RAcEs.-For to-day's race over the Metarie
Course, we are to have the $1,000 Sweepstake for
three year olds which has caused great sensation
in the betting circles for the last month. In this
stake there are eight nominations three of which,
we learn, will certainly start Voucher, Wagner
Temptation, a Trustee; and Glencoe, who has to
win name. The most fashionable blood, of the
country here contends for supremacy. Voucher is
the favorite but, judging from the races of the
previous week, the knowing ones " are at fault,
ms the odds, in every instance but one, lost. For
the two-mile purse, there is old fvorite, Buena
Vista /; Doubloon, the " crack of Kentucky and
a nameless three-year old from Alabama. :. This
is sport enough for one day and we advise all,
partial to good horses and fine racing, to attend

The New York AppOin m Is.

BY our telegraphic dispatches from Washington,
published in another column, 1t will be perceived
that in regard to the New York appointments, the
long agony is over, and the highly respectable
ofice-seekers and politicians with which the city
abounds, may at once cease their music, their m-
portunity, their intriguing, as well their abuse Of
each other
These appointments were not expected to be
taken up by the cabinet for a week yet. and they
WILL therefore, surprize our politicians somewhat. 1t
will be perceived, as we indicated few days since
,nai neither Ex-Governor Young nor Ex-Mayor
Brady, has got the Office of Collector; but that it
has been given to Hugh Maxwell, Esq, the gentle
man whose name was last mentioned in connec-
ton with it, The rival cliqucs probably abused each
other so much as to induce the President to give it
to third party. But if neither got this fat office,
both have been given other government situations,
with view perhaps, on the part ofthe administra-
ton, of conciliating the cques to which they re-
spectively belong. Ex-Governor Young has been
made Sub-Trcasurer, rice Ex-Governor Bouck;
and Ex-Mayor Brady Postmaster, rice Ex-Mayor
Morris, the present incumbent This policy of con-
ciliating the rival cliques may fail if Mr. Young
should decline the Sub-Treasury, of which there
is rumor. There would then be fat in the fire in
earnest
Our politicians, who, in their own opinion, consti-
tutc the whole country will breathe easier and more
freely now that these appointments have been dis
posed of. The gentlemen appointed are all good
citizens, highly honorable men, and well qualified
to discharge the duties of their respective Offices
We have no doubt that they will give general salts

thus city, last evening, at an early hour, and we are
consequently enabled to lay before readers full
details of the important intelligence which she
conveys to us from tie old world and whch is
one week later thin what we were previously in
possession Of. Our limits prevent us from giving
as much as we woudlike to lay before our readers,
but we shall continue publishing extracts and cor
respondence, until all the interesting portion of it
shall have been before them.
1t will be seen from this intelligence, that the
European continent is far from being composed;
that the Ausirians meeting with severe checks,
and that general European war is not very i'm.
probable. Our space to-day forbids our entering

The City Authorities and the Theatrical
Excitement.

Our new Mayor and Common Council have been
in Office a little over week, and a very exciting
time they have had of it, The Mayor, Mr.. Wood
hull, has shown great deal Of firmness in sup
porting an actor, and forcing him down the
threats of the people, mocns ro ms, on the stage of
the Aston Place Theatre, at the dictatlon of few
individuals belonging to the highly respectable
ar;stocracy Of the upper portion of the city.
In conducting this business, our new Mayor and
his co-laborers have no doubt, shown great deal
of firmness. and we hope that the same spirit will
characterize their administration of our municipal
affairs, in other respects, during the year Let
see in what manner they can advanageously dis
play this spirit. This at once suggests the
streets. For some years past, our streets have
been disgrace to our city; they have been
knee deep with mud in rainy weather, and
knee-deep with dust in dry, which, when agi-
tated by the wind, penetrates the clothing and
lungs of the inhabitants, and Injuries goods in
stores, to an incalculabc amount every year. Now,
we submit to his Honor, the new Mayor, and to
the gentlemen composing the legislative depart
ment of our city government, that the streets open
field for their enterprise and iimness. Let them
display those qualities in removing the mud and
filth which, at the present time even, lie in our
throroughfares, engenderng disease, and emitting
a stencil that none but New York nostrs can stand
That dreadful scourge, the cholera, is lowering
around us. 1t is approaching the metropolis, and
if we escape its visitation it will indeed be MGR
cy. Let us not invite it by dirty streets.
Then, again, there is the subject of the taxes. 1t
is well known there is no necessity for their being
so high. Surely the government of city like this
can be conducted at less expense than three mil
lisns of dollars per annum! But there is no In
enumerating the catalogue of grievances which the
unfortunate people of New York have suffered I'M
der for number of years past. All we wish to
say is, that we hope the new Mayor, and the whole
government will show the frmness and de-
termination in cleaning our streets and reforming
the abuses of our city government, as they have
shown in extinguIshng the excitement caused by
Mr. Macready performing against the wishes of a
portion of our citizens, and supporting hun by
large military force, at the dictation Of another
class of the community.
