Papas and mammas, in that coaxing way which the accom- plished young lady of the period knows so well how to affect, were consulted and the pro- gramme spread before them for endorsement. it embraced a score of hopa; attendance at the grand balls to be given at Congress Nall to- Might and at the Union on Tuesday night next; the Faces every morning In (nat “beautiful turnout, you know, pa;” private dinners of delightful trout at the Lake; drives In the evening to Gien Mitchell; few Rew dresses and two or three dozen articles of tollet suggested by what has becn seen since at- rival. Papa didu’t say mach—he wouldn’t haye com- Plained if he had wanted to; for, like a sensible man, he knew what he was about whea tho “girls camo ‘to Saratoga,” and lis mind was fixed on paying a mripg of bills as long as the moral law, and in amount big enough to make a lean pocketbook look very unhea'thy or a bachelor’s blood runcoli. So the work of the mecting was arranged, and the young ladies Legan eurly aver dinner to evince their determination to see it throvgh. Charming eqnip- ages were on hand at the Umon, Congress and Clarendon about four o'clock, and having nou- fed their gallant cavaliers that all wes in readiness, the fashton and beauty of the village weutto the Lake or to the Gicn, or spun along the beautiiul roads which skirt this romavtte spot, all of witch Wes commendable. ‘Those who didn’t ride walkea Broadway at the eyening hour in lovely attires, and seemed forgetful of the past, less of the fntnre but bent and determined on enjoyiug the present to the very ‘uilest extent, ‘The a‘vernoon gone, aad the ecstatle language In- uly) in over th sing rustic Surronn dings whigh nature has so symmetrically moul sed—and seen dur- a drive in any direction i Us uetghborhood —also: forgotten, the ladies went io work ia trunks and boxes for the first of the regular series of hops dur- Ang the season at the tifand Union.

In this great resort, this artery of summer life, is the most coamio- Politan of gatherings, Other localities have their specialties and are famous; but here ig almost every variety of pastime presented to the lounger and city-begrimed worker. In Broadway, at the Lig of the season, repre- Bentauycs from nearly all the nations of the world may be met. it is a fine fieid for the ethnological student. Here you meet, besides your own country- swarthy Spaniards, mercurial Frenchmen, pinck-cyed Italians, sturdy John Bulls, stalwart Milcsians, Y ege Bavarlans, meditative Ger- Mans, plodding Dutchmen, any quantity of sable Africans, and Dow and then a long-talled immi- @raut, just from Central Flowery Lund, aud no one would ‘be surprised at encountering a Kafir or Polynesian. in fact, nothing surprises anybody here; and althongi its hotels, its springs, andits cottages are striking features, its tors are most attractive afterall.

The first named was the favorite against the field, and he won the race very easily, realizing the high estimation his backers bad placed upon him. Two ofthe norses—Bohan- non and Morris—met with accidents tn the early part, of the race, which tended greatly to the victory of Oysterman, Jr. At tfe firat jump the atirrap of Morris’ rider's saddle broke, which threw his chances cnurely out, while the rider of Boban- non made @ mistake not long afterwards and ran the wrong way while on the lead, and he had to re- turn to the plaoe where the error was made, and by the ume he was on the right. track Oysterman, Jr., was 100 yards away from Bim. This blunder on the part of Pepper, the rider of Bohannon, was severcly criticised by the backers of the horses, and gome spoke boldiy out and suid it was done pur- posely. Of that, however, there was no proof, and it would bo well for the’ losers to bear thelr Losses philosophically and keep shady. ‘Lobelia ran.a very good race, but the distance appeared too far for her. She closed up at the finish, but that was more by Ailoway’s kindness in waiting for her than to any great turn of speed of the mare.

A panic came over those who had sven the acckleut and could realize the danger of the horse and jockey. Neither of\them could be seen to rise when the horses passed on, and crowds rushed to the spot to ascertain the result. Metatrie lay where he fell and could not rise, and it Was believed that he had broken his spine, The rider was badly injured, but we hope mot fatally, The race, after one-half tho ground had geen gone over, was a struggle between air, Morris? flily by Belipse, dam Fidenry, and Mr. J, J.

