@ of experience will acknowledge the downward te: THE ENGLISH TURF. ENTERNATIONAL RACING IN ENGLAND—THE ENGLISH AND FRENCH JOCKEY CLUBS AT LOGGEBHEADS—INTEBNATIONAL BRACES. Loxpox, Jan, 31, 1877. Joho Ball, in his sporting capacity, is buttoning up his pockets. Free trade 1s all very well as applied to commerce, avd has suited his shopkeeping propensi- thes admirably ; but ho is beginning to doubt the adapt- ability of the principle to bis pet pastime, racing, That eminent sportsman, Lord Falmouth, has laid Detore the Jockey Club a resolution which, if carried, ‘will pat an end to the present system of unreserved ‘and open-handed welcome to all comers, ard establish in its place “protection and reciprocity.”” The liberal- ity of the English Jockoy Club for somo time past, in- deed, bas been extraordinary, and must have been elmost as surprising os it was gratifying to foreign sportsmen and owners of racehorses, Foremost among the rivals of England on the ground over which she once hejd undisputed superiority, is France, Not maby years ago the French had no raceborses and no propensity whatever for raciug; they were, in fact, almost the least ‘horsey’ people in Europe, jowing nothing about and caring little for the improvements in brocding, which, carried on througha Jong series of years, have produced that highest form of equine perfection, the racehorse. But having ac- quired frum England the taste for racing they imported English borses, English trainers and English jockeys, ‘and baving thus created their own ‘‘turf,’’ have re- peatedly beaten John Bull on his own ground, with his Own weapons, and carried home across tho “silver * gtreak”? thousands upon thousands of pounds of his money and much of his ‘‘plate.”” Open to alithe world have been these modern Ulympic games of England, ‘and lately there has even been further concession to foreigners in the caso of one of the most jamous of aces, the Goodwood Cup, liberal allowance of weight ‘Deing given to horses: toaled out of Great Britain which might compete for it, VOREIGN WINNERS. The result of this free trade system bas been that al- though English bred horses have gonerally beld their Own against their foreign adversarics, the spectacie has Irequently been witnessed of horses with names which sometimes huve preseuted an amusing stumbling block to the gentlemen of the “ring”? winning the the choicest prizes of the English turf. The Derby and the Oaks have twice fallen w foreigners, the Ascot and Gooawood Cups zach thrice, while last year the Middic Park aud Dewburst Plates, the most important two-year-old races of tne year, were carried off by a Frencu colt. Upon the thoroughly sound and sportsmanlike principle of ‘may the best Man win,” there 1s nothing in all this to complain of, Dut the grievance of the case tu Knglish minds 18 that the French Jockey Ctub have not returned the compii- ment of throwing their races oper to Engiand in the Same muuner, but bave persisteatly maintained u close aod gent exclusivencss, restricting all their im. Ftant prizes, except the Grand Prix de Paris, to ‘orses bred in their own country. Under these cir- cumstances Lord Falmouth bas determined to bring the subject, delicate aud difcult though it be, strongly And unhesitatingly belore the English Jockey Club, His resolution wili be couched in the following terms:— “That no produce stakes or weight-lor-age race to be entered for aa foals, yearlings or two-year-olds shall be open to foreigu-bred horses, unless specially adver- tised 0 be so,'or unless such horses were bred in those countries which throw open their races ou equal terms to British borses.” Alluding to some remarks which appeared in tho Daily Telegraph upon this proposed reevlut:on, Lord Falmouth has written the tollowing imteresting letter to thut journal: LORD FALMOUTH ON WKIGHT-FOR-AGE Racks. Commencing by usserting the desirability of placing Detore the public some of the reasons which have in- duced him to submit to the Jockey Club ‘so distaste. ful a measure,” the noble lord and veteran sportsman goes on to say :—*Several years ago 1 called the atten- tion vf some of the leading members of tbe club to the inevitable consequences of ‘hrowing open all our races, as a matter of course, to the’ horses of other couutfies, but thero were not sufficient data ut that time to lead to any definite conclusions, and the matter was treated us e merely of opinion. Siuce then every