It wai a grand succeos and its pleasure; will live long in the memories of the excursionists. Thus much by way of preface. At an early hour in the morning a continuous Btream of gaily dreesed females, froliccomo children and SI'IKIT OF THE LOCAL PRESS. The suburban press cries aloud for more railroads. Tbe other day we quoted an Island paper sb demanding a "crosstown road." Now the Flatbush Rural asks for increased accommodation If not steam, horse cars, and if not those, stages BAtLBOAD WANTS.

Tho discontinuance of the horse railroad between this village and Gravesend, last Winter, was a serious inconvenience to the residents of Flatlauda. and in fact to those who resldo along tho whole length of the road aud tho question is often asked, why it failed The cause, it us, was simply because its managers aid not extend It through to Ooney Island as originally contemplated, but suffered it to terminate in tho village of Gravesend, from which point to Coney Island, a distance of one mile, thoro was no regular communication. This could have boon remedied in part by running a line of stages from tho depot 'to Coney Island. If those having it in charge had done so, and then connected it with either of the lines to Williamsburgb, bo as to open a direct route from Greenpoint and Willlamsburgh to Coney Island, passing Prospect Park, and through the villages of Flatbush, Flatlands, and Gravesend, it would have proved to its stockholders a profitable invoBtment in Btead of a miserable failure. Ib there not enough of vitality left in this enterprise, and sufficient spirit among the people to resuscitate and render remunerative this public necessity ANNEXATION.

East New York divides the press just over the border. Tho Sentinel is at issue with its local contemporary and says: Tho agitation for annexation to Brooklyn has already been attended with important results. This agitation began with tho call of Town Officers for a meeting of citizens to determine on a suitable site for a town hall. Tho first town meeting adjourned without definite action; but the second meeting, which was held on tho 6th June, and which was largely attended, resolved unanimously that a water supply was more imprr taut than a Town Hall, and that the erection of the Town Hall be postponed until a water supply Bhould be secured. At this meeting the Committee of Nino was appointed, whose duty it was to confer with the Brooklyn Board of Aldermen, and ascertatn the TEBMS OP ANNEXATION, with tbe view of submitting a definite proposition to the people of the town, for or against annexation.

A more or.en, frank and manly course could not have been adoi ted, and a moro orderly and deliberative meeting of citizens never was held in East New York than that of the 6th of June. Tho opponents of annexation represented by Messrs, G. A. F. North and C.

W. Hamilton, opposed the annexation resolutions with their well known ability and readine3s of speech. But despite their utmost opposition, tbe annexation resolutions whioh had been introduced by Mr. C. B.

Millor, and seconded by Mr. Gilliam Schenck, were passed by a decisive majority. The resolutions of the numerously attended town meeting of the 6th June, not only gave expression to tho voice of the people in favor of annexation, but the Committee of Nine were Instructed to use their best endeavors to obtain an immediate supply of Ridgewood water for fire purposes, thereby relieving the taxpayers from hi2h and exorbitant insurance rates, which they are now compelled to pay. At the very moment of victory in tho hour of triumph the Committee of Nine received a fatal blow from an unlooked for quarter. They wero assailed by one of their number, who tells the Brooklyn Aldermen that TBE COMMITTEE OF NINE IS A FEAUD; that the resolutions in favor of annexation were never fairly passed by the meeting that adopted them, and ANTED GIRL TO DO GENERAL housework, at 8P9 Grand av.

I told you in my last letter that we were bock in our mountain home. Our party is smallerand quieter than laat year, but more are coming, and we shall no doubt be merry enough bofore the long Sum mer is over. We have visited another quarry since I wrote you, and the road to It was not really perpendicular, neither was the quarry np in the sky, but it might Q3 well have been. It would have been about as accessible, Fancy looking out the back of your buggy, DOWN 200 FEET upon the village you have Just passod through, your horee on a level with the top of your oarriage, at an angle of forty flye, every nerve Btralned to keep the buggy from pulling bitn backward, and yourself bear ing Instinctively forward and sitting very lightly. What with patient toiling and frequent resting we reached the qaarry at last and saw thorn drilling the marble by steam power with diamonds thore's a sensible occupation for the precious things.

Then we Baw a load of marble (I forget how many tons) go down this same steep path by which we had come up, witU oxen yoked behind to hold it back, and to see the poor things stretch their necks and plant their feet and slide reluctantly behind that load would make you more will ing to go down, even as we camo, in almost as big a hurry as Mark Twain came down Vesuvius, and with little more ceremony. Some fine morning I hopo to see in New York City the much talked of Drexol Bank, and pleasantly will I remember aB I look admiringly upon its marble facade THE FAMOUS QUA.BBY IN POBSBX whenco It was taken. Julius made one of our party for ten days, and while he was here we made the most of our time. Iwico we took an afternoon drive on a sort of exploring expedition. Both times tbe setting sun and gathering shadows turned our faces homeward and gave us just enough of twilight among the mountain forests.

The song birdB twitter their Bloepy lullab'es far, far above you In the tallest trees you hear the soft singing of tho mountain brook, that was lost in the mingled sounds of the daylight, you look anxiously ahead to Bee if tho road is clear bofore you, Bpeaking low and looking scarchingly to this side and to that sa rustles a snake or hops a bird among tho brakes that line the pathway. Yon urge your horse forward, but he is cautious and will step only as fast as he can with perfect safety. What a senso of relief comes wheu at last you strike the village turnpike and leave tho black woods behind. Then yon can jog along a comfortable gait and enjoy the twilight. But talk no more yo pleasure scokcrs, of Adirondacs, mention not Yo Semite, until you have been to kelly's.

