ROYAL THAMES YACHT CLUB.
Yesterday the Royal Thames Yacht Club held their
first annual watch, the prizes being 100 sovereigns for
the first class of yachts, 50 sovereigns for the second,
and 30 sovereigns for the third. At nine o'clock, an
hour earlier than usual, the City of Canterbury steamer,
chartered for the occasion, started from London-bridge,
having on board Lord Alfred Paget, commodore of the
club, tho members, and a large party of friends. The
band of the •• Blues," undaunted by its equestrian habits,
a?companied the expedition and enlivened the amuse-
nts of the day. The visitors had all turned out ifs
smart semi-nautical attire, and as the wind blew freshly
and the sun shone and the sky smiled propitiously there
were cheering anticipations of an agreeable aquatic ex-
cursion. At Erith, us usual, the yachts entered for the
race were found drawn up in due order, and the signal
being given, up went their snow-white canvas with the
speed of lightning, and away they glided on their course
down the river. What yacht took the lead, and what
the various shifts and changes of the match ss ere, it
would be vain to tell. The uprer reaches of the river
afford no fair opportunities for testing the sailing qua-
lities of such crafr, and the real merits of each are only
tested when they get beyond Gravesend, and aro out of
reach of the reaches.

The yachts that first rounded the Nero were the Mos-
quito, the Cynthia, and the Cygnet. The commodore
did not, according to his usual custom, sail to the Nore
lihtht,use, and there gratify the company by allowing
film to see each vessel wheel round the turning-point on
its way back. lie was contented with announcing from
a considerable distance the order in which they re-
turned, and thus one of the finest effects of the march
was lost. The sail up the river presented no remarkable
difference from that down—the brer 71 sometirre3
freshening and sometimes falling away, but never en-
tirely disappearing. The order in which the yachts
arrived at Erith, and the time, aro as follows:

The yachts being run in three classes, of 30 tons and
upwards, of 15 tons and upwards to 30, and under 15
tons, the prizes were distributed accordingly, half a
minute time per ton being allowed for difference of ton-
nage in each class.
While the little squadron of yachts was bounding on
its way yesterday towards the buoy at the Nore, a
mutiny, not perhaps of so formidable a character as that
of which everybody has beard, but still sufficiently
alarming to ruffle the tempers of many ladies and to call
forth the indignant invectives from gentlemen, broke
forth in the commodore's steamer. Even the archiepis-
copal uaire of the vessel failed to restrain the vehement
wrath and disappointment of thu company. Trusting at
least to lobster salads arid other marine delicacies for
support during the voyage, they found themselves dis-
appointed. In the midst of plenty they endured the
pangs cf want. Like so many cast-away sailors, they
saw all kinds of fish and fowl in abundance around them
of which they could not partake, and it is only wone.er-
ful that in the midst of their sufferings some waiter
was not sacrificed, like Pedrillo, to the exigences of the
occasion. The club had neglected to restrict the
number of visitors to the cabin at nay particular
moment. Soma mischievous person spread the
report that there was a scarcity of provisions.
The panic spread. Everybody rushed below demanding
lobster-salads and pigeon pies. The steward, taking a
leaf out of the book of the prudent bankers, paid off his
eustamers in huge joints of cold roast and boiled beef
served in a very dilatory manner. The cabin was the
scene of the greatest confusion, anger, and dismay ;
vial-fuls of wrath were poured out fret-1y on the hearts
of the unhappy waiters ; piles of dirty plates were lying
about on every side, and the remains of lobsters, the
bones of fowl=, the empty-pie-dishes, the strange array
of filthy glasses and tumblers—all reminded one more of
a harpy feast or bacchanalian orgie than an English en-
tertainment. Salt water air may have a strong effect
upon the appetite, but surely the Thames Yacht Club
might take too trouble of laying down a few simple re-
