‘JEROME PARK. First Day ot the Autumn Meeting. SEVEN CAPITAL RACES. Large Attendance and General Enjoyment. Yesterday marked the opening of the fall season ofracing at Jerome Park. The day was not cal- culated for a prilliant attendance, wherein loveli- ness and fashion lend their aid to make a picture fall of color and animation, It looked like rain, and therefore the fair sex did not show as numer- ously as if the bright and bentgnant weather of the day previous had blessed the opening. But it was pleasant, nevertheless, and the main stand and the club house, and the delightfal quarter- stretch promenade, with its soft, velvety carpet of green, were alive with well dressed people. The French pool, nowa thoroughly acclimated institution of Jerome Park, and the seductive Underwood's pool reaped an abundant havest. The track was notin the condition sportingmen deem desirable. It was a trifle heavy with sand, yet not too heavy to be an impediment, Such a day for racing was never before seen in the annals of Jerome Park. Seven really splendid races were run, and the style in which they were brought out shows that the American race course 1s every year approaching nearer and nearer the best Eng- Ush models.

When the starting judge dropped his flag Count D’Orsay was pulled across the track and the others were “dey yards away before his jockey (Evans) realized the fact that the race nad begun. Tom Bowling was 100 yards away before D’Orsay was running his best. The latter shut up the daylight on ait but’ ‘Tom. Bowling in three-quarters Tom Bowling cut out the work from the start and went rapidly around the upper turn, leading a dozen lengths to the uarter pole, Merodac second, Springbok third, ilowcraft fourth, D’Orsay fifth. As the horses came down to the foot of the bluff, Tom Bowling was leading twenty lengths, Merodac second, Feliowcrait third, Springbok fourth, these three being lapped on each other; D’Orsay tweive lengths behind and running very fast. There was no change of place from the time the horses went out of sight around the hill until their appearance again on the lower turn, except that D’Orsay was much closer to the others. When the horses reached the three-quarter pole, D’Ursay was second, Merodac third, Fellowcraft fourth and Springbok fifth. ‘Tom Bowling Joped under a pull up the home- stretch and as he passed under the wire at the end of the first mile he was leading three lengths, Springbok having passed the others and taken second place. The latter made play for Tom Bow- ling on the upper turn, a8 he had done twice before in their races, At the quarter pole Tom led two lengths, and as he came down and assed in front of the biuif he had four lengths the tof it. Springbok was four lengths anead of DOrsay, who was one length in advance of Merodac and Fellowcraft, these two runuing head = and_ head. As Tom Bowling ap- proached the half mile pole, gomg around the hill, Springbok again made a dash at him and seemed to close, but when they appeared on the Jower turn Tom was leading two lengths and run- ning well in hand. The other horses were ail beaten. Springbok struggled on to the end, but Tom galloped up the homestretch easily, passing under the string on a common canter two Jengths, Springbok being forced all the way home, his jockey hoping against hope. Springbok was twenty lengths in front of Fellowcratt, the latter being twenty lengths ahead of Plies | who was one length in advance of Merodac. he time of the two miles was not officiaily taken, but out- eiders made it 3:40.

They ran in this way around lower turn and up the homestretch, passing under the wire at the stand without changing places, juarter pole When they reached the Artist and Battie O'Neil were still side and side, Wheatly third, Mate fourth, Utica fifth, Wildidle sixth. Coming downto the bluff Hayward sent Mate aying, and he ay closed on the others, and as he passed around the hill was close up to the two leaders. Hattie O'Neil surrendered when Mate made his attack, and the race was left to be decided between Mate and Artist.

