SARATOGA, July II, 1872.
The atmosphere was balmy and healthful this
morning, and the track In splendid order for fast
racing. The fresh mountain air seemed to have an
invlgorating influence on the horses, as they all
appeared buoyant and full OF running. But we had
showers before the racing was over.
There were three events on the card-the first q
dash Of mile for all ages; the second selling
race the distance mile and half, and the third
two mile dash-all Of which were finely contested,
apd run In remarkable time.

dam Nora Crena, five years Old; Hunter Il Travers,
bay colt Alarm, by Eclipse dam Maud, three years

ton, dam Ethan Lass, Ave years. Kingfsher was
a great avorite over the field. He was however,
beaten by both the others, Alarm winning the race
very easily in the fastest time ever made. Just as
the race was over shower fell on the track which
made 1t somewhat heavy.

favorite, Sanford second and Mary Louise the
third The favorites were beaten badly by Allie
Hunt, who won the race by O neck, Sanford Sec
Ond. The winner sold for the lowest price In the
pools, and those who invested a tribe on him
reaped rich harvest This was defeat number
two Of the fayorites. Cadence was withdrawn
having burst his quarter In training.

being the only favorite that won during the day.
Lbchiel went or at rapid rate at the COM
mencement, but was the last at the finish
OF the contest: The track was heavy,
his chances OF winning were made doubtful by the
rain but ike all good racehorses, he can run well
under any circumstances. The time was remark
resemble canal in many places. Susan Ann also
