Reauty and fashion chatted gay’ ,y with chivalric man on the grand svand and in Cr rriages, or waved handkerchiefs in honor of the W mning horses, ‘The track was in splendid condition to-day for speed. The first event was a hurdie race, with four ‘at?,rters; the second a selling race for two-year olds, Qad the Sequel Stakes, two miles, for uiree-year- | ‘olds, Five started on the race, and a more briiant struggle from end 0 end bas not ocen witnessed at this meeting. The starters in the hurdle race were Lobelja, Oysterman, Jr., Gerald and Morris. Oyster- ‘man, Jr..was a great favorite prior (o saddiing, selling: for as much as all the others combined. After run- ming one mile and aquarter on the lead, and being closaly pressed at the time by Lobelia, he ran into instead of jumping over the hurdle, falling down and throwing bis rider, Mr, Alloway, over his head, Alloway was on his feet in an instant, bus unfor- tunately not in time to avoid being struck down again by Lobelia. He was stunned by the biow he received from the mare, but was not dangerously hurt, After the fall of Oysterman, Jr, La- belia bad a very. easy time, as the other two had been disposed of prior to that time, and there was no interest in vhe last half ‘mile of the run. second race was interesting from the fact of the jour youngsters who run being the get of different sires, The winner, His Lordship, was by Kentacky: the second being by Knight of St. George and the other one that won a@place was by Censor. The fourth in the race was by Planet. His Lordship is a fine, large, powerful colt, and resembles his sire very much, He cut out work from wie start, was never headed, and won a@ caplial race. The third event, however, was the feature of the day. Five excellent three-year-olds started, with the regulation weight of 110 pounds up, and ran the two miles in the gamest manner. Maggie B. b., by Ansiralan, won the race by a head, alter a despe- rate finish with Major, Mr. Morris’ Cavalier, by Eclipse, belng third, two lengths behind, This colt looks and runs very much like Narraganset, Cava- lier, however, only beat Mr. Crouse’s bay Olly Re- se for third place by a short head, The fifth one, . Swigerv’s Witchcraft, was well up with them ali atthe finish, The following are details of th es in the order in which they came off:— THE FIRST RACH was over eight hurdles, two miles, with welter Weights, for aii ages, $500 to winner and $100 to sec- id horse. For this affair there were entered and started McDaniels & Alioway’s Oysterman, Jr., by Oysterman, dam by Phil Brown, six years old, car- rying 146 tbs.; James Thompson’s brown mare Lo- Delia, by Bonnie Scotland and dai by Capitola, aged, carrying 145 ibs.; Eliott Gray’s bay horse Morris by Lexington, dam Margaeret. Morris, aged, car- rying 1468 lbs.; Charles Elkins’ black gelding Gerald, by Mickey Free, dam Rosette, six years old, carrying 143 los. Oysterman, Jr., Was the favor- ite of the fele. Previous to the start the hardles were placed in prominent places on the track, where They could be plainly seen ta the best advantage by ‘the spectators. The first was about forty yards trom ‘the starting or judges’ stand, (he second a short dis- tance beyond the quarter-pole, the third also on the backstreich near the half-mile pole, and the fourth at the drawgate on the homestretch. Oysterman, Jr, was the first he Morris second, Lobelia third, with up. They went over the first hurdie in thts ord the three leaders each giving the top rail a rap as they passed over it. Going around the upper turn Oysierman, Jr., mude fast ronaing, and opened tree lengths of daylight, Morris Second, Geraid *hird and Lobelia fourtl When they took the sec- ond hardle Oysterman still showed ihe way, Morris second, Gerald tard, Lobelia trailing. They all made iis jump cleanly, The positions of the horses were unchanged on the way down the backstretch they passed over tue third hurdle with Oyste ar., leading, } pnd, Lobelia third ud Gerald fourth. ‘1 had a long run on the flat re before they wet the fourth hurdle, and during tals > ran Lobelia passed Morris and run up clos Oyeterman, Jr., and these two jumped the fourth hordie in beautifnl style, When they passed the stand atthe end of the first mile Lobelia was on ysierman, Jr.’s Dank and forcing the pace strongly. ‘Toe fifth hurdie was taken first by Oysterman, dr., by a length, Gerald third and Morris fourth; several lengths behind. Lobelia stiil kept forcing the running, Oysterman, Jr., devermimed to keep the lead, rushed on the sixth linrdie at such a racing pace that he never took tinte to raise himself for a juinp over it, but strack it and fell down, throwing his rider on the track. Fortunately for him, he was not dangerously injured. Lobeiia now had the race to herself, and she ran steadtly on to tue end, taking the hurdies on the way gracefully and winnt: ten lengths; Gerald second, four lengths in advanc of Morris. The time of the two miles was 9:67. THE SECOND RACE was a selling race for two year olds for a purse of $500, three-quarters of a mile. Those entered to be sold for $2,000 to carry 100 Ibs,; those for $1,500 allowed 7 lbs. ; those for $1,000, i Ibs., and those for $500 21 ibs, “There were only four starters for the frace—Thomas W.

