AMERICAN JOCKEY CLUB. Racing at Jerome) Park. FIRST DAY OF THE AUTUMN MEETING. Beauty and Fashion at the Course. Five Exciting Races—Scenes Inside and Outside of the Course. Mattie A, Aristides, Patience, Piccolo and Josie B. the Winners. ‘The opening day of the autumn season at Jerome Park was memorable even as an example of our Octo- ber weather, The heavy clouds and the fitful rains of the day preceding led us to look anxiously at the weather report, and to dwell with some trepidation upon the printed intimation that there would be ‘local areas of rain’? Even the unrelenting weather prophet could not find it in his heart to spoil the auspicious aay. We had sunshine and fresh breezes and gray, cooling skies. It was a day when all nature seemed to invite mankind to come and rejoice in its fulness * and its beauty, The 2d of October is almost too carly for the return of those of our people who, trom year to year, have grown into the habit of lingering in the country during the autumn weather. This is one reason why the gathering was not so representative inf its character as were the spring meetings and as we shall find them later in the season. We have had so much life and sunshine in the past few days that we can well understand why our people prefer the seaside and forest and watering places to the hard, narrow con- ditions of city life, But there were many of the old faces and many new faces, which made the terraced sward around the club house a picnic scene—the greet- mgs and merriment, the renewal of suspended inter- course, the summing up of the summer vacation, dowa- ger reciting to dowager the victories of Snratoga, and beau discussing with beau the achievements in Paris and at the German springs. This is asocial aspect of the autumn meeting which makes the occasion one of more ‘than usual interest, The long summer is over, Denizens of | the metropolis who have been careering over sea and continent, climbing the Alps or ascending the Yosom- ite, mounting guard over the parlors of Saratoga or sauntering the idle hours away on the boulevards, all assemble, as it were, fora hearty greeting before be- ginning the metropolitan winter season, There was a brownness of feature, a freshness of countenance and @ heightened color on the cheek and an activity in the movement and conversation, a sense of health and vivacity, which showed in pleasant contrast with the ennui and the pallor and the weariness overspreading | such a company ata spring concourse, the winter over | and the enervating days at hand, the weary tasks done and all anxious fora summer respite by the forest or sea, The ride from New York to Jerome Park is noble in every respect, We see the greatness of our growing city, which not even the imbecility of one set of rulers or the corruption of another can destroy. The boule- vards that sweep out from Central Park were studded with quickly driven equipages, and the grounds around the race course outside the gates contained a larger crowd than that within, The company within the gates were decorous and composed and under restraint, without those outdoor scenes which form so pleasant a feature of the races on the Continent. There is a rocky | cliff formed by the excavation to make the boulevard } Course the grand stand, the club house and the quar- ; Leander fourth, Mattie A. fifth, Fleetwood which overlooks the race track. Here, massed | during the whole afternoon, was a multitude, The pie man drove a busy trade; the ever- present oysterman was industriously proclaiming * his desire to feed the hungry, and an ambitious eatercr ‘established a chowder boiler, from which he dispensed, from time to time, dishes of unsavory food. There were all manner of vehicles, from the splendid drag of the city millionnaire to the plain farmer’s wagon stained with fruit and grain. As if to make the strong- est contrast to the eagerness and buoyancy and excite- ment of this multitude, there was a hearse which had returned from Woodlawn Cemetery, having performed its sad duty, whose driver could not pass beyond the enticing track. There were the gamblers, playing Spanish monte, surrounded by excitable groups, mainly of laborers, black and white, who threw down their small fragments of fractional cur- rency in the hope to win the petty stake. What we noticed mainly about the meeting was the repose which overspread the assembly, Why does not some observer like Charles Lamb give us apa- per on the ‘philosophy of crowds ?”