TIE Racing.

The track was in capital order for racing to-day
and the weather fine. We mad but two races, al
though there were TWO purses offered besides the
Saratoga Stakes; but one Of the purses failed TO ILL.,
there being but one entry, and as matter Of course
that affair resulted in walk over. The Saratoga
Stakes was for TWO year ODDS and had eleven start
ers. most capital race was the result and aner

fore critical assemblage. Mr.. belmont had two in
tue race, Nellie James and Finesse, which are
very handsome and promising. Messrs. Den.
nison & Crawford had also two by Censor,
one out OF LAnglalse, and the other out
OF Pasta, which are spendldly developed
for their age Mr., McConnell's Anna Mace, by
bennington, Is grand creature in appearance,
and in time, With care, ought to make racer Of
distinction. All the others were fine specimens Of
the best strains OF fashionable blood Four OF those
that started were by Censor, two by imported
Eclipse and only one by Lexington. Remorseless
won this easily as she did the Flash Stakes the
day before. She Is very fast FLY and runs with
great power and resolution. The second race had

These were General Yorke Aldebaran, Climax.
Lancaster and julius. They only had 100 pounds up
and made very fast race, General Yorke winning the
money. Lancaster was the favorite, but was beaten
badly. The horse Is not In condition for any race
and not been since he won the Saratoga Cup last

his present form. General Yorke is capital horse
and can run any distance. he cannot run as fast as
many others on the turf at the present day. but he

him nicely, the weight and distance being playthlngs

Those who bought him reaped rich harvest. Aide.
baran seemed at ease with the 100 pounds on his
back and ran with spirit as far as ne could. Climax,
like Lancaster, deceived his hackers and did not
as well we have seen him. The journey was half
q mile too long for him. Little was expected OF
less. He never had the look OF a winner from be-
ginning to end. The following are the details Of the
