Mr. Belmont notified the ow of Longiellow to: bight that he wished fo bet $ ) that his horse larity Abd promptness nt of those mm wttend- " @ash, the race to come off during the Angust mect- ‘ng at tus place, Mr. Selmont also staled that if Nig Wel is note by the Longfellow parnes he WH pot start King“suer in that race, as the horse | has other engagements that Will pay oetier, | ee All tne time since Friday last, when Longfellow and | Kingfisher sent such thrills of enthusiatm through | thousauds of spectators, but Ittle else had been talked of up to last evening but thetr anticipated coming vogether again on Tuesday. It was the song of the ladies, the talk of the etting men, (he refrain of the countrymen and the hope of the “cullered gemmen.” While Longfel- Jow’s performance was referred to with pleasurabie pride, the friends of Kingfisher, knowing tat he capable of doing wonders, backed their favorite and really entertained the idea that in the WEAR AND TEAT OF THREE MILE he conld beat tae champion from Keatne Thus all day Saturday and yesterday the bright | streets. and =o brighter hotels of Saratoga, with = ite mediey of ladies, gentiemen, New York betting men, gamblers, politicians and | rowdics, enthusiastic half.grown lads and the irre- | pressible darky, have listenet to but little else | than the Longfellow-Kingfisher business, One sub- Ject alone swayed and triumphel over the minds | of men, women and children—fashionable and } Jowiy--that tremendous theme being equine, and Longfeliow and Kingfisher their names. boot- Dlacks talked 11 over at sireet corners, while putting on a polish; the little girls and bigwer | women WORE THE COLORS of Harper and Belmont, and many of the former ‘Went 40 bed with them to testify their admirauon of ‘the great horse. Peaceful oid gents up here for the good that isin the water, dreamed of Longfeliow aud Kingfisier. Gourmancs washed down free Junehes with Longfellow cobbiers and Kingdsher punches, and once or twiee the all pervading frenzy of horse came dencediy near breaking up families into fractions, one squad going with wild veliemence for the one, the remaining fraction talking themselves to death for the other. It weemed that any one who could enlighten a crowd | on this aubject might at will take a barroom by | storm aud convert it INTO A LUNATIC ASYLIM forthe time, Betting men, those of the New York Mk particulariy, who as a general thing are pro- | verbial for coolness and their Jove for the almighty greenbacks, for once forgot their ravligs, and talked ef the excitement the contest would surely produce, and in the horse hurly buriy the rampant rowdyism of last week in the metropolis was entirely ouvlit- erated from memory. Well, after all this confusion, al} this anticipation, M seems that the struggle for the victory of three miles between these annals won’t come off as set down, and a generat feeling of d sgust is the conse- qvence. Therefore, I ray, the HORSE OWNER 18 “UNSARTIN.”* The tact of Mr. Harper's deciaration that Long- Jeliow would not start to-morrow 1 have already ad. | E vised you. The announcement was made last night, Just at ihat hour when the villagers, with psaim books in hand, were wending their way qaietly to church abd jecture rooms, and it fell like ® wet dish cloth alike upon friend and foe of Kentucky’s favorite. 1. appears that the owner of Kingiisher, through General Buford, despatched ® messenger to the stable with orders to bet Mr. Barper $5,000 that KINGFISHER WOULD BEAT Bis favorite if they started on Tuesday; but the old map would not lave it, and returned the answer that “Longfellow would not show again in Saratoga Bnis! August, in the four mile race." With tui dis- heartening information ‘he messenger hurried back to the village, Where General Buford and a host of tarfmen were awaiting him. [| teil you it maae everybody disgusted, aud GENERAL BUFORD UNBURDENED | his mind freely. You all Know this gallant son of } Kentucky.

Why, here’s a iittie fellow only cost $15,000, and he's afraid to run against him; he can’t go back to Ken- weky claiming the championship. claim it for Enquirer; he's the only champion I kuow of that never took water.’ Here the General laughed one of his quict laughs that fairly iroth and | bubble all over his colossal irame, when the inter- ested throng separated, disgust | repeat, supplant- ing the feeling of imterest that but a short time be- fore had becu manifested, To sum up the whole controversy in a nutshell, however, and give the facts in the case is quite easy. if Mr. Harper does not start Longieilow to-morrow it 18 his intention to keep him for the four-mile race of August, to key hin up for that event alone and Mon beat the famous time of Lexington that dis- tance, showing the world that indeed he has THE FASTEST HORSE AMFRICA ever produced. That will be victory enough, and the old gentleman can afford to watt and jaugh at Dis opponents until then. You meet with many strange residents in Sara- toga. This morning, when Broadway was alive wiih excitement and each individual hackman out of filty or more that stood in positions calculated to catch the throng wending their way to the races ‘were crying at the top of their voices, “Here's the races, riglt away; come along; cheap riding!” —there came from a netghboring botel where pk are made up Of ministers seeking heaith | ereabouts, the grand old notes of sacred music, and it seemed to fil the street a@ while the clamor of the Jenhus. speculation, And perhaps dissipation, stop for a mo- ment to hear the ringing pe and grand accompa- Diment of some master, and when the words “Glory, glory to God on High” struck the ear with i(s sweetness and religions jer- vor | thought some of them walked away ina medi- tative moud. episode, but I mention it 4s an incident of tne morn. | ing.

