fore the start Prince Battbyany’s Galopin supplanted him, 
and justified his backers by landing the stakes easily, Cam- 
hallo not being placed. This was the ninety-fifth time this 
rich stake has been contested, and its value now yearly 
approximates the sum of five thousand guineas. Galopin 
is by Vedette out of Flying Dutchess. 
— Two days following the Derby, the Oaks, the great 
filly stakes, is run over thesuinc course at Epsom. For this 
year’s race there were 130 nominations, but of this number 
only seven appeared at the post. Lord Falmouth’s Spin- 
nway, who had won a few weeks previous the one thous- 
and guineas slake, was made a hot favorite, and won easily 
by a length, her owner’s second entry coming in second. 
Spinuwny was bred by Lord Falmouth, and is by Macaroni; 
dam, Queen Bertha. 
Another Occident.— A wonderful mustang, known ne 
Don Eiipha, has recently been shipped from Los Angeles 
to San Francisco. This remarkable “buckskin” without a 
pedigree, was worked in Arizona for a long time hauling 
stages and in the cavalry service. One of his feats was 
carrying a soldier 100 miles in a day. It was not until after 
ltis arrival in Los Angeles, however, that his trotting abili- 
ties became apparent, and having beaten 2:30 there he has 
shut himself out of further races in that locality. It is 
thought that with proper handling he will yet beat twenty. 
— Mr. Sandford’s Buy Final has been scratched for the 
Westchester cup. 
— Since his victories at Baltimore, Tom Ochiltree has 
been looked upon as the coming horse.

—The southern entrunce to the Kills and the adjacent

The course for first class boats was a distance of twenty 
miles. The second class were to turn the black can buoy 
oh Kcyport, around the Bed Bank buoy, and home, a dis- 
tance of fifteen miles. The boats reached the home stake- 
boat in the following order: — _ 
that there is not now a poor plank or timber in her. The 
interior arrangements have been entirely removed, and site 
is now being fitted with new cabins, staterooms, and other 
necessary conveniences of n first-class yacht, fore and aft. 
The new masts she has received have been set more up- 
right than formerly— that is, the rnke has been lessened, 
with a view of making her sail better before a light wind 
than she previously did; for then, on account of the great 
rake of the masts, it was almost impossible to keep the 
booms from swinging inboard without the aid of a block 
and taek, except In a stiff breeze, and with their aid the 
gaff would fall in and out, according to the strength of 
The breeze. She will not probably be "put in commis- 
sion” before the middle of June, hut then her owners — 
Gen. Butler and Col. French — will have a craft a yachts- 
man may be proud of.

