A Match was played on Tuesday last, between six Gentle-
men of Ryde, and the same number of Southampton, which,
after a hard contest, was won by the former.
On Monday se'nnight a grand Match was began on South-
sea Common, between the Portsea Island and Emsworth Clubs,
which, from the celebrity of the latter Club, excited greater in-
terest than, any match that has been made for several years.

At the close of the day the Portsea had made 27 runs, and one
wicket down of their .second innings, when the game was
given up, much to the disappointment of all the admirers of
this manly amusement, and greatly to she inconvenience of
many of their own friends, who came into the town the next
day, expecting to see the close of the Game.
A Match was played at Noman's Land, Hertfordshire on
Thursday and Friday, between the St. Albans and the Wheat:-

THE HAMPSHIRE REGATTA.

PORTSMOUTH, AUG. 25.—We last week expressed our.
selves confident from the exertions that the Managing Com-
mittee of the Subscribers for the Portsmouth, Portsea, and
Gosport Annual Regatta were making, in concert with the
Owners of the Vessels and Boats which were entered, that,
provided the weather should be favourable, the admirers of
Nautical skill would, on the days of the Regatta, be highly
gratified. Ahd we have now great satisfaction in stating that
our most sanguine expectations have been more than realized.
Thursday and Friday were days in all respects finer than were
ever beheld, for a trial of ability in Cutter and Boat Sailing.
At an early part of each day, the Water abreast of the Platform,
Southsea, and Haslar, was covered with Yachts and Boats of
every description, in continual motion, filled with distinguished
and highly respectable parties ; all of whom seemed delighted
with the scene that surrounded them ; and the breeze, though
sufficiently commanding for the Sailing Matches, did not in the
least a_gitate the Sea, so that the smallest boaf was navigated
with the same safety as the largest and best appointed Yachts ;
and the elegantly dressed Ladies who crowded them, remained
both days the whole time cruising about, without being in
the least incommoded, either from sea spray or the least
unpleasant motion. Similar delight was manifested by an
immense assemblage on the Platform and Ramparts, and
on Southsea, contiguous to the Subscription Promenade
Rooms, and on the Gosport shore, at Blockhouse Fort, &c.—
In the front of the Promenade Rooms, at Southsea, the Sub-
scribers made Purses, for juvenile sailors, who were stimulated
thereby to put their powers into action, by sculling with one
scull, in small boats, along the Shore, for a given distance,which
afforded much amusement to the company there situated, in ad-
dition to the more grand operations appointed for the respective
days.
The first day consisted of three matches—the first of sailing
wherries of the first class; and seven very superior boats started
and went round the course twice, in a style not to be surpassed.
—They came in in the following order :
Hero, Smith I Sovereign, Burford I Bang Up, Owen
Packet, Little Ox, Jeffery Turkish Knight, Passels

jno,

Coote.

The next Match was between six vessels, from 13 to 23 tons,
which, after a hard contest, came to the point of decision in the
following rotation :
George and William, Judd Four Brothers, Harvey
Fox - - Morgan I Mary - Wood
Favourite - Grinder Frolic - Lovell
The last Match of this day was by Rowers, and consisted of
seven boats, and the jolly Watermen ended their labours in
the following order :
Fanny, Fernell James, Macdonald I Dapper, West
Snail Castle, Harcus I Emma, Robinson I Aim, Beer

Maygower
. __

- Salter.

The Second Day the Matches were also three, and equally
well contested, consisting, first, of nine sailing wherries of the
second class, not exceeding 25 feet in length, which was de-
cided as follows :

Dart, Elliot Industry, Baron I Dart, Bailey
Camelion, Knight Charlotte, Grubb Spectator, Pound
Mary, Judd Challenger, Giles
The second for this day was a well contested Sailing Match
of nine vessels under 13 tons, which returned in the following
rotation :

James and Mary, Robinson
Rectitude, Wood

George the Fourth, Robinson
Night Owl, Gawn
William & Edward, Burnett
Exmouth, Diaper

Commerce, March
Olive Branch, Parsons
Rocket, Garrett

This splendid Regatta conchided with an interesting match
between five vessels of the First Class, being from 23 to 35
tons, and greater exertions and skill were never manifested.—
Afteryassing round the Horse, the buoy of the Edgar, and a
boat oil ' the Kicker, twice, they finished as under stated :
Accommodation, Judd I King's Fisher, Saunders
Mary, Baker I Cygnet, Groves
James and Jane, Cromwell. _

It is but justice to observe that 'we understand the Master of
the Cygnet was disappointed in some sails, and the James and
Jane met with an accident, in breaking her peak halyards,
which necessarily placed them considerably in the rear of the
three others.

The following Noblemen and Gentlemen attended in their
Yachts, viz. Duke of Buckingham, Earl Spencer, J. Fleming,
Esq. 111. P., Sir George Thomas, Sir G. Leeds, Sir J. H.
Whitshcd, Mr. Maxey, Mr. T. A. Smyth, Mr. Lindegren,
