An Appreciative Crowd Witness Two Trotting Contests and a Running Race. Dick Swiveller, Commonwealth and Derby the Winners. Hantrorp, Conn, August 29, 1876. The third annual summer tneeting of the Connect- ieut Stock Breeders’ Association began at the Charter Oak Park, three miles west from this place, this alter- noon, under the most favorable auspices. There was very fair attendance, probably numbering two thou- sand spgctators, all of whom appeare‘t satisfied with the trotting and running that took place. This course 18 one of the best appointed in this country, and the yandscape in all directions surrounding the enclosure is simply grand. ‘Tho track is laid outas all correctly fashioned ones should be, that is, with two stretches of a quarter of a mile each, the turns taking up the other parts of the mile, Tho stables are at the lower part of the course, as far trom the entrance as possible, and entirely away from the public Thore are threo large stands facing the homestretch which were crowded with spectators. The track was in most excellent order, it having had water carts pouring over it until noon, when it was in the most superb condition for making fast time Three races came off, the first being a trotting rage between horses that had never beaten 2:86, the second for horses of the 2:24 class and a ranuing raco of mile heats; allot which came off promptly and reflected credit on the management. In the first trotting contest thefe were twelve entries, five of which came to the post. These were J. Golden’s buy gelding Dick Swiveller, Phelps & Co.’s bay mare | Sadio Howe, Nye & Foster’s gray mare Mambrino Kate, A. B. Post’s brewn gelding Big Fellow, Walter Bassford’s bay mare Carrie N., C. Green’s brown mare Rose, William Sargeant’s bay gelding Lafitte, W. H. Pock's bay stallion Voltaire, R. M. Anderson’s bay stallion Enfield, W. Van Valkon- burg’s bay gelding Moose, and A. L. Parson's bay geld- ing Arlington, John McGrew’s bay gelding Romeo being withdrawn, Dick Swivoller was the first choice in the pool sales, Mambrino Kate second in favor, the others selling for very low figures. Just beiore tho start, however, Mambrino Kate sold up for very nearly as much money as Dick Swiveller.

Three horses were en- tered, comprising Daly Brothers’ bay mare Lorena, by Revolver, dam Gentle Annie, 6 years old; J, G. Be- thune’s bay gelding Burgoo, by Hurrah, dam kmina Downing, 5 years old, and Dr. Lyach’s gray colt Derby, by Eugene, dam by Sovereign, 4 years old, Burgoo was the favorite over the field, Burgoo was distanced the first heat, which was given t6 Lorena. Derby won the second and third heats and the race. The follow- ing are tho details of the day’s sport:— THE FIRST TROT.

Dick Swiveller won the heat by haif a length in 2:26, Mambrino Kate second, four lengths ahead of Carrie N,, the latter a neck in front ef Sadie Howe, who was tive lengths im {rent of Big Fellow.

Yime to quarter pole, 374 seconds, Mambrino Kate made a second break, and Carrie N. being close up to her, the latter's wheel climbed over that of Kate's, and Carrie's was upset, throwing the driver heavily to the ground.

This distance they held tnroughout the spirited con- test, passing the stakevoat 14s, in advance of the biue caps. Time, lim, 3s. The average number of strokes to the minute puiled by both crews was about thirty- two. A lively contest in double-scull working boats fol- lowed. This race was open to residents of Yonkers not members of the Palisade Boat Club. Five boats started, but two of them gave out after going over half the length of the course. This race was won by Will- yam Allison #nd F, Post in 13m. 57448, D. Fisher and G.

Tne sloop yacht Caprico, Mr. Dickinson, from New York, passed Whitestone yesterday P, M. en rout for Newport. A MODEL STLAM YACHT, Mr. J. B. Herreshoff, the well-known yacht builder, of Bristol, Khode Isiand, has just launched another tiny steam eraft that is hkely to attract attention. She liad yesterday an excevaingly successful trial trip up the Hudson River, and in the evening started for Puila. deiphia, The Viola, for such is the name of the hand some little steamer, measures fifty-one fect over all, nine feet six inches beam, and draws about four feet and a balf of water, She has one of Herroshoi’s patent safety coil boilers, which is considered the main feature of her interior arrangements, Her machinery is very low, and sho is quite stoudy tn the water even in rough weather, She can carry steam to tho extent of The boiler itseif consists of 300 feet of two inch wrought iron tube capable of standing 2,000 pounds to the mch the weignt of the engine is ex- tremeiy ‘ight and takes up lite room The water is from the sea imo the top of the coil.

The priveipal advautages are, in the first plac ty ; Pext, that any kind of water m ve used for feeding the boiler. And aguin, the owner claims that it can be run at very light pressure, and thus more economy is attained, and lighter and sualier engines can be used, The feed water, as al- ready mentioned, is pumped constantly by a paump at tached to the engine, This feed water on entering the upper end of the coil is nearly all converted into steam during its discharge irom the coil, indeed, to all ap- | pearauces, the machinery seems to be unexceptuonabie, Mr J.B. Herresnofl and his nied brothers have al ready been Highly complimented for the ingenuity and ability they have dispinyed. [he Viola is a very pretty vesel, and did excellent work yesterday.
