The YACHT RAoE.-Tbe harbor was again
enlivened yesterday afternoon by an interesting
race between two Of the fastest yachts owned In
this city. The Meta and Black Crook concluded
to try 1t over, and the course Of the race was
down the harbor to and around the Cummings
Point buoy, and back to the starting point. The
boats started from Southern wharf about half
past s, with stiff breeze blowing from the south
west Under heavy spread Of canvas, they
sped gwiftly down the harbor and down to the
buoy. The contest was sharp and exciting.
Upon rounding the buoy, the wind blew so fresh
that the Meta labored heavily in the sea under
her cloud Of sail, and just beyond Fort Sumter
filled 30 rapidly with water, that she was COM
PEELED to lower away her mainsau. The Black
Crook stood It better, and reached the goal far
ahead Of her competitor. The Meta came in
under her jlb, and gave up the race as soon as
she was compelled to take In her mainsail. The
boats are exceedingly well matched, and in
lighter breeze the Black Crook would have not
had 1t all her own way.

Resolred, That this Convention, representing

duty to declare, that the so-called sterling loan,

1t may be reasonably objected to these sug-
gestions, that the present market price of the
bonds is only 65 per cent, while the calcula-
tons made proceed on the basis of s0per cent.
for the bonds. But it is quite reasonable to
expect that upon this exhibition of the exact
condition of the debt of the State, and upon the
concurrence of his Excelency the Governor,
in the general course of arrangement herein re-,
commended, there will be an immediate and
considerable advance in the market value of the
bonds and greatly increased facilities for hold
ing them off the market
Referring now once more to the sum of the

Thus raising the interest on the funded debt
that year TO about Il per cent, instead of 6
per cent, and adding SS4, 1862 to the expenses
of the State. The face of the bonds. it is true,
rose to so per cent and upwards; but the State
derived no benefit from the expense she had
incurred to produce the advance. Only one
million was sold, and those at 10 per cent.
In reviewing the financial condition of the
State, it was impossible to fail of being gravely
impressed by the enormous expense OF the pres
ent day as compared with the past Your CON-
mittee earnestly appealed to his Excellency
Governor Scott to use all his power to enforce
retrenchment in every department. 1t was i'm
possible for your committee. in the short time
allotted to their arduous task, to examine into
the various accounts that exhibit these eXpen-
ditures, and to suggest in what particulars they
may be curtailed.
They procured from the Treasurer, in COM
pendium form and attach to this report accounts
b and E, showing the receipts and disburse-
ments of the Treasury for the years 1869 and
1870. They commend these interesting docu-
ments to the careful examination and earnest
consideration of the Taxpayers and of the Leg
islature. They believe that all necessary re.
trenchment of expenses may be effected, and
that it is the shortest and best avenue to escape
from the financial difficulties we suffer, and the
surest means of restoring quiet and confidence
among the people of the State. Less than
S66O,0O will pay the interest in gold on the
funded debt. and S1,200,000 of revenue should
abundantly suffice to defray the interest and all
other expenses.
The committee believe that by q vigorous
and persistent economy our expenses may. be
reduced to this sum, and the taxes proportion
ately abated.
