TTAlfTED GIEL FOIi (J'E NE A THURSDAY EVENING, AUGUST 15. THE POOR CHILDREN. The Filth Picnic To Canarsle Yos terday OYer Three Hundred tittle Ones and Seventy mothers Out. The iifth pionic for the poor children of the city, gotten up under the auspices of the Fresh Air Fund Association, took place yesterday. By actual count there were 376 children and seventy flvo poor mothers accompanied by sickly Utile ones.

The destination was Canarsie, and the route was that whioh has been traversed oh the former occasion, to wit, over the Atlantlo street railroad to East New York, and thence by steam to the camping ground at the bay aide Despite the intense heat there was plenty of fresh air around the scene of the pionic It was about ten o'clock whan the company reaohed the ground; No time was loBt in getting the fun going. Sandwiches and lemonade in abundance were distributed, and after they had been disposed of bathing was resorted to. Suitable dresses were given to the girh, while the boys took to the water in the costume of Eden before tho fall. One of the most Interesting games participated in during the day was foot ball in the water. The urchinB en joyed it immensely.

After this dancing parties were organized and to the music of Rumpf's band the figures of the waltz, polka and echottlaeh were gracefully cut. Ice cream and cake followed the danoing, and as 1 o'clock, after a delightful day, the picnickers started for home It is impossible to Btate the good that is being accomplished by this movement. The managers are in receipt of intelligence showing that the fresh air and exhilaration obtained by the trip have saved the lives of several children. On Saturday tho old ladies from the Graham Instltuie and the Church Charity Foundation will be the beneficiaries of the fund. SPORTS AND PASTIMES.

Base Ball. The Pbofessional Abeka. The most vulgar and discreditable gathering of spectators seen at a professional match thiB season in thia vicinity wbb the crowd present at the match on the Capitoliuo grounds yesterday, August 14. We have hitherto prided ourselves in Brooklyn upon the fairness and impartiality of our base ball crowds compared with tho gatherings of "heelers" who flock to the Athletic grounds iu Philadelphia, the Baltimore ball grounds, and the Union grounds, Boston, not forgetting Troy. But yesterday's crowd, in its partisan character, was no better than the worst seen in a couutry village, Buch as Mid dletown, for instance.

At times the yells at errors committed, the comments on adverse deciaious of the umpire, the callB of betting men, the blasphemy of the rungbs, and the regular heeler" remarks upon the piay generally reminded us of the Bo culled good old times" when a fair and impartial assemblage of spectators was something unknown at a bail match on free grounds. It iB to lie hoped that no more such displays of a mean, low, partisan spirit will mark an Atlantic match again like thBre waa yeaterday or the Atlantic Club will lose their best friends'. Not only did the betting crowd undertake to umpire the game, but actually to captain the Atlantlo nine. Por the latter piece of assurance they were promptly rebuked by Terguson. We notice that the New York reporters have not a word of rebuke for tho action of tho crowd.

Had the opponents of tbe AUantics been tbe Mutuals, the impartial writers would have pitched in in lively style, but being only the Boston nine they Eee things in a different light. The Sim account gives the Atlantic two earned runs. If tho runs in tho first inning were earned on the same basis of calculation, the Boston er.ica five runs. But the fact was not a run was earned on cither side in tbe entire game, errors preventing earned runs fn every inning. As regards the umpire's decision, he made but one palpable mistake, and that was iu nut deciding Harry Wright out.

Tho game was below the mark ot both nines in fielding, tho BoBtons especially disappointing fceir friends. It was Leaven's bad day, ana ho wub evidently not iu trim, but ho ofitet bis errors with soma good CJtcbes and tine stops. He plays better at short field then at Eecoud base, Burdock boing the man for that position. In the firat inning licmsen led off by giving Ltonavd a catch, Burdock tbeu made bis base by a hit got Mb second cn a balk, bia third on Barlow's hit, tho latter being put out, aud got homo on a passed ball FcrguBon then made his base, aud had a Ufo" gi roil him at eecend by McVey's bad throw, and he afterward got round by a bad throw by Leonard aud homo by a muff of McVey's, and yet the, Sim gives tho Atlantic two earned runB. In the Bccond inning the Bostonu made five first base hits, one being also a two basor aud another a homo run, Schaffcr scoriug when but one man was out and only two chaucea given.

There, in reality, was not a run earned in tho game. Bolow we give an impartial scoro of the game: ATLANTIC. HOBTON. B.1B.P.A II. 111.

Wilson Macdonald, whoee bronze portrait bust of Washington Irving now adorns Prospect Park, is modeling a colossal equestrian statue of General Lyon, who fell early in the war, at the battle of Wilson's Creek, August 10, 1B61. This statue is executed by order of a committee of citizens of the State of Missouri, aud is to be erected in Lafayette Squaro, in the City of St.

Louis, at the next anniversary of the battle in 1873. Mr. Macdonald expects to finish the clay model by the first of November, and to have the plaBter casts ready for the bronze casting in January next. In modeling this grand' work of national soulpture, Mr. Macdonald has been allowed by the Committee to follow the dictates of bis own mind, and, if we may judge from the results thU3 far attained, ho has been eminently BUcceBsf ul in producing a work which, win bear the test of criticism, in whatever light it may be received.

