AQVATICS.—The Brighton regatta commenced an
Thursday, and drew a brilliant concourse to the
town. A number of races, matches, &c., were
arranged to be spread over the three days during
which the regatta was to last, hut so many yachts
remained weatherbottnd at a distance that the pro-
gramme necessarily underwent much modification,
some of the principal events designed for the first
day being postponed. On Thursday, accordingly,
but a single race was run, consisting of a highly in-
teresting match for 120 guitieis, between two cele-
brated competitors, the A tans and the Swedish
schooner Svcridge. About, half-past eleven the start
was effected from the chain-pier, and the rival yachts
maintained a close context throughout the whole
course, which led round a boat in Shoreham harbour,
thence five miles out to NM round another boat,
moved opposite the pier, afterwards to Rottingdean,
and hack to the chain-pier, fifty-two miles in all.
At the close the Alarm, came in a winner by only
two minutes, having sailed the distance in four hours
and ten minutes.
