FLEETWOOD PARK. @Mlose of the September Meeting. ‘b Grand Attendanco—Two Capital Trots—Fanny Lambert the Winner of the Two Mile Heat Purse, and Lucy of the Purse for Horses that had Never Beaten 2:22, With the setting of the sun yesterday afternoon ‘the last heat was trotted of the September meeting at Fleetwood Park. The attendance was the largest and most respectable that had ever eongregated at this delightful and popular trotting ground. The ‘meeting has been a great success, and the decisions of the judges in the races have given general satisfac- tion to all right-minded men. The rules have becn ‘adhered to and delinquents punished as they should have been, and henceforth gentlemen will feel satis- fied that at Fleetwood Purk they can see trotting “ou the square.”” ‘There were two trots on the programme, the first being two mule heats for a purse of $1,600, $000 to the first, $400 tothe second and $200 to the third horse. For this race there were six ¢ntrles, com- prising James Duguy’s bay mare Fanny Lambert, M. Roden’s chestnut mare New Kerlin Girl, John Mur- phy'’s bay mare Lady Sears, L. L. Hutchinson's chestnut gelding Ed Hills, J.J. Bowen's brown mare Lady Ellis and Charles Richards’ brown geid- ing New Haven Boy. The two last named did not put in aa appearance at the time of starting, This race was won by Fanny Lambert after three very fine heats, m most excellent time, She won the first heat, and this so much dissatisfled the owner of New Berlin irl that he changed adrt- vers, taking M. Roden from behind the mare and giving Hiram Howe the veins. The first heat was trotted by Fanny Lambert in 5:09',; and New Berlin Gir), with the change of drivers, won the second heat In 6:04. On the third heat Lady Sears came in ahead; but for running up to the others after pass- ing the three-quarter pole on the last mile the Judges would not place her second, and declared that Fanny Lambert was the winner of the heat ana raoco. If Murphy had trotted fairly ne could not have lost the race, as his mare was quite fresh at the Anish of tne third heat, while the others were com- pletely exhausted, So much for sharp practice; but probably Murphy thought of what the departed Wheelan was wont to say—‘You cannot win by stay- ing bebind.”” The second race on the card, but the one that was started first, was for a purse of $2,500, for horses what had never beaten $1,500 to the first horse, $00) to the second and $400 fo the third; mile heats, best tnree in five, in harness. For this purse the entries were W. H. Doble’s buy mare Lucy, W. Borst’s brown stallion George Wilkes, John Mur- y's Day geluing Henry and Budd Doble’s bay geld- ing Hotspur. ‘The last named did not start. Lucy won the race aiter jour closely contested heats, taking the first, third aud tourth heats, She came in first on tne second heat, but for running she was set back and the heat given to George Wikes. The Jollowing are the deta.is:— THE FIRST TROT.

Boston, Sept. 23, 1370. The fall meeting at the Beacow Park closed to-da; after a successful continuance of four daya, The attendance of visitors was larger than on the previ- ouss day and the sport more than equaliy exciting. But one event was on the programme, and that was the race for all horses, the amount of greenbacks offered being $5,900; $1,500 to the frst horse, the second to receive $700, the third $600, the fourth $300, Thére were but three horses entered, viz. :— The b. m. Goldsmith Maid, the b. g. Mountain Boy and the b, m. American Girl, and upon the ringing of the bell the veteran McMann waa the first to appear, with Vanderbilt's Mountain Boy, who seemed to be in flue form, and who on the whole trotted a better race than he has dove before for some time. The mares soon ‘followed, and leoked in excellent con- dition, as the result proved they were, the Maid being fit to trot for her iife. There was but littie betting, the Maid being the favorite at $409 to $49, Iu some pools she was left out, and the Gud sold at three to one over Mountain Boy, First H at,—On drawing for places the Boy won the pole, the Maid second and the Girl outside. On the second trial the norses came down handsomely and were given an excellent send of The Girl put on a tremeudous jurst of speed, and at once dashed ahead and took ihe pole trom the Boy, who kept the second place, the favorite betag a trifle in the rear: and so going toward the turn Daniels kept the Girl at hee speed, and snowed the others the way to tue quarter pote, and showed aso that she was @ good deal better Mare than her friends and backers had supposed shewas. Going dowa the Brookside stretch oble sent the mare to the Boy's wheel, and soon after passed him altogether, the ‘atter falling back a coupie of lengths. The Girl led a length to the quarter tn thirty-three seconds, the Maid two lengths in advance of the Boy. Up the atraight side the mares kept up their clipping pace, American Girl retaining her advantage and showing o length ahead at the half, in the very fast time of 1:083;. It was a splendid race, and those who had laid the long odds on the Maid berran to think they might have made a mistake, it was something of a reilef to them when they saw the Maid gradually but surely close on the Giri, and half way up tue Toad- side stretch the latter made the first break in the race, the Maid betng so close upon her ag to show in front at the three-quarter pole, The Giri vroke again at the head ot the stretch, and when the Maid got into the stratght work home sho had an 0 ngtu the bi of it Daniels sent the Girl alter him, and she responded so well that the Mata was obliged to keep lier speed up to tis utmost to beat her out a length, i the very fast time of 2:204, the fastest imade on this track since its enlargement. Mountain Boy broke halt way down the stretch, but was soon down to his work, and was a good third Secon’? Heat,—On the fl scoring the Maid le: her feet before she reached the wire, and on the second aud third the Girl prevented une wora being given by her breaking. Tue fourtn time they came for it they were sett olf, the Mad being a trite in the rear, the Boy having the best of iton the outside, ‘Tue pace was af ¢ Girl breaking but three or four rods iven nd, aud the Maid dash. ing ahead t lead before th MeoMann the 4 ‘as veacled, i tied up th de very hands: itrl leading the ns.

