Oh OD IMOBoglioub IMILLIGEMB • ' The Steam Fire Engine Contest Great ?Kat in the &weal Palace, Lon 'don—The New York Engine fan and Other American Evince •on the Ground Exiting Trial of Skill and Strength—j'he American Engines Declared Beaten and "Nowhere." Jttne_2oth a series of experiments, in - - teresting in themselves, and in their result to be of the highest importance, was com• menced in the Crystal Palace gardens Lon don, with a view to test and ascertain by actual competition which is the best de; ecription of steam fire engine out of the • many different machines of the kind now made. The engines produced for trial were divi ded into two classes—the small class con - eistingof_those not exceeding 30 cwt.,and this large class of those exceeding 30 cwt, and not exceeding 60 cwt.; those weights not including coal, water, hose or -other gear. The premiums were .£2450 for the best engine, and £lOO for the second beat in each class. The chief points to' which the committee directed their attentioft, in addition to the. consideration of cost and weight,were those which relate to the gen , eral efficiency of the machines as fire en giiies,combiniug,among other points of ex - cellence, rapidity in raising and genera ting steam, facility of drawing water, the large .volume thrown, the distance to which it can be projected with' the least amount of loss, and simplicity, ahcessi ., - bility and durability of parts. ' One of the principal objects to be ascer tained being to define the. uantity of wa ter which each could project through the atmosphere to certain heights and dia tances, the committee prepared a set of water targeti and tanks, arranged in . such a mannerthat the water could be measured after delivery. These targets coneiteed of canvas hoods with circular openings of six feet in diameter, having • attached to each a tail or shoot, through which the water was conducted into agauged teak standing below,from which the thy delivere w ithin the opening ot the target could be read off by means of agradn ated index. . Among the many engines entered for ' the trial, Messrs. Shand & Mason, and Mr. Merry weather were the principal English competitors. The Manhattan— the chief American engine enteied—metl with an accident a ,short time before the day of trial, which prevented her entering the lists on the first day. The London • Timm, speaking of the American fire cond-' panes in general, and the New York Fire Brigade in particular, sap : " The Ameri can steam fire engines are as much be- bind the steam fire engisea of other coun tries, as that most pretentious political as glaciation, called the New Yerk Fire Brigade, is behind any other fire brigade in Europe in real usefulness. The ama teurs who constitute the fire brigade of the Empire City are wonderfully organized for political demonstrations, torch-light processions and the like, but fail on an important • point, being rather worse • than useless at a fire, and the New York Fire Brigade is if possible, badly imitated in these respects in all the Northern cities except Boston." In the first day's trial the Times gives theeuperiority to the engines of Shand & Mason, whose machines got up steam from . cord water in eight minutes, while the others were ten minutes in accomplishing it. They were also the first to throw their allotted quota of one thousand gallons through tneir target. It says, "the dis tance to which they projected their mas sive column of water vertically into the air, clearly overtopped the rather feathery shoots of their antagonists." and that the smoothness, with which their engine work ed was remarkable, while the American engine, was, or seemed to be tearing itself to pieces, and vibrated in such a manner, and exhibited such signs of straining that it appear d evident that it could never be relied on to work any time without break. ing down, &c." Speaking of the second day's trial, " each engine had to work by itself for two hours without stopping, drawing its supply of water up into the engine from a depth of eighteen feet, and delivering it through a hose no lfss than four hundred feet long, the _hose being laid from the lower basin, of the fountains up the steep incline along the bed of the cascades into the water temPles at the top. * * * * * * The American engine was unable to go through this ordeal, not being able to keep up steam enough for the great force required to raise ailed propel the water, ike." This trial Vic' place on the 2d day of July. On the 3d of July a third trial of the engines was had, during which the ma chines were passed through every conceiv able form of ordeal, and Oaring which one Of them —an American engine—broke down completely.