Coming up the homestretch Shylock closed up some of the daylight; but as they passed under the wire M. A. B. was two lengths in front. Shylock was forced around the upper turn, and the quarter pole he was at the mare’s shouider. She, however, drew away from him ie passed hey around the bluff, and was two lengths ahead at the half-mile pole. Shylock then made dash, and when he came in sight on the lower turn was half a length infront. M. A. B. was not to be shaken off, however, and she went up and took Shylock by the nose at the three-quarte: ie. From there to the stand the race was simpiy nd, and the skill of the English jockeys, Barbee, was brought out conspicuously, They labored hard for mastery, and landed under the wire head and head, the judges being compelled to de- cide a dead heat. Time, 2:4614. It -was discovered aiter the jockeys dismounted that the stirrup of M. A. B. had broken on the way up the homestretch, which kept Evans from using the exertion required to force the filly along; and this led to her backers investing anew in her favor, not knowing at the time that all previous bets were null and void ac- cording to the rules of the American Jockey Club, The second attempt was won by Shylock having the most endurance. Me won by half a dozen lengths in 2:46. TYPOGRAPHICAL SOCIETY, ‘The New York Typographical Society held their regular semi-annual meeting on Saturday even- ing, at No. 3 Chambers street, which was well at- tended by the printers. Many interesting reports were presented by the Secretary and Treasurer, and the finances showed a surplus in the hands of the bankers. The late panic had not affected the affairs of the society, a tact which was considered providential to the craft. An exciting contest took place on the election of Trustees, which finally resulted in the choice of Edward M, Skidmore and Archibald Miller. A Board of Directors was also elected, and forthwith entered upon their duties, Messrs, Gillespie and Fish made a re- ort upon a bequest of the late Daniel Fi aw, in which the deceased mentioned the society. The bequest, however, will be of no benefit the society, and the committee were disc! from the further considerayon of the subject, FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. Further Advance in the Prices of Stocks. Is This a Healthy Sign, or Are We Verging Upon Other Troubles ? CAUTION NECESSARY. Money Awaiting Investment, but Fright- ened by the Situation. GOVERNMENT BONDS STRONG. Sure Symptoms of Strength—A Choice in Investments. CURRENCY GROWING EASY. Greenbacks in Larger Sup- ply and More Active. WALL STREET, Sarurpay, Oct. 4—6 P. M, The stock market to-day, after yielding tempo- Tarily to depression, incident ww the announcement of one or two failures in mercantile circles, re- sumed its upward career, and prices reached the highest altitude of tne week. The advance, how- ever, has not been attended with those symptoms of permanent health calculated to restore conf- dence. Actual transactions were limited, while brokers labored véry much as if they were under instructions to give to stocks all the “floor” value they would stand. :t is to be feared that such a condition of affairs is both unsound and dangerous, because if reaction should suddenly follow and a decline of four, six or eight per cent occur, the shock would not be so wéll sustained by half as that through which the community have just passed. While it is one of the AXIOMS OF WALL STREET that the higher prices go the more do people buy, it is, nevertheless, just as true that the purchasing element is at the present moment cramped and confined and kept at bay by the threatening atti- tude which the street always presents when the market is purely artificial. As we have said be- fore, there is an abundance of money waiting for investment, but it has been scared too much by recent events to trust itself in another dark hole with @ small outiet. An encouraging feature of the day has been a strong advance in GOVERNMENT BONDS, the demand being large and 1n excess of the sup- ply. Atime hasrarely presented itself when so much profit on a permanent investment bas seemed more promising than now. This is, of course, due to the confidence felt in this class of securities, and the practical value of which they are the representative. It is said that the German bankers, as well as our own banking institations, have been large buyers to-day at the low rates, The closing quota- tions are as follow! United States sixes, 1881, coupon, 114% a 11534; United States tive-twentles, coupon, 1862, 108; United States five-twenties, coupon, 1864, 109; United States tive-twenties, coupon, 1865, 110; United States five-twenties, coupon, 1865, new, 11344; United States five-twen- ties, coupon, 1867, 11414; United States sixes, five- twenties, coupon, 114%; United States ten-forties, coupon, 1083; new fives, 1083;; Pacilic sixes, 1104 alll THE FOREIGN MARKET. London advices by cable describe the foreign market in American securities as strong, with “bears” buying to cover short interests. The rate of discount in the open market for three months bills is 45 per cent, or 34 per cent below the Bank of England rate. The rate for money at the Stock Exchange on government securities is 2%{ per cent. Paris despatches quote rentes at 58f. 5c. The fol- lowing are the last London quotations :—Consols for money, 924 & 925%; for the account, 92%; five-twenties, 1865’s, old, 95%; 1867's, 95%; new fives, 92; Erie, 43. THE MONRY MARKET affords gratifying indications of a speedy return to ita normal condition at this season of the year. ‘The rates to-day on collateral securities were 1-16 and interest, with exceptional transactions at 7 per cent gold, 7 per cent and 6 per cent currency, ‘The discount business was dull, in consequence of feverishness resulting from the one or two failures spoken of elsewhere. The dealings consummated were on the basis of 12 @ 165 @ 18 per cent. The premium on greenbacks to-day was { @ a1 percent. The volume of supply, however, is rapidly becoming equal to the demand. If matters go on smoothly from this time iorward an easy money market may be confidently expected. No weekly bank state- ment was made, because of the difficulty of pre- senting the condition growing out of the new and temporary Clearing House system that has been adopted, in the attempt to bridge the present dif- ficulty. At a meeting of the Loan Committee to- day the following resolution was passed :— Resolved, That the Chairman of the committee request all banks which have taken out loan cer- tificates to return and cancel them from day to day, as oan as prac ras es that the aggregate may be rapidly reduced. ‘The amount of $1,500,000 was cancelled to-day. Foreign exchange was firm for sixty days’ ster- ling. which was quoted at 107'4 for prime, with active business at 10%, Sight bills stand at 108 @ 10844. THE GOLD MARKET presented no unusual feature. The decline was from 110% to 109%. The rates paid for carrying to- day were 1-32 and 1-64 per cent to flat, and for bor- rowing, 3, 8-64 and 6 percent. The final rate was 7 per cent for borrowing. The prices of gold to- day were :— BI - 110 1... 110 11:56. 109% 3. 109% A large amount of bullion was received to-day by the European steamers. The operations of the Gold Exchange Bank to-day were as follows:— Gross clearances. CLEARING HOUSE ST. Currency exchange: Ourrency balances Gold exchanges. Gold balances... SOUTHERN SKCURITIES were simply steady and inactive. The following are the late quotations:—Missouri sixes, 88; Mis- sour sixes, Asylum or University, 84; Tennesee sixes, old, 734; do. sixes, new, 73; Virginia sixes, old, 35; do, sixes, consolidated, 46; do. sixes, deferred 9%; North Carolina sixes, old, 20; do. funding act, 1866, 17; do, do,, 1868, 174; South Carolina sixes, January and July, 10; Louisiana sixes, tevee, 5235; do., sixes, levee, 56, RAILROAD BONDS were more than usually active, vying with govern- ment securities in strength, and commanding attention because of the permanency of value which they appear to have preserved during the crisis, Prices to-day were generally well main tained, Central Pacifics were firm at 93 a 93%, and the varions Union Pacific iasnes in good de mand. Union Pacific firsts were especially active, and advanced from 73 to 75. Incomes brought 53 and Land Grants 64.

