RACING AT PHILADELPHIA Grand Spring Running Meeting of the Point Breeze Park Association. & Fine Attendance,Good Weather and an Excellent Track. FIVE CAPITAL RACES. dames A, Mary, Leamington Second, Gen- eral Harney and Rummy the Winners. The inaugural race meeting began at Point Breeze Course yesterday afternoon, which was largely at- tended by people from all sections of the country, and the opening was one that must have been gratifying to those of the association who are responsible for the ‘waocess of the undertaking. Everything passed of pleasurably and al! the.racing was of the frst quality, The course at Point Breeze has undergone great phanges since last year, a new grand stand having been built and many otber improvements have taken place that will make the place popular with ladies as well as geatiemen when they are seen. Five races wero run daring the afternoon, the first being the Inaugural Stakes, for all ages, a dash of one mile and a half, which was won by Mr: P. Lorillard’s James A.; the second tho Rejorm Club Stakes, for three-your-old fillies, which was captured by Oden Bowie’a Mary; the third a dash of three-quarters of a mile, which was won by J. H. Racoy’s Leamington sec- ond; the fourth two-mile heats, which was won by W. Lakeland’s General Harney (entered in Cap- jain Cottrell’s name), and the fifth a gen- Meman’s steeplechase with hacks, which was ope of the best steeplechases that has taken place im America, where geutlemen exclusively were in the saddle. There were four starters, and the horses were tent over the hurdles atid walis in a manner seldom seen. Thete was only one fall, and that was a light one, aiter the fast jump had been taker by Mr, Robinson, 3r., and R. S. Heidekoper, who were at the last hurdie side and side; but when he landed Mr. Robinson's stirrup broke, and he fell off tho horse, and at the mo- ment victory scemed in his hands. Such races should be encouraged, as there are just as many fine gentle- men cross country riders will.ng to ride as there are professionals, and the gentlemen scem to be the better horsemen. The inangural Sweepstakes was for all ages, $50 en- trance, halt forfeit, the associution to add $500, ot which $100 was to goto the second horse; maidens al- lowed, if 8 yoars old, 3 Ibs, ; if 4 years old, 7 Ibs.; it 5 years old and upward, 12 lbs.

Grinstead, Whe old favorite, looked too fat for the work betore him. James A. made a capital race and won easily; Picéolo second, Ore Knob third. Madge behaved badly. THE RACE.

At the three-quarter pole Shylock led one length, General Harney second, a length in front of Killdare. The horses ran at a good pace up the homestretch, and as they pasged the stand at tho end of tbe first’ mile Shylock led a length, General Hurney second, half a length in frontof Kildare, Time, 1:51. “Phere was nochange of place around the upper tu d asthe horses passed the quarter pole Shy- J il led one length, Harney second, half a length in advance of Kildare, General Harney pressed bis suit down the backstretch,and at the halt-miie pole Shylock had only a neck the best of it, Kildare two lengths bebind, Shylock and General ney tought gamely around the lower turn, Shylock coming into the homestretch about half a length ahead of Har- ney, but the General stuck to him so closely and pressed his suit so pertinaciousiy that he suc- ceeded eventually in showing his nose in front, and this was just as they passed under the wire, General Hurney won the heat by a head, Snyiock ten lengths in tront of Kildare, the latter being taken in hand at the foot of the stretch and made no effort at the fuish. The last milo was won in 1:493¢ and the heat in 3:40%(. Second Heat.—General Harney was thep, the favorite atdto 1 over the field) Kidure made running trom the start, and succeeded in taki the lead at once, General Harn y second, Shylock third, Going around the upper turn Kildare lea two length: which he carried to. the quarter pole, Genel Harney second, four lengths in advance of Shylock, At the half-mile pole Kildare led two lengtbs, Harney two lengths ahead of Shylock.

