The Reception of the Male Art Depart- ment=1,500 Crayon Drawings on Ex- hibition and Some 8,000 Visitors. The exhibition of the State Art Department of ‘Cooper Union last night attracted a very large number of visitors. The crush was not quite so great as on the previous night when the reception of the Free Art School for Science was held, but the number of visitors must have been at least eight thousand, Some one thousand five hundred crayon drawings were on exhibition, many of them being very gooa. The exhibition was a very inter- esting one, embracing, as it did, every variety of drawings—drawings from life, from casts, from objects, &c. The school isa very large one. Dur- ing the term no less than 1,591 scholars were ad- mitted, 732 remained at the close of the term and 289 received certificates. Of these remaining at the close of the term 48 belonged to the perspective drawing class, 115 mechanical, 70 architectural, 10 drawing from life, 28 from cast, 25 form drawing, 878 free hand drawing and 58 modeling in clay. The prize from Mitchell, Vance & Co. for the best student in ornamental draw- ing will be awarded to-nignt to Arthur Langerfeld.

Voorhees, situated amid a number of frame houses, caught fire, Great excitement prevailed, the prospect being that the flames would spread and endanger one of the handsomest and most valuable portions of the city. A high wind was blowing at the time, and water in the immediate vicinity was scarce. A number of buildings sev. eral blocks away caught fire from the flying sparks and narrewly escaped destruction. After the most frantic efforts on the part of the firemen the flames were ana subdued, no considerable damage be- ing done, It is supposed that the fire was caused by @ spark from @ passing iecomotive.

The merry May meeting of the Maryland Jockey Club closed to-day. A more grand and numerous attendance was never seen before in Baltimore, and seldom elsewhere, The grand stand was packed with beauty and fashion; in fact, it looked like a huge bouquet. The racing was not first class, yet it gave satis- faction, as a feature was introduced that never had been given before. The steeple chase probably had the effect of drawing the people together. Much was expected of the twelve nominations, but little realized. Three horses came to the front. One was ridden to lose a8 palpablyfas could be done, ‘The other two events were interesting only. The following are the details of the day's doings :— DASH OF ONE AND THREE-QUARTER MILES. The first race wasadash of a mile and three- quarters for all ages for a purse of $600.

The horse: ere started below the row of trees in the fleid to the right of the grand stand, Tammany leading, Duffy second, Lochiel third, the pace being a xnere canter.

They then made a circuit, jumping an earthen wail on the course and towards the centre of the inner field, where there was another fine water jump directly in front of the stands, Duty stil! was showing the way, closely followed by Tammany, and great enthusiasm was manifested by the crowd. They then jumped a hurdle between two of the trees, and, clearing the water ditch, again passed around the lower portion of the inner field and leaped ever an earthen wall very near the main track and the quarter-stretch, e horses: were very close together, and the backers of each were in a high state of excitement. After that the horses made a whirl at almost right angles across the inner field, taking a hurdle about the centre, and passed into the main track near the half-mile pole, Tammany leading one length and dashing away at the top of his speed. From there to the end there were two hurdles only to get over, the first ot which Tammany went over in ad- vance, but after a run of a quarter of a mile Duffy captured him and jumped the last hurdle, which Was midway up the homestretch, about a length in front.

