~ THE SARATOGA RACES. Wourth Day of the Summer Meeting. Ma ngni ficent Attendance, Glorious Weather 3 and Exciting Races, Pyiterman, Jr., the Winner of the Hurdle . Race, Two Miles Helmbold “Walks Over” for the $800 Purse, Two and Three-quarter Miles, and Judge Curtis Carries Off the One and a Half Mile Prize. BARATOGA, August 16, 1870, ‘Phe fourtn day of the summer meeting of the Sa- atoga Racing Association, passed of with great Yéclat, although there was a dash of disappointment pat a in the fact that the second race, twp and three-quarters, had but one entry, and the of the horse Helmbold took the $800 purse having any competitor. There was a bril- fit one of spectators present, the grand galle- oF the stand being crowde to their utmost ex- tent. The day was glorious and the track in excel- condition. Among the gentlemen of prominence not before on the greensward in front of the Grand were:—George Bliss, of New York; ©. Matone and R. H. Vance, of Mom- his; A. H. Hawley, of Rutland; U. H. Smith, Michigan; T. E. Woodbridge, of Vermont; H. W. ett, of Oregon; RK. R. Sloane, of Ohio; K. Ennis, jf St. Louts; Colonel A. Denike, of New York; G. H. \Williamson, of Cincinnati; H. O'Donnell, of Eng- land; W. G. Hiblor, of Philadeiphta; Admiral Boggs, ‘United States Navy; James Day, of Albany; Profes- por Manan, of West Point; R. Torres and G, Her- Mandez, of Matanzas; 8, N. Jones and Dr. W. T. Leach, of Louisville; G. W. Buriiugame and M. J. Moore, of Iowa; I. D. Eddy, of Vermont; W. Todd,, or Chicago; G. W. Julian and F. Julian, of Indiana; WJ. Creighion, of Fort Covington; Judge Dowling, Matthew ‘I. Brennan, Judge Connolly, Charles B, Ransom and Joe Shannon, of New York. “4 WALK OVER." When it was known that the second race of the day, @ purse of $809, for all ages, two and three- quarter miles, had but a single starter, and that it must of necessity be “a walk over,’ there were (general regrets and disappointment manifested. It ‘Was thought to be a shame that there were no com- peting horses whose owners would not let them go tthe distance for the sum of moncy offered: General Buford would not be tempted to start Enquirer, but ‘Sent him to Cincinnati on Monday to keep certain Pugagements in the West, and so the association ad but one alternative, the spectacle of allowing ‘Helmboid to walk over the course, and his owner thus ‘easily to pocket the purse. It was the opinion of Many old and influential turfites that such work must stop or racing will lose its interest. These men argue that the gentlemen who conduct the Saratoga course are thoroughly familiar with the requirements of success, and also, from the natural bent of their minds, the practices of ‘their lives and the duties of their position, equally familiar with the real necessities of a first class racing course, These , officers feel a commendable and natural pride in the Masociation andall that pertains to it, They are continually studying its interests and suggesting im- vements, but they have made one mistake, the disputable f of which 1s apparent to-day—the giving of such small purses for races of considerablo stance and placing the iarge sums at the disposal of horses chat rau short distances—and unless they want to be recreant to “heir duty and their own interests, there must be a change in this respect. The pian to give all norses a chance is well enough; but that the assuciation shall confine themselves to the characier of contests that only cali for horses equal to a rolle, a halr mile, or less, and not give ‘those of more endurance an equal chance, 13 wrong. Tie matier is simple. It 19 not one of those puzzlin Bwords which cut both ways, for the fel for the “improvement of the horse’ is wide, and if inducements are offered horses of endurance and speci will be found whose owners will ac- opt the reater distances, and thus the ‘best bioode in the country will con- tend for the offered stakes, At all events rials of this character must be made, and then it is Bafo to say there will be but little occasion to lament over such @ spectacle as was to-day presented to the assemblage on the course—no competitor of Helm- din a race of two and three-quarter miles, Then and not till then will the race course advance ‘to that prone pre-eminence desired, and which with aliowabl (ulation can be pointed to as its ac- Knowledged po ition, due to the earnest endeavors of such gentlemen who wiil have their rewards in ‘the conscious pride that the matter has been well done. There seems tobe a general agreement on pill sides that the class that has attended this meet- 4ng 1s superior in many respects to any