The design sdowb the great soldier on horseback, having just ridden forward in tho front of the battle to take command of a body of troops and make the charge, which resulted in his death. The General is bareheaded and holds his cap in his right hand, which is extended at his side His left hand holds the bridle rein, which is taut, as if to restrain the fiery impetuosity of his horse. The body is gracefully posed on the saddle, and in its vigorous power indicates forcibly the prominent trait in General Xjyou's character, which was fearless determiuation and contempt of danger. Tho head, in its proud pose and with its flowing heard, is heroic. The horse appears as if brought to a sudden halt and rests upon its left fore and right hind legs, and is yet in vigorous action that is to say, the eye, the nostrils, and every cord and muscle of the body is quivering with excitement.

In modeling the horse the sculptor has made hiB studies from the finest American Btock, and has worked up one of those broad chested animals which in peace are winners of our races and in war are fearless of danger, and with tbem no spur is needed to urge them to the battle's front. The neok is proudly arched, and to make the harmony of lines oomplete, a magnificent flowing tail serves ae a counterpoise and inoressos the harmony of its proportions. The bridle and trappings connected with it, and the sheathed sword all form graceful lines, and appear to have been so studied as to add to the harmony of the general design, and their effect is very striking. The statue is to be cast in bronze, at the Chicopee foundry, from old cannon. EDWARD BATES, OF MISSOURI.

Mr. Macdonald's colossal statue of Edward Bates, YELLOW FEVBB. Visit by Dr. Cochran to the Vumaucio. The appearance two days ago of the Ku mancia in the bay with tbe yellow fever on board naturally awakened fear in the minds of Brooklynites living along the water front.

As was shown by the Eagle yeBterday, a committee from that Bection waited upon Dr. Cochran in regard to the threatened pestilence and induced him to go down the bay and inspect affairs for himself. This morning he was visited by an Eagle reporter, and reply to some questions made the following statement STATEMENT OP DB. COCHRANE. A number of citizens waited on me to day in relation to the vessel now in tbe bay baying yellow fovcr on board.

MoBt of them livo down about Gowanus and Bay Ridge. They Baid they were afraid the disease would spread the same as it did when tbe Bergcas died. I started down the bay and quieted their fears as well as I could. I saw the vessel at anchor. They have a police guard on deck, so I learned from Dr.

MoBer, who also told me that no one could get on board. The Quarantine authorities have also a guard around the vessel on a separate boat, on which tbe men are changed every day and night so that nothing can ba thrown overboard. The vesBel is a safe dlB tance from the shore, and is only dangerous by things thrown overboard, suoh as old clothing, bedding, and tho like. The ship iB said to bs perfectly clean and in good condition. I am told bo by Dr.

Moaer. Tho vessel lies about thres quarters of a milo below Quarantine lauding. I could not learn that there is any feeling of opposition among the people at all. The vessel is uearest the Staton Island Bbore, and the passengers on the Stateu Island boats think that she changes her position. The vessel has a long chain and changes with tho tide, but her anchors have not been paieed since slio came there.

Thoy took nine off when they came here, and one that night, makes ten caeoB. Four died on tbo way from Havana, and two when tho rossel arrived, which makes six deaths in all out of twenty two patients. There is no of the being communicated to Long Island, except they allow boats to get alongside to get some clothing, Tho winds won't carry it. Dr. Motor's order was to have have no boats come alongBido.

He thought if tbe attempt was made bia men would shoot the intruders. The men on watch are changed at regular same as the police are changed here. I think it is perfectly eafe a8 long a 3 they keep strict quarantine. IVo Danger of its Spreading Inland Necessary Precautions Itccoui menaedi To the Jiditor of the Brooklyn Eagle Will you please remind the timid that the position of the yellow fever vessels in the differs greatly form that of 1858? At that time a large number of infected vessels were placed within three quarters of a mile of the Long Island shore, extending from Graves Bnd Bay to Owl's Head, and without a police worthy of the name. The consequences to the community are much more vividly remembered than the circumstances which occasioned them.

Now with the single exception of tbe Numancia, placed where Bhe is from necessity, tbe anchorage of infected vessels is two miles distant from the nearest shore, and with an efficient police, The Numanoia alone 1b at a safe distance for the double purpose of her own protection and the protection of the public and being a man of war, under the highest degree of discipline, her police are perfect.

THE MORAL DAILIES ON PRIZE FIGHTS. Both Men "Knocked Out of Time' by the Law. A oolnmn and a half in the Sun, the same In the Herald, ditto in the World, and half a column iu the moral Times, la the amount of space devoted to the details of the prizefight fizzle iu which the English "bruiaor," Jem Mace, and the Irish giant pugilist, CBaldwin, aro the principal characters. The Tnoune alone confines ita notices of the affair to a simple new paragraph, and thla ia given under the appropriate head of "The Law Breakers' Record." The above papers have Bent apecial reporters to give the minutest details of the movements of those heroes of the prize ring, just as they bave done in describing the Incidents of tbe tour of the worthy presidential candidate, Mr. Greeley; and yet with all the encouragement such notoriety necessarily gives to prize fighters, these same papers talk editorially about the law putting down the "odious practice of prize fighting," whereas the moBt stringent law enaoted would not be half as effectual as tha Ignoring by the press of all the movements of these brutes of society.

