length the husband noticed it, and he vowed the

A New English Yacht Club.

Gancing cursorily at the ever-growing English
taste for nautical sport, and especially for yachting
as illustrated by passing events 1t must be con-
cluded that the times Of the exquisite dandy, the
lounging and eiYemnate yachtsman, are passing
away, and the manly, hearty, Anglo-Saxon tone Of
real adventure and daring on the ocean wave has
become the order OF the day, rather than skim
over the Solent In sight OF the club house, All the
nautical constructive talent, science and skill OF
tine present day, as encouraged and utilized by the
best yacht clubs in the kingdom, are tending to-
wards one 0bject-viz., to build, rig, sail
and trim yacht, combining speed, beauty
and symmetry, with strength, capacity OF
stOwage,. cabin accommodation and sea-
going qualities, and to avoid the mere racing ma
chine as luDDery and non-nautica! intrusion.
Ocean yachting and ocean races are in fact, becom
ing both popular and useful. With this principle In
view, the "koyal Cinque Ports Yacht Cfub'' has
been formed at Dover, under the cOmm0dOreship
OF Prince Arthur, and with Mr.. Brassey M. p, O
practical yachtsman, as vice commodore. The club
numbers seventy-nve OF the finest and 1eetest
yachts and 100 members, and the inaugural sailing
programme would do honor to any OF the Oldest es.
tablshed and influential clubs. Dover as port OF
CALL with free harbOr, will undoubtedly be popular
with yachtsmen, 1t being the only yacht station
between tho Thames and the Isle OF Wight and as
base line port for cruising on Ostend, Calais and
Boulogne together with its easy accessto and from
London and Paris II will be found very convenient.
Dover ls not dull town, but Is OF all seaside towns
and bathing resorts perhaps in daily routine oil lie,
the most varied with stirring events, such as the
arrival and departure OF continental boats, en-
barcati0n and debarcati0n OF troops, and such mill
son town. The new yacht club now adds to Its at
fractions for the families Of yachtsmen during their
summer cruises. We wish the Royal Cinque Ports
Yacht Club continuation Of Its opening success.

Any moderately intelligent savage must look
with wonder upon the scene presented at the
supper table at our fashionable parties-the
rush, the scramble, the fierce fight for access to
the table; the curious spectacle presented of
dozens of male arms raised high in air above the
mob, bearing trophies of success yinous and
edible; the fierce jOstlings by which the elevated
glasses and plates-the champagne, chicken
salad, and terrapin-soup come down upon the
unlucky heads below; the screams of the women
whose dresses are ruined, the objurgations of
their attendant cavaliers,-all this is calculated
to strike the stranger to our Wanted modern
civiliZati with astonishment. In the scant
space allowable for dancing at our fashionable
parties the destruction to dresses and female tenn
per Is, also, nearly as great As in the supper room
So long as parties are given on so large a scale
II is net easy to see how the supper-table diff
Guilty can be remedied unless through some such
agency as Marini's proposed structure, contain
ing spacious ballroom, with fitting sumner
room, dressing rooms, saloons, &c. Doubtless
handsome, well-arranged building of this sort
would supply what is wantedb by those who give
parties on a large scale, saving the loss and
waste, the destruction OF dresses, carpets furni-
ture, &c, inseparable from these jams in pri-
waite houses. At any rate, an improvement in
this direction is needed, and we trust that Ma
rini or some one else will undertake it.
1t may be added that the best parties in New
York are now given at Delmonico's or some
other place having proper accommodations and
COnveniences.

The South, a journal published in New York,
and devoted to the material interests of the
southern states, argues that cotton has wrought
the financial ruin of that section; not the simple
growth of il, nor even the exaltation of it into
their chief article of production nor the invest
ment of million OF dollars and the expenditure
of much mental effort and physical energy in its
culture. Not in all these has lain the curse, but
rather in excessive, absorbing, and, therefore,
Tuinous devotion TO the growth of cotton, to the
relative exclusion of other important agricultu-
raj productions, which were necessary in order
to render her independent of foreign sources of
supply, TO the neglect of those mechanic arts
without which no state can realize the highest
advantages of a civilized condition, and to the
utter disregard of numberless other profitable
modes of investing capital and utilizing labor