that has preceded .it for years. It will be remembered that the same compliment was it . Paid to the first meeting of the scason; so it would eeem that we are in the age of improvement, and it would be well to remember that the disappointment , 0! such people ‘don’t pay,’’ and there is required a ‘searching scrutiny tw be made into the short and long race business, to study the likesand dislikes of the populace and adopt such @ course as will not allay the enthusiasm incident to the amusement. ‘These, perhaps, are points on which diiferences of Poth a are likely to be lasting; but those who know 6 disappolutment this ‘walk over” of ‘to-day occasioned among the drinking turi- men and the probable result of the con- @ipuance of short dashes consider it a sub- ject of inquiry; and, although Saratoga and other ions vave carried the horse-loving commun- ty by @ brilliant coup de main, and they repose somewhat upon their Jaurels, will they do so here- after, and can they affect a well maintained inditt- ference in the premises? Of course there are other ‘causes which deter owners of horses from entering thom in races of long distances besides the small amount of money oflered—the practice of training two-year-olds for races. The preparation of Buch youngsters is too severe for their lungs and limbs, and they are consequently de- siroyed for any other purpose but short dashes before they reach maturity. This system of early training is carried to such an extent that yearlings are frequently seen galloping with’ boyson their backs, That this is wrong need not bo further ‘urged, and that the practice should cease must com- mend itself to all, Another reason may be advanced ‘which has been instrumental tn bringing about this result, and that is the cupidity of breeders, They force their stock for early disposal im the mar- et, not caring to walt for the time when ‘ura will not prematurely cause the decay of their animals, Sir Joseph Hawley and other cminent turfmen of England, — it Many educated turf exponents of this Cat are at present en- deavoring to do away with this system of racin: horses 80 young—now being initiated here, an growing into great popularity—as they are fully aware, and have 80 expressed themselves, that the Supposed deterioration of the Beg ees of the horses of this land is nothing cise than the evil of Mestroying the horse in its 1ofancy. Notwithst ling. te. teol fer oF lotwithstand © feeling of disappointment mnivers.] last night over the two and thrpe-quarter mile race, the interest attached to the other contests brought an immense assemblage to sie course, ladies there were in great num- bers, radiant in beauty und brim full of excitement over the prospective exoltements attached to the hurdle race and the keen trial of Ren. between those first ciass racera Belmont’s Glenelg and O’Donnell’s Judge Curtis (late General Duke). After the harrow haa gone over the track the last time and the hurdles were being put in Place the murmurs of approbation equati @ny Previous occasion of anticipative piecasure, and . Many were the conjectures of the robable result of the race. At half-past twelve o'clock promptly the bugle warned the jockeys to mount, and, amid the Glapping of hands and the watving of handker- chi the horses speeded away for the first hurdle, the race the interest seemed to tncrease, and when the victory was won by Oyster: man, Jr. his jockey received well merited applause for the gallant achievement, Sel- burd. however excit- ing it may be, and the feeling of popularity With which such contests are received, pro- duce more genuine pleasure, The hurdie race of %o-day can be numbered, and will be remembered among the mosi brilliant of its character, ether the clippers Gleneig and Judge Curtis produced among the members of the NOW York delegation the greaiest excitement, Although © the lormer horse was the favorite, and had shown Fepeatedly what he could do, the latter had his hereuts, and ali the odds oiered were ac- -Cepted by them. At first it was thought by wome that Mr. O'Douneil had con iderable courage In starting I's horsejagainst Mr. Belmonts; but when ‘they reflected upon tue character oi each, tt did not gcem 80 surprising, and before the race Judge Cur- tis hed quite as many sanguine friends as we favor- ite, although they could buy him in pools of $1,000 There was a hush on ‘tne for about haif tuat sum, assomblage for @ second aftor the horses started; but they rushed by the stand for the first time’ the shouting and choering tor the jockeys and the ad- vanced position of Judge Ourtis ciallenged an equal mark of approbation.