In connection with this suspension, the firm of Eldridge, Dunham & Co. was also mentioned, but we are assured that the statement js incorrect. The firm is reported solvent by first class authori- tes.

The Atias,on her previous voyage to Jamaica, took down the new captain of the Virginius, | formerly of the Confederate navy, and several officers. The Virgintus is a splendid craft, and was built for blockade running; and if Brigadier Gen- eral Quesada takes charge of her on her present projected expedition success will, in all proba- bility, crown his efforts. From noon crowds of sympathizers with the tyrannized “Gem of the An- lies” came down to the wharf to bid farewell to those near and dear to them, who were about to risk their lives for their country’s redemption. Many Spaniards were there, who scowled fiercely at the patriots and longed to see them executed as traitors. To the honor of that nation, however, it nist be stated that two Spaniards jomed the liberating expedition, one being Lieutenant Fran- cisco Bettino, formerly of the Spanish army in Cuba, while the other was a lad of some fliteen ears, e While the enthusiasm of the crowd was at its height @ carriage drove down to the wharf, con- ic tainin, GENERAL RYAN and Deputy Boyland, who held him as a prisoner, RELEASED AND ENLISTED, Ryan was arrested during the day by John Bo- land, aided by detectives from Mooney’s agency. The arrest was made on an old charge. It appears that the fillibuster about a year ago, was arrested on a charge preferred by a Mr. Taylor, in which the latter charged that Ryan had obtainea $100 from him and got out an order o1 arrest, and one of Sheriff arvis’ deputies arrrested him at the time. When the matter was brought up Ryan procured bail in the sum of an admiral in the Cuban navy and a Dr. Skinner being bondsmen for him, These bonds were afterwards found to be worthless, but in the meantime Ryan had left for parts unknown and remained away one year, A few days ago he returned, and, only pass- ing through the city, went on to Washington. Un- derstanding that he would be back yesterday Bolan had the train watched, and, following Ryan, ar- rested him on the corner of Broadway and Ex- change place.He was afterwards taken before Jnd- son Jarvis, who was about to hold bim, when the lawyer of the rd with Ryan, who departed on his way re- oicing. As soon as the news was known that Ryan wasin custoay for debt a subscription was started, and within a few moments the required sum was ob- tained by the energy of Dr. Galvez and his wife. Among the contributors may be mentioned Mr. Luna, Mr. Arteagas, the treasurer of the ‘Amigos: de Cuba,’ Mr. Bermudez, Mr. Machado, and last, but not least, the well-known patriot, Mme. Villaverde, who presented the expedition a couple ot Weeks ago with their colors. ‘The cheering was fairly deafening when it was ascertained that Ryan was (ree, and many embraced him, forgetting the conduct of the man on the occasion of the Fanny expedition, and looking upon him as one of the old friends of Cuba Libre. je men of the ex- pedition have been drilled by Lieutenant Bacunaya, at 94 Clinton place, and are now all familiar with the use of the rifle and the machete.