? A crowd has its representative features as much as a man Tho character of a people is never so well secn as in the behavior of its mobs. Ifthis had been an English as. sembly there would have been hustling, buffeting, rough horse play and an occasionai boxing match. If it had been a French crowd there would have been an eager, buzzing ripple of conversation and gallantry, full of movement ‘and sprightliness, caring for everything but the race, But the American crowd is more sober than any on the Con- tinent. It was this sobriety, this calmness, which we always see in American multitudes, even when under high stress of excitement, that led as keen an observer as Thomas Hughes tosay that the Americans were a “gad people; that they looked tired and overworked.” Something of this criticism might have occurred to the observer at Jerome Park yesterday, but the manly in- terest in the great sport and the pride which we nata- rally feel in the dexterity, the swiftness, the courage and the driving eagerness of the noble steed found ex- pression in cheer after cheer when the crisis of each race was at haud, There are some improvements which might be made Mm the approaches to the Jerome Park. In the first place the railroad accommodations are imperfect. If Commodore Vanderbilt were to run a switch from Ford- ham or Spuyten Duyvil station, so as to touch the boundary of Jerome Park, it would add largely to the concourse on these festival days and be a great benefit to the people, Special trains might be run from Forty- second street depot to Jerome Park in half an hour, and if it were understood that on great days these trains would run at intervals of a quarter of an hour or twenty minutes, in time we might encourage our people to attend in as large numbers as at Long Champs or the Derby. Then the roaas to Central Park might be improved, The ride from Macomb’s Dam to Jerome Park is hard on the horses on a day like yester- day. The roadway 1s soft, and, while it_is for equestrians and thoaé who have trott wagons, it is impoasible for the drivers of heavy teams or drags or carriages to make any comfortable “speed. Now, if the boulevards were arranged like the avenue of the Champs Elysees, for instance, with a macadamized road in the centre and the ordi- nary track on either side, it would accommodate all classes and make the driving easier in every way, ‘What we need to perfect the approach to Jerome Park and to make the upper part of our island convenient not only on racing days but on ordinary occasions is to make a macadamized road from Waahington Square to Central Park, and to continue it through the mid- dle of the Boulevard from there to Jerome Park, This would give a drive unequalled by any otber in the world. While wo are criticising this subject it might be well also to refer to the babit of sweeping Fifth avenue and the streets be- yond the Park, This is done in the best spirit, but the result is that on the mornings of the races—as was the case yesterday, for instance—these streets aro as bright ‘as a pin and clean asa courtyard, smooth, slippery, shiny, and the horses have no footing, nothing which their hoofs can grasp, Consequently driving is dan- gerous, Now, we appreciate the diligence which leads to shis over-cleaning of the streets, but at the same time we think it would be well to leave some dirt on the surface of the avenues to enable horsemen to drive along without fearing every minute that their horses will slip and injure themselves. Another thought occurred to us, which we submit for the consideration of those who control the Jerome Park. Why should not the race track be thrown open to the people, likg the grgat races in Durope?

A crowd has orderly tendencies, Its first in- stinet Is to see fair play, and the police service which is necessary to preserve order within the grounds would have scarcely to be enlarged to manage any possible multitude around the track.

McLaughlin’s bay colt Fleetwood, 4 years old, carrying 108 Ibs; James Thompson’s chestnut filly Emma, 4 years old, 105 Ibs.; P. Lorillard’s chagtnut filly Spring- let, 8 years old, 85 Ibs.; D. D, Withers’ imported bay filly Tattoo, 3 years old, 85 Ibs.; George L, Lorillard’s Post’s chestnut colt L, L., 3 years old, 95 lbs; J. ‘A. Grinstead’s bay filly Gilliflower! 