SARATOGA RACES Brilliant Attendance and Fine Weather at the Course: Faithless Wins the Flash and McDaniel’s Filly the Selling Stakes. THE SARATOGA CUP. A Dead Heat by Preakness and Springbok. TWO MILES AND A QUARTER IN $M, 56 1-48, SamavoGa, July 29, 1875, The events of to-day, to use a somewnat ambig- nous phrase, commenced last evening. Wuile the devotees of Terpsichore were puying court to his majesty of the light fantastic, and belles and beaux were whirling away the eariy hours of the bight, the pool rooms in the city were at fuil blast, Ha‘dreds of men were speculating with a veal almost unparalleled in the bistory of Sara- toga, At the club house pools were sold to the Amount of $50,000. One pool, of which your readers were informed by telegraph, reached the sum of $5,900. Men were present who did not stop at hundreds, but plunged Into the thousands, One individual sat in §18 place and expended $14,000, Men, excited and nervous, crowved Into the room until it was Billed to saffocation, there bankers of good standing in the commer- cial world, eX-Governors and Senators, and tie features of weil known sporting men were Beattered throughout, At Joluson’s the same excitement prevailed, although the atmosphere was so terrinie in the itttle room that but Jew, notwithstanding their iron cas- Ings iaken trom the springs, could toler- ate it, Of course, the local press of this morning makes the most of the extra rdinary Scenes in these pool rooms, and the consequence ‘was early apparent. At ten o’eiock the whole thoroughfare in front of Congress Hall and the Grand Union was blocked with equipages, glitter- Ing and costly. One by one the carriages drove of, laden with gayly dressed visitors, to the race track, a mile and a quarter distant. The road, as far as the eye could reach in the direction of the course, presented a charming scene. A line of carriages nearly # mile in length, the: showy harness of the horses glittered in the bright sunlight, hundreds of white and blue parasols ‘Were to be seen moving gently to and iro, the gay trappings of the vehicles aud the variegated liv- ery of footmen and coachmen—the whole gave oneanidea of the gay throngs to be scen on a Qne racing day on the road to Jerome Park. AS a member of the turf said this morning, this day comes only once a year, It differs trom the college regatta. It is unlike any other event at the Sprivgs. It is the “Cap Day,” and at Sara- toga Ccp Day is as important in its way as the Cap Day of Gooawood at Ascot. An evidence of the importance attached to it is seen at the entrance to the course as the long string of vehicles files past the gatekeeper. Here at half-past eleven o’clock was apertect semi- circle ol traps reaching from the gate round to the rear of the Jawn and back again to the gate— ® stream of visitors fowing in, a stream of empty Vehicies fowing out. There in the centre of the front jawn stands the Morrissey fountain, spurt- Ingupatiny stream of water, which the evil- woking little effigies on the edge of the basin, with mouths open tothe shoulder, are swallow- ing as thuugn they had been cursed with an eve! lasting thirst. ‘twelve o'clock, The grand stand is crowded to the éxtreme. The scene is magnificent. Ladies Jorm the greater portion of the audience. Rica summer silks rustie the wearers move irom Bide to side, Itis a fleld of brignt colors, and the light sbade entering beneath the roof of the stand, so to speak, mellows the énsemble. There are dresses that the vocabulary of the expert modisie would be sorely taxed to describe ap- positely—sky blue satins, silks in green and biack, costumes im maroon and crimson, yellow | and green—all sparkling and attractive. The sun is shining, and scarcely a cloud inter- venes to break the flerceness of his rays, and even the (iistant landscape is partly nidden, as witha moving mist, only the tops of the hills peeping out into the azure above. Now and again a little breeze fans the features of the spectators, and on the eastern horizon there is a threatening cloud that seems to say “thunder apd asnower.” Grad- ually the neat lawn in front of the stand Is filed up by men of tue turf from all parts o/ the country. A crowd of gentlemen are in front of the Paris Mutuels buying pools, among whom are several noted foreigners and two old wlood horse breeders, wo are discussing the “evonts.” Tue Bpace along the quarterstretch to tne left is filled with carriages, and many of their cecnpants are standing up and turning their fleld gia: in the direction of the grand stand~a courtesy, by the way, Which is being returned with interest by the people in the rear of the reporters’ chars. The open space to the right 1s filled with some three hundred men, who are watching everything at'great disadvantage, and must feel uncomtort- apie irom the heat of Old Sol. Mais personne ne des jugerait séverement pour celta, The track ts In good condition, level, clean, Just dry enoug! to permit of very fast running. People are speculating very ireely. The crowd from the poo! rooms seems to have been emptied im front of the pool .boxes on the lawns, The Judges ring the beli ‘or the firs* horses and horse- men entered for tne Flash stakes to get ready. Up come Parole, Fatthiess, Leatherstocking, Os- seo, Warlock, Pastor, Lillie, Lady Clipper and Unree others, eleven im all, ‘he stand crier yells down the waving fans, the parasols and the standing cavaliers who are acting as descriptive cicerones. The ‘‘youngsters,” as the above eleven were termed, are fractious, They cannot ve got of without difficulty, Start atser start is made, but they\turn again, At jength they startin fair order ‘rom the further end of the fractional track und scamper om on thetr half-mile rap. On they come at rapid rate, There 1s an uproar on the stand, Two of the colts throw théir riders and gallop off after the others, leaving the boys roll- ing im the dust. On comes Faithiess, bearing the