THE SCENE, THE CROWD AND THE TURNOUTS The second day of the summer meeting of the American Jockey Club was not inferior either in point of interesting races or the numbers in attend- ance to its predecessor of Tuesday last. The pro- gramme, which was arranged for the three days, has been faithfully adhered to and no finer races have been witnessed on the American turf. The display of horseflesh has been equally attractive and the lover of the nobiest of the lower order of animals has had ample opportunity for gratifying his admi- ration of excellent stock, The reputation which these gatherings at the Fordham*track has achieved EN ROUTE. The racing world is not an early riser as a general thing, but many an eye, whose owner was concerned for the events of the day in Westchester yesterday, was cast skyward in scrutiny ‘of the weather, which in the beginning of the morning was rather un- promising. Anxiety on this point was greatly re- lieved as the day grew older, and although a few dark clouds were visible and kept away not a few who feared that most dismal of disappointments— & wet race track—noon found dozens of teams and turnouts either harnessing or under way for Ford- ham. No evil is there that has not some mitigating feature, and so if the sun did not shine out all the time, and thereby produce some little uneasiness, it had the effect of making the roads cool and pleasant and the drive to the park @ source of real delight, And herein, en passant, liea one of the many advantages enjoyed by the Jerome course, Its situation affords the visttor the opportunity—nay, toacertain extent makes it a necessity—to drive by @ most agreeable route through choicest scenery, over unexceptionable roads, When the end is plea- sure and the means is pleasure, there is a rare com- bination for the epicure in such matters. An amble of two hours from the heart of the city, a trot of an hour and a half, or a run of an hour if you are for- tunate enough to be the owner of fast animals, will “do” the distance to Fordham, inclusive of the requisite halt to “see a man’’ and light a cigar after you have done so, Teams there are that boast of coming from Murray Hill in the three-quarters, but in the heated term it is doubtful if such a feat is merciful to the good beasts, while it may lead ‘to an indictment by those terrible fellows—the Am. 8.

In the earlier portion of the afternoon, and, in fact, durin; the first half hour of the races, the attendance of spectators was not over numerous, but they arrived all at once, and soon after grand stand and quarter — hiliside and slope became suddenly popu- ous. THE SCENE. To anovice in turf matters @ race and a race course are objects of immediate and deep interest. Tt is impossible to see the one and in: the other with feelti of ordinary curiosity, The contest be- tween a field of horses as they rush at arrow-like speed around the course and strain each nerve with human-like pny ard as they near the winning post is a sight to stir soul of the most phlezmatic. The excitement of a race course has its perturba- tions, its rise and fall, like the grand race course of life, only all its emotions are crowded within at most a few hours. It rises to fever heat with each contest between the horses and goes down in. A draughts- man would chart it for you with lines of elevation and depression, Hke.a section of a chain of hills, the apices of which indicate the thrilling moments when the horses are about to dash under the cord. The four good races of yesterday and the scene that at- tended thera gave the new comer a rare conception ot lifeonthe turf. The threatening weather gave pli to as fair @ day as could be desired, and the whole space within the fences of the course was a scene of the uimost animation. People circulated about with constant restlessness, made bets, ’ dived into the restaurants, where a dozen different stands jield forth all the temptations of cool drinks, sandwiches and ices, which were dis- pensed after a manner that showed the handiwork of the club stewards in making arrangements en- tirely in consonance with the harmony of the day and the entertainment of visitors. THE CLUB HOUSE, surmounted with its fretted Mansard and aristo- cratic in ite dun colored paint, loomed up over the nik, commanding the whole course. A gay party lined ita balconies, watching the races below or lis- tening to the strains of the band. Those inclined to luncheon frequented the alis within, where