Temptress sold for last in the pools prior to the start. The youngsters had a very good send off and Went away fying, His Lordship leading, Temp. fress second, Virginia Dare third, Richard's filly bringing up the His Lordship opened 2 w! fap to the half-mile pole, and passed there iour lengths in front of Temptress, who was one lengtli ahead of Dare, the Jatter being two lengths dn advance of Richard’s filly. His Lordship kept the ¥ap open around the lower turn, the others getting ‘close together and closing upon His Lordship. At the tnree-quarter pole the run up the homestretch was very interesting, His Lordship running under the string a winner by a length. ir. Richards’ fily was second, two lengths in front of Temptress, who ‘was about the same distunce in front of Dare. The ume of the dash was 1:183g. ‘This is, we believe, the first win of any of Kentucky's get. ‘The coit re- sembies his sire greatly m color and genera! appear- sauce. THE THIRD RACK was the Sequel Stakes for three year olds, two miles, $50 entrance, play or pay, $750" added—the winner of the Belmont or Travers Stakes seven pounds ex- tra; of both these events ten pounds extra.

After a few breakaways the horses started on very even terms. Witchcraft soon went to the front, Major second, Regards third, Maggie B. B. fourth, Cavalier trailing. They passed the guarter- ple in that order nose and tail. Going down the ackstretch Regards went to the front, and as they ‘Dassed che half-mile she was still in the lead, Major second, Witchcraft third, Maggte 3.

Sanford should have been placea second instead of Pompey Payne in the mile dash yesterday, the jatter being third. Edenton should have been placed in the selling race third, instead of Viiey, the jurlges having made the mistake, THE PROSPECT PARK RACES, The fonr ri to take place at Prospect Park track on Thursday and Friday next are attracting the attention of all horsemen. They are looked for- ward to with more than ordinary interest, and wit afford a fine entertainment to all lovers of the sport. The purses have been exceilently selected, weil Milled, and will doubtless draw a great attendance, notwithstanding so many patrons of the turf are at present out of town. The contest between the two mares, Lady Thorn ahd Goldsmith Maid, Is looked fo ae the leading event and large amounts of money TnI RRnennetneee demeene een ‘NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, JULY 20, 1870, Wil be staked on the resuit, The betting at Sara- ‘toga on this race was even yesterday. As to the Condition of these two mares Goldsmith Maid is ooking ‘remarkably fine every way. Lady Thorn is also tn good condition, and though she looks robust and large, stii she bas bad plenty of work and has trotted @ race this spring, a clroumstance that does 80 much to put a horse to fine condition. But she has & bad migh hind leg, having apparently sprained or Wrenohcd her ankle, which sie favors Conaider- ably in the stable, though her oid trainer, Pfifer, thinks it will not affect her speed in the race inuch, ‘As there te fome difference of opinion a8 to Lady Thorn’s age it may be of interest Co state that her real age 18 fourteen years iast spring.

A rivairy has existed for some tume on (his point between the horsemen of the two cittes, and though the #oston horses have shown the fastest Ume on record, still the New York team won that same race from them. Honest Allen will trot with Kirkwood, imstead of License, as originaliy mended, and as he is such @ splendid pole horse the race jx sure to he a hor one.

For several weeks past the olfactories of the resl- dents of the lower portion of Westchester county have been compelled to come undér the influence of the most horribie and pestilential vapors arising from the fat boiling establishment of Richard Stoker, located on the low ground of Unionport, near the Boston road. Ail over the villages of West- chester, Throgg’s Neck and Centreville the odor is 80 offensive and nanseating that tamilics find it necessary to shut themselves up in the hot, stifling atmosphere of ther houses as their only means to prevent a loathsome sickness. The estabilshment is chiefly used for boiling fat, which is brouglit in loads from New York tn a putrid state, and subsequently sold to soap manufacturers, The most intense indignation prevails throughout the infected district, and the Inhabitants are firmly re- solved that the nutsance shali be broken up, though much opposition is anticipated. Mr. James Ellis, who for more than twenty years has guarded the heaith of the natives of this section of Westchester county, and others, ave amxed their names to a paper stating that the gases arising from the foul ai Pp are unendurabdle and polsonous, in ‘order’ to obtain a bill of iwdictment agamst Stoker, who will be taken before the Grapd Jury at White Pioins without delay, i g | nto, 3 New York.
