FOr g MILE Day, ‘The second day Of jhe meeting of the Union Association races, under the "aanagement of the Union Jockey Clab— the four mile ” .ycame off yesterday, and was witnessed by a very respectable assemblage, numbering about three thousarid, The day was very beautiful, although tho air omewhat cool in exposed eituations, 1t was other- ‘Wise very pleacant and agreeeble, A great many ladies were precent, who seemed to enjoy the racing very much. ‘Two races were run, the first being mile heats, best three in five, for a purse of $200, The Union Selling Stakes, for a purse of $600, for all ages, mile heats, did not come off, as the required number of entries had not beon made. ‘The day closet! with the four mile race, an event always highly appreciated by the American people, affording as it dues at once'a test of bath speed and bottom in the race- horse, ardas being a feature in racing peculiar to this country alone, American racchorses’{only being compo- tent to run that distance—the weak and weody nage of European countries not being equal to the task of runvisg four wile heats. The horses that started in the four mie race yesterday were Bar River, Bill Dearing, Slasher and Baglis. Tar River carried 121 Ibs., Bill Dearing 114, Slasher the same weight, and Eaglis 101 lbs,, it being a weight tor age race, The first beat, which was run in T5434, was no criterion of the powers of somo of the borses that ran in it, a8 is shown by the very good ramping of the sabsequent heat—7:421{. It was, however, & very pretty heat, and elicited sentiments of general ® efeetion on account of the way in which it was run, A bigh rate of ppeed was looked for in the next heat, end none were disappointed, as the time maderbows, though # few seconds more might bave been got out of Tar River bad he been more clesely pressed. Aud, take it all in all, the race was avery pleasant affair. The betting, a8 far as could be ascertained, was at about even on Tar River against the field. Bill Deariug was second in pubdlic estimation, Siasher next, while Huglis was only mentioned jn pool betting. There was no det_ tipg on time that we heard of. The track was in very 200d condition for a four mile race, and many expected to see better time than wns actually made in that race. In the mile beat race, however, the time was sharp—1:50! 1:513g, The race was won by Agitator, who carried 123 lbs., deating Glencona, carrying 101 Ibs., aud Dapboe with 111 Ibs, This wasa very pretty race to look at. An account of it, a8 well as the four mile race, follows:— FIRST Race. Porse $200, mile heats.

Clapp, the landiord of the Eve- rett House, ang lodged in the Eldridge street jail.

He engages the apartments and becomes responsible for the bills, Ifthe prima donna bas a large immediate suite and an army of camp followers (as they usually do), the bills are apt to be heavy. Picoolomini's for amonth was about eight | bunéred dojlars. One way and another, the Halians con- sume @ powerful amount of wine and provisions, and the Piccolomini suite were jolly people, who liked a good din ner and ® good deal of it, We should be sorry toshock the nerves of the astound- ing young gentlemen who are sighing ovor her departure, ‘but Piccolomini absolutely eat and drank like any ordina- ry person, Mr. Fish has, then, been held responsible by Mr. Clapp for these bills. They were not Mademoiselle’s. It was provided in her contract that she was to be free of all such vulgar matters. Gayly she sailed away on Satur. day io the Vanderbilt. Indignantly did Clapp, irate Bont- face, make affidavit, that to the best of his knowledge this Fish would not long remain on terra jJirma, this terra watered by the Hudson and sheltered by the star epan- | gled. Straightway did several truculent deputies Proceed to sieze and arrest and detain the body of the aforesaid Fish, and to deliver him ss aforesaid to the keeper of the prison @foreeaid, then and there to be confined until the issue of a suit tobe begun by the aforesaid Clapp for the eating, drinking and lodging of the within mentioned Pic, Whereas, he the aforesaid Fish wag and is 80 con- fined, and is & Fish‘out of water. It appears that Mr, Fish did not intend to go away, but that he must wait to settle some accounts with Mr. Ull- man, and that as regards Mr. Clapp’s money it was only & question of time. The arrest seens to have been alittle too harsh, mot to say an absolutely mean act on the part of Clapp. The Upera, by attracting the better class of hotel habitués up town, has put” thousands of dollars into Mr. Ciapp’s pocket; and if he did not get the» money for this Dill (and he will), he would still be ® gainer by the divini- ties of Irving place. The Opera has been of the greatest value to the hotel ke rs in its vicinity, aud about all they do for it ig to wend their men in on the free litt.