T, composed. of many gentlemen ‘knows, tiroughout thee country, and i eeucoess of the occasion was matnly due to their earnest work, The Racing. The track was in complete order this morning for fast time, and the atmosphere was balmy and de- Mctous. The excitement on the mile and @ half dash was beyond anything that has happened since the race at the last meeting between Helmbold and Hamburg. Gienelg was the favorite last night at 100 to sixty, but this morning the backers of Judge Curtis were willing to lay even money on the favorite. Greenbacks by the thousands were posted, and tho hurdle race was almost forgotten in the desire of the Partisans of these two horses to bet on the result. Just before the start, however, the Glenelg backers made their horse the favorite at 100 to sixty. ‘Three events were on the programme—the first a hurdle race, the aecond a dash of two milea and three quarters, and the third a dash of a mile and a haif, There were four starters in the hurdie race—Oysterman, Jr., Sir Joseph, Mor- ris and Raven. Oysterman, Jr., was the favorite over the fleld, iis previous successes over hurdles, stone walls and ditches warranting his backers in thelr speculations. Oysterman, Jr., won a fine and closely contested race, Morris having driven him ore pegraniog to end. The latter was a good Bt . Tu the second race Helmbold had no competitors, and he'galloped the distance {or the gratification of the admiring y ‘The third event was @ grand race between Judge Curtis, General Yorke and Glenelg, the other horses boing a of the ie from the commencement. Breathless suspense died the multitude from the time the flag fell to the and when the winner assed under the string the enthusiasin the crowd beggars desert ton, Glenelg was very unfortunate at the start, for 43 soon as the flag fell to a very even send- of he wheeled and took several jumps the wrong Way. By the time he was turned Uon the others were fifty yards anead of him. His jockey then forced him to his utmost speed and overtook Tom Woolfolk and General Yorke at the three-quarter pole, This rapid running at the be- pany Wag undoubtedly the case of Mis defeat by eneral Yorke, Whether he could have beaten Judge Ourtis isa problem that may be decided at some future time. The Glenelg party, of course, Were terribly chagrined at the result; but 1t was one of the events that frequently occur on the race course. THE ¥IRST RACE.

The first hurdle was placed across the track about fiity yards beyond the judges’ stand, the second a short distance from the quarter pole, the third near the entrance into the lower turn, the fourth about midway up the homestretch, the horses having to go twice around the track. The horses had a capi- ‘al start, and ran at the first hurdle rapidly, and as they passed over ft every one of them gave it a rap. Oyaterman, Jr,, was the first one over, Morris sec- ond, Raven third and Sir Joseph fourth. Going around the upper turn Morris took sides with Oys- terman, Jr.; aud as they passed over the second hurdle Oysterman, 3r., was @ length in front, Morris second, Bacon third, Sir Josepn bringing up the rear. Some of them knocked down the hurdle, maktng the way clear on the eecond round. On the backstretch Oysterman, Jr., opened a gap of 2 length on Morris, but when they came to the third hurdle he was not over a ity in front. Both of them jumped clearly over it, Sir Joseph being third, four lengths away, and a length ahead of Raven. There was no change in the position of the horses on the lower turn, and as they jumped the fourth hurdle, on the homestretch, Oysterman, Jr., still led one length, Morris second, Sir Joseph third, Raven foarth, Running up to the stand Sir Josepno closed up. As they passed under the wire Oysterman, Jr., was one