These names would give you but a iaiui idou of tbe
splendor una gayety ol ibo sceue. Whatever Paris
does sbe does much betior than tbo rest ol tba world,
oven in tna matter of norses and eoaones, which era
supposed lo bo tbe peculiar proviuce ol Kngland. A
meet in Hyde Park and a ride to Alexandra Palace,
wbicb la tbe lavorito drive of tba Kuglisb coaoning
clubs, is imposing, because it takes you tbrougu tbo
power and wealth ol London. Rat If you see the
might and majesty of London, you see bore tbe mag
nificence ol Paris. The driva in Loudon, onoe you
lose tbo avenues and lawns of tba parks, is through
dingy, narrow streets, and banks o( foggy
clouds aud stiowers of misty rata. There Is
scarcely an object to look at a second time,
unless It may be the lions In Trafalgar square and tbe
vast, dingy dome ot tik Paul. But tbe drive Irom tbe
gardens of tbe Palace ol Industry to La Marcbe must
rank witb tbe moat beautiful In tbe world. Tbe as
sembly took place under tbe ebestnut trees, and at
oae o'clock tbe streets adjacent to tbe Avenue d'Aatin
were Jammed witb carriages and sightseers.
A squad of mounted gendarmes preserved order.

Irretrievable contusion. The greetings and meetings
were many and cordial, and your correspondent bad

finely formed impatient steeds pawing tne ground
and prancing and eager lor the signal. Although
tbe hour was written down at one, tbat hour passed
and still new drags oame hurrying Into fine. At ten
minutes pust one the born was blown, and X. de la

Of course a meeting ot tbla kind would not oreate
tbat same kind or enthusiasm which you would see
in London or Bow York?net the eoibustesm which
any especial republican ffiie woo Id excite In Paris.
You see, thai aitbougb ibis is a republic, and we be*
iieve in liberty, fraternity sod equality, nod all kiuds
of tbtngm-tbere la war between classes, and tbla war
Is alwsys active. So when Pans and France bave a
lete in honor of tbe Exposittoe, and illuminate eve
noes and gardens, and darken the air with multitu
dinous flags, it is, alter nil, tbe republican quarters,
Belleville aod Moot martrc, that sbow real enthusi
asm. The Faubourg St. Germain closes lis windows
and makes tbe day one ol penance and tor
row. They have no conceru with any re
publican I5te. Franco Is only tbelr France
wlien tbev can govern it, and anything that
France doea under any patronago but tbeir own they
Irown npon. So wben they have their tflte, when
tbey come out, aa yesterday, In all tbelr giory, aa the
Figaro expresses it, "Un orw }>arfum <VeUgance,''

Before wo come to Suresnes we eee St. Cloud, far off

pulling Idly along, or resting ou their ours to con
template our coming and goiug. And so wo come
until wo are impnsonei In tbe narrow streets ol the
town of St. Cloud. Wo have no time to go to tne
ruined palace, but we see now and then as we pass on
somo ruin?rolic of tbe war. St. Cloud seems not to
bavo bad energy enough to put aside these gbaatly
memories, aod tben we remember tbat tbs town was
a kind or outpost lor both armies; tbat the French
lima and German lines met bere; tbat this marked
the lurtbest surge ol tbe tide ol invaalon, and tbat
these lorlorn chiteeux, abandoned to tbs crows with
the caonon bolea torn through them, ware destroyed

