And they were and are a great curiosity. An extensive pntirle then, some sixteen or twenty miles long and , nearly &b many broad, haying the hills or back bone Of the Island on the North, Wd the oceah on the South as boundaries. One can well imagine tho appearanco of this plain,which though covered with grass and bashes was entirely withont trees, and upon which it was diffi cult to find a wave-washed stone which had not been ground down by ages of attrition to a mere 'Jack-stone” pebble. In 1728 an act was passed to prevent setting on fire the old grass which even np to reoent times is easily put in combustion by sparks from the loco motive.

This beautiful village has now a population of up. wardB of 2,000, three elegant and well sustained church es, Episcopal, Presbyterian and Methodist, a fine semi nary, a free school, a privato classical school; two week ly newspapers, excellent hotels. Five brooks of water run throngh it, and its level being near that of the sea, tbe best of water is fonnd quite near the surface. Al though part of the village la upou low land, yet there are ridges npon which dwellings are built giving it a vared and lively appearance. It Is pervaded by a general air of neatness and attention to tastful ornamentation, HEMPSTEAD PARK, On entering the compact portion of the village from the west, the eye Is at once attracted by the elegant im provements, wbich have, converted tbe eboal and mud dy pond called Burleigh Pond, into a symmetrical and clear basin of wator, and redeemed a few noisome and marshy acres from more and stagnation, to lilt upon tbeir surface a splendid growth of ornamental trees. These improvements are attributable to the unstinted liberality of William Henry Donna t, Esq., wboss privato residence is near, embosomed ln shrubbery. It is now but some eight or ten years since this Park was laid oat, and tho then growing saplings are now of noble size- The Park has been much visited and enjoyed by visit ors. It waa a place of dally and constant resort by those peerless Brooklyn gentlemen, Clarence D. Sackett and Grenville Alfred Sackett, Esquires, who Bpent here the laBt summer of their honorable and u&eftil lives. On the Presby fcerian burial ground lie the remains of (bo Rev. Zechariah Greene, who died in that village at the age of nearly 100, and Benjamin Fnnklin Thomp son. the author of a history of Long Island, which Is hia best memento. In the Episcopal groun d are buried Edward Griswold Esq., an eminent counsellor; Henry Eckford, a celel brated ship builder, and many other persons of distinc tion. HEMPSTEAD SPORTS AND RECREATIONS, : Space win not avail hereto give a full description of the amusements, equestrian and aquatic/and in some particulars original and peculiar, whicb pertain te that portion of Hempstead termed \Town South.\ Just at tbia season, beach and bay parties are in vogue. A few daya ago came off on the great South. Bay the annual boating frolio of the colored folks. In this, to show the strength of this parly, upwards of one hundred boats were engaged. These crowded the creeks and spread themselves over the . bays and conveyed their crowds of merry pleasure setters without any accident that we have heard of. Tbere was boat racing, and Binging, and plc-nicing with an exuberance of enjoyment which is characterise tic of the privileged colored does on Long Island\ where, from the earliest tlxna, they have been well deal} with and make money enough and to spare on the farms where they axe employed, and as domestics in the households.

Yours traly, S. TRIAL O F POLICEMEN. A b u s ive L a n g u age an d i t s R e s u lts—T w o C a ses u u d e r tb is H e a d —W h o w a s to B lam e for a B u r g lary ?—T a k in g Mo ney a n d G e ttin g a C lnb. O w ing p a r t l y to th e a d j o u r n m e n t o f lo s t week, and partly to other causes, there was an unusually huge n umber of trials at Police Headqu&rtersyeeterday, there being five complaints of citizens against members of tbe force of Brooklyn, and many more in Now York. The trials of complaints made by citizens commenced at two o'clock in the aftoruoon, before President Acton and Commissioner Manierre. The first case from Brooklyn was that of Patrolman Kenney, of tho Forty-second precinct, who was charged by Mrs. Ann Tracy, of 23 Greene lane, between Pros pect and York streets, with having entered her apart ments on tho forenoon of Tuesday, July 31st, aud abused, ill-treated, and threatened to arrest hor, with out authority or cause. Ho did n o t arrest hor, although as she swears, she desired him to do so, if ho deemed proper. Among the opprobrious epithets whioh ahe claims that ho applied to h e r is, that of \a nuisance.