The only public celebration of the day was under the auspices of the Oldest Inhabitants Association at Ford’s Opera House. A number of persons of official prominence were present, iuclading the committee ap- pomted by the House of Representatives. It was tho largest meeting of the kind for many years. Colonel Easby read the Declaration of Independence, and L. A. Govright, one of the Centennial Commissioners of the District of Columbia, delivered the oration, Salutes werd fired at morning, noon and sundown, the display of bunting and other decorations was larger than heretofore on Fourth of July occasions, THREE HOMICIDES GROWING OUT OF THE HOLIDAY OBSERVANCE, This morning two young men, William O’Brien and William Grant, companions, while under the influence of liquor became engaged tn a quarrel, when William Nicholson, another of the party, handed a pistol to O'Briev, who fired it at Grant, the ball taking effect in the abdomen and producing deatn several hours after- ward. Atcleven o'clock to-day ancther murder was com- mitted, the parties being colored.

They were practising ehoot- | ing atamark, and just as Garvey was taking bis first shot witha pistol Day thoughtlessly walked im front of the pistol, the ball from which passed through Day's skall, the latter falling lifeless to the ground. The parties producing the above detatied fatal results have beon arrested. — THE DEDICATION CEREMONIES AT THE CATHOLIC TOTAL ABSTINENCE FOUNTAIN YESTERDAY, AT THE EXHIBITION GROUNDS. Pitavecenta, July 4, 1876, ‘At half-past one o'clock this afternoon the vanguard of the great procession of the Catholic Total Abstinence societies reached the Exhibition grounds, and, after some delay, incident to the registrations at the turn- stiles, entered the grounds to the east of tho main butlding, and, mareting along Republican avenue, reached the sito of the fountain shortly before two o'clock, Here seats bad been ranged around the monumental marble for the con- venience of the public, and a gmail framework pro- vided for the speakers, but as the open space afforded no protection from the seoretiing rays of the sun, the assembiage of epectatore, which was at first quite respectable in pambers, rapidly diminished, and at the close of thie exercises Was inconsiderable. apy of the proc upon arriving at tbe y fnbigue superinduced by 0 farther parc in the public demonstra. ooler resorts of the “is, and, nds, Spent te alternoou in chightiul ravines of the in- closure, The of the dedication were od over by Rev, Patrick sident of thec, Union of Amorica, aad it the intervals between tho urnised by ‘he Cornet Band of | Many of the officers hion and a number of the delegitions of from the Indian total abstinence societies of Wisconsin, Wyoming, Chippewa and Michigay unions, with their’ missionary, Rev.

BRANCH Second Day of the First Summer Meet- ing at Monmouth Park. A GRAND ATTENDANCE. Delightful Weather Good Sport. and FIVE EVENTS ON THE CARD. Idalia, Shylock, Tom Ochiltree, St, Martin and Bullet the Winners. Patriotic fervor excited to the Doiling point of en- thusiasm by no means cffervesced in the noisy tamult of the demonstration commemorative of tho ushering in of the great Centennial holiday, But thousands sought a more ratioual method of spending yesterday than in tho heat and din and conglomerate confusion ofthe city. An aliuring attraction to such were the races at Monmouth Park. It was no wonder, there- fore, that the large and commodious steamboats of the New Jersoy Ratiroad Company, which made special trips to carry visitors to the race course, were crowded to their utmost capacity. Of course, as it always is, the sail down tho Bay was delightfully Invigorating, and after the previous sleepless night in tho city filled everybody with new hfe, and sharpened the wits for intelligent enjoyment. It was a peculiarly notable fact, however, that among the throngs of passengers were those whose faces one 18 not accustomed to on the race course, These were visiting strangers, who had the good sense to foresee a day’s glorious ond healthtul sport, Skimming over the gently ruitied waters of the Bay, during the progress of which a!l on board, stran- gers and otherwise, descanted on the entrancing beauties of the charming scenes, the boat soon lands at the Sandy Hook pier, where the passengers were speedily transferred to the long rows of cars in waiting, when, in