WilLyou go with me Then fancy yourself in a valley between two huge mountains, with a third mountain, at whose base you stand, rising between them and before you. Grand 1 1b the word that rises to your lips. Behind you the busy mills and the last vestfge of habitation, before you a narrow, winding path, that soon shuts off the mills and leaves you alone with the forest trees, that rise higher and higher behind, before and beside you, till the only bit of Bky to be Been is directly overhead. You can see tho path but a few rods before jou, and there it seems lost in the mountains or out off abruptly by the roaring stream that 1b close on your right hand, so close that you can sit in your wagon and throw your line into the trout holes as you drive, while with tbo other hand outstretched you can pick theharo bell and wild raspberry that hang over your path on the mountain side. It is a wild, enchanting spot, and makes your very bou! expand with wonder and with admiration.

Madly rushes the torrent over the rocks, with all the impetus of falling water, and all the fury that obstruction lends it. Great tree? come drifting down, dashing themselves despairingly against tho stone diking that projects the road, then whirling away to join other driftwood, and form temporary dams with which tho rapids will struggle till it carries them on again. Well is it named the THB BOABING BBAN0H, and long may it roar. Now we must cross a bridge, and leaving our mountain stream a little to the loft, lost for a while to sight, but not to the ear, we find our path winds on and ever winds the trees on each Bide now and the rising mountain still before. Mosses and ferns and wild flowers nod aud whisper around above usandhangsweeingly down from rocks almost over our very heads.

Suoh mosses, such ferns, it never was my fortune to dream of. Mosses long, fe almost ethereal. Ferns like trees for size, bending their long swooping branches of leaves to the slightest brseee. Here to the right dlrergos a path. It leads to the "South Forks," famous for its trout.

But we are going to "Kelly's," so keep on to the left and peer ahead, for we hear something coming. Here la a party coming down. Now how shall wo pass them 7 They have Btopped and turnod in close under the mountain, and we have Just room between them and the bank of the stream which 1b roaring and tumbling sgatn uesldo ua. What if a wheel' should go too near tbe bank there's ten or fifteen foot of rooks between us and the foaming rapid3 Caution, breathless caution is tho word, and with it we manage to pass, hoping as we froely breathe the air of safety again, we Bhall not meet another team, but further on there oomea another, and marking a widening spot in the road wa stand and let them pass, and thus, after meeting two or three and watching for oonvenient pianos to stand or pass them, we become quite fearless and accomplished mountaineers. The road stiU winds on and upward, but so gradually and so beautifully wild that you scarcely perceive your increasing altitude, until you look to the Btream still dashing past, and know that it must be going down hill in good earnest, and presently you feel the cooler air, and here at last on a high plateau, olearod of trees and shrubs, the road widens, you have level ground around you, and after passing a desorted mill and a fewtenantless houses, you come at last to the comfortable looking tavern known as Kelly's.

The namB Is inappropriate now, aB no suoh man as Kelly has owned it or lived there for years. Bnt long ago it belonged to its present namesake, and has continued to bear his name through all its ohanges of proprietor ship. Gnats were numerous, and of moqaities there was no lack; but with good nature and ammonia we met them fearlessly. After a good game in the ball alley, at which I beat Julius fairly, although he tried very hard to persusde me that hia soore Btood oven with mine, we toofe tbe fishing polos, which our host was kind enough to lend, because we were stupid enough to leave our own at home, and away we ma.rob.ed to find THE LOST POND. Little George D.

was our guide eleven only, but old enough for our purpose. Makes a show ot finding yon good fishing ground, baits your hook and sots you fishing in an excellent spot, where the trout aro not, and quietly walks off with the rest of the bait ia his pociot to a hole he knows of. Presently we get discouraged, not a bito except from (he gnats, and think to venture out a ways and try our luok farther up stream, but lo, boy and bate are missing, then follows "Hollo 1 Again the whistle coming nearer and patiently we Bit and wait, 'till presently my lad comes crashing through the underbrush, innocently inquiring how many fish we'vo caught, displaying at the same time half a dozen gasping beauties at the bottom of his basket and tolling us we Bhall scare all the fish if we hallo bo loudly. Well, he played us that little game of his, did George, and we resolved to beat him at it. Wo said we didn't like that spot and wero going up Btream, and moreover, we wanted him to stay in sight or leave us the bait He preferred staying in sight and we preferred he should, for to bait a hook with a wriggling angleworm was not among the things I took either pride or pleasuro In doing, and Julius didn't oare to havo the slimy things crawling round in his pooket.

So George once moro took the lead and wo followed determinedly, finding ourselves not uufroquontly a poor match for his agile fleetness. Now among the fern and brakes neckbigb, then striding from Btono to stone, or on fallen trees across tho strips of swamp that lay in ou? path.) Now over etnmpa and through the brush that swept our faoo and caught our hair, and defied us at every Btep. Now waiting one side for A P03MIDABLE ASDBB to get well out of sight, now by tho water's edge and out upon the moBB grown rookB, and aorosa the brook where it la shallowest to a better position under ths shady trees. Here in cool shade and where the water is motionless, Master George's line touohesthe water lightly berore us, scarco causing a ripple. With finger on lip and solemn shake ot bead, he warns us to be silent, while his graceful poise and steady hand betokens tho fisherman of skill.