chatter- ing waiters discussed the races in French and ban- tered each other to underhand bets, From the bal- conies, or from the rustic circular stairway that climbs the slope, a magnificent coup dil of the scene was afforded. To the left was the central group of turfmen, jockeys, stewards and specta- tors ated around the judges’ stand, the whole mingling, and intertwining and Ue | places like the colored pieces in a Kaleidoscope. In front was the grand stand, with ite double story of seats ith a ea of faces directed to the objects in and; to the left stretched the slopes of the Westchester hills and the road conducting to the city. Underneath, and so close that you seemed able to cast a stone to any part of it, lay the involute curve of the track, its smooth surface level as @ ball- room floor, THE EQUIPAGES, Let us go back to the stables where the turnouts of this gay gathering have been committed to the care of the hostiers, while their owners disport them- selves where they list about the course. The steeds that have borne st goodly company are in the hands of the hostiers, who curry them with great care and whistle in their peculiar way as they do their work; it is not a whistie exactly, but a sort of hiss.

THR crown yesterday was a vast improvement on the first day, but yet it did not do justice to the occasion. The meeting was thought by many to be too close upon the spring gathering, but the club in arranging it had reference to the expected attendance of the delegates to the Fourth of July Convention. Whether the politicians had not arrived tn town or whether they were too absorbed concerning the candidates to be trotted out next Saturday, they were invisible the first day. Yesterday, however, they put in @ better appearance, although the attractions al the Sehuetzenfest had doubtlest drawn many to Jones’ Wood, Comptroller R, B. Connolly, Commhis- the closing races of the summer meeting come off. From the fact that the programme embraces a hur- die race—that ei heen of the amusements of the turf—an unus' jarge gathering is looked for. The Racing. The track at Jerome Park yesterday was in excel- lent condition for racing, the shower of the early morning not having detrimentally affected it. The racing generally was very satisfactory, unless it be the gelling stakes between Redwing and Jubal, which resulted rather differently to what was expected, as Jubal, instead of going on with the race after getting the word and leading to the bend of the bluff, took the road which led to his stable, thereby losing all chances of winning the race, as vefore he could be turned Redwing was two hundred yards away from him. The first race was between four two year olds, all that appeared out of thirteen entries for the two year old stakes—Mr. Cameron's imported brown filly Inyerugiass, Mr. Belmont’s chestnut colt Fenian, ‘Mr. Sanford’s chestnut filly The Nwn, and Messrs. Pardy & Wither’s bay filly Oulda. The race was won quite easily by Mr. Cameron’s filly, she taking the lead at the start and holding it to the end, the dis- tance being flye-eighths of a mile, From the pe- culiar conformation of the course this distance makes a very pretty race for two year olds, as the horses’have to be started and the race finished im- mediately in front of the club stand on one side and the grand stand on the other. Ail the horses that started in this race are very promising, and in meral Sppenrange, fully and finely developed, The Nun—a full sister of Norfolk—particularly so. The second race was two mile heats, in which two horses by the name of Connolly were entered with old Ficetwing, the latter having “a leg’ with which he cannot win @ race in anything like respectable company. We do not see the propriety of entering two horses of nearly similar names the same race, as was the case yesterday with the two Connollies, as many of the spectators are unable to discriminate between the two, The origi- nal name of one of them was Clement—a very good name as it stood. It will be very proper to run him again under the same cognomen, as it would tend to prevent confusion in the future, as they are both young and mising horses and may juentl: meet each other on the race course. The race, whic! ‘was a capital one, lay solely between these two horses, as old Fleetwing was distanced in the first heat. The successful Connolly, James A., was got by vandal . poe his opponent, Richard B., was got ry . ‘The tl race was styled the Welter