PROSPECT PARK FAIR “GROUNDS, Fourth Day of the Autumn Trotting Meeting. THREH CAPITAL CONTESTS. Delightful Music and Lovely Weather. Eveline Wins a Match, Gazelle the 228 Purse and American Girl the “Free for All” Trot. ‘The delicious, balmy weather, with bright sun- and bracing breezes, which were waited over ‘Manhattan and Long Islands yesterday, induced ¢ numbers to take a healthful ride towards the wea, and the beautiful Fair Grounds presented a @more populous appearance than has been wit- messed before during the week. The inducements offered by the management of the Park were such as were likely to bring a large assemblage to- gether, as, besides three capital trotting races which were to come off, Bernstein’s band was to @igeourse delightful music between the heats, the atter being a great improvement on old turf cus- tome and lends a charm to the sport which is much appreciated by the ladies. Music on the race eourse between heats is just as appropriate as it is fm a theatre between the acts, and will fm future be considered 80; and henceforthy be ,it understood by proprictors of tracks, mo coming trotting or running meeting will be telerated without good music as an accompaniment to the sport. Among the many persons who were on the balco- fules of the Club House, the Grand Stand, the quarter stretch and the lawns we noticed Mr. M, T. Hunger- ford, George W. Crossman, James Weaver and family, M. L. Wood, J. M. Shauncke, J. K. Tucker, @. M. Writer, ©. Green, John Fields and family, L. ? Richardson and family, H. W. unt, W. J.

Lovell, Mr. Coan, Mr, Gross, who all seemed highly detighted with the in- teresting racing that came off during the after- Boon, Tbree trotting races were announced to take place, the frst being a match for $200, between black mare Eveline and bay mare Topsey, mile heats, best three in five, in harness, Topsey was the favorite at nearly two to one belore the start. Eveline won the race in three straight heats very ~ easily and in good time for one of her class, ‘The second race was for the first regular purse . @n the programme of the day, which was for $1,350, for horses that have never beaten 2:28; $800 to the ‘Mret, $350 to second and $200 to the third, mile » Meats, best three in five, in harness. For this event Shere were eight entries, comprising Joun Lovett’s bay mare Gazelle, G. P, Carpenter's bay mare Lady Ross, J. J. Bowen’s black gelding Camors, W. H, Jarvis’ gray gelding Doubtful, Dan Piifer’s chestnut ‘mare Grace Bertram, W. H. Borst’s bay gelding Ed. Foster, J. Pawling’s bay gelding George, j@nud Peter Mance’s gray gelding St. Elmo. Camors and St. Elmo were withdrawn be- fore the start. Gazelle was so great a favor- {te that pools were sold with her left out, an* tm these pools Gracé Bertram had the call over the others. Gazelie won the race in am exercising gait, Grace Bertram wiuning second money, and Lady Ross the third prize, Doubtful and George were both distanced in the first heat. They broke before ‘they reached the quarter pole and were a distance ‘out from that time to the end of the heat, ‘The third race was for a purse of $2,000, free for ,all—$1,000 to the first, $60 to the second and $400 to the third horse. There were only three entries for the purse, consisting of Mr. Wililam Lovell’s ‘bay mare American Girl, driven by Ben Mace; W. . Doble’s bay mare Rosalmd and Dan Mace’s brown gelding George Palmer. American Girl was ‘the favorite over the field at long odds before the Start. Between the other two horses Rosalind had the call at 100 to 30. American Girl won the first ‘heat, and then ten ‘to one were wagered on her. ) Bhe came in first on the second heat; but the faudges thought that she had gained a little by a break that she made and gave the heat to Rosa- find. American girl was still the favorite. Rosa- find won the third heat cleverly, and then she be- ame the favorite at 5 to 1. American Girl won ‘the fourth heat, and again became a great favorite, and also won the filth heat and the race. George Palmer was second in the fourth and fifth heats, The following are the dctails of the trotting as it rogressed :— R The First Trot. First Heat.—Topsy was the favorite at 10 to 6. Eveline won the pole. At the second tite of trying Eveline got away with half a length the best of it.

