A Vivid Exhibition of the Poetry of Motion. FOUR CAPITAL RACES. ——-+_—— Bingaman the Winner of the Mile Dash, Artist of the Mile Heats, Brigand of the Jorsey Derby and Bullet of the Steeplechase. ‘The races which opened the first summer meet- ing of the New Jersey Jockey Club at Monmouth Park yesterday occurred under the most favorabie auspices. The weather was delicious to begin with. The clouds of the later part of the morn- Ing, which threatened rain and portended a bad track for the day, were swept away as the 9:40 boat steamed away from her dock, leaving behind them glad streaks of sunshine and delightful breezes. There was no oppressive heat, but everything to gratify the seekers after Pleasure who sought for it at the races. It was anticipated that the regular boat would carry down an immense throng of people, and conse- quently everybody who coula get away in time | ‘Went down by the early boat, while many persons Waited for the extra accommodation. This had the effect of depleting the 9:40 boat of the great crowd that was expected and distributing the visitors in such way as to make each trip ex- | ceedingly comfortable. There was no overcrowd- ing, ho pressure, no jam, either going or returning, and, best of all, there were no vexatious delays either at the ground or at Sandy Hook. A more pleasant excursion never sailed out of New York, the manner in which the transportation of the visitors was conducted adding | Jargely to the pleasure of the occasion. | Indeed, the ease and order with which | everything was done were a double surprise, for it gweented impossible that so many people as thronged the grand stand, the club house and tne | quarter stretcn could have been so quietly brought togetner. Yet there they were, thousands of eager faces, and as the first sound of the bell which an- nounced the beginning of the races had not, like | Roderick Dhu’s bugle blast, the power to summon them, it was plain they must have come by boat and train. A characteristic feature of the meeting at Mon- mouth Park yesterday was seen in the diverse ele- ments of the multitude, The assemblage was not Motley, but cosmopolitan. The sporting fraternity from every part of the country was, of course, Jargely represented, This could hardly be other- wise when the horses entered represent Stables, we might say, in almost every State. The South was especially well repre- sented, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and | ‘Tennessee being among the Southern States which | have contributed entries to the meeting. But the Multitude was not alone remarkable for the turi- men who were present. Mingling with the crowd ‘Were tue Governors of four States, and there were Public men in abundance, from Senators and ex- Senators at Washington to Assemblymen and ex- Assemblymen at Albany. Then came Aldermen and the lesser sort of politicians in profu; sion. And even the lobhby—that peculiar intinence on jegislation which no Con- | gressman who ever became mysteriously rich was ever able to discover, sent some of its very best men to bet aud be jolly at the Long Branch races. New York contrivated specimens of almost every Class of its society, The solid men and the light-lngered geniry jostied each other in the crowd. Wali) street elbowed Houston street in the busy throng. The merchant prince and the pale and sickly counter jumper met, and Mt Was not easy to tell which bought the most pools for the impending races. Authors, actors and artists exchanged nods of recognition and asked each other what they had got. “What’ve | you got?” was a (nvorite form of interrogation, And everybody seemed to be winning largely, for everybody was smiling and happy. Besides, if everybody was not winning largely the lars in the crowd must have outnumbered the proportion in that famous Connecticut school, where out of 182 pupils 181 were economical of tie trotn, for it was impossible to discover anybody anywhere who Rad not won ail his bets, Another feature of the day's races was the man- mer in which the’races were conducted. The pro- gramme was carried out to the letter. The starts, ‘which were made under the direction of Colonel Johnson, who came all the way irom Tennessee to see that the horses got well off, were satisfactory and free from vexation. There were no tiresome or unnecessary delays between the races. The first mile dash was the sherry before dinner. The ‘three heats of the second mile dash was the soup and the fish, with a course of rare roast beefiathe | evenly contested race between Survivor and Artiet. The Jersey Derby, as it was called, ‘was the reed virds and other delicacies Which precede the dessert. The dessert itself, which was more elaborate and magnificent than the dinner, was found in the steeplechase, with | the cigars and French coffee and cognac thrown in by means of the misnaps and what may be called the alter race for the third money, This simiie of the different coarses of a dinner for the day’s sport is irresistible, so piquant and sub- | stantial and enlivening was it in all) its parts, The almost neck and neck race of the two horses in the last heat of the second race roused the enthusiasm of the multitude toa high Pitch of excitement, mostly on account of the | beauty and poetry of the struggic. But the poetic feature of the day was the tripte jeap of the stone | The three horses Jeaping the wall simultaneously and touch: ing the ground with the precision of a} battalion of trained veterans, their limbs glancing in the sunlight with a perfect blending of | color, was @ picture too fine for an artist’s Imag- ination. It was a scene .vivid aimost beyond the power o! belief. Three Nashes of heaven’s artillery, alike in form and color and beauty, and darting from the clouds at the same instant, are the only | paraliel to this poetic leap. It will last In the mem- | ory of those who witnessed {t as long as the poetry of motion finds favor in their eyes. ven the exciting scenes which followed it of the fallen horses and their thrown riders, and the “up and at | it again” spirit that was manifested in the close of tare which crystallized in the imagination while it ‘was depicted tothe eye, This beautiful vision and the general excellence of the sport made the occa- sion fally worthy of being considered ao fitting celebration of the anniversary of American inde- Pendence. THE BRACING. ‘The track was rather slow yesterday, but very fefe. For weeks back it has been tetlock deep in dust, vut the rains of Thursday moistened ita Niue too much, consequently it was too heavy for fast time, The racing was most excellent, and each event passed of with great dclat, notwith- standing some mishaps in the last, Four races ‘were ou the card, the first being a dash of a mile, the second mile heats, the thiru the Jersey Derby and the fourth a steeple chase. The rst race was @ dash ofa mile, with seven to face the starter, comprising Mr. Belmont’s chestnut colt Amadeus, Johu FP, Chamberiin’s bay fly Mary Constant, M. H. Saniord’s brown horse Hingaman, Jon Coffee's gray colt Donnybrook, James Franklin's gray colt Jean Valjean, James McKee & Co.’s chestnut filly Minnie Mac and & D. Kruce’s chestnut colt Galway.