8 years old, 85 Ibs. ; D, McDaniet’s chestnut filly Mattie A., 3 years old, 92 lbs., and* Georg® Langstafs black colt Rhadamanthus, B years old, 95 lbs. Mattie A. wag the favorite. The latter won the race yery handily in pretty fair time, Springlet second, Rhadamantbus third. The winner is a finely proportioned filly, of good size, has a remark- ably long stride, and is considered one of the best three- year-olds in America. She has been beaten twice this time In the Maryland Stakes, and again in the Ladies’ Stakes; but at the same meeting at Jerome Park she won two races in one day, each time beating good fields. Mattfe A. and Olitipa meet again on Tuesday next in the Hunter’s Stakes, when a great race may be looked for, aad we predict that one of them will be the winner of the stakes. The second race was for the Jerome Stakes for three- year-olds, two miles, which closed with forty-six nomi- nations, eight of the number only coming to the post, These were D. McDaniel’s chestnut colt Jo. Cerns, H. P. McGrath’s chestnut colt Aristides and brown colt Calvin, John M. Harney’s brown colt Ozark, Charles Reed’s bay colt Rambler, E. A. Clabaugh’s bay colt Via- tor, W. H. Chamberlin’s bay colt Tom Ochiltree and John O’Donnell’s chestnutcolt Milner. McGrath's entries were the favorites, Milner second choice, Ozark third, McGrath's team landed first and second, Aristides lead- ing. The winner is a chestnut with a large star in the hind; is 153g hands high, with @ beautiful head and neck, well set, oblique shoulders, excellent body, good, strong wide bijg and superior legs and feet. He has won sey- eral important races for his owner, and, no doubt, will win more before snow falls, The Nursery Stakes, for two-year-olds, had seven starters, out of thirty-nine entries. These were A, Bel- mont’s bay filly Dauntless and his brown filly Patience; P. Lorillard’s bay gelding Cyril, John M. Harncy’s | brown colt Fredericktown, G. L. Lorillard’s brown colt Ambush and ,his chestnut colt Sunburst. P. Loril- lard’s team were the favorites, at long odds, over the field, The race, however, was won by Mr, Belmont’s imported filly Patience, Mr, G. L. Lorillard’s Sunburst second, and Mr, Belmont’s imported filly Dauntless third, ’ Merciless quit on the homestretch, and landed fourth showing the way for three-quarters of a mile, Patience, the winner, 18 an imported tilly by Parmesan, dam Patronage; 18 14% hands high, brown, ith black points, and a fow white hairs in her fore: | ig ‘as pretty as @ picture,” and can run | bt fast Manhattan Handicap Mad soven stafters. These were A. H. Torrance’s chestnut colt Woodfield, 4 years old, 98 lbs. ; KB. A. Clabaugh’s bay colt Piccolo, 4 Years aid 92 lbs; D. McDaniel & Co.’s chestnut colt furke, 3 years old, 04 Ibs., and chestnut filly Madge, 4 years, 112 Ibs.: P.'Lorillard’s bay colt Vassal, 3 years old, 95 Ibs.; W. R. Babcock’s black colt Vanderbilt, 4 years old, 102 Iba., and H. P. McGrath's brown colt Cal- Vin, 3 years old, 100 Ibs. ‘The latter was the favorite. | He was, unfortunately, cut down in the contest, and the race won by Piccolo, The mischief to Calvin occurred | in that part of the track where neither the judges nor the reporters can see what is going ou, and We have be- fore called attention to the necessity of having a judge placed at the half-mile pole, so that horses would not be interfered with by malicious jockeys, Horses have been jumped on often at this part of the course time and again, and as there was no way. of convicting the jockeys who were guilty they escaped, asthe boy did yesterday who ran his horse on Calvin's leg, and has probably injured the animal for life. Willie Burke was the horse that jumped on Calvin, and not Madge, | as agentieman who was near the spot where the mis- blame the rider of Willie Burke, as he says the lad could not have avoided it, The gentleman says that | Swim, after getting clear of Willie Burke and Vassal Just ad they passed the half-mile pole, pulled Calvin ‘across the track to take the pole as they’ wheeled to the left for the lower turn, and that Willie Burke could not help jumping on Calvin's leg. Madge was at this time four lengths at least behind Calvin, as she was in the rear of Piccolo, who was two lengths behind both Willie Barke and Vassal. Dr. Cattanack was on the ground and he dressed the wound of the injured colt, and he gave it as his opinion that as the tendon was not entirely severed, it may knit together and get well in time, but that Calvin's racing carcer is probably over forever. The loss of this colt is a serious one to Mr. McGrath, as he certainly was the fastest one in his stable, Once more we urge upon the stewards of the American Jockey Club to place a judge at the half-mile pole on the bend around the hillon which stands the |, club hagas, ‘The fifth and last event was a selling race, with the ‘usual allowances for low prices. ere were nine starters, consisting of Thomas C, McLaughlin’s bay colt Fleetwood, 4 years old, to be sold for $800, carry- ing 96 Ibs.; P.

