4 YACHTING. {| The Ladies’ Regatta of the New | York Yacht Club. The Tidal Wave, Comet and) Vision the Winners. | ee | Smooth Water and a Pleas- | ant Breeze. ‘The Ladies’ Day has always been very popular ferith the patrons of horseracing im sngland, nd as of late the managers of Jorome Park races Dave found that the dedicarion of a day to the ten- Wer sex has not decreased their receipts, it was in- | woumbent upon the Regatta Committee of the New Work Yacht Ciab to keep pace with other clubs in heir proffered courtesies. The Ladies’ Regatta of ‘the New York Yacht Club was, therejore, set down — for Thursday, June 25, and, in order to please some yacht owners and tous obtain a large entry, it was | Mecided to sail the race in cruising trim. The race wwas sailed yesterday, and everything proved fa- vorable in the way of wind and weather. » Yesterday was what may tairly be called a quiet ‘yachting day, aa there was no rushing to and {ro of steamers or screamin from theirshrill whistics, but a simple race between some eight or nine ‘yachts, accompanied by about a dozen Salling craft ‘of their own caste that were giad to seize the op- portunity of measuring their speed with those of Knowm prowess, Commodore Jacob Voorkis, Jr., wf tte Brooklyn Yacht Ciub, kindly tendered the Bend, the use of his schooner yacht Madeline aa a commitree boat, and about ten A. M. the latter got wp anchor, and, under jib, ran down off Fort Wads- | worth, where she let go inabeat twenty fathoms | of water. There was @ pleasant litte westerly | to give the committee and members of the press a view of the race. The .

A Dash of Three-Qaartors of a Mile and e Hurdle Race. “Vaniting ambition, which overieaped ttaeli” at Fleetwood Park yesterday, may teach other am- | Dittous people a lesson, if it does not the present | leasees of that trotting track. The American | Jockey Club had just Mnished a very profitable and Satisfactory meeting, when the idea was con- cetvea by the managers at Fleetwood that even the grand reunion of the admirers of racing at that popular place could be eclipsed at the track | mearer the metropolis, where less exciusiveuess would prevail and where the masses could attend im greater numbers and under fewer restrictions. The wise men of Fleetwood overiooked the primary element of the tari—the securing good horses to race with. They supposed that ail they bad to do was to get out bulls offering a few hun- dred dollars in purses, and then all the stables of | the country would gallop to tneir grounds and | pe im readiness to start at the drop of the fag im any event that might be assignea them. | Plaming posters were made to decorate the fences of the city and its surroundings announcing a three days’ meeting, witn three races each da: and by these faring announcements the managers expected to have racing that would far excel the running at Jerome Park, both in the quality of che horses and the magnitude of the fields, Aga re- tmuneration for their great enterprise they, of course, expected mammoth gatherings each day and immense receipts at the gates. But they counted without their host. The first day’s bust- | ness did not come up to their anticipations, nor | @id 1% please tl people who patronized them; and whether there will be any improve- ment to-day remains to be seen. ‘rhe three races that were announced to take place yesterday were—first a dash of three quar- | ters of & mile, then mile heats, and the third a hurdle race. The first came off according to an- nouncement, the second fell through because there were only two horses to start for what purported to be “purse $500, Merchant's Hotel stakes, en- trance free,” and the managers would not give the $500 for only two horses, as they sald “it was | against the ruies;” but they gave $400 to two | horses to run @ hurdle race of two miles, which | terminated tn a “dead heat,”’ and the money was divided between the owners of the horses, bay that the people in attendance were satisfied wit! the day's sport would be stretching the truth be- yond its limits. The last race, is must be admit- | ted, did create @ little enthusiasm at the finish, nd, if the horses had rum the dead heat oi, e' spectators might have forgotten their disgust ai the manner the mile heat affair bad | been disposed of; but when it was announced that — | the racing was over for the day the scornial and disappointed looks 0! the people vold too piainly | that when they went to the races again 1¢ would | not be at Fleetwood Park. ‘Let the shoemaker | stick to his last” is a trite old axiom. Fleetwood | Park was made for trotting purposea, and no | other; and an immense business can be done in | | that lime when the pubiic are convinced that every ‘event that comes of at that place is “on tne | square.” Jerome Par¥ is the racing ground for | the metropolis of America, and will 80 continue. | Tne following are the details of what was | done :— HE FIRST RACE.

