Cassldy, of New York, and John Wild, of Canada, on tne Union Course yesterday afternoon. Both men are representative runners, and well-known atnorg aporting" ciroles: but from some cause only a lew atteuded the affair. The Canadian appeared on the ground first, "stripped to the bun," excepting a scanty pair of blue tiphts. CuBsidy was similarly attired, but his color was red. In physical proportions there was little dif ference between the contestants, Wild beins the taller and more powerful of the two, while his opponent was a light weight, with limbs hardened and apparently adapted to running. Both had their hair cut short, making their heads look terrier-shaped and altogether very unattractive. Each was girthed with straps around the waist, and held in their bands some pieces of cork which they gripped bor(1 when they became exhausted. A iew be ts were oficred and taken, Cassldy having the choice. On the first heat the tu'nuing was slow, the intention ol the con testants bcini? to reserve their full powers to the last. Cassidy took the Inside track and lea elichttv over the first mile. The Canadian went ahead on the second mile, the speed being increased very little. On coming past tneTudges' stand the third time the gait began to get brisk, and the two seconds, who had been heretofore accompanying their respective principals, now turned back to meot them half way in readiness to sponge them and n.niatin their tongues with lemon iuice. Canada was in advance, going on a kind of Tertian lone, with his head Dait ot tne time tnun. an d his bunds raised to bis chest. Cas eidy kept on a regular pace, but did not go over the ground with the ease of hU competitor. Tim spcond. third, and fourth miles had been run Wild leading, and now the struggle for hfl'vlrdorv commenced in good earnest. They both doubled on their speed, but Wild kept gaining, and at the second quarter was 00 yards abead. lie gradually Increased this distance, and came to the winning post without any signs of jrreat exertion. The time for the whole five miles was 80 minutes and 22 seconds; the best time for a single mile was 6-47 on the firth mile. According to the agreement between Cassidy and Wild, the latter Is pledge to run any man in the United States, for Ave or ten miles, for any amount from $W00 to $5000. iV. J. Tribune. CITY INTELLIGENCE. For Additional City Intelligence see Third Page. Oub Street Musicians. The organ grinders, who have had the monopoly ot our street mucic lor so muny years, are now about to bo outrivalled by the Italian harpists, who are to be heard In all quarters of the city. The old time-honored hanrl-orgnns, which wore the delight of the oldest inhabitant when ho was a boy, and hts execration when he arrived at maturer years, are now making a grenter noise than ever to maintain their old time-honored importance. How often have we, when we were children, stood by with wondering amazement on our lacrs to behold the antics ol the monkey, or the incomprehensible movemsnis of the auto matic figures! Kven now there are some of these instruments that one can listen to wiih pleasure, as their rich heavy notes come out with all the swelling volume of a church organ, in the inidbtof the bustle aim confuolon ol tue business quarters of the cltv. Speaking of hund-orsaim. who Coes not know the old organ won an whose cupbonrl-lookingr ailair grmis out a most doleful aerie ot aucieut.tunes, that cun scarcely be heard across the navemont. when all else is silence. And yet the old woman appears to have an affection for that venerable instrument of torture. She lings it a she turns the dilapidated handle as If it were of her own flesh anil blood. I'.iit we would speak more particularly of the Italian harpist?. V it hie tho pat year or two there appears to have been an unusual influx of these people. Their music is really, in tn09t cases, vciy fine, and when accompanied by a tir.'t-rale vijltnift, is f-ir better than the more pretention mindc of the makritv ct our players on the piano. To the poorer classes ihe street music is almost the t-olo humanizing' agent that couic9 within their notice. Popular Excitements. It is a well known fact that tue American people are the most excitable peoplo in the world, not even excepting the Freuch. As a consequence of this they are in the seventh heaven of exhilaration and hope, or in tue very depths of depression. A most execllcnt example of i hi- U the recent excitement and subsequent depression on the subject of the Atlantic Cable. While there were some who considered that it was perfect, and would never nepd acy more care iu respect to its good work in?, there