Lorillard colors of cherry jacket, black and gold Cassel, beating ner competitors by several lengths. “A general favorite, Faithless has turned to faith- tui,” saya one of her backers as he siides forwara to the judges’ stand across the track. The scene is somewhat marred by the appearance of War- lock’s rider with his arm ina sling, nort quire viously. Next comes the great “event” of the mect- ing, the contest for the Saratoga Oup. There 1s tremendoas excitement as the horses come up to the judges’ stand, There are Wildidle, whose rider is decorated in black and tan; Olitipa, with Maroon jacket and red sash aud cap; Preakness, with dark bluo; Springbok, with blue jacket and red sasi and cap; Rutherford, with orange jacket and cap and red sleeves; Grinstead, with orange Jacket and cap and red slecves; Aaron Pennii ton, with green Jacket and orange sash. Tnere they are, seven in all, prancing and capering like spoiled children, while the jockeys are being weighed. “There isa quarter‘of a million Collars staked on this race,” says a tall gentleman on ihe lawn, The sunis now obscured by thick, feecy clouds at intervals, but it is till very warm. Twenty minutes are spent in making arrange- ments. ‘The head of the Saratoga Association de- ciares that he hi ver seen So many spectators oa the course before, ‘The moving mass in front o/ us is Genser than ever, Many, apparently un- able to get at the pools, are betting freely tween themselves on the lawn. Governor Tilden pmq jig Adintant Gener ‘ Here sat a foreign minister; | NEW YORK HERALD, FRKID veyed (i pear on the scene, and are generally greeted with enthusiasm by those who recognize them. The Governor looks bright and bappy as he moves about amid the crowd, but not robust. The starters arrive at the quarter pole, for tnis con- vest is for three miles and aquarier. So great has the crowd become that many have lew the lawn and crossed over into the steeplechase grounds, where they stand and sitin groups on the turf awaiting the start. me Soon they are ol, and canter almost over the quarter to the stand without mach excitement, black and tan passing the judges’ stand first. As they enter on the first mile the dark blue runs up to the front, @ general cheer is raised, and the murmurs on the stand are loud and- con- tinueus. Passing the stand tne second time biack and tan still held the lead, followed closely by the dark biue. Now they are on the last mile, and the spectators seem for # moment to be struck with extraordinary enthusiasm. ‘+ Preak- ness wins!” ‘Springnok wins!” “Leok at blve ana red!” shonta hundred different voices. They are at the last quarter and flying on to the end; dark biue is overtaken half way between the quarter pole and the finish by blue jacket, red sash aud cap. It i3 a splendid sight. Tue two rush up, with dark blue slignuy in advance. Thou- sands ef cheers greet the riders as they come up, The men on the stand in their enthusiasm forget the ladies and stand up to shout and gesticuiate, | and in turn they are hooted aown by excited per- sons bebind them. (Cries of “Get out! “sit down!” “Put them off!” “Spring- bok wins! “Preakuess wins!”) The steeds scud pass the floishing line and the colored hosilers yell over Springbok as though the animal had performed a miracie, But the leaders went in so close together that the purties most inter- ested are all claiming the victory. Bets are ex- changed over the uncertainty. “A thousand dol- lars to seven hundred and fifty” is offered in favor of the dark blue, The oMcial time 1s marked up and recoras the fact that the two miles anda | quarter have been ron in the remarkable time of ‘4 Alas! for those wo had expected to draw their winnings, The judges declared it ‘a dead heat.” It 1s simply impossible to describe tne scene at this moment, The ladies, delighted with the prospect of seeing an extra race, clap their nands, the men jeer eacn other ironically, tor everybody has been deceived, men clustered nervously vefore the stand, and the “professionals” are simply confounded, “It won't be run over again; “They will divide the money; “No, they can’t divide; the people wou’t have it,” These and other phrases are rapidly bandied about. Four jhousand six hun- dred and thirty-eight poois had been sold in this Face, Our bachelor Governor is now surrounded in front of the standby about fifty {riends—and enemies, politicaily—ana eyed very closely by the belles, many of whom in the front seats recog- nize him for the first time, He was dressed simply, wearing a suit-of summer Kersey biue, white hat and white tle—the very persoutilcation of simplified democracy. The Selling Race is next in order, and nine horses start for the contest of a mile and a quar. | The race 1s won by a horse that is nameless | ver, on the programme, but he is owned by McDaniel, and makes the distance in 2:003¢ seconds, There {s not much enthusiasm over this race and the crowd press over to the judges’ stand to the selling of the winner. A lull occurs and the people ask, “What about the dead heat?’ ‘he Judges decide that it will be better to divide the stakes than run the horses over again, and so the gentlemen having bets will ar- range matters between themselves and the horses were saved the additional struggle that would en- sue in case of a disagreement of the turf author- iues. Altogether this has been a splendid day’s sport; the largest attendance that has ever been seen on the grounds since 2864, and in point of attrac- tion could not be exceeded. In a few minutes the gay throng returned to town and the cup day for 1875 Is over. THE RACING. The track was in most excellent order and fast time was the result. Three imporiant events were on the card; the first, the Flash Stakes, for two-year-olds, a dash of half a mile; tlie secona, the Saratoga Cup, & dash of two miles and 4 quar- ter; the third aseliing race tor @ purse, for all ages, the distancga mile and a quarter.

