COWES, ISLE 19F WIGHT.

ROYAL YACtIT SQUADRON INTELLIGENQE.—The build-
ings at Cowes Castle to adapt it for a clubhouse for the
Royal Yacht. Squadron are proceeding most satisfactorily.
The present fine weather has very much favoured the
work, and, from the great strength of men set on the
work, there is great probability of the buildings, though
so massive and extensive, being finished in the time
agreed on.
PUBLIC RIGHTS.— A great sensation has been created
in Cowes by a notice from the Royal Yacht Squadron to
the imal Board of Health of their intention of closing the
roads at the front and at the back of the Castle one day
at least in every year, and at their having erected two
stone piers, one on each side of the upper road, to fix
chains on, and thus exclude the public. As these roads
are the only ones leading from the town to the 1 3at hs,
the public esplanade, and to several a Di?leemotges in
