EEE The Turf in England and America. ‘The racing season in Great Britain has been brought to aclose. ‘The last event was the contest for the Liverpool Autumn Cup, for which the American mare Prioress, and the colt Babylon, belonging to Mr. Tenbroeck, were en- tered. This race was to have been run on the 10th inat.; we may therefore expect to learn the result by the next stoamer, which left Liverpool on the 14th inst., and may arrive at any moment. Should Mr. Tenbroeck succeed in winning the cup it will in part atone for the disgraceful de- feat of the American horses in the Cambridgeshire—a cir- cumatance totally unlooked for in this country after the brilliant achievement of the Cesarewitsch by Prioress. The result of the race for the Liverpool Autumn Cup is therefore looked for with much interest as being the crowning rac® of the season, and, we might say, decisive, as to the merits of Prioress and Babylon as racers on English soil, ‘and according to the English rules of rating, where a race consist of a single dash, without repetition, unless in case of a dead heat, as in the Cesarewitsch, which had to be ran over. The American stable appears, 80 far as we have been ‘able to form an opinion from the conflicting accounts pnb- lished in sporting journals from time to time, to have been peculiarly unfortunate, both as regards succems in racing and in the loss of Lecomte and Pryor by death. The soundness of Lecomte as @ race nag had been questioned before his doparture for Europe—many gentle men on this side Welieving it to be impossible for him to have undergone so great a degree of hardship as he bad experienced in his Southern campaigns, without receiving yertous internal injury—and which, although not percepti- vie to the eye, might nevertheless prove of so formidable . character as to proclude the possibility of his again be. oming & winner, especially In & foreign clime and after a ong nea voyage. The death of Lecomte seems to have astified the opinion entertained here of his condition by porting men, as it would seem ‘that he never really saw weil day after his arrival in Great Britain, although he ras entered for and actually ran in @ race in that coun- *y. He was easily beaten, being totally ‘unfit to contend ith the most inferior nags. He was nover able to re-ap- ear on the turf, but, weak and exhausted, the gallant Le- mmte, the once great rival to the renowned Lexington, yon succumbed to his infirmities. Pryor, from whom so much was expected, shared tho ite of Lecomte. From the date of bis arrival in Great ritain he probably never was himself, and certainly sver was once in condiion to run, although he made seve- J anauccessful attempts todoso. It is stated that he id been afflicted with lung fever previous to the Good- vod race, abd that his owner hesitated about starting m for that event almost up to the very day of the race, is rage then showed his want of condition, subsequent yonts confirmed it, and his death, which soon followed yat of Lecomte, affords another instance of the utter ab- ardity of attempting to ran horses laboring under affec- ‘ons of the lungs into condition. The ignorance of grooms, nd the fick of knowledge of the simplest physiological rinciples on the part of trainers, have been the ~olific causes of disease in many stables, and the wmote, if not the immediate, cause of the lors of any valuable me nage. Had Lecomte and Pryor tinued in health while in England, the proba. lity is, from their known speed and endurance, fat their campaign in that country would have been ono Othe most glorious on record, As it is, however, wo Mat be content with things as they are, and when wo a send horses abroad be sure that our selections are Pverly made, and our bart horses sent. Mr. Ten- Dnck’s nags were not selections from the best stables of thicountry—they were the best in his stable, and should bey regarded, bat not the best horses in this country, as may have been led to xappose. Mr. Tenbroook’s tour to Fume was merely a private speculation, in which ho Tepsonted no person in this country; amd bis horses, Altiugh good ones, represented no stable but that of the! owner. ‘The idea so strongly put forth that Mr. ‘Tenroeck's visit was a national affair is simply absurd Anctequires no further comment Onsiderable dissatisfaction was at one time man'fested ‘Dn this country relative to the English system of handi- @pping; but latterly some Journals here appear to advo- ‘ate it, on the ground that as inferior and superior horses an be reduced to a common level by 4 judicious handi- Apper, the uncertainty and interest of a race will be juch increased, and induce a larger attendance. Handicapping is common enough in thie country, We @ery nowand then hear of @ handicap race at the South, fd a very interesting one is announced to come off short- 1; in Virginia. Whatever may be said in favor of the ays fom it ia morally certain that handicapping opens wide the ‘por to the grossest deception and swindling on the turf, NEW YORK HERALD, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1857. and whatever other merit the practice may have, should not be tolerated on account of its liability to abuse. From the published engagements of