The annual election for officers OF the association
took place the evening OF the 2Sth ult.. and the
gratifying character Of the attendance and the en-
thusiasm manifested In the furtherance OF business
for the interest Of the club were Of the kndliest
nature. IL was developed at this yearly reunion
that the old spirit OF being second to no other
club in the country exists in the hearts OF its mem

nary preparations for the ensuing season should at

new club house Although the present one Is quite
their great growth they must either enlarge the one
now occupied or build another The latter has been
decided upon, and already negotiations are in pro-
gress. They VIII probably be compelled ultimately
to leave their present location and select site
down nearer to the sea, on the Long Island shore,
near the Narrows. The next matter Of promise
evincng the right kind O: spirit Is that OF building
q club yacht schooner to be OF approved model anu

citation. This yacht. II constructed, will be under
the direction OF the Commodore.
The rooms of the club, on Court street, near the
City Hail. centrally located and pleasantly furnished,
are the scene OF many reunions, where the members
resort to talk 'yacht" suggest improvements and
are models of various gallant boats that have won
some fame, and not few little souvenirs OF worth
and artistic taste.

This club was organized In September, 1855, and
ID next to the oldest organization Of the KIND in the
country. 1t has always maintained leading posi-
ton as an aquatic association. and its members in
dividually have been noted for the zeal and spirit
with which they have entered into all the sports and
pastlmes OF yachting. The headquarters Of the club
are located at the Eysian Fields, Hoboken. where
It's neat and substantial club house is situated.
The growth Of the club has been very much i'm
peded for tue last few years by the increasing de-
mands OF commerce, which has been gradually
DESTROYING its anchorage grounds which are situated
directly In front OF the club house.
Alive to the necessity or providing its members
with all the accommodation possible to further their
favorite sport the society determined to purchase
place which would embrace all the advantages that
could be Obtained both upon land and water for an
organization Of the kind, and in carrying out this
design 1t has followed the example OF the parent
chased property situated ct Wards Point, Staten
Island, opposite Perth Am6oy n J: the
the Point, about four acres being uplana
and the remainder beach, which will be large
nearly all the yachts OF the different clubs in this
vicinity. The anchorage cannot be surpassed as there
ia an ample depth OF water and It Is protected on ali
sides from storms or gales The club is now building
house on this tract, which will be both Orna-
mental and substantial. 1t will be two stories IN
height with Mansard roof, surrounded with an
observatory from which the members and their
friends will be able to overlook the entire bay OF
New YORK and the surrounding country. The lower
story OF the house will be divided into meeting
room, dining room, sitting room and kitchen, with
be divided into large dOrmt0ry for such Of the
members as may wish to sleep on Shore q boat
swain and stewards room, locker room and rooms
for servants 1t Is expected that the house and all
the necessary improvements upon the grounds will
he completed during the month of June, when the
cub will be able to extend to its members accom-
mOdation which will not be equalled by any club
around New York.
The annual regatta OF the club will take place
some time during the month Of July, when, on this
OCCASION the day OF their grand reunion, they IN
tend to render 1t particularly interesting Dy dedi,
be from the anchorage of the club house, Wards

The Jersey City Yncht Club.

With the many large clubs devoted TO aquatic
pleasures In the vicinity Of the metropolis, and the
natural inclination for Its votares to seek the more
extensive and prosperous it can be held that this
lively association has been very successful Its mem
bers love the royal amusement Of yachting, ana IN
their many annual regattas, cruises, and matched
races since their organization IN the year 1858.
they have evinced the courage that makes
gales and rough seas, and this has made them
equally Tor nearly sol famous with their older
salt water brethren. The members this
year have agreed to make 1t season OF prominence
In progress that denote activity and pleasant sue
cess. The club have experienced one drawback-that
L. they were compelled to remove their house rom
outside OF the Central Railroad bridge because the
many improvements there were OF nature to limit
the Old outlet to the bay and &C last they concluded
to locate at the foot OF Henderson street. where the
club house now rests upon float; and being thor
oughly repaired and reprinted 1t presents hand
the reputation OF the association, but also to the
adOrnment Of that section OF the city.
The annual meeting OF the club was held on the
4th Of March last and iC was marked Will the same
expression OF enthusiasm that has ever been the
spirit OF these gallant aquatic sports. AT that hmo
Messrs. Ward, Ketchum and Grain were appointed
