COWES REGATTA.
(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
ACCIDENT TO THE AMERICAN YACHT.

COWES, Ana. 27.—The sailing and rowing matches
in honour of Prince Albert's birth-day were carried
out very spiritedly. The first three vessels Were
started at half-past ten, and being well matched the
thing was very closely contested, Davis winning by
about a length. The second and thiri match were
equally interesting, but the rain damped the spiriits
of the company with which the shore was crowded'
fortunately it had no effect on the committee. Blessrs.
J. Corke and J. Mew seemed proof against the wee.
ther. The most interesting rowing match was he'
tween a mahogany boat built by the coachmakerf:l
against an iron one built by the tinkers; both ba
been rowed in several matches with varied success;
they had now two picked crews, and after a desperate
i
struggle the mahogany beat the iron, winning 20
Next came the ladies, and as they were from differs!"
ports, and had never rowed together before, their
abilities were first tried from the Royal Yacht scor
dron House, by Lord Godolphin's and the MeV?
of Anglesey's. At the first attempt Miss Hunt made
her oar miss the water and over she went, and for
moment her feet and Turkish trousers alone could be
seen above the gunwale. Some thought this a bad
beginning, others that it was done only to sbnly
the Americans that she had adopted the Bloomer
costume, for the next moment she was pulling awl
in a style which showed her proficiency in the art'
Duck hunts and pig catchings followed. In apite-;
the rain the sport went on, and so attractive wagl
that the yachts crowded up so closely that the
steamers could only, after much time and trouble:
thread a passage through them. Lord Fitxhardinge:
yacht, in attempting to get into harbour, cone;
away the Spider's (Mr. Thornhill's) bowsprit all
ran aground. The America was hauled in so close
that she took the ground and lost her false keel.
There were fireworks in the evening on shore, an
on board the Victoria and Albert.

The America was taken to Portsmouth, and is nole.
in the South Dock under repair. The Titania went
out of harbour this afternoon, to be ready for the
match with the America to-morrow.

THE AMERICA IN DOCK AT PORTSMOUTII.--1138
America was taken into the south dock yesterday
afternoon, having while at anchor off Cowes strticsei
her keel against an anchor, by which she receivet
some slight damage. From the number of eininerid
builders, yachtsmen, and naval officers resent 'it would
appear that there is "something new under the BUD:,
Thousands of persons had visited her to some dettrhie
meat of her decks, paint work, and gilding, for
weather was rainy, and her people will have e°elet
trouble to get her clean again. Her bottom is a
extraordinary one. We have never seen anything I,l'
it. Instead of the up and down perpendicular gr'ke,,
that our yachts have, the America has a narrow, rht
ceding stem, without gripe; her lines appear stralger
from the stern to about the mainmast, and thenl3,„,.
bottom has a succession of curves ; she has about Is'',
feet keel and false keel deepening abaft, and her gel;
post is up and down ; her midship section appesrso
be something like that of a Symondite, but she
no hollow lines. Her general draft of water is,"
believe, about six feet forward and eleven feet aft
t.
sharp as a wedge forward, with a very clear run 5i 0
About ber midship section she springs up quickl9,7,
first from the keel, and comes out round near
waterline like a skimming dish. The great nirte„rj
appears to be how she is so stiff, and how she en;
trives to sail on nearly an even keel. She bast
said, about sixty tons of iron ballast, which is hiel.:A
with the vessel, and stowed in her timbers and cove hr;
with the lining ; this gives her room below. She 1"-f
also stowed round her wings about 800 gallops
water. There is a good deal of symmetry about 1).%
and her cabin conveniences inside are equal to Engitishe
yachts of a corresponding tonnage ; but it is 6:01
expense of' the quarters for the men. She will ofu.
our builders something to study, and perhaps e'noro,
vince them also that they have still something to leo`

THE GREAT HIRE AT MILE-END NEW T°-_,-* the
Within a few minutes after the fire was first perceive., 'go
Brigade engines from Jeffrey-square and Wellclose-sqoo..
were proceeding at a rapid pace towards the scene of c0n..000
gration, when oil getting into Spitalfields, the two peode.„er
machines came into such violent collision with each t_?!64
that one of the engines was d,sabled. The ladder smani.
the legs of Mackey, the head engineer, who Iv-- was Beverly ins
jured, so much so that he was obliged to be removed tonthol
hospital. The shock was also so severe that a policetna, „if
the H division who was directing the firemen was dashed t
the engine and sustained several serious injuries, aln° the
which were a number of fractured ribs. Respecting
rtedj
origin of the fire nothing positive is known, but it is asse
that no fires had been used on the premises for several cl_s2l;
1
it therefore seems most extraordinary how the nliefclr
happened. The following is a copy of Mr. Braidwoo of
official report of the damage done :—" The mantifactofara.,
Messrs. Crossley, oil-refiners, in Pleasant-row, Pe1.,?,00
street, Mile-end New Town, burned down; countinVwd,
and offices partially destroyed, and cooperage seriouslYn_,o
maged by water.'' The premises were insured in the Lo,
;e.
Fire- office, and the contents in the Royal Exchange-0m
The flour warehouses of Mr. Dixon have also sustainedr:,
damage, the skylights being demolished and the r00f,1175,
jured. A wooden building belonging to Messrs. Ilanu,,o
and Truman, the brewers, has likewise received great danu'it,l
by fire and water. The total loss it is understood
amount to some thousands of pounds.
