At three o’clock yesterday afternoon one of the greatest events of the year—to school children— occurred. It was the breaking up of the public Schools of the city, an occasion on which school girls and school boys’ minds and hearts are filled With thoughts and feelings which are easier fmag- ined than described, and which none but those who have, at some period of their lives, been released from the thraldom of books can realize, The chil- dren’s imaginations teem with vividly painted pic- tures of the sylvan or sea-side retreat where they have spent previous vacations. And yet all this Eeyety of feeling is checked by the conviction that they are leaving those who have during the last scholastic gels them, step by step, from out the dark nig it of ignorance into the sunshine of intellectual day. But they will soon forget these little griets, which must naturall. way to the superabundance of excitemen! novel pleasure. And the teacher—what must her feelings be after parting with the youngsters with whom she has spent the best part of her time for the past nine months? Too sorrowful to relate. Yet her sorrow is more than counterbalanced when she considers that for nine weeks she is relieved from the po- | etic (?) occupation of teaching the young idea how to shoot. ose words of Thomson are sufficient to prove to any one of common sense that le never taught public school. The vacation which commences to-day will last for nine weeks, studies to be resumed on Monday, September 2, 1872. One hundred and seven schools under the Department of Public Instruction closed to-day, of which fifty-nine were grammar schools, forty-two primary schools and six colored schools. Judging from the reports of the department made in reference to the several schools a short while since, both the teachers and scholars are in need of some relaxation, a8 more progress has been made this year than $y, other since the department was ore: May both tutors and students enjoy their “free days” and be benefited by the same, so that when they return to their several intellectual gym- nasiums in September next, the former may be more capable of impressing, and the latter more tmpressible! . oe PRD we - SAD CASES OF DROWNING, ffopson, N.

Yesterday morning early, long before daylight, and about the hour when the laggards of ‘tuesday Were only returning to New York from the big race, the wind shifted at Long Branch, and in place of the melting land breeze it blew deliciously from the ocean, giving comfort to man and beast alike and making Monmouth Park track pleasanter than any of the other days of the meeting. The sun shone brightly and umbrellas were necessary, but there ‘was not the profuse perspiration, the wilted colta: and uncomfortable feeling the heated term pro- duced. The visitors to the sea aside, in consequence, were up earlier than usual and before the sun had tipped the flagstaffs on the various hotels ladies were promenading the piazzas, and in more than one group the fair lasses were discussing the all-absorbing topic of horse racing, praising the wonders of old Kentucky in this line, and dwelling on the pleasures tocome. This en- thusiasm saved the mecting yesterday, for New York’s delegation in the main had been ter- ribly beat in their speculations of Tuesday on Bassett, some of them being so - light of pocket they could have easily floated home from Sandy Hook. It takes a day orso for the betting fraternity to overcome such a Waterloo demoralization, and because of this little mishap but few metropolitans went to the Branch, and it depended upon the visitors to make a show, which they nobly did. Carriage after carriage left the principal hotels immediately after bathing hours, and when the sport commenced the streets pre- sented quite an animated spectacle. The ladies were richly dressed and the misses full of joy an- ticipating the pleasures of the day. There was a feeling of excitement and anxiety generally, 'tia true, in the various contests of the day, but it greatly lacked the earnestness—the in- clination to yell continually—of Tuesday. There was none of the pushing, swearing and ill-humor of that day. Youcould get a drink of water without paying for it, and a pickled pig's foot by giving the price. Around the counter in lunch and _ bar rooms the. customers didn’t stand ten or twelve deep to the number of five hundred, and no countrymen asked you fifty impertinent questions In @ moment, The men who retail liquors and the dispensers of clam chowder knew exactly what bad Se took in, and there was no chance, as one was over says to’ say, “for a chap to squeal ne! yr, upon his ig! A for each knew what puff the other sold.” In short, there was room to turn and time to think. Many of the earlier arrivals wanted to see Long- fellow again. They would not be content with the eat exhibition of Tuesday, and so went over to nis stable in the apple orchard, and there “litte Frank,” as Uncle John calls his nephew, exhibited the king of runners, for which they were duly thankful. “Well, sir, he’s a Lavok f good horse,” said one, “Well, yes, pretty good,’ sententiously returned Frank, and the show was over. The steeple chase, gentlemen riders, was fot pro- ductive of much itement, as but one of the con- testants, Duffy, Went