Tom THUMB HACHTING.-The new Yacht Charles
>. Stratton made her trial trip on Friday A reg
uar fleet of yachts and sailing vessels were waiting
in the harbor, each determined to give the new
craft test of their sailing qualities. At about
three O'Clock Mr.. G. S. Stratton-more Familiarity
known as General Tom Thumb'-stepped on board
his new yacht, accompanied by half dozen friends,
and gave orders to sail for Black Rock Lighthouse
This was the signal for the entire feet and within
three minutes dozen sails were spread from as
many teet little clippers and the race commenced
The Stratton soon took the lead, and the space be-
tween her and her tenders widened every moment.
When she reached her destination half of those who
started with her had ''wheeled about and COM
menced return voyage, while the last yacht in the
crowd was full half mile in the rear. On the re-
turn. home the C.. S. Stratton disanced every COM
petitor. All who witnessed the race concur in ac-
knowledgng that this is by far the finest and fast
est sailing craft that has been in our waters for
many day, The builder, Edmund T. Darling,
Esq, Of Port Jefferson, l.. l., accompanied the
yacht on this her first trip. On his return he was
greeted by the cheers of all judges of fast sailing
He has already established the reputation of being
one Of the best yacht builders in this country.

THE VOYAGE OF THE GREAT EASTERN.
From the Gdl,cay Vindicator, Aug 2Ol
Galway has yet hope of seeing the Great East
ern in the waters of the bay. The Midland Com
pany have just resolved on giving the of f5 900
in addition to the f20 900 offered by Mr. Lever
That gentleman left Dublin last evening for Lon
don, with view to increase his offer. The condi-
tons are, that the vessel is to lie in our bav for f
teen days before sailing for Quebec. 1t is cacula,
ted that thirty thousand people would visit Galway
to see the stupendous boat during that time.
From the same paper, same day.l
a proposal has been made on behalf of Mr.. Lever
NJ P, to charter the Great Eastern steamship for
voyage out and home, viz: from safe port in Great
Britain to some safe port in North America The
terms offered 10000 the vessel to be provided
with accommodation for 1000 passengers and to
steam fourteen knots an hour on her trial trip.
A later account says:-'It is stated that the
Great Ship Company have declined Mr.. Levers Of
fer to charter the Great Eastern. That vessel will
make her trial trip from Portland, Dorset, on the
8th September, and will leave that harbor again on
the 18th, for Portland, United States"
The Great Eastern steamship is advertised to start
on the 18th of September, direct voyage to the
United States. Portland, Maine, will be the har-
Dor to which she will proceed on the occasion Pas
sengers will be carried at rates ranging from els
to f25.
From the Dublin Evening Nail, August 1871
The Great Eastern being all ready, what will be
done with her, where she will get cargoes, are
questions which must be rather perplexing to the
directors. Australia and India won't do: New
York would be the best port to get the full of her.
but Nature says no, in the depth of water at the
Narrows below the Empire City. Quebec, then,
with the Grand Trunk Railway and its connections
through the States, Canada, and with the st.
Lawrence navigable for vessels of 300 tons to Chi
cago, 1600 miles in the Interior is the only port in
the world where she can get loaded
On this side there are three rivals for this golden
apple-Milford Haven, Holyhead and Queenstown.
As to passenger line, the odds are decidedly in
favor of the Irish port, and the Channel risks and
danger from fogs being avoided, and the ship on
her way rejoicing clear of all land in one hour,
most as cheap by steam as by rail to Milford or
Holyhead. Instead of the men of the "Beautiful
City" envying Galway, let them pull together to
have Queenstown the port, as it ought to be, Uf
Dublin and st. Louis, across the Mississippi, in
eight,

A PROPER VERDICT IN LIBEL Subtitle Lao
Of Libel-The publishers of the Pittsburg Dispatch
and of the Post have been indicted in Allegheny
for libel, in publishing the opening speech of a
counsel in the Orphans Court, in a case relative to
the administration of an estate, in which some very
severe remarks rejecting upon the character OF
one of the parties, were made. The defendants
pleaded their rights, as publishers, to publish the
proceedings in the public courts, and claimed that
they had doneso fairly The charge of the judge was
strongly against the defense. The jury, however
returned verdict of not guilty.
