The third aurdle was near the bend into the lower turn, and when Astronomer made that jump he was three ‘éngths in advance of Jackson. The horses ran pretty sharply around the turn and up the home- @reteh to the fourth hurdle, Astronomer suill show- ing the way, three lengths ahead, As they passed She stand Astronomer was five lengths in front, and he jamped the flith hurdle about three tengths in advance.

Seven or eight hundred persons assembled at this favorite course yesterday afternoon, to witness the first day’s amusement of the extra autumn meeting, which is to continue to-morrow, Friday and Satur- day. Tne event which called them together was a purse of $1,000 fer horses that had never trotted better than 2:29, divided so that the winner should receive $500, the second horse $300 and the tmra $200. ihe specdlation over tne contest was quite spirited, owing to the several rumors that thisor the other animat was in the finest possible condition and would make @ capital struggle, Entered for the trot were Dan Piifer’s gray gelding Lottery, G. P. Carpenter’s bay mare Lady Ross, Alexander Patter- s0n’s chestnut gelding Dreadnaught, M. Roden’s brown gelding James H. Coleman, George T. Free- man’s black mare Lady Wheeler and C, Predman’s black gelding Denmark, . The latter was withdrawn, in the pool sales Lottery was a great favorite, selling at the rate of $155 to $70 against the field. The horses were prompily called at tne hour named, and the sport conducted. In a manner that greatly pleased the spectators, First Heat.—Lady Ross was on the inside, then Coleman, Dreadnaught, Lottery and Wheeler, There were eight ineffectual attempts before the horses received the word. At last they were sent off, with Coleman in the lead, the others in Indian file, ‘They went to the quatter in bene Sh seconds, with Lady Ross im the advan tery second, he having done excellent work from the send off, Coleman third, Dreadnaught fourth and Lady W heeler in the rear, the latter three dancing in the air like Cheyennes on the warpath. ‘The order Was about the saine at the half mile in 1:1434, witn the exception that Lady Ross led two lengths and Lottery was eight lengths in front of Coleman. Lot lery put on a spurt as they went along to the three- quarter pole and entering the stretch was on the wheel of the leader, and Piifer, finding her easy to beat, set sail in earnest at the Sra reat 2nd, sendli wo a break, passed wi the wire winner of the heat by two lengths. Lady Ross was secona, Coleman third, Dreadnaught fourth and Lady Wheeler fifth. Time, 2:3134. Second Heat.—Lottery was now the favorite, 100 to 20. The start was good. Coleman was first away, but as they went around the turn to the quarter Lady Ross had taken first place, with Lottery sec- ond, and Coleman, Dreadnaught and Wheeler as named, They passed the quarter in thirty-eigut seconds, and Lottery, ee the pace hot for Ross, went to the front, and at the half mil 1:15, had half a length the best of it Dreadnaught was third, Coleman fourth and Lady Wheeler last. As they went along to te three-quarter pole Lottery opencd the gap totwo 8, with Lady Ross, Lady Wheeler and Coleman dancing io the air. They could not get near the gray gelding, and he came home an easy winner of the heat by three lengths, Ross sec- ond, Dreadnaught third, Coleman fourth and Lady Wheeler fizth, 16, 2:82:44, Third Heat.—There were no pools sold.

A orace of HERALD reporters called upon the distinguished gentlemen in the afternoon and talked with them on the present aspect of Indian affairs, Mr. Vincent Collyer, who meek young man and fanatically reticent, told what he knew about Indian farming, and Mr. John D.

Frisnp Lanc—Yes, we will have it ready to | night. It will show that President Grant’s policy in dealing witn the Indians pas been quite success- | fal. There is no occasion whatever for levying WAR ON THE RED MEN, Of course there are a great many people interested in getting up a war—the Indian Ring, for example. tis the business of the contractors to foment dis- turbances, It has been our business to prevent them from indulging in these wickednéssea, Thee must know that the policy of the border people is shoot, shoot, all the time. ‘They think no more of killing aa Indian tnan a dog or a deer. Now we be- eve that it is better to conciliate the Indians than to murder them, Rerorrex—But a number of people in Arizona believe with General Crook that the only way to con- ciate our mutual friend Lo 1s to kill him, FRIBND Lana—No doubt. 1t always was the pole icy of the army hangers-on to make perpetual war on the trines. They are trying the same game now, but they won't succeed. REPORTER—But the Indians are said to be given | to throat-cutting, scalping and making burnt offer- imgs to the Great Spirit of luckless wiutes? FrrgND LanG—The Indian 1s merciless when wronged. Most people are savage when outraged; but Lam certain THE INDIANS PREFER PEACB to war atall times. Of course there are some in the mountaina very hard to control, their cilefs hav- Ing but little influence over them, but even these can be reciaimed, REPORTER—Then instead of ranning them down with cavairy, you would awe them into submission with Quaker guns?

[travelled 20,000 miles with them last year and 15,000 this ycar, and [am que satisfied that Lo, as thou named him, likes ghuing as little as most men. He demands the right to live, and thou will aamit, 1 think, that that is but reasonable. The Indians, ay a whole, are a sorry set; ill clothed and ill ted. What they want Is | fooa and shelter and proteccion against lawless whites. REPORTER—Then, Mr. Lang, you think that the Indian difficulty may be summed up in asentence? FRIEND LANG—Thee intended to say. that—— RervorTex—Beilies aud vlankets summed up the entire matter. FRiEND LasG—Thee comprehends the situation. People who are properly fed and clothed don’t care totight much; but starving wretches have some- NO OTHER RESOURCE THAN MARAUDING, It will cost several millions of dollars every year to fight the Indians.

REND Lanc—It would be rash to assert that the Indian nature can be changed at once; but thee is aware that time and patience will work wonders. Consider the case of the Cherokees. ‘Thee is doubt less aware that after our revolutionary war tne Cherokees were placed in North Carolina on a res- ervation.

ALL SAINTS’ DAY. ‘This ts All Saints’ Day, a festival during which the saintsin general, and especially those for whose veneration no particular day has been set apart, are honored.

Pope Boniface IV., having consecrated the temple to the service of God under the protection of the Virgin and tie Martyrs, proclaimed ‘because we cannot ticularly commemorate ev one of those saints in whom God's graces have Mn eminent, for that would be too heavy a burden, and because, in those Particular feasts which we do celebrate, we may Justly be thought to, have omitted some oi our duty through infirmity or neghgence; therefore the holy Church appoints this day in commemoration of the saints in general.” Its celebration was at first upon the lst of May, but was altered to the present dato, fn this country the celebration is no more than the performance of a high mass; but in Southern Lurope | and South America the day 16 kept as a public holt | day. par. A SHOCKING ACOIDENT, A Ulrcus Chariot Toppled Over a Precipice Two Men Killed. POUGHKERPSI8, Oct, 31, 1871. A terrible accident occurred in Columbia county yesterday morning, between Bain’s Corners and Copake, by which two men lost their lives, The ac- cident occurred on what is known as “Withams’ Hull,” @ steep deciivity, Just before daylight the band wagon, or chariot, attached to Howe’s Euro- pean Circus left Bain’s Corners for Millerton, drawn by eight horses, which were driven by an expe- nenced driver, but who cid not know the road, The morning being dark he came upon the hill before he was aware of the fact. He attempted to gather up bis reins and put on his brake, but he was quick enough. His eight-in-nand got the start of him and dashed down the hill at frightful speed, when suddenly one of the wheel horses fell, He, with the chariot, was dragged to ‘the side of the road by his now frantic mates, where the chariot upset and vwambied down & precipice.
