The track was in fine condition, the recent rains having beaten it down, and it had also been well rolled, preparatory to the contest. The afternoon was one of the finest with which we have been blessed for some time, and. appeared to have been famished especially for the occa sion. THE ENTRIES. The entries for the. race were as follows: D. F. Ward names-g. m. Mattie; W. T. Borchl names b. m. Lucy Long; R. Flynn names b. p. Brick Pomeroy. The contest was for a purse of $250—fifty dollars to go to the- second horse. Mile'-heats, best three in five, to harness. THE FIRST HEAT. The race was announced to come off at two o’clock, but it was considerably past that hour before they were brought upon the track. Finally they made their appearance, looking splendidly. Lucy Long and Mattie appeared to be favorites, the general opinion being that Lucy would win the race by superior bottom. Mr. Geo. S. Owens, Mr. J. M. B. Lovell and Dr. J. D. Fish acted as judges, and Mr. Wm. Neyle Habersham, Capt Mc- Lelland and Col. Nickerson as time keepers. After being allowed a little time for exercise the hoTses, which were driven by those who entered them, were called up, and the choice of position announced—Brick Pomeroy in side, Mattie second and Lucy Long on the outside. They were then ordered to score for the first heat. After one or two attempts the horses had a good, even start, and away they went like the wind—Brick Pomeroy leading, with Mattie following close alter, and Lucy Long third. At the first turn Lucy broke badly; the pony put his “best foot foremost,” and made a gap of twenty or thir ty feet between himself and Mattie, while Lucy was about the same distance in the rear of the gray mare. She commenced closing this gap steadily, bnt when half way around the track she broke again, and lost all she had gained. The horses maintained the same positions around the track, and came down the home stretch in gallant style, the pouy leading, Mattie second, and Lucy last. — The first half-mile was made by the pony in 1.2QJ, by Mattie in 1.23, by Lucy in 1.25. At the first turn after pas sing the stand Lucy made another bad break; the pony increased the distance be tween himself and Mattie, which the mare had lessened somewhat. Lucy came down to her work a little, and the pony, who was far ahead, made a slight break, which threw him back a little, but he soon recovered. Near the third turn Lucy broke again, and fell so far behind as to stand chance of being distanced. On the third stretch they came up stragling, the pony ahead, Mattie fol lowing, and Lucy Long last. Lucy came near being distanced on this heat, which was won by Brick Pomeroy, in 2:441. THE SECOND HEAT. On the second heat the horses occupied the same positions as previously, and again made a good start. At the word the poney shot ahead, with Mattie following, and Lucy last in the raee. The contest became close and exciting on this heat Lucy gained steadily upon her competitors, and Mattie did her best to get ahead of the pony, who held his own gallantly. Lucy gained on Mattie, and pushed the gray mar@ prett3 r hard, but she kept her position. The horses passed the distance pole", and came down the home stretch beautifully, the pony ahead, with Mattie qnd Lucy close at his heels. The first half mile was made by Brick Pomeroy in 1.21?; and away they went upon the last half. The pony continued his lead, and increased the distance between himself and Mattie. The contest between the latter and Lucy Loug now became the most exciting part of the heat. Lucy came up abreast of the gray, and both of them gained upon the pony, who manifested some disposition to break, but kept down to his work. Lucy bjoke; when near the third turn, and lost a little, but scrag regained her old place. Down the home stretch the race was one of tho prettiest ever witnessed. The three homes were very close together, bat Brick came in winner of the second heat, in 