\ Tbis wos also testified lo by one Mary Ann O'Neil, Mary Mitchell, on behalf of the officer, stated that the trouble had commenced among the children; that Mrs. Tracy bod called h er mother a Scotch b —b, and othor names of an objoctionable character. On application being made at the station house, Officer Kenney had been Bent down to make peaco between tbe belligerents. Officer Kenney being called to give bis statement, said that whon he camo to thc house, Mrs. Tracy com menced abusing him, telling him to go down into tho yard and take away a doad dog which lay there, He cautioned her against using such language, when she became very abusive. Henry Bif-gins, a patrolman of the 43d Precinct, for merly connected with tho Brooklyn Cholera Hospital, was accused of entering that institution on tbe n ight of the 251h July, and going to the bodsideof officer Toomy, then lying in a state of collapse from cholera, to whom, it is alleged, he used vile and profane laDguago, saying that ho was not fit to livo, that he was a d —d scoundrel, etc. It is also charged that he went to Dr. Thayer, tho physician in charge of tbo hospital, told him that Toomy wob uot fit to livo, and desired that gentloman to give him something to kill bim. Dr. Thayer not being preseut at the moment, a short delay was allowed for his arrival; when ho camo, on bo- iug sworn, he testified t l a t ho recollected tho officer’s coming into the hospital, that ho carno^to him and asked h u n \ if ho had ever traveled that way,\ and \if he was a Mason,\ after which he pointed to Toomy, saying, \don't euro him, don't do anything to make him better; h e aint fit to live.\ This was all ho recol lected. He was very busy at tho timo or ho would havo turned him out of tho hospital, which, Mr. Acton said, ho thought would havo beon tho pro por course. On the p art of Higgins two affidavits wero handed in, one from Elizabeth Quillon.andone fromFrancIs Brice, both o f whom ore or were nurses in tho hospital The former testifies that sho never heard Higgins use any but gcntem&nly language or knew him to act otherwise than in a gentlemanly manner. The latter deposes that he was on duty on tho night of the 25th, whon he was asked by Higgins if Toomy was there. Ho answered that he was, b u t that ho was asleep. About two hours afterwards ho informed Higgins tba1, Toomy was awake, and that ho could see him. Higgins thon went to the bedside of Toomy and said \Toomy” in a very gentle voice repeating it two or three times; then adding, \Do you know me” when, receiving no answer went away. He testifies that Higgins used no language unbecoming & gentleman, and that a t no timo during his connection witb the hospital did ho conduct himself iu a manner unbecoming a gentloman. He further says that Toomy has called on him ond offered him inducements to swear against Higgins, urging that by so doing, h e could re* reive the pay that Higgins was entitled to as a police- mao. Ho says tbat h e makes bis affidavit freely, with out any inducement or compensation, b u t for the pur pose of protecting an efficient and worthy policeman from wrong. Patrolman Lccky, of the 44th Precinct, was accused of neglecting to try the doors on his beat, and with allow ing a burglary to bo committod a t tho corner of Fulton avenue and Elliott place, between 12 P. M. and 6 A. M., during bis tour of duty on the night of tho first July. Alfred Hunt, being sworn, testified that the money drawer h aa been taken out aud searched, aud that a » counlo of packages of segars had been romoved, b u t that tho owners of tho establishment were fn the habit of leaving a sash over the door open. His theory of tho case was that the proprietors of the place had forgotten to lock the door of tho shop, that thc policeman had neglected to try thc doors, and that in consequenco, the omission had not been discovered, so tbat tho burglars entered and helped themselves. Mr. Acton, however, pointed o u t to him the fact that a boy might easily b e passed through the sash abovo the door, and onco inside, it would be an easy mattor for him to open the door. Tlio Roundsman testified that he had fouud the officer at his post when visited. At half past one he was in the immediate neighborhood, and at half past five ho was within two blocks ot tho store in question. Mr. Hunt, on further examination, stated that he had seen this policeman shortly after the burglary was dis covered ( 4 >£ A. M), b u t being in a hurry to go ovor to New York, be had not spoken to him about it. Tho Sergeant informed Mr. Acton that since tho b u r glary wbb committed the thiofhad beon arrested and the segars recovered. Mr. Acton expressed his gratification at learning tho fact And gavo the complainant some good advice as to the proper method of securing a store, closing with the >&rting direction to prosecute the crimiual and socuro jim his deserts. Patrolman Jobn J. Reilly was charged by Aaron Myers with improper conduct. Mr. Myers being sworn, deposed that bo resides at 102 Myrtlo avonuo, in Brooklyn; that be is & clerk in a dry goods storo; tbat ho sold a woman two