This he did in the gamest manner, winning the heat and race by six lengths, Kildare second, a dozen lengths in front of Shylock, Time, 3:4234. THE FIFTH RACE. The fifth race was the Hynter's Plate, a steeplechase for horses not thoroughbred, that have been used as hunters or backs, and owned in Philadelphia or vicinity Six months prior to date of entry; one mile and a haif over a fair hunting country; weights 150 Ibs, ; over- weight allowed if declared; geutieman riders; en- trance $15; threo to onter and two to start, $300, or @ piece of piete of that value, at the option of the winner, to first horse; entrance moncy to second. There were four entrics, comprising Charles H. ‘Town- send’s bay gelding Rummy, aged, 150 Ibs.; ridden by nominator; 8. Heidekoper’s bluck gelding Artaxerxes, ridden by nominator; Daniel Bray’s brown gelding Jackson, 158 lbs., ridden by M. Robinson, Jr., and J. Gardner’s chestout gelding Aubrey, 150 Ibs, ridden by C. E. Ashburner, There was no betting on this event, as it was such a novelty in Philadelphia that the people did not seem to do any- thing further tnan look on, as they expected sev- eral of the gentlemen to be thrown and a grand bur- lesque throughout. Those who made such calculations wero greatly surprised to see tne fine riding and ex quisite mauagemont of the horses that the gentlemen displayed. THK RACE. Jackson was first away, Aubrey second, Artaxerxes third, Rummy fourth. The horses ran south and met a stiff hurdle, Aubrey goiug over first, Artaxerxes'soc- ond, Rummy third, Jackson fourth, but he bolted, and for a few moments hesitated about taking the leap. When be made up his mind to jump there was ro better in the race, ‘The horses then ran over to the backstretch, keeping im the inner field, and there Jumped two burdies elegantly, Artaxerxes leading, Aubrey second, Rummy third, Jackson fourth, but making up bis lost ground rapidly. The horses bad for the next jump the brush _ fence and tuen a stone wail, Artaxerxes leading the way splendidly, closely followed by Aubrey, Rum- my third, Juckson not far behind. Aubrey then took the lead, but heldit only over the first hurdie, when Rummy, coming with a rush, led over the water by a length, Auvrey second, titty yards abead of Artaxcrxe: who had bolted at the previous hurdle, Jackson stil! further off Rummy continued on in Iygnt over two hurdles, but at the third he, too, refused, and Aubrey’ went to the front again, avd led out of the field on to the regular track. As soon as he got into straight running Aubrey began to give it ape ashe seemed completely pumped out, and Rummy having recovered and made bis jumps over the burdies, soon passed Aubrey as also did Jack- son and Artaxerxes. Jackson made a gallantrun down the backstretch over the hurdie, aud soon taking sides with Rummy a gallant struggle ensued until they jumped the last hurdle, when the stirrup of the rider of Jackson broke and the gentieman fell of. Rummy then went in a winner of tho race, Artaxerxes second, Aubrey third, Time of the race, 4:04}4. ‘The following are the SUMMARIES. THK FIRST RACE.

