promise of lively race. The Madeleine went on

THE START
was flying one, and the time OF each yacht was
taken as she crossed a line between stakeboat,
which was anchored IN the Narr0ws, near Fort
wadsworth Staten Island, and the judges steamer
the @. Chamberlin.
The signals for starting were given from the
judges steamer, as follows:-
For preparatory signal one gun, and the Yacht
Club nag ON the steamer lowered; and ten minutes
later for the start, one gun, and the nag again
lowered. The expiration OF the time was marked

when the time Of each yacht was taken as she

Although there was hardly sufficient breeze to
please everybody, the owners Of the small yachts
were tolerably well satisfied with their prospect
OF success as the water was smooth and there
was sufficient air to MI all the kites. The specula-
tlon on the result was rather limited but, II any
thing, public fancy appeared to favor the chances
or the Palmer. Idler and Madeleine and fdf once
the public were right The following yachts

1t was really very pretty start, as all the boats
went across on the starboard tack, with just suf
cient wind to make them slip through the smooth
water at lively gait, carrying all their Kites that
were OF use on the wind. The preparatory gun
was fired from aboard the S. Chamberlin at six
minutes past eleven. and considerable activity was
Immediately observed among the yachts, each one
moving up in the direction OF the line, awaiting
the starting signal. They were nearly all attired
in full dress carrying every available balloon. The
second gun, at fifteen minutes past eleven, gave
the signal to start, and the

looking as pretty as picture, glided across, set
ting her staysail rather useless sail in the wind,
by the way-and followed by the sl0Op Aradne.
The Ianthe came next, hugging the Staten Island
shore, with the Foam on her lee quarter and the
Eva to leeward OF her. Next came the Palmer flying
and setting her jib topsail, with the little
Peerless on ner weather quarter. The Madeleine
came next, running up her ib topsail, but, Judging
from the way the lder was laying over, jib topsals
appeared unnecessary. The sloOp Vixen followed,
with the Madge in her wake. balloon gar top

on the wind. The Oracle came next, with the

THE RACE.

Yesterday morning, at about quarter past ten,
the steamer c. Cbamberiin arrived of Staten
Island, and, alter running through the fleet, found
large number OF yachts prepared to race should
there be any wind. The weather was certainly Of
rather doubtful order; but there was pleasant
little breeze from the west-southwest that looked
rather like lasting The Regatta Committee
Ncssrs Krebs. Westray and Chase--then concluded
that it would be udcious the Meet az early
~ possible in order lose OF the prevailing
wind. The Chamberlin then steamed up to Fort
Wadsworth and took up a position about two
hundred and nifty yards to the eastward, so as TO
he able TO take the time OF the competing yachts as
! they crossed the line.
THE REGATTA
was sailed under the sailing regulations OF the
New York Yacht Cub, and attention IN called TO
ltAe fact that by recent action OF the club the rule
restricting the number OF men TO be carried on
regattas was rescinded, and yachts were allowed
TO carry any number OF men.
THE COURSE
was from the given line to and around stakeboat
at buoy No 81 on the southwest Spit, keeping IL
ON the port hand in turning; thence TO and around
the Sandy Hook lightship, keeping 1t on the star
board hand In rounding, and return over the same
course, keeping the southwest Spit buoy on the
starboard hand. Yachts kept to the eastward OF
buoys Nos. Q, IL and 10, on the west bank going
and returning, and passed between The judges
,boat and the stafeDoat IN arriving home.
THE PRIZES
comprised fonr, OF the value OF $3.50 each -
One prize for the schooner which makes the race
N tne shortest time, without time allowance
One prize for the schooner which wins with.fime
allowance.
One prize for the soop which makes the race in
the shortest time without time allowance.
one prize for the sloop which wins with time al
l0wance.
BY the rules no yacht shall receive more than one
prixe. and II the schooner or sloop which wins the
priye Of her class Eitbont time allowance wins

Coming home with the wind dead aft the yachts
came wing and wing. and the Madeleine with her
immense cloud OF canvas, finally succeeded in pass
ing the Idler and taking the lead OF the deet Pass
ing Quarantine Island, squall was observed gath
ering to the northward, and 1t became q matter OF
agitation whether IL would not catch the fleet be-
fore they got home. The Madeleine had slipped
away from the Idler, and when about one hundred
yards from the winning line she caught the first OF
the nun, and was forced to trim down on the port
tack She was. however, sufficiently near to enable
her TO lu and shoot across the line the winner OF
the prize without allowance. The Idler sent
down her balloon tOpsail when she saw
what was coming and trimmed down on
the wind, under mainsail, glib ana flying glib. The
Rambler had come out to see the yachts come
home, and her captain let everything come down
with run. The Palmer also took everything OF
excepting headsail and let the Foam go by her
under mainsall, glib and flying glib. The Idler
crossed the line, followed shortly afterwards by
the Foam, with the ResOute a few minutes later.
The Oracle and Vision came In close together, the
former leading by about a minute, and the Vixen
came next, followed by the Peerless and lanthe.
The Madgie received a bad knockdown just be-
fore she crossed the line and did not recover for
nearly thirty seconds. The Eva came in next some
distance ahead Of the Palmer, which had given up.

to uniustly prejudice the good name of the Clerk
OF the Assembly Mr.. O'Donnell, and his assistants,
and l. therefore, beg to correct the statement. IL
is true that have asked to have the bill printed

wrong but as a matter Of precaution in view OF
the unpleasant gossip which has occurred in past
years in reference to the Supply bill
The high character OF Mr.. ODonnell and the
good repute OF the Assembly Clerks desk during
the past winter render II impossible to doubt the
fidelity with which the supply bill has been en-
crossed. To prove this before the bill Is signed
will certainly do no harm, and ought not in the
meantime place the clerks under suspicion. Yours,

the breeze, commenced to close the gap, hunted up
Dy the Madeleine. The Eva came next, keeping
well up TO windward and sailing well for the time