LEXINGTON, Sept. 20, 1972. Two races were on the card to-day, the first being the Produce Stakes for three-year-olds, two mile heats, aud the second a sweeptakes for two- year-olds, a mile dash. The track was largely attended to-day, as the race by the two-year-old colts on Tuesday had cre- ated so much interest among the breeders of thor- oughbred stock that it had the effect of bringing to the course on this occasion the largest gathering of any day during the meeting. THB PRODUCE STAKES | had seven entries, three of which came to the post. These were B. G. Thomas’ bay colt War Jig, by War Dance, dam Dixie; E. E. Eagle's bay colt Lanpi, by Lightning, dam Sallie, and A, Buford’s bay filly Malita. Considerable money changed hands, Lanpi being the favorite, War Jig second choice, Malita selling for a song. First Heat.—A good start was given with Lanpi in the lead, closely followed by War Jig, Malita, | third. These relative positions remained un- changed to the finish of the heat, Lanpi winning under a pull, War Jig secoud, Malita ten lengths behind, Time, 3:48'%, which was very slow time over so good a track, Second Heat.—The horses having cooled out finely | went Off rapidly at the tap of the drum, Lanpi lead- ing, closely followed by War Hg, Malita trailing through the first mile. Passing the haif-mile pole on the second mile Malita changed positions with War Jig and made pisy at Seg but she was un- hing him. inpi came home an easy winner, Malita second, War Jig distanced, ‘Time, 3:37.

Discourtesy and Insult to the English Cricketers—Thoy are Refused Admit- tance to the Tombs, Though Provided With a Regular Office Pass. The readers of the HeRALD are well aware that a number of English gentlemen cricketers are at present here making a tour of the States for their own pleasure as well as to give exibitions of their skill in the game 80 peculiar to Englishmen. It is also known, prob- ably, that they have received uniform kindness and countries from Americans since their arrival here. It was left to New York municipal servants to play the braggart and the bully and to disgrace the American name and belle the wonted courtesy of Americans to foreign visitors. These English gen- tlemen, having but a short time to stay in the city, ‘Were anxious to see as many of our public institu- tions as they could before they left for Philadelphia. Armed with a pass from Mr. George W. Kellogg, the Superintendent of out-door poor, they sought admis- sion to the City Prison. The pass was an ordinary card, acouple of inches long and little more than an inch wide, on which was printed, In good readable letters the following:—“Department of Public Charities and Correction—George W. Kellogg, Sn- perintendent of Outdoor Poor, No. 66 Third avenue, corner of Eleventh street, New York.” On the back of this card was written by Mr. Kellogg, in ink, @ request as follows :—‘‘Mr. Mark Finley, Acting Warden City Prison—Dear Sir—Please allow Mr. Prince and his friends to visit the Tombs, and Much oblige G. W, Kellogg, Superintendent 0.D.P.” This might seem to a New Yorker authority sufficient to ensure ADMITTANCE TO THIS FAMOUS BRIDEWELL, But it didn’t, Mr. Finley read it, but for some cause or other his natural amiability had deserted him, and he refused to recognize the card. The Englishmen told him who they were, and on their clothing they wore emblems of their sporting tour and their nationality could not well be-mistaken. They pleaded that they were going away from the city in a few hours, and would probably never again have an opportunity to visit our institutions if denied admittance now. They urged international courtesy, and every American visitor to London knows that the utmost civility is shown to him, and every facility granted him to see the places of interest in that metropolis. But inter- national Refi valled nothing with our public functionaries, It was pent two o'clock, Mr. Mark Finley, however, as it would appear from the sequel, desiring to get rid of his visitors and throw the odium of retusal upon some one else, recom- mended Mr. Prince and his companions to visit the office of the Commissioners of Charities and get the pass endorsed on its face and then “it would be all right.” The English—nine of them—took carriages and drove up to Eleventh street and Third avenue, where they saw the genial Superintendent, who it endorsed the pass on its face as follows:— “Mr. Finley. Dear Sir—Will yon saa! oblige these gentlemen and much oblige G. W. Kellogg, Superintendent 0. D. P.” ‘hus armed again our visitors sought the classic shades of Centre street, and in their simplicity be- Neved that now they should gain an entrrnce to this famons abode of the wicked. But Mr. Finley had gone away for the day, and had