after the Presidential election They were both
brilliant journalists, and were intimately asso

OF Virginia and the South, both during and since
the war.
Edward A. Pollard was born in Nelson county, in
this State, and was In his fOrtylith year when he

YACHTING.

The Prospects or a Challenge from an
English Yacht Club.
The months OF November and December are in
general rather dun to those interested In yachting,
and any thing in the shape of news is generally
graspcd with avidity and becomes the general
topic OF conversation. The latest rumor that has
been waited across the ocean has relation to a
challenge which, it is minated, will be forwarded
by Commodore Thelluson, Of the schooner yacht
Guinevere, to the New York Yacht Club. 1t Will be
remembered that the Gunevere was the yacht
whose non-appearance at a regatta In which the
SapphO was expected to compete created so much
general discussion in yachting circles The action
OF Commodore ThellHsOH in withdrawing his yacht
was tnen rather severely commented on, many
people attrbutng his action to the white feather.
challenge from that gentleman to the New
York Yacht Club would, however, immediately put
his action on that occasion In q different light, as
1t would show he preferred waiting for q more
fitting opportunity to test the speed OF English
and American yachts, and perhaps thought that
q victory in American waters would be even more
glorious than when achieved on his own cruising
ground.
Should Commodore Thelluson visit these waters
with the Guineverc he will doubtless receive
very cordial reception from American yachtsmen,
and he VIII be afforded every opportunity OF test
ing the speed Of his beautiful schooner with those
OF American model and build.