Jean Vajjean then had the cab in the betting, Bingaman being the second choice. Bingaman wen @ capital race very handily. He cut Out the work at the tap of the dram, took the lead at once and was never headed in the race, Mr, Bruce’s Galway came in secoud, much to the surprise of the backers of Jean Valjean, who was third, The winner is a capital race horse, and when not weigated too heavily and the distance not too far, is @ very hard horse He can run mile beats all day, as the reason never to forget. Jean Valjean did not run as good a race a8 Was anticipared from tne high reputation that preceded bis advent in the North; but he may do a great deal better before the meet- ing is over. He ts a noble looking colt, finely formed and seems to run with great ease, but somehow or Other be did not stay as well as Bin- | gaman or Galway, ‘The second race was mile heats, which had five | starters, ‘These were John F. Chamberlin’s bay colt Survivor, Joseph Donahue’s brown colt artist, | John Coffee's brown colt B. F, Carver, James Franklin’s bay mare Arizona, and T. B. & W. R. Davis’ chestnut colt Fadiadeeu, The latter was the favorite over any of the others, Survivor the second chotce,, Arizona being the third in favor, It was @ capital race, and was won by Artist after three heats, Survivor winning the first, Artist the second and third, Alter the second heat Fadladeen, Arizona and B. F, Carver were sent. to the stable. Much interest was shown betweea the second and third neats, Artist selling for first choice in some pools and Survivor in orners, The last heat was & beautuul struggle between the colts from “end to ead,” Artist showing the most bottom at the finish anc winning the race. A race Uke this 18 worth going @ long distance to see. Survivor and Artsst have met three times this scason and Artist has proved the victor twice, Euaysvor has the most speed, Artist the most ottom. The third race was considered the great event o! the day. It was the Jersey Derby. There were | oviginally fifty nominations for this race, out of which number nine came to the post. Tuese were John F, Chambe:lin’s bay colt Visivoth, Dennison & Crawiord’s chestaut colt Rutherford, P, Loril- lard’s brown colt. Saxon, H. P, McGrath's bay colt Aarob Pennington, M. H. Saniord’s bay colt Br ig and, August Belmont's chestuut colt Amadeus, D, D. Withers’ cuestnut colt Macaroon, M. A. Lit- teli’s bay colt Reform, J. Carter Brown’s bay colt Court Hampton. The betting was very even be- tween Brgand, Aaron Pennington and Saxon, the latter naving the cail in a jew of the | last pools sold, Brigand being the second choice and fennington the third. The speculators showed great Sagacity in their knowledge o1 the capabilities of the colts, and they made a slight mistake only between Brigand and Saxon, the lat- ter having beaten the iormer in the Belmont Stakes, & better horse yesterday than he was at Jerome Park, but Mr. Sanford, his owner, thougit he might be ridden a little better, as he thougnt too much use had been made of the colt at the early part of that race. The same opinion prevaticd about Aaron Pennington, and we tirk that both | were correct, Both colts have great speed, but Brigand can stay the longest under pressure. | Saxon, although unsuccessful, ran a capital race, being tn the front rank trom pera, to finish, He isa colt o1 fine staying qualities, with a great share of speed, The fourth race was & steeplechase, with five contestants. Ihese were Joseph Donahue’s team, George West and Tammany; M. A, Littell’s Hen- rietta, George Ayres’ Victor and Lawrence & G. Lorillard’s Bullet, Bullet had the call in many of the pools, Donahue’s two being the second chdice, Henrietta and Victor selling gs a fleld at very low figures, Tiis was a remarkable race throughont, | as both of Mr. Donahue’s horses fell im the race and Victor dislocated his near hind ankle, Gaffney and Tully, the riders oi Tammany and George West, were terribly shaken by their falls, but happily had no behes broken. Before Tully was picked up, after tie tall of lammany, a man, named Carter, mounted the horse and went on with (he race, to beat Henrietta for third mouey (she having fallen in the early part of the race), but Tammany stumbled at the fir.t hurdie he had to jump and fell at the second, and Hen- rietta beat him for third premium. The second rider of Tammuny, like the other, was not much i injured by his tall.

