8 NEW YORK HERALD, THUKSDAY, AUGUST 27, 1874.-TRIPLE SHEET. MONMOUTH PARK.| > Extra Race Mesting. A Fine Day and Fair At- tendance. First Day THREE CAPITAL RACES. The Warminster Filly, Ida Wells and Bullet the Winners. | Lone BRANCH, August 26, 1874. The opening day of the Monmouth Fark August meeting is all that the lovers of good racing could | fesire. The weather is magnificent, the sky clear, with a bright, warm sunshine tempered by a brac- | ing sea breeze. Many of the best horses in the country are here, the arrivais continuing up to this | morning, and the “crack” stabies are nearly all represented. The steady increase in the attend. | ance year a{ter year shows that the patrons of the | burfare beginning to appreciate the advantages of | the Jersey track, both on its merits as @ race | course and by reason of its proximity to two great tities, and its easiness of access. HE OUTPOURING FROM NEW YORK AND PHTLA- DELPHIA. Not that the number of visitors is not already jarge. The trains yesterday aiternoon brought Aown 2 fair supply of new faces, which are to-day yurnea toward the races. Many persons who came fown yesterday mcrning to witness the great ocean swimming match remained over for tne Monmouth Park meeting. Since eleven o'clock | w-day the cliff road has presented a moving pano- rama of vehicles bound to the races from the various places down the beach below Long Branch. fhe early trains have arrived tolerably well loaded with passengers, so that there is a crowd sufficient | bo make @ lively show at the track, leaving out of | the account the additions that will be made by | the special trains from New York and Philadel- | pbia which land their passengers at the gates of | Monmouth Park, and the loads that will be sup- plied from the neigttboring villages. But for all ‘hia the Jersey race course is yet in its iniancy, | head bad in all human probability the time will come | when thousands will be gathered where hundreas Bre aasembied to-day. THE AQTRACTIONS OF MONMOUTH PARK. Monmouth Park races will then become the yaces for the multitude. Jerome Park must al- ways bear its aristocratic character and remain the Ascot of America, notwithstanding its loca- fon. On its grand stand will always be found the “blood and the wealth of the metropolis, and its exclusiveness will be | sacnedly matntained. But to Menmouth Park will | @eck the mechanic, the clerk, the artisan and the “bone and sinew” of the city, as the toiling masses are designated. For the races are not the only attractions of the locality. United witn the inducement of witnessing good sport on the track is the advantage of enjoying a fine sea breeze for six or seven hours, with a healthful in the:surffor such as may desire it, and the unity to obtain a glance at watering place ‘So that it is not out of place to set down the jouth Park races as still in their infancy, or to predict for them, ata not very distant day, a wth thac will astonish the originators o1 the Baverprise. THE FAVORABLE WEA’ ‘The weather to-day is just the for the rses, both on the road and over the track. There just enough wind to keep them como! cool, | without being sufiicient to interfere with the racing or to make it unpleasant for the company.

Anumber of rifemen practised at Creedmoor yesterday. The distances were 800, 900 and 1,000 yards, fifteen shots at each, the same as the terms of the International Rife Match require. The ‘weather was favorable, ana the shooting a fair average. Lieutenant A. Anderson, of New Jersey, ‘Who usually makes a good score, retired yesterday after shooting at 800 yards, his cartridges having been changed, which caused bad shooting. There will be more or less shooting at the long ranges every week until next month, when the interna- | tlonal match will take place. Members of regimental teams, who are not members of the National Rifle Association, are Hotified that they are not entitled to use the range except when ordered out in their regiments, Namen Yards. —_—— Scores,-—-—.

Taese same men who lay on the green grass or lounged upon the piazzas balled from various sections of the country. It was not | the amateurs of New York state and New York | city who were there to row a race on the waters | of a New York lake. No, it was more than that, for the invitation to contest for the prizes pro- vided by the Saratoga Rowing Association was ex- tended not only to the amateur oarsmen o! the | United States, but to those of the Dominion of Canada. The response was worthy of the occasion. ‘The men of the South were among the first to reply to the invitation from the North; the West, eager to show their strength and vigor, also replied promptly; the New England States were also ready with their representatives, and Canada was wiluing to send one of her Lambs. New York city has among her representatives a crew trom the club which was not airaid to beard the lion in his den, and endeavor to elevate rowing by an American victory on the waters of the fa- mous old Thames, and although the Ata- lantas falled they still deserve credit for their pluck. It will be seen that so far as the United States is concerned the men who ‘will enter into the contests on Friday, Saturday and Monday next will form the best representetives of amateur oarsmanship which have ever been brought together on the water. The men from Georgia, South Carolina and Virginia will do bat- Ue tor the South; those from Illinois, Michigan and Ohio will endeavor to show what the mer who “go West’ can do; the men of Maine will show what etuff they are made of; Penpsylvania will en- Geavor to sustain its record of last year on these same waters; the capital of the country as well -as the metropolis of tho nation have also their ‘men, and Toronto wil! no doubt do its level best, through her representatives, to secure another victory as @ companion ior the success of last year.

Prominent among the men who gathered yester- day at Moon’s waiting for “their places” might be seen the stalwart form of old Josh Ward; and although Josh was not waiting for a place—for that he has won, and nobly won, too—nhe still loves ‘to be around among “the boys,” as he calis them. “{’m done, Doc.,”” answered the veteran, in pepe, to a question of Dr. Withers, the Atalanta stroke, “Yes, I’ve had ali I want of it, unless — “Well.” questioned the Doctor, with a good- natured smile, ‘unless what ?” “Well,” said Josh, thrusting his hands deeper into his breeches pockets aud paying off his.head | | tothe starboard unull nis eyes became fixed on | the tops of the trees, “unless they think at the other side that we can’t row here, and are willing to make a test of it.”” “They do, Josh. “Well, then, I’m going to get inté my boat n. | ““I thought 80, old man,” said “Doc,” and rising | from is seat, he startea down towards the shore | pe rsne lake and prepared to take bis evening’s PulTHE RIVALS FOR THE STATS CHAMPIONSHIP.
