At this season Orange county wears ita loveliest dress, aud visitors will find the stock farm a more pleasant place than it was in February last. Mr. Irving, of Sixty-third street, between Lex- ington and Fourth avenues, has imported twenty Indian ponies from Central America, to supply the demand for ladies’ saddic horses. The ponies are the most beautiful that have been offered in this market for many years, resembling the Narragan- sf} sett pony that was so fushionable among the ladies in the olden times, We have before us a view of the new driving park now in course of construction on the Coney Island road. Mr. Joseph Hall has secured twenty gores of land, situated at the corner of the Gohéy Tsland road and the Old Shell road, and is now build- ing & half-mile track, hotel, stables, sheds, &c, The track is intended fo be private and for the use of| members only, while the house will be kept asa first class road house, and from which a view of the grounds can be enjoyed by all visitors, The track ts laid out in the pear aad and will be sixty feet wide all round, 80 ae*to afford ample room for driving. The grotind ts naturally almost a perfect level, and yhe soil is admirably suited for the pur- pose, wife tho location, being just about a mile beyapd'the Park, 1s the right distance for riders the year through. The want of such a place for a daily resort has long been felt by the Brooklyn riders, and the enterprise, with proper management and from the support it’had already recetved, bids well for success. It is expected to be in running order early in June. AN ALLEGED FORGER ARRESTED. On Saturday afternoon a young man, giving his name as Clifford B.

Se The Chester Cup Winner Objected To. Postponement of the Settlement—Decision of the Jockey Clab—Racing of the Week—Cap- tain Machell Going to America. LONDON, May 18, 1872, Since the memorable objection raised by Sir Joseph Hawley to Pretender, the winner of the Derby, receiving the stakes, on the ground that hig nominator was dead, no event has go excited turf world here as the objection laid last weeky against Inveresk, winner of the Chester Though this race on this occusion was, when come pared with its traditions, almost a failure, the Stake was so valuable and the betting had been sq large that the interests involved were very heavy, Inveresk, the winner, a thres-year-old horse, is the Property of Mr, Wiiliam Nicholls, a professional bete ting man, whose business 1s conducted on a very extensive scale, and who is indeed one of the “Teviathans of the turf,” as they love to be called, He has of late years owned a few horses; but that isa department of racing whichis merely subsidiary who made the oi “bookmaker,” but for a good many years has forsaken that walk in life and ber come a great owner of horses, princte pally steeple-chasers. It will be remembered that a few months ago he obtained, the highest object of his ambition by winntit the Grand National Steeple Chase at Liverpool with his mare Casse-Téte, but he has generally been very unlucky,’ though in his time he has had many celebrated ant- mals. Keeping race horses and backing them, as a rule, tend to puta man on the straight road to the Bankruptcy Court and the workhouse, unless he has very sound judgment and a fair share of luck. Mr. Brayley has pienty of the former, but he has not had much of the latter, and, of course, even with his Casse-Tete winrings, he has had enough todo to make both ends moet. It was, therefore, a bitter disappointment to him when, after his horse Soucar came down the straight run for home at Chester, appearing to have the race so much at hia ction, Hooker; J. S. Baker, pg tackle In the Meta, Commodore Beling’s new sloop, mercy that long odds were offered on Lim, he should have been beaten by Inveresk, wio, coming out atthe distance, headed hit without much difficulty, Under these clroum- stances one can make excuse for Mr. Brayley ifha should have left no stone unturned to secure the race, and the stone which he t.fed to turn on this occasion was the RAISING OF AN OBTECTION to Inveresk, on the ground that he had not beer 4 aay described in the entry, His deseription —Inver: sk, b. ¢., by Lambton, dam outor Polly, by Ratan.” It ow! one in some respects, ‘or, in the first place, there ig reat doubt as to t jam of Polly herself, and in he second there is a diMenlty about her daughter, the dam of Inveresk. The iniormation given in the “Stud Book” is by no means complete, and mucl depended on the evidence to be supplted by thos who have been associated with Polly and her pro That mare herself appears to have had eer; for she was for a lol period employed in phaeton and cart work, an A was subsequently put to the stud at Richmond, im Yorkshire, where she now is. It is believed that she is by the celebrated sire Maley Moloch, out of a daughter of Kmilins, but the evidence on that point is by no means complete. “Calendar” of 1862 one of her sons, Melandra, Is described as “D; Neville, out of Polly, by Ratan, pedigree unknown.’? ‘With regard to the dam of Inveresk, though there was, so far as the “Stud Book” went, considerable donbt about her, there could be little difficulty in tracing her history from those who had had to do with her breeding. The result of the laying of the, objection was the almost COMPLETE STOPPAGE OF THE SETTLING, F aso far as Inveresk and Soucar were concernedy & though bookmakers, with thelr usual astuteness, A received all the money that had been lost over other animals in the race, but declined to pay over these onlty was settled. Many of the “gmaller men,” however, in accordance with a rule’ they have at tho minor betting clubs, settled as usual on Monday last as if there had been no ob- not a few of them would have been ruined. Odds ij of three to one were, however, laid on the objection being overraied, and Admiral Rous himself openly declared that ti was friv It was referred by: the Stewards of the Chester meeting to the Stewards Hof the Jockey Club, Admiral Rons, Lord Calthorpe and Lord Fuliouth, who hoard the case in London esterday. After hearing the evidence of three reeders who had been connected with Polly, with the dam of Inveresk and with Inveresk himself, 4 they unanimously ne a > VERRULED THE OBJECTION and declared it invalid.

