Shortly after uine pelock the spacious rooms were completely thronuged, And when General Newton, accompanied by Mr, Lam- mis, president of the association, appeared, bis presence was grected with the heartiest toiens of wel- tome. The pleasure of tho occasion was enbanced by Appropriate music, and, aliogether, the event savored of an enthusiastic ovation, When the applause which the appearance of General Newton evoked hud sub- Sided Mr, Lummis sa:d:— Is ia my privilege, General Newton, on behalf of this Association, to welcome you this evening us Our hon- Ored guest, and to express to you the congratulations Of our members upon the majuiticeat success whien Das crowned your javors for the removal of ove of tho eliet obstructions of the harbor of New York, Your Work will make a lasting impression upon the future Of this great metropolis. Constituting also, as it do gbal advance in engineering, it will take its place as an historic achievement, promising to result here- after ia improved commercial facilities and greater se- curity of life and property in the rivers and harbors of the world. Beyond the iuimediate improve Meat resuling ‘im our own waters it cn- abies the citizens of New York to anticipate a8 no longer remote a period when ail the barriers of our harbor will have been successtuily removed, and when an unobstructed zone of navigable water will bring into sate and protitable employment the entire Bircuit of our shores, You have demonstrated by tho successtul accomplishment of what mught be Talled a gr scientific experiment (although you were never doubtiul of its issue), two Priuciples of incalculable importance:—The ability of science in the rst place to control the Most powerlul expiosives and to employ with eatety their tremendous forces tor works. of peace and the Protection of life and property. In the second place, he possibility by a pian origival in such an apphea- Mon of destroying vatural obstructions beneatu the ‘Water as eflectively as upon land. The saie handling in Such enormous quantities of those violent explosives, Bnd the instantaneous and thorough destruction vy their agency of a granite reef many feet in thickness and three ucres in extent, with scarcely a jar to sur- Founding property, are feats unsurpassed in the annais vf eng‘neeriug. “The great result required, as we know, a long and tedious process of preparation. Seveu yeurs Lave elapsed since ihe commencement of the excavations. You were met at the outset by strong opposition from apprebensive property holders, Who must pow exult in their own defeat; discourage: Ments of many kinds, delays, grave anxieties and per- sonal perils attended your undertaking to theend. 1 have called it an experiment. Although the calcula. ions of scie..ce assured you throughout of its periect Ubeoretic practicability, yet, at a time when there ‘were few who shared your conviciions, when this com- manity displayed utier wdiflerence aud apaihy, when you saw beiore you, it you entered upon the path, Years of toil und anxious care, when you could Hot but anticipate a thousand possible mischances. When you understood the stake of property, of life and reputation which for you and your associates would depend upon the hazard of the result—it would seem to have required rare courage and fidelity to science and oilicial duty (o propose and to complete a work Btteuded by no personal remaueration, ‘The story of the concluding days we all kuow well. It ws 4 tale of the highest scientific heroisin, Imminent danger exceeding that of the battle-tield constantly encompassed you.

Happy is that nation which | os- Beases and cherishes such benefactors! 1 speak of Men Of practical seience. Science is 4 mighty instru- meut of good or evil. A vast responsibility rests pon those who seek it that they may dispense it to Dihers. In the nature of things, itis impossible for the Multitude tu detect the fallacies of errors promulgated In its name. It 1s a noble mission to bo the instrument df science, as you ure, for cnds conducive to the wel- Yare of your race, butto misemploy it—to teach from Atscbair of truth pernicious speculations, and to array: its forces for the destruction instead of’ the safety of Society—these are base ambitions deserving tho repro- Dation of mankind. We offer you, then, General New- ton, our congratulatious, aud we thank you Jor this opportunity aflorded us for their ‘ex- Pression. ‘or dO we forget to congratulate and thauk all who were associated with you. You have tonlerred a great benetit upon this metropolis, in the works whicu you are further to execute, and whose tainty of success! has beev detmonstrated by your te achievement, you will prepare jor the city of New York sacilities of access and of harbor trout adequate to the commercial future which the vigorous popula- Mon and tho natural resourees of this country caunot Dut insure. With the grateful acknowledgments of this community we unite, then, our warmest expres- Bions of appreciation. Yot we recognize the great un- dertaking which woe celebrate to-nignt, and those which are to follow, as works of public value and im- Portance, deserving not tleeting words of eulogy and compliment, but a just and cuduring recognition, (Loud applause.) Mr Lummis then stated that letters had been re- ceived trom Cardinal McCloskey, Mr. A. A. Low and others, rogrettiug their inability to be present. GENERAL NEWTON'S REMARKS. On rising to respond General Newton was feceived with a general borst of approbation. He said:—It would he on insuflicient tribute to your cordial reception not to confess myself gratified and fven overcome by the honor conferred upou me, but It would be mecorrect to say that tue generous sentiments which you have expressed have at all surprised me; this, indecd, woul! argue on wy part, an unpardonable’ ignorance of the spirit) which aviunates the — uasociation over ‘Which you preside.