As was anticipated, the special premium of $2,500 offered by the Prospect Park Fair Grounds Asso- | ciation as an indueement for the chestnut gelding Judge Fullerton, owned by Mr. William Humphreys, and the bay mare Gazelle, the property of Mr, Joseph Harker, te again test their speed on their track, Was very successful yesterday afternoon in bringing together a large concourse of people and eausing a grand contest, For many days this race had caused much comment in sporting circles, More particularly so as, late last Autumn, the contestants came together in the ‘Free for All Purse,” on the same track, when, after five heats had been trotted, extending into the second day, Gazelle was pronounced the wint FAD ASSAMBLED THOV: Early in the afternoon the nuinber of carriages in Prospect Park and thence to the Comey Island road suddenly increased, and the surprised officers not posted on turf matters began to make in- quirles as to the cause. Many of these contained ladies, and all looked happy in the anticipation of enjoying a pleasant exhibition of speed. By twe o’clock the numerous sheds about the course be- gan to be occupied with every description of vehicle, and half an hour later the Grand Stand and Clab House were filled with elegant looking ladies and respectable gentlemen. The majority of the former at once after their arrival selected seats on the balconies of the Club House, which made the appearance of this handsome stracturé an agreeable picture indeed. The lawn was thronged with eager looking men, and around the Poolseiler there were hundreds investing their meney, sometimes as good judgment dictated, and again as those full of information and those hav- ing “the tip” pleaded with them to do. Just before the bell called the contestants to the track the ap- pearance ef the whole surroundings was of that nature to inspire considerable enthusiasm, as fully five thousamd persons were eagerly awaiting the word to send the horses off for the first heat. Good feeling and a general desire to make every- thing pieasant characterized the conduct of the whole assemblage, although precautions were taken by Superintendent Oakley to have Sergeant Rogers, of Police Headquarters, Brooklyn, with a posse of men on hand in case of an emergency. THE BETTING. The betting men—and many of them—had the idea that Gazelle.could not be beaten, ran ker up a great favorite in the pools, and hail an honr before the start it required something of an exertion on the part of the seller to accommodate his patrons- To show the ruling rates of betting at this time the appended peois are given:— BATONS THR STARE, 1 Gazelle nb 3 130 125 (170 Fullert “5 50 70 50 50 60 THE RACK. Without any trouple the Judges of the day, Messrs. Simeon Hoagland, 8, Payson and Whitson Oakley, sent the horses away for the first heat. This was won, alter being Closely contested, by Gazelle in the excellent time oi 2:21, which caused a thundering shout of applause from every portion of the grounds. The rain, which had long been threatening, then began to fall, and, con- tinuing throughout the race, made the track, which had been in fair condition, quite heavy. The secona heat, with Gazelle selling at still greater odds than before, was won by Fullerton, the mare striking her hock against the axle of her sulky, causing her to shift her gait into that of pacing, and when being pulled up to a@ standstill to enal her to again strike a trot she fell so (@r behind that her driver did not go for the he The third was scored by Gazelle, alter a bad bre on the first turn, as was the fourth, thus giving bev the race, It 1s seldom that so much en- thusiasm is evoked by such amusement as was ob- served at vrospect yesterday, and taking into con- sideration the weather and the dusty state of the roads leading to the track the Association can well feel proud of the success attending their first grand trot of the season of 1873. The details of the amusement are as follows: First Heat—In drawing for positions Judge Ful- lerton won the pole, and at the third attempt they were sent away and going like rockets, with Ga- zelle one length the advantage, which she made three lengths on the turn. Approaching the quarter pole, Fullerton increased his speed slightly and the contestants passed this int trotting ‘andly, Gazelle two and a fair lengths in advance, in thirty-four seconds, Around the backstretch Fullerton put on little more steam, and was but one and a half lengths in the rear, but, dashing past the half-mile pole, Gazelle opened the gap to two lengths in 1:104,. Fullerton again, around the lower turn, shut up little of the daylight, but, passing the three-quar- ter pole, Gazelle extended herself and went by that point working like a machine in 1:454;. Down the homestretch Fullerton seemingly did his level best to catch the mare, and, although twice given the whip, Gazelle went under the wire the winner of the heat by two lengths, amid the shouts of the assembled thousands. ime, 2:21. Fullerton crossed the score in 2:21%. Neither made a skip in the heat. Seconda Heat.