THAMES YACHT CLUB.

The third match for the season came off yesterday. It was
originally intended that it should be sailed fr. Erith t the sore-
light and back agal,‘, but the want of wind compelled the Commo-
dore (Lord A. Paget) to shorten the course, and the boats, in co, se-
quence, only rounded the buoy at Blythe, and then went back to
Erith. The yachts in the match were these :-
1. Belvedere - - 25 tons - - - Lord A. Paget.
2. Ino - - - 25 tons - - - Mr. fl. Gibson.
3. Phantom - - 20 tons - - - Mr. Wilkinson.
4. Champion - - 25 tons - - Mr. Wickam.
5. Romulus - - 32 tons - - - Mr. H. Kennard.
6. Prima Donna - 25 tons - - Mr. S. Harvey.
7. Cygnet - - 25 tons Mr. H. Lambton.
8. Heroine - - 35 tons - - - Sir J. Cantu.

9. Fleur de Maire - 25 tons - - Mr. Twisden Hodges.
10. Secret - 25 tons - - Mr. J. W. Smith.
ii. Vixen - - - 25 tons.
There was so little wind that it would be impossible 'o predict, from
what took place yesterday, what are the respective powers of the
vessels, and what they are capable of performing. The buoy at the
Blythe was rouneed thus :-
7 mi..wes to 4, the Cygnet.
6 minutes to 4, the Heroine.
5 minutes to 4, the Secret.
2 minutes to 4, the Ino.
And the other yachts at some distance behind. At the winning-post
they came in thus:—

21 minutes 3 seconds to 7 o'clock, the Heroine.
17 minutes 10 seconds to 7 o clock, the Cygnet.
15 minutes 10 seconds to 7 o'clock, the Secret.
The cup was, therefore, won by the owner of the Heroine. There
were o❑ board the steamer which accompanied the match, in addi-
hon to a large number of ladies and gentlemen, a very efficient com-
missariat, furnished by Mr. Gore, to whom much credit is due for the
very elegant manner in winch he catered. The band of the Horse
Guards (li.ue) and the band of Mr. Adams were also in attendanee.
En addition to the presence of Lord A. Paget, there were in the
steamer the Duke of Beaufort, Lc . Paget, &c.
LONDON YACHT CLUB.

The first sailing match of the season amung-t the yachts of this
club was sailed yesterd.y, but undecided. Tne folhswing started :
Yachts. Tons. Owners.
Nautilus - - 6 - - J. T. Helms.
Hazard - • • 6 Ayckkurne and Charles.

Don - - - - 7 - - • J. G rdner,

The distance was from East Greenwich to Gravesend and back, in-
stead of to Erith, and hence the source of dispute. The Don took
the lead and kept it well, first rounding the flag-boat at ten mmutes
past live. As the terns of the club which apply to the Erith dis-
tance state that the first boat must round before fire, the match was
of course at an end. The matter thus stands at present, and will
bear much discussion.

MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT IN PARIS.—We sincerely
regret having to announce the death of Mr. Thomas Lyons, jun.,
eldest son ot Mr. Lyons, of the firm of Shackel and Lyons, the exten-
sive printers' ink makers, of Copp.ce-row, London. From letters
received, it appears that deceased (who was engaged in conduct-
ing a large establiqtment for ink-making, on behalf of his father,
about three miles from Paris, and on the banks of the Seine), pro-
ceeded on Sunday la,t, with some friends, to St. Cloud, where
they all remained during the night, and on Monday, contrary to
the advice of his companions, he embarked on board a small sail-
ing boat he had purchased, acoomi•anied only by a Swiss labourer,
who was in his employ We know not how far they had progresses',
but a sudden gust of wind, about mid-day, upset the boat, when,
melancholy to add, as neither of them could swim, poor Lyons
lost his life, and his companion, who was to all appearance dead,
was, after great perseverance, restored. Twenty minutes elapsed
ere the body of Mr. Lyons was found ; and although every endeavour
was made to resucitate him, proved unavailing. He wag in his
twenty-second year, and a young man ot considerable intellectual ac-
quirements, possessing every good moral quality and social viriue,
standing upon the pinnacle of estimation with those who knew him in
London, Paris, and a great portion of the continent, over which he
was a frequent traveller; he had engrafted himself strongly upon their
affections, proinWng to adorn in no orainary degree that portion of
society with-which he was identified. His loss will be severely felt by
a doting family, and intensely deplored by his friends and acquaint-
ances, and certainly by the writer of this humble tribute to his me-
mory, who knew him from infancy.

Captain and Lady Adela Ibbetson have arrived at
Leamington Spa from head-quarters of the regiment, the 11th Hus-
sars, at Coventry.

SUICIDE IN DISGRACEFUL CIRCUMSTANCES.—On
Friday afternoon, Mr. Carter held an inquest at the Royal Oak,
Granby-street, Waterloo road, on the body of a gentleman, at present
unknown, whose death occurred under very disgraceful circumstances.
Mary Price, alias Smith, said that she resided at No. 19, Granby-
street, Waterloo-road. On the 3d instant she met the deceased at

the Surrey Theatre. Since that period they had been cohabiting to •
gether, and last week they went to Gravesend, where they remained
a day and a night. They returned from Gravesend about a quarter
before nine at night, and deceased sent witness's landlady for some
ginger beer and ale, of which they all drank. lie then borrowed
ss. of witness's landlady, alleging that he had nothing smaller
than a 5/. note. She (witness) had seen deceased change two Si.
notes, out of which he had paid 2/. for rent, and had redeemed
some articles in pledge for her. When on hoard the steam-boat
he told her that he bad a 5/. note in his possession, but when
his pockets were searched only three halfpence were found
therein. On the night of 'Wednesday last they went to the
Grapes, Stiflelk-street, to a concert. Alter they left they went to
two public-houses in the Waterloo-road, where they had some gin
and water. They then returned to witness's lodgaigs, and wentat to