Never does his line ge: entangled, never does his pole Bpls.su the water, but noiselessly falls the hook and slowly settles, and ere it roaches tho bottom the sudden jerk, followed by the steady swing, lands ye trout, all speckled and shining, on the grass beside us. Meanwhile Julius has slipped from his rook and taken aa impromptu bath knee high, whtoh has somewhat oooled his enthusiasm, and I have exhausted both my patience and my pantomimlo powers (not to mention a wrinkle hawk In my dress), in trying to get assistance without making a noise, my hook being fastened to the highest limb of my sheltering tree, where it took refuge when I cast out my line. Oh, ye people who think It so easy to oatoh fishes, I can tell you TBOTJT ABB BAD THINGS TO PBAOTIOE ON. Returning to the botel we exousod ourselves, aud encouraged eaoh othor by Baying it was the wrong time of day, of course we should have oome early in the morping, and sarcastically boasting of our wonderful luck, we bade our smiling host adieu and start od for homo. About half way down the mountain, we thought we saw a chance of retriving our obaracters as fishermen, and baiting our hook woll with greenbacks, we were soon tho possessors of about fifty lovely fish a good day's work Rafter all, as wo made them believe at home, and next morning had a royal breakfast on the fish that somebody caught and may you all havo tho same good luck.

Hanis, land. The following tracredy is said to bo tho only one of itB kind recorded in English history. The consequences of the general self immolation of bereaved women will occur to cvory roadcr. Tho elimination sf the widow as a social quantity is BUggeetlve, not to say stariUng Adenth latoly occurred in Brighton, England, of a character heretofore unknown on English sou. A woman immolated hercelf npon the altar of affection for her deceased hnBband, nnder too mut peouur uir cnmBtaccos.

Moses Sraneman, a very wealthy merchant, during his many mercantile expeditions visited Malabar. Here ha feU in love with a native woirmn, ana kivi uor presence of tie British Consul. At the end of six months after the marriage, he took hta wife to Eng. land, and into his homo at Brighton. Tho young wife clung to all the customs of hornativeland, and ref uod most perBiBicuiij church.

She bad a kind of temple built on her husband's estate in the country and went into it every day to offer up her dovotion according to the ritei of her own faith. At length hor husband died. The widow appeared to suffer the most intense agony of sonl. She looked upos. tho corpce, and threw herself on the life lnoo form of her husband with terrible ronzy of de spair.

She wrenched ont her hair, tore her clothes and disfltured her beant'fnl features with her nails. On the' evening after the funeral of her husband she disappeared. After three days' unsuccessful search for her, the servants bethought themselves of looking into her temple, and had a presentiment that something terrible had happened to her. They did not find the woman, but they found a heap of achas still smoking, and the smell of burned flesh. She had evidently built her funeral pyro and immolated horself thereon.

Upon searching among the ashes they found portions of human remains, whiGh, together with tho peoullar odor omitted, BatiBfled them of the fato of tho poor woman. GREELEY AND BROWN.

Particnlars of tho Latest Proposed Duel in Now York Tbe Correspondence That Led to Nothing. The Code is nearly obsolete in this oouniry, even at ihe South.

Thoro was a time, however, wnou men who felt hurt as to their honor wore accustomed to claim bloody satisfaction not only in the warmer section of tho country, but at the cooler North. Now Yorkers woro onco a fighting people. The Hamilton Burr affair will be recalled as a representative histor fca duelling case, and readers of Theodore Fay's old rcmance, "Hoboken," will have some Idea of how such deadly meetings were managed, and of tho painful associations of tbe placo from which the novel takes its nomo. Nobody will regret that early and blood thirty age. Everybody will be pleased to know that the lato attempt to revive old time customs wholly failed.

We already referred to tho challenge that passed between certain persons who respectively attacked and defendod tho reputation of the late General Meagher. Below ia tho hostile correspondence in full. It will be found not without interest. It Is hardly neeescary to call attention to the Balicnt "points," which, now that the quarrel is peacefully ended, it is to be feared some persons with a lively senso of humor, will incline to laugh at. Let us be glad that the issue of the affair provokes no more sorious omotion, and let us rejoice that the generals and colonels and captains and editors aro Bafely relieved from what might hare bean an embaraBdng position had they all been locked up tn iail for a violation of law.

Oencral Mullen's card ia as follows On the 28th a copy of the Fifth Avenue Journal, dated 29th, was placed in the hands of Captain Jack uossm in my presence, no paper contained a vile ana scurruuus attaoit on me name, lame anu onaraccer of General Thomas Francis Meagher. uaptain uossin instantly sougnt ror tue namo of the author, and learned it waa one General Wemyss dooson. Captain Gosson at onco begged my services as his friend, and gave mo tbo following letter to deliver to Jcbson: Copy. CAPTAIN OOSSIN's LETTEB TO WBSATES3 JOB BON. New Yobk, June 28.

Snt I had tho painful performance of reading in the Fifth A venue Journal, a biographical sketoh.of tbe late General Thomas F. Meagher, of which I am informed you nre the author. A more dastardly and cowardly attack on tbe dead I never read or heard of beforo, and aa tho friend of the gifted and gallant dead hero, I demand a full and public retraction, or that you will vindicate your title of general, by according to me, who feel deeply injured aB tbe friend, companion and staff officer of General Meagher, that kind of satisfaction ttiat ono aoldier never fails to accord to another. My friend, General B. F.