In the meantime the Matd had assed the quarter pole, leading the Girl a couple of lengths, in 34% seconds. On the backstretcn the Boy made anotuer very wretched break, losing half a distance more. After making the balf in 1:11 Donle eased the Maid ott considerably, for there wag nothing to be gained Nf sending her at full speed c id had the quarter pole easy manner, maxing the haif tiie nt the last hi earthly chain any longer. When McMann got tne Boy level the last timo he sent him to save his distance; and thei occurred one of the finest exnibitions of speed ever seen on this track. i The gelding trotted like the wind up the roudside stretch, and was soon alongside the Girl, whom he passed as though she had been tied. Dobie with the Maid was too far in tho lead to fear for the result, but the Boy kept on just the same, aud kept his rapid gait until within four rods of the wire, when he broke, the Maid veating lnm out two ibs in 2:20%.

To Tug Evrron overug Heratp:- In summer, 1364, during a temporary absence of our ite Consul General, Mr. Thayer, in Paris, his agent, a Mr. Danese, struck the dag because tne ypilan government retused to admit the claims of Messrs. Kindeaego brothers, the younger of whom claimed United States protection, The two brotuers Kindenego were formerly under Austrian protection, and the younger managed to get the United States protection from Mr, Edwin de Leon, who during the Crimean war, it 13 said, made over sixty thousand pounds sterling by granting the United States proiection to Greck subjects extied there by the local authorities, and justly, too, on ac. count of their avowed Russian sympathies, The claim of Kindenego brothers is based on certain properues in the neighborhood of a forton the out- ekirts of Alexandria, Tins claim has been con- tested by the Kgyptian government from the vegin- ning; tworevver, at has been decided in proper time by the Austrian consular authorities agatust tie Kindencges, and this adverse decision caused tue er brother to change protection with the view in juugment reversed in a court stector, The property ia question has of his new pi changed hands tor these many years and belongs now to the Bank of Egypt. Mr. Hale, the successor of dir.

Butler took that Greek, and as his Vice Consul, too, all the way irum New York to Alexandria, when there was one ou the spot who filled the charge both honorably and gratuitously for the last twenty years, is a riddle to which only that Kindenego suit can give the key, one of the brothers speaking Eng- lish very tmper.ectly aud the other none at all. a Victor Barthon, born In Alexandria, but of New England origin, speaks aad writes English perfectly weil; this is the case also with French and Itaila then he converses perfectly well in Turkish, Arabi aud Greck, ated iast, not least, le is very well kuown by the Khedive, Ismail Pacha, as the new Consul Gen- eral had the opportunity to find out at the earliest Tuceting With the Egyptian Prince.

He has been supplied with funds, arms and amounition by his friends, and is fully pre- pared. The brother of the late President Santana 8 now in Port au Prince, ona secret mission from Cabral, and is actively raising and despatching money and munitions of war. In this he meets with considerable opposition. The Haytien govern. ment, having pledged the United States government to maintatn a strict neutrality, has refased any ald for Cabral, and has declared its intention of interfering only in case of aggression by Baez or violation by him of the neutrality laws. The old friends ot Dominican independence and of those who helped them during their rebellion against Spain, together with many of the people, are, how- ever, how secreuy sending funds, arms, ammuni- tion and provisions to Cabral and seeking in every manner to assist him without violation of the neu- trality laws, It1s confidently expected that with this material atd-he will succeed. The Senate and Congress at Port au Prince have postponed the con- sideration of the proposals for raising a loan for the purpose of establishing a national bank on a specie basta, they not considering it at present judicious to abolish parer currency, and Intend i-suing currency of various denominations, but of a uniorm type.