2.47. Mattie and Lucy, were neck and neck, bnt the judges decided" the former to have been a little ahead, wfien tfie line was crossed. THE third HEAT The horses made two false starts, and the judges announced that tiiey must go the next time, no matter what thgir positions migjht be. When tirey came np the pcijy anfi Lucy were about even, but ’Siattie was some distance in the rear. The word was given, however, and the horses went off for the third trial. It was the general opinion that this heat would be won by Lucy, and she did make a strong effort to secure it. The race became a very close one. The pony had tl}0 lead, bnt Luc y gained upon him gradually, and the two were nearly abreast, when Lucy broke, near the third turn. Mattie brought up the rear, but gained, somewhat upon Lucy. In this order they came docyn the home stretch, the pony making the first half-nple ip 1.22 j. On the second half,' Lucy broke at the first turn, and the pony opened a wide gap between himself and the mars. About the quar ter stretch, the pony showed symptoms of breaking, but was kept clown to a steady trot, with Lucy gaining on him quite rapidly. The distance pole was passed, and the raee down the home stretch, was a very fine Ofie. The heat was taken by Brick Pomeroy iii 2.4ffj. Near the judges’ stand Alattie’ and Lucy both broke, and Lucy came in seefind. 7 ' The award of fhe race was then made to Brick Pomeroyi be Baying taken three straight heats. Time-2.44 j, 2.47, .2.4Cj. The judges first announced tlint Mattie was considered the second best horse,, she haying come j in second on two heats; but objection was made < on the ground that the last heat should de cide that question, and the judges, after con sulting authorities, revoked their previous decision, and annohnoed YiUcy Long ns win ner of the fifty dollars,’ she having come in second on the last’heat. The termination of the race in favor of Brick Pomeroy was a sur prise to everybody, _aifat-waarjtS«%ght tnaW Lucy out, \ . I other two and the race, time fbeviocsev hade.

When the privilege of suf- rage was conferred upon the colored people, and Radical emmissaries were sent out here to gain influence among them, McNeil took a decided stand in favor of having his peopl e support the whites, whom they had always known, and against their being led astray by carpet-baggers and scalawags. At the last two elections he did yeoman service, for the success of the Democratic ticket He trav eled about through the country, peaking to his people and organizing clubs, and was a faithful and zealous co-worker with the white people. His funeral yesterday morning was very largely attended. There were about one hun dred and fifty white gentlemen present, and a very large number of colored persons. Rev. Mr. Landrum conducted the religious servi ces at the house, and delivered a very appro priate and feeling address. The body, neatly attired in black, was placed in a handsome coffin, and conveyed to the colored cemetery, where it was laid in the grave. The white and colored citizens generally joined in the funeral procession, and the following mem bers of tho Young Men?’ Democratic Club act ed as pall bearers: Col. Wm. W. Nicholls, Geo. W. Wylly, Esq., Capt. George A. Mercer, J. C. McNulty, Henry R. Christian, Dr. Thomas Smith, WUliam Swoll, and Waring Russell. Beneath a rough exterior deceased carried a generous heart. He was well regarded among his own people for many acts of kind ness to them; and the white people have not forgotten, nor will they ever forget, that in the hour of their need, he was one of the few who came forward nobly, and battled for the rights and best interests of his native land. The expenses of the funeral were borne by the Democratic Club, whose mem bers deeply regretted the occasion, and felt that it was but a sorry return for McNeil’s hard work in times past. He did his dnty while he lived; may Ins reward be great. A •««.