Mullen, will deliver this note. He is autborized to make aU nocessary arrangements without publicity or delay. Respectfully, John J. Gosson, Lato Captain Sixty ninth Kegimcut, N. Y.

S. A. D.C Staff General Thomas F. Mooghor. General D.

Wemyss Jobeou. I found that gentleman in the office of the Irish Dsrn ocrat on the morning of the 2Utb. Calling him asido privately, I delivered my message. Gen. Jobson, in a hurried, nervous manner, went on to say ho did not know Capt.

Gosson. The captain was not of equal rank with him (Jobson) and beaido he waa not responsible for the rrliclo. That the whole responsibility rested with a Mr. Bunlop, proprietor and editor of the Fifth Avenue Journal, and that he (Jobson) wrote the article at the dictation of Mr. Dunlop, and for "mere pay," eto.

I cut him short by Baying, "If you decline to fight my friend, Captain GoBson, on the grounds of his wanting rank, as I curried the uoto you will pleaso to consider I stand in the Captain's placo aud will leave you my card." Jobson's reply was "No, no, General Mullen I mean no diBrespect to cither you or your friend. I simply say tbis is no quarrel of mine. I am not responsible for the article." "Then, sir," I Raid, "you must put your defense in writing as I will carry no verbal messages." General Jobson thon sat down and and handed me the following letter JOBSON'S LETTEB. New Youk, June 29. To General Mullen Deau 8m.

You have brought me to day a letter from a gentleman wholly unknown to me, and who has not the slightest legitimate right to address me ou such a subject. 1 thereforo return it after reading only the few introductory lines, as the tone of it is such as to preclude me from further uotioe but from feelings of courteBy to you and even to the writer of the letter I deBiro to say that I am in no degree responsible for the article on Goneral Meagher; and that the only party who is so, is a vile Scottish ruiscroant, who avowedly originated it merely with tho view of having a wretched rag or slop pall of a journal belonging to him advertised by an attack on it from the Irish newBparers. I am always ready to meet any legitimate claim upon me, but I would suggest to you aud your friend tha inexpediency of thus promoting this base fellow's Bordid Yiews, as he is, in aU probability, instigated or in expectation of receiving a few dollars from the British Consul here by embroiling men who are obnoxious to that brutal government. With much regard I remain yours sincerely, Wemyss obsoh. I submitted Gen.

Jobson's letter to my friend, Oapt. GoBson, also to Capt. Wm. Hogan, formerly oommandor of the "Napper Tandy Gen. Moagher's command.

Capt. Hogan's judgment confirmed my own that the letter was a full retraction on tho part of Job son. as to his responsibility and, moreover, I thought it of doubtful propriety to permit Capt. Gordon to go upon tbe field of honor and meet a man who confessed he played the ghoul slandering tbe memory of a gallant soldier for "pay" aud who further confessed that he was the hireling of a "Scottish miscreant," who was the proprietor of a rile plop pail journal, and would, if be could, be a blackmailer on the British Consul in thla city. While this negotiation was pending Gen.

Gleason came to me, requesting mo to doliver the following letter to Mr. Dunlop. After Jobson was disposed of or rather after he disposed of himself I called upon Mr. Dunlop and delivered this missive GEKZBAL QLEABOn's LETTEB TO J. L.

DUNLOP. SWEEHI'S HOTKL, lUUO 28. L. Dunlop, Editor Fifih Avenue Journal; In your paper, dated 29th you have desecrated tbe memory of my commander, General T. F.

Meagher, by aspersions upon bis character as an American, a fentleman, and an Irish patriot, which aspersions I now to be also. As the friend and comrade of the gallant Amerloan soldier and dovoted Irish patriot, whom you have maligned and calumniated, an senior officer of the Irish Brigade, hereby demand either an apology to the outraged memory of my late revered commander and friend, or that you will accord to me that gentlemanly reparation for your gratuitous and uncalled for outrage which would be due to himself wero he alive. My friend, General F. Mullen, tho bearer of this note, is fully authorized to act for me In this matter. Yours, respectfully, John H.

Gleason. Late Colonel Sixty third Regiment, N. Y. and Brevet Brigadier General and Brevat Major Gsneral U. S.

He received me courteously, but said that he was not properly addressed, and beside he was not the editor of the Journal However, he mo into tho private otnee, road the letter, aud with a flouriah, said "I accept, I will fight your friend any way he wants it." "Thank you, sir. We are trigger men, and can settle thiB matter in a very short time." He. Mr. Dunlop, promised to send a friend to meet me at Sweeny's Hotel not later than i P.

M. General Gleason, Captain Goseon and myself waited beyond the time, and no "friend" putting tn an appearance, I sent to Mr. Dunlop the following letter by the lianas of Captain Gcsson GEN. STULLEN'b LETTBB TO MB. DUNLOP.

Gosson. Capt. Gosson delivered the note, and presented ms this written statement: New Yobj, Juno 295 P. M. Gen.

B. F. Mullen: As requested by you I had tho honor to present your letter to Mr. Dunlop. I waited his reply, which was simply this: "I am not going to be frightened, but shall wait my own time." Yours respectfully, John J.