dollars' worth of dry goods, for whicb she gavo him a two dollar bill remarking that thero was no need of change, when sho wont out. Boon after sho returned and said that sho had given him a fivo dollar bill in mistake, which ho denied, whereupon she called in an officer—Officer Reilly in this case—who asked him if h e bad tho bill. On his reply in the negative, tbo officer told him to open the money-drawer and lot bim seo what waB in thero. He did so; when tho officer reached across tbo counter—a narrow one—and took out a fivo dollar bill which was lying there, at tbo same timo tolling him that ho guessed ho would have to take him to the Station. Ho said something to tho officer abont a warrant, and that ho would not go along. Bo Officer Beilly jum p ed over the counter and attempted to drag him out. He re sisted by clinging to the countor;when the officer used his club, striking bim on the arm, injuriog him eo much that ho was n ot able to work for two or throe days, and making a mark of which traces were, os 2 $ alleged, still visible. Mr. Hess, proprietor of the storo, was p resent ou tho occasion. He corroborated the testimony of his clerk as to the remark made by the woman about the change, and as to the manner in which (ho money was taken and the arrest effected. Officer Reilly stated that on account of the death of hia brother and the necessity of attending to his fune ral, be hod been unable to look up bis witness. He Accordingly asked for a postponement; which was granted, and the* case laid over till next Wednesday Afternoon. THE EARLY CLOSING MOVEMENT. H e eting of the Dry Goode Clerks’ E a rly Closing Association—A Committee trom the Yonng m e n ’s C h ristian Association —Some merchants Still Refractory— More Transparencies to be P u rchased. A r e g u lar weekly m e e ting of the D ry Goods Clerks’ Association was bold last evening at the rooms corner of Conrt and Joralemon streets, Ur. E. J. McQrot- ty in the chair. ' After the rontlne business, Messrs. E. D. Barker and ti. W. Manchester, from the Yonng Men’s Christian As sociation, were announced and warmly welcomed. Hr. Barker said he regarded thc early closing move ment as in tbo right direction. A held for improve ment, socially and morally, was opened for the dry goodB’ clerks, and with thia view tho spoaker wonld invite (he members of the Association to visit the rooms of the Christian Association at any time, and they wonld be welcome, no mattor whether they Joined or not. It was not Intended to aak for members, bnt simply te extend a brotherly hand to the members of the Early Closing Association. Mr. Manchester made, a few similar remarks, after Which a vote of thanks was unanimously given to the visiting gentlemen, who departed with the aasoranos that their invitation wonld be accepted. The regular business was then taken np. < Hr. Cnthhertson. from tne Fnlton avenno Committeo, reported that Mr. Pratt would not oloso, for ho conald- ered it would only be throwing hia traalaeu into the hands of othor merchants. Hr. Downing, thinking it waa intended to make the movement one of coercion, would not close hia store at the time dealgnated. Hr. Lawler might close, bnt his store was open st tbs present time. Means. Beatty and Groer wonld closo if other merchants wonld do likewise. The latter named firm had expressed themselves in favor ofthe move ment It waa the opinion of the oommittee that more transparencies would bo effective ln aiding the move ment. Mr. Stewart, bom the Myrtle avenne Committee, reported that the Anna of Messrs. Weahler and A.

K e lly . To the Editor ofthe Brookyn Eaige x A llow m e to aak t h e K ip V a n W in k le A lder man of thc lOlh Ward, through toe modium of your valuable paper, whether ho intends to awaken to tho the senses of his duty Ibis season, o r whothor he in tends to elumbor untU too sound of Gabriols trumpot with a summons to appear beforo a higher tribunal tban (his world contains, to answer the charges Instituted against him by tho spirits of those beings that he has sent to that bourne lrom which no traveler returns, by b is culpable negligence, for allowing thc garbage to remain upon toe sidewalks for the last two weeks, decomposing, and filling the atmoBphoro with contagion; I would liko to havo tho faithful Aldprmon of toe Tenth Ward (when ho arouses from his slumber) to take a ramble up Atlantic Btreet and observe the con dition o f that portion of his ward. In Atlantic stroet, from Bond to Powers, aro at least one hundred and fifty b&rrols, boxes and pails filled with all kinds of decaying vegetable matter; somo of them have been apset, and ibe contents deposited on the street, and tho steuch arising therefrom is Tory detrimental to th e health of tboBe residing in the vioinity. Well may tbe citizens of too Tenth bo aroused to feel ings of intense disgust for such a wooden man as now represont them. Go where you will, tho questions are: Have you scon o u r Aldormon lately? Where can he be? Has he gone to rusticate intho country and loft his ward to take care o f itself? Who is responsible for this negligence?