length in front, Morris second, one length atead of Sir Joseph, who was four lengths in ad- vance of Raven. The fifth hurdle was bt taken by all, Oysterman, Jr., first, Morris second, Sir Joseph tnird and Raven last. The latter now began to give up the chase, and fell back. Ip going over this hurdie Sir Joseph's rider lost his sti meh and he was busy trying to get his foot back again all the Way around the tura. At the sixth hurdle, which. was flaton the ground, Oysterman, Jr., led two lengths, Morris second, Sir Joseph a few lengths behind; Raven out ofthe race. The horses all made strong running down the backstretch and gathered cioser together, At the seventh hurdie Orsterman, Jr, led one length, Morris second, a length in front of Sir Joseph. Getting into the lower turn Morris made his run and took sides with Oysterman, Jr, and they ran head and head to near the three-quarter pole. Then Oysterman, Jr., was half alength abead. They came on at the top of their speed, and as they flew over the elghtn hurdle Oysterman, Jr., landed while the other was 1a the air. From touch of the spur Oysterman, Jr., dashed away, while Morris, atter landing, hesitated a@moment. This slight delay made his defeat sure, as Vysterman, Jr., gained an advance of a couple o| Jengths, Sir Joseph gave the contest up after get- ting over tho last hurdie, A beautiful ran home brought Oysterman, Jr., in a winner by a length ana a haif, Morris second, six lengths ahead of Sir Josesh, who was/400 yards tn advance of Raven. ‘Time of the two miles, 3:57.

As the flag fell for a start Glenelg, after taking one jump forward, wheeled and lost thirty yards to begin with. Judge Curtis took the lead, General Yorke second, Tom Woolfolk third. They ran in this way around the lower turn, spread out about three lengths apart, with Gleneig thirty yards behind, but the latter came with such @ rush that he caught Tom Woolfolk before he reached tne three-quarter pole. Coming up the homestretch he took second lace, and as they came tavtit up the stretch tna’ passed under the net . ug he was within @ length of Judge Curtis, Gene- ral Yorke four lengths behind and Tom Woolfolk six lengths further off, Glenelg tried nard for the lead around the upper turn, but Judge Curtis would not resign It, the quarter pole Judge Curtis led a length, Glenelg second, six lengths ahead of General Yorke, who was two lengths in front of Tom Woolfolk. Going down the “backs stretch there was daylight between Judge Curtis and Glenelg, and at the -mile pole the Judge had two lengths the best orit, The whip was then applied to Glenelg, and, responding, he closed up the day- light fora moment or so; but getting into the lower turn he again dropped back a Leg tah and the friends and backers of Judge Curtis began to exult loudly, But just at that moment they began to spy danger in the distance, for General Yorke Was coming at a pace that was iear- ful to behold. He was within~ three lengths of Glonelg as the latter came into the homestretch, Judge Ourtis tan length and ahaif. On they came, and atevery bound General Yorke was draw- ing uearer, and shouts were heard of ‘Yorke wins," He came on at a truly dangerous e; but Judge Curtis was laying down to his work in earnest and was too near the finish to be beaten. -Firty yards from the siand General Yorke passed Glenelg, and as they-rau under the wire General Yorke was at Judge Curtis’ tall, It was imeky for the latter that tne distance was no further, aa had there been one hundred yards ‘more round to be run General Yorke ‘would have en very likely to have won. Judge Curtis wou the race by a little over alength, General Yorke second, a length and a hall ahead of Gioneig, who wus 100 yards in advance of Tom Woolfolk. Time of the dash, 2:40}4.

