Mott, on ForoiiN Plasters. No. 01 Bno.MiWAY, Room 50,) New YohK, May 7, 1883. The Porous Plaster Company: Gentlemen I have tho honor to submit the following roport, as a result of my investigation of the comparative merit of the Alicock's Porous Piaster and a planter which has recently boon advertised as suuerior to Alicock's. It is true that this advertised piaster contains inBieiiientB for oiRn to tho Alicock's Porous Piaster, as substitutes fur tlio essential constituents which experience has shown to be nocessary far a porfect plaster.

Whatever may bo tho merit of the ingredients uued in this advertised plaster, it is certain they are not. properly proportioned, as the action of this plastor on a delicate skin is too Hovore, frequently producing blisters and too activo irritation. I havo had occasion to use the Alicock's Porous Plaster and the adrertisod plaster referred to, and it is my opinion that tho Alicock's Porous Plaster is farsupertor in its action to tho latter, and from a chemical and physical standpoint is all that could be desired.

As Woodington, coachman for Mr. F. K. Sturgis, drove tho coach and four to the main entrance of tho Brunswick, at a few minutes aftor nine o'clock, Colonel William Jay stood speaking with tho elegantly dressed ladies, who had assembled to give eclat to the occasion. Colonel Jay woro a double broasted invisible green coaching coat, which reached to tho tops of his black gaitors.

There was a white rose in his buttonhole. Mr. Theodore Havemeyer was dressed in a similar stylo. Sir. Hugo Fritsch woro a morning walking suit.

In his cambric cravat he displayed a jewelled pin, on which was tho representation of a coaching club in the act of starting. It was mado from an original design and is tho only thing of tho kind in existence. Mr. J. V.

Parker, Mr. Frederick Bronson, Mr. J. R. Roosevelt, Mr.

F. Augustus Schermerhorn, Mr. G. P. Wetmore, Mr.

G. B. Fearing, Mr. F. K.

Sturgis and Mr. William K. Yandcrtillt, all handsomely and appropriately attired, completed the party. THE START. Mr.

Sturgis took tho reins in his hands at precisely half past nine, and Arthur Towns, tho outsido guard, vaulted nimbly into his placo. Tho coach was tho Pioneer. The well groomed, spirited horses wero resplendent in their gold mounted harness. Tho coach rattled up Fifth avenno at a brisk paco as far as Eighty fourth street, through Kighty fourth streot to tho southern boulevard, and thence to Ninety second street to tho Astoria Ferry. Tho Pioneer was on tho Long Island side of tho East Rivor, close to Hell Gate, at 10:25.

Tho party remounted and wero off WITH A MERRY DASH. Colonel Jay was ruling the stccdB from tho coachman's placo on the box.

The coach passed through Hempstead, going by the residences and thoroughbred stables of Mr. Edward Morgan, grandson of the lato ex Governor Morgan, and Mr. August Belmont, and tho stables and kennels of the Meadow Brook Hunt. Along the south turnpike, a fino old road, tho coach sped toward Smithville South, whicli was reached at 3.25. A chango of horses, the second since the start, was mado here, and then Mr.

Tho merry sounding of the guard's horn aroused curiosity in advance of the coach, which was gratified as tho gay equipage passed in view of tho populace. Beautiful gardens and spacious lawns environed tho highways wherever a domicile had been set, and tho country boro every sign of thrift and the people of prosperity and happiueso. Tho abodo of Bloodgood Cutter attracted special attention. Ho is a character in Mark Twain's "Innocents Abroad," and is familiar to neadors of tho Eagle as tho Farmer Poet of the American Institute. Garden City va3 euchanting.

Vegetation is far advanced here. St. Paul's School and the great Cathedral of the Incarnation are having the finishing touches put upon them. Everywhere along tho routo the peoplo greeted the coach with smiles and the shaking of handkerchiefs. The gentlemen receivod an ovation in Babylon and all along the remainder of tho routo to Islip.

Tho residences along this highway represent millions of dollars, and aro owned by prominent and wealthy gentlemen. Mr. Vanderbilt's country peat, named Idlo Hour, is believed to be tho finest on Long Island. It comprises over two thousand acres of laud and cost him $230,000. Bofore it completely satisfies him he will havo expended half a million dollars on it.

The salt waters of tho Great South Bay ebb and flow along one sido of tho property, and hero Mr. Vanderbilt has costly bathing houses and keeps a steam yacht at anchor. A great park, with winding carriageways and Summer houses, stretches off to tho cast and north, ending whero the grounds of tho famous South Sido Sportsmen's Club begin, Tho greatest trout preserves in tho country are here, and tho gentlemen will have an opportunity to cast the fly before their return. They will be the guests of Mr. Vanderbilt until Monday morning, when the return trip will be made.