Commonwealth, FLEETWOOD PARK, FIBST DAY OF THE JUNE TROTTING MEETING— ALECK AND CLOVER THE WINNERS. The regular June trotting meeting at Fleetwood Park ‘was successfully inaugurated yesterday. Ono incident of note was the absence of pool selling. For years the pool seller and tho betting fraternity have occupied the lower portion of the grand stand cn race days, but Mr, Barnard, the new President of the Park, deeming the arrangement objectionable, ordered the discontinu- ance of the busizess there at tbat particular spot He, however, provided another: place for the auctioneer and his clerks just above and at the side of the grand, stand, The betting men, or rather some of them, objected to any innovation in this respect, and refused to buy pools unless the auctioneer returned to his old location. To this end they sent a representative to the President, apprising him of their detormination, Mr. Barnard politely refused to follow in the old rut, saying that the new pool stand was pleasantly located, and that the selling and buying mast be done there or not at all, The result ‘was that there was no betting, and before the first race was over the auctioneer shut up his book and box and left the track. Mr. Barnard feols that the change was demanded by the visitors to the park, the majority of whom go there to see the trotting and not to speculate, and he is sanguine that the public will bear him out in his decision, There were two events on the card, the Orst being a purse of $400 for horses that nover beat 2:50, mile heats, three in five, in harness. Of twelve entries ten came to the score, these being J. P. Gtlipert’s sorrel mare Lucine, Thomas 0’Conner’s bay gelding Jim Maffit, Joba Murpby’s black gelding Aleck, Jobn Lan- gan’s chestnut gelding Major Lambert, 0. S. Bailey’s sor- rel mare Sarah, James N. Chandler's roan mare Leo, J. H. Hayward’s bay gelding Little Mary, J. E. Jarvis’ black mare Jennie, Benjamin Mace’s bay gelding Vermont andl. A, Denton’s bay gelding J. M. Oakley. Aleck won the race in three straight heats. Vermont took second and Oakley third money. Major Lambert was distanced in the second heat for running, but for some unaccountable reason be was allowed to startin the third heat where he finished fourth. Second on the card wes ‘@ purse of $600, for horses that never trotted better than 2:34, samo conditions as the first event. The eight entries responded to the call of the judges, these being John Murpby’s gray gelding Steve Maxwell, Chester Simmons’ bay geluing Cheston, F. Dunbam’s chestnut gelding Silver Tail, Thomas Crane’s roan gelding St George, Richard Peniston’s bay gelding sulewo, T. C. Barden’s gray mare Bessie, M. H. Whipple’s black gelding New Brook and W. E. Woeks’ bay geiding Clover. The lat- ter won tho race in three straight heats, and seemingly without an effort. He went away from the field at the word and was never houded during the race. Steve Maxwell tudk second movey aud the judges awarded third premium to Suletio, It should have beem given to Silver Tuil, as he stands better on the record, SUMMARY.

There was a fresh breeze blowing from about south southwest during the afternoon, and on account of the direction of the wind the course was made trom the dam, at the east end of the lake, to the black path, at the west end, thus making the longest course that could be luid out on the lake. Thete wero two prizes offered by Commodore Conklin, in the shape oft a silver butter knife, and a sugar spoon of the same material The following boats entered to com- pete:— JVame. Little G: Republi Lizzie, Young Robert Centro. The start on the first heat was made as foliows:— HM 8 H. M. 8, +. 8 53 00 Young Greek... 3 53 00 Republic . 3 62 00 Robert Centre.. 3 53 30 Liazie.......... 3 52 30 All the boats went off on the port tack and fora short time sailed along very evenly, nono having any advantage. The first tack was a long one by each boat, The Republic was the frst to go about, and when she headed around for the south shore she led the ficot, The second tack was the losing one, and probably for that reason the Robert Centre held on to her port tack before sho went m stays, This proved an advantage to her, and she gave promise of soon taking @ place in the front rank, but, unfortunately, just alter going around SHE COLLIDED WITH THR YOUNG GnEEK, which lost for ber all chance of victory. A pretty seratch between the Republic and Millie was going ov near the south shore at this time, but the Republic seemed to have tho best of it A second disaster occurred during this beat vy the Lizzie’s carrying away her,bowsprit by a coliision with the boat which carried her crew The Republic finally came in the winner of this heat, making the prescribed distance in 10m. followed ‘by the Little Gat two minates later. The peg Lizzie and Young