were other old fogies who did not believe it did or even would worir, mid 1 hat the report of its success was a hoax. The most reasonable part of the community, however, were those who could look at the thing calo.ly, and without excitement of any kind could' Judge of the benefits it would produce, und the mfiiculties it would encounter. For a tew day?, indeed, it seemed as if it had stopped working entiiely and no .v. by to-day's pauer. we ee that it has recommenced ntuin. We have received very important news from Europe, as w:ll be seen bv reference to our columns. There is no doubt that the working of the cable will continue to exhibit great fluctuations, and no uppaient means can be adopted to prevent them. Tne Worms on Our Shade Trees. A lew years auo when the measuring worm first bet'an to be troublesome, everybody was raising a tompeft iu a teapot about it. Tlie biatns ot our citizens were toxed to iuvent mesns to abate the nuir-ance. and the trees around our city were strung with curious devices to puzzle the worms iu getting up and down the irees. Now the reign of theso nasty worms is azain at its heiiht, and nobody neesiis to care aoout it enough to make any remarks or suggestions as to the ways and means of ridding our trees of their presence. The trees which are most liable to be attacked by the pests are the mulberries and map!es. It appears that ouo ereat cause of t he great quantity of thene veimin is the smill number ot birds' we have in and aro in I our citv. Although we have laws to protect all in sectivorous birds, et tboy no 30oner make their aopearance thau they are eluughterel right and left by our .youthful population. There should bo severer penalties than are now in Torce, and the law in this respect should be more rigidly entorced than it is. Coixfcting Monet under False Pre-lEM-iES. Ytsierdav alternoon Henry Thomas was arrested by utllccr Fitzginger, at Fifteenth and tireen streets, while collecting money for the allejeed benefit ot the Lincoln Hose Com pany. One of the members getting wind of the nefarious operations of the enterprising Henry Thomas, informed theonic.T, who made the urrcsT. It is not known how much he man need to collect before he was put in limbo, but it is not supposed to be any considerable amount. People cannot be too much on their guard in respect to the honesty of those persons who call around for subscript'ous for various charitable purposes. There are al wavs sharper and swindlers w ho are on the lookout to play on the better feelii gs of our citizens. Thomas wa held in $10H0 by Alderman Hutchinson for a lui ther hearing. Received of Stolen Goods. Yester day alternoon Mary Martin, who keeps a place at No. 26 Annapolis street, was arretted, and committed by Alderman Pnt'.inger, on the charge ot receiving stolen goods. It seems that fhe was in the habit ot receiving small articles Etolen by wharf rats in the neighborhood. Two ot those captured yesterday while in the act of robbing tne crates on Almond street wnart ot crockery and china, were also committed by Alderman Pottineer to testify against Mary Martin, in default of $500. Their names are Ann Lanigan and Acbie Shea. Several others were taken at the same time, but were dis charged to testify. Apsault and Battery with Intent to Kill. Last night John P. Bauford, who had been an employe on board the Market street ferry boat, but had been discharged some time ago, met one of the deck hands and struck bun on the head with either a black-tack or Dras knuckles, making a fearful gash. The man who was wounaed was insensibte for several hours. Bantord was arrested this morning about 130 A. jm., at water and cnesnut streets, aud was held by Alderman Bolder In default or $500 bail to answer. The Recent Rain. The country, which for the past few weeks has been suffering from an almost universal drouth, is now showing the nigniy penenciai meets ot toe rain ot last night, The fields of corn and the meadows which were almost withering under the ravs of the hot sun. and tne innuenoe ol the dry weather, have taken a new start. It Is ludeed refreshing to look at the alteied appearance ot every green thing that growB, unner us innuence. Stealing Stair Carpet. Yesterday Thomas Martin, a colored man, was arrested ac bixtn and Htzwater streets, bv Officer Mer er ters, with a roll ot carpet under his arm. As he could not give a good title to the possession of the carpet, he was escorted to the Second District Htatlon House, ' and at the hearing before Alderman Pottinper this morning he was committed in default of bail. The carpet is now at tne station iiouse awaiting an owner. Another IIouse Robbery.