word urged against the practice is being borne out by facts, aud when 1t 18 eusily seen thut, owing to the prohibitions Aguinst our horses running abroad, the number of mares Kept im the country bas been apoually decreasing, that English breeders are deprived of almost every joreigu market, excepting, be 1 said to their praise, that of the United States of America, and | that jor the same cause the couniry is now further Ubreatened with an additional joss by the removai of breeding establishments to the Continent, it is surely high time gome steps were taken to stop these disas- trous results, and it 1s only to be hoped they may not be too late, Every one conversant with the subject of horse raciug is doubtless aware that it now virtually repolves itself into two classes, one of which may be termed the handicap and plating clement, the otber the weignt for age; and the common complaint has been that, while the former has greatis in sed, the latter with difficulty bows its own—ss muck so that at the majority of meetings we have but little else than short-course handicaps and seliing races; and even at Newmarket last autumn, one whole day was devoted to shis Cescription of sport. CaUses OF THY DECLINE IN WRIGHT FOR AGE RACING. “We have always been told that weight for age racing Is the most worthy of support, and I believe this view ts generally indorsed by the country; but every mau dency above referred to is vnly the natural cons quence of a practice which allows (pour encourager les autres, I suppose) large sums of money subscribed by the few followers left of this best branch of the pur- suit to go annually te the improvement of the horses of other nations, whose breeders, juaging {rom the in- trease of racing in recent yeurs oa the Continent, have not been siow to proiit” by such ‘innocent? policy, fhe mistake has beenggm,ussuming that the loreign tontributions to our stakeé here bh Jerbalanced any loss English horse owners may bave suffered. It is heartily to bo wished it was so, ana | tan voly say that it it wore, | for one would never against tho prosent state of things; but, and, men finding their accounts year alter year bad, naturally, and without knowing why, ar tnsensibly driven from weight-tor- age racing to platiog—a sport which foreign mations patronize but little in comparison to ourselves, ‘10 18 an crror to suppose that the principles of tree trade are compromised by the proposition now belore us, in- asmuch ns by them the foreign competitor supplies us with a necessary in return tor our gold, whereas in this case be runs off with our rooney and his goods too, WINNINGS OF FORKIGN STABLES IN 1876. “Last year—not an exceptioval one—the Continental borse: ted betweea £14,000 and £15,000 over and above their owners’ contributions to our woight-lor- age stakes. | snould like to kaow how it can possibly be expected that those Eoglisb bore owners who ran ext them, and on whom the whole burden fei, can subscribe as largely this year to this description ot face us they would have doue if they bad not had to un- fergosuch a drain upon their purses. ‘'hev cannot gacrifice 80 mueh to tne jookers-on who may ort, but do not pay. We are told that to pass such a rule would be tantamount to an acknow!l- edgement of inferiority or an act of submission. It §y dificult to understand such reasoning when what we domaud is to be piaced in a position tg attack; and, to show the readiness of this county to assert its superiority, I may call your attention to the circumstance, that while in our very next Derby the whole of the nations of the Continent pat together contribute twenty-eight subscriptions, to the Grand Prix this ‘tight [litte islaud’ alone fur- Bishes 108. Nor shouid the high sounding purases of “mendiy rivalry,’ ‘British tiberality’ and other sentimental feehugs be any longer permitted to inter- fere with matters of bard business in which British interests are involved. It is because I believe the Character und consequent value of our bhorses—which lam contident are as govd as cver—are by our policy ming unjustly traduced, our yearlings rendered utterly Value.ess on the Continent, and the eireus-iike description of racing promoted, that | bave given notice of my motion; and ‘f the country prefers to uphold the present policy it can do so, but, if it docs, Mt may be certain of one thing, and that ts, that our breru' nd weight-for-aye racing must m become history.

