SIX HIGHLY INTERESTING RACES. } nada, Grenade, Tom Scarlet, Wilful, Lewnington-Emily Fuller Filly, Skylark and Problein the Wingers. The weather was dolightful yesterday down by the sea and throughout Monmouth county, N. J., but nowhere more balmy than in and sbout the | Monm: Park race course. The whole place looked frosh and green from the washing it received from the heavy rain of the night before, At an early hour in the morning people sojourning at Long Branch for the summer were on the roads leading to the course, and after all the trains from this city, Philadelphia and other places had de- posited their cargoes of human freight within the enclosures the crowd was a large one, Promptly at the hour for racing business to begin the bell rang, and goon afterward the horses engaged for the first raco began to make their appearance on the track. and take a preliminary gallop to open their pipes. The first race was adash of three-quarters of a mile for two-year-olds, which had six starters, and was won by the favorite, Mr. G. L. Lorillard’s bay colt Grenada, by King Alphonso, out of Mattie Gross. Mr, Crouse’s filly Canaan ran a good second. Grenada is a fine sized, well shaped colt, and ran like his sire did when on the turf, There is money in this young gentleman should no accident befall him. The second race was a dash of a mile and a furlong, which had five starters for the purse, and the winner turned up in Mr. Stearns’ colt, Tom Scarlet, who secured his maiden victory. Tom is a yery likely, well shaped colt, and will be in many of the coming purse races from now until snow falls. The third race was a free handicap sweepstakes for all ages, a dash of a mile and a half, which after a most exciting atruggle was won by Mr. G. L. Lorillard’s Wilful.

Belmont’s filly Lucky Hit by a neck on the post. The fifth race was mile heats, and it took three heats to decide the affair, There were six starters, Virginian, a muscular chestnut colt, owned by Mr. Stearns, won the first heat, and then became a great favorite for the race. He was beaten the second heat by Mr. Bowle's colt Skylark, who also captured the third and the purse, But the most important event of the day seemed to be reserved for the last—s hurdle race of @ mile and a half, with six jumps, in which was the California horse Raven, who is considered the best Jumper and fastest steeplechaser between here and the land of gold.

He went on steadily aud came home ap easy winner by three lengths in 1:54. 4HE SIXTH RACE was a handicap hurule race for a purse of $400, of whieh $100 to the second; entrance free; three horses, the property of different owners, to start or no race; one mile and a half, over six hurdles. The starters were the Newport stables’ bay horse Prob- lem, by Pimlico, dam Mystery, 6 years old, 158 lbs.; Messrs. Dwyer Brothers’ gray horse Derby, by ugene, dam Kate Sovereign, aged, H, Schwartz's black colt Raven, by Mon- dam Camilla Urso, 4 years old, 143 and C. Reed’s chestnut horse Disturb- ce by Chillicothe, dam Mattie C, 5 years old, 143 lbs. Raven was the favorite for this raec, selling in the pools for $450, Problem $320, Dis- turbance $2 nd Derby $315. The horses had a capital start from the halt-mile pole and ran to the first hurdle, which was on the lower turn. This some of the horses knocked down, but which one of them coula not be ascertained. Problem took the lead and was challenged immediately by Detby, who seemed a» the race pro- greased to be “laying in” with Raven. Problem and Derby raced head and head over the hurdle on the lower turn, then to the one on the homestretch a8 if yoked together. blem and a passed the judges’ staud they were arallel, They jumped the third hurdle, which was located about eighty yards beyond the judges’ stand, together, and so dashed around the upper turn. Raven and Disturbance were half @ dozen lengths behind, running side and side. When Problem reached the quarter pole he led by a head as he passed over the fourth hardic, which was situated nver that place. Here he was two lepgths in front of Derby, and at this poiut Derby retired, having performed his part with Probiem, and then Raven moved up for an attack, Atthe hali-mile pole Problem was clear of the others, and Little, iis rider, took a pull on the horse for a moment, It was at this time that the California representative made bis run. The filth hurdle was down and the horses had a quarter of a mile of flat work, during which time Raven shut up much of the daylight on Problem. As the horses swui imto the homestretch Prob- lem led length, Raven second, oue length in front of Derby, who was leading Dis- turbance several lengths. Coming up the home- stretch to the sixth hurdle the race was very ox- citing. Problem and Raven jumped nearly together; but tne immense leap that Problem made over the brush gave him an advantage of nearly length after he landed. The black horse was forced to the top ot his speed, and he gradually closed on Problem until as the latter passed under the wire at the stand he had not more than a neck the best of the race. The backers quite astounded at the result. They that a horse could carry 158 ibs, and run @ mile anda half in 2:50, but they knew that Raven could carry 143)bs. and do the distance in about that time; hence the liberal manner in which they backed their horse, Dervy was # good horse, but Disturbance was never in the way during the race.