Tho delight and enthusiasm while this charm- ing race was being run kucw no bounaa, The horses engaged were all in fine condition, or, as th trainers would call it, “at themseives,” and, being nearly all of an age, they had to carry top wetzhts. ‘The arrangement of the grounds for this aieeple chase excelled ing of the kind ever before planned in America, every jump bemg in sight irom all the stands, the farthest one not being much above a from the spectators. The horses were started in the field behind the judges’ stand and ran ciose to the tence of the iractional track towards the haif-inile pole. The first obstacle the horses met was a stouo Wali. Oysterman, Jr., was the first one over, Lo- belia second, Bohannon third and Morris last. The second leap was over @ fence topped with brush. Oyaterman, Jr., showed the way, closely followed by Lobelia; Bohannon third. Morris following close up with the others, notwithstanding that his ruter had broken a stirrup. ‘Tne third Jump was a fence at tho end of the track, and Bohannon was the first to take the leap, Oysterman, Jr., second, wobelia third, and Morris briaging up th Tne horses had now coursed al! around the“lower turn of tho fleld, and coming tothe three-quarter pole they meta stone Wali, Which they all got over like birds on the wing, Bohanuon and” Oysterman, Jr., head and head. They arose and came down mde and side. Lobelia third, twenty yards behind, about three lengths in front of Mortis. horses now came up towards the grand stand, where they met a fence, after get- tog over which they wheeled to the southward and encountered _a hedge. Botannon showed the way, Oysterman, Jr., second, Lobelia third and Morris fol- lowing ata respectable distance, They thea turned in & Westerly direction and had a leap over a stone wail and @ pond of water, which, being near the spectators, elicited shouts of admiration, Bohannon was the first one over by a length, Oystermau second, Lobelia third and Morris fourth, The horses then crossed the fractional track, having two leaps over the fences, and getting into the upper fleld met a formidabie stone wall. Before reaching there Bo- hannon‘s rider made a great mistake and had to re- trace his steps, which threw him far in the rear of all the others. The twelfth leap was over the fence into the track, near the uarter pole, then over the fence, and the fourteenth jamp was down the embankment into the outer field beyond the reguiar track. Oya- terman, Jr., had a commanding lea‘, being over one hundred yards in front of Lobelia, Morris tuird, while non, by his accident, was very far be- hind. The néxt jump was over a heage, the horses shaping their course easterly; then over @ fence, and again over @ stone wall. The elghteenta we. was over a _ fenco on the distant fleld. Oysterman, Jr., was over first, Lobeiia second, Morris third, while Bohannon was struggling on an eighthof amile behind. They then crossed the track in a northerly direction, jumping tne fence into an inside ficid. The twentieth jump was into the fractional track, whioh was followed by another over a fence, inio the east section of the inside fleld; Oyster. man jeading, Lobelia second, Morris third, while the chances of Bohannon seemed entirely gone. Here a hedge had to be surmounted, there a fence and ditch, and the twenty-fourth juinp was a stone wall and ditch, the horses rauning to the westward, They then again wheeled and took the water jump in the centre of the fleld, the horses’ heads pointing to the south. Oysterman, Jr., showed the others the way handsomely, Lobelia second, Morris thud and Bolannon as before. They then again had a double juimp over two fences on either side of the fractional ok and over a stone wall; next, wheciing in a westerly direction, they met a fence in the field, which they all few beautifully over. Tic thirtieth Jnimp was over a hedge and ditch, the horses run- ning northerly and making @ circuit of the inside fleid. Oysterman, Jr, was still im the van, golng in capital style, but he here ran on the wrong side of the dag and had to go back. This, however, did not affect lim much. Lobeiia closed pomeetan, but not enough to frighten Oysterman’s backers; Morris third and Bohannon last. now turned in an easterly direction and encoun. tered @ stone wall and ditch, but these obstacles seemed but play for the horses, the jumping was done so well. Then they came to a fence, which they gracefully bounded over, and, the fleiding being pretty well over, the horacs begin to sharpen their pace, ‘The thirty-third jump was over @ stone wall, and the thirty-fourth over the fence tnto the regular track at the half-mile pole. Oysterman?Jr., had a great lead, Lobelia second, Bohannon third, Morris naving run the wrong or by which he lost nearly a quarter of a mile, Awsy they went now for the finish, there being but two more jumps to make, and these hurdles on the track, ome about midway of the lower turn and the other on thejnomestretch, at the draw- gate.

