» (NORICAN” JOCKEY” CUT Second Day of the Fall Racing Meeting. ‘Fair Track and Good Attendance. FIVE INTERESTING EVENTS. Janet Norton, Sultana, Tom Ochiltree, Vigil and Deadhead the Winners. ‘The programme of the second day of the fall meeting at Jerome Park embraced five events, concluding with B bandicap steeplechase, No small bill that, and calcu- lated to arouse anticipations of no mean day’s sport, but its fulfilment justified them all. Tho atten- @ance was considerably better than on the previous @ay, Vehicles were more numerous and there wasa larger representation of the fair sex, the latter aug- mentation provably being caused by tho fact thata steeplechase was on the card, When itis added that Bo finer weather could bave been vouchsafed, ono can, without difficulty, picture 1o himself with what a zest the day was enjoyed. On the Bill to the right of tho grand stand were fanged a goodly number of light wagons and car- Fiages, while the little angle tothe loft of aad below the main entrance wasaiso crowded. It is amusing in off moments to stroll among the jostling jarveys who lounge hereabouts watching their turnouta, Onone sido you hear a garrulous driver engaged in an ani- mated discussion with .his overworked, sleepy or ‘stubborn old nag, endeavoring to reason him out of his Gisobliging ways. Do they understand each other? ts would seem so from the language used. After the argumentative tone has been employed in vain the airiver takes to scolding, and occasionally uses very barb language indeed. Hero is an angry driver just mm front trying to persuade an apparently docile beast to dispose himself in a way which the horse does not scem fully to comprehend, They have had a long discussion, and the driver is evi- dently getting very much annoyed. But he fails to fully convey his meaning, and, becoming abusive, ho asks the animal angrily *‘What’s tho matter with you, anyhow? Do you think I stole you?” Removeda little from this acene a group of drivers, whoso vehicles have already been secured in their proper Position, are discussing some topic of grave conse- quence tothem. One of those, on theoutside of the circle, permitting bis mind to become peculiarly en- Groxsed in the subject, tries, in » preoccupied sort of way, to get nearer the centre of the group, and uafor- tunately steps upon the toot ofa near neighbor. With a flerce look the sufferer blurts out, ‘ “——— It, isn’t America big enough without stepping on my foot?” FA Probably the man would have nad more patience if ho had noticed tho sizo of the other’s foot before speaking. Wiuhin the grounds fronting the grand stand was placed on extibition a handsome piece of plate which is to be run for on she last race of the last day of the Present meeting. Una low, square porphyry pedestal Mang three Sgures representing Washington fondling ‘& Diooded brood mare and her young toal. The figure of the mare is very fine, but that of the foal seoms vather teo muscular and compact. But as a centennial trophy the piece will be worthy of a warm contest and ‘will doubtiess be highly prized by the winnor. The scenes around the pool boxes after the first race yesterday were of an unusually interesting character. The victory of Janct Norton, ‘a rank outsider,” as the English turfite would say, sent a thrill of dehght to the hearts of a small proportion of the attending crowds, Inthe French Mutuel pools she had bat ‘twenty-two backers, and for every $5 invested a retura of $254 10 was realized, “Did you strike it this time?” was the query heard en every side, bat there were at least fifty negatives . te-every affirmative. Then there were profape com- ments on “my luck,” and superstitious betsing men suid they had seon too mary cross- eyed men and red-baired women on the way to the course. Such are the whims of the superstitious bet- timg man. There were vory long faces for a while, and it was a marvel to hear how many “came within ap ace” of having one of the lucky tickets. Indeed, if half the people who said tney contemplated investing on the winner in this event had really done so the ‘wining ticket would not have been such a prize as it Proved by long odds. Like bull or bear movements on Wall street this disturbing event unsettled the betting market almost for tho entire day, and disjointed affairs around the pool boxes considerably. At the woighing stand, as well as around the pool boxes, was gathered an interested crowd. Before and after the different races, while, the jockeys’ weights were be'ng adjusted in the little room under the judges’ stand, curious observers without pressed their faces close to the windows to see bow the thing was done, They ‘04 learned, however, that there is no mystery abuut it, the matter being easily settled by Ad Irog to or taking away the lead in the saddie cloths. But what a thin aad shrivelied lot of little men most of the Jockeys are! Seon at a distance, mounted aod arrayed in brightly colored silk jackets and flaming caps, with tight white trousers and long boots they even seem attractive, At closer range, however, fow of them are atall pretty, They nave prematurely old faces and @ sparse supply of