im e T w entvone Mile Trot at Riverside
Park, Boston.
BOsTON Nov, 16, 1866.—The twenty-one
mile race Inside of an hour at the Riverside
Park today *as a failure in every respect.
It was the first attempt to perform such a
'feat ever made by any horse in the world.
and, from the success McGowan achieved,
it is well to believe that a successful attempt
never will be made. The owners of the
Morse wagered $5,000 against $1,500 that he
would perform the unparalleled feat, but
the outside bets were almost five to - one that
be would not, and very few offering such
-odds found takers. The horse had - trotted
about a year since 20 miles. in 58 minutes
.tend. •25 seconds, which now stands
as the best tithe on record. The track was
very bad to-day, a heavy rain having fallen
during the night, but even with a good day
and a good track it is not generally believed
that the twenty-one or even twenty miles
would have been performed in an hour. At
the end of the thirteenth mile, which was
done In 38.52, the horse was drawn by order
of the owner. Thethirteen miles in the race
a year ago was performed in 37.30. The
quickest mile made to-day was the second,
which was done in 2.431, and the longest
was the thirteenth, which was done leisurely
in 3.58. The average time made was about
three minutes per mile. There was a great
number present from New York and other
distant cities.
Another account says :
The word "go" was given at 5 minutes of
4 o'clock, and the horse started off in splen
did style, the thoughtful crowd watching
-with profound silence his uniform step and
motion as he shot round the course. Hiram
Woodruff, Jr., his driver, sat behind him
motionless as a statue, looking neither to
the right nor to the left, riveting his atten
tion on the gelding as he sped over the
0-round.
The first mile was made in three and a
half minutes in an easy gait, and on the
horse went, the party in interest near the
Judge's stand giving the driver the time at
each half mile, and how many miles, in
order that he might send the horse along at
a given rate as with a steam gauge to guide
him.
The second mile was made in 2.431.
After the tenth mile it was obvious that
-the heavy and slippery condition of the
track was proving a serious drawback to
, the horse, for he showed signs of working
hard. The - reins lay loose upon his back,
.and his driver was compelled to urge him
Along with the whip.
• The first ten miles were trotted inside of
time, with from ten to twelve seconds to
spare.
On the thirteenth mile the Captain stopped
deliberately of his own accord, and thus
ended the long talked of trot.
To say that disappointment rested upon
every face would convey but a faint idea of
the feeling that pervaded the immense con
course of spectators. After the ninth mile
was accomplished hope ran high, but there
could be read in the countenances of the
backers of the Captain that failure was in
evitable on such a slippery track. During
the eleventh mile these fears were realized.
The gelding showed considerable distress,
and had to be encouraged by talking to him
and persuading him with the whip. On the
twelfth and thirteenth miles everybody
gave up the match as lost, but no one ven
tured to question the ability of the horse to
.perform all that had- been promised, pro
vided the track had been in a fair condition.
The following is the time table:

The bets of three to one that the horse
would not trot the distance in the timespeci
ned, of course went with the race.
.The-veterinary surgeons on the ground
immediately examined the Captain and pro
nounced him all right. He discussed his
supper with usual relish and during the
evening exhibited no signs of prostration or
illness, under the careful attention of his
custodians.
The eager curiosity of the great crowd of
spectators having been partially satisfied,
it was not long before the grounds were
deserted, and all wended their way home
ward, satisfied with the performance of
Capt. McGowen under such adverse cir
cumstances, although at the same time
there was great disappointment manifested.
There is no doubt but the twenty-one miles
could have been trotted inside of the hour,
had it not been for the bad track. It is not
probable that Captain McGowen will be
matched against time again this season.
FROM NEW YORK.
NEW YORK, Nov. 17.—The storm which
prevailed on Thursday night and yesterday
morning proved very damaging in its ef
fects. The wharves and piers were seri
ously injured. One hundred feet of the
wharf at the foot of Clarkson street, gave
way, and fell in. The rear of a building in
process of erection in Brooklyn, was blown
.7:limn, and crushed through a dwelling
house, but nobody was injured. The storm
also prevailed to a considerable extent
along the Hudson.
A malignant form of typhus fever is pre
vailing in some of the up-town public in
stitutions, particularly in the Deaf and
Dumb Asylum and in the female ward of
the Catholic Reformatory, foot of Eighty
sixth street, East river.
Shortly before eleven o'clock last Thurs
day night, a fire occurred in the brick edi
fice 1.12 and 114 Myrtle avenue, Brooklyn,
known as Granada Hall, entailing a loss of
*4,500. The lower part of the building was
occupied as stores, and the upper part as a
meeting room for masonic, odd fellows and
- temperance societies.
William A. Marsh, a boy sixteen years of
age, on Thursday forged ttie name ofJames
A. Dorman to a check for $20,000 on the
Sixth National Bankand presented it. The
clerk would have paid it, as he baloved
signature to be genuine, but Mr. Dorman
did not have that amount in bank, and be;
coming- suspicious he sent fora detective..