Cup, for horses used as hacks, to be ridden by members of the club, a dash of one mile. Five horses started for this race, which was a highly creditable affair, the mile being run with welter weights in 1:563, which was remarkably fast, considering the quality ef the horses and the non-professional character of the riders, The horses that ran were Mr. Cameron’s bay gelding Bi ue, the winner; Mr. Armstrong's brown Py Freelance, Mr. Appleton’s chestnut geting orp oe Mr. Livingston’s chestnut gelding Rocks, ir. Van Courtland’s brown mare Rebel. e last race of the day was the selling stakes, to which we have alluded above, between Redwing and Jubal, both to be sold for $500, consequently both ing the same weight, with the exception of the usual allowance for sex, which is three pounds, in favor of the mare or gelding. After the race was over the winner, Redwing, was sold for $570. We append the details of the lay’s sports:— THE FIRST RACE. Two year old stakes, of $60 each, h, f., with $600 added by the club.

General Butler Beaten by a Long Isiand Mare=A Good Day’s Sport at the Waverley Fair Grounds. The first regular trotting match under the aus- pices of the New Jersey State Agricultural Society, on their fair grounds at Waverley, a place equi-dis- tant from Elizabeth and Newark, on the line of the New Jersey Railroad, took place yesterday afternoon in presence of a large attendance of the sporting fraternity and @ goodly sprinkling of ladies, The first trot was for a premium of $300, mile heats, best three in five; entries confined to horses owned In the State. For this trial there were entered:—Hamble- tonion mare, Mr. Omburson, of Newark; Lady Benchley, Mr. Dunham, of Newark; Panic, Mr. Stephen Fields, of same place; Careless, Mr. Buomer Collins, of Morristown, and Shawhegan, owned by a gentleman from Rahway. Prior to the start the lat- ter animal was withdrawn, however. After several ineffectual efforts to obtain @ good start the first three horses were let go in anything but good style, the horse Panic soon getting ahead—a position which he maintained threughout three consecutive heats, and thereby winning the premium. His best time ‘was in the second h when he made the mile in 2:28, and the halfin1:17. The next effort was be- tween General Butler and another Long Island trotter named Goldsmith Maid. A premium of $1,000 was the object of this contest, mile heats, best three in five, The starting at each heat was miserable and the tussle throughout occasioned not the slighest interest. The General broke sadly in ever} at, finally letting Goldsmith Maid win the first three heats and so carry off the laurels and $1,000, The best time made by the winning horse was in the third heat, when she finished the milein 2:32%, making the half mile in 1:17, The meeting closed with the third and best trot of the day, best two in three mile heats, entries eligible to ains owned in the State. Entries were made as follows:—Careless and mate, of Morris- town; Nellie Holcomb and mate, and Gray Mare and mate, of Freehold. After the first heat Nellie and mate were withdrawn and Careless and mate, having taken the lead inthe first two heats, won the pre- mium, $200. The contest was quite keen and drew forth the only enthusiasm which characterized the meeting A large force of constabulary from the Newark and Elizabeth forces maintained excellent order during the occasion. FROM OUR LONDON CORRESPONDENT. The Paris Grounds. Lonpoy, June 10, 1868, Of the mingled toll and glory, weariness and plea- sure of the Grand Prix de Paris I cannot say, with Mneas, “Kyo magna pars fui.”’ I do not regard the event in consequence in the light of “sour grapes;” for I must confess I shouid have liked to be present, and, in fact, intended to entrust my person to the London, Chatham and Dover Railway Company with that view. Man, however, proposes and the exigen- cies of business—I am happy to say, on this occa- sion, not of the state of the domestic funds—dispose. To one who has once seen the great dish of the Con- tinental racing banquet its glories are easily recalled, and if the brief narrative of the event which I am about to give your readers is founded only on, as the police have it, ‘4nformation received,” it is, at all events, supported by vivid enough recollections of former occasions. The great majority of Brittgh sportsmen left for “foreign parts” on Friday evening last, though not a few early birds, bent on catching the sporting