BRIEF REMARKS ON I1'$ MANAGEMENT. Incidents of the Run from New London to Newport. Newrorr, R.°l., July 29, 1875. The Brooklyn cruise thus far been only ‘30 so.” Though the fleet that rendezvoused at Glen Cove was the largest ever broughs together on such an occasion—comprising eighteen yachts—it bas rapidly dwindied away unt: there is but nalf that number remaining. The reunion thus begun under circumstances exceptionally auspicious and such as the organization have much reasen to be proud of, early received acheek, Many of the yachtsmen became dissatisfed and did not hesi- tate so to express themselves. The “troubie” could have easily been smoothed over, but the officers of distinction did not see fit to look into it immediately, and now any attempt to work a re- concifation would be useless, A yacht club should bea yacht lub and nothing eise, not +) medium of political compliments. Your corde spondent, om Monday last, disclosed the gen- eral dissatisfaction pervading the feet by the visit made to Lioyd’s Harbor in order that Mayor Wickham, of New York, might be called upon. The arrivalof the HeraLp at New London yesterday, containing this reierence, producca A TERRIBLE COMMOTION among the ofMcers responsible for the visit. In half an hour I saw more cross faces and neard more grumbiing, peevish talking and futile scold. ing than before in twelve months. ‘he poor correspondent! Why, what right mad he to do his duty? By what character of reason- mug gid he dare chronicle the truth? The awful anger of the flag officers Wus to be that correspondent’s doum, and at a meeting of captains on bourd the fagsip last night they endeavored to visit their wrath upon his head, First, an attempt was made to | pass resolutions thanking Mayor Wickham for the courtesies extended the fleet. But the resolutions did not pass. Some of the captains Plainly asked what the Mayor nad done to deserve such @ Mark Of the club’s esteem that they should present him with a testimonial. Coaxing would not change their minds, The yachtsmeu who had seen the “ilitle joker” wouldn’t have it, and so the big irame 1s not likely to be presented to His Honor. Another iittie trap was sprung. One of the officers upon whose aquatic toes your corre- spondent stepped when he told of she failure of | the Lioyd’s Harbor recepuon introduced a reso- lution something in this wise :— Be it resolved, That the captains of the yachts now composing the Brooklyn fleet nereby pledge tuemselves not to further extend the courtesies of their boats to the representative of the New Yok Haka, ‘The language oi the resolution was about in this fashion, or, ratner, the mover of it meant to say something like 1t. Report does not clearly advise whether the resoiution passed or not. itis my opinien, however, that it did, inafashion. One or two Oi the particularly grievea of the whole number present Voted ‘aye,”’ and it was aujudged the sense of the meeting. The joke 18 tuo good to | Keep, and I teil it, 1 might mention names and offer some advice to @ few gentlemen who think that gold lace and big gilt butvons make achtsmen or reliable amateur sailors; put time 8 too precious and the subject not Worth toe powder. When the Mayor Wickham business was delicately touched upon, had 1 chosen, more could have been added of the same sort. I contd have enlightened the gentleman upon many otner matters that have produced dissatisiaction tn the fleet, and, m 4 word, tell just Way the cruise is @ iallure, Such it has become without doubt. ‘There is no way of rubbing out the jact. And it snould haye been one of the most spirited and successiul on record, there paving bern the material on baud to make it 60, Nothing that is mow done can make the cruise of 1875 @ genuine success.

The troops assembled in their respective armories at a suMctently early hour to admit of their taking the haif o’clock train from Hunter’s Point to Creedmoor. The men got in front efthe 100 yards butts and completed their scores at this as well as at the 160 yards range @ little after one o'clock, Up to this hour the rain, waicn com- menced failing soon after eleven, was bat light, It mow begaa to fall witm increas- img steadiness, and continued to pour down un- ceasiagly for the rest of the atternoun. But in spite of the drenchingly wet weather, the troops, after & short rest for rations, resumed their posi- tions beiore the targets at about nalf-past two o'clock, Certainly the oMcers and men deserve credit for their steadiness and perseverance tn the performance of duty under tue severe inclemency of the weather wuich tney endured. They were all, of course. wet co the skin Jong before tue prac- tace at the 300 and 400 yards butts was concluded. It is aiMicult to see how the markers were able to correctly signal the shots.