Francis Woods, another of the victims of the late Elm Park riot, was buried yesterday from his late residence, No, 623 East Ninth street. A poor laboring man, having been recently cmployed at the Navy Yard, Brooklyn, had hws death occurred under ordinary clicumstances, saving his widowed wife and fatherless chil’ and a few intimate relatives and friends, there would have been none to honor his lifeless remains; but happening as his death did through the bitter strife of two religious factions, and thus throwing about ft the halo of a religious martyrdom, @ large number turned out to do reverence to his remains and follow them to thelr final resting place. The hour fixed for the funeral was two o'clock P. M., but long be- fore this hour the street and vicinity were thronged with people. There wero ‘THE WILDEST RUMORS ATLOAT. It was rumored that a desperate riot was imminent and that the body would be snatched from the comin and subjected to such indignities as the fury of an en- raged and excited mob might and, doubtless, unre- strained would have visited upon it. Throats of ven- geance were freeiy uttered, and certainly among the crowd were many yho looked ready and ripe for any mischief, Happily, in anticlpation of the throngs it Was known would be assembled in the vicinity, tho MOST AMPLE MEASURES were taken to prevent apy breach of the peace. Oap- tain Mount, of the Seventeenth precinct, in pursu- ance of orders from Superintendent Jourdan, do- talied his off platoon, consisting of twenty-one men and a reserve of ten additional men, to see that or- der was preserved, A number of theso men were stationed im the street fronung the house, and others placed on posts in the vicinity, Policemen from other precincts were stationed along the in- tended route of procession. TUE FUNERAL SERVICES were very brief, being conducted in small front room in the upper story of the tenement house where the deceased iately resided. But few could get into We room, but the narrow and dark passages ‘Were Compact with people, all anxious to obtain ad- mission, but unable to do so. ‘wo clergymen, Rev. Mr. Smith and Rev, Mr. MeGulre, coudueted tie ser vices. The sOrmer, in the course of his remarks, stated that on @ former occasion, while with other Protestants celebrating the anniversary ot the battle of the Boyne, he was nearly killed by an assaulting gang of Catholics, and in the recent riotous attack at Elm Park was among the wounded, though tor- tunately escaping with slight bruises. Tne Lord bad spared hii thus jar, but had taken to himseif the Christian brother whose death they then monrned, He eujomed that, Wiouga lamenting tho death of the deceased, her should remember that God’s land was 1 it, and that tus Was one or his mani nd inseratable mysterious ways of help- jug forward the great cause of true Christianity aod humanit, The reigions services ended, then were EXPOSED TO VIEW THB REMATNS, They were placed inaneat but plain coMn, On ‘the coflin was a simp inscription, giving the name and age of the deceased. ‘the ouly otuer decoration was the Orangemen’s colors. The face, though there were suil visible upon it the cuts und bruises received 1 his struggie for life on that fatal Tuesday, looked very natural. It took some ume to get through with “this aiter portion of the ceremonies, there was such a crush and rush to get @ view of the body and the room in which they were lying, 60 inconvenient of entrance and exit by the large crowd. At length the cofiin, tie lid having been ciosed and fastened down, was brought down stairs by the palit boarers—placed in the hearge waiting in the street, to which were at- tached two horses, Through the skliful management of the police the procession was speediiy ranged in {ts proper order. Tue summons . 4 ALL PROTESTANTS FALL IN LIN previous to forming the line of those Scoompanying the remains on joot was the only thing said or done, excepting the display of Orangemeu’s colors, that by any possibility could be construed as likely to excite to tumult the dense throng of lookers-on, most of Whom were Catholics, and who filied every vacant Space In the street and every doorstep and window, and even the house tops in the vicinity. The folow- ing was the ORDER OF PROCESSION. Three Hundred Police, in files of four, under com- mand of Superintendent Jourdan and Drill Captain Copeland, The Hearse. Two Hundred Processionists, on foot, in double file, Sixteen Carriages, Two Hundred more Police, under command of Cap- fain Bennett. The last police fell in during the route of march, having been previously stationed at intervals along the sireets ugh which the procession was to ass. The procession moved through avenue Bto ‘enth street, across Tenth stree} to Third avenue, down ‘third avenue to the Bowery, down the Bow- ery to Catharine street, through Catharine street to ae cbse and, crossing the terry, thence direct to the place of INTERMENT AT GREENWOOD, All along the route thousands gathered to see the Procession pass; but the utmost quict and order psi, ‘a result, doubtioss, to be attributed to the arge and formidable police escort. On the Brooklyn side @ police escort accompauicd the remains the Test of the way, and, by their presence, pF order to the final close of the obsequies at the a Testing piace oi the deceased. The only ARRESTS MADB were before the procession started. In Ninth street three men, who itis siated belong to the gang of of laborers on the Boulevard, became quite noisy and demonsirative in their talk, and the result was their arrest by roundsman Irwin, of the Seven- teenth precinct, and thelr conveyance to the Seven- teenth precinct station house, where they wera locked up to await an examination before a police Magistrate. The prisoners gave their names as Joho Halpin, Michael Dillon and James Downiug. SPOILING FOR A FIGHT. A Warlike Man With a Curious Name Search- ing for Orangemen and the Result. One of those cases which from time to time come up in police courts, and to understand which it would take one of the wise men of the East, came before Justice Bixby, at the Yorkville Police Court, yesterday. So compiicated was it that it is doubtful even if the well-palanced Judgment of the Justice comprehended the case after a thorough in- vestigation, Steplien K. Hogeboom was arraigned charged with ant-Orauge principles, inasmuch as he went up to Patrick Tighe, who was digging a sewer in Sixty-ninth street, and asked him if he was an Orangemun or if there were any at work there. Pat was not, of course, an A. P. A., and told the fellow with the long name so, when that young genileman, who pretended that he was drunk, took up a pick which was lyiag ciose by and threatencad with it to do Pat bodily harm. He thought better, however, of sach an tutegtion, aud throwing down the pick waiked off to a shoxt distance, where he fired on Jonn Murphy, the foreman over the work. This was the evidence for the pfosecution in sub- stance as it was developed on tie investigation. The evidence for the defence followed, which consisted simply of the prisoner’s statement, Mr. Nathan Nesbit appeared forthe prisoner. To those who knew Mr. Nesbit, who is hiinseif a member of the American Protestant Association, or Orange organization, the fact of his appearing to defend the man who, if the evidence for the prosecution be true, thirsted for the blood of an Orangetuan, does not look very well tor him, and every A. P. A. siiould know it, The pri- soner said thab he was only scouring out his re- ; Volver and saw no one whatever, much legs to fire Gi any person. He was committed without. bail to angwer. This will, it is hoped, be a warning to others equaily inclined to spill Urange blood or Cath- olic either, Hogeboom said his people for genera- tions back have been Americans, and that his name 18 English, and that it was jrom England bts ancestors came here, {le is also a Protestant, PUBLIC SCHOOL RECEPTION. One of those most refreshing entertainments took place Thursday evening, in Primary School No. 32, at Fort Washington, and of which Miss Annte T. Morrissey is principal, consisting of readings, recita- tions, tableaux and choruses. This school is situated on the road to Inwood and midway between Kings- bridge ana Carmansville, and is quite suburban fn its location. ‘Ihe best features of the entertainment were:—Song, ‘U)riven from Home,” by Miss 0. Phillips; a duet, “Little Nell,” by two sweet little children, Misses Ryer and McGill, aged respectively five and six years, and reading by Miss McDonald. ‘The tableaux were neatly done. Mr. John Stratton, chairman of the Board of Trustees of tne Twelfth ard, presided, and smong others present were Messrs. Charles Piace, Andrew Smith and P, Dunt- can, trustees; Inspector Hosea B. Perkins, Lawson N. Faller and others. Altogether it was a most enjoyable affair and highly gratifying to the parents of ihe scholars and others Who were present. AN INSANE MAN CUTS His THROAT.