worm, took flight days before and spent the intervening period, it may with justice though possibly without charity be supposed, in the ques- tionable delights of the Mabille and In the “flercer joy” of the speculation at the Grand Totel. On Saterday and Sunday nfghts there was a great gathering at that temple of fortune, but the betting indulged tn was meagre in the extreme. The Kari, the property of the erst celebrated Marquis of Hast- ings, who ought to have won the Derby, was fayor- ite, as he had for along time been, but not to such an extent as he was in England, almost to the fall of the flag. The Scotch proverb informs us that “every cock craws crouse on its ain midden,” and the French cock was Suzerain, owned by M. Schickler, who was 60 much fancied on the strength of bis recent victory in the French Derby that his compatriots “piled on” the money at an astonishing rate, Vate Royal, the property of a genuine English sportsman, the Earl of Stamford, whose colors have not for a long time been seen so often in the van as they ought to be, was thought by his owner and many of the public to have a great chance. His running this year in the Two Thousand Guineas, in which, though he carried a jump of Lord Stamford’s money, he did not get a place, wae not reassuring; but his subsequent performance over the Rowley mile, at Newmarket, where he defeated such “clinkera”’ a4 Hippia, Grimston, Woisey and Laneret, seemed to upset his previous form. Captain Savile's horse Blueskin, Who won the City and Suburban, was backed by bis owner for a small stake; but the public did not seem to share his very natural sympathy. é‘lusko, who ran fourth this spring in the New- market Biennial, won by The Earl, with Blue Gown second, and who is a French bred horse, the property of Count de Lagrange, but trained at Newmarket by Jennings, was much fancied by the stable and its followers, The others backed were Sardanapole and Sedan. As I am now touching on the poem | it may not be out of place, in fact, though it may in form, to state that the betting at the start was even against bat ri, 4to 1 against Suzerain, 9 to 2 against Né- Misko, 5 to 1 against @ Royal, 12 to 1 against Biue- in ‘and 100 to 1 each against Sardanopole and Sedan. ihe race exci as might be expected, somewhat of an international rivalry, which has much to do with the growing love of racing nd the rising excellence of French racers, ‘The result of the present contest makes a “draw” between the two countries. In the first year of tts ment it fell to Mr. Savile's Ranger; then it rried off by the French Vermouth; next year was the year of Gladiateur, the redoubted winner of the English Derby and St. Leger; then It was won by the Duke of Beaufort with Ceylon; last year the French once more “claimed it for their own” with Fervacqu and now again it has been carried to Engiand by am English horse, the property of an English owner and ridden by an English jockey. The prize Is one of the most valuable connected with sport, for it consists of an objet d'art given by the Emperor, aud, of course, of imperial and Napoieonic value—100,000 francs, or about $16,000, given, half by the city of Paris, half by the great railway com- ies of France, aud a sweepstake of 1,000 france each, #0 that the whole vaiue thie year may be esti- mailed at about £6,600 or over $22,000. The race ia a urely three year old one, like our Derby and St, Hoge, to colts carrying 121 and the fillies 118 Ibs., (he distance is one mile x furlongs. dance this year, it is atated, showed & le failing off; but it wili be remembered that last year Waa an “Exhibition” year and that the “products of industry” considerably aided the suc- cess of the meeting, The hence of the scene was, however, as great ag ever. Who shall describe the resqueness of the drive through the Bois de the wonderful Kaleiduscopic variety of the ensemble of the Longchamps course, the beauty and magnificence of the parierre of ladies who cover what at Goodwood we cali the lawn and throng the tribunes, the refreshing thickness of the woods that surround the oval course, the brightness of a cloudiess French sky, lighting up and glorifying everything? I aseure you | shali not attempt the task, feeling that failure is probable, complete suc- ceas impossible, and reserving, as | ought, all my “graph: for our own wondrous Ascot. Suifice it to aay that while the Emperor, the Empress, the Prince Imperial, the Princess Mathilde, Prince Lucien