slack water bowled merrily Mong, hugging the shore closely. This was of gre advautage to the flagship, as the Comet, alter standing down the Long Island beach as far as Naton's Neck, she, too, went over to the ND OF WOODEN NUTMEGS, and, sailing so well iu the light air, would have put the Flour-de-Lis a long distance astern bad ft not been tor the ju yement of the latter an hour or so beto! clock, With calms and putty winds, the Comet, we!l up to windward, Was abreast ihe peacon at the entrance of Bridgepo Harbe Neur-de-Lis just passed Blac her staysail The Sadie, others of the smnailer eratt in ine van, While the Cite held her own and Whitewing and other conortable boats were if Way astern, looking, tf the wind rematned so Hight, as 11 they would inake a night of tt on the stretch of water. From this time until f ‘clock there was hardly air enough tow candle, When it again fresh- ened, and from this t the work was merry enough, considering the vexation and an- hovances of tle many Hours before, Running by ridgepo that harbor presented an animated and beaurit sight, as it was dotted with nau ikerable pleusnre cratt, whose owners had been § 1 irom Loe steam and heat of the city tor a 4 ast SiX O'clock the Comet squared ew Haven, and dropped anchor ta Mor- Tis Cove, where she found that many of the sloops had preceded her, Toe Fleur-de-Lis followed hall an bour later; but it wa even o'clock before the Whitewing came to anchor, The Recreation w: found tying here awaiting the fleet, and will pr coed to Greenport Witt Che yactts to-morrow, where the Madeicine is lying. ‘The Kate was left at Glen Cove, but will soon jom the yachts. “YACHTING NOTES, ‘The following passed Whitestone yesterday :— Yaciit Columbia, N. ., Mr. L.
