COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT.
(FROM OUR °MN CORRESPbNDET.)
COWES, AUG. 23,
ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON REGATTA.
PRINCE ALBERT'S CUP.
All the yachts excepting the Gloriana were started
again at ten o'clock this morning. The breeze was
light from the northward. They proceeded to the
westward, but the wind soon fell off and all was calm,
but the minds of all were not serene. Soon after
six, P.M., a breeze sprang up from the westward, but
at 7.20 there are no tidings of the yachts. ,

menced a strict search, and during that and the fol-
lowing day they succe2ded in finding 86 lbs. of to-
bacco, 30 lbs. of cigars, and 36 bottles of eau de
Cologne ! Now, the law allows each man one pound
of tobacco, and there are 150 men on board the Vic-
toria and Albert ; so that this smuggling was not a
very wholesale affair, though it has caused a vast deal
of talk; and as people are very partial to all that is
wonderful, and tried to make this affair the more so,
some of the knowing ones, in their own way, seized
the royal yacht and condemned her, while others dis-
charged the poor Custom-house officers here for
obeying the orders of their London superiors. Much
ado has been made about nothing, for had the men
claimed the tobacco it must have been given up to
