The spring racing season is about to COM
mence at Jerome Park under promising
auspices. A short time since Paterson was
turf, and the Jerseymen exulted in the antici-
patton of having an American Derby in their
neighborhood. Their hopes were doomed to
disappointment. The establishment of Jerome
Park, and the brilliant manner in which the
races were conducted there last year, changed
New Jersey to the picturesque neighborhood
of FOrdham. The sad accident that occurred
at the hurdle race at Jerome Park last year
made such equestrian pursuits unpopular on
account of the danger connected with them.
In England, where both horses and riders are
trained in hunting and steeple-chasing, the
chances of disaster are considerably lessened.
Here the inexperience of the four-footed and
biped representatives of the turf renders
steeple-chasing in any form extremely dan
gerous 1t is the same as if a bull fight were
got up in this city d rEspagnole with an ordi
nary Western bull, couple of rat terriers and
q Washington Market butcher as matador.
The patrons of hurdle races will, however, be
delighted to hear that this season there will be
patent hurdles used at Jerome Park which will
do away with the possibility of danger to
horses or jockeys from this source. Conse-
quently we may expect to hear of daring feats
performed at the next races, and every one will
be anxious to test those patent hurdles. The
fact that fifty eight horses are in actual train
ing for the next meeting at Jerome Park, to
say nothing of those at the private training
establishments and other public courses in this
vicinity and those from the West and South, is
sufficient indication of the brilliancy of the
spring races at this favorite course.

Religious Revivals.

Our religious newspapers report marked
increase in what are known as ''revivais
throughout the country. The number OF men,
bers of the various denominations has greatly
increased and is daily increasing, the people
Of the rural districts particularly expressing
conversion and '.joining church." If we take
the trouble to analyze these religious revivals
our present disordered political as well as
social system. Indeed, it may be truly asserted
that even as in politics a struggle is going on
between the advocates and supporters OF the
constitution, laws and civil government on the
one hand, and the representatives and uphold
ers of revolution, with all Of its excesses and
political debaucheries on the other, so is there
an existing conflict between the pious-mnded
and the votaries of that new social order which
was born of ballets and spectacular dramas.
And if we carry the smile further we may say
that, even as in politics the opposing elements
increase in strength every day, so in this
religious struggle do the antagonists increase
in number and Importance.
The religious revivals to which we have re-
ferred are not confined to any particular de-
nomination, but are occurring in every creed
and class of Christianity. Men, women and
children throng the churches and camp meet
ings, and there in penitence and sorrow pledge
themselves to live in the future more in accord
ahce with divine intention and divine law.
But how can we regard these manifestations OF
revivng interest in the spiritual when almost
side by side with them we find lasciviOlisness
and sensuality fourishing in high and low
places, while our places Of amusement are rem
dered profitable to their managers by the repre-
sentatiops of scenes whose whole tendency is to
break down the barriers which virtue has set
up before society for the laudable purpose Of
restraining the animal instincts of mankind,
and when even the literature OF the day, in
stead of elevating the morals Of its readers,
tend, by species of disgusting pruriency, to
carry fis as low as possible in the social scale.
Is this revival and this retrogression the pre-
cursor of better and purer religion than
we have yet enjoyed? Shall we eventually
reach that point when, satiated BY the Puritan
ism of our present religious system, and rem
dered sick and cIoyed by an unhealthy morality,
the fabric of our present society will be utterly
destroyed, and from the ashes new system
will arise which will lead us nearer to the mil
lennium and nearer to God?

The Central Underground Railroad.

1t is to be hoped, now that the Legislature
has passed the bill Incorporating the first
underground railroad, that the work will be
proceeded with and promptly completed.
Hitherto projects like these have been carried
through by politicians for no other purpose
than that of virtually blackmailing the pro-
perty owners of this city. Whenever few
respectable men could be induced to place their
names to schemes of similar nature the
lobbyists have seldom failed to carry the
measure through the Legislature. and after
wards to levy round sum upon Interested
parties, and then nothing more is heard of the
matter We have not forgotten the famous
scheme of destroying Fifth avenue by removing
the elegant and costly stoops in front of the
residences on that fashionable street. and the
remembrance of that attempt at blackmailing
serves as warning in the present case II is,
however, gratifying to observe that among the
names of those who comprise The New York
City Central Underground Railway Company"
are several belonging to gentlemen of well
known energy and integrity. Mr. W. b.
Duncan, j. B. Johnston, J. S. Schultz and ".
w. Slocum are gentlemen who will not permit
their names to be used by politicians for un-
worthy purposes. They will doubtlcs see to il
that the provisions of the bill are faithfully car
ried out, and that the road is built in as short q
time as practicable Such being the case. we
feel hopeful that the Underground Railroad will
not exist upon paper alone, and that the act of
incorporation will not be used to blacknal the
numerous property holders along the route, who
may object to the underground plan
As we have remarked before, the proposed
road is not an Objectionable one. II traverses
q section where property is not so valuable as
that in which the arcade project lies and its
construction will not interfere with the com
mcrce of the city to any considerable extent.
IF it is feasible plan, and il it can be erected
within five years, then let the company go
energetically 20 work and construct the road,
and let such men as Mr.. Duncan and Mr.. John
ston keep sharp eye upon its Management,
lest IL become stockjobbing concern. The
necessities of the city for rapid means of com
munication from one end of The island to the
other are apparent to ALL and il is desirable
that some description of road be built that will
enable persons TO travel from the City Hall TO
Harlem bridge within an hour. If The Central

The E-ic Railroad slaughter.