The boy, when arrested, confessed to the
forgery, and was committed for trial, bail'
being refused.
Last evening Mr. Henry Vincent delivered
an oration on the late great American con
flict and the friends and enemies of . Ame
rica, In theaJnion Hall of, the Cooper Insti
tute, to a large and highly appreciative au
dience.
Judge Michael Connolly was nominated
a candidate for Comptroller by the Demo
cratic City Convention last evening.

From Constantinople—Foolish Experi
ment of a Party or Americans.
CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. 17.—1 mentioned •
in a letter, written several week ago, that a
party of Americans (two young men and a
boy) bad started from Smyrna for China,
overland. They took no interpreter,
not even a servant,although neither of them
knew a word of the language. They simply
supplied themselves with defective maps
and a small conversation book. With two
horses for the three, and no money except
American gold and greenbacks,they started
on their Quixotic expedition. The boy ran
away and came back to Smyrna the second
day, but- they returned for him and
started again. The company are now
in Constantinople, having met with
just such an experience as I sup
posed they would. When about seven
hours from Afiou-kara-hissar they were
stopped by a party of Turks, who demanded
to know who they_were, (km The Ameri
cans could give no answer, as their conver
sation book had not anticipated any such
experience. The Americans were well
armed, but made no resistance. They only
stood in stupid amazement, waiting to see
what was to turn up. The Turks were evi
dently puzzled by these strange fish, but
finally concluded that they must be bri
gands or runaway Cretans, or something of
the sort, so they pitched upon them, took
away their money and their arms, and
brought them in triumph to the nearest
village. They exhibited them there as
robbers just caught, and the whole
town turned out to see the show.
The women pelted them with
stones, the children spat on them and the
men beat them unmercifully with clubs,
&c. It was all in vain the travelers threa
tened the Turks, in the best of English,
with the vengeance of Andrew Johnson.
When it came night they were bound with
cords, and in this wretched plight remained
twelve hours. These poor fellows were
really in a very critical position here. Their
inaine , expedition had ceased to be a joke.
It is really a wonder that these half-savage
Turks did not make an end of theta, for
they probably had no idea that they were
respectable people who would ever be in
quired for.
The next day the Turks carried their
prisoners to the nearest town. Here the au
thorities attempted to examine them, but, of
course, could make nothing of them. So
they took off their ropes and put on Ithains
instead. That night was spent in this miser
able condition. Next day they were sent
in heavy manacles to Afion-kara-hissar,
where they were fortunate enough to find
a traveling agent of the Incitterial Ottoman
bank, who could act as interpreter for them.
The moment their story was understood
they were set at liberty, and the Governor ,
of the place caused their captors to be ar
rested in turn. Soldiers were sent to the
village to search for their effects, but they
only found $2 in money, and a few articles
of clothing. The Americana borrowed money
from the agent of the bank and came over to
Breussa, where the Turks were also sent by
the tioverror of Afiou-kara-hissar.
The whole party is now in Constantinople,
and they demand the punishment of these
Turks as well as the restitution of their
property. The American gold is worth
nothing in the interior, because it is not
known there. It will be easy to recover this
but they say that the Turks, not appreciat
ing the value of greenbacks. tore all these
up, together with certain bills of exchange
. on Tiflis.
Our Minister has demanded the punish
, ment of the Turks and the restitution of
everything lost, either by the robbers or by
. the inhabitants of the district where the
robbery was committed.
These Turks will undoubtedly be pun
ished in some way, and they deserve it.
The money, so far as it can be proved that
any money was lost, will be paid by the
Government, and twice or three times this
amount will be ground out of the innocent
people of that vicinity. But really, the
Americans, who claim to be correspondents
of the 21 ew York Herald and Harper's
Monthly, deserved some part of what they
suffered, as a punishment for their folly. If
they had not met with any such accident as
this, they would, probably, have died on
the road this winter, long before they
reached Tiflis. Their names are Stanley,
Cook and Noe.

Death of Major William B. Lewis, the
Friend and Adviser of General Jackson.
We are called upon to chronicle the death
of another old citizen. Major William B.
