ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON INTELLIGENCE.; -
OCT. I.—The match between the Corsair, 01
84 tons, and Talisman, of 87 tons, for 1,0001.. was
decided this morning in favour of the Corsair'
She passed the starting vessel at nine minutes
past seven ; the Talisman, closely following herb'
passed at thirteen minutes past seven, being 1-1'
tour minutes difference in nearly forty hours'
sailing, in a gale of wind, a distance exceeding
.300 miles. They started at twenty minutes before
four on Thursday afternoon both vessels under
storm trysail, small jib, anti reefed square sail,
the Corsair taking the lead, and keeping it t°
the Start point; ht this period the vessels were
placed in most difficult situations. The Talismaul
in the height of the gale, running, the Corsair,
came up close astern of her, the waves running
so high that the men on board the Corsair were
fearful the Talisman would run them down,. as
she came up on the top of the sea, they IYII
in the hollow. They all rushed astern,
bailed her to alter her course, which she did'
Had they come in contact, 'tis more than PI
bable both would have sunk and every s°"
perished, there being no sail in sight. The Cot'
sairjibbi ng carried away the jaws oilier gaff, whenhe
the Talisman passed, and kept the lead to t
Eddystone, which she passed at three A.M. °ll
Friday ; in that time having gained nearly cleVe°
minutes on the Corsair. Both rounded the EdtlYi-
stone under reefed trysail, reefed foresail,
storm jib. At five A.M. the two vessels were -
close to each other. The weather moderating
about nine o'clock, both vessels set larger Jibs'
and the Corsair a mizen ; the Talisman alwaYs,
increasine, sail first, being the most powerful
vessel, all the pilots of the Corsair being fearful
of their mast, which was a weak stick. After
rounding the Start point the Corsair took th,
lead; the Talisman then down with her try#"
and set her mainsail with two reels in it, an
soon after passed the Corsair. The Corsair tbell
set her mainsail similarly reefed; the
.Talisto"
put out a larger jib, and kept the lead till off
Sidmouth, when the Corsair
went under the
Talisman's stern and spoke ber(about seven
At twelve o'clock they rounded Portland, bot
vessels together; at three A.m. on Saturday the::
Corsair was half a mile dead in the wind ahead
of the Talisman, and eventually lost sight of her.'
;
The Corsair tacked to the northward, took in a
reef in the mahisail. Five A.M. saw the Talisnia.in•
half a mile to leeward, under a press of sail,
which compelled the Corsair to shake the reels
out, in doing which she carried away the boon
oaring, which brought the Talisman close 'IP
aside her lee. The damage being repaired, the
whole sail was set, when she went ahead again,
and beat by four minutes. The Talisman 1117
sailed by Captain John Long, assisted by Robertcll
Newman, John Denton, Mathew Fletcher, "
J. Willis, and twenty seamen. Mr. Jos. White'
the builder, was also on board. The Corsair was
sailed by Captain Daniel Brown, assisted
Daniel and Edward Corke (the well-known 0144 hi
of the Water Witch in her match round .the
Eddystone with the Galatea), and twenty-tr'..."'
men. This match is an extraordinary one, fro '
the vessels sailing for so large a sum under UT
smallest sails they could set, the gale raging wit",
such violence. The Corsair had the assistance 01
a Tnizen when the Talisman shifted her jeilr
which were at all times larger than the Corsall 9'

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

INSOLVEN T COURT-(THIS DAY.)

IN RE JOHN BROWN.

The, insolvent was a licensed victualler; he was
also described as a dealer in sporting dogs. In his
schedule were several statements descriptive of entries
in what he called his " dog book," with respect to
Profit and loss upon sales, and betting upon his canine
favourites.

Ilia petition to be discharged was opposed by Mr.
Cooke, on behalf of Messrs. Richmond, the brewers,
on the ground of an unfaithful statement of accounts.
The Learned COMMISSIONER ordered the case to
stand adjourned, as the statements in the schedule
were at variance with the evidence ; ordering at the
same time the production of the "dog book."
