The result of the game of polo was received with hearty applause, as, indeed, were all the feats poriormed, THR MEN OF THE CLUB, The cool encampment at Fleetwood was visited by a Heraxp reporter yesterday. One look ins‘de the tonts would satisfy the most scrupulotts person that tranks and camp stools, dressed skins and head | rests fill the eye so fur ascomtort and the general ar- rangement of neatness is concerned.

An these men have splendid physiques, and they Jook as upon their hardened muscles to fatigue them. Six are tair-laced individuals, types of Eastern civilization, while two are of sligutly darker skin and hair, these being the members who are na@ve born Callornians, ‘The others are “Argonauts.” Their names ‘are, as tole Jow. ‘Neil Mowry (captain), lom K.

A finer representa- tive of physical manhood one would fail to Lina day’s journey, He looks ali over just the man who Would successfully pull through the longest race on revord, which he diu at Bay View Park, Sun Francisco, August 2, 1568, riding 300 miles against time (tilveen hours), and accomplishing the distance in 14b, 9m, For this Captain Mowry received a purse of $4,250 and a medal, which he has now in his possession, Mowry also carries a gold medal presented him by Mr. Silas Selleck, President of the Buy View Park Assoclaion, us a token of esteem for the manner in which he rode a 200 mile race over that track in Octo- ber, 1869, defeating William Walsh, and. going the dis- tance in Sh, 48mm., the contest extending into the mght, Mowry bas been the wiover im other m con- tests, particularly those of filty miles, wih he rod against Mr. J. Smith. The lirst of these events was in May, 1875, when he made the tifty miles .in.2h. 2m., the fastest time on record, Again, on April 22. this year, he rode avother race of the same cbavacter, with his ol4 opponent, Smith, each being allowed ten forse: and required to Change them every mile. The horses used by Smith on this oc n were notably superior to Mowry’s; but while the former was deliperate | to a degree in bis mounts and dismoauts, Mowry threw himseit from one horse to another almost without losing his healway. By this means he was enabled to gain time to equal, and more than equal, the disadvantage in the speed of bis horses. He was repeatedly timed and occupied frow three to five seconds iu his changes Mowry was the winner by 200 yards m 2b. 8m. In these coutests, California horses, the same as the Polo Club have with’ them, were used, can illustrate to perfection the manners and geveral style of those rough riders of the southern plains of Caliornia, which have in the near past, if they do not now, filled an important place in the industrial econ- omy of that State, Always in good trim, from the amount of exercise tuken, these daring, skillul and oe horsemen are fine exponents of what outdoor ite will produce, POLO PLAYING. “These.” said Capiain Mowry, showing the reporter | the meduls already referred to, “are my credentials, | but all my companions ure good riders, und each can | perform inauy feats in the saddle, What parucularly called us to New York, however,” continued he in a pleasant tone, ‘‘was to play polo. We think that liye of ‘our number are creditable performers, and as this maniy sport, one of the best calculated to educate eye, nerve and muscle, bas been so successiully introduced here, we imagined that a visit would not be out of piace.

Soveral thousand persons yesterday lined the banks of tho Passaic River at Nowark to witness the annual regatta of the Passaic River Rowing Association, an organization of all the local clubs, The river never presented a gayer scene. It was nearly five o'clock when the start took piace on the first dash—a six-oared gig race. Eurekas and Mystics. It was a mile and a balf race, straight away from the Midland to the railroad bridges. On the Grst quarter the Mystics shot ahead first, the Eurekas following next and the Passucs last. The Mystics won by one boat length ahead of the Eurekas, Time, 8m. 248. The tollowing are the names of the rowing crew:—J. W. Adams, dow; R. Van Buskirk, No. 2; Rt, W.

The races were, as } @ consequence, resolved into two matches— | one for schcouers and one for sloops, as above named, The course, as originally provided in the programme, was to have been from the lighiship off Sandy Hook to and around the Five Fathom lightship at Cape May and return, but on Saturday ‘Inst this was changed, making the race from buoy 54, off Sandy Hook, to and around Cape May lightship and return to Sandy | Hook light, leaving both on the port hand. The start, | which was arranged to be a flying one, was to have been made at ten A. M., but owing to the almost dead caim that provailed uli Monday forenoon, a postpone- ment had to be made until a breeze sufficient to fll the sails of the competing yachts could bo obtained.