hirsute adornment. There ig mot a pound ot spare flesh on the body of one of thom, and their limbs are so many little, thin, hard bundies ot wiry cords toughened by daily aod hourly strains to their utmost tension, While waiting to bo weighed these ancient looking youngsters chaffed and joked with each other and whispered knowingly about coming events in a crabbed and comical sort of lashion. There was not so much of a rush at the refreshment tounter under the grand stand yesterday as to make the procuring of lunch a matter o! any great difficulty. But then a more inviting lunch would probably attract better patronage. Among the visitors here were 4 few Centennial visitors. Among these were two “young fellows,” tolorably woll drassed. Approaching an attendant one of them asked:— “How much 1s the pork and beans ?’” “Them is twenty-five cents,’ said the attendant. “Do you give bread with ’em?” was the next query of the country visitor, who, on being informed that bread would be ‘thrown in,’ ead to bis companion, “We might as well have some.” 1f you want to borrow a little money and desiro to know whether your friend has been successful at the pools watch the lunch counter. There one sees inva- riably reflected the varying fortunes of speculative ob- servers from chowder and lager to champagne, oysters and salads The eye ever wanders with dolight from tho grand stand to the neighborbood of tho ciab house, the lawn and banks near which aro now sosuperbly green, But Yeaterday,as on tho day previous, only one coach stood in front, and the attendance on the buicony, though bright and {ashionabie, was not crowded by any means. The clearer sky and brighter sunshine of the day brought out upon the lawna better representa- Woo than ventured forth the day betore, and 60 little groups vccupied the benches on tho hills and on the slope lealiug down to the track. ‘The crowd on the biuf outside the park yesterday Was «yoo deal iarger tuau thatot Monday, Luadeed, scarcely a foot of grouad communding any appreciable view of the track was left unoccupied. The piace seemed alive as viewed from the club house, eo the aid of a programme und a good feld glass the ob- server at this pomt, though considerably at a disad- Yaniage ak compared with those on any of the stands Within, could have obtainod a lair view of the races, Au event occurred in the (inal race, the steeplechase, whieh, tuough an vowurrantod and somewhat dang ous experiment, caused no litte merriment Tho jockey va one of Mr, Dononue’s horses was thrown in Crussing 4 jump gp tho frst hall of the first round, and ® voure and careless looking individual, dressed in dark clothes, caugit the horse and mounted on his own fecount belore the river came up with him, Without waiting for orders he dashed olf, Joaving bis let vebind him, and with lis coat. tails flying to the wind.

Whe: Starter—Captain William M. ‘The programme was tibera! and finely arranged, and in thts age of competition on every side it is only natoral that horses should be attracted by the solid inducements of cash. Even this, however, d always command success, but Jerome is very lucky at all times, and this occasion was a St com- panion piece to the opening day in the matter of sport i the ending incidents of surprise. The warm bad done its work and the track was on Monday, having something of the not w be afraid of sending even the tolerably sound-limbed along at a racing pace. Whon the bell! rang for the introductory nine responded for the purse of $400, dash of or Pierre Lorillard’s Courier com- ost attention at the pool boxes, and the pearance of the Star Davis colt scemed to justify the opinion that he was worth something and would carry off the honors with all sail set, But there was a foursyear-old mare in She feld that bad failed to make an impression with the majority of tho fraternity, and sho proved a teaser. Lowest in the speculation save one, her im- mediate friends stood under the shadow of the auc- tioneer and quietly laid their money, with the hope that they might not be disappointed in their estimate of her worth. This was Norton’s Janct Norton, and she possessed just enough calibre to keep all her competitors in check and win a closely contested race by a head. The issue was startling to the friends of the favorite, and the surprise excited more than the usaal comments, even under the most distressing and trying back-handed Quancial blow, Dosweli’s Outcast stood second in the betting, with much coofidence in Longstafl’s Partnership, while Don- ahue’s Waco, McDaniel's Sister of Mercy, Raecy’s Leamington Ii., divney’s Love Chase and Medinger’s Libbie L. all bad their iriencs. Courier managed to reputation by obtaiuiug a place, yet he lucked peed and staying qualities fora winner, fhe © fortunate owners of the Mutuel tickets sold on Norton pocketed the handsome sum of $254 10 for each $5 invested. The Hunter Stakes, for three-year-old fillies, now came on the (apis, and, with Hayward dregeed tor Bel- mont’s Sultana and Fouks for her stable companion, the imported Pi there was the well-grounded suspicion that maroon and red weant to capture theevent. It was plain