FRE IN WESTCHESTE Mysterious Explosion and Destruction of Properiy. Shortly bejore ten o'clock on Thursday evening an explosion occurred in the drug store of Julius W. Hupfeld, at Fordiam, Westchester county, which set fire to the buildmg and others adjoining, involv- ing a loss of property to the amount of about $30,000, The explosion, which, it appears, took place In the cellar of the drag establish- ment, was accompanied by a loud report, the concussion blowing a clerk named Harmann from the store some distance into the street. Ina few seconds the building was enveloped in flames, from which two familles living in the upper portion thereof had barely time to escape with their lives, Notwithstanding tons of the Morrisania fire department structure was entirely destroyed, with two othr smnaller buildings adjoining. Hupfeld’s loss ls estimated at $11,000; insured for $6,050in the Green- wich, and Mechanics and ‘Traders’ Insurance com- anies of New York. Martin Bell, harness maker, joss on stock and furniture, $4,000; insured for $1,500. Mapes & Mack, clvil engineers, loss $3,000; partially insured. The buildings, which were owned by John 8. Haskin, were valued at $12,000 and insured for $5,000 in the Westchester Insurance Company. The cellar contained a quantity of acids and other inflammable matter, but the cause of the explosion is not kuown. TUE STEAMSHIP DISASTER IN JAPAN. Additional Incidents of the Explosion at Jeddo—Brutal Ureatment by Native Physi- claus-Sufferings of the Wounded. CHICAGO, Il., Sept. 23, 1870, The following are additional details to those already sent of the explosion of the steamer Jedd in the harbor of Jeddo, Japan. The death of many of the victims was hastened if not actually caused by the Japanese doctors, These men have a bitter hatred towards foreign pbysicians, and do mot wish to see their people treated by them. These native doctors took of the bandages that had been put on by the foreign doctors and substituted their own treatment or the wounded. Nearly ali who were thus dealt with died, It is reported that most all the wounded Japanese have died, but as they were scattered all over the city ft 1s doubtful whether the number of deaths is exactly Known. Several Japanese have toid me that, including those killed outright and those who nave since died, the number is over one hundred and twenty. If gach: is the case a large number of deaths must have been caused by bad treatment from the Japanese doctors, for the woundeil foreignérs and several Japanese who were entirely under the treavment of the foreign doctors ave duing well and will doubtiess recever, although wome gf tue were severely scalded. LITERATURE. ag Oriitetaman ef Now Rooke. PAIS IN DucuMann, 1851, on Tae Jour D'KTAT oF Navorgon III, By bugene Tenot. New York: Hurd & Houghton. In 1868 M. Tenot first published this work, and the great circutation it has had in France attests the vaiue placed upon its contents by the French people, It was not to be expectod that an ardent republican like the autnor would praise the Emperor, and we are, consequently, not surprised to percetve in every page evidences of the most Intense hostility to Napo- Jeon, Indeed, the work 1s, througaout, an arraign- Ment and deauaciation of the man who overthrew the republic aud re-estalished the empire, The language, however, 13 so cautious that while every Teader ig satisfied that every line ts bitterly hostile the skill of the author has saved his work from sup- Pression, M, Tenot confines himself rigidty to facts, His clear, analytical mind enabied him to divest the events of December, 1861, of the mass of absurdities and exaggerations with which tn- terested writers on both sides had surrounded it, Those who have read M. Cassagnac’s ac- count of the covp a@éiat, must remember its Partisan spirit, whtle those who have read King- lake’a history of the Crimean war will recall to mind the reckless assertions relative to the same event made by the historian. M. Tonot controverts many of the statements made by imperialist writers, which, of course, was to be expected. Singularly enough, in more than one important particular he comes in direct confict with Kinglake aud the other @nti-Bonaparte authors. Jf we take, for instance, ihe charge that the soldiers fred upon the citizens without the siightest provocation, and that this wanton taking of haman life was a deliberate deed, designed to strike terror in the heartso the Part- sians, we Ond it expiteiuy disproved by the clear and impartial narrative before us, M. Ténot shows that the troops were first fired upon, and in this he set- {les a much disputed question in history. ‘The terri- ble fre which the soldiers opened and kept up on the people is, of course, very properly denounced and commented upon. Indeed, the book through- out alms to be and ts impartial. It 1s, in short, an admirable review of the political events preceding and during tie progress of the coup d'état. Ls Publication now is timely, and the book will be read with the deepest interest, ‘The translation 1s excellent, but