THE RACE FOR THE EMPEROR'S CUP.

The closing match of the week took place to-day by the
ran for the cup presented to the squadron by the Emperor
of the French, the course In which was, as has already been
stated, from the Isle of Wight to Cherbourg. The sailing
committee drew up the following regulations in order to
ensure as little misunderstanding as possible among the
yachts, as it was anticipated that much difficulty would be
alt by whoever undertook the reeponslble and arduous post
of getting them away :
" Competing vessels to be at St. Helen's by five o'clock a.m.
on Friday morning. To start under weigh, forming line of
bearing in the direction to be indicated by the umpire ; the
umpire to bare the discretionary power of irnpo3ing a fine
of a certain number of minutes on any plebe starting
beyond the line. The umpire to be appointed by the
selling committee on the day previous to the start.
The EugrAle (Mr. Frankland's schooner), or, if the French

breakwater. She will he distinguished by the flags of Eng-

of canvas; and in ro case will the time eflowed exceed one

bonr."
Mr. Gee, the owner of the Chenpeak3 steam-yacht,
kindly placed his vessel at the service of the railway com-
mittee, and our reporter was courteously offered a P3SSage
to the starting place. Mr. De Homy, who bad consented
to undcr•ake the office of empire and starter, came on board
about midnight, and at three o'clock the vessel steamed
away towards the eastward. The yachts were found lying
at shoat sea view, off' the island, and as soon as the sun rose
each rem', was boarded by Mr. De Horsey, and instruc-
