Troy, June 1G, 1871
The forenoon of Monday was devoted to
the reading of treatises on bridges, turbines
water-works and engines, by members Of
the graduating class. The faculty, citizens
and others interested were present The
execution of the drawings ILLUSTRATING the
various subjects, and the clear, concise
manner in which they were treated, showed
a marked thoroughness in engineering in
struction, as well as careful study of the
themes presented.
The most amusing features of the pro-
gramme for the week are the races, that
took place aboye the dam in the afternoon.
A number Of pleasure parties were out on
the water Row-boats, sail-boats and tugs
chartered Tor the occasion made the river n
lively scene. The day was all that could
be desired. There were three single souls
contrasting for the honor of championship.
Though the parties were not in as good
training as usual, some excellent rowing
was witnessed along the bank, and the mile
stake was handsomely turned.
The interest of those who enjoyed the
ridiculous was centered in a tub race One
who has never seen trial of skill by full
grown men in wash tub can form little
conception of the amusing scenes that take
place. 1t is one of the rules that only those
who have never had any experience in this
style OF workmanship shall compete.
Eleven ordinary wash tubs were pushed out
IRON the bank. They were occupied by
the contestants, dressed for the usual wet
ting that follows. With the back leaning
against the inside and the legs thrown over
the opposite, they paddle out with only the
use of a single. Some go round and
round, hardly getting away from the start

NEW YORK, June Is.

NEW DIRK, June 10.
THE FOLLOWING CUBAN NEWS
Is obtained from private Havana letter:
General Concha, under promise to send two
million dollars to the home government at
Madrid and also for the purpose of pur-
chasing supplies for his troops, recently
called meeting of bankers and merchants
and asked them to advance five million dol
lars to the treasury. The request was DO
litely but firmly declined. A deficit of ST.
200, 900 has been discovered in the military
bureau in this city, and several persons of
high rank have been arrested. General
Concha's attempt to keep the price of gold
down has signally failed. 1t was merely
a dodge, and a very poor one. In reality
the government does not sell dollars and
does not pay with any coin, but receives
bank bills at its own valuation.
AN EVENT
that has excited great interest here and in
Chill is the sale Of forged drafts to the Val
paraso Bank to the amount of e32 900.
The torgeries were committed by A. G.
Wendell a fast New Yorker, and son of
Dr. Wendell, who, when his son married.
gave Kim bridal gift of 500, 900 and
house in New York. The furniture, etc..
of Wendell was sold under the hammer.
and many Of the articles, owing to the
notorleiy obtained by the owner, brought
very high prices. The sale was made under
a writ Of execution in favor of the Val
paraiso Bank.
THE BUILDING TROUBLES
Hy order of the general council all brick
layers who receive less than - day were
expected to strike yesterday. 1t Is impos.
slble TO predict what the effect of this will
be upon the building trade, since the en-
ploye3 have not yet decided what course to
pursue. It seems certain, however, that
the rate Of wages will not be raised for all
the large builders in the city are determined
to pay no more than $500 day. A large
number Of men refuse to strike. MANY of
them are heartily sick of the labor unions
and will not he ruled by them any longer
HUMANITY TO CoNvICTs.
There is rejoicing among tue conyicts in
Sing Sing prison over the new commuta-
ton law, which took effect on the list of
June About one hundred and thirty men
and ten women have been discharged from
the prison since that time. A recently dis
missed convict, who had served out his
time, received $40, the amount earned by
oyerwork. Some others received over
two hundred dollars, but the majority had
done no extra work. A prisoner sentenced
Tor one year has two months deducted for
good behavior; for two years four months
are taken off, and so on in proportion.

THE YACHT CLUB ErGArrA

With heavy sea rolling and all the wind
that sails could carry, the annual regatta
of the New York Yacht Club, Monday, was
a splendid contest. Seamanshp and pluck
were as important elements as the models
and sailing qualities of the yachts them
selves. The Tidal Wave was the last ut
the start, but crossed the line far in adj
vance of her rivals. The fleet was smaller
than in past years, but nearly every yacht
had the prestige Of former triumph. In
all, it was Il ''red-lettcr day in the calcn-
dar of the club.

The "scalpers" and their Trade.