For oven now we have passed the walls of a ob&teau

eyes, as though some Ira mortal had suddenly unrolled

points irom which Fans oan bo seen?Fhre-ls-Cnaise,

TUB PARK LA MARCUS.
This park is very pretty. It is really s country
farm that baa been transformed into a private and
vtry exclusive racing park. Tbe track Is plain sodded
tart. There is a grand stand wbieli could not do mora
than hold a thousand people II crowded. There is an
other sund, wuioh Is simply a terrace, where a hun
dred gentlemen might stand witn comiorl. There Is
a booth whore you can buy cakee sua champagne,
a paddocx for the hor.ea aud poutes, a room
tor weighing lookers and horsemen, a line ol modest
stab es and tiers and there andevery where the softest
and greenest turf and masses of trues. I don't know
that 1 can give you a more comprehensive descrip
tion of the Pare ot La Marcbe. It compares with
tbe great racing parka of tbo world? Newmarket, Jo
romo and Longcbampo?about as ths i'aro Monocuo
compares with the Rot* its Boulogne. It is very
small, very bsaniilnl, very comfortable, and I can
well aee bow It tally carries oat the ideas ol Its foacd
ors, lust it shall bo a quiet and excioelve park, where
people who are people can meet with their own
irtnnda and associates, and not bo hustled in tbo
weighing room or challenged at tne betting table by
tbelr own ooncirrgr. or bailer or butcher. In France
this means lar more than yon would imagine It tu
mean In the United Slates, and la a sporting viow It
Is the meaning ol La Marcbe.
THK EACSS AMD THS RIDS BOMB.
The first race, y?n will observe, is the programme
was for a coarse pinto between hack horses. It was
run befors the arrive! ot many ol tbe drags, ana was
wun by Tralaia easily. Ths second raco was the first
Interesting event ol tho day. It was lor a prist given
by the Kae Royals Utah lor the beet polo pony on tbo
ground. Ihero were nine entrlos la this race?
numely ,Darling, Tlcu borne, Midge, Small, Philippine,
Ktne, Silly, silver and Daisy. The riders generally
wore their colors as lavors on their arms?simple col
ored rlbbous lied into rosettes. la some cases
tbe silk garments wrrs worn. In the start id#
ponies all got away without delay, and eame to tbe
winning polo well together. The race would have bom
won by Sllrer but lor the bad manner in which be
was ridden, and just at the moment when
Silver should bars pnesed to the front, Midge
?hot by and was notorious Tbe result was
so obrloosly an aecidoul that at once
another race was proposed on the pa't ol the friends
of Mtlrer, who offered a prise rained at l.hOOf. The
day waa so far s?ue that this supplementary race
could not be run, mueh to the disappointment of the
assemblage. Toe sleeplocbaae was the next affair.
Although there were six entries, but two inousts ap
pearsd? I.ambtouisn, belonging to Mir William (lull,
and Rutor, belougiog to F. Roy. This was a good race
si the on lee t, esd both borsos eamo down tbe turf
and orer tbe hurdles In One style until about hall war
aruusd. Then, in Jumping a fence, llutor's rider wet
thrtwu. Tbt ineideut look place in from 01 in* grand
stand, and tbtre waa a meeement tf Interest and sym
pathy as tbe jockey, In cherry and light blue, wat
seen in spin oyer In* horse's head and roll on the lurt.
But tbs rMer was on bis loot In a second, and a dozen
bonds were prompt to bnlphiai Into his sent, and
with nale 'ace and elmohed teeth be kept
on bis now lorlorn and bopelesa race. Hit
hope now was that the fate whieh tbrew him oyer n
fenoe should throw his ileal Into a dltob, and so tbe
rsmotsdor ol the rsoe was waiebed, not as a font of
horsemaasbtp, bet at a game ol obanoo to see whether
the horseman In rioiet and yellow would not fell, and
Ibus give nit rital a obance to coma somewhere Imo
lino. But rioiet anu yellow bad too sure a seat, and
alt that remained to him waa to spin orsrbit fence* in
?# leisurtij a saner, gad mm ltwiaf- 4a as Us di<V
leaving Bator far bebtod. All the sams Bator mad# a
f#od raca. Horseman will bo (brown, yoa know, ud
ibw Jockey mad# the beat of hie miabap, and be bad
(be sympathy ot tbe crowd aa ba alowly rode tbroagb
them to tbe weighing plaoe. Tb# Walter Handicap
for a ladies' prtae was also a good race. In
tbia tbere wore elgbt entrlea oat of sixteen,
namely, Pifforari, Paroaoxe, Lab I re, Silenoiense,
Belle-Petite, Geograpnle. Houradex and Ro
sme. I suppose one reason tbat Spblnx did
not ran was because General Grant, who bad hoped
and expected to be among tbe spectators, foaud blm
seW compelled to go to tbe American department In
the Exposition and look at some mucblnery Much
sympathy was expressed for tbe General, and Spbtnx,
wbo would probably bare done sreat tbiuga In the
preseneeol bla illustrious nameaake, remained in bla
stable. Tbe horses got well away at tne signal and
kept together dnring a good part of tbe raee, but tbe
French borse ol M. Blanc, Pilferari, finally took bis
place In tbe advance, and kept It until tbe end,
although not wltbont a struggle. Tbe military raee
was called aa soon as possible. A couple of young
j gentlemen bad a private pony raee of tbelr own lor a
1 thousand yards or so while tbe officers were preparing;
bat one ot ibe pomes bad short legs, and tbe other,
alter leaving bis rival at tbe atari, never boiborsd him
self but came right in, while No. 2 wabbled alter in a
hopeless lasbion. Tbe militery raee was wail con
tested and as thera was a large number ol officers ol
tbo French army on tbe ground tbey took u deep In
terest In It. Our Euglisb friends looked on, many ot
tbem In u disdainful wuy, as much as to say tbat no
doubt a Frenchman oould stick on a burst's back and
go wbarcver tbe borae did, but no one oonld really
ride but an Englishman. The raca was even lor ball
tbe course, but Danielle, ridden by the Viscount de
Pterres, liuullr began to leave tbe aayltgbt between
himself uud Edwige. As Edwlgo was well ridden, bow
ever, the race was well maintained to tbe eud. Its
loriunca scorned to vary with tbe emotions of s stout,
excited Englishman wbo stood behind your cor
respondent. "Four to one ou Don telle I" be criod In
fine Liverpool French. A pause. "Five to one on
Dentellol" A pau-e. In a bigber key, "Ten
to one on Deutelle!" a pause. Then, in a
screaming panic-stricken, hopeless, despstring key,
"Twenty to one on Dontelle!" At tbat moment
Edwige was seen to draw closer, obeying whip and
spur. "Taken lor loulsI" was tbe answer. But Den
telle came in and tbo one louis was paid.
This closed tbe raee, and closed also one of tbo
most interesting days in tbe sporting season. Tbo
wbolo programme was carried out, and with prompti
tude. You missed tbo noise and movement and clat
ter of the general raoa day, but It was aa subduad and
quiet and refined as a Sunday meeting la tbe ooantry.
On the return borne tbere were no Incidents beyond
tbe breaking ot tbe pole iu ono or tbe drags. Tbe
ride waa beaulilul, notwithstanding the dust wbteb
bovered over as like a clond, until we passed Mures no
bridge and came under the grateful shadows ot tbo
Bote. From tbat polot homeward?and borne was
reached shortly after six?tbe drive was perieot
and fitly closed an atternoou ot genome and uninter
rupted p eaaure.

