enewitace according to area of canvea /puled cease into
C, them was a coneidemble degree of interest felt.

they wore them settled :—The Arrow to give the Lulwortit
lm. 565., end the Extremism 16m. 205., while the Lulworth
should give the Extrampaaa 14m. 24e. The yachts were
soon out sleight on their way to the Nab Light, and no more
of them was seen until 3 o'clock, when a topsail appeared
over the had st Novae Cmithaorbleb, as exam It wee made
lout to be the Warm-des was followed by the Arrow, and s
very animated race home followed. The Lulworth pasted
the 11. g vessel at 3h. 13m. 68.., end the Arrow at
9h. 14m. 40a., and Ulm ended Obi of the prettiest races area
here for some time. The Extravaganza did not chow for
some time and hams thought she had given up.
Jed u tbs yachts were entering the Roods; her Majesty and
the Prince Came left East Cowes. in the Fairy, on her way
to Portsmouth, followed by the Elfin. Her Majesty and his
Royal Highness were thus enabled to witness the does of the
contest for the cup given by the Prince Coneort, and it was
evident, from the commotion on the deck of the royal yacht,
that the Illoatriou• personages en board were not indifferent
spectators of the exciting some.
The.. is atilt some =certainty as to the starting-place for
the Emperor's Cup, on Feeley—whether it will be Cowes or
Yarmouth.

DOG6ETTB COAT 4ND LIDO:.
The competitors for Doggett'e livery and badge
rowed yesterday, and popular an this contest has ever been,
we never saw so vast an assemblage congregated to witness
Meson this occasion. The course, it will be remembered, is
from the Swan, at London-bridge, to the Swan, at Chelma,
against tide, a distance much greater then that appointed for
more modern contests. The following were entered
Charles John Turner. Rotherbithe.
Joseph Remy Mills, Themes-bank.
John George Wyatt, Custom-house.
Joseph Goddard, Tower.
Jacob J. Bartholomew White.
John Charles Young. Woolwich.
To the coat and badge as originally given have been added
five-eighths of the interest of South Sea Stock, bequeathed by
Sir W. Joints. amounting to 41. 17e. 9d., for the second man,
and the remaining three-eighths, 2L llia. 9J., to the thtrd; end
the Fishmongers Company, who have charge of this conteat,
I have recently added a gems to the first moo, a guinea and
a half each be the ftmth sad fifth men. and a guinea to the
sixth. The competitors, who me ;uteruses same term of
apprenticeship has expired since the preceding wager, or
rather draw for the wager, took their stations ender the
direction of Mr. Maeda, barge:ewer to the Fishmongers*
Cowpony, at a little after one, Wyatt being on the Middlesex
side of the river, and next to him blille. On the Surrey side
nearest the shore was Young, and then White ; Turner and
Goddard being in the centre of the river. After some tremble
and delay they en got away together, when Young, White,
and MWe began to show in front. By dint of very
rapid and powerful rowing Young took a marked
laid, Turner coming up hand over hand upon Mills,
and soon taking the third position. Young continued
to row strongly and steadily ahead of the others,
with eery prospect of ultimate success till off Davy's Read,
when he kesss hampered by the craft swinging, the first
of the fined beginning to make, and his muter eosnMg upon
him before be had well recovered Limed?, he was camined,
and Turner, who was close at hand, jug shoed of White,
went into the first plats, which be never forfeited. Re was
for a time closely followed by Mille and Young, Wyatt and
Goddard being the next pair. Young was soon in hie boat
at work again. but amording to the natal conditions of this
wager he had forfeited his claim, owing to the accident spoken
of. Re, however, showed himself a young man of no ordi-
nary gems, for he pulled in so gallant a manner as to acquire
the third place before the end of the ram, when Mr. Bands
kindly undertook to ley his sec before the Fishmongers
Company. The whams came in fleet by twenty lengths,
Young was not above seven er eight behind Mills.

A grand conservative demonstration, It is said,
is intended to be held at Walton-on-the-New ugly in •
September, at which the Right lion. W. Berhiord and
C. Du Cane, EN , will be present.
