Not eniy have they safely brought their own arms from the peaceful battle ground of Dollymount, but they came Back to us crowned with the laurels of victory which their skill, perseverance rve have enabled them ‘to wrest from the best riflemen of Europe. From the time when (he team first set foot on the City of Chester's deck they have enjoyed a round of vations such as falls to the lot of few people The voy- age out was a most pleasant one No member of the team suffered from the pains of sea sickness except- ng Mr. Coleman, The run across on the Chester ‘was so agreeable as to admit the team and those who ‘were with them to Indulge their esthetic tastes in get- tung up adramatic concert, of which the following is | ‘the programme :— 1.

The conditions of —_ shooting cepting that the target used in the later contest was what is how well known under the name of the new Wimbledon model, It was understood that if an American won the Abercorn cup he would have a cup ‘equal in value given to him instead; but, if only FIRST AMONG WIS OWN TRAM, then he was to have a cup valued at $126.’ This match is every year of great importance to Irish riflemen, as t rise and empires tumble to pieces, but the universal liberty which obtain im America endure forever. This, above. all else, was what the people of Ireland admired and reverenced, and Colonel Gildersteeve, with that keen perception of a man of the world which distinguishes bim, was not slow in giving credit to his Irish entertainers ‘for honoring, in the persons of the team, those liberal institutions enjoyed in the great Republic which he and his fellow marksmen so well represented, TO WIMBLEDON. On the 9th of July Lord Wharni President of the British National Hifte Aeseciation, Wrote to Colonel Gildersleeve inviting the Americans to shoot on the 17th at Wimbledon against a team of eight, to be preked from the English, Irish and Scotch teams who would contend for the Elcho Shield, The American team very natu- rally declined this unfair and one-sided proposition. Mr. Parsons, adjutant of the English eight, bad also written to the captain of the American team, in the same sense, About this time Dr, Hamilton wrote to the Standard his opinion of the American riflemen in f the following words:— “I have shot against the American team both in the United States and Ireland. I can say with confidence there never has been any team in this country able to beat them. I don’t mean we have not as good individual shots, but their organi is simply perfect. scipline will beat superior individual strength im such contésts. The mem- bers of the American team have shot together for over a year. If one member by accident gets off the target another is able at once to put him on again. Colone! Gildersleeve has assured me that the men obey him in the minutest trifle, In America the Irish made a higher score than the best they ever made for the El- cho Shields, and yet, although it is true by accident, were beaten. The following week, when competing for indi- vidual prizes, they made fifty-two points more than the Americans over the same course. The Irish score at Doilymount on June 29 was again better than any they ever made for the Elcho Shieids, while the Americans averaged 161.16, which is higher than the best individual score ever made at Wimbledon. Yet in the Abercorn Cup match for the selection of the Irish eight six Irish- men headed the list, the Americans following at long intervals,” While correspondence was going on detween the Americans and the Wimbledon authorities the team reached Glasgow, Scotland, on the 10th of July, It was Unought that the riflemen of old Caledonia would have been at home to extend the customary courtesy to our marksmen. Singularly enough, it happened, however, that the Scotch team had started for Wimbledon just before the Americans arrived in Scotland, and nobody turned up to do the honors in their stead. After seeing Glasgow and the interesting, historic regions in the Highlands around Loch-Lomond, the team set out for “Auld Reekie,” Scotland's picturesque capital—that once was, Here they were hospitabl: entertained by Mr. Robeson, the American Consul. Three or four daye were spent yery agreeably in visiting places of historic interest about Edin- burgh. The Calton Hill, with Dugald Stewart’s and Burns’ monuments; the Castle of Endinburgh, with “Mons Meg,”’ and Scotland’s neglected regalia; Arthur's Seat, with’ the “Cowden Kowes;? Holyrood Palace and the spot where fell Rizzio, the unfortunate favorite of the beautiful but il-starred Mary Stuart—all were scenes that had been made more famous by the un- rivalled pen of Scott than by the traditions which the; commemorated, and were well worthy of being visite The team left Scotland for London on the 14th and reached the modern Babel the next evening. Here everything was new to them and a couple ‘of days were spent to advantage in seeing the numerous sights about e British metropolis, of which every one has heard. THE MEETING AT WIMBLEDON was greatly interfered with by the almost constant rain that fell nearly every day while the shooting lasted. It a was announced that the American riflemen, in their individual capacities, would shoot” for the St Leger Sweepstakes on the 17th, the competitors who make the eight best scores in it leand England as well. as. this country anxionsly form the Irish team for the Elcho Shield contest at Wimbledon, ‘The Irish contestants numbered thirty- seven, against eight of the Americans, Dakin being al sent.’ The day was extremely cold and disagreeable, The match, which commenced late, was still unfinished at nightfall, and bad to be resumed on tho following morning, At the conclusion it was found in the first day’s shooting’ two Americans—Gildersieeve and Ful- ton—had second and third places in the five best scores recorded, and Yale, Coleman, Bodine and Bruce took position in the next nine best records. In the second day’s firings six Irishmen head the list, and Fulton, Gildersieeve and Bodine occupy seventh, eighth and ninth places, respectively, The following are some of the aggregate svores :— NEW YORK AMATEUR RIFLE CLUR. 800 900 1,000 Grand Names, Yards, Yards.