The races at the Brighton Beach Fair Grounds yes- teorday were four, in number, and though the first and second on the programme called out only smatl fields the large gathering of lookers-on seemed well pleased with the sport presented. The heavy rain on the evening of the Fourth made the track on the: backstretch very heavy, and conse- quently very slow. During the present week the management. will improve that portion of the track with an additional. covering. of six inches of dirt, which will ‘be: properly worked and rolled. In due time the Brighton track will offer superior attrac- tions to owners of thoroughbreds. THREE-QUARTERS OF A MILE.

Bruce’s brown colt Glon Ogle, 3 years, and Daly Brothers’ chestnut gelding Loiterer, 5 years, came to the post. The former was the fa- vorite two to one. Lwiterer went away with the lead and maintained it until Glen Ogle struck the hard ground at the’ bend of the homestretch, when he made his effort and soon showed in front by halfa length, Loiterer’s jockey did his best, seemingly, to regain the lead, but a whipping struggle ended with Glen Ogle winning by a head.

(BY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD.] Boston, July 5, 1879, Owing to unusually rough water on Charles River yesterday, the rowing regatta, the most attractive feature of Boston’s celebration of the Fourth, so fer as the sporting fraternity were concerned, was postponed until eleven o’clock to-day. At that hour a large concourse of spectators crowded the Beacon street wall, and the several excursion boats that were chartered to see the race. The water was quite lumpy, and another postpone- ment was feared, but the judges aud referee decided to start the several races and row until the water grew too rough, if it should continue getting worse. AMATEUR JUNIOR SCULLERS. Promptly at eleven o’clock the first gun was fired as a signal for-the amateur junior scullers to get into line. About five thousand people were on the course, stationed at the various points, where a view of the whole: or u part of the contests could be had. There were fourteen entries for the first race, distance two miles, and of tnese the following took positions in the order named :—A. O'Brien, D. J, Murphy, J. Meany, John Minnix, John M. Mur- phy, H. L. Badeen and, Fred Linton, At 11h, 2im, 5s, the word ‘‘go’’ was given to a grand start. Fred Linton took the lead, closely followed by O’Brien, D, J. Murphy and Meany, A very interesting race ensued tor an eighth of @ mile, the men keeping pretty close to each other. At this point o fonl occurred between Badeen and John M. Murphy. he upper stake was reached in 7m. and 10s., Meany leading. The race now be- came yory exciting, the men all seeming to keep in a bunch, but Meany gradually drew away from the others after the last quarter mile was passed, and crossed the line an easy winner, Time, 18m. 52}, O’Brien second, 19m. 571g8.; Linton third, 20m. 2)g8., arid tho others strung out. Linton claimed a foul agaist O’Brien, but as the former was not rowing in his own water his claim was not allowed. PROFESSIONAL SINGLE SCULLERS. |” |, ‘The next event was the race for professional scull- ers, distance three miles—mile and 4 ‘half and turn. Of the twelve entries only tive reported at the start- ing line and took positions as foliows:—Evan Mor- ris, James A. ‘Ten Eyck, Horatio R. Delano, William 8. Flick and George Hosmer. As the men formed in lune the excitement was very great, there being con- siderable money staked on the result. The word was given promptly and a good start was mude. Deleno took the water first, followed by Ten Fyck, Morris and'Flick, ‘en Eyck soon went to the front, and a close race for the first position ensued, Morris was rowing 36 strokes a minute and Ten Eyck 33. Ten Eyek held the lead to the stake, turning it first, three lengths ahead of Morris, who was tive lengths ahead of Flick. Soon atter Morris overhauled ‘Ten Eyck, took the lead, and ‘en Eyck again re- adn his original position.‘ Then, tor a short distance. they rowed almost abreast, but Morris soon drew away from his antagonist and slowly increased the lead to five lengths. Both men seemed to suffer much from the rough water, and both boats were almost swamped. Morris passed the two-mile stake in 15m. 48s., ‘Len Eyck in 16m. 188. Morris stopped to bail out his boat, and then went ahead again. Flick was be rg. # plucky race for second place when his boat was swamped. Ten Eyck pulled up to a boat, and, after bailin; water out, started ain. this" time ano haa reached Ten Eyck’s position and both men started for second place, oth, however, rowed ver; casily, Ten Eyck havinggdecidedly the best of it, an ly alive to the fact. Morris crossed the line halt a mil ead. Time, 26m. 36338. ‘Ten Kyck second, 31m. 40,8. ; Delano third, 31m. 59s, ‘This race was rowed with great ditticulty, the water being altogether too rough.