Greek came in in the order nam The second heat was a very interesting Little Gat. ie, and was watched attentively by the spectators on Club Houso Istand. ‘The boats were started as before, 30 seconds apart, and all remained on the port tack until within a few feei of the north shore. The Little Gat and Re- public headed up best, er, and, when all bed roundod for the south shore, the two mentioned were ahead of their untegonista and were having a hard is for Orst place. Whon the fleet passed Ciub House Isiand there was little difference between any two of the bats, but the Little Gat bad snoved her noso Pak nn 4 ahead, Her lead she not only maintained over the remainder of the course, but ste increased it materialiy, og eventually won the heat in in 9m. 308, @ other boats remained bunched for a long time, until tie Republic caught a flaw under the south shore which sent her ahead, and she arrived at her destination bop doe foslowed closely by the Lizzie, Centre and Young Greek. It was decided from these two heats to award tho bad Orst prize to the Republic and the second to Little jal. A number of other boats were out during the after- noon, among them the Cornelia, Captain Cole; tho Rob- ert Coiyer, Captain A. Dayton; the Frank, Captain F. Wyant; Kittie B, Capta ‘and the Comet, Captain Morris, Severai scrub races wore hau between these vessels, and, as there was pienty of wind, they were all interesting. The sport 1 certainly growing in popularity, if the increasing number of lookers on, who yathered about the shores of the lake on Satur- day ait ja any criterion. Some of the ladies bring ‘spon glnasee with them, that 4 may watch moro the movements of the yach: Next day afternoon the American Model Yacht Glad will & regatta, NEW YORK HERALD, SUNDAY, JUNE 25, 1876—QUADRUPLE SHEET. THE COLLEGE REGATTA. Columbia’s University and Freshman Crews at Saratoga. HOW THE MEN LOOK AND FEEL, AGE, WEIGHT AND HEIGHT OF EACH. Sapatoca, June 20, 1876. Fifteen representatives from Columbia College ar- rived hero last evening and this morning were escorted to their old quarters, at Engrem’s, on Saratoga Lake, where they will remain until after tho regatta, This evening the crows—University and Freshman—were out for their first practioe pull; and thus the blue and white have tled down to one mouth’s hard work, a preparation necessary for tho eventful struggle of the 19th o1 July, These mon from New York look well, and, best of all, are in excellent spirits. Hopeful for the future and confident that a painstaking discharge of their self-imposed duties will not fail of a generous appreciation by their fellow citizens and fellow stu- donts, they have come to this place for the third time, The end in view is victory. Hardly any other collezo in the land has such an exceptionally good boating record as Columbia Once her boys were winners, and in all her other inter- collegiate contests they finished so creditably that naught but universal commendation followed their efforts. Though young in the list of those insti- tutions seeking aquatic honors, Columbia has the rare faculty of making but little protension, yet she has 80 much resolution and so much nervo and -grit it is natural that her admirers think sho has some show of bearing away the houors of the coming battle. Con- siderable, however, has already been said and written about the chance which Columbia this year possesses, and much of this bas been gossipped and rumored and hurriedly scrawled to serve no purpose, Why there should be a feeling among outsiders that this six, simply because they aro from New York, should be the victors in the coming regatta, is beyond the possibility of my comprebension; yet such suporstition éxists, and with maby who should know better it is dificult to make them concede that any other crew hasa chance in the contest, The oarsmen themselves have no such idea, and Captain Goodwin speaks rather hesitatingly about the result, ‘We don’t know, of course, what tho result will be,” said he; ‘that just now is not given any consideration; we came here to work and work we will, honestly and conscientiously, to the end.” Hero's the keynote to Goodwin's efforts. His management’ of the crew has been most judicious and consistent, and, win or lose, he will have through- out done all that a captain and stroke could do, Tho. men are powerful and standing work and traiving ‘as woll as could be wished. Not another college of the seven that may compete this year has any better prospects than this, iftried oarsmen amount toanything. The crew of 75, man for man and place for place, is the crew this year. No new candh- date has been obliged to pass the ordeal of a trial, an unusual occurence, but one which Columbia’s friends think the cause of much congratulation. Cer- tainly the factthat time and amore extended