Mr. Teabroeck, ex- tending into 1860, it would soem that that gentleman has no intention of immediately returning to this country, but will remain some time longer in Europe. Now that the ball has been opened by the visit of the American nags to Europe, it is intimated that the compliment will be return- ed by sending over several of tho crack English racers to try their fortunes on American soil. That they would be heartily welcomed we can speak in the affirmative, but of their success we are not quite so positive, particularly so Jong as they have such gullant steeds as Nicholas, Charles- ton, Minnehaha, Bounie Lassie and Sue Washington to con- tend against, ‘The racing in Great Britain during the season just closed has by no means settled the question of superiority be- (ween English and American kerses. That question is a diMcult one to decide, and can only be settled by return ‘Visita on both sides. English horsea may eventually prove themselves swifter than American on English turf, at short distances, but wo apprehend that on American soil, eape- cially after they have undergone the fatigues of a sea voyage, they will be found deficient, and when weighed in the balance be found wanting. If the time test adopted in this country, and now coming into favor in Europe, can be rolied on as a measure of the powers of a racehorse, thea American horses aro decidedly quicker than those of Great Britain even at short dis} —to say nothing of their acknowledged lasting qualities or bottom. Tho beat mile time recorded in England, as stated by the editor of Bel’s Life in London, is 1m. 488., which is five seconds and a half slower than the time made by Henry Perrit, (1:4234,) three seconds slower than that of Prioross, (1:45,) and two seconds slower than the time made by Charleston in a fourth heat, (1:46.) It is true, however, that statements are afloat ascribing a much higher rate of speed to the English horse than given by Mr. Langley; but all such reports should be received with certain degree of allowance, it being well understood in this country that parties unaccustomed to can seldom arrive at @ correct conclusion with a atop watch, and generally aro two or three seconds out of the way. Another diMculty in the way of correct timing on the English turf arises from the irregular lengths of the ground to be run over, and in some cases the non-return of the nags to the starting point. Apart from the above authority, we find it reported, however, that the filly Gin, at Newmarket, a two year old, the present season, carrying one hundred and nine- teen pounds, ran three-quarters of a mile in 1:17, which is at the rate of 1:42% a mile: and at the Liverpool Spring Meeting, Fisherman, a four year old, supposed to be the best horse of his age in England at the present day, ran a mile and a quarter in 2:11, which would be at the rate of 1:44 4-6, At the same meeting Sir Humphrey, a three year old, carrying seventy-six pounds, made a mile and a quarter in 2:10—at the rate of 1:44 per mile. At the Derby races, Tiff, a four year old, carrying eighty-one pounds, ran two miles in 3:30, which is 1:45 per mile, and beat Fisherman, who carried one hundred and thirty-two pounds. If these reports should prove to be facts, then the English and American horses are on a par as regards swiftness at mile distances, when tried by the time tost. There is no good reason why there should be much, if any, difference in the rate of speed between English and American horses. Having a common origin, the same ancestry, whatever difference there may be can only arise from superior care in breeding and training, and what other Influence may properly be ascribed to climate and difference of food. That the American horse Yer ina high degree the inestimable quality of endurance, no one will have the hardihood to deny; and, as r ‘ds his speed, let the bril- liaut performances’ of Eclipse, Boston, Fashion, Lecomte and Lexington answer. The season for ao | in the South is about to begin with the prospect of rilliant campaign. All the [od horses of that section of country are centering at New Orleans and vicinity, where the racing continues all win- ter. AS many new horses will appear on the turf, and older ones be incited to renewed efforts, we may safely predict some of the best running that has ever taken place in this country; and when these engagements aro through with, an opportunity will be afforded to make such se- lections as are suitable to contend on the English turf; as it is understood that a number of our Southern breeders, dissatisfied with the result of Mr. Ten Broeck’s stables, are determined to make anothor effort for supremacy. bd the by, a challenge of $100,000 is now open for li horses on our soil, the offer being to run four mile heats. Should this be accepted, we shall have an exciting time in this country, and it would*be looked upon as a great event throughout the land. If judictons selections of horses on this side are made during the coming winter, there is strong probability that the Goodwood Cup may find a place on the sideboard of some American gentleman next summer. The season for trotting is now nearly over in this vici- nity, and. with some few exceptions, we shall have but