Viator had the lead at the start, Jo Cerns second, Aristides third, Ozark fourth, Calvin fifth, Tom Ochil- tree sixth, Milner seventh, Rambler eighth’ When the colts reached the quarter pole, after changing their jtions on the upper turn a few times, Ozark was leading, Jo Cerns second, Calvin third, Aristides fourth, Viator fifth, Rambler sixth, Milher seventh and Tom Ochiltree’ eighth. The horses ran around the bluff in this order and passed out of sight. When they appeared again Ozark was still showing the way, with Calvin second, Viator third, the others in a group. The colts ran around the lower turn in the order given and with very little change except by the rearguard until the leaders entered the homestretch. After a brisk gallop up the stretch Ozark led under the wire at the stand a length in front of Calvin, Viator third, Rambler fourth, Aristides fifth, Milner sixth, Jo Cerng seventh, Tom Ochiltree eighth,’ Time of the first mile, 1:01. ‘Going around the upper turn Calvin burst forth and took tho lead by two lengths to the quarter pole, Ozark second, Viator third, Aristides fourth, Jo Cerns fifth, ‘Rambler sixth, Milner seventh, Tom Ochiltree eighth. As the colts passed down under the bluff Calvin led two lengths, Ozark second, Aristides third, Jo Cerns fourth, Milner filth, Viator ‘sixth, Tom Ochiltree seventh, Rambler eighth, In this manner they passed out of view around the hill, When they appeared again Calvin was leading halt a length, Aristides second, half a length in front of Ozark; Jo Cerns fourth, and then several lengths be- hind came Milner, Viator, Tom Ochiltree and Rambler, It was then evident that the race lay between Mo- Grath’s two, Ozark and Jo Cerns, the others being beaten while a quarter of a mile from home. On they came into the homestretch, Calvin leading, Aristides second, Ozark third, Jo Corns close up and running strong and formidable; but Calvin was under a strong pull, and he allowed Aristides to take the lead at the furlong pole, and the two galloped home in hand, Aristides winning’ by balf a length, Calvin a ‘length in front of Jo Cerns, who was half a length in advance of Ozark. Milner was fifth, Tom Ochiltree sixth, Rambler seventh, Viator eighth, The last mile was run in 1:62, and ‘the two miles in 3:43, Viator pulled up lame, and it was said that he had broken down in the race.

SHE DROPS IN A RACE AT ELMIRA AND EX- PIRES WITHOUT A STRUGGLE, Enanra, N. ¥., Oct, 2, 1875, The famous trotting mare American Girl fell dead this afternoon in the first heat of the ‘free for all”? race, on the Elmira Driving Park, She was driven by John L, Doty and appeared at the start to be in the very best condition. The horses were scored a num- ber of times before they got the word. ‘The Girl at the first turn was well in front, but here her driver noticed that she seemed to be giving out and let her head loose, She kept staggering for an eighth of a mile, and at the quarter pole fell and died instantly without a struggle, She dropped to the ground very easily, with her shoulder against the fence. The inci- dent excited a great deal of sympathy, as the mare was a favorite here, and had been the chief attraction for the races to-day. A singular circumstance in the matter was that from tho grand stand a rainbow could be seen, the end of which appeared as if it fell upon the head of the dying horse, ‘The band played a funeral dirge as Soon as the death was made kuown. American Girl was owned by William Lovell, of New York, and was valued at $25,000, which sum had been offered for her only last week. Ben Mace, it is said, was this morning willing to give $20,000 tor her, which sum was refused. She was a handsome bay, with Diack points, by Caxsius M. Clay, Jr., and thirteen | years old, Her races have been without number, and, when in condition, she was always dangerous to the best, and not until within a few years did she have any superior. Of quite fine form and sixtecn hands high, the Girl always commanded attention. For a long time she has been troubled with spavin, but bemg re- | peatedly fired and blistered, it was thought that this yoar she was as good as ever. The turf, in the death of the Girl, loses one of its best performers. The kimira Driving Park Association propose, should the body be left here, to erect a $1,000 monu: | ment to tho memory of American Girl.’ There was no insurance on the mare, ROWING AT BERGEN POINT. eaapeenengee ait FALL REGATRA OF THE ABGONAUTA ASSOCIA- ‘TION. Had it not been for the exceeding roughness of the Jersey Kills yesterday afternoon the tall regatta of the Argonauta Rowing Association would have been fully as brilliant as the previous one, held during the month ofJuly. Those who bad the management of the affair displayed the same admirable wisdom in selecting the various crews, and, rough as the water was, with scarcely an exception, the races were very closely contested. A LARGE CROWD, The balconies of the club house were crowded with ladies and gentlemen, the interior of the little struc- ture being gayly trimmed with flowers, The large hotel which overlooks the Bay was also filled with spectators, andthe dust along the smooth, roadway which runs from one end of the course to the other was disturbed by many rapidly revolving wheels. The course was from above the boathouse to} stakeboat and return, distance, two miles, THE FIRST