and the Prince and Princess Lucien Murat gave an imperial dignity to the scene, Its charm—and what to the eye is more charming than a gathering of Frenchwomen of the - classes *—was supported by suoh a display of millinery as no other city in the world can boast, Husiness was at the same time not neglected; for while the English speculators of the upper ten were represented by Low Stamford, the ' Vale Royal and Suzerain formed a special group in the covered stalls, while Blueskin was indulged with ® walk around the grass plot behind the stands. The welghing was got through with commendabie diligence, and, indeed, could not haye taken long in any circumstances, as the field was reduced to the 1i ificant number of seven—The Earl, Vale Royal lueskin, Suzerain, Sardanapole, Nélusko and Sedan, As usual all the jockeys were English, for, strange to say, our friends on the other side of the channel have not et been able to raise @ horseman who can old a candle, or rather a rein, to me hr English riders, Fordham, the most popular of jockeys, on whom the Danebury stable, and consequently, sinc the retirement from the turf of the Duke of Beaufort, the Marquis of Hasticgs, has “first call,” and who in the exercise of his profession makes, it is said, about £3,000 or $12,000 a year, had the “mount” of the Earl, Custance, one of the greatest riders of the age, but at the same time regarded as one of the most savage, on whom the Chaplin-Machell con- federacy, which owns Hermit, the winner of the Derby of last year, has ‘‘first call,” steered Suzerain, Nelusko was, a8 might have been expected, ridden by Grimshaw, one of the fashionable light weights speoiaily attached to the Frenci or Jennings’ stabie ut Newmarket. Daley, a jockey who, since his cele- brated coup in steering Herinit to victory on Epsom Downs last summer, las become one of our most difatr? riders, but on whom consumption has set iis ell blight, was put upon Vale Royal. Blueskin was entrusted to Maidment, a light weight, of considera- ble renown, and Sedan and Sardanapole carried respectively Watkins and Pratt, who are altogether resident in france, aud whose fame is great, as it is altogether continental. The horses having been got to the post were despatched at the very first at- tempt io, A GOOD START, Nélusko and Sedan going to the front, with The Earl in their immediate rear. The pace throughout Was not good, but at this time was wretchedly bad. Atthe “windmill turn’? Blueskin rushed to the yan at the same time as Nélusko dropped back to fifth Nace and Sedan consented to bring up the rear, The jarl being thus brought to the second position, while Vale Royal was fourth and suzerain ofth, The lot went on in this order until reaching the top of the hill by the Boulogne gate, where Blueskin was deprived of the lead by Vale Royal, who, however, lost it to The Earl when half way down the descent. Suzerain and Nélusko at the same moment drew for- ward, and from the period this race was at an end. The Earl, turning into the straight and keeping clear of his French oppouents all the way up the cords, won easily bya length. Suzerain beat Néiusko for second place by half that distance; Count de range’s horse finishing a length in advance of ale Royal, while Sedan and Sardunapole cautered in at their leisure. As Lhave stated the pace was very bad, the time occupied being 3m, 27 while last year when Fervacques won it was 8m. 12s, Of course the Frenchmen were very much eut up atthe bad fortune of their compatriot Suzerain as well as at the consequent lightening of their purses; but equally, of course, all the English present, whether they won or not, raised @ hearty cheer for the success of the English champion, which cheer it is our duty to state was mainly to be placed to the credit of a certain Joey Jones, who dresses in tle ‘Most extravagant costumes, that adopted on this occasion being the marquise’s broad red and white stripes. It may be well to note that The Earl, like Ranger and Ceylon, was a winner of the New Market Biennial. Both he and Suzerain are engaged in the St. Leger. ROYAL ASCOT, which commenced to-day and will continued till Friday, holds as high a place in English hearts as popular Epsom or glorious “Goodwood.” It is, fact, # sort pg medium” Bescsbva com- these celebrated Mixtures, and scems bine the best, features of both. Though only about -five miles from London, Ascot is happily free from the fearful horde of city ‘‘gents,"’ Kast End