After the sub-committee adjourned Mr, Knott, approaching Mr. Frye, a member ot the committee, and who has been in attendance as the ad- visory friend of Mr. Blaine, said to him:— “Mr. Frye, your friend Blaine is the God damnedest scoundre! in America.’ This remark or its equivalent having already found its way into print, it should be added that Mr. Frye replied:— “You forget yourself, Mr. Knott” “Yor,” sald Mr, Knott, “I do,” and he thereupon immediately withdrow the romark and apologized for having made it AMERICAN JOCKEY CLUB. THIRD DAY OF THE SPRING MEETING ar JEROME PARK. ‘The racing at Jerome Park this afternoon, from the character of tho eptries for tne several events, should be ofa superior order, and as the track will be in much better condition than on the previous days of tho meeting, faster time may be anticipated. Four races are on the card, the first being the Juvenile Stakes for two-year-olds, « dash of half a mile, which closed with ‘twenty-six nominations of as finely bred youngsters as ever appeared on the American turf. Tho second race will be mile heats, and this will be a good one beyona doubt, judging from theentries, The third race will bo a dash of a mile and a balf, with maiden allowances, and the number of good ones entered for it makes the event a very doubtful one, The closing race will be for three-year-olds, a dash of a mile and ap eighth, with a maiden aliowance of throe pounds. The’ following are a few of tho pool sales at the room of the American Jockey Club last night, which will be interesting to those who intend visiting Jerome Park, as it gives the speculators’ esti- mate of the capabilities of the horses engaged in the sevoral races:— THE JUVENILE sieepuaae A MILE.

In almost every instance the turf prophets seemed to be convinced that Lord Dupplin’s Petrarch must prove tho winner of the great event at Epsom. But ‘Bicys,” of Bell's Life, considered the Mineral coft’s chauces very excellent, and was of the opinion $bat bis stamina was better than Petrarch’s, He says:— Jet me come at once te the peint by stating that I consider the Mineral colt his (Pet 8) most danger- ous adversary. When this youngster, whose name will appear on Wednesday's card, is seen at Epsom, critics will very likely Co aye 4 disappointwent, He has Not the elegance and style of Pet ‘bat is one of the thoroughly usetul stamp that will not be “done with” until the post is passed.

PETRARCH. AN OFFICIAL ESTIMATR OF LORD DUPPLINS CHAMPION JUST BEFORE THE DERBY. In order to show how general the opinion was in England, prior to the Derby, that Lord Dupplin’s Petrarch could not lose that great race, the foliowing from the London Sportsman, 26th ult, 13 giren:— The keeper of the match book has given his prephecy forthe Derby, Each season it isthe practice of the official named to make a freo handicap of the leading three-year-olds in England and Franco, and the latest production in this way was made known to-day. An acceptance has 10,be deciared for the race noxt Tues- duy—the day before the Durby—but the event has not to led till the ‘Thursday in the Newmarket Houghton Meeting. With an animal like Petrarch to deal with the compiler of the weights could, of course, do uo more than ive the Two Thousand winner the heaviest impost, and rd Dupplin’s colt is asked to concede six pounds to Skylark and a lke amount to the Mineral colt, while nine pounds {s allowed tor the beating which Petrarch gave Julius Cassar in the Two Thousand. Braconnier is deemed the best of the Frenoh colts, but the handi- capper makes it out that be fs two pounds inferior to nt Lagrunge’s Ono Thousand heroine, Camelia, who ig supposed to be ablo to concede five pounds to Levant, who is now second favorite for the Uaks. The handi-~ cap will, as usual, present a widely diferent appear- ance when the acceptances arc made known, but in the meantime it 1s sufficient to note that the keeper of the match book thinks Petrarcn s0 far abeau ot those of his age that from bis handicap the deduction may be made that he considers the Two Thousand winner likely to win the Derby. PETRARCH’S HALF BROTHER DEAD, Mr. Spencer, the former owner of Petrarch, re- cently sustained a severe loss in the deathof The Czar, two-year-old half brothor to the winner of the Two Thousand Guineas, The Czar was by Blinkhoolie, out of Laura, and gave every promise of sustaining the | family prestige as a race horse. He was doing well uutil Sunday morning, 21st ult, when ho fell down in bis box with a ruptured liver, and dicd tm less than an hour. Besides heavy two-year-old engagements, The Czar was entered for next year’s Two Thousand, Champion Stakes at Newmarket, Derby, Prince - hla Stakes at Ascot, 3s. Leger and Grand Prize "aris, PRINCE OF WALES’ ARABIAN HORSE r “ALEP.” We have much pleasure in announcing, says the London Sporting Life, May 24, that His Royal High- ness the Prince of Wales bas placed his recently im- ported Arabian horse, ‘‘Alep,’’in the bands of Mr. Fothergill Rowlands, “Our Special Commissioner,” who was at Epsom last Monday, had the privilege of seeing the horse—strippod—within a few hours of his arrival, and pronounces him to be a most beautifully shaped animal, remarkable for his excellent limbs, and gifted with far botter feet than are usually character. istic of thy Arab, The horse is a bay, with black points and white hind heels. Owing to the effects of a beget journey bis coat was somewnat “open,” but as bo ha bis head well in the manger and scemed in thorough health ‘Our Special Commissioner’’ believes that ho will soon exhibit the famous “Pitt Place pvulisb.’” During a lengthened turf career ‘‘Alep” has known de- feat but twice, and whatever may be the intentions of ‘His Royal Highness with regard to him we must con- gratulate the Prince of Wales on having placed him under sueh experienced charge, A NOTED ENGLISH TURFMAN DEAD. Intelligence reaches us, says the London Sportemaw | 26th ult., of the death of Mr. Thomas Hewett, which, we regret to announce, took place on Wednesday, 24th ult, at nis residence, Hunter’s Hill, Gateshead, tn the seventy-sixth yoar of his age. Mr. Hewett was a foremost figure on the turf, especially as a breeder of blood stock, and his snnual sales at York slways con- tributed a feature of the Au; Meeting; in fact, Messrs. Tattersail's-catalogue for years was never com jote without the ‘sale of the Gibside yearlings.” Nowry, who won the Middle Park Plate in 1873, was bred by him, and many others who took honors on the flat were foaled at Gibsiae, Mr. Hewett wasan excel- jent- specimen of the English country gentleman, and his uniform courtesy and urbanity will be remembered far beyond his own immediate circle.