After considerable time had been cut to waste by the tractiousness of Court Hampton, the horses Were sent off from the half-mile pole to avery good Start, Saxon leading, Macaroon second, Aaron Pennington third, Brigand tourth, Reform filth, Rutherturd sixth, Amadeus seventh. Tie positions of the horses changed in some instances on their run arouud the lower turn, and as ihey passed the | three-quarter pole Brigand was leading, Aaron Pennington second, Saxon third, Macaroon fourth, Reform fith, Rutheriurd sixth, Court Hampton seventh, King Amadeus eighth, Visigoth ninth, ‘they rattled merrily up the stretch very close together, the dresses Of the jockeys looking like @ huge bunch of flowers moving towards the stand.

As the trio approached the three-quarter pole Brigand fell back a length under a@ pull fora breath or two. and Saxon and Aaron Pennington ran head and head to the post. As they passed | that pornt Pennington had his bead in tront of Saxon, the latter being one length ahead of Brig- | and. As soo as Pennington and Saxon entered | the homestretch Brigand came for them again, and rushing up to the two in front ot him, soon | brought them both to whip and spur. After a lit- tle more driving Pennington was the first to throw up the sponge, and Saxon and Brigand left him beeten and rushed on to decide which of them Was the best. This did not take lons to decide, however, as Brigand at the drawgate gave Saxon. | the go by, and, conring on gamely, Won the race by two lengths, Saxon three lengths in front of Aaron Pennington, the latter being two lengths tn ad- vauce of Ruthersurd, who was four lengths ahead of Macaroon, Court Hampton sixth, Reform sev- enth, King Amadeus eighth, Visigoth ninth, The time of the first half mile was 643¢ seconds, the Toile from stand to stand 1:50, making the toval 2:44X, The value of the stake was $4,000, PREVIOUS WINNERS OF THE JERSEY DERBY.

