elected by the managers, and that the conviction was
good; and, in " Miller's case," 2 Mood., C. C., 249.
the prisoner, a clerk of a friendly society, was held to
be the clerk or servant of the trustees within the Act.
So also in " llill's case," 1 Mood, C. C., 474, a member
and secretary of a society was held properly described as
the clerk and s?rvaut of the trustees. As to the prin-
ciple of not allowing a civil remedy before a prosecution
for the felony, and in what cases it is applicable,
I refer to the cases of " Crosby v. Leng," 12 East, 409;
" Stone e. Marsh," 6 B. and Cr.; " Ex parte Bolland, re
Marsh," Mont. and Mac., 307; and "Ex parte Jones," 2
M. and A., 193; and in cunsidering whether the defi-
ciency of money which ought to be forthcoming amounts
to embezzlement by the bankrupt, within the 7th and
Bth George IV., chap. 29, sec. 47, the following cases
may be important:—" Rex v. Hall." R. and R., 463:
" Rex v. Hall," 1 Mood. C. C., 474; " Rex v. Grove,"
1 Mood. C. C., 447; " Reg. v. White," 2 Mood. C. C.,

ROYAL THAMES YACHT CLUB.
Yesterday the annual match took place for the Grand
Challenge Cup, a very handsome piece of plate, and well
worthy of the competition which it was intended to ex-
cite. The race is open to all the Royal Yacht Clubs, and the
boats entered for it on the present occasion were four in
number - the Cynthia and Musquito, from the port of Lon-
don, the owners being Mr. Wicks and Lord Londesborough ;
the Cygnet, from Southampton, and belonging to Mr. H.
Lambton ; the Diana, from Portsmouth, being the property
of Mr. J. L. Craigie. To those who are at all conversant
with the subject it is unnecessary to say anything as to the
first-class character of these yachts; and when, in addition,
it is mentioned that the wind blew freshly all day, and that
everything turned out favourably for the match, it will rea-
dily be understood that the progress down the river in the
Commodore's steamer, the Ruby, proved to the members of
the club, and their friends on board, a most agreeable ex-
cursion. "It never rains but it pours" is an old adage, but,
if "misfortunes never come singly," it sometimes happens
that good luck is also cumulative. Yesterday it was so
with the Thames Yacht Club, for not only were the boats
entered for the race distinguished for their speed—not only
did the wind condescend to blow with the exact strength
suited to the occasion—but the Nepaulese Ambassador and
his suite honoured the club with their presence, and the
commissariat department of the Commodore's steamer
was put upon a more satisfactory footing than has
been the case for some time. With all these " appliances
and means to boot," the race went off most brilliantly.
The Ruby started from London-bridge at 9 o'clock, with
a large party of ladies and gentlemen, who were
shortly afterwards joined by the Nepaulese Minister
and his suite. They came on board from the Childe Harold,
which they appeared to have chartered for the occasion, and
having been cordially welcomed by Lord Alfred Paget, sta-
tioned themselves upon the larboard paddle-box. From
this elevated position they witnessed the " start," which
took place at Erith, about half-past eleven o'clock, and which
is always an extremely pretty sight. They remained on
board till the little fleet of yachts, heeling over to the fresh-
ening breeze, was below Greenhithe. The run down the
river, with the tide and wind both favourable, was per-
formed with great rapidity, the ➢Susquito taking the lead,
though at one moment the Diana appeared likely to pass
her. At length the buoy at the Nore was rounded by the
little fleet in the following order :

h. m. s.
Mosquito ... 2 2 30
Diana ... 2 5 30
Cynthia ... ... 2 6 16
Cygnet ... ... 214 15
It is seldom that of late years the club matches have ex-
tended so far down the river. When they have, the race has
always been interesting, and the rounding at the Nore has
been the climax of it. Within fair sight of the open sea, and
feeling its influences, the aquatic achievements of the club
assume a more dignified character, and every soul on board
the Ruby yesterday returned to town as proud as if he had
doubled Cape Horn. To add to the interest of the occasion,
the Howe, 120 gun ship, was lying at the Sore, and manned
her yards in compliment to the salute of the Ruby, which
steamed round her.

The sail up the river was expected to produce some change
in the fortunes of; he race, as at the time of rounding it still
wanted an hour of low water. The Musquito, however,
held her way successfully. She was admirably handled by
Mr. Stephen Ancon, her captain, and Lord Alfred Paget's
old crew. The Diana was passed by the Cynthia, and
shortly afterwards ran aground. The Cygnet diminished
the distance between her and the Cynthia, and the order in
which the winning-post at Erith was reached was as fol
lows :

h. m.
11f usquito... ..•
••
Cynthia ... ••• ••• 11. 66
35
Cygnet ••• ••• ••• ... 6 55
Thus it will be seen that the Musquito was the winner of
be match, and accordingly the Challenge Cup was awarded
_o Lord Lond. esborough, her owner, to bold until next year,
when, if he is again successful, it becomes his own.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
Porrrsmount, FRlDAY.—Admiral Sir Bladen Capel re-
turned to Portsmouth, from short leave of absence on Thurs-
day evening, when his flag
Victory. was rehoisted on board the
Thursday being the anniversary of the signing of the de-
claration of the American independence (the 4th July), Ithe
American packet-ship the Devonshire, at Spithead, was
dressed out in her national colours and other flags, and in
the afternoon fired a salute of 27 guns (one for every state)
in honour of the day.
The Furious steamer, of 1,286 tons, now building at Ports-
mouth, will be launched the first spring tides in August.
Admiral Berkeley and Sir B. W. Walker inspected her on
Monday last, examining her coal-bunkers, &c. So soon as
the Furious is launched the Marlborough, 120, will be laid
down on her vacant slip, and she is ordered to be built with
all dispatch. The Prince of Wales, 120, and the Royal Sove-
reign, 120, under the same sheds, have progressed most expe-
diti,,usly, and if they were required for service might soon be
launched. A number of shipwrights are now employed on
both these vessels.

A butt, the section of an iron steam-frigate, is now being
got ready, and will be lined with wood to try whether the
wood work may prevent the excessive splintering of the
iron-work ; it will be t ested by Captain Chads of the Excel-
lent, shortly. The iron sides of the Simoom are lined with
from 211 to 3 inch plank, from the upper covering to the
keelson—this wood lining might stop some of the iron
splinters from the side plates and ribs—but her beams and
shelf-pieces are not lined with wood, and on a shot striking
these, a terrible slaughter would probably be made on her
crew. While speaking of the iron beams, we observe that
no screw hooks have been made for hanging up the ham-
mocks of her crew, which should have been done before the
beams were fixed, as it will take some work to drill holes
now the decks are planked and everything fixed.
The Termagant steam-frigate, is having her main chan-
nels taken out to be shifted with her mast sever. feet
further forward. Her rigging, which was placed on board