* The American engine, which worked so violently, was tried by the severe test of drawing its water from a depth of eighteen feet, and delivering it up hill through a four hundred feet length of hose into the water temple. This was the most difficult test which any of the Ma chines had to undergo, but those of Shand & Mason and Mr. Merryereather went through it admirably. The Ameri can engine Alexandra broke its cylinder cover in its efforts to do the same, and was instantly rendered useless. The Manhat tan, which was seriously injured ,by turn ing over when being brought upon the ground on Tuesday, was tried. It was scarcely fair to try this engine, at all; but the American gentlemen, themselves wish ed it, and steam was got up accordingly. Before'it had pumped long, however, it was found to be too much injured to work with safety, and a crack which Its fly wheel had received when it fell over began to spread so fast that the machine had to be stopped at once. • The most important experiments were afterwards made to test their power in throwing a vertical jet into the air. The nozzles of the hose of the four competing machines were fixed upright side by side in a frame about ten feet high. The ill- ameter of the hose pipes used by Mr. Merry weather was 2 6.16ths of an inch, or more than an inch and a half. Shand and Matson used a nozzle of 22-laths of an inch, the Ammiean engine one of 21.16 the of an inch and Mr. Roberts' engine, one of 14-16 the of an inch. The latter, a small en gine (only 30 cwt. ) threw a steady and high jet, ashigh as one hundred and forty ft. in the air. All, however, were eclipsed in height by the jets thrown by Mr. Merry weather's and Shand & Masons, that from the engine of the latter firm, reaching at times chine upon 190 feet, if indeed, it Alid not overtop even this great altitude. Mr. Merrivieather's engine maintained the eel umn steadily at a height varying between I'r.o and 170 feet. Shand and Mason, with their slightly thinnet_ column, could al -ways overreach it by twenty feet or more. The A-merican' engine was literally no where, and, except during an , occasional tpurt, fifty feet was about its maximum. As the jets were kept close nor parallel with the tower, and only distant from its couple of feet, it was quite easy, Ilya corn panson with the stories of the tower itself, each of which is twenty feet high, to esti mate almost to a foot the height each jet wise thrown. The united efforts of all the nozzles.of course came down in a perfect -cataract of water. This last effort, which me exceedingly beautiful to witness, brought the trial to a close. It was a very geoeral opinion that - Mr. ,Merryweatlier had gained the Sat prize for large engines (60 cwt.) :and-Shand and Mason the first Pisa for liniall'(80 cwt.) For New Orleans , The steamer : Hiawatha , Captain Carson, ! was advertised to leave St. Louis' fcir 'New Orleans last Saturday. This lOoks_lihe as though the good time was again coming. The St. Lor is merchants are; ins extacies over her departure, and the papees state that they were loading her with an abund ance of freight, besides giving - her a cabin full of passengers.

On Saturday night about 12 o'clock, a negro who had been brought on here from Philadelphia.. by Mr. Kirkpatrick, for a substitute, was garroted on the corner of Seventh and Smithfield, streets- by three men, two of whom chi - iked' him. while_ the other robbed him.

Four hundred rebel prisoners, nearly all officers, passed through the city yester day, boffin:Mr Chilicothe. Hamblin's Combination. In conseqdence of the urgent solibita• tions of many of our citizens who owing to the ex.citements of the past week. have not been able to attend, Mr. Hamblin has consented to remain one week longer at Masonic Hail, and give a few more of hie inimitable representations. Thus far the performances of this troupe have been unexceptionable, and gentlemen and their families can spend a pleasant hour with them without fear of having their feelings outraged by any vulgar word'or act. The singing is really excellent, and the deline ations cf negro character, and extrava ganzas are of such a character as to extort a roar of laughter from' the veriest hypo condriac.

Nswneatr, N."C., July l7.—The Depart• went of Virginia, by a recent order from the Secretary of War, has been annexed to the Department of North Carolina, Ma for General J. G. Foster commanding, who leaves for Fortress Monroe to organ• ize his command. If the Government will furnish him with a respectable force, which it has thus far been unable to do, important and lasting results will at on"e be realized. The Raleigh Standard is in favor of a reconstruction of the Union, and thinks the probable terms of reconstruction be tween the North and South will be the adoption of a gradual emancipation eye tem by all the rebellious States, which North Carolina, in common with the other slave States, will accept, if the Govern ment will grant it. Notwithstanding the life of the institution is not in the least impaired by,thia war, as is generally be lieved at the North, nothing but a great standing army between the masters and the slaves could impair the institution, over which is thrown the shield of State and municipal laws, together with the in herent will of the Southern people. Hence these terms are the cheapest they can of fer, and the best the South can accept. The Wilmington Journal, an orignal secession sheet, in speaking of the assemb ling of the North Carolina Legislature on the recommendation of Governor Vance, ostensibly to consider the question of the Confederate currency, charges that other and more important objects occasion the called session. It bitterly denounces the Heconitructioniats as intending to Qv the Legislature as a means of accomplish ing other purposes. The Raleigh State Journal alleges the discovery of a secret political organization :tans° purposes are most infamous and treasonable, which, has doubtless ramifica tions throughout the State, and says that developtnents may swiftly be made, which will startle the most apathetic.