Adaoiiral Farragut’s Sacconsor. ‘There {8 no doubt that Vice Admiral Porter will sucgeed the lamented Farragut as head of the navy, Information has been received here that the Presi. dent has already expressed his intention on the aub- ject, a fact which was unnecessary to know, as the President in making selections for office 1s always gulded by considerations of fitness and services ren- dered the country. Vice Admiral Porter has ren- dered more valuable services to the government in ita hour of need than aay living oMcer of the navy, and aside from his present rank 1s, there- fore, entitled to the promotion. Your Oorrespondent was. toll of a little faot which displays tho frankness and honest recognition of merit possessed by President Grant. During tho siege of Vicksburg General Grant ad- vised Porter to make @ movement of which the Ad- miral did not approve. The Admiral, however, though not believing in the propriety of the move- ment, followed the advice of the General, and, in consequence, lost one of his vessels. General Grant, in writing to @ friend here in Washington, said that he owed very much of the success of his plans to the admirable co-operation of Porter, and added that once he bad advised Porter to make a movement which caused the loss of a vossel, of which Porter never made @ complaint or even men- tioned subsequently. Paymont of Revenue Officers Unable to Take the Iron-Clad Oath. The bungling loegisiation at the last session of Congress has imposed upon the Attorney General an amount of work, in the way of rendering opinions as to the meaning of certain laws passed, hitherto unknown. Another illustration of this fact has just come to light in reference to the payment of internal revenue and customs officers and Treasury agents employed in the tnsurrectionary States during the years 1865 and 1866. Very few, if any, of these officers took the “tron-clad” oath, and by the terms of the act of 1862 no officer was entitled to any of the salary or other emoluments of his office uniess ho kad taken that oath before entering upon its duties. Application having been made by William J. Phiilips, appointed and cominissioned an assistant assessor in Texas, and who performed the duties durlag tie years above specified, without having taken the oath, for his pay for that time under the provisions of section eleven of the Civil Appropriation bull, passed July 15, 1870, the Acting Secretary of the Treasury re- ferred the clatm to the Attorney General for his opinion as to whether provision was actually made for this class of officials, In repiy the Attorney General quotes the section which authorizes pay- ment to such persons aa were actually em- ployed in tho insurrectionary States im connec: tion with the Treasury Department as oficers of tho United States during the years 1865 and 1866 in connection with the revenues of the government, and says that he cannot conceive for what purpose this section was enacted except that of authorizing compensation to persons circumstanced as Mr. Phil- lps was. There is no repeal of the law of 1862 so far ag it refers to the officers employed, yet the Attorney General 13 of the opinion that the tmpediment ts removed by the passage of the section quoted and that he 1s satisfled that is its legal effect. Under this decision the Treasury Department has com- menced to pay these clatins. The amount required for the purpose will be nearly a million of doilars. New York Custom Howse Appointments Con- firmed, The Acting Secretary of the Treasury to-day con- firmed the following appointinents in the New York Custom House :—J. H. Kimberly, clerk; John Brophy, John Campbell, George Young and Hugh J. Riley, inspectors; H. J. Hite, messenger, and William Ben- nett, porter, Internal Revenue Decisions. Acting Commissioner Douglass, of the Loternal Revenue Bureau, has been asked by Acting Commis- sioner of Indian Affairs whether the Cherokees have, by the existing law, the right to manufacture and sell tobacco within the Cherokeo territory without Payment of revenue tax, and Mable to pay tax on manufactured tobacco; whether they are also liable to pay aspecial license tax as manufacturers, give bonds, render statements and give returns, and do other things required of tobacco manufacturers under existing laws, within the States and territories of the United States, The Acting Commissioner re- plies that the Cherokees, or membersof the Cherokee nation, aro lable to pay, by means of suitable stamps aifixed to every package of manufactured Yobacco, the internal revenue tax imposed by the sixty-first section of the act of July 1868, and that, too, whether the tobacco ia manufactured from icaf tobacco grown upon Cherokee soil or not. The Acting Commissioner reserves his reply to the other questions until the return of Commissioner Delano. A letter has been received at the Bureau of Inter- nal Revenue asking whether the manufacturer's special tax assessed against pork packers, &c., will be abated, or whether the tax aiready paid will bo refunded. Acting Commissioner Douglass replicas that the act approved July, 1870, relieves pork pack- ers, &¢., from assessments under section four of the aot of March 31, 1868, and from the payment of the tax already assessed on the sales under that section and not paid, It does not relieve those parties from. payment of special tax as manufacturers; netther does it provide for refunding of the taxes already paid therefor. Special taxes cannot be abated under the act referred to, nor taxog already paid refunded. Revenue Steamcr Contracis Awarded.