A STRANGE Pall Mall Gazette:—A strange cpidemic among horses has made its appearance in some parts of Scot- land, and there aro, it is stated, more than 600 horses at the present moment suffering from its effects in Nd- tmburgh.

JOHN ¥, BERLIGAN CHOSEN TO FILL THE VACANCY IN THE FIRST ASSEMBLY DISTRICT. The First Assembly district was tho scene of a great political battie yesterday, which, though necessarily limited ip area, was as tlercely contested by the rival political factions as the Presidential contest, Tho attempt to harmonize tho antagonisiic sec- tions of the Tammany Hall democracy the night previous had proved a failure, the fourteen contesting claimants for membership of the General Committee having withdrawn from the nominating convention and placed a candidate of their own im the field, Tho republicans were repre- sented by Joba H, Grimes, while John F, Berrigaa and John Moore divided the strength of tho democracy. ‘Tho eloction was to fill the vacancy in the office of Assemblyman caused by the death of the late James Healy. A deep and abiding disaffection prevails in the district toward the present Tammany regi and the election yesterday afforded a seeming chanco for the hostile elements to test thar relative political importance. Accordingly the leaders on both sides were especially active and rallied their adherents at an early hour in the day for active operations, Tho thorough knowledge cach had of the other's modo of Operations stimulated both to vigilance, but never- theless the election passed of quietly at tho polls, a fow arrests only being made tor illegal voting, In the barrooms the discussions waxed hot and were continued until a late hour in the evening, the merits and dew merits of *Nick” Muller and Juuge Duffy respectively being the principal topic, At Edward Cabill’s, No, 17 Park row, all parties were represented, and vic- tor und vanquished congratulated or condoled with each other over the result of the fray, At four o'clock the polls were closed and the canvass Legan, cager eyes scanuing the ballots and scrutinizing closely every wevement of the canvassers, The result was a decisive victory for Jobu F. Berrigan, democrat, whi received 1,553 votes. John Moore, his democr. competitor, recetved 895, aud Jobw H. Grimes, repub- ican, 878 votes, Three thousuud six hundred and twenty-lour votes in all were cast, a large vote in @ peculiarly local'contest and showing the intense fecl- ing which antmates the politicians of tho district aud the bitterness Gf their struggle for ascendaucy, THE FATE OF MICHAEL CLANCY, FURTHER CONFIMATION OF THE REPORT OF HIS ILL TREATMENT, As further finvestigatiun is made into tho case of the alleged ill treatment of the dead convict, Michael Clancey, it becomes more apparent that his death was ue, not to pneumonia, as was given by the prison doctor's certiticate, but to the biows, kicks and other ill treatment in the prison at Clinton, The following is the certificate torwarded from the prison and Aled with the Board of Heaith tn this city :— Thereby certily that Michael Clancy died at Dannemera Stute Prison, Clinton county, New Yorx, January 22, 1877, Disease, congestion of lungs and pneumonia; nothing con- taious. J. PLATT FOO", wD. worn to before me at Piattabure, January 29, 1877; J.P. BRENNAN, Notary Public. Those, however, who saw the body say that thero was no appearance of death from disease, but, on the coutrary, it presented every appearance ‘of tll usage. The wounds, cuts, bruises and stripes could not have proceeded from pneumonia. Mr. Arthur Kimuter, a clerk in the office of W. F, Howe, saw the body’ and noticed particularly the wounds, and gave it us bis opinion that they resulted from beavy blows, which caused the man’s death, Mr. Daniel Sullivan also saw the body and the wounds, und unhesitatingly says that the mau was mur- dered, ‘He also saw tue stripes on Clancey’s buck, showing that be bad been severely beaten. Mr. Samuel G, Barnard, also a clerk in Howe's ottive, wrote a letter to the chaplain of the prison de- scribing these wounas, contusions and bruises and ask- jug for un expianation of them, but as yet bas re- ceived no answer. The letter which Mrs, Clancy received from the chaplain contained no allusion to her husband’s illness, but merely stated that he died resigued. ‘This was considered very strange by ber iricnds aud lawyers, aud they all pronounced the idea of pneumonia us an alter thought, NTH WARD TAXPAYERS. Afow weeks ago a number of taxpayers of the Tenth ward met to devise some means of alleviating the pres- ent heavy taxation of the district, and it was decided to call a general meeting of taxpayers of the ward. In accordance with this resolution a meeting was held yes- terday evening at No, 108 Allon street, About any nen were present, representing, as it was claimea, about $4,000,000 worth of real estate, When the meet- ing bad been called to order the election of officers was roceeded with. Fred Frick was chosen President, Peter Denderiein id John Rein as Vice Presi- dents, Charles Denbeimer and Join Numaun as secretaries and J. Raedy treasure: In the course of the meeting one of the members said that within the last yoar property in the Tenth ward bad deteriorated from jorty to fity per cent, and that heveriheless the owners, in proportion to other wards, were assessed $300,000 more. He moved that a com- mittee of thirteen be appointed to confer with the ‘Tax Commizsioners and prepare some means enabling the society to effectually produce some change for the better. This motion was adopted, The mecting then adjourned tll next Wednesday. T. FLORENCE’S FALSE HAIR, She wasa dusky daughter of Africa. The officer rolled ber into the Washington Place Police Court.

The Itps—conted with Bayloy’s fine cut—opened up and endeavored to draw into a capa- cious mouth her chin, nose and cars, “You here again, Florence?

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE GENERAL INSPECTOR OF KIFLE PRACTICE, Colonel George W. Wingate, general inspector of Rifle Practice tor the National Guard, State of New York, rendered a short time ago to the Adjutant Gen- eraladetailed report of the year’s rifle practice by the State National Guards at Creedmoor and clso- where, He gives a sketch of the progress of militia ritle practice im this State during the last three or four years, The State prize is shot for at Creedmoor by teuins from nearly all the regiments.

The speaker said wo were mercantilo, hard, hasty, aiflicted with a res:lossness fatal to the spirit of con- templatiog, that our unrestrained impulses result in incessant disturbance, Our great inventions have all contributed to this.

At the close of the address the President tendered bis thanks and the thanks of the club to Mr, Elderkin for tbe treat they had enjoyed. Rev.
