ILLEGAL REGISTRATION.

Under recent resolution Of the Board Of Police Il
made the duty Of the various Captains to scrunzo
the books Of registry in their respective precincts and
thoroughly investigate the suffrage qualifications Of
those registering. In accordance with the same re-
ports commenced to be received yesterday from the
different wards They show that corruption is preva-
lent Up TO last night the total number of persons
ported having registered Illegally 3l0 and but
eight wards have as yet been heard from.
Tho largest number from the Fourth.
Sixth, Seventh and Eighth precincts. The Seventh
precincts particularly strong, running far ahead OF
any of the others In one tenement house in the
Eighth ward RECORDER HAcKETT sAYs-''I HAvB

voters, none Of whom lived in the house Instances
fully as fragrant reported from the Seventh and
Fourth wards When the police ask for the persons
registered at the place given one can be found who
knows them the names given being fictitious. Fuller
reports are expected 10. day.

AMERICAN JOCKEY CLUB.

The first OF the series Of extra autumn races win ba
run to-day at Jerome Park Five events are on tha
card-the first being aeee handicap sweepstakes,
dash Of three. quarters of mile, in which will be Mr..

John chamberlins gray hny Lzzy r., 95 lbs
W. r. Babcock's chestnut colt Egypt, los lbs
D. D. wthers' chestnut colt Athlete o2 lbs,
and Atchison's chestnut colt Weatherby, 30 lbs.
All these colts and Glles are well known,
have run several times, and the public are familiar
with their capabilities Judging from what they have
done Leander should win the race. The second race

win be seven starters comprising Rhadamanthus, 8
years old carrying lo3 lbs Miner, same age, 9s lbs.
Shylock, aged, lis lbs Willie Burke, 02 lbs Big
Sandy 90 lbs Lelaps 50 lbs, and Weatherby, S5 lbs
the last four named being threeyear-ods Rhadaman-
thus undoubtedly the fastest horse in the race but ID
is questionable whether he give the others much
odds and a beating He Is a favorite Tho third race
is a handicap, dash Of a mile and eighth. There
will be five starters consisting Of Survivor years
old with ia lbs up; Matte W., years old carrying
es lbs Evelyn Carter years old s5 lbs; Vanderbilt
years old 105 lbs and the hoaxer years old 06 lbs
Survivor II really himself ought to beat all the Others
but II on in the least Matte w. will beat him. The
fourth race s also handicap, dash or mile. Eght

IS very doubtful whether Rhadamanthus, good colt
he Is, he can give the others such odds Allowing
Leander nine pounds Arcturus thirteen pounds Ath.

BELFAsT, April 90. 1873.

BELFAST, April oU, 1870.
Mr.. BoARDMAN- Sir:-I am
thankful to "Jack-in-the-pulpit" for
answeringm questions, and I am glad
he is progressing some. In No, 2
be said: 'All our trust in Leagues
or Associations, or in State legisla-
ton, is vain and futile In No. 4
he said Of the Adair law latter it was
amended by our Democratic Legis-
lature to accommodate the liquor
sellers:) "It is worthy of unqualified
appreciation. 1t must commend III
self to the good sense of every diti-
zen who wishes society to be pro
tected."
Now, if our Democratic friends
should get the control of our next
Legislature, and amend the law pro-
hibiting the sale of liquor to minors
and persons intoxicated, SO as to
make it legal to sell to them unless
notified not to do SO, 1 am afraid
that "Jack-in-the-P Pulpit would then
give the law his unqualified appro-
baton.
P. S. I am a voter, though I sign
myself FLORA.