In retaliation for the long- eared imputation Mullins declares that Butler is everything the reverse of a Christian, a patriot and €n honest man.

A Man Killed by a Wound in the Eye= Strange, Discharges from tho Opthalinio Cavity. Mr. John H. Snyder, Superintendent of the Fye and Ear Infirmary, at No. 216 Second avenue, noti- fled Coroner Schirmer yesterday evening that he Would be required at that institution to hold an tn- quest In the case of a patient who had died suddenly from a wound in the eye, Further investigation in the case by @ H#RALD reporter resulted in the dis- covery that the deceased was Thomas Shea, aged twenty-one, a native of Ireland, and formerly residing at No. 803 Second avenue, and a barkeoper by occupation. Un the 7th inst. Shea entered the Infirmary of his own accord, and showed that he was suffering from a fearful wound or injury in the region of his right eye. The ball of the organ protruded over the cheek and in- flammation had set in Learn gee He stated to the surgeons in charge that he had been quarrelling and fighting with two men up town, and that one of them had struck him over the eyes with a common broomstick. From the appearance of the wound the physicians presumed that the internal inflamma- tion had caused the ball of the optic to bulge out as 10 did, so used the necessary paliiatives and dreas- ings, in order to reduce the heat and inflamma- ton, They were progressing favorably until Sunday last, the patient not exhtbiting any unusual prostration; but they were on that day much astonished ty the appearance of a large splinter or segment of a broomstick making its appearance from the CT pages cavity. the removal of the wooden splinter gave the sufferer considerable ease and relief from pain, yet he lan- guished visibly, and on Monday was still further prostrated by the discharge of another spitnter. So rapidly dit he sink that at three o'clock yesterday afternoon he expired, It subsequently appeared that the man who had imiicted the fatal wound was Michaed Munday, who resides over the liquor store of Thomas Sussier, corner of Forty-second street and Second avenue, where Shea was employed. Twe men came into the place from Real's funeral and actea in so disorderly a manner that young Shea put them out. One of the intruders lost his hatin the straggie, in the hallway, and when Shea went back to get it he met Munday coming down stairs with a broken broomstick in his-hand. Being intoxicated, he nad been exctted by the row, and, under the impression that Shea intended to attack him, he samamace the broomstick into his eye, A warrant has heen issued for his arrest, and he wiil be held to await the action of the Coroner.

He had sometime previous, she said, treated her in such an outrageous style that the police interfered and he was taken to the Tombs; but on promising in the most solemn uanner to turn over a new and brighter leaf sho, at the suggestion of Mr. George Kellock, agreed to let him come back. His conduct was worse, however, and he declared that she must get her own living, even if she had to go on the streets and prostitute herself, She alleges further that on one oceasion he sent one Patrick Temple and an- other man toher rooms tn Bleecker street to perpe- trate an outrage of the most fiendish character on her. They Weht so farasto break into the house where she was stopping, but were compelied to de- sist from carrying out thetr alleged project by her Persistent cries for help. Marshal was a pinmber, but has lately been devoting himself, when sober, toa certain patent; but will not do the first thing for the support of his wife and child, though he 18 now receiving large profits from his atents. He has a brother, a highly respectable lew York lawyer. Mrs, Marshall, who, like her husband, is a native of Englan., had with her a letter from Mr. Kellock setting forth that she was found by New York police starved and abandoned and recommending her a3 a person of “pee and respectability. The Newark authorities have taken her case in hand and wilt see that Jersey justice will be fully meted out to her husband, SHIPPING NEWS. Aliuauac for Na “Tals Dan 512 6 55 Sun rlses Sun seta.