over the course. Of the two others, Astronomer’s rider fell off twice, and Jim Tisdgle Rolted several times. <A cheer or two reeted the victor, but they were feeble, and doubt- jess given by two or three fortunate betting men, A walk around the Grand Stand, and in the saloon after the exhibition, enabled one to get a good idea of the opinion of disinterested . parties upon such races. One sucessful cross-country rider said, with flushed face— Why, he ain’t “Sweet rider on Astronomer! worth salt!” “An elegant race—very exciting,” added a dis- tinguished turfman, sarcastically. “Iv atop and should stop such affairs. Their honesty is often questioned,” quoth a third, One young gentleman who had been betting on Astronomer waxed very wroth at the exhibition of the rider. He stgod at the gate, near the judges’ stand, where Tom Haley with nis big umbrella guards, as a gentleman should, the quarter stretch, and s¢ soon as permitted beyond he opened his valve of indignation in this wise:— “Pretty fellow, that gentleman rider. Why, he just fell off that horse in the field, and I had $50 on im, and am taken into camp. Nice North Amert- can rider, that fellow—he is,” ‘The punch bowl, valued at $500, to be awarded the successful rider in the steeple chase, was ex- hibited on the lawn, directly in front of the ladies’ portion of the Grand Stand, and !t commanded the admiration its exquisite execution and delicate ornamentation deserves, Uncle John Harper came slouching on the track is before the steeple chase, and in a minute was in earnest conversation with three or four old Ken- tucky friends. He smiled quite pleasingly, and to the congratulations showered upon him: only an- swered in his peculiar way, “Thank you!” Hardiy had the happy man of Kentucky passed from the lawn when his old antagonist, Colonel McDan- tel, .walked by the stand. His step seemed just -as elastic as ever, but his indi- cated disappointment. He was to by several upon indifferent subjects, but there was a lack of cordiality in their salutations which was painful. Again they appeared on the lawn, be- tween the second and third events of the day— Uncle John with a crowd of Kentuckians around him, whom he could only get rid of by going on the stand among the ladies, and Colonel McDaniel with his jockey, Roe, to whom he gave some in- structions and then quietly departed. Many wise people thought, as Longfellow had been such a victor yesterday, all the horses in Uncle John’s stable must be winners, so they went into the pool box on Platina and came out sick, deciar- ing They “wouldn't bet again—not a cent; all their Fourth of July money was gone.”’ Some of the old vim and hearty cheer known s0 well at Monmouth was ugain heard during the Sell- ing race, which was really finely contested, and on the appearance of the dark blue of Mr. Sunford’s stable. He ran Monarchist in the last event of the day, winning it easily, for which the stout horse received quite an ova- tion, more flattering because of the ladies Loar | conspicuods in the demonstration. Monarchist and they, or some of them, were old acquaintances, thelr fair eyes looking upon him in victories at Je- rome Park. Although four contests were on the cards, the amusement was over by four e’ciock, and at once the visitors were taken to Sandy Hook, where the Josephine was awaiting them, and, at once iil J the Fock, they were landed in New York by half- past Bix. spoken THE RACING. ‘The track was in fine condition and the weather suitable for good running, but everything went oif tamely compared with Tuesday from the want of enthusiasm. The crowd was not there toencourage the runners or to cheer the victors. Four races came off, the first being ‘a gentlemen's steeple chase,” which had seven entries, but only three came to the post when summoned for the start, ‘The second event was a selling race, which had five starters; the noxt the Monmouth Oaks Stakes, which had thirty-five entries and eight starters, and the closing event was the Mansion House Stakes, which closed with thirteen entries, but bad only two starters, . The runners in the first race were D, J. Banna- tyne’s brown gelding Dutty, by Hunter’s Lexington, dam Olio, six years old, carrying 1564 pounds; R. Shea’s brown colt Astronomer, by Asteroid, dam Miss Carter, four years old, 148 pounds; and Coffin & Lawrence's bay gelding Jim Tisdale, by Revenue, dam Louisa Jordan, aged, 160 pounds. Dufly was the favorite at long odds over the fleld, This was one of the most miserable attempts ab steeple- chasing that has been perpetrated for some time, the only horse in the race that ran the distance be- ing Duffy, with Mr. Bannatyne on his back. He made all the Jumps in fine style, the others not going over a fourth of them. Lawrence could not get Jim Tisdale to jump, while Clason tumbled off twice before he gave up the chase a8 a bad job. He fell off first when he was leading one hundred yards, while his horse was cantoring across the fleld quite gently. Mr. Olason was not hurt, but ne hesitated so long before mounting again that the other two horses passed him, giving Daffy alead of nearly 4 quarter of a mile, The second time he went over the horse's lead was ate sauce near the Stables ta the outer | King Lear, dam 87 Ibe., and J.