TnE Nassau Boat Clcb Races.— The Harlem River 
never presented a gnyer sight than on Saturday last, when 
the steamer Setli Low ; having on hoard the members of the 
Nassau club and their friends, steamed among the hun- 
dreds of boats of every description that dotted its surface. 
Every boat house on the river was fully decorated with 
bunting in honor of the occasion, and the early closing 
movement enabled hundreds of enthusiasts to be present 
who would otherwise have been confined to the compan- 
ionship of higli stools and musty ledgers. The prelimina- 
ries to the racing commenced by Mr. L. L. Spring accept- 
ing the post of referee, Mr. W. E. McCredy that of judge 
at finish, and Mr. Englehardt timekeeper. The course was 
one mile straightaway, from the powder schooner to Flor- 
ence’s Dock, the last half of the flood tide assisting the 
first two races, but slack water prevailed when the race for 
the fours was called. At three o’clock the competitors in 
the first heat of the single scull race appeared in the follow- 
ing order: Edward W. Coles, New York shore; John A. 
Walker centre; James Wills, Westchester shore. Wills 
obtained a slight lead iu the commencement of the race- 
hut ere the half mile was reached Walker crept up ami 
passed him, crossing his bow n length clear, rowing to the 
end an easy winner in six minutes three seconds. 
The second trial heat brought out another field of three 
starling in the following order: Wm. B. Kemp, New York 
shore; Joseph Muir, Jr., centre; James D. Foot, Westches- 
ter shore. Foot won the heat in 7-.2GA, the others fouling. 
In the final heat Walker, the winner of the first triul 
heat, who had rowed stroke in one of the fours in the in- 
terim, won as he pleased iu 6:28$, defeating Foot by about 
three lengths. 
Four shells appeared at the starling point for the four- 
oared race, and made a most gallant contest. The Nassaus 
deserve great credit for being able to get together four as 
strong ciews as those which contested in this race. Their 
names and positions were as follows: — 
No. 1, New York shore.— Wm. Robison, bow; W. A 
Leo Union, No. 2; C. W. Macy, No. 3; Christopher C. Gun- 
ther, stroke. 
No. 2, from New York shore.— Frank G. Brown, bow - 
C- 9,- Peterson, No. 2. James B. Robert, No. 3; John a’ 
Walker, stroke. 
No. 3, Centre. — I. B. Reynolds, bow; Arthur B Froil 
No. 2; George C. Power No. 3; G. S. Floyd Jones, stroke’ 
N°- 4 . Weslchester.-Frank W. Bacon, bow; Lindsey 
Watson, No. 2; A. W. Montgomery, No. 3; John Gunsler 
stroke. 
The Jones crew got away'with a slight lend, but all were 
well up until half the distance had been accomplished 
when they met the young ebb tide, which caused the Jones 
and Walker crews to collide, the Gunsler crew then going 
to the front and winning the race; time, 5:25. Very beau- 
tiful silver goblets were presented to the winners of the 
several races, after which the parly steamed homeward 
well pleased with their day’s sport. 
— The Argouautas, of Bergen Point, one of the crack 
crews, has been materially strengthened by the addition of 
J. B. Ward, who rows in Walter Man's place, E 1. Smith, 
Benjamin Stephenson, and Fred. C. Eldred retaining their 
old places. 
IP? §oUe pcs. 
—Trinity College has met with a snd misfortune in tho 
death of Mr. H. S. Cameron, one of the University crew. 
While practicing in a shell a tug boat swell caught tho 
boat, and Mr. Cameron, who could not swim, went down 
in the swift current. Mr. Cameron’s father is a well 
known provision merchant of this city, lately of the firm 
of Jas. M. Smith & Son. 
— The following men have been selected for the Colum- 
bia College crew for the Saratoga race in June:— Sprague, 
bow; Hammond, 2; Murphy, 3; Sago, 4; Boyd, 5; and 
Captain Goodwin of last year’s crew as stroke. The col- 
lege Commencement will ‘take place on June 21st. , after 
which the crew will leave for Saratoga as quickly as possi- 
ble. A new boat, similar to that used last year, will be 
built and be ready by the time they reach Saratoga. John 
C. Babcock will begin soon the building of the flout on 
which the new club house is to be built. Tho plans and 
specifications of the club house, which is to cost $10,000, 
have been approved by the committee in charge of this 
work. Mr. Rees will take entire charge of the coaching 
on their arrival at Saratoga. They practice every afternoon 
on the Harlem River, and although the crew is composed 
of five new men, they are an unusually promising set, row- 
ing together steadily and in good form. 
Yale. — Maxwell umpired the game between Harvard 
aud the New Haven clubs to the aamiratiou of every one. 
The first match between Harvard and Yale, ’78, will take 
place in Boston on Saturday, June 5th, and the return 
game in New Haven on the following Saturday. 
Harvard. — The college color lias been changed to crim- 
son, or rather restored, as the adoption of magenta in ’64 
was owing to a necessity, the requisite number of crimson 
handkerchiefs having been unprocurable. Now Union, 
rest in peace. Tbe University crew are in active training 
and rapidly improving in form. 
Trinity.— Boating matters are progressing favorably 
both the College and Sophomore crews doing trood work.’ 
The Tablet appeals to the students to lake more interest 
in athletics. 
Princeton.— So tho cannon belongs to tlieU. S. Govern- 
ment, after all, and the marshal is to make a requisition for 
it. More from Princeton elsewhere. 
—The first of the series of games between the Yale and 
Princeton Colleges was played May 26th, at Piinceton, N. 
J., and resulted in an easy victory for the New Haven 
boys. The following is the score: —

Princeton College, May 22d, 1875. 
EDi-ron FonEST and Stream:— 
The first victory that the University nine won this eeuson was secured 
In a game with rhe Flyaways, of Brooklyn, on tho 20th Inst., tho Univer- 
sity obtaining an easy viclory. The ninih inning closed with the score 
of 10 to 4 in Its favor. This was the second game played by these two 
nines, and the second victory wrested from the Flyaways by the Prince- 
tons. The score of the first game played last Fall was 10 to 8 in favor 
of the latter. 
On Friday the best game, I bnvc good reason to believe, ever played 
by a professional and an amateur nine took place here between the Cen- 
tennials, of Philadelphia, and the University. There were few errors on 
either side throughout tho entire game. Tho batting of tho Princetous 
was eomowhat stronger than that of the professionals, and had it not 
been for a violent wind which was then blowing the University would 
have secured three or four two base hits. Mann’s peculiar style of do 
livery proved as effectual with the professionals as with the amateurs. 
Even Craver and Rndcliff both failed to make many good hits. The 
latter “struck out" for the first limo in months, it is said. The Prince- 
tons made a run in the second inning, and were "chicugoed” every other 
inning, though they secured their first, second, mid even third base* 
ecvi rul limes during the game. The Centennials secured one run in the 
third Inning, thus making the score 1 to 1. During the rest of tho game 
not a ran was scored until the last half of the ninih inning, when tho 
professionals by two excellent hits made nnoihcr run, closing tho game 
with the score of 2 to 1 On account of the excellence of the above 
gime I will uppeud the entire score, which is as follows:

Time of game— 1 hour and 30 minutes. 
The “ 0801100 ’’ difficulty, about which so much has been written I 
finally sol tied. The Rutgers Faculty having discovered that the gun ha 
always belonged to Princeton, and that Rutgers had no claim on it whal 
soever, sent n written expression of their willingness to return tho cap 
tured, or rather stolen, cannon. The hasty action of some of Prlneolon’ 
brave sons in breaking open the museum at Rutgers on the night of tin 
19th inst.. and in removing from thence sevoral muskets belonging loth, 
Lnited States Government, cume very near involving both colleges ii 
further trouble. This morning at 0 o'clock, however, the "cannon ' nr 
rived. I*s coming did not croute as much exc'teraent as was expected 
The muskets were returned to Rutgers to day also; bo neither inslitutioi 
has further c«u-e for complaint. The whole affair was decidedly foolhh 
and actually hew^e dismasting before tt was finally adjusted.