One of the worst features in the recent
slaughter on the Erie Railroad is that it could
have been avoided. The managers of the road
were fully aware of the condition of the track
they had been plainly informed, long prior to
the occurrence of the accident, that miles of
use. Ignoring the dangers of which they were
warned, the management risked on stockjob
bing and wasted in the courts enough money,
perhaps, to have repaired and made the road
Vanderbilt was the principal cause of some
thirty or more persons losing their lives, and
a vet larger number being either MANNED for
life or sustaining injuries which will cause
them much suffering for months to come. We
alude to this feature of the disaster because
similar slaughters are likely to occur on other
roads from just the same cause. II is notorious
that nearly all of the railroads in the United
spectators; that they are managed by these
men not for the sake Of the business they do,
but for the sake of profits accruing from
speculations in their bonds or stocks. How
liable, then, are we to record more of railroad
slauohters similar to the recent one on the
Erie road! There may be great profit and ex-
citement in manipulating railroad securities !;
but of what comfort are these things to the
their lives, to those who are physically injured?

fashionable people of the hour. Quarterly,
monthly and fortnightly publications are
lux,iries Luxuries are the enjoyment of the
few, but that few are always the Towering and
fruit of the dominant thoughts and feelings
of the hour. 1t is, therefore, fair and just
conclusion that the moral and religious senti-
ments which find favor in these publications
are the governing sentiments of the day. If
this conclusion be accepted as just-and we
know no reason why it should not-we have
no choice but to affirm that in regard to
morals and religion we are as
people in a most unhealthy state. We
do not speak rashly when we say it
that our periodical literature, with few soli-
tary exceptions, is immoral in high degree,
and that its influence, if allowed to go
unchecked, will prove destructive and ruin
GUS in the extreme. When periodical such as
the ''North American Review" which claims
to be the representative organ of the American
people, speaks of such a man as Theodore
Parker as another Messiah, and places him on
the same level with Jesus Christ we cannot
wonder that the smaller fry should be equally
irreverent and more unblushingly impure. We
could name periodicals which have been extern
aively bought, which have found place upon
the most genteel tables, which have been
handled by most delicate fingers, which have
been read by lustrous eyes which were the
index of pure and untainted souls-journals
which contained articles which, in spite of an
apparent moral purpose, were filed to reple-
ton with the deadliest moral poison. We have
no desire to make ourselves offensive by men
tloning names, but there are only few, a
very few indeed, of the magazines and reviews
now counting public patronage free from the
charOe

The Southern Elections.

The South Carolina elections, involving the
ratification of the radically reconstructed State
constitution, Governor, Legislature and mem
bers to the lower house of Congress, appear to
have gone pretty thoroughly radical The re-
suits could hardly be otherwise under universal
negro suffrage in State which numbers four
hundred thousand blacks against three hundred
thousand whites.
In Louisiana, from some splits and dissen-
sons among the republicans, the results of the
elections in progress are doubtful, although it is
probable the constitution will be ratified, from
the general turnout and fusion of the republi-
cans, Blacks and whites, radicals and conser-
vatives on that question, against the opposition
party.
In Georgia, where the registered voters on
the two sides are nearly equal in numbers,
and where the elements in opposition to the
radicals are prepared for vigorous fight, there
is fair prospect for general radical defeat.
The elections come off this week and are to
continue for five days, beginning tomorrow.
In North Carolina the elections, beginning
on Tuesday of this week. will last three days,
on ratification of new constitution, choice of
Governor, Legislature, &c. AS the republicans
have two tickets in the field, radical and in
dependent radical, and as the registered white
voters in this State are in heavy majority, the
presumption is that for the offices involved the
conservatives will carry the State.
The Florida election is also close at hand
but there, from the majority Of the registered
blacks, the result will most likely be radical
throughout
The Virginia and Mississippi Conventions are
Just closing up their arduous labors, Arkansas
is on the way to Washington for admission into
Congress, while Texas is only about to begin
the work of framing radical constitution ac-
cording to the pattern prescribed by Congress.
What has become Of Alabama we hardly know,
though we suppose she is held back to be slipped
in quietly under President Wade that is to be.
There are, however, so many bitches and diff
culties and troubles to the radicals in all
these Southern elections, that we fear the task
of setting the States concerned right side up
will be more than match even for ''Old Ben"