We have to announce the decease of Ramsay CROOKS, & widely and favorably known citizen of New York. He died at his residence last evening, in St. Mark’s place, at 78 years of age. Hie death will be lamented by a large circle of friends, not only in this city, but throughout the Northwestern section of the United States; and wo have no doubt but that even many old Indian brave and chiefs among the far distant tribes of the Weethrn widet- | pegs will hear, through the old traders 9-4 trappers, that Ramsay Crooks bas departed to the “hunting grounds” of the Great Spirit in another world with feelings of forrow, He was emphatically an honest and a good man, His whole life, united as it Was “¢ith iaborious and active pursuits, was under all Circumstances marked by kind- bees and humanity. Of this both white and red men who had the pleasure of his kind, sociable and agreeable acquaintance, wera made filly aware. His good nature and pleagant meyners, whatever the trials or provoca- tions, never fov him. He was, we believe, a native Of Scotland, and’ at the time of his death a prominent Member of St. Androw’s Benevolent Society. He came to this country, and it wes fortunate for tho late Mr. John Jacob Astor that be found a man in whose honesty, ‘Wwtegrity and perseverance he could place the most im- Plicit confidence, and in whose service Mr. Crooks spent the prime of his hfe, and by his skill and knowledge of the Northwest fur trade, extending from the American lakes acroes the Rock: He not only bsd the confidence of Mr: aigo the good will and esteem of the Choteaus end their argociates, who were actively engaged trade; and up to the time of his death he was engaged in a large com- uy‘esion fur business, at his large store in Exchange place, and which during the it Spring was packed with im- mense quantities of bul and otber skins contign- ed to bim from St. Louis and other localities at the West, He was also agent for the fine Catawba wine of the St. Louis Wine Company, who have a large capital invested in the growing of the grapes and in rts maauiacture, ‘Ag long as he he over old times with @ few old voyageurs, trappers aud traders with whom he chanced to meet, and to hear some oid Indian chief whom he knew in former times talk of former days; and everywhere his presence would be hailed with the most cordial welcome. He had a kind word for all. He Ae and with them in sorrow, and rejoiced with them in success, and manifested a feeling of cousolation and encouragement for every one. Few Indian chiefs from the Northwest ever came to New York who did not hunt him out. He could speak the Chippewa, and we believe several other Indian dialects. In conversation he was remarkably intelligent and commu- nicative, and delighted, in a social way, to relate hia ad- ventures in his rambles through the vast wilds he had twayersed. His remarkable travels aud sufleriags in some of hia trips between the lakes and the Pacific, across the mountains, are well described in Washington Ieving’s Ag voria. His life among savage Indians was frequeat!y in great jeopardy. Black Hawk, when visiting New York, and while dining with Mr. Crooks and a party of friends, declared that he was the beet friend the Indians had ever hed. He was said to be the first white man who passed over @ route and discovered a paes in the Rocky Moun- ins, whch Colonel Fremont was subsequently led to sap- Be that he had discovered. He was, however, too modest to claim his right to the discovery ina public manner through the press of the country, aud it was through his many friends that the {wot became weil established und known.

He was also, we believe, elected a momber of the Geographical and Staticticat ety, and aleoa member of the New York Historica! Society.

The correspondence of the London Post from Tarin, pub- liched in yesterday’s Hxrarn, announces the deatn of General de Benedek, of the Anstriamarmy, from the eff of a wound received ia the affair at Vercelli. The news, however, ig not given as authentic, aud requires cca firmation, ¥ General Lonis de Benedek was a native of Adenbourg Hungary, and was fifty-five years old. He was the eon of @ medical man, and was educated in the Academy 07 Nen atadt, a town of 5,000 inhabitants, the groater part of them bewg Hungarian miners, and took the position of cornet in the Austrian army in the year 1822, at the age of eigh teen years. His brilliant qualities obtained rapid promo tion for him, and in 1823 he was already colonel of a regi- ment. When, two years afterwards, the formidab'e civil war of the Gallician towns brok@out Benedek distinguish ed himself by his personal valor and by the talent with which he succeeded in rapidly quelling that bloody insurrection. The Court of Vienna rewarded him with the insignia of the Order of Leopold, on the Proposition of the Archduke Fernando, who waa & witners of hie bravery. Benedek was in Milan when the revolution of 1848 began; his conlaess was of great eervice tothe army; and having brilliantly distin gnished himeeif in the battle of Curatone, Radetzky culled attention to him in an order of the day to the army, aad be received the Cross of Maria The-ean. In Novara he Gestroyed the division of daboya with hi regiaent. Ben edek figured in the war of Hungary ag Major General, nn der the ordere of Prince Windiegraty. Ou the conclusion of that war be came to Italy, where he has been engaged in the battle in which, according to the report bofore alin. ded to, be received his death wound, THE LATE GENERAL DEURET, OF THE FRENCH ARMY* This general officer of the French army, who fell wh'le fighting side by side with Gon. Forey, bie companion ia arms, was a soldier of mucn eminence, aud for bravery, cool determination, and heroic courage, yielded to none of his military confréres. During the Crimean war be was greatly distinguished for the boldness of his attac! nd the pertinacity with which he followed up every chance of puccess. He was present at tno battle of the Alma, as Colonel of the Sth regiment, where he wag admired by the whole army for his deeds of daring and bravery. Attimes he would stand alone on horseback in the midst of his men, while the death storm raged furiously around then: gain he would lay flat on the ground awaiting the signal fo advance, For there deeds of valor he received marked distinction at the hands of the Emperor, and was ad- vanced to the position of Brigadier General on the 10th of January, 1865, and afierwarce to that of Major General, He afterwards commanded a brigade in the army of Paris, The attacking colnmns at the battle of Montebello wore organized under his command in this way:~Tho 17th battalion of chasseurs, supported by the &4th and 7ath, dieposed in échelopa, moved on towards the south ride of Montebello, wiere the enemy had entrenched himacif.