Advices from tho Indian Territory state that two bills havo been introduced in the Creek Indian Council, providing for tho lease of the land known as the Cherokee Strip to the highest bidder for fivo years, at not less than $100,000 per year rental. Persons posted regarding afiairs in the Territory say there is a monbtrons job in this laud business, aud that greedy speculators stand ready to leaso tho atrip, whicli contains about a million acres, at almost any price, if they can get tha privilego of renewal. With this privilege, they think thoy can secure practically a perpetual leaw, or perhaps in a few years, an actual derd to it. Tho strip is (aid to bo worth now fully and in a fow years will bo worth two or thrco times that amount.

The letters were accompanied by a cutting from a Now York newspaper, giving details of tho stealing of certain Treasury plates from Washington, implying that tho writers wero in possession of those plates.

Tho paper from which tho clipping was taken Is evidently in collusion with the swindlers, and as orideaUy a low clu concern, Defeating the Trenton Team on the New Base Ball Grounds. Tho Ceremonies Attending the Opening of Wash ington Park on Fifth Avenue Fine Music, Good riay and an Immense Gat hering of SpectatorsThe Scores in Detail. Yesterday was a gala day in the history of baso ball in this city. Washington Park, on Fifth avo cnuo, was thrown open for baso ball purposes under tho auspices of the Brooklyn Base Ball Association. Tho ground had been arranged with great care, and in tho opinion of good judges was recognized as ono of tho finest diamonds in the State.

Tho grandstand, capable of accommodating several thousand spectators was placed in good position and afforded a fine view of tho Held. Tho grounds have been laid out regardless of expense by tho gentlemen composing tho association and are not only well adapted for tho national game, but also for ericket, lacrosse, latvn tennis and other outdoor games. Tho president, Mr. CharleB Byrne, is well known in this city, and he has shown an energy and most liberal spirit of enterprise in the matterwhich give promise of a full attainment of the ends desired by tho association, which embody tho providing of a'model professional baso ball organization and of a ground where athletic amateur clubs can find ample facilities for tho playing of their soveral favorite games. At present the ground is open only for baBe ball purposes, but ultimately there will bo a cricket and lacrosse field laid out at tho lower end of the grounds, for which thero is ample space, and tho wholo field will bo encircled by a pedestrians' courso.

Tho amount of work that has been dono since tho first shovelful of earth was removed to prepare the grounds is surprising, considering the weather obstacles the association has encountered. Excellent facilities are offered tho press for reporting tho games, a consideration not always shown by the mauagers of other baso ball and athletic grounds. A notable gathering assembled to witness the opon ing gamo. The gate receipts showed that over 0,000 persons wero present. Tlio grand stand, which seats 2,500 persons, was completely occupied, and the frco stand, opposite, accommodated nearly 2,000 nioro.

Camp stools and chairs on the grounds wero used in every available spot, while many spectators wero sta nd ing near tho boundary fenoo which surrounded tlio field. At three o'clock tho Twenty third Regiment band plaj ed popular airs in front of tho grand stand, and continued until four o'clock, when tho gamo commenced. When the visiting team from Trenton entered the field thoy were received with great applause They wero attired in gray suits, with red stockings, and presented a fine appearance. Aftor practicing for a short timo they withdrew and gavo placo to the Brooklyn nine, who wore received with quite an ovation as they took their placos on the diumond and passed tho ball around, the nino exhibiting skillful fielding and showing that thoy wero in good practice. THE GAMES began promptly at 4 r.

at wliich timo the Trentons, having lost tho toss, went to tlio bat. Tho Brooklyn team entered tho field in uniform for tho first time, and, under the circumstances, were a little nervous at ap pearing beforo the. local crowd, and tho result was some errors in their fielding, which enabled tlio visiting batsmen to open tho game with a scoro of three runs. But this was offset by two runs for ttie home team, aud now It was that they got down to their work in tho field in good style, and tho result was that in only ono inning afterwards wore, the Trentons able to add another run to their score, and that waB in their fifth, when they scored three unearned runs. In tho meantime tho homo team hail rallied at tho bat well, and when tlio fifth inning ended they had run their score, up to dou blo figures, and, resting content with their lead, only endeavored to prevent their adversaries from recovering their lost ground, which thoy did by somo excellent play in the field and the good work dono by the team's battery their pitcher and catcher tho lattcr's play behind the bat being THE FEATURE OF THE MATCH.

The contest onded when tho Trentons finished their ninth Inning, at which time the score stood at thirteen to six in favor of Brooklyn. The visiting team behaved throughout like gentlemen, not a word being heard in disputing the decisions of the umpire during the entire game, and the same credit is due the homo team. Indeed the Trentons presented a most favorable contrast to tho rough behavior of the Harrisburg team last Thursday at Prospect Park. The gamo was impartially umpired, and it proved quito an attractive contest to the largo majority of people present, hundreds being within tho grounds who had not been to a match for years, among whom wo noticed Mr. James B.

Bache, of the old Excelsiors, and Mr. K. Boerum, of tho old Atlantics. On Monday tho Brooklyn nino will havo a hard task to perform, as thoy will moot the Metropolitan team for tile first time on tlio now grounds, when tho Brooklyns will present their change hattory, Doyle and Morgan. The scoro of yesterday's gamo is appended.