blackguards and West End dem monde, who contrive 10 make Epsom @ sort of mili pande monium on the Derby day; while, though not like Goodwood, some sixty miles from London, and there- fore, though distance does not lend enchant ment tothe view, It can boast of almost as an assemblage of the wealth, position, beauty perior of the metropotis, If any of your read- ers should have @ mind to visit the scene, which is one as truly indicative of English taste aud feeling— perhaps a great deal more so—than the Epsom car. nival, 1 would advise them to proceed by the Great Western, and not by the Southwestern, Kailway. ‘The latter lands them within a short distance of the course, but it shows nothing particularly attractive on the way, and it ts excessively dear, he former takes thein to Windsor at a moderate figure in good carriages and at capital speed, and they have irom the great royal residence a magnificent drive throug some of the finest forest scenery in England—tie reat deer park of the Queen's castie, which stretches for about seven miles before we reach Ascot. It is dusty enough, to be sure, with the tearing up of hundreds of wheels over the well worn roads; but one can stand that in view of the glorious follage that tempers the hot rays of the sun, the magnili- cent oaks that have towered around for centuries, the noble battlements of the castle in the distance, and the herds of deer that, eee ims hundreds under =the trees, watch the cavalcade as it sweeps by. Arrived ut the confines of the scene of action, we find it an immense heath, covered in most part with furze, wearing altogether a blighted aopearance, whieh you associate with wild moorland, far, far away from cities, bounded all round by forests of almost Aime- rican luxuriance; but arranged with all the art and provided with ail the comforts of the most splendid race courses in England. The space gives ample facility for races of the greatest length, and (he dif- ficulties are not #0 great as may be found at many other meetings. ‘The stand accommodation and all the contrivances for cormfort, both in business and pleasure, are on the most complete and generous scale, Looking to- wards the stand, or, rather, extensive range of stands, we perceive first, on the right, an euclosure devoted altogether to the “sweils,” and containing at the rear of the open space @ building with ample guileries for their accommodation; another for re- orters, trainers and jockeyé—not that they are swells, but because they require good ‘Oxings’—and @ royal stand for ie Of the biuegt blood. Then there is a subscribers’ stand, and on the left of that is the ring for the members of Tattersail’s and the Newmarket rooms, and a long en- pa it all backed, first by one great stand ih numerous galleries towering, like those of Nebuchadnezzat’s garden, one over the other, and lastly by a long and low range of butidings with two sets of positions for sight-seeing, one directiy on the enciosure, divuled into boxes, which seem a sort of compromise between those from which the awells watch the performauces of Mr. Santiey aud Miic. Titiens at Drury Lane theatre and those in which fast youths of the metropolis entertain jadies of easy Virtue at Cremorne; and avother on the roof, where you way wander about at your own sweet will. By an early hour in the afternoon, that is to say by one o'clock, the whole piace ts well filed; while some parts of it, particularly the grand stand par ercellence, and the betting ring, are crowded. On each side the Vast enclosures which I have hurriedly sketched throw out great yor of spectators, far jess numerous, however, as I have indicated, than the proximity of the place to Loudon Would jead one to expect. Opposite, on the other side of the course, is a long range of vehicles of the beet description, and alto- gether above the horribly motiey display at Epsorn, every roof crowded with ladies and genticmen dressed in their very best holiday attire, and for the most part busily engaged in the discussion of the contents of well filed hampers from Fortnum & Mason’s. English people of the very highest degree throw off restraint in the open airin the matter of luncheon, and the most eT at boarding school miss, who would shudder at the very notion of achop in a Belgravian dining room, here “tuc! into” lobster salad and champagne with @ gusto which rather astonishes the strange groups of show folks, bampkins, dark skinned gypsies and general loafers who in a ring