—daily asked by hundreds. I would like to . have Alderman Slowcoaoh, of the 10th Ward, who rejoices in the cognomen of Kelly, io inform me who is responsible for this negli gence, Ia it Mmselt? Is it the Honorable Common Council ? Or is it the energetic moinbors o f the Metro politan Board of Health? Will he be ao kind as to in form tho citizens of tho Tenth, who tho guilty parties are, that are guilty of auch a culpable, inexcusable, out rageous negligence as haa been practiced for two weeks past. Such persons as they are, whoever thoy may be, are a disgrace to tho community, and should bo trans ported at once; they are not fit to dwell whore respect able citizenB ore. Respectfully yours, Pno. B ono P ublico . A n E x p lan a tio n . Jb the Editor o f ihe Brooklyn Eagle: Y o u w ill oblige m e b y c o n tr a d ictin g th e er roneous statement published in a recent issuo or your paper, in which you inform your readers that my mother, Mrs. Bishop, was ths successor of Jo&naa Southcott, \Prophetess ot Exeter” —and that I have styled myself \Shiloh and have assumed tho place of \Prophetess\ &c., in the Christian Israollte Church. In the first place, I would inform you that Mrs. Bishop never at any time in her whole life professed to be a \Prophetess or to have any supernatural revelations, neither did Mr. Bishop over claim to bo a \Prophet their knowledge and teachings were takeu from tho bible. Now, in regard to myself, and too titles which rou inform your readers I have assumed, allow mo sir i 0 iDform you, tbat tho paragraph in your paper is the first intimation wbich 1 havo had of suoh a change tak ing place. I have been a member of tho Christian Israelite Church for more than twenty five years. I have token an active p art in the sabbath school, havo render ed my service 1 to the sick and poor, (without reaped to creed) as far as my means would allow; this, I be lieve is all the leadership to which I cau lay claim, such privileges would bo granted to mo in any other church. [ am not a \public character,” neither have I any desire to be. The late Mr. and Mre. Bishop unitedly devoted their time, talent, and means in the cause of religion, both in this country and in Europe,and never aspired to be anything higher tbon servants in tho cause of their \divine master.\ Youra respectfully, R. K. M ilton. About our Y a c h t Clubs. U the Editor o f the Brooklyn Eagle. T b e com m e n ts w h icb ap p e a r e d in yo n r article in to-day's Eaole, on tbe subject of \yachting etc.,\ are most unjust to the clubs therein byporcriti- ciBcd. The Atlantic Club, although a new organization, already numbers among its fleet some of tho finest boats in tho country, and tho regatta, which is claimed in your articlo to bavo beon a \fizzle was a moat enjoy able affair throughout, as all thoso who participated can teBtify. to regard to tho Brooklyn Club, it is a known and undoubted foot that their last regatta was far ahead of any previous race, both in Interest and complete ness of toe arrangements, for the entertainment of in vited guests. You have not heard, forsooth, of either club since Its regatta. Why should you? Nearly every yacht of any note belonging to the clube, is away in the country, o r o ut on some ten-day crnls**, with its party of ten or a dozen, and consequently cannot very well be heard from. Here Iq Brooklyn, Com. Whiting has sold his b o a t Is that any sign that the club is becoming demoralized? Are not yachts every dav changing hands, and are not sellers continually building now ones? I do n ot think your article con stand. FaiUs au diable ct qui a t a lui . Very respectfully, Brooklyn, Aug. 18to, I860. ju s n m . C a rroll S treet B ridge. To the E d i t o r o f the B r o o k lv n E a g le : H a v e w e a n A ld e r m a n in tlie 10th W a rd now, there used to be one by toe name of Kelly, if be is alive and well, will he have the kindness to got across that bridge over the Gowanus canal on Carroll atreet if be con. Is be aware tbat this bridge has bees out of order for over $ months? Does he know that the Hon. Body called Board of Aldermen, havo made an appro priation of $760 to have it repaired? Why this unneces sary delay? Who should stir this affair np if not the man that has charge of toe interests of toe pooplo of tha 10th Ward. IOtb Wabd. A n o th e r S a n i t a r y C o m p lain t.

Along Lafayotto avenue there are eight or ten privyB, and toe smell from them is so great tost it is necessary for persons passing to oross to the other aide of the street. Two cases of cholera have occurred Within a block of it, and it would not cost tbe Board of j Health much to have them oleaned, and probably save some lives. Cims*. A m u s e m e n t s .