TROTTING AT WAVERLEY PARK, Ni. J. | Good Sport and » Fair Attendance—Ex- citimg Accident to a Rider. At the handsome half-mile track at Waverley Park yesterday, the second day’s sport was a trifle | better than on the first, the trotting being more | @ven and developing a much better average time, Some of the heats were remarkably close and full of interest and excitement, A black mare, Ade. lune R, owned by @ Newark man, carried off the honors in the 2:60 race, in spite of desperate efforts on the part of jockeys and others. The attenaance was very fair comsidering the inordinately high tariff at the gate—a dollar a head Many Jer- sey people openly denounced this as an extortion, saying that during the New Jersey State Pair half the money onty was charged for mach better trot ting exhibitions, besides all the other attractions. A couple of dozen or #o of ladies were sprinkled over the grand stand and in coaches. Ason the first day, @ great deal of unnecessary delay was | caased by the jockeys in starting, in some cases a8 many a8 advuzen attempts being neceseary for & “go.” Some complaints ‘were made, too, of a ten- dency to favoritism in the judges’ stand. In the running race, No. 10, the boy who rode Dan O'Connell, met with an accident, which happily Was not faval, though serious. in rounding the track the youngster, who was not more tnan fif- teen years of uge, made a desperate attempt fo jead Geraia and wi the tence in a ximity, aad on the first heat the two horses under the string nearly neck and neck. yn the second heat Dan jell benind, but his plucky young rider tried bard to push him ahead, but in vain. Aiter passing the stand voth horses became angovernabie and broke away. Dan made m bound and cleared tne outeide fence, throwing the boy heavily on the graas. ‘was picked ap and properly cared for. at ior breaking ofa stirrup, it is thought, he would have won the race and saved himself, Gerald was caught the groom, after rounding the course at full 6) , his rider being unabie to hold him.

The bet- ting was 10 to 7 in iavor of King at the start, Hough was loudly cheered when the victory was Won, A large concourse was present and quite a number of well known sporting characters and betting men, TROTTING AT BEACON PARK—THIRD DAY. Bosron, Mass., June 25, 1874. The June meeting at Beacon Park was continued to-day in the presence ofa large number of speo- tators, There were two races on the card—the first for horses that had never beaten 2:34, with seven starters. The bay mare Lady Mac was a favorite before the start, selling for $40; King William $30; Ben Smith the same amount and the fleld $25. After the first heat the odds were heavy on Ben Smith against the fleld; but they changed again at the close of the third heat and again alter Kate Gilbert had won a heat. Aftera hot contest of seven heats the first favorite won. The second race was for horses in the 2:29 class, and five of the ht entries put in an appearance, There was considerable: money staxed on this | race. The brown stallion Hamperion was | the first choice at $70, Annie Collins | $40; Carrol, $35, and the Geld at $30.