regard ner in hangry and envious amazement. Of the gathering on tire stands and in the enclosures | am almost afraid to speak, so great is the beaut; i #O exquisite the adorn- ment of the iadies who adorn them. Perhaps my fall had better be broken by @ lew facts—which are so much easier and #0 much more satisfactory than any amount of fancy—as to the arrival of the royal arty. poy Our readers are doubtless aware that two at least of the chief days of the Ascot meeting are celebrated by the attendance of some of the members of THR QUREN’S FAMILY, who, since the retirement of her Majesty to her pro- longed ovscurity, are headed a the Prince of Wales. On this occasion bis Royal Highness and party came from Titness Caatie, in the immediate neighvorhood, and, according to time-honored custom, drove in carriages and In half state right up the course to the stand reserved for them and the leading members of the aristocracy. No sight in the world can be pret- tier than that of tne long aicade, preceded by ite body of outriders in ac: and fs. headed by Lord Cotvilie in @ green coat and goid chain, the insignia of his ofice as Master of the Buckhow who was followed by the royal huntsmen and whips of her Majesty's stag hounds. In the first of five carriages were the Prince Princess of Wales, the Crowo Prince of Denmark and the Princess Christian; in the the Duke of Cambridge, the Princess Mary of Cam- bridge (Princess ‘k), Prince Christian and the Duke of Sutheriand; in the third Prince Teck, Bar- Spencer, Gene Knollys and Colonel Keppel; in the fourth and fifth, gentiemen of the suite. As the cortege proceeded up the course between two fies of specta- tors afew cheers were given for the Prince of Wales— perhaps the gentility was excessive or the loymity not very enthusiastio—which he acknowledged with apparentiy superabundant courtesy; while poor Prince Christian, who since is marriage with @ daughter of her Majesty tas been very unpopular, continued raising his hat tn a naittrightered sort of way in anticipation of cheers that he never received, The greeting altogether was an exeeedingly though probably very lashionable affair. 5 Ishall tell in my next what was the result of subsequent laterviews. between the heir it of the crown and his future subjects, and till then I Ond 1 must defer all my comments on the scene rally, promising to su; our readers whin a - full ‘abecriptiog, 80 te ad. my ea wits can retain the facts, of the gorgeousness of the costumes, which made Ascot to-day lke a sort of terrestrial heaven, plenfally supplied with miliiners and their attend- THE RACING, as {a usual at Ascot, was of exrremely excellent qual- ity; but it will be necessary to refer only to one or two of the leading events. The Trial Stake, for all agen, which opened the ball, fell to a complete out- sider—a four year old filly, by Newminster out of Irish Queen—who had scarcely been bac! for a shilling, and who, carrying 132 pounds, ded in. defeating such @ great horse as Sir Joseph Hawley’s four year old Palmer, 144 pounds, and the favorite at seven to four, and Sir Charles Legard’s ilve year old Vespasian, 149 pounds, the second favorite at three toone. ‘The latter was second, and a two year old— Emerald, 77 pounds—was third. The two year olds throughout did not show to much advantage. The Maiden Plate was won by acolt belonging to Mr. Hodgman, a member of the ring, whose Paul Jones won the Chester Cup, and who defeated no fewer than twenty-tive others, of whom Mr. G. Leicester’s Miss Nellie managed to get second, M ville’s The Rajah third place. Her Majesty’s Gold Vase was one of the chief events of the day, but brought out only four of the seven subscribers, though these Were among the most celebrated animals at present in training, Julius, the great four year old colt belonging to the’ Duke of Newcastle, who has always run a graad horse and has scored innumerable victories, was made favorite at three to one on him, Baron’ Rothsehild's tive year old Dalesman was backed at six to one and Blinkhoolle a four year old, the property of Mr. Chaplin, was sup, ported at ten to one, The only other candidate was the colt of Toxophotite out of Miss Savah, four years old, owned by the well known Lord Glasgow, one of our very oldest turfites, Blimkhoolie made the run- ning with a slight lead of Julius, who was followed by the Miss Sarah colt, Dalesman bring upthe rear, At top urn the last took second place, while Lord ows colt ran