ex- perience has not required the least change is a source ef satisfaction. Superior preliminary conditions are nover to be thrown away, and with care the crew should draw up to the starting line on the day of tho race in fine form and trim, and in the wioding-up rusb, if they should push tho nose of their shell first across the finish, the hearty applause of a generous. public will be freely extended them. All winter long and throughout the spring tho University six had been under careful supervision. It ig difficult in such @ centre of excitement and gayety } ag New York, in tho season of cold weather, invariably 1s, for men to so satisfactorily train as in towns and villages where there is less of fashion and fewer means of social enjoyment. When first out on the Harlem it was found by the Cap-ain that he bad much to do, even if the boat con- tained the six mqn that finished just eleven seconds the winners of °75, True, the amalgamation of tho heterogeneous elements existing in new crews was not required, but it was found that the men had forgotten one important and vital element of success, and that is, tbe wradual habitustion of each man’s rowing to bis brother’s, and all to that of the stroke. Hard rowing was not desirod at that early period, but it was essential that the oarsmen should not pull @ careless stroke, which it was found they did, To eradicate this great evil Goodwin bent his mind, and daily be endeavored to impress upon the occupants of the sheils that ‘‘perfect steadi- ness and equability of stroke were the grindstones which polish down the crade angularities of uneven elements of work.’”? To say that perlect success has been the result of the Captain’s efforts in this direction jo case, That he has succeeded in doing much to mal the members of the shell feel that they have this tault is the cause of con- gratulation, but his task is not yet complete in this particular. He knows that periect uniormity can never be attained m any crew unless it has been reviously fused together in the magic crucible of Fait ful Practice, Once fix the rowing as it should be and it will not recede, but continue to grow more polished, more sbarp, muro effective, more speedy, even beyond belief, is Goodwin's idea, and a good idea itis. From six to eight miles a day was the average work of the six on the Harlem, with a shorter pull im a four- oar and pair. Hero at Saratoga, this fixed resort of undergraduate muscle, they will doubtless be out morning ard evening, or at other times when the water permits. The work on the lake has been fully marked out by Captain Goodwin, and will only be. deviated from ty force of uncontrollable circumstances. He de- sires to more thoroughly impress upon bis men the Tight application o! nds of training, showing that they train, not merely to reduce weight, nor for dis- cipline and regularity’s sake, bat for this purpose— that every man may be fairly equal to his task; yes, and be saperior to ft, leaving some energy to spare after he has rowed his best and bas put juto his oar all that he Perfection in having become uniform , machine, steadily over a three-mile course from first to last, and the tast mile better than the first, with a power of “quickening still ident in them, reserved for an omergency. ‘3 working for, and there 18 no doubt but that be accomplish much toward the hoped-for result, Not that he has so expressed himseif; bu: L infer that he is heartily g'ad to be up here on the ‘uke with the quietude of night upon everything round about.

GRAMERCY CLUB RACE, The monthly two-milo race for the championship of the Gramercy Boat Club was rowed yosterday after- noon on the Harlem River. The course was from Gates’ dock to High Bridge. The contestants were Messrs, E. B. Welch, H. Mills and A. Spitzka Mills was a favorite at the beginning of the race, notwith- Standing the fact that on the 10th inst, Welch beat him in a race for the one-mile Championship, At tho start he took the lead. Spitzka followed him and Welch got away last, Mills had the middie position, Spitzka had the New York side and Welch the Westchester side of the river. The race was still fresh when Welch caught and passed Spitzka, At the Athietic Club grounds he passed Mills, and thence lea him totheend, At Ma- combs Dam Mills was ten lengths behind Welch, and Spitzka turther, At this place Spitzka dropped out of the race. Milla kept on, but his efforts were weak, Welch arew away from him rapidly, and when tno former passed the goal Mills was about a quarter of a mile behind him, The tide was against the rowers, but it was pot strong. The time of Welch was 15m. 138, Mills did not cross the score. ALCYONE BOAT. CLUB. Tho annual regatta of the Alcyono Bont Club took place yesterday, The course was from Huyler’s Land- ing straightaway toa point two and a balf