—It commenced raining a few min- utes after the first heat was announced, which caused the crowd to seek shelter on the grand stand. The word was given at the second attempt, the rain now pattering merrily on club house and stand, much to the regret of the spectators. They went away magnificently, and around the turn Gazelle dashed to the front one length in advance. While ali eyes were turned to the contestants at this point Gazelle changed her step and commenced to pace, which came near being the death-biow, cuniarily, to those who had made her such a Rreat faverite, as Lovett, her driver, was com- pelled to pull her almost to @ dead stand. still, as required under the rules, and thus at the quarter pole Fullerton was twenty lengths in advance, in thirty-six seconds. The shouts from the spectators on the stand at this moment were tumultuous because of the unlooked for event. and many who had ven- tured their money on the short side were in ecsta~ cies. Along the backstretch atthe half-mile pole, in 1:13, Fullerton maintained his advantage of twenty lengths, and many here cried out, ‘She's going 10 be distanced,” t such was far from the fact, as Gazelle’s driver on the lower turn sent her along at a clipping gait, and as Fullerton rounded into, the stretch, she had shut up the day- light to fifteen lengths. Merrily they rattled toward the stand, but at the distance flag Fuller- ton was so far to the front he was taken in hand, and crossed the score on a walk winner of the heat by ten lengths. Time, Third Heat.—The rain increased all this while and was descending violentiy, causing the track to become auite heavy. The betting men at the pool stand now made Fullerton the favorite, the average figures being—Fullerton, $120; Gazeile, $110. The “go” was given the first time they came for it, but Gazelle had @ length the worst of the send off. Going around the tarn Gazelie left her feet badly, a before being caught Fuller- ton was eight lengths in front. A thou- sand men screamed at this misbap, and hal- looea again when Fullerton went whizzing by the quarter pole, in thirty-six seconds, ten lengths ahead, Now Gazelle had become steady and Lovett began to let her out, and she trotted so magni. cently along the backstretch that soon the great gap was reduced to six lengths, and men and women who were of the ‘Gazelle phatanx’’ shouted until they were weary. half-mile pole they elosing nearer and nearer every and as t! shot py this point Fullerton was but three len, to the front, in 1:12\, The shouts continued from the spectators, aud so did the speed of the little mare. Along the iower turn Gazelle did not allow Fullerton to increase his distance; but, on thecon- trary, she was reducing it ali the time, and as they assed the three-quarter pole Fullerton had but alt @ length the better of it. Into the turn and down the stretch they came at a terrific rate, and, getting into straight work, Gazelle collared the elding, which was the cause of another yell from he spectators. Away they came for the fnisb, both trotting beautifully, but at the distance stand Gazelle was edging away from her contestant, de- spite the whipping he was receiving, and at last she landed a winner of the heat by half a length amid great applause. Time, 2:26%. Fourth Heat.—Gazéile was in the favorite about $120 to $80. It was stil raining and the track, in consequence, was very3 heavy. Notwith- standing the unpleasantness of the weather, the spectators were ina merry mood, At the second attempt the word was given to a beautiful send off. On the turn Gazelle went two lengths to the front in Sepniaoant Style, and, aided by Fullerton’s going into the air, passed the quarter-vole four lengths ahead in thirty-five seconds, That portton of the betting fraternity that were Gazelle men now began to shout, and when Fullerton, entering the backstretch, again left his feet, they jumped abont in the rain and screamed. The last break of the gelding leit him a “distance” behind and at this time the race practically over, At the half-mile pole, in 1:13, Gazelle was twenty lengths in front and trotting splendidly, It was the same along the lower turn, but, at this point, Pullerton decreased the distance five lengths anditn this manner the stretch was entered, Now Mace did all in his power to send the geiding along still faster, and, though ne succeeded in lessening the daylight somewhat, his efforts were of little use, a» Gazelle crossed the score on a jog twelve leneths: in front, thus winning the heat and race.