the transiutors deserve ho credit for thelr appendix, which {3 frequently coarse and brutal in its style of treating French ia- Derlalists. The appendix is the only part to which the slightest objection can ve made, and it must be on the score of good taste. But the main part of the -work is admirable, and as such we commend it to the pubite, One of the best works on the subject that we have seen lately is Dr. Peck’s “Elementary Treatize on Mechanics.” (New York, A. L. Barnes & Co.) Asis cldimed in the preface ‘it embraces all the clemen- tary propositions of mechanics, arranged in logical order, rigidly demonstrated and fully islustrated by Practical example.” The caiculus 1 omitted from the work because of its being either not taught at all or only an optional study. A careful examina- ton of the book satisfies us that tt is in every respect an admirable elementary treatise. Two good school books are the elementary and tn- termediate parts of ‘Guyot’s Geographical Series.” (New York, Charles Scribner & Co.) ‘They combine accuracy with simplicity, and will be found as valua- bie to the teacher as tustruciive to the ciiid. The “Intermediate Geography” is particularly deserving of praise. About the most remarkable thing in “Beyond the West," &c., 18 the exceedingly long title of the work. it would take up far more space in the HERALD than & notice of the entire volume shall occupy. The con- tents, however, though not at all new, are not without interest, and the information giveu of the several States and ‘ferritories “‘peyond the West’’ (whatever that may mean) will doubtless be found of value to the reader. The book 1s published by T. J. Grititna, Of Utica, and ts very neatly printed and bound. An old acquaintance, in the shape of ‘Harper’ s Hand-book for Travellers in Europe and the Kast,” lies before us. The new edition has been corrected ‘up to 1870, and is, if that be possible, more reliable and valuable than ever. It 18 not likely that there wil be many tourists leaving here for Kurope dur8 ing the remaining months of the present year, but should the war between France and Prussia cease before the next summer season begins we may ex- pect a great rush of viattors to the battio-felus of France. To these and to all other tourists we re- commend this guide-book, It seems to be the pecultarity of most living french novelists that they are incapable of deptcting social Ife without making two-thirds of their characters libertines and immoral women. ‘Camors,” by Oc- tave Feulllet (Phitadelphia: T. B. Peterson & Bro- thers), is one of this class of stories, It purports te describe Partsian “high life’ at tne present day. A great deal of miserable materialism and infidelity are | shown up, relieved only by a couple of exquisitely pure women and one noble old man, who drops dead upon discovering bis wife's dishonor, But the general impression left upon the mind by this novel 4g that all the aristocratic young men tn Parts de- vote thelr entire time to the infamous work of se- ducing the wives of thelr friends, benefactors and acquaintances generally. The Magazines. Havper’s for October 13 protusely ilnstratea, and 1s full of entertaining papers. Vhe most noticeable are ‘The Young Men's Christian Association,’ “Six Weeks in Florida,” “How Sharp Snafies Got His Capital and Wife” (a capital story by the late W. Gilmore Sims), “The Spectroscope,” “The Sacred Flora” and “Tie Faun of Praxiteles.” The maga- zine Is, throughout, unusually good, Ty the Galaxy two novels, neither very starting, ure continued. The short articles are excellent and comprise numerous subjects of general interest at the present moment, ‘The “Memoranda,” by Mark ‘Twain contains several good things, ence vs. Luck" being particularly rich. Hours At Home for October 1s admirable. [1 is the last number of the magazine by its present name. Hencelorth Svrivner's Monthly, the new illustrated periodical, will take its place. Messrs. Scribner & Co. promise to publish a first class monthly. Putnam's Magazine will be merged to it, We shall part with Hours At Home with deep regret. It has always been ope of tie best con- ducted of our monthiles, ‘The Eolectic Magazine contains several exceilent articles, compiled trom the foreign periodicals. The scientafic and historical papers are unusually good. The Catholic World for October: fatiy maiutains the enviable reputation it has wou of being one of the ablest conducted magazines in the country. The contents of the present number are varied and interesting. Light, spicy and agreeable throughout, Lippin- cou's Magazine for Uctober will be heartily wel- comed by the reading public. 1t3 stories are quite fresh and original, and are superior to the average of those published in our periodicais. In spite of its intense toryism, Blackwwood's Maga- zine 13 one of the most readable of publications. The september number is admirable. “Newman’s Poems,” “About How the Old Egyptians Lived and Died,” “Milly’s First Love’ and “War Letter of Major Corkhardt” are excellent papers. + —————at ene PRESIDENT GRANT...