as a pikestaf! that grounus existed for the support that these tliies received , sur of the forty-three nominations—seven more 1! the gainst Mary and Carter, Brown’s Explosion, who were purchased in the poois im tbe order given, though Sultava and Pa- tience stood over ‘them ail two to one As the time came for hor to make play Sultana demon- strated that sho was tn something like her July form, Stakes at Saratoga fell to her owner, y like a racer and captured it by tour cond in the event, bie, while Ath: lene obtained a place, but the others were badly beaten off, apd never were of mach account. It iscvident that the winner will always be at home in frst class nen Mr. Belmont won this stake last year with Mtipa. ‘The turn in the luck of the buyers of favorites in- spired the adherents of such metnods of apecuiation to turn hopefully to the third event on the card—the Maturity Stakes, for tour-year-olus, dash of three miles. The pride of place in the quotations was readily yielded to G. L. Lorillard’s Tom Ochiltree, and the pinseess bad no cause to regret their coutident choice, ‘his was the first appearance of thia noble son of Lexington and Katona since bis victory in the Saratoga Cap in July, and ho was sent to the post iit to ruo for hig owner's lite Against him im the controversy were McGruth’s Chesapeake, Mcvaniel’s Mattie A, and Reed’s Gray Nun. None of these three, who were bunched as a field in the auc- tion sales, seemed to have lost their Lioom, but they failed to have the fect with this genuine raccnorse, The supremacy of Ochiltree in the market was never once 1n danger, and, although no fault can be found with Cnesapeake, the distance didn’t suit with Tom be- side fim. The same can be noted of Mattie A., but once during the fight, on the Jast mile, when Matto moved up and pone Tom for an instant, some of the Jess sanguine thought they were in ‘‘Queer street,” yet when Ochiltree sauled away in earnest these fears wore quickly dispelled. He wou th race just as it had bocn planned for him to capture, bat is, with lots in hand, and Barbeo looking uround after his competitors ho t pass the judges’ eyes one length to the good. tie A. stack with some troublesome pertinacity to Chesapeake, as MoGratn’s representative could only puther a sbort neck behind bum atthe finish; Gray Nun was of wo account, being 100 yards down at the straight when the timers finished their work. T three miles were run in 6:43, exactly the same as last year, whem won by Countess. ‘The losers, wanting to forget Ochiltree, turned to h of One mile and a balf, for which three num- only were hoisted on the telegraph board. Me- 1's Vigil was complimented with the choice and with good reason im tho bargain, soeing that he won by a length after a fairly brilliant race. Rumor war busy with the merits of West's Preston and thero were many who felt that the tip bad been given them straight, when” bis oxpabiiities were greatly extolled. Ho de @ gallant tight, but it was a forlorn hope, as when gpileas sentthe Son of Virgil for the race he did his work, und ndthing there could kave estopped him = In- voice was.uot disgraced in the scrimmages that oc curred, though he was two lengths away when the stand was reached by the biue and red. The alternvon’s amusement, which haa opened in such earnestness, seemed to be destined to close with spirit and zest. That it did not is no fault of the offi- as the handicap steeplechase of presentod charm for tho jumpers, and a liber@ entry was the result. Six started, the absentees being Resolute and Trouble. Tko tirst move was to make Sutcliffe’s Bullet the favorite, and be continued to be # warin tirst choice until the Hag dropped, As a raco it was a failure. Apart from the antics played by four of the performers early ia the struggle, matters did not progress with much smoothness, for there was a spill, and but two got around out dis. playing great clumsiness, and there was algo a dispo- sition to shirk the jum Donabue’s team, Deadhead and Stanford, were well thought of, standing second ia the pools, while Reed’s Doubtful, Murray’s Captain Hammer, and Callaban’s Bay Rum were ‘‘ilelders.’” Bullet and Deadhead saved the event from being a failure, and they made the journey together go lively, and 80 tenaciously did each dis- pute possession with the other, that when Doadhead, after a spirited and determined battie, landed tbe winner by a short three-quarters of « length, there were merry times among a division who think Donabue’s stable in a steeplechase, if it 1s represented, iz & good tbing to remember. ‘The riders ot Deadhead and bullet wero cheered as they finished. Doubsiul ‘was placed, bat It he is not quickly cured of roiusing tho Jumps, the sooner he takes leave of bis provent ‘vocation the better for ail parties concerned, DASH OF ONE MILE Junxoxus Park, New Yoru, Tuesday, October 8, 1876.— Sgcoxp Vay ov tHe Fat Racixo MExtING oy THB Amexicam Jockey Cius.—First Race—Purse tor all ages; winners of $1,000 to carry 5 ibe, ext: boaten maidens allowed, iY four years old or leas, 7 ibs. ; if five or more, 12 lba; entrance five per cont, the amount going to second horse, Ouo E.

