off to his Excellency's splendid yacht the Pearl, the band of the

fired :from the Tiger, as the note of preparation for sailing. Not
long after two guns were fired, the signal for slipping the moorings,
when the contending vessels stood to the southward, round a vessel
bearing a blue flag at her mast head, moored in that direction, and
leaving her oa the larboard hand. They then rounded another
stationary vessel, bearing a white Bag at her mast head, and moored
at the south buoy of the Dublin Bar. There was scarcely a breeze
at this time. and all animation seemed as if suspended.
The bay was studded with schooners, yachts, gigs, and yawls ;
lost it appeared to be a "dead heat " between them all, until near
401 s • clock, when thew sun bid his face " for a Ilttictime, and
"the air began to breathe " again. At this time the prize con-
tending vessels were fast making for the harbour. All eyes were
caw on the 100k-out, and anxious suspense hushed the spectators
into," sepulchral silence." The Liberty, Ruby, and Thetis passed
in between the Tiger and Royal Charlotte. The Liberty first, the
Ruby second. and the Thetis third. This constituted the first beat.
—Ae tbp weather was Co fine, a second heat was ordered by the
Stewards, when the vessels, without delay, rounded the Royal
Charlotte, and proceeded again in the saint line. About three
o'dock, after a beautiful race, the Liberty came in first a second
time, the Thoth second, and the Ruby third. The Medora and
Emerald Isle followed lenge thierecilio.
Three guns were then fired, as a signal that the race was ended.
Between the races foe the a Snood Prize Cnp" and the Sixth
Class Cup there was very amusing rowing match found the
bar-
boar. Five four-oared boats started, and kept pace for a few
minutes, when a private yacht came in collision, and threw three et
them back. The other two palled hard and lung, and came in so
closely together, that a controversy arose between the parties, which
we had not time to await the tetatination of.