Gosson. Gen. Gleason remained at Sweeny's all of that night, appearing again early next morning. No "friend" on that day calling upon me from Mr. Dunlop, I sent to that gentleman by the hands of Col.

P. J. Butlor, a second epistle, and tho following letters explain how valiantly Mr. Duulop kept his promise to "fight my friend any way he desired:" SECOND LETTEB OP MULLEN TO DUNLOP. New Yoak, July I.

Mb. Dunlop: I had tke honor to send, by tho handx of my friend, Captain Gosson, a letter on Saturday last (29th ultimo), asking you to rodcom your promise tn meet my friend Gonoral Gleason, and render satisfaction for your aspersions upon tho character of the lato General Meagher. Captain Gosson says your vorbal reply was: "I am not to bo frightened, and I want time." I had no desire to "frighten" you, though it appears I have innocently done so; aud, as to "time," I do not propose to wait until tho day of judgment to have the honor to meet the "friend" you solemnly promised would wait on mo at Sweeny's Hotel, on Saturday last, at 4 o'ciook P. M. Please give me a reply to this.

My friend, General GleaBcn, is ready to answer any oall I may make upou him, in the matter of vindicating the character of his late commander, General Meagher. Yours, B. F. Mullen. July 2.

P. 8. The bearer of this, Colonel P. J. Butler, will receive your reply.

I gently sjggcst you give that reply in writing, and with as muoh tecrccy as you can. Yours, B. F. Mjllkn. COLONEL BUTLEB TO GENEBAL MULLEN.

New YoaK, July 2. General B. Mullen I had the honor to carry your note of the 1st and poscript of tho 2d, to Mr. Dunlop. He absolutely refused to redeem his pledge to meet your friend General Gleason or make any apology.

You must bo the Judgo of hi3 honor and character as a gentloman when I say to you that ha regarded the matter ontirely as child's play, aa he expressed it to me. Yours, respectfully, Pieboe J. Butler. Now the publio can judge the merits of the whole controversy. I was drawn into the affair by say affection for the memory of th3 herolo dead and strong friendship for a gallant living officer.

It I havo seemingly violated laws that 1 have heretofore both respected and defended, it was because my heart bade me vludicate the memory of a brave BOldler, a generous, genial gentleman, and a sterling Irish patriot as well, too, to turn aside the shafts of slander that were aimed to pierce the hearts of those General Meagher loYod so well while on earth. Very respectfully, your obedient servant, B. F. Mullen. MORE RUFFIANISM.

There 1b a charm about tbi play which i i explained by the fact that it mere nearly approached a photograph of life in New York, than any other play which has as yet made ils avtpcarsnee upon the boards of tho American stage. By no means do we desire to claim for this play any especial excellence, for it has too many of the worst ot the Boucicaultian characteristics. Nevertheless the characters are all sharply defined, and by far the best drcwn of them all i that of Lodger. Mr. J.

X. Mortimer won very much of his fame in this character, and for a long time he was supposed to be tin rivaled in the character, bnt since Mr. Frank Mayo, has undertaken it he effectually made the part his own. The part, by the latter, has been carefully conooived and is elaborately performed. Yery much new business is introduced all for the better and every action has a decided meaning.

The snap and vim of Mortimer is not there, but in its place 1b found careful repose infinitely more pleaing and effective. There is a conscientiousness of strength and power displayed in Mayo'a that irresistibly draws the sympathies of the audience tothe outlaw whom the Vigilance Committee out of San Francisco. Mr. Mayo invests the character with a criminal Bohemlanlsm, a self confession of Ecampishness which has its motive Bpring in a latent goodness of heart. There is also a rollicking recklessness and self possession about his Badger which warms the heart to tho ruffian and scoundrel.

The mcchmicsl portion of the performance is fall equal to the conception. The "make up" at all time3 is ercellent, and his stage business and by play shows that the most oareful consideration has been giveu to ihe part. When one sees so mnoh talent given to the performance of such a pert as it with a feeling that rjreat abilities are prostituted. However, for the summer season, it In a most enjoyable play. The cast is unusually strong, ind all of thorn, with the exception of the man who play3 Edwards, and that other man, who playB the Policeman, both of whom gro sly exaggerated lae characters were very exccUent, indeed.

Union Squabb Theatre. The Vokes family begun the eeccmd week of their engagement at tha Union Square Theatre last evening, before an audience which filled the house in every part to its utmost capacity. The performance was commenced with Brongh's amusing comedy, "Kind to a Fault," the several parts of which were sustained by the members of the regular company. In this pleasant interlude Misses Jennie Bee, Fanny Haywai'd, Mr, J. F.

Burnett and Mr. Vining Bowers appeared, and It is needless to say that the play was admirably given. The Vokes family reserved their efforts for the afterpiece and gave the sketch entitled "The Belles of the Kitchen." It 1b not a play bnt simply a laughable burlesque which serves to bring ont fully the versatile character of the members of this Interesting family. It is made np of amuBing points, some of which are very telling. In the conrse of ths sketch selections from the opera are giveu with spirit and the ballet is also introduced by Miss Bosina and Mr.

Fawdon Vokes in a manner which does not offend good taste and Jb cridltble to the perfor ners, Tha Interest of the audience was to the last. Such is the magnetism of the group that not a Beat was vacated until the final fall of the ourtain on tbe clottng tableau. The sr.rne performance will be given every evening this week and at the matinee on Saturday. Th muBio at this theatre is remarkably good. MUSICAL.