YACHTING.
Annual Regatta of the Atlan
tic Yacht Club.
CALMS, MODERATE BREEZES AND DRIFTS.
The Triton, Dolphin, Imperia and
Intrepid the Winners.
A REGATTA ON THE HUDSON.
Tbe Atlantic Yacht Club, ot Brooklyn. L. I, held
their thirteenth annual regatta In Near York B iy yes
terday. A float of seventeen vessels took part In tbe
contest, and tbe earnestness displayed by
the crews makes the event or an inter
esting nature. If fresher brecses bad been
vnucbafed tbe yachtsmen an eurly and more
satisfactory ending would bave resulted and the vto
tory in tbe schooner aud tbe larger sloop classes
would be credited to tbe boats doing the best sailing
ol tbe aay. One bit of work?that Irom tbe Hook te
tbe lightsmp?relieved , ibe race irom being a failure
and gave the captains ot tnrec or tour boats an
opportunity of showing what manner of dex
terous craft they commanded. Mr. J. Roger
Maxwell's schooner Pesrless outsailed Commodore
Tbayer's Triton, ber only antagonist, nearly the
entire coarse, but when tbe prize seemod within aer
grasp she was becalmed, and the Triton coming up
wltn a light air pasted ber, and found the home hue
a winner in the darkneea. A more surprising result
cau be chronicled in the race of the iurger sloops.
The Uodtue and Orloo, boats whose performancee
bave always been admirable, and in the ouse of
tbe former, an unbeaten orait, were compolled to
strike their colors to tne Dolphin by the same
kind ot a Uuko as marked tbe Triton's winning. The
Undine, unlortunately, lost ber topmast outside of
Sandy Hook, ana tbe Orion lost tbe wind within three
or four miles of the finish. Tbe Dolpbin has neitber
very good Iooks nor speod, and, If eltner of these
qualities bod determined tbe race, tbe odds woeld have
been one hundred to one In favor of the Orion.
The fluking always wout dead against tbe latter. Of
tbe aloops that turned a mark at C-eduey channel buoy
and then squared away for home tbe new boot Itn
peria scored her maiden conquest, and the crew la
cooscqnenoc were greatly delighted. Of the real
small fry, class E, the Intrepid, 34 ft. 11 in. mean
length, pegged a eroduabie first.

the tide, they lorged ahead fast enough to soon
place Ibem the Isadora Tbe Triton and Poeriees
having the r own little game to piay, stuck closely to
each other further to the eastward than was good for