This contest, it appears, was shot at four dis- tances, 800, 900, 1,000 and 1,100 yards, ten shots at each range. Three ranges were shot over, and the eompetition at 1,100 yards had to be put off for a second @ay on account of lateness of the hour.

EN + 743 ‘This preliminary trial of skill was made by the Ameri- cans on the 17th of June, under the most onfavorable circumstances possible. ‘It rained hard and blew half a gale during the shooting, so that the team had a most | ‘npleacant initiatory visit to the scene of their subse- In consequence of this first essay of selling in New York showed public opmion inclining toward the belief that they | ‘would be defeated. Bets were frecly made on the | Basis of 100 to 80 and 100 to 84 in favor of the Irishmen. One John Hardy, “late Captain Commandant Twelfth Cheshire Rifle Volunteers,” in 4 communication from England to the Belfast News Letter, eapiently said, after | §nforming the public that he is in the habit of burning “upward of 2.000 rounds per annum,” that “anuch can | be done by friendly and generous hospitality; and, | while I firmly belicve that the Irieh tear will got tne Best of the match, let our friends go home pleased with their reception in the old country.” In their subsequent practice shootings the Ameri- ans did some work which soon wrought a change in ‘the people’s minds, and New Yorkers were not wanting who accepted wagers at par upon their countrymen. — | During the intervals between preliminary and prac- | tice matches the teain were treated toa round of fetes and feastings that rivalled each other in beanty ‘nd brilliancy.

We have seen that some mysterious power stepped in to prevent a match for the’ proffered Lloyd’s Cup be- tween the British, Irish and American teains; perhaps it is not too greata stretch of the imagination to sup- pose that the English were undesirous of meeting the Americans, unless the chances were greatly in favor of the former. The odds against onr men could onl have been obtained by allowing the Britis! to choose a team from their own two and The Americans saw through this little game and declined to be entrapped into it. The } Americans wanted to shoot, if not in the Elcho Shield match, at least alongside with the teams engaged in the competitions, The British declined throwing open the Ekho Shield match or to allow the “Yankees’’ to shoot alongside, so that the scorer of our men could be com- pared wiih those of the Wimbledon people.

An offer of this kind ought not to have been ac- cepted, and the form in which it camawas doubtless the reason why Dakin, Bodine and Yale declined to enter the competition for it, There can be no question but if Colonel Giids and the rest of the American team who shot in the match had seen the matter in the same wht that they, Wo, would have followed the example of id Reliable’ and the others. ‘he conditions upon which the cup was offered were unusually severe tests of marksmanship—ihirty shots at 1,000 yards.

DETACHMENTAL RIFLE PRACTICE—FAIR WEATH- ER—POOR SHOOTING. The Fifth brigade, Second division, Brooklyn, com- pleted its military ball practice for the seagon at Creed- moor yesterday.

The Fourteenth was represented by com_ panies H, B and Pp, sixty men, commanded by Lieu. tenant Brennan, Captain Fagan, Inspector, and the Twenty-eighth battalion, © company _—&, twenty-three men, Lieutenant Kaseman com- manding, Captain Hurdt, Inspector. Major Michael, of the Fourteenth regiment, commanded the battalion; Colonel Farley was detailed as surgeon and Lieutenant Cotts acted as adjutant, The Thirteenth regiment qualified twenty-six men, the Fourteenth twenty-six and the Twenty-cighth eleven men, The only case of disobedience of orders occurred in the ‘Thirteenth rogiment; six privates, led by a corporal, attempted to leave the field, but their action was ob- served and they were placed under arrest, the corporal being stripped of his chevrons, One of the officers, while the men were retiring from the 300 yards range to the 400 yards range, fired at the targets and narrowly escaped hitting one of the sentries.

