Out HotWltuStdnung the hUenuduce w ds greater
ever. From twelve o'clock parties began to arrive
in hundreds, and from two o'clock there was one
continuous flock of persons towards the course.
Every description of vehicle was in requsition to
carry those who could afford odd quarter for such
purpose, TO save their legs. Vehicles are in much
more requiston this year than ever they were be-
FORE consequence OF the removal of the old rot
ten stair case at the foot OF the hill In consequence
Of this removal, however, many prefer going round
by the New Jersey Ferry, the distance is now
dered about equi and the steep ascent from Hobo
ken avoided, The sport in this neighborhood must
afford fine harvest to the different ferry proprie-
tors, hotel Keepers, and others, who, no doubt aid
materially the liberal purses that given. There
was pretty good muster of sweat-cloths and other
gambling apparatus along he.road, particularly near
the Bergen Cottage, at the foot of the h and about
the entrance to the course. At the latter point he
little joker particularly, in active operation,
and appeared to have as many admirers and sup
porters as ever, Notwithstanding all the advice that
has been given gratuitously for great length OF
time past.


A short time before three o'clock, big black
whiskered fellow was observed to break into the
track, little below the field-stand lie was mme
dately pursued by the proprietor Of the course who
called upon him to tutn back but he needed not the
call, and went on his way. MIR. Browning followed
and oame up with him, when the other seized
piece of deal plank and struck him over the side OF
the Lead, about the lower jaw, cutting him severely
MIR. Browning then drew his revolving pistol and
fired at what appeared to be his legs, but did not

he struck hlm very heavy blow over the head,
which staggered him. He soon recovered, and
drew his pistol and fired again AT this moment
others interposed, among whom was the Sheriff Of
the county, who saw all that passed, and the aggres
sor was taken into custody and shortly after convey
ed to the Hackensack prison. Some persons pretend
ing to responsibility. defended the trespasser in his
actions, and contended that he had perfect right
to act as he had done though all that knew the party
said that if they had been situated Mr. Browning
was, they would not have been prudent or cool
as he was. We may next hear of parties advoca-
ting the right Of persons to commit burglary, and
not to be resisted.


1t was near four o'clock ere the sports Of the day
commenced with walking match of two miles,
for purse of $50-$l0 TO the second, for which
the following pedestrians were entered:


Mi.S WITH s''g ve1nsige, 81 aigss' John D. 'an'yn'
The three first Fin the last walking match; but on
ly the two first came to the scratch. There was
vague runner of combination on the part Of the
North Star, bat no proof being forthcoming he was
allowed to start.


The betting previous was the North Star against
the second and third to against VIM. Vermil-
yea s to against J. $. Vandyne.


Both the men came up and appeared quite san
gnne.. The North Star was quite indignant at the
aspersion that was made upon him. The word ha-
Star, if anything, having the lead, but at the bottom
opened the gap between them apparently about ten
yards. He reached the quarter pole in I'm. 53s in
this position. On approaching the half mile the
Star was still further ahead and the other ap-
peared to fall Oft most wonderfully. The half was
reached in Am. They kept thus round the top past
the three-9uarter poll, and at the draw gate coming
home the Star appeared to lead full the eighth OF a
mile, and he completed his first mile thus in SIN Is
When vandine reached the Judges chair he pull-d
up, but pressed by his friends to continue the
match as there considerable amount depend
ing upon time. After some reluctance and delay he
nd in fha p,oo ila tho a
in advance of him, which position he maintained
home, completing the two miles in I'm. Is. and
Vandine in Ism. sos.


Some delay again took place The American
Deer wished the ten mile to take place after the
hurdle race in consequence Of the excessive heat Of
the weather: This was refused on the part of Gil
derseve, who insisted un the printed programme
of the sport being adhered to. This was eventually
agreed to.


1t was about o'clock when the men for the
great feature of the day were in readiness. The
match was Ten Mile Race, for purse of $500
$3.50 to the second, and 80 to the third. The fol-
lowing pedestrians were entered:-


the S.n D... LAT. lat. from
5smss e. D.'TfSs' wssslsn, E n. n fpsisany; pssasyy;.


Out Of the above list the following only made their
appearance, and were placed in the following or


John Gildersleve.


Wm Jackson, the American Deer.


Wm Roberts, the Welch Bantam


Glldersevee was dressed in white net cap and
white short drawers; Jackson in flesh-coored silk
drawers with blue birds-eye foge on his head
Williams in blue drawers and blue striped handker-
chief on his head The latter appeared great deal
too f1cshy to make good race. He is a native Of
Glamorganshire, in South Wales, about % years of
age.


Previous to the race, there was some rumor OF
Gilderslevc not being IN condition for the race in
consequence OF being run against by horse on the
track on Monday last. We saw the accident al the
time, and Gllderleve afterwards, who did not
complain or appear TO be hurt TO any material ex-
tent. But Notwithstanding this report Glldersleve
hld many very sangulne supp0rte rs, who took the
slightest odds that were offered against him. The
American Deer, on the whole, was the decided Ia
vorite and considerable sum was aid out upon
hum at to 4 but after wards TO was wanted. II
was thought the Wech Bantam would have better
chance N race after the goats on his native hills
than on the present occasion. Even that twas done
IN 55m D to that il was done in 57m.


The word having been given the Bantam took the
lead at a sap.up pace: there was slight pause be-
tween Jackson and Gilderseve who should follow,
when Jackson took il about two yards after thu
Bantam; closely followed by Gi!derseve, as If wait
ing. The hrst stquarter was done in I'm 10. the half
IN Pm 32s. Round the top all appeared well toge


her, Jackson apparently takin easy, the Bantam
working Ike steam engine. Jackson came home
70 5m 23s.; Gilderseye second, about yard be-
hnd, with the Bantam two yards behind hun -
Just as Jackson approached the Judges chair at the
end of this mile, boy crossed his pah at whom he
made blow which stretched him full length on his
mother earth.


For the second mile, at the quarter, Gildersleeve
went IN front, which shortly after was taken from
1lm by Jackson, who came home in 5.37, and


iidersleeve not yard behind him The Bantam
was near the eighth of mile behind, and as hr
cached the Judges char. made bee line from the
track and gave up the contest.


The third mile was much as before the only two
remaining competitors were not yard apart Oh


eachlng the Judges chair, in 5.33, both taking II
apparently rather easy


The fourth mile, rs before. G,lderseeve stepping

The fifth mile, at the end, there some slight
change; Jackson led home near upon three yards IN
'front.'. He was now evidently opening the gap be-
tween them. Time ] 80.

yreater between them; still more 80 at the half