A new and thrifty trade seems to have
lately sprung up in various parts of the
country in the shape of selling railroad
tickets at secondhand. 1t Is said that
there are now some forty offices in this
country where tickets over any road,
leading from the city in which the Office
is located, may be bought at rates lower
than the company's. No Partially y
shown. This is how it works, tickets
of every road being on hand A person
in New York wishing to go to Cincinnati
can buy ticket for 800. Because OF
competition, ticket from New York to
Chicago, via Cincinnati, can be bad for
800. The fare from Cincinnati to Chi
cago is 80. Suppose the Chicago ticket
is purchased, the no der OF 1t is not com

Cincinnati he stops. He has paid out

he has in possession a ticket which at
any time will take him to Chicago, and
which is thus equivalent to SO. An
Office in Cincinnati will pay him 81 for
this ticket. and await a purchaser as So.
Again Tickets are often purchased at
the offices of railroad companies, which,
for unseen reasons, are not used, and
these come in 10 swell the business OF
the brokers' offices.

Administering Justice in Colorado.

From a letter recently received from
DeNorte, we extract the following de.
scription of scene which occurred in
the court there, in which j. G. Taylor,
formerly of Gerry & Taylor, of this city,
took prominent part
Taylor is counsel for defendant in a
divorce case now being tried before the
probate court. By the way the court is
ON ass, so to speak, as regards law.
During the whole trial Taylor's nerves
were taxed to the utmost to keep from
becoming angry at the rulings of the
court against him, when he knew he
was right. Finally when the Judge
made fearful ruling, Taylor sprang to
his feet, his face fairly blazing with
passion, and threw down the law books
on the table with such force that they
bounded high in the air. The Judge
turned pale as death and shrunk way
back in his chair with awe-struck coun-
tenance. The other attorneys (plain-
tiff's) also got out of the way, scored
neatly to death. Taylor shri-ked with
rage: Il throw up this case. / will not
practice before such court. By Cd
you might as we'll expect Hindoo to
keep track of the midnight marches of
the solar system as for me to keep track
of the rulings of this court, and the pet
tifogging of these attorneys. Get out
of my way (The last sentence to the
crowd.) Mrs. A. the defendant, wept
and chung to his coat-tails, crying that
she would have no other attorney. Tay-
lor tore himself loose and strobe out of
the room, the crowd parting like the
waters of the Red Sea think that was
the seal am little mixed on scrip
ture geography, when Moses fled from
Pharaoh. The court suspended until
Taylor cooled off, pacing up and down
outside, then sent for him in the name
of the defendant, ard he continued the
case. When he sat down the Judge said
in meek voice, Il would like to speak
to you moment, Mr.. Taylor Taylor
replied: You know Your rights, sir
you may fine me as much as you please,
but reserve yonr conversation for some
one else. The Judge fined him $40 for
contempt of court, and then RENTED
the fine. "-Denuer Times

Balky Horses.

The society for the prevention oil
cruelty to animals put forth tho follow.
ing rules for the treatment of balky
horses, which will bear reproduction:
/. Pat the horse upon the neck ex.
anime the harness carefully, first on one
side and then on the other, speaking en-
coaragingly while doing SO; then jump
into the wagon and give the word 90
generally he will obey.
2 A teamster in Maine says he can
start the worst balky horse by taking
him out of the shafts and making him
go round in circle till he is giddy. If
the first dance of this sort doesn't cure
him, the second will.
3. To cure balky horse, simply
place your hand over the hor els nose
and shut off his wind until he wants to
go. and then lie him go.
4. The brain of the horse seems to en-.
terrain but one idea at time; therefore
continued whipping only confirms his
stubborn resolve. If you cen by any
means give him new subject to think
of, you will generally have no trouble
in starting him. A simple remedy is to
take couple of turns of stout Irvine
apuRd the fore leg, Just below the
knee, tight enough for the horse to feel,
and tie in bow knot. At The frat
check he will generally go dancing off.
and after going short distance, you can
get out and remove the string to prevent
injury to the tendon in your further
drive.
5. Tak6'srss&f of the horse between
the hind legs, and tie it by cord to the
saddle-girth.
6. Tie string around the horses ear
