I was a llitie excited when I got up there ina baggy. The best I can do is to hire a buggy. Iam not from an aristo- cratic family, aud 1 was very much troubied because Thad an idea that I would not be received well when I got there. I am a very queer fellow. No one knows me better than myself. Let me say that I have travelled. What am f{ Qoing in this weil* dressed and perfumed crowd? Here are the most_ beautifal and refined women tnat the island of Nan hattan can chow, The Grand Stand 1s a bouquet. Since the ever memorable day that Kentucky rau agatust time—I ‘was then very young In racing—I never saw such a day. I crossed the track ‘rom the quarter stretch, and though I had come up ina bugey I met people whom I knew, Ihad stopped on the road with two men. One of them I shall ca)l the Great American Good Resolution Maker." He had been riding glongside of me as far as Macomb’s dam. He wanted to arink all the time, and that was What the matter was with him, I spoke to lim—in fact, there is no man in the world can give better Advice than me. He told me that he liked a gin cocktail. isaid to him, ina quiet way, “Don’t drink any more; you have a family to take care of, and I want to see you might, I am no fool. I am a square man.” Being as I was, a little fresh, I advised the young manin my companton buggy to rest om the road. No, he wouldn’t have it. Whea we got to the Park, and when every man that we Knew was cougratulating us on our sate arriya!—of course this was glone in a derisive way— my iriend wanted to buy pools, Now, if a man buys pools he had ought to know what he is doing, My friend in the buggy bad about $809 in bis pocket, aud bis word was good for $300 more, Now, I never liked the pool selllig business.

You put in twenty aollars on the favorite, and every man that you see tells you that you have done a good thing. Pretty soon the favorite starts; the bell 18 rung and you feel a kin’ of pleasant.

He had got $4,400 together ag weil as he could, His parents were rich, and with the natural antipathy which rich parents have to seo their sons embarking in keno, faro, or betting on horse racing, they had advised my friend to keep away from pool sellers. ‘Still he would buy pools, I saw him foramoment on the quarter stretch in all his glory. He said to me in a tone of rabid exultation— “7m in a seventeen hundred dollar pool, Noman knows more thanIdo about the horses, Look at whatashow Ihave. Think of it, boy; I’ve got a sure thing.” in my short experience always been beaten. I did not err in this case, I really liked the young fellow who nad bcen so lavish in throwing his money away on the favorite, It was about an hour after the pools had closed on the race in which my friend had been partici. pating to the extent of his moderate stamps. There was another prize to be achieved, and I was just about going out of the gate on the quarter. stretch to look at the horses. They had iankets on them, and the judges ana the race stewards were leaning out of the little box and talking in an excited manner. Just then my friend came up, Iils necktle was awry and his shirt col- lar was very much depressed, He was kind enough to offer me a very bad cigar. I must say he offered the cigar in a friendly way, although he knew It was avery bad one, There was a circle of white paper around the cigar, on which an aMdavit had veen made that the cigar was of the ‘‘only genuine Henry Clay brand.” “I have been taken into camp, I’m skinned dead as a nail,” said tae to me, Isaid to him, ** hy do you go in those pools if you don’t like them ?'? He answ ered me in an excited manner, “ What is ® man golug to do when the fellows are talking borse? i'm out four hundred ana twenty dollars, and J’ve just given my diamond ring to Hank for seourity, It’s rough work and im & square . man. But I teil you my old man is going to be awful mad about this business. a contractor and made his money hard, aud he doesn’t give any of it out if he can help it, {til make lum so mad about that four hun- dred that ] don’t want to see hin for a week.” I left my friend in haste. The bell was ringing for nother race, and as I had not been buying any pools I felt the compassion for him that can only bo felt vy the philosophical people who do not venture their hard-earned doliars in pools, THE DRESSES OF THE LADIES were unusually splendid and varied yesterday, and the Club House, both within aud without, was a par- terre of beauty, Seated at a table, with a glass of “the sparkling tears of the vine’ in her hand, the bead on which ts rivalled by the dimples that laugh on her Nushed cheek, sits a tall, graceiul belle ina magnificent gauze de chambery robe of green and white, the ground be! white, dotted with green flowers, The lower skirt is formed of three narrow flounces, bound with green and edged with black jace, headed with a deep Roamaked, flounce, which ig trimmed with aheavy ruching of green silk.

Never nee the openjng race of the American Jockey Club did Jerome Park present such a brilliant and magnificent sight as tt did yesterday and during the four days of the meeting just past. The man- agement was excellent, Itis seldom that sach au immense crowd of people can be congregated at a race course without @ soiltary case of disturbance or unpleasantness to mar the Occasion. THE RACING. The closiug Gay at Jerome Park will be remem- bered more for the quantity than the quality of the sport, There were five races, a walk over and for- feit, The racing was not equal to that of any of the previous days, yet the spectators seemed to be pleased with the various events as they followed each other, and loudly applauded the winners after each contest, The first race was @ dash or a mile and 2 quarter, for three- year-olds, and eight started; the second race was for the Consolation Premium, and four started for it; the third was a three mile race, which had three starters; the fourth @ steeple chaso between three horses, and the Oth a match of two miles be- tween two fillies, There Was also a walk over for the steeple chase handicap, Oysterman, Jr., being the only horse that accepted the weights. He ran the distance and made alithe Jumps very prettily. ‘Tuere was @ match also on the card between Ch- max and Overland, with 150 Ibs. up on each; but wheu the time came for them to start the owner of Overiand patd forfeit, The starters in the mile and a quarter race, all three-year-olds, were General A.