By keeping their names ont of print, and ceasing to give them tho newspaper notoriety they have, the prize ring would soon become a dofunct institution; but while the movements of "pugs," "bruisers," and others of the very lowest class of our metropolitan population are thus dilated upon, any law against prize fighters will be practically null and void. The Sun opens its sensation report of the affair with MACE SLEPT WELL last night, and awoke at six o'olook this morning." The same paper Infers that "O'Baldwin Is courting arrest." Of course, the "observed of all observers," though they were not exactly "tbo glass of fashion," even if "the mould of form" for the perfection of man's beauty is his countenance, and the faoes of thS3e specimen "bruisers" are simply indicative of the uaual physiognomy of their class, animal brutality being the prevalent feature. As usual with prize fights iu this country of late, there is the usual trouble about avoiding arrest, objections to referees, and all the other dodges incident to efforts to AVOID ACTUAL FIGHTING. In fact it looks as if tbe whole arrangement was one entered into to aohieve the notoriety necessary for working capital, for unless your pug can be talked about he is regarded as of no aooount. It won't do for a professional prize fighter to remain quiet.

He must either be attracting attention through the papers by preparing for 4 fight, or by getting into some wrangle about one, or into some street or barroom fight, for all these things constitute the "pug's" capital. Hence it is that he is aided by the sensational papers, the column accounts of what he does and docs not do being BULLY FOB BIZ. Of course a prize fight arrangement would not be complete unless a prominent Ward politician had a band in it, aud so in this affair we find the noted Alderman McMullen, of Philadelphia, quite a prominent individual in managing the meeting. One of the richeBt documents connected with a prize fight is the agreement drawn up by Mace'a friends for both fighters to sign. It is as follows A MODEL AGREEMENT.

We, the 'undersigned, do each for our respective principals, hereby and severally agree that ueither shall take any undue advantage of the other as regards the place of meeting as originally made and agreed upon, iu consequence of any action of the authorities of the State of Maryland and we do further agree that the next time and place of meeting shall be named and agree upon by the undersigned satisfactory to both parties. Believing that our re3peotive principals really mean to right, we do hereby bind them to the abovo articles or agreement. The idea of Mace and O'Baldwin mutually agreeing "not to take any undue advantage of each other," is about the richest thing we have read for some time. Vi hy this taking unfair advantage is the very essence cf the prize ring encounters. Were thero any fairness about the encounters, the thieves and blackguards who patronize the sport would retire from the ring iu disgust.

No wonder O'Baldwin's crowd laughed at euoh an agreement, and it was not signed until the reference to taking an unfair advantage had been duly expunged as heretical iu prize ring tactics. The World introduces its column report with tbe statement that "tho gorgeous liquor saloons aud YTJLOAB GBOG SHOPS of Baltimore, had been agog with anticipation of the advertised prizefight between the Irish giant, Ned O'Baldwin, and tho English Gypsy, Jim Mace." Arriving here last night, the first topic I encountered, even in the quiet dining room of Barnum's Hotel, waa the topic whioh afterward I heard ventilated by roughs on the street corners. It resolved Itself at and about Barnum's into the proposition "Mace will whip the Irishman out of his shoes." Farther down it took a direotly opposite form: "The Gypsy had better look out for himself." These differing formulas were better understood when I learned that Mace was boarding at Bnrnnm's, and that O'Baldwin waB living at English's saloon, a few blocks below. The idea of two prizefighters, 'knowing that the law is against them actually courting' legal interference by selecting the most prominent hotels in the city. The only surprise is that THE LITTLE GAME has not been seen into more than it apparently has been.

The Baltimore officials have.done their duty well in their efforts to suppress the fight. The stopping of the Bteamers was a good point, and no doubt both the principals privately indulgeH in a quiet chuckle when they heard of it, though outwardly they are alleged to have been "aa mad as 11." The latest report iho "coming fight" the "great mill" as it Is Is that ALL IS Alderman McMullen's deQonv are looked for with interest.

A Man who Wants to Know Whether Post Office Clerks We Raising IKoney for Election Expenses, ftfltl If They Have ffladQ a Bargain wltb tho Express Companies How About Postage on Parcels 7 To the Editor qf the Brooklyn EagU: Being a constant reader of your paper, I UV.

UVU au UNIUD UU IUS ATCTY UtHUl IttW in rOgSrU tO parcels, in your odltion of tho 7th. All Post Ofllsea aro to receive parcels, paokages neatly scoured and if containing no other reading matter except the addresB and not weighing over twelve ounces they are to bo 101 wKrueu iu uieir aesiiuauon at cue rate 01 two cents for every two ounces. Now, sir, having a few stencil plates which I desired to sena ssoutn 1 sent a niece of mine, a girl of twelve years of ago, to the PoatOfBceto mail the parcel, the whole arrangement weighing seven ounces and done up in paper, about six Inches by four in size. After waiting some time at tbe opening, the little girl became impatient and rapped, the olerk oame and in a gruff voice that startled the ohild asked her what she wanted. She told her errand, he exclaimed "This is no expresB office and instantly left the opening.

