TILE ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON REGATTA,-

VISIT OF AF.O MAJES

COWL:, TUESHAY Nto c.—ln consequence of the early
hour at which the boat left here, to meet the last London
train, hut a mere announcement of the yachts that were
started fur her Majtsty's Cup of 100 guineas was stmt;
but it may he proper to state that; the Lelia, 74,
Twisden Hodges' Esq. M.P.; the Gauntlet, 65, William
Peareth, Esq. ; and the Lavroek, 65, Captain C. 11. Williams,
It were also entered for the mune, but did not start. The
coarse WAS from the starting vessel, moored otiCowes Castle,
proceeding eastward, passing Norris Castle, Osborne House,
Hyde, and round the Nab Light, returning by the same route,
and from thence proe,sling westward, round a vessel sta-
tioned off Yarmouth, returnia; and finishing at the start-
ing vessel. The course was about sixty 11111141 in length.
At starting there was a gentle breeze blowing from
N.E. to N N.E., and the Arrow was the first vessel to
gut fairly under way, and soon took the lead, followed by
the Freak, Gondola, and Bacchante, which position was
well maintained fur about half an hour, when Cie wind
alnesst dropped to a calm. The Freak afterwards luffed to
the windward, awl catching a light breeze from the east-
ward, she soon came alongside the Arrow, and iu a few
minutes she was seen taking the lead until near to the point
oil' No Mar.'s Buoy, when the Arrow again made way unun
h-r, coil in rounding the Nab Ught at 12.20, the Freak was
cut out. A breeze now sprung up from the south, and
once more the Freak passed her rival, and led the way until
about a mile from the quarantine ground, when a general
calm came on, and they could du little more than drift with
the tide. At the quarantine vessel, however, a good a ind
came on 6ont the west, which was taken simultaneously by
both vessels, and the Arrow once more t.,ek the lead, pass.

On arriving off this point the Gondola gave up, and took
no further part in the contest. The other vessels kept the
same rel dive positions for a short distance, but soon after-
wards the Arrow, being well to the wind, kept increasing
the distance between her and the Freak, and on arriving off
Lymington, was at least nine minutes a-head of her, but
from here her progress was all but stopped, for the nine'
dropping eutireiy, and a dead calm coming on, she was
drifted by the tide at least two miles beyond tke vessel at
Yarmouth, the extreme boundary of the course, the Freak
Ming adern about a quarter of a toile. A light breeze got
up front the north-east, by which they were enabled to re-
trace the ground they had so unprofitably lost, and succeeded
in rounding the station-vessel utf Yarmouth soon after five
tie:loci:, the Freak being 9 minutes, and the Bacchante, 4d
minutes astern. A strong contest ensued from this point,
between the Arrow and reak as they were beating up the
Weidern Channel together. The darkness coming on, they
saw nothing more of the Bacchante, but were fully impressed
that no danger from her was to be apprehended, and great
was the surprise of the captain of the Arrow, on her arrival
off the starting vessel, to find that the Bacchante had
already been there before them and claimed the prize. This
eircumstanee may be accounted for in this menner—that as
the Bacchante was so far behind on the course to Yar-
mouth, she was the first totake advantage of the little wind
that sprang up, while the others were On their return from
the point where they had severally overshot the mark.
Owing to some mistake of the light of the station vessel, the
Arrow, in coming in, kept close inshore, and went into the
I harbour. She had, therefore, to return and get round the
vessel, a loss to her of four minutes, but this mistake was
immaterial, as it did not alter the result of the match. The
yachts came in as under:
b. min. Fee.

Arrow 9 39 0
Fr 9

The ii;easante was then declared the winner, and the
prize, which is a splendid massive silver urn and cover, will
be presented to B. 11. Junes, Esq., the owner. to-morrow.
At about five o'clock in the afternoon the Fairy, royal
steam yacht, with the royal standard of England floating
from the main, was seen proceeding front tile direction of
Osborne, and it was soon made known that her Majesty and
the royal children were on board. The vessel then entered
the channel, and proceeded slowly:to the westward, between
the fleet of yachts and the Club-house. Her Majesty was
on deck, and appeared to ho highly pleased with the nu-
merous trim vessels lying at the station. She courteously
acknowledges) the marks of loyalty with which she was re-
ceived. The Fairy then proceeded up the West Channel
to allow her Majesty an opportunity of witnessing the pro•
gress of the yachts that were contending for the prize given
by her, hut this must have been considerably stripped of its
interest from the cati,e above stated. Soon alter seven
o'clock the Fairy returned from her short cruise, and pro-
ceeded direct to Osborne.

The race fur the Loyal Yai.lit Squadron plate to-morrow
will be warly contested, the fulluwiug entries having been
made fur the same :

The coons will be the same as for the Queen's cup.
The greatest possible interest is manifested here as to the
extraordinary performances of the American yacht America
at the recent regatta at Uric, where, with the greatest ease,
she distanced all other competitors, although then not
allowed to enter the match for the cup for yachts of all
nations, through some trifling technical objection as to
her ownership. That point, if it ever had any validity, has
been waived here, and it has been finally determined that
she shall compete with about seventeen others for Prince
Albert's Cup, of 100/., on Friday next, which is also for
yachts of all nations, and it appears to be the general
opinion here that if there should be anything approaching
to a stiff breezy there is nothing afloat that can take the
lead of her. Igor owners arc still willing to back her
against any other to any amount, but up to this moment I
have not heard that that challenge has been accepted. A
large number of persons have been on board within the last
few days, who have expressed great satisfaction at her
arrangement and perfectly novel construction.