atrice, they were whirled away to the race course, twelve miles distant Monmouth Park in a sbort time presents a lively and picturesque scene. From tho West End, Howland House and other leading ho- tels, and from nearly every cottage at the Branch, omnibuses and carriages bave been coming in loaded with passengers, All tho notables of the Branch were there, and such a throng of prilliantty toiletted ladies bas rarely been scen on the grand stand. Pool selling, as usual, soon became lively, while the uniquely costumed jockeys were putting their horses in trim for the prelimimary race, A good feature, so characteristic of this race course, was the promptness with which the races were run. Punctually at the hour announced for the sports to begin the bell was rung at the judges? stand. Tho races were all interesting and some un- usually exciting. Very naturaily the culminating intor- est to the great majority of the spectators was the steeple chase, There is a daring risk in this sort of racing that 1s ingviarly provocative of public enthusiasm. Hap- pily it was a spirited race and nobody hurt, making all well that ends well in this dangerous species of turf pastime. The races were finished st an early hour, and the crowd again departed for tho waiting cars, omni- buses and carriages, as the case might be. It had been a glorious day’s sport, and to those who returned to tho city there was a delightful renewal of the pleasant morning sail, to most, after all, really the most enjoy- able feature of the day, A circumstance in connection with the day’s racing is the fact that, notwithstanding the attractions elsewhere on the Fourth of July, and pre-eminently so this year, alacge attendance can be secured at Monmouth Park race course on this day. It was a serious problem to tho managers, but the problem has now been satisfactorily settled. THR RACING, There were five races on the cards, Tho day w: lovely, the track good and fast time was anticipated and made. THE VIRST RACE was the Hopeful Stakes, the value of which was $500, added to a sweepstakes of $50 each, play or pay, for two-year-olds, the second to receive $100 and the third horse $50 out of the stakes; the distanco half a mile; colts carrying 110 Iba., fillies 107 Ibs, For this event there were ten starters, comprising P.

They soon met another wall, over which Busy Bee led tea lengths, Weasel second, Colonel Nelligan third, Bullet tourth, Stanford fi Going to another wall further on, Busy Bee still showing the way, Weasel next, the latter jumped past tho side of the wall, instead of over it, like th others, and this misbap threw him out of ther Busy Bee continued to lead down to tho lower turn, Colonel Nelligan second, Bullet third, Stunford fourth, going around which two brush fences were topped, and then tho horses turned their heads toward the people and the stands, On the way up, and near the furlong pole, was a wall, over which Busy Bee led eight lengths, siligan second, three lengths abead of Bullet, lengths abead of Staniord, The Lorses next came up to the water Jump, In front of the Grand Stand, and whon Busy Bee reached there ste bolted, and Colonel Nelligan was tho first horse over the water, Bullet close up, second, twenty lengihs akead of 'Stantord, these three being now tho only borses in the race, Bullet closed on Neliigan after leaving the water, and the horses ran to the wall in the muddle of the field, over which Neliigan ied one length, Stanford stili far behind, where he remained for the re: mainder of the race. Bulet and Nellizan were the ouly competitors and all eyes were on them. They jumped a brush jence near the quarter pole, and then, Wheeling tothe right, faced the club house, where they eu countered another good sized wall. ’ Nelligan led two Jengths over his Wall and was that much auead when he jumped the wall in the middle of the field, and ther made for the entrance to the regular track, which was, about midway bei ween the quarter and half-mile poles, Colonel Nellizan took the track with a length the best of it, but before he reached the hLurdie at the half-mile pole Bullet was lapped on him and they jumped to- gether. The horses ran sido and side around the lower turn and came yoked on to the home- stretch, A very exciting race ensued to the list hurdie, which was stationed just above the furlong Ppoic, and this the horses took together.