RACER j was for pair-oared shells, between the following contes- tants:—W. T. Taylor, bow, and J. F. Ward, stroke; colors, red, and M. A. Phillips, bow, and Smith, stroke; colors, white. Both boats got away in very good ‘form, ‘but the water was so exceedingly Tough that it appeared to be a matter of doubt whether tho shells would be able to get over the course. The red took the lead at the first quarter, but the white “shook up” a little spurt and It was evident, ‘however, that the white bad the roughest part of the course, and that their boat was slowly sinking. Hence it was that when the boats turned the stake and pointed toward home white was fully twenty lengths behind. Red won the race easily by at least thirty lengths, but their victory js partially accounted for by the fact that Smith and house found their shell so full Of water that they were compelled to wade ashore. No time was taken, THE SECOND RACE was for four-oared gigs, the following gentlemen com- prising the two crews :—L. D, Hyatt, E. A. 8. Man, 8. B. Trask, 8. 8. Zabriskie, stroke, H. Meigs, Jr., cox: swain; color, white, A. P.'Vreedenburg, E.R, Craft, J. A. Lodwick, R. H, Jackson, stroke, Ed. Smith, Coxswain; color, red, The two crews were exceedingly well matched, and as they shot off at the word it was evident that the race would be an exceedingly close one. Both boats were abreast as the boathouse was reached, when, Zabriskie of the whites broke an oar, and the two crews were called to row the race over again, At the second trial the contest was intensely even and exciting, but Smith, of the reds, as the stakeboat was reached forged about one length ahead. His crew made an awkward tu) however, and white was around and on her way home first. Smith put his men down to their mettle, and easily gained the distance lost. All the way home the race ‘was very close, neither crew being able to gain any marked advantage over the other. Smith’s crew, how- ever, was about one-quarter of a length ahead as tho boathouse was passed, and, owing to the fact that the bow in the other boat caught a crab, won the race by several lengths, THE THIRD RACE was for four-oared shells. The following were the crews:—Heavy Weights—E. L. Gunther, bow, BR. Craft, M. G. Cavalli; William Gwynne, stroke; color, red. Light Weights—James McNider, bow, P. E. pat lard, E. R. Peck, G. £, Man, stroke; color, white. The “Hight weights’ had a regular “walk over” in their race and won easily by several lengths, THE LAST RACE was the groat one of the afloridon. The following were the crews:—Four-oared shells—Edward Smith, bow; J. F. Ward, N. W. Trask, Walter Man, stroke; color, white, W. 1. Taylor, bow; J. A. Walker, B. Stephenson, M. A. Phillips, stroke; color, red, ‘The race from the start seemed in {i of the red, and down to the stakeboat wi intensely close and exciting, Red rounded the stake- boat first, but white speedily caught up to them, lapped and passed them amid great applause, ‘Still sere was upon nearing home scarcely a boat length between them, when red’s stroke, Mr. Phillips, Purse $400; the winner to be sold at auction; horses FALL YACHTING. THE BROOKLYN CLUB WINDING UP ITS RACING YEAR—THE COMET, UNDINE, LIZZIE L. AND VICTORIA THE WINNERS, ‘The annual fall regatta of the Brooklyn Yacht Club was sailed yesterday, and in many respects can be pro- nounced a pleasing success, The entries, it is true, | were far from numerous, but then the wind and weather could not have been improved upon, while the time made by even the slowest of the boats was excel- lent, More than ordinary interest was manifested in the occasion by the members generally, owing to the fact that the winding up of the racing year was coinci- dent with the opening of their new club house on Gravesend Bay. The march of improvement would soon have driven them from the foot of Court street, and to | be fully prepared for the summons the club had con- structed during the past summer commodious quarters near the late residence of ex-Mayor Gunther, below Bath, L. 1. It is easy of access and in good time will be a general resort for the members. Had not the “Kane” regatta of the New York Club on Thursday been unexampled in the number of its disasters the programme of yesterday's reunion would have called out a large fleet of boats. As it was there were bat ten on hand to finish the season, and one of the schooners not desiring to compete for the prizes of its class left the Comet to go over the course without an opponent. The third class sloops also had but a single entry, so the race was really narrowed down to the first and second class sloops. These were very evenly matched in point of speed, which kept every member busy speculating as to the probable victors un- til the decisions were announced. ‘It had been in- tended that the course should be from the club house to the Southwest Spit buoy No. 10, and thence to Gedney Channel buoy and return; but this was changed, the Spit being made the outer end of the run, The number of small boats in the list of starters and the desire to finish early caused the judges to reduce | the distance to be sailed, making it fifteen nautical miles instead of twenty-five. The following were the entries :— Name. Owner. Area Sq, Ft. Comet, -Wm. H. Langloy.... 1, Siren... dr. Morrow... not measured, ¥IRST CLASS SLOOPS, ohn B. Norris... George F. Randolph. William M.

