THE MORNING STAR DISASTER .

Severe Reflections Upon the OHicers md Crew.
The Detroit Post publishes the following addi-
tional statement by Mr.. John II. Garrett, Of that
city,
As sufferer by the loss OF the steamer Morning
Star, wish to say something concerning the disas
ter and the management Of officers on board after
the collision took place. Much seems to have been
said in favor Of the active efforts male TO save the
lives OF passengers none worthy OF the occasion
came TO my knowledge IL may seell severe
it. For Captain viger and his first oficer / have
feelings OF the highest regard; but that the actual
facts should be known consider better thah any at.
tempt to put false appearance on the matter.
statements that have seen say that II was blow

light and the sea could not be called heavy, but
more 0f a swell than otherwise. speak OF this to

were capable Of holding from twenty to thirty per-
sons but one left the steamer with ten or twelve
persons. The mates and composed their cargo.
one lifeboat the hurricane roof was filled by the
steward and fourteen OF the crew aud passengers.
Another lfeboat remained on the roof, which was
launched after daylight. I was with my wife and
among the ladies and children collected In the after
cabin, and ] knew that no order or request was
know at that time that any had been launched Does
II not seem reasonable that If any request of that
have gladly avaied themselves OF the opportunity
captain .ger passed through the cabin perhaps
four minutes before the boat went down. standihs
beside my wife said 'Captain, Is this bad lob ~
HIS reply was ~ am afraid so you had better pre-
pare sa, ,or any emergency." Does that look like
The whole truth OF the matter summed up is
this:-That the boats lowered were filled at once by
the crew, which, instead of remaining and nlling u
TO their carrying capacity pulled away toward the
shore, and when daylight came were miles away
That the crew could not have been prevented from
say, buf that any attempt TO load them with the

Interesting Races-The Horses and Winners-
New Workers Badly Beat.
BosTON June 81. 1858.
Some races Of unusual interest took place at the
Mystic Park, in Madrid, yesterday afternoon. The
weather was fine and there large crowd OF
spectators present, including considerable number
from New York. The first race for all horses that
have beat 2:30, mile heats best three IN nves
and the purses were $500 and 5000. There were Sig
competitors, being the bay gelding Colonel Maynard,
ing India Rubber, the sorrel gelding sorrei
Dan, and the bay geldings Lexington and ..
Bradley the positions OF 'he n0rses ~, az rane ene
and during the intervals between the few nrst heats
the New Workers bet freely on the Bradley horse ana
their wagers were promptly accepted by the bos-
tonians.
On the first heat Lexington shot ahead, and at the
quarter pole was couple Of lengths ahead, and the
Bradley horse was in tie of oil. India RUBBER
Mcclellan and Maynard were even for moment, anu
then Rubber shook them and went Tor lexington an.
even passed him ana took the lead by about length
and half In 2:29H Mcclellan ran badly ana came
in second but that position was awarded TO- LeXlng-
ton instead and the Colonel was declared tlrd brau
ley fourth and Sorrel Dan last.
On the second heat as in the the, hrst,
Lexington made dash for the lead but Rubber con-
tested him and went ahead and all the other horses
came up closely, and for time 1t was exceedingly
doubtful which would be the victor; SoIonei a9 ehs Wom
being second Mcclellan third Bradley fourth,
| SOrre Dan fifth and Lexington sixth and last
| between Mcclellan and Colonel, Bradley chasing
| them closely all the way on the hOmestretch. NC
Clellan made break and Colonel went ahead ana
came In first, in 2:27h. The third position was gwen
to Bradley and SOrrel Dan and Lexington were such
long distance behind that they were declared dis
tanced.
On the fourth heat, consequently, there were only
four competitors. The fight for the lead was between
the Colonel and Mcclellan, Bradley remaining aboue
four lengths ahead. Mac finally got the advance and
Kept until the last quarter, when an interesting
rush resulted In the Colonel outf0oting him and win
ming the heat race by short neck In 2:27 Bradley
was third and Rubber was declared distanced:
The time of the winning heats was 22e, 2:27h ana
227. The Bradley horse losing the race caused
much despOndency among the New Workers VINO had
bet so freely on him.
The second race was between horses that had
never done better than 2:34, and there were three
competitors, vz:-The gray mare Nellie Lock, the
gray gelding Gideon Weles and the bay mare
Lady Walter The race was almost entirely between
Nellie and the Lady, and the first named won in
three straight heats, but every one OF them was

A MASONIC IMPosToR.-The Masonic fra
ternity are cautioned against an impostor
styling himself Corporal G. A'Lord, who
has been selling pamphlet in Indiana, and
imposing himself on the brethren. A'Lord
is about five feet four inches in hight, and
sOlidly built; has swarthy complexion,
straight black hair, black eyes; face shaved
cleanly, with the exception of a heavy
dark Id mustache, slightly tinged with gray.
He wears usually dark blue military vest
and blouse. On his right cheek is a black
patch, which he claims covers running
sore. He is quick, shrewd, and quite fluent
and intelligent in conversation; speaks
English and French; makes frequent and
pretentious display of Masonic iewelry,
especially of silver keystone, having upon
it, as mark, a mortar and pestle. e
In his book, he states that he belonged to
company G, Hundred and Twenty Fifth
New York Volunteers, and that he was
wounded in the spinal column, rendering
him incapable of supporting himself and
family otherwise than by the course he has
adopted.
Having made gross misstatements as to
his Masonic standing, the Fraternity be-
lieve him to be humbug and an impostor,
and requests exchanges to post their read
ers as to his unworthiness. When last
heard of, he was at Terre Haute, Ind.