' In ihe first race we had four starters, comprising Colonel Mevaniei's bay horse Oysterman, Jr., by Oysterman, dam by Phil Brown, aged, with 146 lbs, | up; the same gentieman’s bay colt Heimont, by Lex- | jugion, dam Alhambra, four years old, carrying 136 los.; Joseph Dovalue’s chestnut colt Tammany, by Lexington, dam Liz, Mardis, four years old, with i33 Ids. up, @nd the same gentieman’s chestaut horse Sanford, by Uncle Vic, dam Doily Carter, aged, carrying 146 lbs, Oystermun was a great favorite over the field and no won the race Neither of the others got places, a8 Sanford threw his rider over his head at the second hurdle, and when Bel- mont came to the same place he refused to jump at al, and stopped there until the race was over. ‘Tnis horse has a temper which will be found daim- cult to subdue, aud there wiil seldom be found backers for him either on the flat or over the umber in future, The second race had at the post as starters Colonel MeDaniel’s chestnut colt Jo Daniels, by Australten, dam Dolly Carter; Messrs. Moran & Kelly's bay filly Mothe McIntyre, by Star Davia, dam Zara, by York- ; Shire; Faward Thompson’s bay filly, by Lightning, | dam Leland’s dam, and R. W. Cameron's bay geld- | ing Manitoba. Jo Daniels was @ great favorite, selling 11 the pools for more than ull the others to- gether, and he won tne race in capital style after a iserable siart, ‘This, however. was not the fant of the genteman who dropped the fag, but of the celt himself.

Mary Clark was a prea favorite tu the pool sales, and the result { roved that her backers were correct in their calcu- ; lations of her racing powers, as sue beat ail the uth- | ers very casily, in most excellent time with the {| wetght she had to carry. Express was second, doing much better on this occasion than he did at Mon- mouth Park, where he was a at favorite, John Merryman Was third, much to the surprise of ali the | betters; while Nellie Ransom, who beat Express so badiy at Long Branch, came in last.