The child came home and gave me the facts a above. Now I became resolved that they should receive it, as I knew the law was right, according to tho Emjle'b quotation. I gave the child the copy of the Eaou and equipped her for the second Journey. She arrived at the Post Office the second time. Thero was another olerk at the onenlnn.

She stated her errand. He said she had better go to tbe express omce a lew doors rrom were, mo oniiu went and found tbe charge very Remembering her Eaole she returned snd showed the clerk tbe it read in your paper. "Well," he says, "I do believe yon are right, after all. Give me the parcel. Thirty six cents charge." The ohild paid the amount, not being instructed as to the amount.

This parcel was weighed at the American Tea Company's store, oorner of Fulton and Concord streets, previous to the posting, and weighed seven ounces; whereas the Post Offlco olerk charged thirty six cents, or at the rate of five oents an ounce. This is a matter of a very few cents to me, bnt a matter of a good many thousands to the people of Brooklyn, if carried on to anv ax tent. Upon considering tbe matter, I concluded to give the particulars by writing to Postmaster Samuel Booth, so that he oould redress thi abuse and praying for an answer. No notice being taken of my complaint I determined to ventilate this matter through the columns of the Eagls, but before doing so I determined to find out if I was in error In regard to the law. I took a parcel similar to the one previously uoBted.

with seven and a half ounces, nave the weight at the desk, snd asked the postage. Eight ocnts was demanded and paid, bnt see the difference when posted by ohildren, or simple servant girls, or others not knowing the law. There is room for considerable fraud here, not through Postmaster Booth knowing, for I think him a respectable and honest gentleman, and I do not believe that my communication ever reaohed him. O.

We have reason to believe that the correspondent's trouble arose from the fact that the Post Offloe clerks charged for the package as under the old rates, and in ignorance of the new law's prioe provisions. They ought to have known the law, bnt they didn't, and men (olerks inoluded) are continually liable to know wbat they ought not to, and not to know what they ought, It Is better to Infer ignorance of a new law of faithful olerks ttian to suspect, their honesty. The Evening Pott last night had a timely artlole on the same subject. Its correspondent had much the same grievance as ours, and the Post's conclusions that, the new law will strike a blow at the express monopolies will, we hope, be.realized. We subjoin the artlole From the Evening Post.

Thx New Postal Law. Hinrm tha nnrtiwtinn Ur an article in the Evening Post, a few days ago, describing the effects of the new Postal la tv, enabling persons to Bend paokages of merchandise weighing Teas than twelve ounces to any part of the United States, at a COSt Of tWO Gents for eSOh tWO OUneAft. nr fraction! nf two ounces, vre have received numerous letters from muereui correspondents oompiolnlng that the provisions of tha taw aro misunderstood by countTy Postmasters. Among the letters reoelved by us lathe following "BOSTOH, August 7. 1872.

To ta Editors pf the Evening Putt "I beg to call your attention to an important error in your article on 'The Poet Office and tbe Express in yesterday's paper, in whioh you state that the postal charge for parcels not exceeding twelve ounces In weight Is two oents for each two ounces. The law, as published in the United States Mail, is one cent for eaoh two ounces and under. I sent yesterday to Burlington, Iowa, a parcel weighing a fraction under 12 ounces, for bIx oents, having first oonsulted the Poat Office authorities here as to its "As this parcel poet, if enoouraged and continued by the government, will be an ImmenBs oonreuienoe and a great check to the Outrages praotioed by the express monopolies, it seems important that too publio should be oorreotly informed about it, and I dare say yon wilfthink it worth whilo to correot tha mistake," In order to prevent all possibility of mistake, we submitted theletter to.the editor, of the United Stafet Ifoi'J, the offloial Post Office journal, who, upon inquiry discovered that our correspondent's parcel contained photographs, whioh, of course, came under tab one 08fi lan vet. diffloult to define exactly what nan wbat oannot be sent by mail under the new law, but the Post Office authorities both in this olty and Washington seem determined to put the most liberal cou struotion upon it, and thore la no doubt but that It has struok a great blow at the Intolerable monopoly of lha express companies, AUliSEMESTS THIS EVENING.

294 North Second street, E. sustained serious injuries last night, and in a somewhat unusual manner. He had furnished beer to two transient customers who refused to cash up as in duty bound, and when cornered they preferred to take French leave to facing theBtalwart beer dispenser. To leave the premises it was necessary to go through the hallway, into which they were followed by Schneiderbocker, and in his haste the latter stumbled and fell, Btriking his head en the corner of a step. The result was that tho saloon man cut his head open, and could not further pursue bis impecunious customers.

Schneiderbocker's wound, which proves not to be of a serious character, was dressed by Surgeon Brady, at the Fourth street Station. ACCIDENT TO A CHILD.

D. Allison, Eckford Club. Time of same Two hours. Of the good plays in the gamo a fine catch by Ferguson and good catches by Thake and KemBen were noteworthy. Beavens, as well bb Burdock, made some good stops, and each made catches.

Ferguson leading in base play, Dehlman also doing service In bis position, while Barlow was active as usual. In batting, Thake led the score, Leonard leading on the other side. Neither McVey for George Wright played well in their positions, and except Gould and Schaffer all played bolow their mark. Spalding spoiled Barlow's batting scoro. The umpiring was not good, but no partiality was shown, but one glaring error being made.