Lewis, one of the oldest and most highly es
teemed citizens of this county, died at his
residence, near Nashville, yesterday. He
was,we believe,about 82 years of age. Major
Lewis came to this county at an early day,
and has witnessed the growth of Nashville
from a small village to a comparatively
large and wealthy city. He was the intim
ate personal friend of Gen. Jackson,and there
was no man in the State so thoroughly ac
quainted with the history of political pax
ties during the Administration of the old
hero. He had served with Gen. Jackson
during the war df 1812 and the Indian wars
of that period, and')upori the election ofthe
latter to. the Presidency, Major Lewis re
paired to Washington with him, and was
his trusted friend and confidential adviser
during his administration. With the re
tirement of Gen. Jackson, Major Lewis re
turned to his home on the banks of the
Cumberland, where he resided in compara
tive retiracy until his election to the .Legis
lature last year. In the troubles which
culminated in the late civil war,
Major Lewis was a devoted, Mk: -
faltering friend of the Union, and he re
remained firm in his faith throughout that
terrible struggle. The war over, he exerted
himself to heal up the wounds it had left
upon the body politic,and when his motives
as a legislator were impugned, he resigned
and appealed to his constituents for an In
dorsement of his course, and they re elected
him by a very large majority, bat the party
having control of the 'Legislature referred
his credentials to the Committee on Elec
tions, and that Committee never reported
on his case. A. few weeks since Major Lewis
disgusted with the course of the dominant
party in the Legislature, resigned the seat
to which he had been elected.—Rashville
Despatch, 13th,
W. W. CORCORAN has made a proposition
to give to the Government his magnificent
estate, lying two miles from Washington
city, for a Presidential Park, on condition
that the Committee appointed by Congress
to select a suitable spot shall locate the park
on and around it. Counter influences are
being exerted, with a view to the location of
the park northwest of the city, where the
face of the country presents superior natural
advantages for executing the designs of the
Government on a magnificent scale, and the
Chairman of the Committee has appointed
an early day on which to examine the ad
vantages of this locality with the senior
Mr. Blair. It is probable, notwithstanding
Mr, Continues handsome offer, that the
northwestern part of the city will be se
lected on *account of its excellent adaptation
to landscape and ornamental gardenings.
TH DAILY EVENING BULLETIN : PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 17,1866.---TRIPLE SHEET:
Robbery of the Beaver County Treasury—
Safe Blown Open, and 88,009 Stolen. ,
The office of the Treasurer of teaver
county was entered by burglars s day
morning, at an early hour,' the s I lown
open by ,meani of guhpewder, and about
eight thousand'dollars in national currency
stolen. _The thieves . effected an. entrance
through the outside * door by breaking it
open with a cioWbar,which they left behind
them,together with a pick and some rail
road chisels. Having obtained access to'
the safe, they drilled two holes through it,
one in the top and , another near the bottoms,
in which they placed the gunpowdor. The
charge must have been a large one, as the
safe was blown nearly' to atoms. The
shock produced by the explosion was so
'great as to shatter the building to such an
extent that it is considered dangerous for
occupation. The noise , was heard by per
sons residing at a considerable distance
from the building. The thieves made good
their escape, and no one yet has the slight
est suspicionas to who were the peipetrators
of this audacious robbery.—. Pittsburgh
Post, Friday.
-Rom ISLAND.—In 1835 that* was but one
house within the present city limits of Rock
Island, Illinois. In 1840 the first newspaper
was started; in 1844, the first church was
built; in 1849 the , thriving little town ac
quired a city charter and a telegraph office.
In 1854 the prosperity of the city was as
sured by the completion of the Chicago and
Rock Island Railroad. In 1860 the popula
tion was 5,600; in 1866, 11,000. The total
annual assessment for 1865 was $31,046 23.
The annual exchange sold by the Bank of
Rock Island exceeds $2,000,000. The manu
factures of the city, are quite extensive.
There ate two coal mines now in operation
near the city. The yield of the larger is
from 1,400,000 to 1,700,000 bushels per an
num. The city has a fine system of public
schools.
, AT Staunton, Va., on Wednesday even
ing, an accident occurred at Wyman's exhi
bition, which came .very near terminating
seriously. Just before the performance com
menced, and while the stairs which led into
the ball were densely packed with ladies
and gentlemen, says the Charlotte Chronicle,
the whole stair-way fell two stories to the
cellar, bringing down everybody with it,
Fortunately no one was badly injured.
although all were greatly alarmed. Just at
this juncture the cry of fire was raised, and
for a few moments the excitement was in
tense; but the strong presence of mind of
Mr. Wyman and agent restored quiet, and
the performance terminated. The entire
audience was passed out of the hall one at a
time, over a gang plank.
DROWNING OF THREE THOUSAND CRE
TAN ItismaciEwrs.—The cable despatches, a
few days ago, announced the drowning of
3,000 Cretans, who had taken refuge in a
cave. A Greek, Aristides Xenos, writes to
a London paper denying the story. He
says—" Allow me, sir, in fair justice to hu
manity, to inform your readers that in
Candia there is no tide—as Lord Byron
called it an 'untideless sea;' and, besides,
though there be one it would never reach
Melidoni, as it lies high up in the moun
tains. Therefore, the loss of the 3,000 and
also the submission of the insurgents must
be a fabrication emanating from a Turkish
source." Discredit was thrown on the story
by all the English press.
THE Iron Mountainßailroad, of Missouri,
has been sold to J. J. McKay and others, re
presenting Eastern and SL Louis capital, for
$550,000. The Cairo and Fulton Railroad
has been also bought by the same parties.
for $350,000, but the sale is not yet ratified
by Governor Fletcher.