Fully 12,000 persons witnessed the regatta trom the banks of the river and house tops adjacent Much importance was attached to it from the fact that the oarsmen of New York, Pittsburg and Boston who are to represent their respective cities im the Centennial Regatta at Philadelphia, participated im the contest. It was expected that crews ‘rom Portland and Halifax would contend, but neither putin an ap- pearance. The most important races were tho single scull and four-oared shell. ‘The judges were promptly on hand at the time specie fied, eight o'clock, and shortly afterward a gun was fired to bring the mon into line for the first race, whic was for Whitehall boats for a purse of $125; $75 for the first, $50 for the second, There were ten enirics and six starters, The Gookin Brothers, puled by R. Gookin and 8, Gookin, wom the first pr m9 easily in lim, 403. The Edward Daniels, rowed by T. G, Butler and Frenchy Jonson (colored), came in second in 18mm. 173, The second race was for double soul! shells, distanee two m! for a purse of $225—$150 to the first and $75 to the second, and had nine entries and three starters, viz. L. Cavitt and B, Poweil, of Pitsburg; T. ©, Butler and Frenchy Johnson, and J. N. Henry and P, Diskin, Cayitt and Powell took tho lead at the start amd held it throughout, wiuning easily in 14m, 403, 2 race for the second piace was Yery interesting be- en the other two boats, Heary and Diskin holding - cond piace unt! within haif a mile of the finish, when Butier and Frenchy (ook the lead and held it to the finish, aking the distance in 16m.38, and Henry and Diskin in Jom, 158. The third race was for single sculls, distance twe miles, for a parse of $225; $190 to the firat and $75 te the second. A great dea! of imterest was manifested 1 this rave, as it was thought that Bigho, Coulter and several other known profossionals would take @ hand in this race, but the two tormer failed to answer the call of the starter, ‘Tuere wore ten eatries anc starters, viz. :—Jobn A. Landers, Salem; John Mek! and T. C. Butier, Boston; .P. Louther and L. Cavitt, Viusburg. Landers took the lead at the s.art and held it throughout, winning in 15im, 12%; McKiel second, time 10m 26s; Butler third, time 13m 39s. ; Louther fourth, ime 10m. 48; Cavitt last, time not taken, ‘The fourth race was for four-oared working boats; distance three miles; prizes, $200 and $lu0 There were eighteen entries apd uine starters, The City Point crew won in 20m, 438. The Lake Una Boat Club crew, amateurs, were second; tine, 20m. 51a The Couller crew, of Pittsburg, consisting of Coulter, Cas vitt, Powell abd Loutuer, third; time, 2Lin. 328, The regatta torminated with a raco for tour-oared sholls; distance six mues; prizes of $500 and $250, the largest prizes ever offered The prizes were en- larged tuis year as an inducement to crews who intend to row in ihe Centennial regitia at Philadelphia, in order that Boston people might see what wher chauces aro for carrying off the honors at Phiadelphia, For this class of boats there were live entrics and three starters—nammely, tho Biglin crow, of New York; the Couiter crew, of Pitts. burg, and ihe Fauikner-Regan crew, of Boston, Owing to uh accidental damage to Coulter's boat on the way from Pitsburg they were obliged to enter in a working boat, which they did soicly tor the purpose of saving the second prize, which would not have been given had but two boats started, The Faulkuer-Regan crew were the favorites at odds of 100 to 35 agaist the Held, The Faulkaer-Regan voat went to the tront at tho moment the word for starting was given, but did not maintain tho Jead more than an eighth of a mile, when the Bigiin crew putin a flne spurt and took the lead and at tie “pump”? three-quarters of a mile’ up were tuily four lengths in advance, rowing at the raio of thirty-six strokes per minute, while tho Fauik Regan crew wero “spurting” ber up to thirty-nine strokes, Atthe miloand a# hall stake the Bighn boat turned twenty-three seconds in advance aud came dowa the finish of the third mile, rowing thirty-seven strokes to the minute, making tho frst three miies in 19m, 55s, he Faulkner-Regan crew made one of the prettiest turns ever seen on the river w the three-mile stake and lessened the gap betweer them and the Biglin crew somewhat, but all their ef forts seemed in vain, as the Bighn crow again began increase the lead. ‘The water at about this time be to get “choppy,” and the wasiboards of Bigiin’s boa. gave way, causing ttto imumediately Hil, Two of the crew jumped-overboard and were taken on board tht Starter’s tug, aud the other two rowed the boat bome, This accident, of course, gave the race to the Fauikner an orew, who rowed leisurely home, making the entire distaace in 49m. 5458. Had iv not been tor this accident the Biglin crew un- doubtediy would have won the race, thereby wiping it the defeat of last year, as they had start enough as the time it occurred to have won the race, During te progress of the second race, part of the railing ou the bank of the river gave way from the pressure of the crowd on it, precipitating tifteen or twenty persons into the water; but fortunately a police boat was near at han: d rescued them all YACHTING NOTES.