Hamilton, T. C. Murphy, John Francis, J. Buckley, J. F, Brown, Francis Baker, A. Z. Hall, A. Toushea, I. H. Hough- ton and George Lee, Houghton took the lead, and for the tirst mile one of the prettiest races that has taken place on this river for years ensued. ‘The men all uppeared to bo bunched together. Houghton, how- ever, showed alittle in front, but just before the stake was turned caught @ crab and was obliged to yield his position to Francis, who turn the stake first. Houghton was second, Brown third, George Lee fourth, and the rest in a bunch, Francis kept the lead all the way down the course, being about four lengths ahead of Houghton, who was pressed hard by Brown. ‘The wind began to freshen considerably and the water was getting rougher and rougher. Still the men stuck pluckily to their positions and seemed vent on keeping them or gaining a better one. Francis won by six lengths, time 15m. 4344s.; Houghton second, time lém. 15448.; Brown third, time 16m, 258. Lee finished fourth, dnd there was quite an interesting race between himself and Buck- ley, of Portland, for that position, Lee taking it by mn feet, DOUBLE SCULLS, The three mile race for double sculls was promptly called next, and the ahtee | reported at the stake boat:—Kennedy and Davis, Barnwell and Sullivan and Diskeen and Henry, When the start was effected Barnwell and Sullivan led off, and seemed to be putting in some very effec- tive work. A terrific struggle ensued — be- tween Kennedy and Davis and Diskcen and Henry, which resulted in both passing by the leading team before the end of the first quarter was reached. At the half-mile stake Barnwell and Sullivan gave up the race and rowed back. Kennedy and Davis were row- ing 33 strokes to the minute and their competi- tors 36. ‘The former turned the stake first and soon were ten lengths from the others. as they came down the course the leading crew allowed the jap to be closed, and in the last uarter a very good struggle was witnessed, Ken: and Davis pulling across the line half a length ahead, ‘Time, 22m. 298.

City Point crew took the lead ‘and held it for a short distance, when the nose of Shawmut No. 1 appeared in front, and soon there were three lengths between them, the Shawmut No. 2 being @ length behind. The City Point crew here rowed a splendid race and would no doubt have finished first but for a bad mistake, They seemed to lose all self-control and rowed in the direction of the Cambridge shore, be- ing at least a quarter of a mile out of their course. Shawmut No. 1 kept straight on their course and turned the stake in %m. J0s., and in 10m. they were squared away for home with # lead of 15 seconds over Shawmut No. 2. The Shawmut crew No. 1 passed the second mile in 14m. 208, from the start, the Shawmut No. 2 in 15m, 13s, and the City Points in 16m. 6s.

The boats had a fair start at 2h, 36m, 10s., and kepton even terms tor nearly # halt-mile. It is seldom that so yood a start is made by the working boats, whdre a foul or two is generally Jooked for as the first thing on the programme. The first time down the Lake- End crews were run together, the West Knd boys cut inside and caused lakemans to make @ wider circle, latter kept their lead, The time of the Lakemans’ two miles was 13m, 36s, and the West Ends 13m. 37%.

John-/: son worked his blades with 4 will, and at the eighth of a mile overtook Riley. When one-fourth of a mile had been traversed, Johnson was leading by half @ length. As the men were approaching the half mile point Riley began to draw up, A FOUL. Jobnson was at this point in Riley’s water’ and their sculls came so clear together that Courtney, who was on the water in & boat, cried ont, “Pull- off, Frenchy, you'll foul!” Hardly had the words escaped his lips, when their blades clashed. Rile; Saised his hand and claimed foul, which was allowed by the referee, Frenchy improved the time while Riley was obtaining a decision and pulled away Riley gained half a length in the next uarter of aaiile, The first mile was made in Gu. 380, by Johnson and 6m. 99s, by Biley, & wooded point obstructed the view for.the next of a mile, and when the tram emerged the men had changes water.

The time for two miles was 14m. At two miles and an eighth both an to spurt tremendously, and for twenty rods neither had the advantage. ‘Then Riley gradu- ally went away from the other, and at two miles and ahalt ho was two ands half lengths in advance. At two and three-quarter miles Frenchy, by a mighty effort. closed half of his lost ground, but he found a stern chase a long one, and could uot catch the Saratogian. Riley shot by the stake the winner by a length and a half. Riley rowed the three miles in the almost unprecedented time of 20m, 528, Johnson arrived at the finish three seconds later. Riley’s colors were red and Johneon’s white. Riley had choice of positions, and chose the shore side.