This was followed by two other procla mations calling on citizens to close their places ofi business, and ordering the ar• rest of all free negroes in the city, as they were wanted to work on the unfinish ed 'defenses on Morris Island. Daring the day some five or more transports ap peered off the harbor, and the Yankees during the day amused themselves by shelling two points on James' Island. The Charleston Courier furnishes the Lillew ing particulars of the fighting done on Fr; day: The morning was fair. Light,. fleecy clouds floated slowly over the deep blue firmament. Not a- breath of wind stir red through the branches, and the bay, and ocean were smooth and bright as a mirror. The air was hot, heavy and close relaxing the frame and beading the brow with drops of moisture. It was just the kind of weather to inflict the largest amount cf inconvenience upon the enemy in th - se turrr ted monsters, the pride of the Yankee nation. About daylight Friday morning. a bat tery of the enemy, of not less than fifty guns. together with about fifteen boat howitzers, mounted on the enemy's barges, and the guns fvui four monitors opened a tremendous fire on Capt. Mitch ell's battery, causing some havoc among both officers and inert. The fire from the boat howitzers was - particularly destruct' 7e. The sharpshoot ers of the enemy als. - ) did considerable execution by picking ;.lf the men at the guns. It was by one of these that the gallant Lieut. John Bee was killed, a Minis ball striking and passing through his head. The men, notwithstanding this terrible shower of solid shot, shell and bullets, stood to their gue&fobly, and it was not until they were completely ex hausted, and the enemy who had landed in force were rapidly approaching, that the order was given to retire. The enemy succeeded in capturing sev eral of our men, whose exhausted con dition prevented escape. Capt. J. Bay onet Macbeth and Lieut. G. Haywood are reported among the prisoners so taken.— It was stated yesterday that Capt Mitchell was at one time in the hands of the ene my, when his men rallied and succeeded in getting him away from his captors.— After the abandonment of the battery Capt. Mitchell's artillery men fell back with the infantry to Battery Wagner. The enemy's infantry then threw out a line of skirmishers and advanced, forming three lines of battle across Gregg's Hill to Vin• egar Hill. The 121 it regiment S. V., Major Mc- Iver commanding, and NelsDn's battalion, together with the artillerists, all under the command of Col. Graham, were sent for watd to oppose the enemy's farther pre green. A severe fight ensued, and our tortes gradually fell back to Battery Wag ner. Two desperate but unsuccessful at ' tempts to carry the battery by assault were made by the Yankees. In both assaults the enemy suffered terribly, teav• ing a large number of their dead and wounded on the field. The Yankees after this fell back to Vinegar Hill. It is said they took and still hold possession of Col. Graham's former headquarters. The enemy, after falling back, received re-enforcements, and made a show of again moving against the battery- The force of the enemy en gaged Friday is nucposed to have been about four thousand. Our lose in killed, wounded and missing, will probably be about three hundred. The firing 'on both sides ceased abou half-past a, when the, Monitors withdrew The report that one left during the en gagement in a crippled condition was un true, The whole tour were engaged through. out the action, and in the afternoon their fire upon Battery Wagner was very severe. We learn, however, that the batterY was very slightly injured, an officer, who ob • served the effect of our shots, says they struck and rolled off the sides and decks of the Monitors like so many marbles or pebble-stones. Capt. Haskin a and Lieut. Bee's bodies fell into the hands of the en emy. Drs. R. B. Manahan and Priolean are said to be prisoners in the hands of the enemy. Capt. Laudon Cheered, an accomplished and very efficient officer of the engineer corps, was killed almost instantly by a Theft frorn-a Monitor' exploding in Batte ry Wagner, and striking him in the head. His body was brought to the city last evening. . Fort Sumter opened on the turreted monsters and the Yankee infantry on the south end of Morris Island, with what result we are unable to say. The lien doubtless will be renewed to day with greater fierceness than any we have yet seen, IThe enemy has certainly shown a deep laid plain, and is determined to push it. The following is a list of the kill.d and wounded among the officers, F.iday, on Morris's Island : Killed—Capt. Charles Haskel, Capt. Langdon Cheeves, Lieut. John Bee. Wounded—Capt. Cap.. Ford, Lieut. Alston, Capt.. Wild, Thomas, Capt. Tarrin. Missing—Capt. Howard, Lieut. A. P. Craig, Capt. Reddy, Lieut. Woodward.