Iris’ Sympathy with the Americae—Mr. Bennett and the Herald. (Prom the Cork Dally Herald, July 2.) ? ‘As the time approaches for the great mternational yacht race the intercst in the event increases, and it is almost needless to mention that the popular sym- pathies are on the side of the American craft, Our readers are aware that she is owned by James Gor- don Bennett, Jr., of New York. Ho is the only son of James Gordon Bennett, the well known founder, proprietor and mauager of the New YoR«K HERALD, perhaps the most lucrative newspaper Brena in the world, Its success has been solely founde! on the extraordinary sagacity_and- enterprise of the elder Mr. Bennett. In carly life he emigrated from Scotiand, hia native country, for America, prefer- ring. to. faco the world and eara his fame by industry to remaining in tie old country, where, a3 the scwh of a re- spectable “but reduced Qutholg family, his lot might have been one moie or less of gontecl joverty.

By steamship at this port yesterday we have mail reports dated in Europe to the oth of July. ‘The Dissenters of Liverpool, England, have taken exception to the views enunciated by Baboo Chunder Sen in his public addresses on the conver. sion of Indla to Christianity. On Sunday the subject was referred to from several pulpits, one Presbyte- Tian minister going so faras to say ‘that Mahomet ‘was more of a Christian than Sen.” The Papal envoy at Paris was sald to have warned the French government that tne Italian party of action was miditating a coup de main at Rome.

Archduke Albert of Austria was the guest of the Emperor of Russia. The Archduke Albert of Austria was received at the Austro-Russian frontier by Adjutant General Knorrin and numerous oficers, The Czar, wearing the uniform of an Austrian General, awaited the Archduke at the railway station. His Im- perial Highness was dressed in the uniform of a Marshal of the Russian army, ond was heartily received by his Majesty of Russia, @ military band striking up the Austrian national air. The Uzar conducted his Imperial Highness to the Castle of Lazienski, where he took up his residence, and where a squadron of Uhians, of which the Arch. duke is commander, are quartered.