Provipencr, R, I, June 17, 1871, The Spring Trotting Meeting at Narragansett Park dissolved to-day, in the presence of a pleasant but moderate sized assemblage. There were many ladies on liand to witness the closing scenes, as there will be at every attractive and moral public exbibl- tion; but the great throng, the immense array of Pro- vidence's beautiful women, were absent, and the sport of the occasion lost some of its zest from the fact. Well, this meeting is over, but the horsemen are in the milust of the season’s campaign, and from this charming track and these comfortable stables drivers, hurses and rubbing boys go to Beacon Park, which throws out its flags to the turf-loving world on Tuesday. Neither men nor horses will have much rest, and tie scenes that began with Fleetwood Park will be to them almost a daily repetition until the snow falls, und then man’s most useful animal may find that needed repose necessary for an ther year’s work, The day was lovely in the extreme, agentie breeze sweeping across grand stand and track, tempering to an exquisite and delicious de- gree the warm rays of the sua, The track was in excellent condition, TUE FIRST TRE This event was a purse for $500, for horses not over four years old; $300 to first, $15) to second and $50 to third.

Carpenter's chestnut gelding Toothpick and A, H, Rowe's black stallion Thomas Jefferson, Jr. From this lot Lothair was withirawn, Toothe pick was the favorite at long odds in the pools, the feeling valent that he must take away the first pri: ents, But there’s many A SLIP "EWIXT THE CUP AND THE LIP, and never nai te adage a more pertinent exempll- fication than In this race to-day, as after the first heat, woo by Toothpick, he was beaten handsomely by the statlion Jeiferson, ur. Following this were more ghashing of tecth and lamentations over poor luck, many New York and Boston boys vowing Provl- dence “would break anybody.” Seriously, the majority of tne heaviest bevters have suifered be- yond precedent at the meeting just closed, and are entitled ~ a litte sympathy, which 1s here teelingly extended, cg eWoey Furst Heat.—Thomas Jefferson, Ir., had the pole, ‘Toothpick second, and Kate Hayes outside, They gotthe word at the second trial, with Jefferson, Jr., Jeading haifa length, Toothpick second and Kate Hayes last, Rounding the first turn Kate indulged @l nseriesof antics that would give @ world-wide reputation to any circus horse in christendom, Vainly did her driver attempt to get her level, and not until the quarter pole was passed would she manifest the /east disposition totrot. At this point ‘Toothpick was leading the dance four lengths, in forty-five seconds, Jefferson, Jr., second, and Kate practically out of the race. Down the backstretch Toothpick put on more steam, and at the half-mile pole, in 1:29, was eight lengils in front, the others as before, Entering tié homesiretch Kate cut loose stronger than ever, but at the drawgate Roden, who drove her, pulled her m, and Toothpick joggedover te se five lengths in advance of Jetierson, Jr. Kate Hayes was distanced. Time, 3:00. Second Heal.--The send-off was exceedingly pretty, and they went around the turn head and head. At the quarter pok, in forty-seven seconds, there was not the dilicrence of @ throatlatch be- tween thein, and although the pace was not fast the spectacie evoked much enthusiasm. Along the oackstretch Toothpick fd on a spurt and drew half @ length away from Jefferson, Jr., and at the halt. mile pole, im 1:31, had increased the daylight to one length. He could not maintain his gait, however, and at the three-quarter pole Jefferson was on his wheel, and entering the homestretch they were head and head again, Now came the struggle, and the interest in the result was sensibly Increased, Nip and tuck they had it all the way down the stretch, and Jefferson, Jr., responding to the last call of his driver, passed under the string leading a neck, Time, 3:08 34. Third Heat.—Jeterson, Jr., rose in the estimation of the buyers, and was selling fur as much as Tooth- pick inthe pools. They gut the word toa good send-off, and rounding tie first turn Jefferson, Jr., was haif a length in the lead; but he lett his fect, and for an instant his opponent showed in front. He wassoon steadied, and at the quarter pole had taken command, in forty-seven seconds, with Toothpick on a break, Jeiferson, Jr., now arew away, aud, trotting cleverly, was two lengths in front at the haif-mue pole, in 1:31. From this po- sition he was never headed, and with one break on the homestretch and two very serious “flys” fer Toothpick near the drawgate, Jefferson, Jr., went under the wire three lengths m front, ‘Time, 3:00, Fourth Heat.—Jetterson, Jr, was new sete, in the pool at the rate of 130 to 12, The first trial they got the word toa beautiful send-off, Immediately after leaving the stand Jefferson, Jr., made a skip, aud Tootupick went in front, passing the quarter- ole six lengths In advance, in forty-five second: Down the backstretch Coae«nter put on the steam with the stallion, and wheb ; te half-mile pole was reached, in 1:27, Toothpick vas but three lengths tothe front. Theefforts on the part of Carpenter were not relinguished, and aiong the lower turn he kept up the pursuing game grandly, and at the three-quarter pole succeeded in gettny on even terms with Toothpick, which evoked considerable enthu- singsm among the spectators, On the homestretch the spectacle was quite pretty, as cach driver seem- ingly used his utmost to win, and they were head and head uatil the drawgate was reached, when Jeiierson, Jr., showed in tront and passed ander the string winner of the heat and race by halla jength, Time, 2:52. ‘fhe winner of this race is but three years old, by Thomas Jeilerson, as his name indicates, out of a common mare, He looks like bis sire, 1s fifteen hands and one inch in height, and ts marked with a star in the fueehead.