into second place, As they de- tod the hill into the portion of the course called Swinley Bottom Dalesiman ran up to Blinkhoolle and the pair went on together a couple of lengths in ad- vance of the favorite. At the Swinley mile turn Blinkhoolie shook off Dalesman; but the latter once more drew up to him after rounding tie turn and they ran neck by neck until Mr. Chaplin’s horse again shook off his adversary at the straight, Jullus at the same time taking second place. Blinkhoolle ultimately won by a couple of lengths, and the Duke of Newcastle's horge managed to get second place, Dalesman be- ing last. blinkioolie was steered by Custance, Julius by Challoner, the Miss Sarah coit by Fordham and Dalesman by Daley. The Prince of Wales stakes, another important event, was contested by eight runners, of whom Formosa, the dead heater for first place in the Two Thousand Guineas, and winner of the Oaka, Was made favorite at five to two; Moslem, the other dead heater in the event mentioned, was backed at seven to two; King Al‘red, Baron Rothschild’s horse, who ran second in the Derby at four to one; Restitu- tion, another string of his, whom we once supposed to be a “‘clincher,”? aud perhaps does yet, for neither he nor his trainer ever knows the form of his horses, at eight to one, and the notorious Lady Elizabettyat one hundred.to six. The others were Purveyor, Tympanum and Morteme? Lady Elizabeth was oif ‘first, and held the lead for the first two hundred yards, when she was headed by Tympanum, Purveyor lying third, Formosa fourth and Restitution next, the rear being brought up by King Alfred. They ran in this way into Swinley Bottom, where the Danebury filly fell away into the rear in company with Restitution and King Alfred, Formosa meanwhile running mto second place. Half-way across the Bottom, however, the Oaks victrix took up the running at an tmproved pace, Mortemer being her immediate attendant, Lady Eliz abeth by this time belug beaten and tolling helpless}: in the rear. After passing the Swiniey mile post, Moslem having come rapidiy up, showed momenta, rily in advance, but Was almost as speedily passed by Restitution, the latter betng joined by his stable companion at the half-mile post, the Baron's pair be- ing attended by Moslem on the left and Tympanum on the right. The contest now became o@ most ex- citing one between Restitution, King Aifred and Moa- lem, to whom the race was now confined, and who i, almost abreast of each other to the distance, when King Alfred drew out froin between the other two, and without being again headed won rather cleverly by a length from Restitution, who finished three quarters of a length in advance of the Two Thougaud dead-leaier; Tympanum was a bad fourth and Purveyor uext; Formosa and Mortemer, pulling up, were sixth and seveuth, and Lady Elizabeth, beaten off, last. Daley rode King Alfred; Morris, Restitution; Chaloner, Moslem; 8. Adams, Purveyor; Cameron, Tympanum; Canuon, Lady Elizabeth; Fordham, For- mosa, and Parry, Mortemer. ueen’s Stand Plate was won by Sir Joseph Hawley’s dve year old 7A, (134 pounds), who easily licked the Duke of New- castle's new two year old Abstinence (93 pounds), the four year old Van Amburgit (138 ands) Viridia (128 pounds), Barrington, four year old (110 pounds), sister to Virst Flight, three year old (114 pounds), and The Dean, four year old (117 pounds), The Great Achievement, “the Modern Crucifix,” who de feated Hermit in the St. Leger and performed many other splendid feats, was easily disposed of in the Triennial Stakes by ndrake, who last year won the Great Ebor Handicap and the Liverpool Cup. The Ascot Stakes was carried off by the Maid of Warham filly. ‘This resuit was doubtless quite as surprising to the owner of the filly as it was to a large portion of the public, as | am told she was not backed by Mr. Payne for more than £100, Mr. Payne received the filly as a gift from the Karl of Glasgow, and being @ “gift horse” she was not, {t is said, looked upon as up to much, notwithstanding that when the num- beix were hoisted she was the favortie at 100 to 30. Sefore the start, however, she retired to 6 to L. NEW JERSEY. Jersey City. Sutcibg IN THE County JaIL.—A man named James MeCabe, who was committed to the county jail last Monday on a charge of bigamy, hanged him+ self with a roj in his cell yesterday after: When the warden entered the cell at two o'clock man was well as usual hour later he was found swinging, quite dead.
