. RACING AT SARATOGA, A Grand Attendance of Fashion- able People. THREE CAPITAL RACES Attila the Winncr of the Travers Stakes, Epring- bok of the Sweepstakes and Olitipa of the Flash Stakes. SaRatoaa, July 25, 1874. Beautiful weather, superb looking men and | ‘Women, a noble course, horses equal to any year’s stable that ever ran in America. Such was the | expression of the thousands of people who met at | the Saratog. Park to-day. For Saratoga this has been the greatest of al! seasons, and the superior public spirit of the natives and settiers here over ‘the usual drift woieh forms our seaside and spring Fesorts Makes the task an easy one to distance competition. Here are collected pernaps the ablest men in ote! keeping, fleld sports and public catering which the country possesses. Saratoga bas @ li/e and manhood almost as metropolitan as the great city of which it is an emanation, Here A. T. Stewart isa hotel proprietor, and he Probably takes as much interest in bis Saratoga real estate as in any which he hold@tu New York. “fine man to run a hotel,” said the veteran Wasi McLean one day to Mr. Stewart, indicating Breslin, of the Grand Union. “Yes; tine hotel,” said Stewart. “No; but a fine style of proprietor; fon 1” “4 good property,” said the incorrigible mer- ebant. ‘There Is no limit to enterprise of this character — fm the village of Saratoga, One great achieve- | Ment stimulates another. Mr. Stewart proposes thie winter to take down the wing of irame cot- | tages immediately in the rear of the oMce of the | Grand Union and rebulid it of brick in a style to improve the lawn and park up to the arcuitectural Measure of the new United States Hotel, which Is | the colossus of the scason. There presides the | nervous, impetuous Marvin, one of the founders of the village, an ally uf Commodore Vanderbilt | fu the Central Railroad, an anxtous, watchiul | Merchant and no poor politician. Opportunity is everything. This man was brought up around | the village, expanded with the spirit of | the populace which sought out this re- sort, apprehended the possibilities of the Place, yet was conservative and slow to * venrure until the Grand Union, Congress Hall and the Grand Central had been succcesively raised. ‘Then he came to the iront, and on the site of the @reat old United States, of which he was the es- sence and reality, he raised such @ mansion as the puvlic had never geen. Not at Vichy, nor Hom- burg, nor Leamington, nor Brighton is there to be seen a town in one house, lixe this, It is agreat village of itseli, with ite public square, its mercan- tile shops, its opera, its park, its mayor and police. | The indicator in the oMice is the largest ever con- structed, and is the key to this vast range of cot- tages, wings, piazzas and dormitories. Tne figures | as to length of corridor, carpet, bellrope and tele- | graph are too staggering to bear relation, Men who build and superintend such hotels Properly go to Congress, Marvin went twice, | and now Hathorn, his competitor of Congress | Hall, keeps the seat. The people elected Marvin on the strengti of a promise to rebaild the United | States, and removed him tor his tardiness tn the Jultiiment thereo!, They rewarded Hathorn, who had meanwhile gone ahead and, by the appitca- tion of the joint stock principle, lifted the elegant facade and tall pavilions of a new Congress Hall to the gaze. Five years only was the site of that hotel empt, 1 the United States Hotei nine years. The Congress was burned to the ground in May, 1863; the United states in June, 1865. Betweeu the resturation of the two the Lelards, dojuily leading out, and, if with misioriune, yet ol Without record and appreciation, completed the opera house of the Grand Union, and buile tuat veranda which is still regarded as the most elegant in the village of springs. A stiong man came iu and relieved them of the burden, and had no duiticulty in finding young men equal to the re- Sponsibility of keeping the great caravansery. The power of Saratoga is in the equal and mutual spirit of the hotel keepers. They work together; they taboo a gruinbler. “Here,” said a Maryland man to me, “is the only Place Where you cau get something for your honey. Uur Southern springs give you nothing Lut nature forjt. A Saratuga spring chicken is equal to the entre summer's Dill Of fare at ——."" ‘Nor 18 it only architecture tnat telis in the pub- licanism ci this great resert. Tre Clarendon Hotel, unpretending and reaiistic, has held its guesis irom yeur to year, almost trom generation to generation, and it 18 public opinion that to meet goud people one must go to the Clarendon; to Meet handsome ones go to Congress Hall, and to a versatile and Worldly society go to the Jnion. ‘here is no perceptible difference to a cordial stranger among any of these notel keepers, and distinctions neea uot be invidious.

From the bigh quality of the horses engaged this year the racing was highly tnter- esting. The nrst race was the Travera Stakes, which closed with seventy-two nominati eleven of which came to the post. These were Messrs.

But so very littie separated the horses at the Onish that no ope bat those who had their eyes on the wire could tell to a certainty which was in front. The judges undoubtedly were rigat in their decision: and uithougn Steel Eyes did not win the $4,600 and the plate, ne convinced many that be was not only a fas! horse but a stayer us well. Brigand and Stampede also ran excelientiy well.

His backers were warranted in this course by the great performance of Springbok at Utica this season, when he equalled the best time on record for @ mile. viz: 2%.

The Mutaal nine yesterday closed their July games In this city with another victory over the Hartiords, who stil found Matvhews too trouble- some a customer to punish with any effect, The attendance was very smail for a Saturday match. But the fact is, very littic interest Is now taken in the Mutual nine’s contests, for it seems to be the general impression that they can win when they choose to exert their jull powers iu @ united effort, and, a3 itis not known to the patrons of the grounds when tt is they do tis, the crowd haa come to the wise conclusion to stay away from their games altogether unui they can be relied upon for che same iaitnfal work in the fleld as the Bostons. The Mutuais went first to the bat and they scored arun through a dropped fly ball by Pike, a bad throw tn aiso assisting. On the other side not a ran was obtained until the third taning, | when importaat errors by Higham and Matthews, assisted by a hard hit by Pise, led to 3 runs being scored, the Mutuals, in their third inning, hav- jag also scored 2, thereby making their total 3 The game was now equal, and tt began to bo interesting, and asthe iifth mning ended With the score of 8 to 3, a close contest was anticipated to the end. {nthe iast four innings, however, the Hartiords allowed their adversaries to obtain four unearned rung on taree singie base hits, aud as tae Muiuais supported their pitener finely a(ter the third inning the Hartiords were unable to add to tueir score, and the game Snaily terminated tn the success 0; tue Mutuals by 7 to 3.

The Brookiyn Yacht Ciub can have no reason to compiain of the weather thus far on tts cruise, for though the winds have been somewhat Ackle, and now and then jalling dead calm, there has been plenty of sunshine glinting their way, ana the loveliest of moonlight nights have made the waters of the Sound like a sea of moiten silver. When the dainty little Sadie ran into Morris Cove at New | Haven on Thursday night and let go her anchor, as the avant-courier of the fleet, it seemed as if the stagnation which had settled upon some of the yacht clus of the country had extended to this aquatic organization, but happily these feara were groundless, as there are now lying in this pretty haven six schooners and nine sloops, which will leave here on Monday, under Commodore Voorhis, for the eastward.