The Athletics played the Maple Leaf, yesterday at Philadelphia, and played a regular lively ball game as the score shows. McBride pitched slows in a majority of innings, and the fielding of the Athletics, with the exception of Anson and Malone, was very slovenly and indifferent throughout. Maddock was the Duly one of the Canadians that fielded wall. Smith's fast pitching proved effective in the last five inuiugB. The following is a summary of the game: ATHLETIC.

MoLean, of the Canavan Club. Time of Game 2 honrs and 20 minutes. The grand match to morrow between tbe Athletic and Atlantic clubs promises to be close and intersitiiig. Jimmy Hall will resume his position at second base and the Atlantics feel confident of giving the Athletics work to do to win. We would Buggest to Mr.

Woed to bave Jebn on the ground to morrow if there is to be any such "heeler" demonstration as there was yes? tcrday. The adminBion it will be remembered is but twenty five cents, the Atlantice receiving tbe gate money, bb tbo agreement is for each club to receive the gato money in each city and not divide. They allow the local club to make their own charges aud pocket all the receipts. The same arrangement is mado in regard to the Mutual aud Athletic match of Saturday, so if fifty cents is charged the Mutual Directors cot the nine remember aro responsible for it. Now if the public waut to eucourage the twenty five ceut tariff, to morrow is their chance to do it by giving the Athletics a bumper crowd.

We aro glad to record the fact lliat Mr. Ferguson is down upon these "heeler crowd" demonstrations, as are all fair and mauly players. YACHTING. Sound Talk to Engl' vaclitsmcu. Te the Editor of the Brook gagle: Commodore Dp jyiag of gappho, has rfie.ny 'comments in the English papers, to nears that he t0 Boil in En8land feaTf British yachtsmeu do not relish not having Amen jn Tachta tnot aro in tneir waters not tak in thoir regattas.

But John Bull like, they rPl to enter under the English rules, which are in regard to tho basis of measurement as be ween English and American yachts. Iu reference to the measurement question, Mr. Douglas in bts letter lo the Field Bays "I might mske many other quotations from English journals condemning the Thames measurement as applied to models differing bo essentially in their forms as the English and American but I shall oon tent myself by referring to a letter written by "8kve Blue with a Black Crose," and published in and and Water. He says 'On the whole, however, one may perhaps arrive at the conclusion that the system' (of Thames measurement) 'Is faulty and does not fair! represent the real capacity of a vessel, inasmuch too little regard is taken to depth (by which American vessels are practically eicluded from taking part in our matches). It would appear fairer instead of taking the beam and half the beam, (o tako the beam aud then the real draught of water.

This would make alt our yachts measure larger, but would more fairly represent their sizes; for few, if any, racers are not deeper than half their beam, except perhaps tlia Alarm. By adopting thiB slight alteration American yachts might be induced to enter in our ma'ches, which would greatly contribute to the sport, and probably be tbe means of introducing great improvements in our models; for there is no doubt but what onr builders have gone to the very extreme in the way of length and depth, not from choice, but in order to produce tbe largest and most powerful vessel of a given tonnage." As the Thames measurement doubtleBS works well enough for English vessels, it would be unreasonable for Americans to expect English yachtsmen to change their mode simply in order to allow us to enter their annual regattas; but wo might at least be spared reproaches for not taking part in those regattas. No one who has Been the Guinevere and Rannhn oiin ajde could possibly believe that there is a real differ eucfl tons in tbeir sizo; and, as regards the statement luSdo by "An Oid Yachtsman" that many more hands ate TPQaired to handle the Sappho, I would simply state that vessel crossed the Atlantic in heavy weather with ten mi' beforo the mast. Although, as I eaid before, I dm not leave Amerioa with any intention of racing, ratbef than disappoint "An Old Yachtsman" and others, who, like him, may wish to know more of American yachts, I aur willing to Bail any schooner in England from the Nab round Cherbourg Breakwater aud back, oue or three races, to start in an eight or ten knot breeze. I will also give time according to any fair and equitable measurement, and will leave this question to any hree English yachta men, each owner having the selection of oue, aud the two thus selected to cbooao a third.

I name tbe above course as being ou open oue, frco from tho influence of currents and eddies; aud no oue will, I presume, contend that tbe superior local knowledge of a pilot has any thing to do wltb the speod or modeljof the vessel in which ho sails. I should require ten da s' notice in order to get my yacht in racing trim, and it would be a matter of convenience to me if the race could tako place within four or Are weeks from this time. Apologizing for having trespassed at such length on your valuable space, I am, sir, your obedient servant. Wm. P.

A correspondent of tha Boston Globe describes taom and the dervishes who make them hideous, as follows Sunday comes tbreo times a week in Smyrna. The Turkish day of worship iB on Friday, the day of Mohammed's Hegira Saturday is the Jewish Sabbath, and Sunday is supposed to be observed by tha "Franks" or English, Roman aud Greek Churches, On Friday "Isaac" came down in the morning to say that we eould Bee and hear the bowling dervishes, if we would Uke. So we started at about ten and followed him through the labarynthinal streets up to Turktown, stepped at length before a small, unpretending edifice. In front and between It and the street was a garden of tropical aud native plants and trees, low palms aud bright flowere purple olives and golden pomegraaatea shining in the rich, green foliage.

