MARYLAND JOCKEY CLUB,
The First Days Events and the
Probable Startcrs-POOl Selling I'm
Baltimore Lnst Night.

Probable Startcrs-Pool Selling I'm
Baltimore Last Night.
BALTIMORE, Oct. 81, 1872
The weather, the preparations made, the unu-
sualy large purses ofrered-amounting to $25, O00-
and the general magnitude OF the race pro-
gramme for the week warrant the supposition that
the annual race meeting OF the Maryland Jockey
Club, which commences at Plmico Course to-mor-
row, will be great success. The attendance,
especially from the interior of the State from vir-
gna and the North, Is larger than ever before
known.
The first event on the card is hurdle race two
miles. over eight hurdles. for purse Of $500, OF
ond horse. The starters In this will be Lochiel,
Tammany and Blind Tom. In the first pool sold to-
night Lochel brought 500 against $25 for the other
two these being disposed OF as Donanues entry.
The second race is the Dixie Stakes, for foals OF
1869; then three years old, two miles, For this
Woodbine, Nate, Experience Oaks Silent Friend,
the brother to Pilgrim, Wheatey and True Blue
will start. The first pool sold on this event is-Joe
Daniels, $420; Woodbine, $S5; Silent Friend, $50;
Pilgrim and Chainberaln's entries, Wheatley and
True Blue, $5 each. Pools were subsequently tried
with Mcdaniel against the field, but no one would
back 1t to suit the friends OF the red and blue.
The third race Is one OF mile heats, which will
probably have three starters-Tubman, Fadadeen
and Hanover What little betting there Is makes
Tubman a large favorte over the other two.
The fourth race is q dash OF three miles, the
starters for which will be M0narchist Defender and
Flora McIvor. The little betting there is on this
makes Monarchist the favortc at the odds OF 500
to $17.
The track IS in good order ana the general ex.
pectatiop that good uplc will be made during the
meeting

LITERARY CHIT-CHAT.

TIE LATE SECRHrARY SEWARD was engaged
short time previous to his death In en- autobioG-
raphy. which he contemplated making voluminous
and complete, embracing his personal reminis-
cences OF and criticisms ON the various statesmen
and politicians whose names are passing or have
passed into history. and with whom he was brought
into immediate personal or ofclai relations during
his lifetime. The memorable events which centred
around his own career, and which In themselves
composed the most interesting portion Of the
record OF the past half century were also to be dealt
with BY the lamented statesman, had not the
hand OF death been laid 80 suddenly upon him. In
this work he had already advanced Q little beyond
nve hundred pages OF closely written manuscript
which, however. only brought the autobiography
down to 1886. Hero the story Is 70 be taken up
by the Governors eldest son, Mr.. r. H. Seward
formerly Assistant Secretary OF State, who viii
once set about completing the work by supplying
the Complementary biography. 1t is fortunate that
the latter was furnished by his father with closely
detailed programme and plan OF the unwritten
part OF the autobiography, with all the necessary
papers, &C., az well as that the young mans own
recollection OF and connection with public events
extend back to some time beyond the date
whereof the great Secretary's hand ceased
to write. MIR. Stewards other great work.
"Trayels Around the World" he happily lived to
complete. 1t is edited by his adopted daughter
Miss olive Risiey Seward, who accompanied him
on his interesting journey, and 1t win be issued BY
the Appletons about the end OF next month.
Mr. JOHN q. SHEA has just issued the sixth and
concluding volume Of his translation OF Charlie
voix's "History OF New France" with elaborate
notes, giving references to all accessible printed
and manuscript authorities bearing on the history
OF the colonies once possessed by France In North