miles off, a little above Excelsior Park. Tho steamboat William Cook started from Jeweil’s dock, Brooklyn, at half-pagt ten and left pier No, 35, North River, at eleven o'clock. As soon as the select party from Brooklyn made their appearance the dancing commenced and the party on board tho William Cook danced till they reached the course. There wore two contests—the patr-oared sculls and the four-oared gig race, In the pair-oared sculls there were two boats, tho Curlew and the C ‘The Curlew sported the light blue and the the red colors. On this race tho red and blue started off together, but failed to keep 60, The reds turned into the river, but managed to get the swash of all the boats in the river. ‘The blues pulled a stroke of 30 to the minute, and the red, 35; nevertheless, the blue won by steady’ pulling. Alter the shell race was over the gig race was on hand, aud the competitors were as follows:—The Coquette; colors, blue; bow, Charies C, Blossom; No. 2, William B. Cromwell; No. 3, Thomas G. Wells; Jobo E. Borne; coxswain, Arthur Tupper; The Flirt; colors, bow, Joseph J. Aulholm; No. 2, Edward P. Whipp! (0, 8, Willtum J. Oliver; stroke, A._N, Waterhouse; coxswain, Wilham V. Topper. This raco resulted in favor of the blue, the Cequette, 1t was a good race as well as the other, and both were far above amateur races generally in point of honor and rowing. CLERKS AT THE OAR, A race between a four-oared barge manned by em- ployés of Messrs. William H. Lyon & Co. and another manned by a crew from tho Brooklyn Heights Club took place last evening on the Harlem River. The course was a mile and a balf, straight-away, and was rowed over by the victors—tne employés of Lyon & Co.—in 11m, 22s. THE NORTHWESTERN ROWING AS- SOCIATION. At the eighth annual regatta of this association, to be held at Toledo on July 4, 5 and 6, thero are two races open.to all amateurs. Both of them take place on the 4tb, one being for single scullers and the other for four- cared crews. The prizes are offered by the citizens o¢ Toledo, and are valuable enough to attract the attention of crews from all sections of the country. The Western oarsmen have on scveral occasions made races open to all amateurs, but they have not met with the success in getting visitors from the East that they had ex- peeted or desired, and, consiuering the frequent trips to tho East made by Western representatives, they feel that something is d in return. Early notice is given of the wo races 6o that some of our New York clubs can m: arrangements lor sending on crews. The railroad fares are very low at present and the ex- pense is thus materially lessened, [tis not necessary lor acrew to be long on the course to learn it. The stretch of the Maumee River, on which the course is laid out, ts perfectly straight and wide enough to ac- commodate a dozen boats. Tho first crow that ven. tures West and experiences the gencrous hospitality of the clubs there will feel itself well repaid for the trip, a8 nothing will be left undone to make its stay pleasant. Entries for the open races do not close until July a The fall prograinme of the regatta ts as follows:— Fimst Day, July 4—1L Fleasure boats, 2, Single sculls (open to all). & Four-oared shells (open to all).

To me Epitor or tax Heraio;— The card in your journal of Wednesday in reforonce to the Harlem regatta, signed ‘Fair Play,” is such a false statement and dors such injustice to the Atalanta: Boat Club that 1 am compelicd to reply to i, Now, Mr. Editor, I was on the steamboat William Tittamer, stationed about seventy-five feet below the fnishing flag, and emphatically deny that the Columbias were ahea. and that the collision occurred after passing the winning flag. On the contrary, the accident took place when the Atalantas were exactly opposite the Titta- mer, aud the Columbias about three-quarters of a length in the rear, and with no chance, in the short distance then to go, to win. A dozen people around me, including several ladies, would willingly testify to this fact. “Fair Play” must bave been looking through Columbia’s ‘spectables, and permit- ted his enthuswsm to get the better of his good sense. The Columbia boat was not injured in the least by the collision, as stated by sone of the reporters. The Atalanta Ciub, the oldest in the United States, has done more for boating than avy other or- ganization in the country, and yet whenever they win it appears impossible to obtain apy credit for their vic- tory. I am proud of tho Columbias, and hope that they will win at Saratoga, and am confident that they prefer to win fairly on the water and not in the news- Papers. Thope that as, you have given “Fair Play” a caring you will, im justice to the Atalanta Boat Club, give this a place in your vgluab’e journal. 8. M. CLARKE. A. CHALLENGE. New Yor. June 24, 1876.
