THE RACE BETWEEN THE VISION AND
oracle.

The Gracie's Experiences-Five OF Her
Sailors Overheard and Her Sails in
Tatters.
The following report was made by gentleman
on the Oracle during the race between that yacht
and the Vision on Friday last, from the stakeboat
In the Narrows to the Southwest Spit buoy; thence
back to the buoy on Craven shoals; thence to the
Southwest Spit buoy again; thence home to the
stakeboat in the Narrows, and in which contest
the Vision won the Commodore's Challenge Cup for
slOOps:-
The Oracle crossed the line first, twenty-four
seconds ahead OF the Vision, under clOse-reeied
mansail and bonnet or the jib. About fifteen min
utes alter starting she set her flying jib and was
apparently increasing the distance between her
sell and the Vision. About ten minutes after the
flying jib wasset the tack rope parted and the sail
was hauled Gown new TACK Dent ana tne no reset;
the clew tore out of the canvas and the sail was
rendered useless. The Oracle rounded the South
the Vision but while endeavoring to trim
the main sheet, with six men hauling, one
OF them lost his balance and fell overheard,
carrying with him four others, and the five men
were for a few minutes struggling in the water. BY
the time they were rescued and the sails trimmed,
and the yacht put upon her course, six or seven
minutes had been lost. She was then kept well to
wlndward, close along the West Bank towards the
buoy on Craven ShoaL When Off the hospital she
was long distance to windward of the Vision, and
would in all probability have turned Craven's Reef
buoy ahead The buoy had been described to Mr..
COgdJe. WIle Ou tHe Judges DOat DelOre Lue StarJ,
as being painted in white and black stripes, and
there being such buoy to leeward OF
the Craven Shoal buoy and, seeing the Vision
heading for it, the Gracess crew supposed 1t must
be the right one and kept her OF, thereby losing
the great advantage Of her windward position.
The wind at this time had considerable lightened,
and many Of the third reef points Of the mainsail
having started one reefwas haken out; but
was there strain on 1t than long rent was torn
In up to the forward leach, which constantly in
creased The Craven's Reef buoy was rounded
min. 40 sec: behind the Vision. Soon afterwards
the points of the second reef began to tear out
and the difficulty increased during the entire run
to the Southwest Spit buoy. About half way to the
Spit the Outrigger to W hich the jibsheets were
trimmed gave way, and the jerk parted the sheets.
Before new sheets could be rove the Vision had
greatly increased her lead. The wind had again
freshened and it was blowing harder than at any
time during the day. Upon reaching the Southwest
Spit 1t was blowing so hard that 1t necessitated q
close reefed mainsail, but as the sail was tearing
badly, going free, II would not have stood i've
minutes on the wind. ana there was nothing left
anchor for the night, which she did.

THE Petersburg Inden awards to Mr..
Plat, the Representative from that District,
the credit of doing a clever thing when he
introduced in the House of Representatives
a resolution to exempt all persons who
were under thirteen years Of age on the
1st of April, 1865, from the provisions of
an act prohibiting payment by an officer of
the government to any person not known
to have been opposed to the rebellion but
it does this with such stinted praise, and so
much personal rancor against the party
with which Mr.. Platt is identified, that the
force of its commentator is entirely
broken, if it is not more than neutralized
by its superserviceable venom. Is not our
contemporary little more troubled with
bile and indigestion than any patriotic sense
of wrong in the matter of its complaint ?
| What hair Of its head has been in
jured by the Federal government for all
the secession outrages it committed
against the "old fag'' and the con-
stitutonal government which had 6
right to command respect for and obedi
ence under it? What tyrannieal decree
has suppressed its issues, or interfered witt
its right to cxpend all the bile it wishes
against the Administration, since the mill
tary power it invoked has been superseded
by civil government? How many mel
have been marched out and shot down
after the fashion Of the French Republic
for their participation in the rebellion
Give us list of the horrid atrocities Of tn
Radical party in not appointing overy seces
sionist to some fat and lucrative office tn
moment he reluctantly laid down hi
arms against the Federal government
For if this neglect to recognize secsssio
merit was not atrocious, in Heaven
name what has been? The Inder ca
scold like very srab, but it wants tn
sagacity to see that the only virtue there
in the world does not entirely belong
itself, nor to the party with which it acts
Others may BIO guilty of the "dodge {
: loyalty" but the I'saer would make gret
: virtue out Of a worse dodge still-that
I disloyalty.
