early part of the day' resulted in " ao match " in each case,
and it wee deckled to sail for both plum again cei Friday,
with this alteration, that the coarse &Geld be only owe
round, with allowance for time. The race in bothwLsed,
however, was won by veers baring to receive time,
therefore there is no necessity to gin, the eagle of allow.

At 2 p.m., an obedience to signal from the commodore,
each yacht in the roadstead belonging to the club dressed
out instantaneously under its own arch of coloured bunting,
and, as a large number were at anchor, they produced a
very striking and beautiful effect. Boiit.raciog with the
different boats of the yachts followed, liberal prizes being
given to the winners. The band of her Majesty's 65th Re-
giment played a selection of music on the pier-head during
the day, and all parts of the pier warn thronged, as on the
previous day's racing.

NOVEL SCENE IN THE TYNE.--SHIELDN, SATUR-
DAY NIGHT.—A novel scene, such am never was probably
observed on a commercial river before, was winnowed by •
large concourse of people on the Tyoe this eveniog. At
four o'dock MOWS. Palmer Brothers launched from their
building yards at Jarrow and Howden four large iron steam-
ships at the same instant of time. Upon the discharge of a
cannon, all being ready, they glided into ,the river simul-
taneously, and without the learnt accident occurring. The
vessels thus launched are the Latona, • large steamship,
to trade between London and Italy ; the John kflotyre,
screw collier of large tonnage, for Messrs. Corr, of London ;
the No. I. • steamship, for a Rotterdam firm; and the
Europa, for an Italian company, to carry passenger. between
Genoa sod Sardinia. Their aggregate tonnage is 4,300 ; and
besides these Messrs. Palmer have 16,000 tons of iron ship-
ping on the stocks.
Tug BOAT ACCIDENT IN THE FIRTH or
FoxTIL—
The three young men who left Grantor. in • pleasure-yacht
on Monday night to proceed to Joppa have not yet been
hoard of ; and there DOW remains no doubt that the surmise
lof their having been drowned is correct. The following
facts, additional to what we have already published, are all
that have yet transpired in regard to the melancholy affair.
The names of the three young men who were in the boat
were Alexander Robinson, aged thirty-one, principal assis-
tant to the Equitable Loon Company ; John Allan. egad
eighteen, oldest appreutiee to the same company ; and
Toomas Fall Edge, aged thirty, who supported himself by
his private means. It appears that Edge and Robertson
had taken lodgings at Joppa for a mouth, and that they
had hired a small y echt and boat from Mr. Liston,
Granton, which they intended to keep anchored at
Joppa for the purpose of fishing from some hours every
morning previous to coming up to Edinburgh to their daily
employment On Monday night Edge and Robertson invited
Allan to sail with them round to Joppa, and the party left
(fronton harbour about ten o'clock. When they set out
the weather was wet, but there was little wind, and, the
sea being quite calm, no danger was apprehended. On
Tuesday morning. between live and six o clock, two men
who were engaged breaking stones on the shore at Fisherrow
observed • boat about a mile off beating in for the har-
bour. Whilst they were reganling it • sudden gust of
wind from the south-west caught the mils, and the
yacht almost immediately tilled and went down, carry-
leg with her the three young men, whom the stonebreakers
had observed. Whim the yacht disappeared beneath the waves
the men on shore saw nothing on the surface of the water
but • small boat which had been attached to the one that
had the young men on board. In the course of the morning
the email boat drifted ashore mud was subsequently recog-
nised by Mr. Liston as thu boat that left Gmriton harbour
with the yacht ; so that there remains no doubt that the
young men have all met • watery grove. Mr. George Monro,
S.S.C., in conjunction with the Equitable Loan Company,
offered M. to any Newhaven fishermen who would recover
the bodies ; hut the men refused to put to em unlees they
were guaranteed so much for their labour in the event of
the search proving unsuccessful, aml the Equitable Loan
Company withdrew their offer. The intention of attempt-
ing to raise the bodies will sot bowtver be abandoned. We
understand that the parents of the young men, the manager
of the Loan Company, and a few friends are organisiog •
subscription with the view of adopting measures to have
this design carried out —Srobinian.
