NEW CLUB HOUSE.—We have been favoured with the
sight of a design for a new club house for the Royal
Yacht Squadron,- by H. Darbishire, Esq., architect, of
Trafalgar-square, London. The present house has been
long found to be far too small, and totally unsuited for
this Queen of Yacht Clubs ; and we are happy to see
that there is at last a move made to substitute for it so
splendid a building as that designed by Mr. Darbishire,
which combines all the accommodations and comforts of
the present day. •
ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.—Parties are here from the
Electric Telegraph Company, arranging for taking the
wires across the Medina, from West to East Cowes, to
connect Osborne with London.

MARINE VILLAS.—A number of men are employed
cutting down the beautiful evergreen oaks, and other
stately trees, on the grounds of Osborne-lodge on the
Parade at West Cowes, formerly the property of George
IV., to clear the land for the erection of a number of
marine villas. Seven are to be on the Parade, adjoining
the Royal Yacht Squadron house, and sixteen on Pros-
pect-hill, above it.