D. waa 0 The judges, Messrs. Charles Hall and William Bishop, found the steam yacht Amsterdam placed at their dis- posal, and Mr. Blood’s sloop Libbie B. being anchored asa stakeboat and dressed for the occasion, the first whistle at 1b. 30m. directed the yachts to get ready. Meanwhile the schooner Resolute had run down from off Stapleton to the anchorage, and the Siren, retiring from the list of competitors, took on board several ladies who wished to see the race. The wind was fresh from the nor’west, a leading breeze, and the tide the first of the ebb. At 11h. 45m. the second whistle sent them across the line, The Sadie, flying Rear Commodore Davidson's flag, was first to take advantage of getting of. folioved by the Undine, which boat was in excellent shape; then the Kate and the rest immediately after. Tho Resolute got under way just before the Comet crossed the line, and looked saucier than ever. Thoy went away with galopsails set and made good time out of Graves- end Bay, the Sadie leading, the Undine next, Kate third, then the" Lizzie LL, Hope, Sophia, Siren and Comet, the last four in Indian file. ‘Soon the Undine began to eat up to windward, and was fast hunting the stanch Sadie, while the Hope was set- tling the little Flying Cloud, while the Comet all the time was fast working her way to the front rank. Off the hospital ship the wind had freshened, but it came in chunks and made every sailing master well on the alert, Just before noon jibtopsails were run up, and then the yachts heeled so that nota lee deck but was at times well under, The Sophia's topmast, from the strain of her jibtopsail, went over the side at 12h. 6m., and she was practically out of the race. Just one min- ute after a flaw struck the Siren, and before she could be eased her jibboom was snapped, but the wreck was soon cleared, and she continued on, to give the ladies | @ good show of the contest. ‘ithin two miles of the Spit buoy the Undine had passed the Sadie to windward, the Kate being next best of the racers, with the Lizzie L. keeping ae posi- tion and the Hope hanging on to her with great persist- ency. Comet and Resolute hud it nip and wuck all the way out and, taking good care not to interfore with the smaller boats, managed to headreach so upon the former that she was first to turn the Spit buoy, though the Comet on the run home paid back the compliment. | The racing ee ee No, 10 a8 Sind der 112 35 60 Hope.. +12 43 06 12 36 40 Flying Cloud: 12 48 00 Kate...) 12 38 00 Victoria....... Not timed. The course of the ts could be laid back, with the | wind abeam and freshening. Gafftopsails were struck half way across the bay, and still there were puffs that laid the rails of the smaller boats deep in the water, Near- ing Coney Island Point, one of the flaws hit the Sadie, and before she could be eased she was on her side, but soon’ righted, without injury. The in this ‘bold stretch, soon got on comparatively close terms with the Sadie, and at shot by her to windward and beat her to the home stakeboat twenty seconds—quite a victory, considering the Sadic’s great feat on Thursday last in the ‘‘Kane’’ regatta. The Comet picked up sev- eral minutes on the run, as did the Undine, the former leading them all home, while the latter showed the way of her class, and the Lizzie L. to her companions. The finish, official, is as follows :— BOHOONBRS, | MS. WMS. HM S HOM.S, | 15220 13100 13840 13840 | 1 60 20 Did not go course. ‘ FIRST CLASS BLOOPS.