The Gebman Band Concert. Tho Kaiser Franz Band (Saro leader) gave its second concert at the Sink in this city. ArtisMoally the concert was a complote success pecuniarily it was a failure, since the house was not by any means half full. The Baud's Bplendid execution was loudly and enthusiastically applauded. masculines bending beneath the weight of provisions for the trip, kept pouring down Fulton' etreot from thence down to Martin's wharves.

At this point lay the Sleepy Hollow and two capactous barges from th decks of which a robust band cent forth merry muaio. The excursionists kept coming in Buoh numbara that at one time the advisability of procuring another barge was disensced. the committee of arrangements worked indefatiably, and as a conse quence all were comfortably seated. THB STABT. At 10 o'olock Judge Walsh, thaPrjaldent of the Constitution Club, Btepped briskly over the gang plank amid loud aheering.

The band Blrack up "Hail to the Chief." At 10:30 the Olnb, nnder the direction of Assessor Furey and Beeper Shevlen, (who are both naval graduates,) weighed anchor, and the Sloepy Hollow then steamed off, the crowd upon the dock oheering lustily. The trip around ths BattBry was attended with considerable danger the harbor being filled with craft of almost every description. To allay the anxiety of tho more timid ones, Frealdent Walsh ordered Jimmy Campbell, Barney York and the Infant Collins to TAKE THE HELM. Tho lager bier stand happoncd to be on tho line or their route to the helm, but thoy managed to got by it after a brief struggle. Perfect confidence wau restored when they took bronjUtit down to the Judge and tried to uiako him beUovo that it was entirely sound.

Probably tho coolest and CALMEST MAN ON BOARD was Judgo Delmar. Ho walked all over the boat ex planing nautical terms to the unsophisticated, bal when the President asked him if ho would go np aloft he didn't appear to know as much about sailoring as men wko have spent all tholr lives on the tea. StiU he didn't lose his confidence; and after giving his trousers a truly nautical hitch said certainly he'd go np a loft if tho President would find hun one; further, if necessary, he'd go up a tree; but ho wouldn't go up in a ralloon if ho could help it. When the excursionists were opposito Dudley's Grove on the Hudson, the Hon. David Aitkin wanted to stop the boat until he could go home and return.

He had forgotten his Bpectaclerj and assembly files. When the excursionists (particularly the Hon. Hugh Clatk, who has been in Albany,) found that there is no legislitive reading on board, the feeling of disappointment was intense. Notwithstanding all thjs, Judge Walsh sternly ordered the Captain to proceed. Then THE BAND BEGAN TO PLAT and little feet and large beat time to the lively Btrains.

Sets wero formed and dunoing commenced. Ab tho BAGX.E roporter looked over the deoks, he noticed among the whirling crowd many faces famihar to the Brooklyn public. THB DANCEBS. There was Judge Walsh, with the sunflower rosette, and his lady Assessor Furey and lady, Tom Morris and lady, 8. D.

Morris, Andrew MoOlellan and daughter, Supervisor Nelson, Jas, Kearney and lady, John Guilfoj le, P. and lady, Coroner WhitehiU and lady, Frank White and lady, Architect Hnndell and lady, Jas. Farrell and lady, Mr. Blaok and lady, of New York Alderman McGroarty, Supervisor Foley, Com missioners Scott, Jas. Scott and lady, Beeper Shevlen and lady, Bobert Murray and lady, Peter Eeli, James Glass and daughter, Harry McLaughlin, Miss Susie Mclaughlin and a protty blonde, Sergeant Cr.in and lady, Harry White and several members of tho Shovlon Association, Supervisor Shev len, Barnet York and lady, John Lee, Frank Stryker, J.

McCarthy and lady, Patricius Collins and his shadow, ChaB. Johnson and a Monde, Hon. Hugh Clark and lady, the artist, Mr. Jas. Magill, Commissioner Harry Hawks, Col.

Kerrigan, Count Campbell, the Chief's brother and lady, Whito, the actor, Thos. Cruurrney and two beautiful brunettes, Engineer Gaffnoy and lady, J. Cohen and lady, Joe Duffy and lady, Court In terpreter Smith and lady, Thos. Hudson and lady, Frank Quinn, and a host of others whoso names would fill one side of a paper. The nrusio was excellent, and the Floor Committeo admirably adapted to their duties, Without exception the finest male dancer pTtaent was the Hon, Patricius Collins, It was a truly beautiful sight to see him cut pigeon wings and swing through the most difficult of dances, as did the Knight of the Bose leaf iu the old song, where As light aB a And altogether as airy, He danced foe girla' hearts away." Tho excursion, take it all and all, was the finest which has left Brooklyn BO far this season.

Order, which was not disturbed by the slightest of dlccord, prevailed all the way up the river, and indeed all the way down also. The Committees were selected with careful forethought, and performed their duties in the most commendable manner, in all respcots, go that no one was allowed in the boat whose rcspecabtlHy was even under suspicion. The affair wa3 conse quently much more select than river excursions gcii' eraUy are. On arriving at Pond Island it was discovered that the water would not admit of a landing. It wai ao shallow that the boats could not be brought alongside, In auoh high good humor were the excursionists that the lncidont in no way detnetad from their pleasure They danced and sang, and flirted without the slightest murmur or disappointment.