Sanford’s bay colt Monarchist, by Lexington, dam Mildred, and W, Cottrill’s chestnut colt Frank Ross, by Daniel Boone, dam Sigma. This was a very uninteresting affair, as Monarchist took the lead at the start and galloped in front of the other to the end, winning by a dozen lengths, the time being thirteen seconds and a half slower than poe same distance was made by Longfellow the day efore, The following are the details of the racing as it came off:— THE FIRST RACE.

Jim Tisdale afterwards jumped over an followed the others, but a long distance behind. Astronomer went on showing the way, papi fences and ditches, until he came into the field tha’ is encircled by the track, when, without a cause, Clason, his rider, fell off the horse and stood holding the reins until ‘Duffy had passed him and taken such a commanding lead that there was no chance of his ever catching him. Jim Tisdale alsocame up and passed Astronomer be- fore Clason mounted. Duffy went on with the race, and made his jumps very prettily. Astronomer fol- lowed on for half a mile more, and then his rider fell off and made no further effort to race. Jim Tisdale did not go around the course. Duffy can- dered along to the end, making the distance in 13g. THE SECOND RACE.

The horses had a very fine start, after a break- away, in which Cordelia threw her rider. As the horses passed the stand Chivalry led half a length, Lord Byron second, Cordelia third, Rounder fourth, Jennie Patterson fifth. Going around the upper turn the race was very close between Rounder, Lord Byron, Chivalry and Cordelia, Jennie Patter- son being outpaced. At the quarter pole the quar- tet were nearly parallel. Going down the back- stretch Cordelia fell back a length, the other three running with their heads together, As they pagsed the half-mile pole Rounder and Chivalry were run- ning head and head, a neck in front of Lord Byron, Cordelia three lengths behind. Going around the lower turn Rounder led by 8 neck, Chivalry second, half a length in advance of Lord Byron, Cordelia three lengths behind. When the horses entered the homestretch a very exciting struggle ensued between Chivalry, Rounder and Lord Byron. They were on even terms for some seconds; then Chivalry showed in front and Rounder fell back. A whip and spur contest finished at the score by Chivalry-winning the dash by a length, Lord Byron second, Rounder third, Cordelia fourth, Jennte Pat- terson one hundred yards behind. Time, 2:14.

Racing has become one of the leading instita- tions of Saratoga 8p! . Two meetings of six Gays each, commencing July 13 and August 16, will be held this season at the beautiful course, within mile of the great hotels. Notwithstanding there is meeting in progress at Long Branch, there are already here about sixty horses in active training, including a number of flyers unknown to fame and several fresh colts from .Kentucky decid- edly promising. When the lot at Long Branch, and the delegations expected from other points, shall have been added to the stables now here, there will be such an array of high-mottled steeds as will do a live man good tolook upon, Saratoga is the ground upon which the decisive battles are yearly fought, the best horses from all sections meeting here; and this season will he marked in this respect. Among the horses now here are tho stables of Mr. Snediker. six in number, including Mr. Pennook’s promising brother to James A. Connolly; Mr. Doswell’s four, so successful at Jerome Park; Mr, Withers’ five, mostly imported; Mr. Belmont’s branci stable, in charge of Mr. Taylor, including the famous Kingfisher, moving much after the style of his palmiest days; Mr. Coar’s three, with Ortolan at the head; Major Thomas’ stable, from Kentucky, four in number, including two dangerous-looking three-year-old sons of Wat Dance, one out of Herzog’s dam, and the other out 4 Captain T. G. Moore’s stable, three im number, the powerful colt London being evidel his favorite; Mr. Stringfleld’s stable of who much good ing, ough, unsuccessful, at the Jate Jerome Park meeting; Mr. Jennings’ four, wit Cape Race in the lead—wonderfully improved since his failure at Jerome Park; Messrs. Hunter & Tra- vers’ six, including the successful three-year ol Alarm