Under the club house biuff the latter moved up to the front, and th time Sultana forged into second pla third, Mary fourth and the bobbing Explosion at the tail end of affairs. Curving round along the green sward, out of sight, Patience oarried on the ranming, but be- fore she emerged into clear view her speed had been checked, and, swinging into the jower tura, the rep- resentatiye of the cherry and blue, Ath cus out their work, and at the head of the straight she was striding gamely along one Jengtb tn front of Sultana, with Explosion the same distance in Ler wake, with Mary and Patience in the rear. Komping by the fur- long, Hayward gave Sultana her head, when she col- lared Athlone, quickly Gisposed of er and. passed the Judicial stand, leading half a lengtn, the mile being done in 1:51, Athlene stuck to her second place of houor with grim devermivation and was sbow- ing the way half a length to Mary at this point, Explosion two lengths further away an the imported daughter of Parmesan and Patronage trailing in the rear, Freaks notat ali worried, The issue having been made and decided by Sultana, the rest of the way could be guessed by the most obtuse, She rau gamely on and noue of the others were even on fighting terms with her. The best they could do was to yet within alengthof ber around under the bluff, but then she lengthened her stride, and at the three- quarters was two lengths away, and, never losing her- well, secured the verdict by fuur lengths. It was one as had been intended. Patience, when the first quarter of the last mile had been run, moved up from the last in the rank, and, running inte third place, stuck to Athiene closely ali the way down the straight, when at the furlong she drow out, and taking second lace, she guarded the position well and showed the jeimont’s colors in the wake of Sultana next to the winner, First and second for the maroon and red was not bad. Athlene was third, one length away, and six further astern was Mary, aud behind her Explosion, with some of her temper just a triflereduced. She has been correctly named, and the man that suggested it fet vo be gratified that ho hit the pail smack on the ead. THE WINSER—SULTANA. Sultana is a full sister to Monarchist. She was bred at Woodburn, where she was bought at the yearling sale in June, 1874, by Mr. John Hunter, the price being $2,650. He afterward sold her and Olitipa to Mr. Bel- mont for, It is said, $10,000, Sultana has four white tees, the white on the two hind legs extending half way uptotne hock. She haga small blaze, and 1s good looking generally. Sultana made her début in tho Saratoga stakes at Saratoga last year’in company with her stable com- panion Adelaide. In this race they bad to met Purole, who won easily by six lengths from Adelaide, Sultana getting the other place. She next started in the Ken- tucky Stakes, and the verdict was an exact repetition of that in the previous race. At the same meeting she won her first race, a two-year old sweepstakes of three-quarters of a mile, beating Shirley, Adelaide and tive others. This closed her two-year old career, and this spring sho began by capturing the Maryland Stakes at Jerome Park, Merciless Seeond and Patience third, Timo—1:47}, The Ladies’ Stakes saw tho same three placed as before. Sultana’s time for the mile ana a half being 2:46. Saratoga was the next raco mecting at which sho started, and on the first day she won the Travers Siakos easily from Barri- cade, Fredericktown and Ambush. Time for the mile and three-quarters, 3:153;. She was made a hot favor- ite for the Kenner Stakes, but suffered defeat by Brother to Bassett, who won very easily, ranning in greatly superior from. anything bad hitherto dis- played.