The avoual regatta of the New York Yacht Club, the great yachting event of the season, will be sailed to-day over the regular yachting course. Yachting this season will be Very interesting, asthe races for the America’s cup give ap international foature to tho sport that at- tracts the attention of the public. ‘There will be five Faces to-day, as the yachts have been divided into five classes, as follows:—Keel schooners, first class centreboard . schocners, second class Ceutreboard schooners, first class sloops and second class sloops. For the keel schooner class the tambler, Alarm, Wanderer and Restiess will proba- bly come together. The tirst three are certain to meet; but the question to what class the Restless belongs has mot. yet been decided. As sbe measures under 7,000 cubic feet she classes as a second class schooner; aud, again, boing a keel boat, she ought not to be classed with centreboard yachts. The Regatta Committve, bowever, will probably arrange the matter salisiactorily. Considerable interest will be displayed to see how the Rambler will sail with the Alarm and Wanderer, now that she has been rebuilt, and it appears to be the opinion of yachting men that although not improved im beauty she bas gained in speed. In the first class centreboard schooners the Tidal Wave, Palmer, Idler and Madeleine come together. This g certain to be agood race, and the Regatta Committee will pay -@epecial attention to the porformance of tho yachts ‘with @ view to selecting the ropresentative of the New York Yacht Ciub in the races for the America's cup against the Countess of Dufferin, There are five on- tries in the second class schooner class—Estolle, Comet, Poerless, Clio and Mets. This race looks like another Wictory tor the Comet if there is not ball a gale of wind. 4u the first class sioops there are the Arrow, Gracie, Vindex, Addie Voorhis and Petrel, a quintet hard to be beaten. The Gracie aud Addie Voorhis bave not sailed against one another for some time, and the race between them will be watched with much interest. The Arrow is @ very handsomo.sioop yacht, and, if her ap- pearance does not belic her, ought to sail very fast. If there is a stiff breeze Rear Commodore Center will be ablo to give them a race with the Vindex that will in- terest the spectators, The Active, Windward, Maacap and Brocze come together in the second class sloops, and the race between the Active and Madcap is sure to ‘be closely contested, The iollowing yachts will stare on the race and receive the allowances down in the tabular form, KREL SCHOONERS, Cubical Cup.

[From the London Sporting Gazette, May 27.] The stewards and committee shave finally fixed this regatta for the 29th and 30th June, the dates originally chosen, Thoy state that they regret this Gxture should be inconvenient to some of the Metropolitan clubs, but the proponderance of evidence in favor of achango from the days to which the meeting had been altered (viz, 22d and 23d June) was so apparent from the communi- cations received on tho subject that it left them no alternative, This is doubtless quite correct, as it was evident that the day following Commemoration day would never do, uniess Oxfurd crews were tobe shut out entirely, which would ve simply to spoil the re- gatta; but It does not seem very clear why 1t was necec- sary for the stewards to hark back apd retix the two days that they kuew to be most objectionable to the London division. It would, however, be most irregular to please everybody, and certainly Henley would not be Henley without a grumbling contingent to curse the committee, CRICKET.

RESULT OF THE SECOND COMPETITION FOR THE SELECTION OF THE * INTERNATIONAL TEAM— THE LEADING SIXTEEN. The body of experts (rom among whose number the American rifle team of 1876 is to be chosen met at Creedmoor yesterday to sheot in the second ‘stage of the second competition, Upon call- ing tho roll it wus found that the absentees of the day before were similarly wanting yes- terday, and the shooting proceeded, with twenty- one marksmen present. At the lower ranges, 800 and 900 yards, the wind was not very troublesome to the riflemen, but as the afternoon progressed the evening breeze came up stronger and stronger, and what was of far moro consequence to the shooters, blew ata very | upsteady guit and from various directions in rapid suc- cessivn. Farwell, at 800 yards, mado the best 72 which it was possible to make, baving3 centres at open- ing and closing with 12 consecutive bull’s-eyes; G. W. Yale at the same range dida brilliant ploce of shooting, in having thirteen bull's eyes in filteen shots; and Fulton seemed likely to redeem his rapidly wan- ing reputation as an expert marksmap, but at tae longer ranges the wind and the work got the better of the scorce, and a great falling off is noticeable. Fulton went to pieces again, coming out at tho close of the day’s work far down the list The worst luck seemed to attend Mr. Kathbone, At the last range his rifle, which is of a make very liable to foal and lead, became so badly leaded that a look into it gave the impression that it was a smooth bore, the grooves and lands losing their identity and merging imto ®smooth surface. Under the rule, however, he could not use another man’s weapon, though several were proffered, and fired on, winning bis score for the day with a tetal of about 161 out of the possible 250, The conclusion of the day’s. work enabled the commitico having charge of the match to announce the sixteen men having the highest aggregate, at the four days’ work already gone through with. These sixteen will shoot in two days’ competition on Tucsday aud Weduesday next, when four more of their number will be climinated {rom the list and the twelve of team ond reserve finally decided on, The aggregates for tuis choice out of the possible 1,000 points stood:— General T, 8.
