AQUATICS,

ROYAL THAMES YACHT CLUB.

The third race of the season amongst yachts of this dis-
tinguished club came off yesterday, but owing to the very
unpromising state of the weather in the morning the attend-
ance of visitors on board the club steamer, the Eagle, was
very thin. Throughout the day the wind was squally and
variable, accompanied by heavy showers of rain and a
thunder storm in the afternoon, after which there was ever
and anon a calm.

The race was with yachts of the fourth class, for prizes in
plate, value 430 for the first boat, and £lO for the second,
and the following contended :
Yachts. Tons. 0 wners.
Dione , Mr Talfourd Field.
Quiver .. 12 Capt. D. T. Camberlayne.
Octoroon .. 12 .. )4r Cecil Long.
Folly
There was a time allowance of half a minute per ton, and
the course was from Gravesend to the Nore Light and back.
Mr Charles Tatham, a very old and experienced yachts-
man, was the °Seer of the day, in the absence of the noble
CommO4ore, Lord Alfred Paget, and the 'Vice, Lord De
Ros, but the la:ter superintended the arrangement of the
cutters at their statioo. The wind was west and by south,
and plenty of it, as will be tien by the time in which the
yaehte' ran down to the Nore. The race was started at 11h.
48m. Theis Waft no' advantage in position, and the cutters
all canted at the strait) moment, the Octoroon, however,
waiting till her mainsail jibed' over before she fairly set it.
The Dione first showed her jib-headed topsail, and the
others immediately followed her example, but with square
ones. The Folly took the lead, followed by the Quiver,
which just below Tilbury ran into the first place, the Folly
close behind her with her sheet right off; but in the lower
part of Gravesend Reach the Folly again drew past the
QuiVer, They went down right before the wind, shifting
topsails and carrying as much canvas as they could well
stand under, the wind freshening as the squalls came en.
The Octoroon soon filled the second place, and then these
became a gap of a cable's length between the first
ll and
second boats; but there being a lull at Leigh, they
were a
together again with scarcely half a dozen yards between
themc when the Folly by judicious sailing again drew otnad
and they rounded the Moro Light as follows
st. s.
Folly ....................... 2 2 20
Quiver ...................... 2 3 5
Octoroon ................. 2 335
Dione ........................ 2 4 0
They jibed round the lightship to the northward. The Dione
did not round well, losing time by going to leeward, still
carrying her jibheaded topsail, while the rest struck theirs.
As the ebb tide was still running, and the yachts had to
beat dead to windward all the way up, they courted the slack.
In the first board the Quiver went out right to windward of
the Folly, who shortly after was observed with a reef down,
the wind at the time being very heavy and squally, and the
Octoroon shortly after reached through her lee. With the
squall the wind came out from the north-west, and they
were all broken off. Just below Southand the Quiver was
leading by a quarter of a mile. the Octoroon being second,
and Folly third. Then came a thunderstorm, a calm, and
some catspaws. The Folly, having kept well close to the
south shore, got a nice breeze of wind, and passing the Oc-
toroon, went very near to the Quiver, and so close were they
all through that the slightest mischance would have changed