We entered through an ample gateway and crossed a mosaio pavement of little black and white stoues, to a paved oourt of the. same, wnicn surroundea cue ouuaing on urree siaes. On one aide was another smaller buildlug, open on the Bide, facing the larger one, into which those who took part in the ceremonies retired from time to time. We were not allowed to enter the building, but might look In through the doors and windows. Around tbe side of the large ball, or room, were old men with long white beards and flowing robes; young men wltb rich turbans and Bashes of orimson snd cloth of gold, little, bright eyed boys, with turban and fez and robes, like tbeir elder and Bterner looking companions.

Many wear a green turban, signifying that the wearer has made the pilgrimage to Mecca. All were seated in the Turkish manner, leaving a large open space in the oentre. Presently ono, in a long, flowing white robe, stood iu the centre of the room, and commenced the chant in a low, dismal tone. Then others rose, and formings oirele around him, took up the chant from time to time. Each one aa ho joined the circle, put his right arm around one neighbor's neck, and his left around the other's waiBt, the little boys Joining in the oirele with as much earnestness as any of the rest.

All the tlmo the low guttural chant continues Allah Heu I Allah Heu I as though the first word was pronsvneed with an inspiration, and the latter with an expiration of the breath. With tha first word, each one makes a backward step, and with the seoond, a step forward and In the same Urns In a direction around the ring. After a little time ono or two others enter tho circle and the howling begins, at first in a low wail, which is gradually intensified into a perfect shriek; then it becomes more quist; again it rises Into a fiercer howl, wild and abandoned; and dies, away at length into a plaintive wall; again and Ogata rises that single ory, as of a soul in deep agony, while throughout tha whole is heard the low, harsh monotony Allah Heu I Allah Heu like the subdued mutter lngs of some wild beast in pain. Indeed it ia almost impossible not to connect the. idea of pain with the.

whole ceremony. Tbe almost shuddering motion with which tbe circle of worshippers move around; the wild, lonely ary of mental anguish, and the low moan of animal Buffering, fitly expressed the words they uttered, as tbe guide told us when we asked wb.at.they said: "They pray to Goi; they say God have mercy; God have pity 1" And ha cautioned us as wa went away against repeating tho words within hearing of any Turkfc as it would give great offonBO and might ho. attended TOth unpleasant results. FOUND BROWNED. The naked body of a boy, apparently about twelve years of age, was found at six o'olook this morning, floating in tbo river foot of North Fifth street, B.

from whenoo it was removed to Parker's Morguo, corner of Union avenue and Nortb First Btreet. Judging from the odvanoed stago of decomposition the deceased had been in the water for several woeks. Tho hair on the head la block, or very early so. executed for the State of Missouri, is also at the Chicopee foundry, in process of casting, and will, without doubt, be finished in time to allow of its erec tion in St. Louis some time dur ng the present Autumn.

J. E. FREEMAN, N. A. Mr.

J. E. Freeman, one of the oldest members of the National Academy of Design, who for many years has resided in Rome, Italy, where he has suoce3BfuUy practiced his profession, has roturnod to this country, and will open a studio either in New York or Brooklyn Borne time this Fall, Mr, Freeman has been so long absent that his name is almost unknown to a majority of our younger art coUectors. To those who have visited Kome, however, hiB s'tudio and works are well known'. Mr.

Freeman, like many other American painters, at the beginning of his career received but' little encouragement at home; but as eoon as he became domiciled in Italy the scene changed, and Freeman of Borne was the recipient of commissions and honors unknown to a New York artist. The same cause baB sent to Kome during late years such men as Yedder, Innes, Colraan, Griswold, May, David Neal, and many others of equal ability. Mr. Freoman'a name is represented in many of our older private galleries as well as those of Boston, Philadelphia, Cincinnati, Baltimore and St. Louis.

He brought with him on his return from Europe a number of recent works which are to be placed on exhibition at au early day. Among the subjects are The Little Princess Luche3e Peasants The Last Look The Dying Model The Camice Rossa Tho Recording Angel The Fisherman's Wife and Child A Tuscan Peasant going to Market Cupid going to Market and others of importance. We have no recollection of ever having seen Mr. Freeman's name in the catalogue of the Brooklyn Art Association, although at the coming reception and ex hibition of the Society in November, this artist will no doubt be represented by some of his best works. Mr.

Freeman during his long residence in Borne en joyed the companionship of such able representatives of American art ae Randolph Sogers, Mosier, Crawford, Gibson, Gould, Story, Buchanan Read, Ives and others, and was an honored member of that interest ing colony of artists and sculptors. Mr. Freeman was elected an academician of the National Academy of Design in 1833, and is therefore one of the oldest members of that body, there being but three living who were charter members, namely Durand, Evers and Cummings, and date from 1826, Chapman, another member living in Rome, was elected in 1836, and Page, the present President of the institution, was alBo made a member at the same time. THE GOTJMIi OAIiIiBBY. There is now on exhibition, at the Goupil Gallery, a series of photographs after some of the most interest ing pictures which formed the French charitable col lection of paintings, given in aid of tho Chicago sufferers.

