NEWPORT, July 24.-The bellies Of Newport
to-day don't mourn and lament quite so openly
for the departure of that centre Of interest and
promoter OF festivities, the French feet, as did
the Revolutionary fair ones when the French
army sailed away from the dull little town that
they had made SO gay for brief period.
The Prince de Broglie, who came with party
Of friends to visit the town the year after the
departure OF the French army, writes OF how
deso1e these bellies Of the past century were, and
tells us that they confessed to him that there
we're no more balls and fetes since the French
army went away"
The fair danes and demoiselles of 1879 are not
quite in such sad case as that, and their lamenta,
therefore, not quite SO .doletul. The French
fleet Was only brilliant episode after all, and
already the arrangements for a fresh sensation
OF the most promising magnitude are afoat.
This is grand steeplechase for September. We
hare had rumors of steeplechascs to be ever
since the grand affair four or five years ago, but
they have Invariably ended Ia nothing but
rumora But the proposed chase for this season
bids fair to be something more than rumor,
for already 81, 900 has been guaranteed, and the
other WHICH Is tue necessary sum 70 carry

Bennett, who Is expected to-day, will no doubt
do his always generous part towards the sue
cess of the affair. With Mr. Bennett's coming

will break forth in all their summer madness.
The reason OF the delay in the polo, it is said,
is on account of the Buffalo accident PRINCIPAL