The Plymouth lecture room was crowded last evening. Mr. Beecher was in excellent spirits, and the congregation enjoyed @ very pieasant social taik. Mr. Beecher said:—“We were speaking last week about care and anxicty, and there is a certain relation of this subject that was not brought out, There is a distinct promise for those bearing the cares and anxieties of the world of peace—a peace which passeth understanding. We can conceive of a people whose life is deprived of caro; but how persons in the very inidst of iif, biassed and Warped by business Sure’, should be able to carry a settled peace, is a question, Canitbe? Is it practicable? Now, I recollect in a time of revival, in g Westerp town, tho question came up as to whether the business men felt the loss of time which was devoted to morning prayer meetings, The hour was from ten to eleven, just in the middle of the day, and their testimony was given that tney never had done 80 much business, their thougnts were more direct and clear, and that they never nad 80 much case in the pursuance of their busi- ness; and I have observed it since, and know It in my own case, if one can rise to a feeling of faith, filled with the sense of the importance of life to come, he can do more work, he can effect more. Look at the cares that affect men; self-love, their pride has been wounded, or they nave iost where they meant to gain, suffered in some of their passions. What annoy us most is that our lower nature cannot have its own way. This is where the enemy cuts and scores the surface of peace. Our lower nature seeks to predominate; but if we were to con- scientiously dwell near the spirit of Christ we would be set tree from these disturbances ; our mind would be single. Now, the question is, can a man live in that state? Yes, he can. Can everybody? Not everybody, as fully or as easily as others; some can dwell fora nttle time and then fall out. It is not found easy. It must be sought for by prayer, watchiulness and holy _determina- tion to dweil above the world. I don’t say he would not be brought down by a chance arrow once in a while, but Ido say that the ave- rage Uhristian can live a tranquil lite. Mr. Beecher then asked if any one had anything to say on the subject, and one of the brethren sald ke would tell a story, which had helped him to be contented many times:—A man who was travelling in Eng- land came across a lonely hut, poor, cheerless, without plastering, and he heard a voice crying rom within—the voi of an old Woman—saying, ‘All these, and Jesus too; all these and Jesus too; andthe “ail these’? was a cup of water and a crust of bread; “and,” said he, “ever afterwards I have been ashamed to be discontented.” Then another brother said he had a little story to tell pede | man who was very successful in business, an his minister thought that tis prosperity would spoil him; so he spoke to the young man abeut it, and he said, “I enjoy all things, threugh God."’ Years went on and ad- versity came, and the minister said to him, You stood prosperity, but 1 am afraid you will not stand adversity,” and he said, “I enjoy all things in God.’ Then another brother said he thought that peace did not come by any peculiar state of mind s0 much as by experience; that we have got to learn to trust God just as a regiment of soldiers learn to rely on their generai. Mr. Beecher said:—Yes, that is good and sound and orthodox too, One learns little by little. We have peace, but we won't take it. On Summer mornings I can see on the grass such sparkling drops of dew, such wonderful event, and the air so soft and balmy and the heavens so beautiful, my soul is lifted up to God, and | say to a workinginan, “Look there!’ and he looks and says, “Wall, what? I don’t see nothing.” So God is overturning things to us, only we are too coarse to see them. 1 was reading a fairy story this afternoon of a father who had three sons, and he drove them out, one after the other, to get their living one went to a carpenter, and when he leit nim the carpenter presented him witha table that had this quality: when he said “Be spread” the table was instantly covered witn the choicest viands, Now I think there is a table spread before us constantly, and, if we only had faith, we should see the table, not the literal deal, but a table spread with food tor the soul. There is a tabvie spread for us, and all that is lacking is our power to see it and our taith to call on it. ATTEMPTED HIGHWAY ROBBERY. Between one and two o’clock yesterday morn- ing Samuel Simpson, @ gardener, employed at Riverdale, Westchester county, while proceeding home from Yonkers, was stopped by two stalwart men, Who demanded his money or his life. Not feeling disposed to part with either on such sum- mary notice, Simmons, seeing that the highway- men were preparing to attack him, pulled out a pruning knife, and, placing his back against a stone wall, plied the weapon vigorously in order to repulse his assailants, cutting the coat sleeve of one of them in several places. Seizing & favorable opportunity he fled, however, and repaired to the police station at Kingsbridge, where he told the story of his encounter. The telegraph was immediately’ used to communicate with (ad headquarters at Yenkers, the result being that the would-be robbers wer prehended in the station house, where they had @ short time previously secured lodging for the night. The prisoners were fully identified by Simpson, and alter an examination before Judge Baird, were committed without bail to await the action of the Grand Jury. . SUICIDE BY SHOOTING.