left no in- struetions to his subordinates, and those persons, with more brass than brains, were more inclined, in the absence of their chief, to play “boss” and to show their brief authority, One of these gentry, whose name of course the Englishmen could not learn in the peculiar slang of the Sixth ward, ORDERED THE CRICKETERS OUTSIDE of the gate, at the same time giving them sun- dry intimations of what he would do did they not hasten their departure. They of course readily saw the character of man they had to deal with, and left without further invitation. They subse- juently called at the HERALD office and ‘reported their grievances, This insult to our visitors is the more censurable since, as it has been stated, two of the Commissioners were in the City Prison #t the time the English gentlemen calied, and had their application been brought to their notice it is hardly presumable that it would net have been granted, THE ORIOKETERS’ DEPARTURE, At about five minutes before the departure of the 8:40 train for Philadelphia the eleven filed into the depot at Jersey City last night, headed by that king of batsmen, Mr. Grace. A fair sprinkling of Englishmen had gathered together to see the cricketers, who had made such little bones of the twenty-two of the St. George's Club of this city, and in fact, of all the Canadian twenty-two's who had attempted to compete with them, The party were snown into the “Kearsarge,” a Pullman palace car, in which Prince Alexis did his first railroad travelling in the United States. Natu- rally, the Party admired the car greatly, it being the first of the kind they had ever seen, In conversation with several of the eleven they expressed themselves much chagrined at the treatment they had received in being re- fused permission te visit the interior of the Tombs, the more so as they had taken great trouble to get permission. One of them said:—“We only bad to- day to visit the city, and we much fear wheu we come back from Philadelphia we shali not be able to Btop, but will be obliged to hurry on to Boston, where we play a one aud a half days’ match next We Inesday aud Thursday.” As soon as the train was ready each man had his chair or settee, some two, pipes were alighted, and, amid enthusiastic hand shaking and “God bless you, old fellow!” from friends on the latform, the train rumbled out of the station on its road to the City of Brotherly Love, where they play at Germantown to-day. MACHINISTS AND BLACKSMITHS’ CONVEN. TION. ALBANY, N, Y., Sept. 20, 1572. At the session of the International Machinists and Blacksmiths’ Convention to-day various reso- lutions presenting business for action were re- ceived and referred, among which were the follow- ing:— Taking from the President the power to suspend ecocoeoeoeoe we coeooeo ¢ subordinate unions; for remodelling the present | Jnion ; relative b, | Ushatiekb cette Rag betta ety Mh Met nl dk the investigation will be Perkins and his wife, York strike fund; that members of subordinate unions be more firmly oath-bound to secresy as to the proceedings of meetings; that the per-capita tax be Increased to fifty cents; that $1,000 be appropriated to organize the Domin- jon of Canada; to insure members permanently disabled; to appropriate $1,000 to organize the New Engiand States, and to grant amnesty to all suspended unions, A resolution offered by Mr. Adams, of Alabama to not permit persons of African descent to become hiembers of unions was tabled. The Treasurer's report showa the recoipts to be $14,544 for the year @ the disbursements $10,547 71, leaving a balance in the treasury ainounting to $3,997 15. A POLICE COURT EPISODE, The little room in which Judge Shandley at pres- ent holds his temporary court was filled to over- flowing yesterday morning with a motley array of dranken men and women, the femate element in the ascendent. Some forty cases of feminine intoxi- cation, from sixteen up to flity, were disposed of ainidst the tears and supplications of those con- ae to the tender mercies of tle keeper of the prison. Among the cases brought before the notice of His Honor was that of Simon Nathan. Mr, Simon Nathan, a smutty-faced, whining lad of seventeen or eighteen, was accuser by his beloved spouse, @& buxom woman of thirty or there- abouts, of drunkenness and assaulting her with intent to do bodily harm. The Judge looked for some time at the in- congi uous pair, and a gleam of humor passed over his contenance, Then, turning to the aggrieved woman, he said, “This ruMa assauited you, has he, madam? Next time mnes before me will commit lim to the Juveniie Asylum; for I think he is @ dangerous man, Take him home now and was his face.” Mr. and Mrs. Simon accordingly de- parted, the Jady not secming hall satisiigd.