and Backden} Colonel McDaniel’s reserve eleven; Mr, Buckley’s Echo, &c., &c. The weather being delightful, and the race course in excellent condition, the horses are taking their regular gallops, with an occasional trial spin, atford- ing visitors much good sport. Tne hotels are fides Als an amount of patron- age quite unusual beiore the Fourth of July, and the smiling landlords are anticipating crowded houses and heavy bank accounts. The breezes are full of floating inusic, and belles and beaux are anticl- pating the speedy inauguration of balls, hops, &¢. MISCELLANEOUS CAMPAIGN DASHES. Sam Randall has been appointed chairman of the Pennsylvania Democratic State-Central-Committeges He has vigor, energy and temper. A Pennsylvania democratic paper wants to know if the people of that State desire to place a map like Hartranft in the seat once occupied by a “Sny- der, a Wolf and a Shunk.” The printer had to be very careful in spelling these names, othe: he might have made a very annoying blunder. A Syracuse paper compares Horace Greeley to Coriolanus (‘Corry O’Lanus’’), A miserable dodge to catoh the Celtic vote. A Western paper analyzes the names of Grant and Greeley thus:—Both have the same handle, Gr. One has the suffix “ant,” which means indua- _ trious, prudent, fall or work, foresight and energy; and the other has the suMx “eeley,” which means wriggling, slippery and not twice tn the same place. cae Richard C. Parsons has been nominated for Von- gress from the Cleveland (Ohio) district, where- upon the Herald of that city procceds to give hima first rate notice. Henry A. Wise pitches into Greeley right and left, H, A. W. wants the Democratic Convention to be discreet and its nominee wise. Hoarse laugh— Haw | haw ! haw! The “sole” contestant on the Grant ticket is the “Natick Cobbler.” The Boston Post (Greeley democrat) avers that public opinion is settling down to the acceptance of Horace Greeley as the sole contestant with Gen- eral Grant for the Presidency. The Boston Post speaks of the ‘most sensible and convincing letter of Congressman Roosevelt,” which, it says, “portrays the political situation to all democrats in as just and clear a light as any in which it is capable of being presented.” The Boston Journal (Grant) declares that the nomination of Mr. Greeley at Baltimore “will not give him a single additional republican vote.” It ia not republican votes the democrats are hunting just now. The Boston Post is severe upon the Chicago Times for the latter's bold assertion that if the Baltimore Convention goes for Greeley it will break up the democratic party and all party fealty will cease. ‘We remember a time when the Post was so straight against party coalitions that it ‘leaned back wards.” Wanted—A labor reform candidate for the Presit dency. To-day 1s the Fourth of July, the day Americans delight to celebrate; and many & couutry politi- cian will lead off in singing, “Bring forth (on this glorious Fourth) the royal demijohn.”” A Western paper relates the following in illustra- tion of the proximity of the Greeley democrats to true democratic headquarters :— ‘A soldier during the war entered a drinking saloon and found there o jovial chaplain, half-seus- over, who asked him what command he to, “To the —— Illinois, rr an 1 flong, sir? ed the chaplatby “to army of the Lord.” swell, replied the soldier, “all I’ve got to say Is that you are a long ways from head- quarters.” The Detroit Free Press (anti-Greeiey democrat) gives ‘Fourteen Reasons Why-Greeley Should Not Be Nominated at Baltimore.” But there are already over six hundred reasons why he should be—dele- gates who are instructed to vote for him, The Hunterdon county (N. J.) Demovrat hoists the name of Joel Parker for President, subject to the decision of the Democratic National Con- vention. Some of the old democratic party hacks having been obliged to baw! to less during the last twelve years, are now going to bawl-to-more. Thore was an old fossil named Wise Who sald, said he, “lagt my eyes ¥, evel e Nd Horace Greele; Eleoted—a man I despise. . Says a correspondent (an old politician) writing from the interior :—‘“There will be & bolt at Baltt- more, another ticket nominated, and the boitera, will stick to 1t.
