4 Trotting Meeting to be Held3Text Fall.

The dreams of those who hoped to see

established in our midst an association whoseaim and object should be the improvementand developementof the trotting horse, seemsat last to approach a realization. We noticed

a week ago the gathering at the Phcenix

Hotel when a few gentlemen enthusiastic

upon the subject pledged themselves to theestablishment of an association such as we

have described. They took all the prelimi-

nary steps, and made what is the most impor-

tant step in all enterprizes, big and little abeginning. They adopted atempoarry organ-

ization, and made arrangements for a largerand more general meeting of the breeders.That meeting was held, according to an-

nouncement, at the Pcenix Hotel Mondahy.The meeting was a complete success, both

in numbers and influence. A permanentorganization was effected, and we may now

look forward to an annual trotting meeting.The following officers were elected:Hon. T. J. Megibben, of Harrison, Presi-

dent.J. M. Patterson, of Jessamine, Vice Presi-

dent.W. II. Wilson, of Fayette, Secretary.H. T. Duncan, Jr., of Fayette, Treasurer.Twenty shares have already been taken of

$250 each, and it was decided to hold a meet-ing next fall.

Upon motion, the President appointed thefollowing committee to adopt rules and regu-lations to govern the association: Gen. J. F.Robinson, Jr., Dr. L. llerr and J. M. Patter-son.

A committee was also appointed to conferwith the officers of Kentucky Association andascertain the best terms upon which the as-

sociation grounds can be had for trottingpurposes; also to decide what purses shouldbe given next fall to trotters. The committeeconsisted' of Mr. II. T. Duncan, Jr., B. J.Treacy, Esq., Maj. Henry Buford and W. II.Wilson, Esq. They were instructed to re-

port at the next meeting.The meeting adjourned to meet at the

Pho:nix Hotel, on Monday, the ISth inst., at11 o'clock.

Ueatli ol the Trotting Stallion,Sentinel.

It is with sincere regret that we announcethe death of the trotting stallion, Sentinel,which occurred at the farm of Dr. S. Price,on Tuesday the 12th. We have not heard thecause of his death, but he was found dead in

his stable, and it is enough to know he isueau. centinel nad just completed ins sec-

ond season in Kentucky, and no horse hadmade, in so, short a time a better reputation.Asa trotter he had but few equals for thehandling he has had. He trotted last year,after making a season, over the KentuckyAssociation Course, in 2:293, with but littlepreparation, and it was confidently believedthat he would this year trot in 2:25.

Since his season closed this year he hasbeen in training, and has been going veryfine, and Dr. Price had reason to believe hecould trot faster than he ever did. ne waspopular in the stud, and his produce did himgreat credit. His full brother, Volunteer, isnow one of the most popular sires in Amer-ica, and stands at $200, and there is no rea-

son to think Sentinel would not have becomeas much noted. Dr. S. Price farmed him lastyear for a term of years from his owner,Mr. Edwin Thorn, of New York. Thebreeders of Kentucky will regret his deathalmost as much as Mr. Thorn. lie was not ahandsome horse, but one of great power, andhis progeny showed immense power and bone,

lie was a rich bay, 15 J hands high; ten yearsold. Was sired by Rysdyk's Hambletonian,1st dam Lady Patriot. 2d dam the LewisHulse mare.

Trotting at Eminence.The fair at Eminence, Ky., opened on

Tuesday last, with quite a crowd in attend-

ance. The first event of the day was to bethe trotting race, to take place at 9 o'clock,but which was deferred on account ofthe rain until 2 o'clock in the afternoonfor stallions, mares and geldings of any ageon the beautiful half-mil-e track. This was

quite an interesting trot, but there was con-

siderable difficulty in getting the horses off,

as there was some jockeying, and BillyHoskins, the entry of Mr. W. II. Wilson,would not turn on the track, which also causeda delay. In this race there were seven en-

tries. At the hour we took the train forLexington the race was not finished.

FirH Heat The start was pretty good, with

Ella Wright in the lead, and the balanceclosely after her; but she managed to hold

the same position to the end of the heat, with

John Chambers second, Brown Mary dis-

tanced. Time, 2:40J.Second Heat At the tap of the drum Ella

Wright took the lead, Tom Fields second,

John Chambers third. The horses trotted

very prettily in this heat, and going down the

back stretch John Chambers showed a fine

burst of speed, and took the lead and come

home winner, Ella Wright second, Clark Chief

third the others in a string. Time, 2:42.

Thu d Ileal After several false starts the

drum was tapped and unfortunately the horses

got a very poor start, as Liars niei was! some distance from the string and Billy Hos

kins at least twenty lengths behind him. JohnChambers got the lead at the start, "Ella

Wright secind, Tom Fields third, and theycame homctin the same order. Time, 2:42.

iNed AViMeftand Tom Fields did considerable.running in tins Heat and the judges placedthem fifth and sixth in the race.

Fourth Heal Tom Fields got off in the lead

at the tap of the drum, Ella Wright second

John Chambers third. As they passed the

stand at the end of the first half, Ella Wrighthad the lead, Clark Chief second, John Cham-

bers third. The positions were not materiallychanged in the heat except that Chani',cr8gave up third place to Ned Wilder. EllaWright first, Clark Chief second, Ned Wilderthird. Time, 2:42.

The fifth heat was a dead heat betw eenJohn Chambers and Ella Wright, and we leftthe ground at this time and consequently didnot see the race finished. We suppose ClarkChief will get third money and the first andsecond will go to Ella Wright and JohnChambers. The following is a

Fine Horses.Mr. John Hughes, of Fayette, sold, a s

since, to a gentleman in Richmond, Va.,a splendid pair of coach horses for $1,750.

We saw Mr. Hughes driving a fancy teamon Monday last, closely matched sorrels, withwhite faces and legs, and good travelers. Hewas quite successful at the Harrodsburg fairlast week, for he took the first premium on

coach horses, and first on buggy horses, alsofirst for single horse.

Yousig Trotters From St. Louis.Mr. J. V. Schenck reached our city a few

days since with two promising trotting fillies,which he is offering for sale. One is a three- -

year old, by a son of Geo. M. Patchen, damEoxana, by Old St. Lawrence; the other,two years old, by Stonewall Jackson, dam thesame. They are brown, of fine size, withgood appearance, and both show most excellent

trotting action. Mr. Schenck will also selltheir dam, Koxana, who was sent from Mis-

souri to Kentucky last year, to be bred toMambrino Patchen, and who has a record of2:42. She has been stinted this season toDarlbay. He has for sale a filly one year old,by Plantaganett, dam Eoxana. Mr. Schenckis an old horseman, and he has his three andtwo-ye- old nicely broken to harness, al-

though they Iiave had but little training.From what we have seen of their speedand action, and from their breeding, weshould think that with proper handling theywould make No. 1 trotters.

Mule Kaee at Eminence Fair."There was a premium offered at Eminence

fair yesterday for the fastest mule, half mile,best two in three, for which there was five

entries. Won by Mr. Buford's mule in twostraight heats, Mr. Jackson's second. Time,1:16, 1.15. It is well known that a mulerace is generally amusing, and this one wasparticularly so, as the riders and mules bothbecame considerably excited. No one washurt, but everybody lan -- hed heartily.