There wore champion pennants for cach, in addition to a patent log for the schooners, During the afternoon the members and their ladies sat down to a subscription dinner, and, a band of music having arrived, the day was brought to a pleasant close. It 1s noteworthy that neither the Commodore’s hor Vice Commodore's yacht were on hand, REGATTA OF THE SEAWANHAKA YACHT CLUB. The fall regatta of the Seawanhaka Yacht Club took place yesterday, The course was from the Narrows, | keeping to the eastward of buoys Nos. 9, 11 and 13, on the West Bank, to and around buoy No. 10, on the | Southwest Spit, leaving it on the port hand; thence to and around buoy No, 83g, on the Southwest Spit, leav- ing it on the port hand; thence to and around the judges’ boat, stationed in the Narrows, at the starting point, leaving iton the starboard hand; thence again over the same course, observing the same rules in all particulars, finishing by passing between the judges’ boat and Fort Wadsworth, The yachts which par- ticipated in the race were as follows :— SCHOONERS, Idler, Ariel. FIRST CLASS SLOOPS, Addie Voorhies, Vindex. SECOND CLASS SLOOPS, bY nega Madcap. Ale: The first signal was given at twenty-seven minutes and fifteen seconds past eleven o’clock to get ready, and | ven minutes later the second whistle from the judges’ | boat gave notice to the yachts to cross the line. They | crossed in the following order:— Fachts, H. M. 8. Yachts, HM, &. 11 88 20 Addie. 1 Ariel. The Vindex, which was expected to take part in the race, for some cause failed to cross the line, but af- terwards accompanied the yachts over a part of the broke an oar, Therace was at once rowed over again, but though from staet to finish the straggle was one ol the tightest ever rowed on the Kills Smith’s crew, the white, won by about three-quarters of a length.

DEFEAT OF ENGLISH CRICKETERS BY AN AMERI+ CAN TEAM. A very large number of persons. assembled yesterday on the St. George’s Cricket Grounds, foot of Eighth street, Hoboken, to witness the game of cricket between twelve Americans and twelve Englishmen. The wicket was a beautiful one, and as the day was fine the scene wag very interesting. The British and American flags floated in the breeze, side by side, on the club house, and on the Knickerbooker Base Ball Club house the St. George’s Cross was hoisted. There was a large number of ladies present, who occupied the tent and watched the game with Interest. The English twelve were all good players, and it seemed as if they would gain an easy victory. Shortly after noon the game com- menced, the Americans under tho leadership of Cap- tain Soutter going to the bat. Messrs. Jenkins and Soutter were the first players against the bowling of Messrs) Marsh and Brewster, Jenkins got the first ball from Marsh, and made a splendid 2 hit, He followed up with six other 2’s during the three first ; overs and then made a single. Soutter also made some good hits, and when Jenkins got caught out by Gilbort had made 6 runs. Satterthwaite followed, but unfortunately was run out, with the score of 3. Hos ford next handled the willow and only made 1 run, when Brewster caught him out, The next man was Cushman, but he was soon disposed of by Bance at “point.” Westfeldt got out leg before wicket, and Ste vens took his place. By this time Soutter had rua up his score to 30, when he was neatly caught by Gilbert, Stevens batted well for 15, and White, the last man, for 9 runs, . After dinner the Englishmen went to the bat, and met with very poor luck, Bance got bowled by one o1 Sprague’s ‘‘underhanders,”? and Gilbert and Brewster got caught out by Satterthwaite. Giles played well tor 7 runs, and the others did nothing. With two byes the score was against 86. The Englishmen then went in on their second inning, and when the game was called at 5:30 had made 37 runs, of which Marsh, by good batting, contributed 15 runs. The fielding was very good throughout. Bance, as usual, was a good point, and Luske and Eyre were both excellent long stops. Westfeldt, on the American side, did good wicket keeping. The bowling of Sprague and Soutter for the Americans, and Jones for the English, was all that could be desired. Captain Sleigh, a Scotch- man, bad command of the Englishmen. The game was a very interesting one, and playea by bona Ade Britishe ers and Americans. The following is the score:— ‘AMERICANS First Inning. Soutter, c. Gilbert, b. Giles..... Jenkins, ¢.