Being a big framed colt, requiring time to fill vut, Tom Ochiltree was not started until three years old at balti- more. On the first day of the spring moeting, 1875, he won the opening event, a purse for maidens, of three-quarters of a mile, carrying four pounds over- weight. Following up his successful initiation, he secured the Preakness Stakes by two lengths irom Viator, Bay Fial third and six unplaced, hese races were won in such an easy mapuer that he impressed all who saw him with the idea that be was certain to win some of the large stakes a Jerome Park, but Tom Uchiltre went off completely, failing to get any- where near the front in the Bolmunt, Jersey, Derby or Ocean Hotel Stakes, He was then thrown out of train- ing and, atter a good rest, was taken in hand for bis fall engagements. Tuo first of these was the Jerome Stakes, but in it be failed to get a place, Mr. McGrath supplying first and second in Aristides and Calvin, Joe Cerns being third. In the Aunual Sweeprtakes of two mi ud an eighth Tom Ochiltree was opposed to Chesapeake and Asconsion, and sv small was his chance of winning in tho opinion of the speculators that the odds were over seven to one t him, This from winning, however, very from the much fancied Chesa- d this form to be correct, so able Dixie Stukes ovor aboat him. The track was heavy, which just si him, and he wou by a yength from wor and Joe Corns, Aristides fourth, In the Breckenridge Stakes Tom Ochiltree had to put up an additional tive pounds for his win in the Dixie when he started for twonty to one was obta nd he only got third place to r and Viator. Early this year ho paged into the bands of Mr. GL. ‘Lorillard for $7,500 and certain contingencies, and a remar' cheap purchase ho proved, tor in succession he w the Baltimore Cup, of $) Cluv Handie: M nd & lozen lengths. In ‘tor, Ww! and $1,550 was credited to bis account. The value of tho Maturity Stakes to the winner this time {s $4,400, making a grand (otal so lar this year of $16,200, hisown stake not Lemy included in the calculation in accord- ance witp the Jockey Club rule. His next engagement is in the Centennial Cup, on October 12, the distance being four miles, and Mr, Lorillard baving taken a subscription ior the Bowie Stukes of four mile heats at Baltimore, doubtless intends making that bis wind- ing up race of the year. bly Si WINNERS OF THE MATURITY BTAKKA, Winner.

Tho section of the Russian Stavonic Committee in St. Petersburg sends to tho great American nation hearty congratulations with the centennial of its inde- pendence. A bundred yours have already elapsed since you, tree sons of America, have shaken off the yoke under which your selish European metropolis strove to detuin you. You broke the ties that united you with the obdurate political prejudices of Europe, carrying away with you vut of the Old World the best elements of progress, Americans, we apply bow to you at a time when Eastern Coristians, our brethren by blood and belief, are straining Whemselves in an unequal strugglo against a horde of Asiatic barbarians. They tight against the persecu- tion of intidels who, during tive centuries, insult Christianity and stop any movement toward tae civilization of the Kast. Strearos of blood are flowing, juexpresaibie horrors are committed, but Europe, with England at her head, endeavors to maintain, by all meas, ber ola shameful fetich, called *inviolability of Turkey.”’ All European nationalities have an acknow!- edged right to dispose of thomselvos according to their own will and lhking. The Slavonians alone seem to be forever vowed to the arbitrariness of treaties deciding their fate without their knowledge or the t inquiry as to their agreement. ‘The lot of being sons of Europe falls to the share of Slavonians, evidently beoause the Old World does not cease to irighten itself into an imaginary shadow that we “Russias seem to be ready, alter having delivered them from Turks, to enclose them in the framo of our already too extensive domiuivns.”” But Russia now shows brightly her disinterested and love for peace, withholding ber indiguation and contenting | herself in mteroeding for her brethren with other Powers, who. have been only with difficulty induced to favor that cause. Nevertheless the conscience of the Russian pation {8 sensitive and does not possess capacity of remaining iudifferent at tho sight of w hoi ribie picture of ferocities committed upon Christians im ‘Turkey, The Russian nation tries, as much as pos- Bible, 10 soothe its conscience by giving freedom to her disinterested love for outraged and torwured brethren, by univeraal-and inexhaustible offerings of money, supplies aud medical stores. But the wants of the un- nappy Eastern Christians are very numerous. We co not beg tor material ard from any nation of Europe wich prefers to be an impasaive spectator of crueitics disbonoring to our century. We apply only to the great, noble and freo nation of the New World, which is always on the side of the suffering and tho oppressed, Do not refuse to sustain with your sympathies tho sacrea work of our rising brethren who are not allowed to enjoy the benefits of liberty and civilization. Help, powertul and glorious nation, to open the door wh: romains closed only for them, and let these fresh human forces penetrate through it into # new life of freedom and happiuess, As- sist in the establishment of a durable peace, which is so needed by everybody, but which can be only possible after the deliverance of the de- Jenceless Eastern Christians from their oppressors, Not by conserving at any price the present status quo in the East, as Europe thinks, ean a solld peaco be preserved, but only by introducing the principles so dear to you, iree citizens of a happy, independent country, by granting human rights to men, by giving ) them liverty to act, think and wurk as they like, aud by substituting for the present dark ignorance the reteet light of Knowledge, PHILIPPOFF. ©.