The first jump they had was over a wali in iront of | the club house, Victor was first over, Tammauy second, Bullet third, George West iourth, Hen- rietta flith, hey then circled to tie east and jumpec over @ fence into the backstretch of the track, Victor led four jengths, Tammany second, Six lengths atiead of Bullet, the latter being three lengths in advance of George West, who was one length in front of Henrietta. The horses then ran alongside of the stables in| the outer field, and there jumped a fence | without changing positions. They then ran down into @ hollow, aud were out o1 sight for several seconds. When they appeared at the lower end of the backstretch, where they crossed the track | and jamped into the inner field, Victor was lead- ing, gg one A second, George West third, Ballet fourth, Henrietta fifth. The horses then came across the field, ‘lammany going to the front as he approached a hurdle apout midway. Then they jumped a wall near the iuriong pole, Tammauy jeauing one lengta, Victor second, six lengths in advance of George West, Bullet third, Hen- rietta fourth. ‘he latter fell as she | passed over the wall, and was out of the Tace jor some time. As the horses ran from the wall to the water in front of the grand stand Victor showed his nose in front or Tammafiy, and ‘as the two landed after jumping the water Victor | had a trifle the best of it, with gone Wess close | up, Bullet several lengths bebind. Victor led up | through the Geld to the wailin front of the club | house, With Tammany and George West close at | his peels, and he continued to lead across the track | and down the ouver field past the stables. At this time Victor was tour lengths ahead ‘of ‘Tammany, who was tour lengths in front of George West, the iatter being three lengths | abead of fuilet, They then passed oat of sight, running through the hollow, and when they appeared again at the foot of the back streich Tammany was showing the way, Victor second, George West tird, Bullet fourtn, the lat- | ter several lengths behind, As the horses jumped | the hurdle in the middle of the field Victor and | | | Tammany were on even terms, with George West close belind, & dozen lengths in advance of Bullet, George West then dashed to the front, and led over the stone Wall, near the furiong pole, and coming on was tirst over the waterin front of the grand | stand, Victor second, tammany third. They then rushed for the wali in iront of the club house, but as George West went over he struck the top and tumbled over on his head, giving Hughey Gafhey, his rider, a stunning fall, trom which it took him some time to recover. Tai- | many tien dashed after Victor and took the lead | from him, showing the way into the track, but, | jumping a fence, tell heavily, and his rider lay | where he fell toralong time. The horse got up seemingly unhurt. At this moment Bullet mauve hus run, and it was not long before he took sides | with Victor, A hurdle stationed near the half- -mile pole had to be jumped and another | on the homestretch at the drawgate. At the first of these Victor strained | his ankle and fell off badly, Bullet going away from him a dozen lengtiis, und coming ob Won the race by # hundred yards, Victor pulled | up quite Jame at the stand. While chis was going | on & man by the name of Carter mounted Tam- many and started ac full speed jor the tuird prize; but just as he got ander way Henrietta, wno also | had been mounted by her (alien jockey, came alter — him with arush, A’ the hurdle at the hall-mile pole Tammany svumoled again aud pitched his rider on to his neck and then Henrietta passed him. Tarn- | many followed on after the mare until he reached the last hurdie, In jumping over whict he fell } ain and threw his riuar heavily on the ground. | ‘The jockey was not injured, fortunately.

Victor was badly injured in the angle, and if will o¢ A long time rE Be again As the winner came to the | yy" | Uhaa race of any magnitude in American waters. | Ing it to the port hand; thence rans @ steeplechase. Neither Gaffney nor Tulley were seriously injured, And thus closed the first day of the first summer meeting at Monmouth Park. TROTTING IN NEW JERSEY. ‘There was a fine g{ternoon’s sport yesterday on | the new track of the “Geutiemen’s Driving Park | Association of Passaic and Bergen Counties,’ lo- | cated near Hawthorne, in Bergen county, and about three miles !rom Paterson. Mostly in the latter city the gentlemen belong who are most | prominent in the association, which was started | for mutual enjoyment and not so much as a regu- lar public trotting course. There was a iarge | number of people present yesterday afternoon aud the liveliest interest seemed to be manifested, ‘THE FIRST TROT, The first purse was for horses that had never trotted better than 3:20, $75 going to the first, $40 to the second, to the third and $16 to the | fourth; mile Leats, best three in five, to Wagon or & in harness. ‘The following were the entries :— | H.

This pretty little country village, set back a ! Mile or s0 on an arm of Long Island Sound and | nestling like the crystal of a watch between green | hills and wooded slopes that reach to the water’s | edge, was aglow with excitement yesterday morn- ing in anticipation of the sailing of the tirst Corin- THE PREPARATIONS, Shortly after daybreak the dock off which sev- eral of the racing craft were anchored was lively with the hum of eager expectation, | while from the mppjing waters came the commands of the owners who were preparing for the event, | The morning was of the most magnificent des- | cription, but uniortunately there was hardly a | breath of wind. In the early morning light feecy clouds bung low in the sky, and some more Weatherwise than others said there would be wind enough. But when the East Opened on Neptune with its fair, bright beams, ‘Turning into yellow gold his salt, green streams, there was a dead calm, and the hopes of tne am- bitious yachtsmen sank within them, as they de- | sired a breeze to carry them along to success, About ten o‘clock Commodore Swan was pulied up to the dock, when he placed on board his tidy | schooner Ariel several gentiemen and four re- porters, and then endeavored to reach the buoy off Centre Isiand, where his boat was to anchor as the stake; but so lignt was the air it required two | hours or more to run the distance ot four or five miles. Accompanying the Ariel in the drilt out to | the starting point was the pretty Idier, Rear Ad- | Miral Cojgate, mgged up with awnings, uoder | which there were several ladies anxious to wit- ess the race, whose cheery Jaughter made it leasant to ali within hearing. Then the Vindex, | ‘sion, Addie, Alert, Ida and Qui Vive up anchor | httle Ki | whistles greeting favorite yacits. 8 In the early morning the sky was | out of the harbor tn the Ngnt air ana tde, Here she found the Kaiser Withee aug Her | ena ready for the contest; the John S. Gage with- drawn at the eleventh hour; the steam yacht Julia and all over tne deep and grand Sound were Cpe crait of every description out from the | Long Island and Connecticut shores, awaiting the | contest. A beautiful breeze set in from the west. | northwest about hali-past two o'clock, and to the joy of the gentlemen sailors, gare indications of increasing. The tide was the | | Tater. Triton.