O'Leary, of Worcester, Mass., to row @ sculler'’s race of three miles, for $500 a side, over the regular course on Lake Quinsigamond, Wednesday, August 28, The match was originally arranged last season, but O'Leary having met with an accident during his training for the event it was indefinitely postponed. The latter is a formidabie-looking individual in comparison with Ward, and report says that he has made wonderful time in his trials of, two and three miles. All boating men know Ellis and of his abilities as an oarsman, and no one will be- lieve but that in the coming contest he will fully sustain his well-earned reputation. Tho race, de- BM ated the many aquatic attractions on foot, will, no loudt, create much excitement.

De- aq ceased had been at the hotel about a month, during which time he scemed to be in good spirits and ap- peared to have plenty of money. THe left an ox- planatory letter, the following of which {sa copy. twas addressed “To the Proprietor of the New England Hotel:’ Dear Str—On account of an incurable ear disoase, making me unable In exercising my busivess stocess: fully, Lrdsotved to put an end to my My pe nottted mi nike t yay the & . poe Kephook jot Wit tind about 81k.

It was on! ‘evived year or two ago and is always a very dul affair; the sport, which is tame, being witnessed by. only a handful of people, Its principal feature om w this occasion was its two-year-old racing, which was on the whole interesting, Sugg It is doabtfal’ whether we have yet seen any youngster who will be able to hold his own @ month or two hence. The best of them, perhaps, is Glowworm, a bay colt hy Young Melbourne out of Twilight, belonging to Mr. 'T, E. Walker, who won two valum able stakes—th Newmarket Two-year-old Plate and @ sweepstakes over the T. Y. C—in capital style. Next to him, perhaps, the best we saw was Mr. Somerville’s colt, Oxford Mixture, by Oxford, out of Irish Belle, and Lord Aylesford’s flily Blue Light, by Rataplan, out of Borealis, A ver tatorestin race was that in whieh Baron Rothschlid’s “fying? mare Chopette, who last year was almost invincible over six furlong courses, was beaten by that fhe huk- ing brute Ravenshoe, for whom M. Lefevre gave & large sum of money, and who was made a favorite for the Derby, the St. Leger and other tmportant races, but never won 4 shilling in his life till he met poor Chopette. This was, however, over a mile and half of ground, at which she was completely out of her distance, though, from the style in which sh ran for a mile and a quarter, it is clear that she is a far better stayer than had been supposed, , The most startling racing gossip we have heard during the week is that which relates to the certaim RETIREMENT OF CAPTAIN MACHELL, or Captain Maciifel!, as his enemies call him, from the English turf, and his probable departure for America. He has long been the right hand man of the party for which Bloss trats, and which con- sists of Lord Calthorpe, Mr. Chaplin, Sir G Chetwynd, Mr. T. Waiker and Ba ptain Machol The last has more brains than all the others P together, and is undoubtedly one of the most astute men on the turf, The reason for his retire- ment Ido not know, but probably he has been too clever for his colleagues, and his temper and lan- guage are none of the best. It is said he intends! The chief race fj to establish a racing stable in America, but with what truth Lam not aware, his own. The Yankees, we know, are ‘ente, but the best of them will not get much’ the Bee bd of Captain Machell. It may also be voted that he 1s skilfal in the use of his fists, with which he is very ready, ‘A CARD FROM HEALTH OFFIOER VANDER- POEL, Tf he does he will hold HGALTH OFFICER'S DEPARTMENT, QUARANTINE, STATEN ISLAND, June 2, 1872, To THe Epitor or THe HERALD:— The following paragraph appears in the World of to-day :— The French gunboat La Terreur (how singularly appropriate the name), which came here with the A Adiniral, and another gunboat, last week, from the: West Indies, has been sent to sea again, with orders to keep the open ocean, having on Sourd, out of some two hundred and twenty men, forty cases of unquestionable cholera. The only other facts op- tainable in this connection are that the disease had recently arrived in Havana, and was in a novel form and complicated with yellow fever, There is not the slightest foundation of truth in the above. No vessel of that name, either in the nayal or merchont service of France, is now or has been in this port. No vessel with cholera on board has entered the harbor this spring, nor has a case of cholera occurred after so entering. 80, too, is 16 mistaken with reference to the alleged sending vessel to sea with cholera or any other quaranth Able disease on board, The State has made Itber Provision for the case of such diseases, and instead of dooming them to almost cerfain death by sending them to sea, would remove them aa Speedily as possible to one of its hospitala and take thorough measures to cleanse tie vessel.
