third; the others finished at Wide intervals in the order
named.

particular incident occurred in the run down to the War-
ner, which was luffed round as follows in a tumble of a
tideway which threw the water liberally over their decks,
and the breeze fresh enough, all four sending down topsail
and housing topmast :

Luffing Vound,the Warner, there was found to be quite
c !lough sea on in the tideway, but the cutters bravely bat-
tl-xl through it in their third and last heat to the westward.
Under the Noman they looked magnificent, their sails dis-
tended by the strong breeze with the sun shining full upon
them, the sea skeeting over their hulls, and all sufficiently
close to each other to render the picture complete in all de-
tails. The Mosquito hugged the island shore under the
Ryde Sands, through the tumble of the sea, and, to all ap-
pearance, with sound judgment materially increasing her
lead. The others stood in well for Portsmouth harbour en-
trance before going about. The middle buoy was eventually
rounded for the last time, and on the vessels' return before
the wind, the Gilkicker Point being opened by them in this
order :

The time allowance gave the 50 guinea Cup to the Vin-
des, and the second prize of 20 guineas to the gallant little
15-year old Mosquito, one of Mare's iron-built craft, which
the best of our modern builders cannot approach, if any
correct judgment may be formed from the performances of
the craft they have turned out of hand of late years. The
Mosquito was much better sailed than she was during the
Royal Yacht Squadron Regatta last week at Cowes.
A second race for yaehts was also sailed over the same
course, but only twice round, for a prize given by the com-
mittee of the Portsmouth and Sonthsea Royal Regatta, as