A private letter trom Augusta, Ga., to a Providenee gentleman contains a touching parrative of heroism in fever-stricken Savannah, which ought to have a wide | publication as an impressive illustration of the noblest attributes of human nature. The writer is explaining that some business delay is caused by the grievous family affliction of an assistant, and goes on to say:— ‘The death of a young brother, in Savannah, Monday morning, has thrown uis whole family into tho deepest grief—a young fellow, not much more than a boy, who martyred himself for the good of the peuple suffering with the yellow fever, and himself fella victim. He was prescription clerk ‘in Lippman’s drug store thero, and when tbe fever broke out the whole force loft but the bookkeeper avd him. A little later the bookkeeper leit, and Charley ran the whole thing hinself, ull Lippman ordered him, by letter, to close the store. Then, instead of ‘coming home, as his people kept begging him to do, he replied no.’ He feitit was his duty to stay, and he went to work in Clay's drug store, putting up prescriptions, hundreds per day; no time to rest, no time for dinner. Clay took the fever amd Churley nursed him, but he died. Chartey still ran the store, His cook took the fever; he nursed her, and sho recovered, Then a young friend, Symons; be nursed him and got him up, run- ning the store all the time, day and night. He wrote his mother:—*‘I have to get something to eut the best way Lean, My cook isdown, 1 have no time for my- self, putting up prescriptions all d When night comes I am go tired I can hardly put one foot before the other. lbave not had my clothes off ina week, and I have not brushed my hair in four days.” This although ordinarily he was extremely neat and caretul ot bis person. 1t sounds like old army times. At last, when Symons was up, Charley took sick, He wrote that he had taken’ the fever, but was fecl- ing pretty etrong and was confident of soon being up and at work again, ‘Telegrams tben began to pass ten or twenty a day, “Charle improving, with good care’he will come through. all right,” and everything looked hopetul, when iil at once’ “Charley is worse,” and be bogan to sink, Symons nursing bim in his turn and keeping up con- slant correspondence with Augusm by telegraph, Finally telegrams could be passed with difficulty, the telegraph boys re!using to carry tho mossages in Sa- vannah, It was the worst quarter tn the whole city. The last two telegrams received {rom Symons were: “I will stick to him to the lust’? “I shall not sleep to-night.” And the brave young fellow kept lis word; they both died the samo night, Symous bad never fully recovered and wore himself out waiting on his friend. They were two brave boys, were they not? Does it make any difference which side or whieb flag such souls fought for twelve years agoy Can't you reuch out and shake hands over any distance? Charley was brave soul. I could not belp mourning bis he ought not to regret that he stayed; and my esteem for him is ¢o great that my little boy, now lour years old, whose name before was only arthur, is now Charies Arthur; and didn’t Ido rignt? His is'2 vame that ought never to die, and it wili live forever some- where, CHARGED WITH EMBEZZLEMEN THE ADVENTURES OF A CLERK AND HIS CHUM— HIS TERMINATION, Henry D, Pollard, aged twenty-two years, was em- ployed by C. 'f, Raynolds & Co, dealers in paints and oils, of Nos, 106 and 103 Fulton street, as Custom House clerk. His salary was $14 a week. On Satur- day last he was sent to pay duties at the Custom House on certain imported stock snd for that purpose re- colved $528 28, A portion of the moncy wasin gold certificates and the rest in current notes of exchange. Young Pollard did not discharge his errand, but meet- ing a chum ot his, named John C. Burke, of Underhill avenue, Brooklyn, they determined to go on & carouso together, preparatory to visiting the Centennial, The gold certiticates were ex- changed for greenbacks, and, after investing in suite of fall clothing, eluding overcoats, together with scarf pins, sleeve buttons, a satchel, &c., they agreed to put up tor the night at tho-West Sido Hotel, corner of Sixteenth street and Sixth ave- nue. Tosecure the money against loss a large share of 1b Was given to the bartender of the establishment for sate keeping. Next day the youog men travelled about the city and saw the sights. In the meantime the ight of Pollard was reported to Captain Murray, vl the Fourth precinct, and Detective Musgrave was detalied to bunt up the fugitive. He succeeded jn tracicg him to Brooklyn, where he saw him m company with Burke, aud subsequently tracked him to the West Side Hotei, in thiscity, Detective Butts, of the Brooklyn poliee, captured Burke. The prisoners were yesterday taken before Justice Morgan at the Tombs Police Court, where they were jointly ch: with complicity in em- bezzling the money above stated, The Court held them in $1,000 bail, each, to answer. Tho prisoners aro both intelligent young men and very respectably con- neeied, While ‘in court Pollard gave up $200 which be bad concealed in his stocking, Burke denied that ho knew the moncy had been stolen. — Pollard’s residence 1s No. 305 Schermerhorn street, Brooklyn, HEMPSTEAD RESERVOIR.
