New YORK, June 2l.-The American
Jockey Club bring their spring meeting
to close to day with a fine programme,
the most important of which are the
Weatherby stake, dash of a mile and
three-quarters, which will probably have
FIVE excellent starters, and steeple chase
handicap, also with FIVE starters. An
immense attendance is anticipated.
The weather this morning is clear and
cool.
The Herald to-day has a special from
Washington giving further testimony of
Captain Tyson, Esquimaux Joe, Fred
erick Meyers and Hannah, wife of Joe,
four of the Polaris survivors, from which
it appears that Captain Hall entertained
fears Of foul play, accusing Captain
Buddington and the Doctor of trying to
do him an injury. According to Joes
testimony, Captain Hall complained of
bad stuff in his coffee; that it burnt his
stomach. Captain Tyson states that the
papers rescued by Joe will probably be
all the papers belonging to Captain Hall
that will be recovered. Captain Halls
journal was burned, and from the testi-
mony it appears that Captain Budding
ton expressed himself as being glad
they were burned stating that they
were much against him and he got
Captain Hall to burn them.
The Worlds special from CONSTANT
nople says the illness of the Sultan has
become seriously aggravated, and fears
are entertained of fatal result OF his
disease. 1t is rumored that his case is
incurable.
The directors of the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company yesterday resumed
the consideration of the finances of the
company, but adjourned without coming
to definite conclusion. Dir Bellows
has resigned the Vice Presidency, and
will soon retire from the service of the
company. The directors anticipate
much good from the service of the iron
steamships now building, and predict
that they will be the fastest screw vessels

The jury in the case of Sharkey, on