A full descrip- Uon of the race. as viewed from the contesting yachts, is herewith given, which will show the particular points in the contests and the time of passing the different points and the time occupied iu sutling over tho course ;— A breeze THY SLOOP RACK, ON Boarn Tue AxRow, June 28, 1876, The first to be started were the sloops, the word being given from the steamer Raymond by the Regatia Com- mittee. The Gracie crossed the line at 1h. 22m, 308, P. M. on the sturboard tack, and was followed by the Arrow on the same tack at 1b. Jim. 10s. The wind at the time Was moverate from the southward. Bow yachts carried mainsail, jib and balloon gaff topsuil. Alter standing on this tack for some time both yachts ‘went about aud headed for the beach, the Arrow all the time outpointing and overreaching her autugonist, until by 2b. 59m. 10s. she had tairly passed her, when she went about agam on the starbourd tack, which mapwuvre was speedily followed by the Gracie. At 4b. 18m. the Arrow again tacked saip standing out ‘to the eastward, but the Gracte still he'd on on the port tack. Deal was abeam at 5b. 38in. and the Gracie was astern and to leeward about two miles, botb yuchts being then on the port tack. The wind was sttll hold- ing lair aud at 6b. 54m. the Arrow, having reached weil in near the shore, went about and stood off on thes board tack. Squan was at Th. dm. with the Gracie tar off astern in the dim. distance aud at eight o’ciock. was no longer to be distinguished. At mine o'clock Barnegat was sighted on the weather south. The Arrow was standing on the port tack ut this time, which she held until 9b. 23m, when she wentabout, Tho windagain snitved, hauling more to the westward, At ten o’clock another tack was made to port, and to starboard again at 10h. 40m. From this out the order was a sucevssion of short tacks down the coast, Barnegat bore abeam at 11h 22m. At 12n. 18m, the wind once more shifted to the Bouthwent bat still kept steady, allowing ail canvas to be spread. At this time the Arrow was still carrying her mainsail, club. topsatl, balioun jib and jib topsail, and was sailing very fast with scarcely any itching perceptible, although she rose and [vil on the jong ucean swell. The weather overhead was cieat and bright.

Egg Harbor bore abeam at suorise, The wind feil light aguin aud but little progress was made, Attive A. M. the breeze came out aguin from the southward, but still ex- ceedingly light and baflling. Five minutes later the Arrow took in her jid and set the balloon jib in its place, deriving xreat benefit there‘rom. AtSh. 25m. the wind once more changed and caine from south- southwest, and sheets had all to be trimmed down, At six o'clock she was off Atiantic City, and throe quarters of an hour later sent up her jib topsati, but deriving little benefit from it sent it down again. At Sh. 55m. the balioon jib was hauled down and the jib set imits stead, the yacht being at the time on the starvoard tack, She went about at 9h, 10m. and set her jib topsail, The Gracie in the meantime was sighted through the mist but soon lost sight of. She was again viewed at Joh. 30m , away off to leeward, bearing wind here began to fresten and the balloon gait topsail was taken in, and working gaff topsail | set in its place, The Cape May Lighiship was sighted at | 1h. 20m, this morning, when two long tacks had to be made to fetch it, The Gracie--what was supposed to be ber—was again sighted at 2b. 30m., but disappeared from view before she couid be distinctly mnado oui, THE FIVE FATHOM LIGHTSAIP was rounded at $b. 35m., und shect was given for the run bome before the wind. The balloon jiv, too, was boomed out with a whisker pole, dnd with the fresh breeze which now came up quick time was being made, At 4b. 15m. the Gracie was met on her way to tho lightsbip, standing on the port tnck about one mile and it to leeward, The Arrow’s jib topsail, whicu she had set on rounding the turning ‘point, was doing eit cient service, and she glided through the water ata spanking rate. At 6h. 12m. the schooners America and Alarm were sighted Jor the first time since the com- menceutent of the race, both heading for the Cape May light, the first named leading the latter by about two miles, both being on the port tack.

The wind after the first puff, which lasted but a few minutes, caine out light, so that the boom had t> be guyed out and searcely stecrage way could be maiutained, The breeze again shifted at Ofty minutes past nine to the southward and #t ten minutes past ten was lighter [rom south by west, After the squall aud sudden enity ot wind, as ove — deserib all hands went to work splicing the whisker pole, in order to be ready for turther use if baw! 8 Nothing forther transpired. of any interest, The mages hight way passed on the homeward tip at 12h. dim., and at one A, M. the wind freshened from ‘the southwest, and gain at 2h. 20m. came from the northwest. At 4b. 1om. the Gracie was sizhted astern crawling up like a witch, she having apparently stood out to the castward duriag the night and caught a favorable broeze, while the Arrow had bugging tne shore, Her’ gain, howevor, thus made, was msuflicient at this stage to ve of any practicnl to her, tor nt 6b.

