DOVER REGATTA.

Yesterday (Monday) this regatta came off in presence
of some ten thousand spectators.
Among the company we observed the Earl of
Guildford, R. Rice, Esq., the patrons, and a host
of resident gentry and visitors. The day was uncom•
tnonly fine, with a good sailing breeze from the east-
ward. The first race was to have been between yachts
not exceeding 20 tons, for a cup of 20/. This match did
not fill, and the first race was a sailing match between
luggers belonging to the Cinque Ports. The first boat
10/., second boat 3/., third boat 11. 10s. For this race
five boats started at half.past twelve, viz.:—
Lucy, Kingston, L. Jarvis Red, white, and blue

Dixon, Dover, R. Atberden—Red burgee, white ball.

Stagg, Dover, W. Davidson—Red burgee.
Queen Victoria,Dover, R. Hogg —Blue bergee,white ball.
Ann. Dover, F. Atherton—Blue burgee.
This was the great sailing match of the day. The
course lay from the committee vessel moored in the
centre of the Bay, round a buoy oft the Admiralty Pier,
to the South Sand light-vessel, and back to the com-
mittee boat. In rounding the buoy the Stag took the
lead. Here the Lucy, of Kingsdown, carried away her
mainyard, and became disabled. The Stag still kept
her advantage, closely followed by the Ann, of Dover.
The distance sailed was about fourteen miles. The boats
came in as under :
Stag
Ann
Queen Victoria 3
Dixon 4
Second Race, by amateurs belonging to the Cinque
Ports, in second class four-oared galleys, for a purse
of 71., to be divided, as follows:—First boat, 41.;
second ditio, 21 ; third ditto, 11. The following started,

and came in as under:—
Union—Red, white chequered ...(Gunner Darling) 1
Pink—Red and white perpendicular (J. Terry) 2
Witch—Red, white cross (Corporal Ramsey) 3
The third race was between first-class four-oared
regatta-built galleys, not exceeding 29 feet in length,
open to the Cinque Ports; first boat, 12/ ; second ditto,
31.; third ditto, 21,
For this race the following five boats started:—
Mosquito, Dover—Red—T. Calmer.
riltdge, Dover—Pink—J. Ellender.
Flora, Dover—Red, with white centre—G. Devling.
Metre, Folkestone—Dark blue—H. Jeffreys.
Lelia, Hastings—White and blue horizontal—C. Hildred.
This was the most exciting race of the day. At
starting the Folkestone boat took the lead and kept it
for three parts of the course, hardly pressed by the
Mosquito, of Dover; here the Mosquito drew upon the
Folkestone boat, and at the winning post came in about
two lengths a head. The other competitors were no-
where. Punt and other matches followed, and an excel-
lent day's sport was achieved.

* The Boulogue receipts are included, for the first
time, in these returns.

now say with THE HARVEST.—We may
confi-
dence, as of an ascertained fact, that the harvest of the pre-
sent year, which is on the point of completion, has been not
merely satisfactory, but splendid, both as to the weight of
the crops and the quality of the grain. It is the general opi-
nion that there has not been so good a harvest for many
years. When to this is added that the potato blight is only
very partial, and that the turnip crop is large, we may feel
assured that the first of material blessings—cheap and good
food—is secured for the corning year. This ought to be a
matter of universal gratitude to the Giver of all Good. Let
the productive classes use their prosperity with moderation,
and the operatives lay by against the less favourable days
which are sure to return.— Leeds Mercury.
SLAVE EMANCIPATION.—Mr. E. Creaswell, of New
Orleans, died a few days since, and_by will emancipated his
slaves, 51 in number, granting also sufficient money to each
of them to insure expenses into the free states.

Captain Francis Ormond is reported to have died
at Torrington-place, Plymouth. This gallant officer
has just been promoted to the reserved half-pay list
of captains. He was a lieutenant of 1810, and corra-
-1 mender of 1825. This gallant officer had a medal
with five claps. He was midshipman of the Prince
of \Vales at vopenhagen in 1807 ; of the Implacable,
at the capture of the Sewolod, and was in her boats
at the capture of a Russian flotilla in the Gulf of Fin-
land, in 1809 ; was a lieutenant in gun-boats at the
defence of Riga in 1812; commanded a division of
boats at the capture of Hamden and Bangor, in
America, and was at the attack on the American pri-
vateer Prince of Neufchatel ; was lieutepaut of the
Eodymion at the capture of the United States' fri-
ga.e President, and of the Impregnable, 104, fl
ig-
ship of Sir David Milne, at Algiers. If the case of
Sir G. Westphal, who was promoted to the rank of
captain in 1819, is a bard one, what shall be said of
the case of the late Captain Ormond, who, although
only'four years junior to Sir George as a lieutenant,
wog pot promoted, notwithstanding his gallant ser-
vice 4 to the rank of commander until twelve years
after, and to the rank of captain until 32 years after
the gallant knight, and then, like Sir George, to the
reserved half-pay list 1 With this difference, how-
ever—that the one is a rear-admiral on the " reserved
half-pay list," whilst the other was only a captain.
Commander Robert Rochfort (1828) died at Ply-
mouth, on the 11t.0 instant. -4:Ale. we,* mate of the
Calcutta when captured 'by th 4 Rochfort squadron,i
in 1805. He was made .a lieutenant in 1811, and
had been placed on the reserved half-pay list.
We are glad to find that Lieutenant-Colonel

turn to his duties.

troop-ship, screw propelled, Master-Commander Penn,

dispatch, if we may judge from the fact of hands
being employed about her yesterday. She is having