little further to record. «The season’ has generally been an int and successful one, and the average time made shows a gradual improvement in the number of fast trotting horses. This is due, ina measuro, to the great demand and high prices paid for this description of horse, which make it the interest of the breeder to comply with ‘the necessities of the times, and breed such animals as will be found most profitable. They appear to pay leas attention to breeding road and trotting horses in Great Bri- tain than in this country, and to this cause may be assigned their inferiority in that respect. Tho matorials for & good breed of trotters exist as well in England as in this country; all that is necessary being their developement. A little instruction in the art of drivixg a trotter might not be amiss, for John Bull is known to be notoriously deficient im that speciality. However, unloss greater interest is felt by the English sportmen in the trotter, the a is that in future, as at present, the American will remain decidedly superior to bis trans-Atlantic brethren. There is no reason why the horse used for hu pur- poses should not become a trotter under a aystem of judi- cious training and ment. Tike tle best tion of American trotters, the Englis} hunter is quite a well bred horse, and in’ many thoroughbred. ‘With such splendid materials for com it is some- what surprising that John Bull should se long have re- frained from trying his fortune on the ti tarf, and Sze realizatisn of the assertion that Yankees we the finest road and trotting horses in the world, ANOTHER OvTRAGR UPON Amxancay Commence.—The ship Thomas Watson left this port on the ad of De- eember, 1866, with a cargo of general merchandise, for the const of Africa, for the purpose of barter or exchange for palm oil, ivory, gold duat, opium and produce general- ly. The Thomas Watson arrived on the const of Africa in the month of January, 1867, and touched? at most of the trading ports. While at Anamaboe a biack man named Samuel Johnson shipped as steward. Soon after the ship proceeded down the coast, and on the 14th of September was lying at anchor off Quitta, and had on board 70,000 gallons of palm oil, 700 pounds of ivory and a quantity of gum, hides and gold dust. At that time this Samuel John- son quitted the ship, without permission, and went on board the British steamship Bloodhound, Lieut. Charles R. Robson commanding. On the same evening, at about 7 o’clock, that vessel dropped anchor under the stern of the ship Thomas Watson, which was boarded by Lieut. Robson ‘and an armed body of men, who stated that the black man, Samuel Johnson, had made a deposition alleging that be bad beem sold as a slave. The captain of the Thomas Watson replied that he knew nothing about it,and therefore had nothing to say. Lieut. Robson interrogated all the officers and crew of the Thomas Watson, all of whom replied that nothing of the kind had occurred or was intended. At last Lieut. Robson stated that this Diack man (Samuel Johnson) wanted to leave the ship, and that he must be paid his wages at once. The consignee of the ship being ashore, the captain replied that he could net comply with the demand, as he considered the man John. gon a deserter. On the following day, September 15, the ship Thomas Watson was seized, with her cargo, all tho ship's papers taken and an armed force of marines and sailors, called a prize crew, placed on board. On the same day the ship was got under way, and or- dered by the commander of the British government steamship Bloodhound to Sierra Leone. At the time of seigmre the ship Thomas Watson was about leaving for the port of New York, having her full cargo on board. The ship arrived at Sierra Leone on the 7th of October, after a voyage of twenty-two days. The damage to the owners of this ship bas already been thousands upon thousands of dollars, and may yet be much greater. The object of British cruisers on the coast of Africa appears to be more to break up and destroy our trade with that part of the world, than from any extra zeal in suppressing the slave trade. Here is a case of a British man-of-war becoming a power for the collection of a paltry debt, when within gun shot of the ship seized were consuls and courts, whose special business it is to arrange and adjust all such diff culties. It is seldom that wo have to record such an ag gravated assumption of authority, amd it is full time our government adopted proper measures, not only to prevent further aggressions, but to obtain the most ample redress and satisfaction for the offences already committed. If ont vessels are to suffer such gross indignities, and their owners such serious damages, it should be generally un- derstood. Hardly an American vessel trading on the const of Africa but that is fired into or insulted in some way, atid commanders of British cruisers appear to take a malicious pleasure in delaying and searching our ships, and arresting and arraigning their officers upon the most paltry excuses. For years this has been practised with impunity, and our trade has saffered seriously from it, Tt has already continued too long, and we hope the govern. ‘ment will mako it a business to reform these great abuses.