The Board of Managers of the Savannah Port Society respectfully appeal to tfie public for pecuniary assistance Jto enable the So ciety to accomplish the objects of its organ ization. • - ‘i Never since the organization of this So ciety, 21st November, 1843, have the friends of the sailor been called upon to. exert them selves infhis behalf; as at the present. By the increasing commerce of Savannah a greater number of seamen than ever before will doubtless be in port during this season. The noble-hearted sailor is as capable of appreciating a work of love in his behalf as any other person; bnt often, for want of that sympathy and well directed effort to promote his welfare, many have been constrained to say—“No man cares for us except while we have money.” Gratitnde to the sailor, for the services he has rendefed in bringing to our homes, through toil and hardships from foreign and domestic ports, the necessaries, comforts and luxuries of life, as well as the wealth added to our State by commerce, to say nothing of the higher consideration of what is due from us as a Christian community to those less blest in point of spiritual privileges than our selves, should prompt the friends of seamen to make special and continuous efforts to pro mote their happiness and usefulness, by draw ing around them, as far as possible, the re fining and elevating influences of home, and by bringing them under the ministrations of the Gospel. Such efforts have beta made in former years. Nor have those efforts been in vain, al though the congregations at the Bethel have been necessarily changeable from the charac ter, as well as the occupation, education and sympathies of seamen, yet much good has been accomplished, and many have been brought to a knowledge of the troth, through the labors of the Society’s chaplains in form er years. Returned seamen have, on frequent occasions, stated that “the influence of troth and prayers listened to in the Bethel have followed ns while at sea, and whenever be yond the sea; and we fiave come back with thankfnl hearts, that our feet were turned to the testimonies °f the Lord when we were here months ago.” Through the benevolence of Josiah Pen- field, a neat and substantial Bethel was erect ed on Bay street, in this city, in the year 1831, and is now held by this Society as trus tee. By the providence of God, you are called upon to spare a portion of your means to maintain regular services in this building—- it stands as a monument to the memory of Pen- field. Will the friends of seamen help us to keep the door open and its pulpit supplied? ’Most of the early and active friends of .this laudable Christian enterprise have gone to their reward. It becomes us, to wbom they, have left it os a sacred trust, not to suffer it to languish and die upon onr hands, but to rouse ourselves to new and more earnest, efforts than ever to push forward the good work with vigor, so that our Bethel may in the future, as in the past, prove a blessing to many. A liberal appropriation which has lately been made by the American Seamens’ Friend Society, New York, should greatly encourage us to expect the cordial and hearty aid and co-operation of every friend of the sailor. Rev. Richard Webb, who has been ap pointed chaplain, commenced his labors on the 10th November ultimo. His whole time is being devoted to the religions inter ests of seamen visiting the port of Savannah, as will appear from his first month’s report published a few days since. Mr. Webb has been authorized to call upon the citizens for their contributions in behalf of the seamens' cause. We cordially com mend him to your liberality. (Signed) Very respectfully, J. T.

James Morton, a soldier of the Army of Occupation in Georgia, while exercising his privilege as a fighting man of the “ best gov ernment that the world ever saw,” to get drunk as a loot, was arrested by a policeman, for whose authority he had a supreme con tempt, which led him to resist the arrest. Per consequence, he secured for himself a damaged cranium, his scalp proving too ten der to withstand the blows which the police man administered with his elub. James was "requested to accommodate the Clerk with the permanent loan of a ten dollar bill. Jacob Pinckney, negro, was arrested by J. Manning, watchman at Cullen’s wood yard, for stealing fuel Manning failed to appear to testify in the case, and was fined five, dol lars for contempt of Court. The boy was dismissed for want of evidence. Solomon Williams, a darkey with the name but not the nature of a wise man, took a fancy to a pair of blankets belonging to a countryman at the Market. After taking the fancy he proceeded to, take the blankets, and was making off’ witfi them when arrested by a policeman. 'Solomon was furnished with lucrative employment, on the chain gang for thirty days. The Theatre.—There was a large audience at the Theatre last evening, to witness the Daughter of the Degiment, a charming little English opera, transformed into a drama, In praise of the performance we cannot: say much-—it ’.yr,3 not the performance that it might have been. The plays have been bet ter every nigTit this week. As an opera, the Daughter of the Seginient is good; as a play, very poor. Djve'sjt'ed of its mgsio, it is noth ing. Mr. Watkins made •'Guilotte,” who is in lovei consequently sentimental, a sett of comic character. Mrs. Watkins appeared as “Josephine,” and sang several songs very prettily; but the effect was not increased by kneeling to sing. The music would fiave have been far more nrefrrahle divested of all “staginess,” Jfr. Sfiftou did well as {fie bluff’ old “Sffrgeunt;” it was an excellent piece of acting. Mrs: Cole was not near as good as usual. Miss Bettie Gray, as the “Duchess de Grautcte,” ’Was fietter than usual. Mr.’ Harrison' and is$f.