Several chivalrous gentlomen, among the numbor Judges Walsh and Del mar, offered to row the ladies ashore, out the offer was courteously declined. THE BBTTJBN. After a short slop the boats were headed homeward. Dancing continued wlthont intermission all the way down. When opposite Sing Sing a vote for President was taken with the following recult Horace Greeley 300 Gan.

Grant Geo. Francis Train Victoria Judge Walsh 153 An animated search was made for the Grant man. When discovered he was found to be a poor demented fellow who was employed to Bweep off the deckB, The excursionists were saluted by the proprietors of Dud ley's Grove while passing. It was with tho greatest difficulty that the Hon. Hugh Clark was restrained from going ashore.

He wanted to make a Bpecoh to Dudley entirely obvlouB to the fact thai the individual bearing that name has been dead for years. Ab the evening camo on hordes of serenaded marched through the boats and sang sweet songs to gome of the sleeping excursionists, songs fuU of affec tion and eentimen'v. Aesistant Engineer Gaffney of tbe Fire Department, had particular attentions paid him, Ab he lay reclined upon a Bofa dreaming the dreams of innocence, lUs elumbara were disturbed by the ohorus of a choir who sang w.th gret feeling "Well hang Jim Gaffney to a Bour apple tree, We'U hang Jim Gaffney to a sou? apple tree, As Greeley goes marching on." He responded with an empty soda water bottle, and the eerenaders withdrew. The serenaders wore con ducted without interfering with the dancers, and were voted collectively an immense success. Frank Whito, with his moustache waxed a la Fisk, made a hand eome appearance ae leader.

HOME, SWEET HOME. By 11 P. M. the excursionists were brought alongsido of Martin's wharves, and marched over tbe gangplank to the sweet strains of "Home, Sweet Home." Not an accident marred the pleasuro of the trip, and it will doubtless long be remombered with pleasure. The success of the affair was mainly due to the fact that each member of the olub constituted himcelfa committee of one to presorve order, although their services were not brought into requisition to any great extent in thie respect.

The Constitution Club has demonstrated its ability to run a first class picnic SPORTS AND PASTIMES. Base Ball Atlantic vs. Olympic.

Yesteday afternoon, Jamas McCormack, aged seven years, fell off a dirt cart his father was driving, and sustained severe internal injuries, as well as a cut on the head. He was taken to the Ninth Precinct Station House, and Dr.

Bowron dressed his wounds, after which he was taken home by bis father to the comer of Classon avenue and Wyckoff street. At two o'clock, yesterday afternoon, James Cassidy, while Intoxicated, fell off a truok in itfatbush avenue, and was seriously injured about tbe spine. Officer Babcock took him to the City Hospital. At half seven o'clock yesterday morning Charles Vail, living in Pioa avenue, near Sumter street, was severely injured by a truck colliding with car on which he was riding at the corner of Fulton street and Flatbush avenue. He was taken to the Olty Hospital, anti two men who had charge of the truok were arrested and taken to the First Precinct Station House.

At five o'clock bwt evening Dr. Bamucl T. Speir, of No, 219 Harrison street, fell from his wagon and was was Biightly injured in his right leg. Bonndsman Cadden. of the Third Precinct, conveyed him home.

At two o'clock in the afternoon Charles Qainn, residing in Withers Btreet, Eastern District, while at work in Dcam's ship yard, at the foot of Partition street, on the United States lightship No. 25, fell from a ladder and dislocated his shoulder. He was ont to the Long Island College Hospital. HOUSE OF THE GOOD SHEPHEBD. The grand festival in aid of the House of the Good Shepherd, which is to come off on Thursday next, promises to be a fine affair.

It is hardly necessary to remind the readers of the Eagle of the laudable nature of the enterprise. The works of the Good SiBters, for whose benefit this festival is held, speak for themselves, and all who deaire to help them in their endeavors to alleviate Buffering and banish crime should attend. tnat tne resolutions are ony eviaence ol tne aaroitneas in 'legerdemain or the mover or the resolutions. Assailed in tldB atrocious manner by one of our eol leagucs, the Brooklyn Aldermen determined, very properly, I think, not to go on with the oonforeuce until sucn time as we can iurnisn tne eviaence mat a majority are in favor of annexation, Tbe Committee of Nino reported to the adjourned town, meeting ef July 10. This meeting was larger than any that bad preceded it, and the expression in favor of annexation was overwhelming.

What have we gained thus far By repeated expressions at public meetings the evidence is furnished that tbe people, by a majority so deoisive that further opposition to the measure must prove useless, are in favor of annexation. The voice of the people, thus unmistakably expressed, must now be carried out and rendered effective. NON BESIDENT TAXPAYBBS FOB ANNEXATION. It is ascertained that noarly all the non resident taxpayers aro in favor of annexation. Of those already consulted every one favors the extension of tho Brooklyn city limits over the town of New Lots, and de3iro it to be consummated as speedily as possible.

Tho minor local press, representing minor munloipal interests and a constituency on which the burden of taxation presses with comparative lightness, are remarkably free from economical prejudices. They aTe always in favor of expansion and making Buob. additions to departments as cannot but add largely to the public expenditure. For example, thus the E. D.

