The Great Aquatic Race-Grcnt Britain
against America and America against the
| World.
Yesterday, we announced in the Herald, the
Battery was crowded 10 witness the departure of
| the Great Western and the exhibition OF the sailing
qualities OF the Princeton. The old fort al Castle
Garden was peopled by an anxious throng, and Fa
| Their Webb, in the excitement OF the moment, forgot
his crutch and walked with the firm step of youth
| tuness. The Princeton came up The Bay about
noon, and after gracefully plying on those waters,
like duck on a horse pond, she proceeded up the
North river, and there remained until the time for
the departure of the Great Western had arrived.
| About hall pas, 2 O'Clock the Great Western came
out ofthe East River in her usual fine STYLE and the
wind being at N. W., she set her "fore, main, and
mizen trysails, and jb" The Princeton lay of
about mile above the North Carolina "a, and see
ing the Western coming she came down beautifully
and rapidly, with superb white foam at her bow,
but not ripple at her sides or stern. The dense
masses on the Battery cheered her as she passed
close under the I" old Norh's" stern. When both
ships had gained the outward channel the Western
was about SIX lengths ahead with the same sail as
before, and blowing steam, showing her mettle was
up for the contest. The Princeton with her sails all
fured and without any smoke pipe, presented
beautiful contrast 10 the Western, so long favorte
with the people; but now It was clear her glory had
departed. AT 40 minutes past they were fairly
of and half mile from the Battery, proceeding on
together without any seeming difference Of speed, to
the quarantine, when the Princeton had so closed
with her that she was nearly aboom; about half
mile below she was aboom, when she let fall her
fore topsall and shot pas, and ahead in one minute
The Princeton entered the uarrows with lore
and main topsails, b and fore sail set, and
when she disappeared behind the point of
Long Island, at twenty minutes past three,
she was eight miles from the Battery
and half mile ahead of the Western. AS seen
from the Battery, the Princeton was dropping be-
hind the eastern Bluff as the Western cleared the
western Bluff of the Narrows.
This certainly wasa SPLENDID trial 70. the Prince