The annual festival of the New York Shnetzen Corps commenced yesterday. The weather and ali other uncertainues were most favorabie and Jones’ Wood put on its most seductive smile. The Corps, led by its good-humorea and enthusiastic commander, Captain John F. Gerdes, supported | by its Secretary, B. H. Linken, and its Treasurer, | Henry Lamceken, nambered 200 men, and the | entire body presen*ed & most creditable appear- ance. It was reinforced during the day by Captain I, Blnmenbach, with sixteen other members of the Baltimore Shuetzen Corps; Captain Kohimeier and twenty men of the Brooklyn, E. D., Shuctzen Corps; Captain Roscnen and twenty-four men of the corps from Jersey City and Hoboken, and the Hartford, Conn., corps was represented | by a delegation of fifteen of its members. In addition to the Shuetzen gentlemen in uniform, the sports and pastimes of the day were enjoyed by a large number of other respectable Ger- man citizens, and the ladies from Vaterlaud mu tered in full force, makiug a brilliant show and taking Part in all the amusements that enliveved tne hour end the place. These consisted ta shooting at the Austrian double-headed eagle, target practice on @ smaller scale, dancing. drinking light wines and lager, and an irresistibly funuy Ger- man adapiation of Punch and Judy, at which the most stoiid-looking beer urinkers “iaughed consumedily,” and even the irish policeman covered himself ali over with a broad grin of Geligbt, though he did not comprehend a word of the aialogue, Which shows, by the way, that live rs might sometimes: derive as protitable lessons from well-couaucted automatons as from Hamlet’s inetructions. An interesting part of the proceedings in the after- noon was the ustrinution of a large number of prizes to the ladies who dis- tinguished themselves at the shooting matches, The prizes covsisted o1 handsome satchels, opera glasses and small articles of viriu and dijous ‘erie. The ladies who received the first prizes wel Mrs, Meyer, Mra. Stabli, Mrs. Rubel, Mra, Shrieder, Mrs. Hinkslager, Miss Holman, Miss Sauer, Miss Myers, Miss Ary, Mrs. Woodhuff, Mrs. Plager and Mrs. Stepnan. The prizes for gentlemen Will consist of a gold medal costing $125, and a gold watch and chain worth $50, for the King of the Corps, and for the other members who distin- gush themselves there are two gold watches ‘Worth $90 each, a 1arge assortment of valuaole arti- cles of parlor, bedroom, kitchen and oftice furniture, sets of silver, &c. These will be distributed to the deserving sharpshooters at ihe close of the festival to-morrow evening, At seven o'clock Captain Gerdes led bis guests imto the hotel, where some bottles of wine were opened and several speeches, toasts and expressions of mutual esteem and good fellowship were induigei in all round. A magnifi- cent gold Maltese cross, in the centre of which was an oval medal, with the figure of the Watcher on the Rhine, and on the reverse a sultabie inscription, was presented to Captain Gerdes, as @ tribute of regard from the Shuetzen Corps of Balti- more. A detachment of the Nineteenth pre- cinct police, under Captain Gunner, wee on the ground. Tue latter was presented by Captain Gerdes to the strangers as the popular pro- tector of the corps, but the latter very truly replied that the corps needed no protection at his hands, as they were ablo to protect themselves, aed never neede’ the presence oi other peace preserver:, The festival will continue through to-day and to-morrow and will close to-morrow evening. THE BUCKHOUT SLAUGHTER. | Rebutiing Testimony for the Prosecution— How the Prisoner Sustains Himself—Over- whelming Evidenco as to His Sanity. The trial of Buckhout was continued in the Court county, yesterday, Owing tothe saiubrious nature of the atmosphere tue court room was more | crowded than it has been on any previous day since | the trial commenced. A large proportion of those noe were of the softer sex, and the constant atter of a huidred delicate fans lent additional life, ag weil as atr, to the otherwise monotonous and thrice reiterated proceedings. The prisoner ap- pears to be a shade paler and somewhat more pen- sive than na: en his wont during either of the former trials; and although he still smilies anre- | servedly when any incident of @ humorous nature occurs, It appears to be A FORCED ATTEMPT AT GAYPTY, whicn is altogether futile in dispelling the gloomy expression of auxiety which may occasionally be detected, During the continuation of rebutting testimony offered by tae prosecution a humber of witnesses were examined, all oi whom had known the accused for periods varying from five to twenty years, and each one testified that in his conversation, actions and appearance we prisoner was always entirely rational. It was also oifered in evidence, and cor- roborated, that ‘Khout after committing the fear- ful crime of Killing, as he supposed, three persons, h ed To the house of a neighbor aud exclaimed, “Take me to jail or hang me, | VVE GOT TO BR BUNG, i and you might as well hang me as any one else,” | prisoner eatd that if he couid have matters the same as they were before the Ist of January, 1870, he would be willing to lay down his life. It is probable that the case ior the people will be closed to-day, and in that case the defence will pre- feut their argumeni to the jury. ALLEGED HIGHWAY ROBBERY, } John Lenehan was ye terday committed for trial at the Yorkville Police Court on a charge of highway robbery. On Sunday evening, while Loma Knapp, of 844 Raat Fifty-sixth street, was standing at the corner of Fifty-sixth street and First avenue, Lenenan and two others approached him and de- Manded of him his money. On his retusing the two comrades of Lenehan attacked him and took $4 from him, besides treating him rather rougiy. When they got through they walked of, accompanied by Lenehan. WILLIAMSBURG CASUALTIES, Miss Matilda Nelson, while carelessly stepping from a Houston street ferry boat to the bridge, in Williams- burg, last evening, had her right foot terribly crushed between the boat and bridge.

I hope that every American citizen, whether he be @ native ex adopted, will cut out the said card and have 1¢ about his person, so that whenever they have the | tudacity to call on the people of this country to assist them in thetr discontent, to show them their own card. I hope that all true American journals will give publicity to the said card, 80 that we all will Know What Kiad of people those Fenians are. 1 8a% their declaration is a more outrageous insult to the ligh executive officer of this State than anything that has taken piace for a long time. Is It sale to this republic to allow such men to be under a mili- tary organizanion’ { think not, and the sooner that itis Re ‘a stop to the betier it will be for us.

To THE KpITOR OF THE HERALD:— Your paper 1s so full of senseless chatter about the Orangemen being aliens and having no right to pa+ rade that I think it about time to put a stop to tt. If the Irishmen think it is not lawful for them to er rade why not stop it by law instead of by riot? 1 the Orangemen are aliens what are the Fenians? ‘The Fenians have no right to become citizens of the United States, because when Ireland should become’ free they would owe allegiance to Ireland, such being their oath; and not being lawful citizens what right! have they to resolutions blaming the Governor. &c.? TO putastop to any more such disgraceful’ proceedings a law should be passed proniviting all javades except such as are purely American or re« figioua. Such parades as the Orangemen and the Fenians, who are dressed in the uniform of a foreign country and march under the flag of the same— namely, Ireiand—should not be allowed. EXCELLENTIA, H. 8. N.Y.