Tho series, as far as issued, consists of "The Welcome Visit," after Charles Edward Boutibonne "The Chicago Fire," after Charles Baugniet; "The 8ufferer'fl Gift," after Emile Saintin and the "Young Pompeienne," after Joseph Coomans. The associations conneotedwith this series of pictures will always prove interesting, and as a beautiful reminder of French charity this publication will be very acceptable at the present time. THE VIENNA EXHIBITION. It is not probable that the exhibition of works of American art at the coming Exposition or World's Fair at Vienna will be very creditable to our country, as Congress failed to make any appropriation of funds to enable our Commissioner to place the American De partment on an equal footing with tboae of the European nations. General Thomas B.

Van Buren is the Commissioner, and he is doing every thing that a man can da, who wcrks without money, to make the display on our part creditable. It is probable that money may be forthcoming from private sources for the purpose, and to repay the advances the new Congress will be urged to make an appropriation. The CommiBBloner's plans will be made known at an early day. EXCURSION OP THE RURAL CLUB. All About Allen And His Croat Glad loll.

An invitation was extended by Mr. C. L. Allen, to the Rural Club, to visit his flower farm at Queens. About seventy five members and friends accepted the invitation on Tuesday, and apent a day in the happiest manner.

A train, the first that had ever run over the track of the new Central Bailroad of Long Island, was placed at the disposal of the party, through the liberality of Superintendents Tuoker and Popenhuien, both of whom accompanied their guests, and taking every possible precaution against accident, BROUGHT THEM TO THE PABM at about eleven o'clock. Here a temporary platform had been erected, and a flag with no name floated in the breeze. When we aaked Allen why he neglected to show bis political colors, he answered that he did not wish to offend his guests, but that he voted for Greeley, H. G. is President of tho Rural Club, aud it was hoped that he wonld be one of the party, but the granite rocks of hiB native State attract him too strongly.

The morning passed while the visitors were escorted over the grounds, and were shown under cultivation over fifty acres of land, twenty five being devoted to flowers, the general effect of which was magnificent. Eight acres of gladiolas and lilies alone were in full bloom. There are five hundred different varieties, two hundred ef which are Mr. Allen's own seedlings. A beautiful specimen of the Clianthtta Damperi, the only one grown in the open air in the United States, was pointed out, together with many other plants with long Latin names, whioh were new to most of the party.

After a liberal lunch UNDER THE OAKS, Alderman Ely called the gueBts together, in a happy manner complimenting the host and the railroad officials for the general liberality exhibited. Mr. E. A. Taft spoke good humoredly and called himself a torpedo.

Mr. Tucker, calling himself only a popgun, followed, and he was followed by a rifle shot by Dr. Burdick, editor of the Gazette. Alderman Whitney, of the First Ward, Brooklyn, eontinued. Dr.

Hexamer, a fruit grower of fame, made a few very appreciative remarks, and informed ub that the only specimen of the yellow blooming lily to be found in the world was raised by Mr. Allen. Gen. 0. T.

Hnl burd told what he knew and flaw of Scotch heather, and paying a compliment to the handsomely decorated rustic hat of Mre. Dr. Hexamer, closed by alluding to the love of flowers as a means of healthful culture Mr. H. T.

Williams, one of the editorial staff of the ludrpendent, and Mr. A. 8. Fuller, of the Sun and Tribune, followed, the latter alluding to the fact that aome persons thought, two or three years since, that MB. ALLEN WAS OUT OF HIS HEAD in attempting to plant a large farm with seeds and bulbs for a flower garden.

Mr. Bragden, of Koore's Sural, made an eloquent little speech, and referred to the progress of floriculture, and to the humble part he had taken in promoting it, A queer ohick from New Hampshire told a stary about his native State, and stated that he knew two things about flowers, taught him in infancy by his grandmother, viz. the difference between a Bun flower and a cauliflower, and concluded by an allusion to James Fiflk'e love of beauty in the shape of flowers. Moses S. Beach, who had been absent admiring the farm, with two of the ladies of the party.

Miss Guy and Miss Richards, came back in time to say a few words, and Mr. Dodge, one of Brother Beecher's best brethren, finished the list of speakers. A vote of thanks was tendered to everybody, Mr. Allen responded appropriately, and Mr. Chick led is the hymn America." Laden with flowers the party returned to the dusty streets of the hot town.

Johnson was arrested and yesterday held for trial.

So was Brannigan, that is, for "arrested" read "detained." Brannigan was sent to the House of Detention. He may have dally employment and a family dependent on him for under ordinary circumstances, easily restrained there; while there is abundant reason for believing that our quarantine efficiency at the present time ia. at lonqt fully equal to any that has ever preceded it. out in seasons line tne present, our city sanitary authorities should be admonished that there are not only fruitful sources of disease at our doors, but urgent invitations to disease from without.

In order to wallow and gloat in our own avoidable sources of disease, of every oouceivable form, A. N. B. MR. BUTT ANlTjUlHxE JKEOGH.

A Brooklyn ITIiiii Prods the Memory or Increases the Knowledge ol a Brooklyn Paper with Regard to Them. The Evening Post publishes from a Brook lyn gentleman the following letter in correction of a misstatement based upon lack of knowledge on part of the IVioune. It relates to the position of two "Government" Irishmen who have attained a deal of notoriety, thankB to late occurrences. Mr. Mowatt Is their advocate and in this is supported by few of their countrymen in Brooklyn or "at home." The letter is aa follows To the Editors of the Evenin Post: The Tribune alleges thiB moraine, in a tiaram anli leauer mui iuo uaiway election not, wnicn gave prominence to Mr.