In the Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows this morning the decisions of the Grand Sire during the recess were taken up, and the decisions numbered 1, 2, 8, 4, 6, 7, 9, 12, 18, respectively, accompanying the published report of the Grand Sire, were con- firmed.

The question was finally indefinitely postponed, Consideration of reports of committees, laid on the table under the rule, was then in order. The action of the Grand Lodge officers during the recess In granting warrants for the institution of certain subordinate bodies in Germany was confirmed. The reports of the Com- mittee on Appeals were considered, amended and adopted. The Judiciary Committee, to whom was referred the decision of the M. W. Grand Sire, upon the question by the Grand Master of Missouri, viz:—*What is the status of members of a suspended subordinate lodge for any cause (who at the time of such suspension were ip good standing), upon the restoration of its charter and its resumption of work /” made a report ap- proving the decision, The committee further say, lesiring to make the decision more specific, that when the disabilities are removed for which a sub- ordinate lodge is Fespendes, and sald lodge re- sumes the exercise of its various functions, the officers and members occupy the same. status they did before the suspension; but when a defunct lodge has been resuscitated On the application of only a part of its members, those members making the application only are restored at once, and the other members who were in good standing may resume membership upon such terms as the local laws of the jurisdiction may prescribe. The reports of the Committee on Constitutions in referencs to amendments to constitutions of sub- ordinate lodges, submitted for examination, were confirmed, ‘The Grand Lodge at twelve o'clock took a recess till four P. M, After Recess. After recess the Grand Lodge resumed the regu- lar order of business, A new translation of the ritual of the Order into'the German language was authorized. It was: decided to be necessary for only elective oMicers of subordinate lodges to receive the Rebkah degree before installation. It was determined inexpedient to change the terms of subordinates from six to twelve months, although it was manifestly the desire ofa considerabie portion of the Grand ‘Lodge to have said change elfected. A new regalia was adopted for a Past Grand, who is also a Past Chief Patriarch. It was resolved inexpedient to allow a subordinate lodge to enact a local law ybdente # for the payment ofa specified sum as ues, and relieve the member from further obliga- tion during his membership. The Graud Lodge decided that no subordinate can change the regulation as to the qualification in regard to the age of acandidate, After a warm discussion it was determined to allow the law with reference to subordinate lodges meeting on Satar- day to remain as it stands. This action interdicts the holding of large meetings on Sundays, except for funeral purposes. A strict uniform for the En- campment was authorized if sanctioned by the Grand Encampment of the jurisdiction. It was re- solved to be aerpcniens to require subordinate lodges to transact thelr business in the fiith de- gree. The Grand Lodge adjourned at four o'clock until nine o'clock to-morrow morning. At seven o'clock it went into secret session. WELLINGTON DEAD, The “New Idea” Shooting Affray—Fatal Result — Post-Mortem Examination— Coroner Young to Investigate.

PAULINE LUCOA, A half dozen sittings for photographs at Gurney’s and a long rehearsal of ‘aust” in the greenroom of the Academy of Music took up the most of the time of the fair prima donna yesterday, At the re- hearsal were Sefiora Sanz as Siebel, Signor Vizzant as Faust and Jamet as Mephisto, A rehearsal of another opera will take place to-day. Mr. Maret- sek’s plan is to have a number of works ready for immediate representation, 80 that on the opening night he can mnke a judicious selection, But there is hardly 9 doubt that the first opera will be “LiAfricaine.” Herr Hackliinder, an eminent Ger- man Ultérateur, thus discourses about Mme, Lucca :— The Berliners must always have some one or other with whom tney can do a little bit of idolatry. ‘The idol was once Henriette Sontag, then Charlotte yon Hagen and atterwards Johanna Wagner.

Every person present in the immense house fancies the glance was directed at him, and those indescribable eyes exercise a dreamy fascination, She sings. ‘There have been, perhaps, fuller, more powerlul and more extensive voices; other singers may have been more accomplished virtuose, and more correct in the produc- tion of quavers and shakes, but the sounds which flow from her lips seem the only real sing- ing.

So, too, must the personage represented have lookeu; so must he or she have moved; any other ne pean 1s the supposition of an impossi- bility.