Ali along the stretch it was observed that the saucy | iser led the van and turned that mark tn | advance, and sailing so well that many were sur- prised and a few, more enthusiastic, hated ver as the possible winner, forgetting that if the wind held the larger boats, with excelient reputatious, | now behind her, would in the reaching breeze make it very lively for ner. The others went around the buoy in nearly the same | long board to the Connecticut shore, and then, tacking sip again for Long Island, stood down in | the strength of the tide for the stake boat at Ship- | en Point, where the Ariel had run once to take | ime. As the most weatherly vesseis drew near | this mark the many spectators scattered upon | the decks of the several surrounding vessels out to see the race were greatly excited, and it was | noted that the straggie up to this rte raatie pene ot the contest was between the Vision and Adate, bowling Sere under the Long Island shore, and the Kaiser. The Vision was compelled to make another short tack before weathering the mark, and here the Katser beat her, a8 she did not alter her course, and, swinging about like a teetotum, went by it in advance, the performance being con- sidered capital by all beholders and a fine bit of nautical work. The time of turning of those taken at tbls point is as follows :— MARK AT SHUPPEN POINT. Kaiser Wilhe]m Vision.

The yachts passed the line in this order—Vision, Addie, Vindex, Kaiser Wil- helm, Qui Vive and Helena (not timed). ‘The ida | withdrew from the race before reaching Katon’s Neck, having carried away her topmast, and the Alert followed her example aiter passing Shippen Point, considering her chances hopeless.

One item of American news transmitted yestet> day from Washington is of a kind to excite special imterest In England, It is to the effect that Mr. Benjamtt Moran, the Secretary of the United States Legation in London, has been appointed Third Assistant Secretary 01 State, and that the appointment has been confirmed by the Senave. in London during the last ten eventful years it would ba dificult to name one Whose advancement will ve | more heartily welcomed, or whose loss to Engliste society will at the same time be more generally re+ gretted. How admirably, and yet wnobrrusively, he, performed his duties, the chie!3 of our Foreign OMce, past and present will bear hearty witness; and this merit 1s ail the more conspicuous because diplomatic controversies were of a very gr character. No incident in the dispate arising fr the right of search, which Jed mp to the war of 181! between England and the United states, had mor serious clemvats of trouble than the involved! transaction now bappily known only in a hise torical sense as the Alabama difficuity. Through« out many of the episoaes connected with this mats ter the negotiations were really in Mr. Moran's hands; tn ail he took @ leading pari, U not ag @ ne gotiator, at least as the trusted adviser of bis gov: ernment, A large share of the success whi happily attended — the: may, without doubt, Moran, whose tavt, i . thorough knowledge of the English people and the Court to which he Was accredited carried hing safely over complications that were otherwise sumciently embarrassing, It 1s gratifying to find that these good qualities, accompanying an entire devotion to the interests of bis native couutry, aro ampiy recognized at Washington; and the apper+ most feeling among Englishmen will be the hope that his successor witl follow the same course and attain the reward of @ Uke substantial and welle merited popularity, ART NOTE, ‘The Hon, Lewis Wingfeld has started for Bougos mont, Belgium, for the purpose of fnisting the dee tails of a large picture, “Tne Day After (he Battle of Waterloo,’? pon which he has been engaged for eight months, The picture {s intended for subs myjasion ta the Reval soadamy authoriues In 1876