Ecogh, has also brought Air. Butt to tho fore; the sudden notoriety of these two men is one of tne oaa xeaiureB in tue long cnapter ol English misrule in Ireland." Where did tne writer in the l'aibune learn all this It would be impossible to tell. There was no "election riot" in Galway. There was an election petition beard there by Judge Keogh and decided. And his decision was confirmed by the full court, ait ting in Common Pleas, in Dublin, and not only confirmed, but the full court gave the seat, from which Judge Eeogh removed Captain Nolan, to bis rival, Captain Trench.

The Bight Honorable Judge Keogh gained his prominence in Ireland five and twenty years ago, and so, also, did Mr. Isaac Butt, M. P. Tho baro idei that tho Galway case has "brought Mr. Butt to the fore" must greatly amuse any intelligent Irishmen who read the Tribune.

Mr. Butt was the Professor of Political Economy in Trinity College, Dublin, when I was a child, in Counaught. He mado one of hla ablest speeohes in the City Hall, Dublin, in opposition to Dan. O'Connell, "tbe Liberator," when they were both aldermen of that city, nearly thirty years ago. Mr.

Butt has been in Parliament as a Tory, again as a Radical, and now as a Home Ruler. He is most decidedly the ablest man at tho Irish Bar. He has been the leader on some one Bide in every great trial in the Irisb courtB civil and criminal for twenty five years paBt. And yet is only now prominent I Tbe fact is that Judge Keogh and Mr. Butt havo both been "prominent" men iu Irish politioal lifo as long as the present generation of Irishmen remembe' anything.

What "sudden notoriety," then, has this "matior given to either Mr. Butt or Judge Keogh 7 whatever. They have each been notorioi' i rtinir respective fiolda of labor for fully Iwer i past, the Judge as a political trioksto' and aoveS ment hack, Mr. Butt as an honest, irm iriBh patriot. Yours truly, Jas, AiBJ Mowatt 282 Putnam avenue, Brooklyn, la To this, the Post adds, 8 lm2' rSSS, Pub details of tho famous 'Koogh noV 7, curiou" pied a share of Parliament K0U election riot, whioh attention.

The Galway has also brought 'e prominence to Mr. Koogh, toriety of th' to 'he fore; the sudden no the loi" two men is on0 ot the odd features in a chapter of English misrule in Ireland." And tbe Post continues: Although Mr. Butt and Mr. Justice Keogh were well known men in Ireland before tbe Galway election pelition, BtiU they were hardly known out of Ireland; whereas to day their names have obtained a wide circulation through the Anglo Saxon world. Our correspondent should remember, too, that the ZViowne's knowledge of the outside world is of rather a Chinese character.

HORSE CAB TRAVEL. Fault Found with One of Mr. Bichard son's Employes. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle I wouia like to follow the example of others, in using a brief space in your columns, in order to report a conductor of oar 38. AtlonHn New York line, who, I should Judge from his actionB, haja little too much whisky aboard, to allow him to iraat hta f.aaanoara irt half nl with others, took a transfer car on Monday morning going to East New York.

When we arrived at Brooklyn avenue tbe car for East New York, No. 38, waited until we reached them, snd then, without waiting for us a moment, proceeded on its way. There were Borne half a dozon ladies and gentlemen aboard, who expected to be trauefered to thiB car. The brute of a conductor would not listen to ua or the conductor of our car, but left us standing in the biasing hot sun thermometer about 88 degrees, and no shade any where near ub. Now, wbat kind of accommodation 1b this He could not have been moro than a moment late, if he had, he would not have waited until we reached him, and, considering ho was that moment late, it would have taken him only a minute to receive his transfer passengers.

You will oblige the writer, and I presume others, by giving this a notice in tbe Eaoiji. a Pasbxhoer. The writer of this note hurts a possibly good case he may nave by ooarse langnage. His complaint does not seem to have been made to Mr. Richardson's offices, oorner of Flatbush and Atlantlo avenuee.

There is the place whore complainta should be made, because there they are heard and rectified The disagreements and misunderstandings between passengers and conductors, who have to endure more for Icbs than any other human beings, are as old as horse car travel. There are always two sides, only one of whioh has been heard, and tbe narrator of that goes beyond what he hae to say to imply (without proof or assertion) intoxication of a man who may lose his dally support in oonsequence of this mere inference. Let folks be considerate lest they lampoon men out of their daily living. On the facts, as the writer tells them, the conductor waa certainly in the wrong. On the facts, as the conductor might toU them, the passenger could be made appear in the.

wrong. So it is impossible for a journal to judge, and the proper persons to do so are the railroad officials, wbo have an equal interest in being jnst to the public and to their employes. Neither the Atlantic avenue nor the City Road officers discourage complaints. On the oontrary, it is their daily business to act in a great many. The Eagle will bo gratified to turn aU these matters over to them.

Thero were no new developments regarding the clique movements and operators eeemed to be awaiting the result of tbe bid ding at the Treasury dato.