INVESTIGATION OF A MADHOUSE NARRATIVE OF HORRORS—THB NURSES DENY THE STORY. ‘The investigation of the alleged abuses complained of by Mr. Nelson Magee, late patient at the Kings County Lanatie Asylum, was resumed before the Board of Com- missioners of Charities yesterday. Mr. Magee testified that he saw Mr. Morales slapped in the face by both Henry and George, the nurses, for not moving more rapidly with his pail to clean up in the morning. Wit- ness also saw James Dunn beaten by the nurses. A patient named Lapham is kept confined continually in his room except when it is necessary to clean {b, although Lapham is kept in straps and his eccentricities are exhibited to favorite visitors, witness never saw anything violent about the man; the eccentri- cities of several other patients are also ex- posed to visitors; one other patient whose ame witness never could learn was also kept contin- ously in the torture known as the straps: these trans- actions were all between the 16th and 27th of Jul; patient named William E. Robinson was beaten by the morsea, but witness was afraid to tell the doctors of the occurrence; witness overheard an ob- seene remark made by George Bochmeyer, one of the nurses, reflecting on his (witness’) wife; subsequently he reprimanded Bochmeyer for the gross insult; this act of the witness was resented by the two nurses forcing him into the back hall; in doiig #0 they kicked and struck him, and called another pa- tient, named Lyons, to assist them; Lyons urged him to submit, lest the nurses should kill him; finally he was carried bodily into the back room; Henry choked him and called bim an Irish » striking him repeatedly about tho head and face; James Dunn urged them not to kill him; they then, with the assistance of Frank Lavell, who was also a nurse, thrust him into a jacket, and kicked him in the stomach; Bochmeyer strack witness again, and, placing his arms across hie stomach, made them fast behind his back; in the operarion ho struck him in the back with such force that he still feels the pain from it; he bled freely from the mouth and nose from the effect of the beating; the brutal blows were ro- peated while witness was wiping the blood trom his , and the vilest epithets were used by the nurse; when he complained that the jacket was so tight! thas he could’ scarcely breathe, Henry said’ “f don't want you to breathe, you Irish ; PU murder you Defore you get out; the window was closed and he suffered greatly from the heat; there was a welt three inches thick about his body in the morning when the jacket was unlaced; a pationt told him that he had bee: pt im a straight Jacket once for fourteen days: forty-eight houra later Dr. Whitling came into the ball and ordered his release; witness was detained a week longer in the asylum was necessary in order to give the bruises time to rosy before leaving; It ae occurred to as hae Far fommissioners bd 6 proper ns commit is Sto! to, as woul aing We wae telling a madman’s ory, 2 ~ George Bochmeyer, one of the nurses of hall No. 8, testified he had been five years and six months e ployed there; twenty years ago he had served two years ag nurse at the asylum; came there from the insane asylum at Flushing; served in Bloomingdale asylum also for a year and’ nine months; Magee was assigned twice to the care of witness; the first’ time Magee came under witness? care he behaved very well; the _second time he came to the fiall he was more excited; he used to play generally like a child with tho patients; while pened acimsitatiniiiee Wan ‘talking all the’ time wens & drink of milk, and the, witness said once, “If you or I ‘want some milk we will have to go to our old woman to get it;” two hours after that remark.was made Magee went to Henry and saifl that he wanted satisfaction out of me for saying that; witness asked him what he wanted to fight for, and'the complainant remarked that he would take it out of somebody; witness said then that he should go into the back Hall and quiet down; he refused to obey tho nurses, and they took hold of him and had “to call two men to assist them, a8 Magee was “like a little lion” im put- ting the jacket on the complainant the latter resisted and ‘bucked” them with his head; after a great struggle they succeeded in putting the jacket on him, and then left him; nobody struck Magee to the witness’ knowledge; there was no blood on Magee’s face; the following morning Magee told the witness | that the jacket was so tight he couldn’t sleep, and he | loosened it for him; witness said he was fifty-eight years of age, and, thongh he had been eleven years Lg this was the first complaint ever entered against im. Mr. Magee cross-examined tho witness, and the lat- ter, in answer to the questions put him, replied that he had never been a patient ina lunatic asylum; Mrs. Ma- ee demanded her hosband’s discharge; witness said, lenry called me ont of the room where a lady was with a patient, Mr. Moralis; I ordered yon into the back hall; Henry and I both took hold of you because you were too strong for us; you could not escape from us because we called two Other men up to assist us; you tried to strike Henry; as far ae I know, your arms were going I did not call you a damned Irish Imay ve a good friend with whom I may use such an ex- ression a8 @ joke, such as he may call me a damned atchman; while I was going to put the straight jacket on you I called in others to help; I said to the other keepers you were the strongest man I had in the hall; as soon as I had put on the jacket I went to the doctor and told him I had put on the jacket, and if his wife should come he might let her up or not; but Magee was excited; they never let them up when’ they have the straight jacket’ on; there are some who have the jacket on the whole year, and their friends may’ seo them; the jacket is not continually on the whole year; there are some patients who tear their clothes and ticks and destroy everything; they are vicious patients, and that is the reason why the jacket is put on. Henry Eilenhoffer and Frank Lazell, two experienced nurses, also testified in contradiction of the statement of Mr, Magee. Dr. Blanchard testified that he was medical superin- tendent of the asylum; had never heard of any cases of abuse of patients since his connection with the insti- tution; he had heard nothing of Mr. Magee’s grievances until the discharge of that gentleman; when complaints were made, it was his invariable custom to investigate them immediately, The further examination was adjourned till ten o’clock this forenoon.