For several days there his been considerable dis. cussion in yachting circles as to what would be the result of the challenge issued by the owner of the sloop yacht Vision to the noted Gracie, both of the New York Yacht Club, for the Commodore’s Chal- lenge Cup. Many thought that the latter craft, famous for its great and truly remarkable vic- tories, could keep the prize, won so grandly from the Addie, against all comers; but in this they were sadly disappointed. The race was made by the owners of the yachts just one weex ago, and «a number of gentlemen and ladies who had availed themselves of the invitations extended to be prea- ent goton board the tugboat W. Tittamer, at the foot of Whitehall street, yesterday, shortly after nine A, M. The morning did not look very favor- able, as there was blowing from the west-north- west what the river men call “a two-reef breeze,” and a few of the ladies, not liking the appearance of the river and bay, left the wg before starting. The Tittamer arrived at Staten Island about eleven o’clock and there met the Vision and Gracie, with double reefs in their mainsails, and tt was apparent that their owners had come to the conclusion that they would have “plenty of wind and enough to spare.) Messrs, Alexander and Colgate soon alter came on board the Tittamer, and upon consultation with Mr. W. Krebs, the judge, it was agreed, as the wind was freshening every minute and then blowing half a gale, that the Club course should be abandoned and another substituted. This, after some discussion, was ar ranged to be from the buoy on Craven Shoals to buoy No. 872, on the Southwest Spit, and return, going over the course twice—a distance of about thirty-two miles. While this arrangement was being made both of the yachts had taken another reef in their mainsails, and preparations were being made for a rough time. The Columbia at this time, without canvas, drifted down near the Titta- mer and cheers were interchanged. The pfepara- tory whistie was blown at six minutes past twelve Sele $e second five minutes later and soon came the STARTING SIGNAL. It had been arranged that the start should be a fly- ing one, and the yachts crossed the line as follows — Name. Ouner, Leuth. Il. M8 Gracie. 8. J, Calgate, O48.....2 18" Si Vision... s.2..s Joseph Alexaiil Cin Before the start the few ladies remaining on the Tittamer had been put ashore at their request at Staten Island. It was evident that the contena- ing yachts would have all the wind they could stand up under. Their topmasts were housed, and with three reefs in their mainsalls and jibs they went on their mission, At 12:20 the Gracie was beating nicely up to windward,and the few spectators were already Of the opinion that the race would be close and ex- citing. Both boats bung to each other very closely, and as the tide wasebb they went through the water with astonishing rapidity. It was the gen- eral remark before the boats had been gone. many minutes that the much-abused Vision was carrying her canvas better than her antagonist, and that the almost invincible Gracie would at last find her match, At 12h, 23m. 158, tho Gracle endeavored to set her fying jib, but something was carried away and tho attempt was abandoned. Now the scene became one of much interest. The yachts were plying through the rough water faster and faster, and it was known that but few dry jackets were on rad of either, Passing the old hulk Ilinols the Gracia still led the Vision about a CABLE LENGTH, and the yachts were fighting gallantly for the windward position. Now the tng Tittamer jumped to her work lively, and it was as much as she could do to keep Within satisfactory distance of the boats. At 12:50 they stood away for buoy 83% on the Southwest Spit and passed it as below, although the given time is not oflicial:— HM. 8, iH, HW. 8. Gracie.......s6 12 S817 Vision...... ym 12 38 3d At 1:05 they were still very close and on the port tack, the Gracie still slightly to the windward. At 1h. 4im. 308, the Gracie stood over to the southward and westward, and a(ter it was the opinion of many gentlemen that it was a mistake, and Laspepnlf 1G Was 80, as from that time the vision commenced to obtain a slight advantage. At 1h, 52in. 10s. the latter went about, the Gracte immediately foilowing suit. Up to this hour the wind had blown with the same intensity as at the start, but it now began to mod- erate, Which fact gave great satisfaction. At two o'clock the Vision SHOOK OUT A REEF in her mainsail, and the boats were almost fying through the water, At 2h. 9m. the Vision again went about, and with still another tack at 2h. én. she stood away for the buoy on Craven Shoal, slightly leading the Gracie. ‘fhe latter meanwhile had followed the Vision’s example and shaken out @ reef, and both came bowling down to the turning boat, The buoy was rounded as follows:— HM. &. i. M. 8. VisION....6seeeeeee 2 9 Bb Gracie ...........66 2 32 2 Now the men on the yachts were working with great earnestness, and the race had become intensely exciting. The topmast of the Vision was sent up, that a large jib- topsail might be set, which was accomplished at 2h. 41m. It began to be decidedly patty again and the excitement of the morning Was renewed. This was inerensed by the fact that, though the Gracie had won so eR. noble victories, she had met her match, as in fair sailing the Vision every moment was opening the distance be- tween them. At 2h. dsm. the ying jib of the Gracie was carricd away, and from this moment the race was practica'ly lost to her. though had not this mishap occurred it is safe to predict, with- out an accident to the Vision, she would have been the winner. At 2h. 59m. the jib topsail of the Vision wags sent down, which aided her considerably, From this time the Gracie dropped greatly astern, and at the Southwest Spit buoy she GAVE UP THE RACER, standing towards the Horseshoe, where she re. mained all last night. The Vision rounded buoy No. 644 at 3h. Om. 2is., and stood to the westward for of the convicts in the | the starting point, which she reached at 4h. som. 2s., making the race in 4h. 25m. 588, Hearty congratulations were extended the owner of the winning boat when the spaces tare were hear enough to speak to him, and he, too, seemed greatly pleased at the capital performance of his yacht. She carried her canvas finely and stood up to her work m: ificentiy. At the lower landing on Staten Island the ladies taken down the bay in the morning came on board and the city was reached erodes after seven o'clock. ‘The time al- lowance due the Vision from the Gracie is three mintites and eighteen seconds, Yachting Notes.
