Special to the CaisiionAdvocati:.
The season which has just ciosed has
itcen one of tna most remarkablo for
horse-racing that we have had formally
years; not so much for tho superior
character of the horses as the great
number of all sorts of people that have
ittenled them. Pool selling is forbidden
'tylaw, but pools have boen sold on
every race since, the commencement of
'.he season ;no.t blacklegs anil professional
xstnblers only have put up their money
t the result, b'lt fine la lies have been
iren d ty after day staking hundreds and
inn Ire Is on the races. Now. when 1
iy fine ladles I mean it; I do not mean

men. wlio wear fine dlamon is.rich silks,
ostly furs, and camel's hair shawls.bnt
eepectablo wives and honored mother",
.vho havo attended the races every day
his season rain- or shine. When the
aces opened at Sheepshead Hay carlv
'n the spring, a lady and her daughter
ippearedon tho Grand Stand. There
vas nothing loud or unbecoming aboui
hem: they main no aciualntancc.s. male
ir female; they conducted themsclvc
vith tho most perfect propriety, bit'
hey would bet their money on tho races,
to'h mother and daughter had a book,
ml each male It up after a careful
evlew of tho hers is. They never seemed
o exchange notes, but, each played a
one hand on herown Ju.ljment. Loiscs

s nonchalance tliat-would havo moved

icatters his gold upon the turf, those
'wosvomen were the observed of all
tbsers-ers, and that is saying a ereat
leal, for on the Grand Stand at Jerome
Park, may bo seen on any good raelns
lay, much of the beauty and fashion of
which New Tork boasts. Thero were
'iiany races this season when the rain
fell and tho wind blew, and none but
he toughest old sport could face the
weather; but every day from first to last
Mrs. L. and her blooming daughtet
sere there, and they occupied theli
favorite seats on the front in the middle
af the Grand Stand the last racing day.
I could learn nothing about them, ex
cpt that they were from the South
hat they occupied magnificent apart
ments In a splendid uptown flat that
hey had lots of money and no acqtialn
ances. and were passionately fond of
iood horses. A sharp bookmaker told
me. that the old lady had bagged about
ifteen thousand dollars, and the daugh
cr about Hs-c.
One afternoon I sasv a lady take off
her -magnificent diamond brooch, ear
nings and finger rings, to bet on a race,
fortunately for her she won, and sralkcd
.iff with a thousand dollars.
We are fond of moralizing on our
splendid advantages and our suocrlor
civilization, we deprecate a Snanisb
Bullfight, and we execrate and condemn
the Gladiatorial slaughters of the l!o
inans. We woudcr that any race of
men and women could ever have existed
with ners-es of steel and hearts of stone.
and who could sit by and see a felloss
creature slaughtered without a quiver.
Yet ouly a week ago there svas a splen
did company at Jerome Park beauty,
fashion and .wealth were there. On the
turf amid the fashionable equipages
might be seen the gay turnouts of live
or six svell known preachers, who never
take dust on the boulevard from any
thing nuiler 2:25. The day was dam
and cloudy, an I the course heavy and
wet; these however, were only mere in
cidents, and were weighed with regard
o the betting. The jockeys aro all
mounted,, and a gallant looking crew
they were, on their animals, lank as
greyhounds with hides like burnished
gold. Everything is at fever heat, the
horses champ and feel as if eaeer to be
off, and the aharp-eyed youngsters on
their backs ore watching eTcry chance
for an opening. The flag Is dropped
and awar they weep Hk8 llentaln. -In
all of that wild excited throng thero Is
not one ttiat tninki of danger, all are
bent on victory behind .that victory arc
the loud shouts, of applauding thousands
and yellow ihlnlng gold,, men and wo
men aro worked to a ,trenzy of mad

an early opportunity to give, a more,
critical review of the beautiful svater
color exhibition of this vcar.
Providence bo thanked the election is
ovor, and for a year, at least, tho small
boy no moro stcalcth the covering of
tbe cellar grating to mako a patriotic
bonfire; no more will our cars be ofTend:
si with the beating of political gongs;
the merchant and mechanic will again
roturn to their business, and the tramp
.vho has he.en. comfortably housed and
fed for the. last, thirty days will again
irowl our streets to beg and steal. The
Democrats have all tho State offices? the.
Cepuhlicans have the Assembly an J. the
lenale; the deal seems to be pretty;
'!Ven, an I both partlos oan conjratuUf
'hemselves on ha'yln; had the mosEor
lcrly election of any State In the Union.
New York and Brooklyn have a largo
m l turbulent populatfon, but to their
honor be it recorded thero svas not a potf
In either city, 'wheraa Kopublic.-in "or
Democrat might not freely cast his vote.'
Order rolgned supremo everywhere, and
the peaco oflicers at tho different election
precincts held a sinecure. This is es
pecially gratifying in view of the turbu
lent violence at Chicago and Cincinnati
anl with all of her faults, stamps New
York as one of tho model States of the
American Itepublic.
Among the novel modes of advertis
ing, I saw a man seated on the top of a
house on one of our leading thorough
fares, he was e-julppe.l as a fhhcrimn
with an oilskin coat, a souwester and a
fishing rod. There he sat fishing on the
toof, wlille thousands stood gazing on
the street below. Every few minutes
he caught a fish to the Intense dcllghl
of the people In the street. It svas the
advertisement of a candy store, and svas
an Immense success, and crowded the
store svith purchasers of candy. Tast
ing the same place a fesv days later, the
fisherman svas clad In a light blue mill
'ary overcoat, and had with him on the
roof a file of men In India rubber coats
svith hoods over their head?, and as he
nut them thiough their drill, whichever
way they wheeled they wheeled and
turned they were labeled "candy, can
ly." As a result, hundreds rushed In
to buy candy, who would never have
realized the truth of the old adage, "one
fool makes many."
An old game has been revived here
during the week which has resulted In
serious loss. It Is generally practiced
during the early hours of the evening.
The immense plates of glass now used
for store windows, on account of their
thickness svere supposed to be a protec
tion for goods; Lut our adroit thieses
have got the belter of litem. Theytc

under his coat. Thief 'o. 1 dashes his
stone through the svlndow, and thief
No. 2 holds his stone In reserve, sshllc
No, 1 grabs a tray of goods, and both
hurry off to the cart which is driven, off