Herald Brooklyn can speak for hersolf. Are her half million inhabitants, her magnificent buildings, publio and private; her educational facilities aud school edifices her system of water supply her railroads, so numerous her sewerage system so perfect, unable to answer for her Still there are some defects which wo would like in common with nearly all our follow oitizonB to correct. Principal of tbehe we may mention the LACK OF A SUFFICIENT FOBOE OF POLICE. The security of life and property, the porf oct protection of the honest citizen against the thief Snd assassin, is aa necessary to the good namo of a great city as immenso public buildings aud magnificent private reBideuceB. In fact, the two bein compared, the architectural achievements sink luto insignificance.

Tho police forco Bhould bo increased at least one third, thereby giving each patrolman a much le3s distance to cover. If the corner rowdies who murdered Officer Dcnshuo had known that the police in their neighborhood wero as plentiful as they are around locations of a similar nature in New York, Officer Donahue would havo been aHve to day, instead of Bleeping in his grave a martyr to duty. Ponder this, and count the cost of an extra officer or two, or even a dozen in every Precinct. Then our FIBE DEPAETMENT SHOULD BE INCBEASED bb to the number of apparatus and men. E'ovcn engines, and tho compliment of hook and laddor companies is entirely insufficient for the work which they might be obliged to take in hand.

So many large manufacturing establishments as line our river shores are ever liable to cinflagrations, and a calamity like that of Chicago, although it may seem impossible here, might take place. These two Departments Bhould be incroasod in numbersas to their efiictenoy wo have nothing to complain of. A BREAKING ICEBERG, The breakage described by a Newfoundland correspondent, occurring in Si, John's harbor, involved large waste. Had it occurred iu ouv harbor tbo ice monopolies might have been subject io sharp competition. My arrival here was opportune for witnessing one of tnose events wnicn, wncnever tney occur, impress cue anew with awe and wonder at the manifests tion ol the power ot nature.

Ftr several days a huge Iceberg hud been lyinj off the entrance to the harbor, relating tbo action of the wind and current, remiia iug btjuuicij auuuu.tAi uj Burnt) jjyiuii but) ledge of rocks bslow. Aa tbe Allan ateamebip Moravian approached the rugged and forbidding coutt, many icebergs were seen prenent'Egall chat variety of outline common to these huge crystals from Winter's chill laboratory. The berg above referred to nearly blocked the entrance to the harbor, and as the stsamer, nnder charge Of the weatnor beaten puot, passea witnin tnirty yards, the mountain of ice was seen to tremble under the recurring waves caused by the huge steamer. Suddenly, with a report like thunder, an avalanche of ice fell into the water, and report after report followed, tons of ice crumbled away, and it eeemed as if the whole mass was about to fall to nieces, sroaninq and reverberating with peal on peal, till at last the centre oi gravity naving cnangea. tne ice jsiana toppled over with a slow and steady motion, displacing huge waves of Bea.and another side arose to view throwing into the air a column of water as high as a ennren steeple.

Then the great monster seemed to snake itself free, the water rolling from its many peaks, and with an entire change of shape it floated steadily upon the ocean to renew its evolutions as wave and sun act upon its exposed sides. Often in the night npon the shores of Conception Bay I have heard reports as of distant thunder, or falling of houses, and been told it was the "lounaoring ot oergs," nut hau novor berore been a near witness of the grand sight afforded by the crumbling of these ice islands which have been launched upen tne sea "irom, irooniana'a icy mountains." A PICKPOCKKT CiUailT. Yesterday morning, at half past eleven o'clock, Mrs. Margaret Eernny, who rcsidci at Fort Hamilton, was in ono of the Fort Hamilton cars, and riding toward Brooklyn, when she noticed a man of about thirty years of age who entered and eat down very close to her, although there were few passengers tho car and there was plenty of room on the seats. She never suspected anything, however, until he shortly afterward got out, and she, happening to put her hand in her pocket, found that her wallet, contain ng to, bad been stolen.

She at once caw that the man who sat so close to her was the thief, and she then gave tbe alarm. Fortunately one of the men on the car was XT. S. Detective James Samson, and ho and others gave chase to and finally caught the thief, who gave his namo as Joseph Child, and said he was a barkeeper, He was handed over into the custody of Officer Doyle, of the Eighth Precinct, and was locked up for examination, Mrs. Bernny making a charge.

Ho haB Binco been iucntiaed aa the man who out tho pocket out of a lady's dress in a Fifth avenue car last week. The pocket contained a purse, with $13 in bills aud some small ohango in it. ATTEMPTED BUltGLAItT. At 4 o'clock this morning an attempt was made to burglarize a jewelry storo Mr. Johnson's, of No.

1,021 Fulton Btreet. The burglars wero attempting to forco the front door when Johnaon was awakened by the noise he raised tho front bedroom window to Bee what was the matter, and the thievos got frightened and left. MONET MARKET. Wali. Stuket, July 23.

Gold opened at 114f, and but a moderate business was done even at these figures. The carrying rato ranges from 2 to 3 per and there is no movement wnatevor on the part of tho oliquos, the excuse being given that they aro waiting for the announcement of the August programme of the Secretary of the Treasury. Exchange is so low now that it is not probable that the shipments will be larger thiB week. Governments are dull and weaker than they were yesterday.

The rate for money i3 very easy and tho best class of borrowers can be accommodated at2 The business in stooks Is rather to day than it has been, and the attendance of brokers ia larger, owing mainly to the reduced temperature.