SOME OF THE MEN GETTING Too rixg—BoTH “NA | CREWS PULL OVER THE COURSE--MEASUBE~ MENTS OF THN MEN, Sprincrintp, Mass., June 28, 1876, Pulling out trom her boat house a little before six o'clock last evening, Yale paddied about for mintte or two, then backed up to the starting line and went off over the course ata thirty-three stroke, A quiet, rather than a fiery, start. After settling down, the work looked greatly like last year’s, when, it will be remembered, she rowed just that many; and for a six: without coxswain, at least, instead of an eight with, it did not seem to be enoug! Bat the impotus of the larger boat seetns greater than that of a six, and she shot far between strokes; in fact, looked to shoot very far, owing im part to the rather long powe ot the oar in the air just belore- enter- ing the water, Owing to thelr mot smiting the water sharply with the om they onters but rather first getting them in and then by heavy leg pressure and straightening of the knees, letting their weight on the oar, they commence to slide bodily at once and continue till the body is perpendicular, thes puiling the hands into the waist and shooting ou’ again, They hardly reach as far out for each stroke at the Harvard men do, No, 6, for instance, though his head 1s thrown well up and buck, reaching only from the shonlders, rathor than from the hips. Mr, Kellogg, too, at Nu. 4, though experienced in former races, hardly rows as well or looks as oasy at his work as some of the newer men. Mr. Cook occasionally reaches one arm around. too far in his efforts to get.a long. stroke forward; indeed it ts doubtfal it be does not ly or who.ly let go with his outer or left hand for an instant when the oar is furthest forward. This incurs risk of losing some power, and, while possibie to a man who feathers as he does, and, as is usual with’ parsmen, with his blade hand, it could not be allowed with one who, like Kidred, of the Argousutas; makes the outer hand do the feathering. Mr. Wood, at No, 2, rowed well yesterday. Altogether the crew travelled wel ind, though apparently aimmg at a steady swing father than racing pace, they shot the arch of the railroad bridge in dm. 16s. and swung briskly of down stream, rounding the point in lim, 30s. from the start. Their boat looked to huld them well and is practically a counterpart of the English one which they are compelied to discard. She ought to live in aconsiderable sea, and though Yale doss not feather so high us Harvard, yet the iatter’s coach Say he thinks sbe behaves quite as well in rough water. Though toey found none of tne latser on the upper par’ | of the course, the boat must have bad a taste of it be- low: still it-had died down much from two hourt bvelore, when either eight could hardly have lived ove: the course, the waves running nearly two feet high on the lower mile-and a.half, Finishing her row, the Jasi onc doubtless over (he whole course prior to the race, save to-day’s, and resting a little she turned and came up stream on # comfortable paddle, HARVARD FOLLOWS. Harvard was now seen launching, and in a few minutos was afloat and had crossed the stream to the west bank eur where Yale was passing bound up. Foliowing after, the two eights made a pretty sight as they swung aloug up in friendly proximity, Yale doing Wirty-two to the minute to Harvard’s thirty, and nat- uraliy rather cree ‘way from her. They kept on up to the start, a little above which, on the west bank ls Yale's boat house, a ry low, temporary shed, while her blue flag waves on high from above a iarge and comiortable look:ng brick mansion back a little up the rout. Yale thus gots at ouce to the starting point, ‘but Harvard has tou a long two miles ot preliminary firey A sharp thandersiorm with fast heavy rain ad slightly toued down the intense heat of the past Harvard waiting a little, at length the’ line, and in moment more is away. Now she tries an entirely new plan. Insteae of steering for the central arch and keeping in mid river, she sweeps stoadily to the right and shoots the two bridges fur over toward the western bank and un der one of the shorter arches, This brought her on! directiy on the large flat shoal which lies just below the bridge on the West Springfield and Agawain side, anc had the water been as low as some seasons, she would have had heavy work getting across it, jor these shells, little as they draw, need at least four fect of water or their speed is checked. As it was she found the experiment did not pay, and though enabling her to hug both. points and so shorten her course) materially, sho would have gone faster in midstream. Inthe race t boat winning the choice of positians wiil doubtless take the western station, bat will then row in midgtream. bal | thr other over into the longer course the east. wing but thirty-four to the minate, slower than usual for her, Harvard sped on in tine style and Indeed it daily becomes more plain that though she may not have the power of her rival, her men are better togother, irreg- ‘ularities in a boat, little defects and eycsores aro nol always serious matters.