Scharff, of Pittsburg. An Unexpected Termination— Ten Eyck the Winner. PSBESEILL, June 25, 1874. ‘This sobersided city on the Hudson was provided with @ reali and unmistakable agnsation yesterday @fternoon, which culminated this morning, end ber otherwise quiet streets were overrun with boating mea from New York and countrymen from ail sections, who, for the nonce, turned the place topay turvy. The cause of this agitation was the coming together of the professional soullers, William Scharf, of Pittsburg, and James A. Ten Eyck, of Peekskill, who had mutually agreed to test their respective killin a three mue rowing race—one mile and @ half and return--ior the sum of $500 aside. The settlement of this question has long been anxiously looked forward to by the aquatic loving portion of the United States and Canada, inasmuch as the peopte hereabouts felt that Ten Eyck could successiully pull an oar with any of the more prominent sculiers in the country, and because the resident of the Smoxy City is matched to meet George Brown, of Halifax, in a Ove-mile contest at Springfield, on the 8th prox., on which $4,000 in gold depends, the present amair being looked upon ag an important introduc- tion to that greater event, The race came off this morning, at an early hour, on the Hudson, result- ing in a victory for Ten Eyck, a termination which the majority of thove who witnessed it nad not bargained for. . THE PRINCIPALS, James A. Ten Eyck is a native of this region, having been born across the river in Rockland county in 1852, and consequently is twenty-two years ofage. He stanas five feet nine and three- quarter inches in his shoes, and lowered the scale at 133 pounds to-day. This young oarsman has figured in a number of local regattas, and occa- sionally journeyed ag far East as Boston, meeting with alternate success and deteat, The manner in which Jimmy walked away with some of the prizes | and purses thus hung up. and the speed which he ‘Was reported to have shown in private trials, in- spired his frieuds with great confidence in his ability, some unhesitatiigly expressing the belief that he was “the coming Man.” Jimmy has a boy- ish, gentle face, not calculated to impress a stranger; but there is good scuff and lasting qual- ities in nim. He was brought to the post looking exceedingly well, his flesh being firm, skin Clear, his eyes &3 bright as twin stars, ani checks glowing with the hue oi periect health. William Scharf was born in South Pittsourg-n the 16th of April, 1850, and therelore has jugt turned his twenty-fourth year. He has disting ed him- self in many regattas, and fought hid way into pub- lic notice and into the confidence o ‘nis friends py kill, endurance and manliness, He is five feet ten and a half inches tn height Without nis shoes, and this morning weighed ®bout 141 pounds.

AT THR STARTING POINT. A greater degree of interest was manifested in this match than in many where larger money was | at stake. Schari’s iriends were the more confi- dent, affecting to consicer the issue a fore- one conclusion in his favor—a deduction which they tuought was warranted by known records of the men. ‘Ten Byck’s par- tisans, though less enthusiastic, argued that he uught stick very close to billy, and | that as be was a ‘“lightoing starter,” he might | head Scharf, when they ieit coniident it would Tequire lively work to beat him. The attention bestowed upon the matca by the public inaicated that the throng to witness it would be very large, and such was the case yesterday, as two or tb arties having ap eye to the main chance set about improving their Gnancial matters by providing means of transportation tor the multitude of would-be sightseers, steamers, which arrived early in the aiternoou at Centre Dock. ‘The different steamboats and tugs brown eyes to set iyo you wonder how | the | in front at the expiration of ghree minutes.

Ten Eyck’s shell contained some water but nota- tng lige the quantity in his opponent's, the reason beimg that Ten Eyck’s boat is heavier, has more bearings, and, consequently, better adapted te rough weather than Scharff’s. The backers of the latter sculler wanted to renew the match on the game terms or increase the stakes to $1,(09 or $2,500 a side but the Peekskill populace responded not. SUMMARY.

Then the excursionists, terribly out of temper, leit the soene; the brow of the aill soon lost its hundreds oi muscular Christian gazers, and the dock was leit to its wonted quietness and dirt, All the afternoon the adherents of Scharff were seeking to invest their money, and, finding they could not speculate on even terms, offered odds ot $100 to $50, or smaller sums airaid to lay their money on Jimmy, aithough they knew that he could row over the course blind- folded, and that Scharf had never been on it but once, and then pulled over in a working boat, This showed the overweening confidence of Billy’s partisans, aod certamly the position of ire did not warrant the laying of such odds: Shortly after ave o'clock this morning the few ater portion of its inhabitants, wended their with Scharf on board, having arrived from Sing Sing an nour beiore, anxious for the race.
