THE YACHTING SEASON.

The yachting season OF 1874 will be duly IN
augurated on Wednesday, June 10, by the regatta
OF the Atlantic Yacht Club. The absence OF such
yachts as the Sappho, Enchantress, viking and
Fausine in European waters and the determine
ton OF some yacht owners not to compete in the
different regattas viii probably diminish the ex-
element In many of the seasons contests but
still there are enough fast yachts lett to make the
racing well worth seeing. The Atlantic Yacht
CLUB regatta will bring out such schooners as the
Tidal Wave, Peerless, Triton, Idler and Comet. AS
this will be the first appearance in public or the
last named yacht, and as the Tidal Wave has been
heightened and rebuilt since last season. It il ha I'd
to say how they Will go. The Peerless and Triton
are well matched and will certainly make good
race while rumor also speaks very highly OF the
recent performances OF the ldler. They will sail
over the usual lightshp course, and the steamer
Magenta, carrying the members OF the club and
their guests, Will accompany the yachts through
OUT the race.
THE NEW YORK YACHT CLUB
Will sail their regatta the following day Thurs
day. June H. and although they DO not anticipate
large NUMBER OF entries the well known reputa-
ton OF the contesting yachts will give great IN
terest to the contest The yachts will start from
OFF Vanderbilt's landing and sail over the regular
ciuD course round Sandy Hook lghtship and re-
turn. passing TO the westward OF buoy No. sa, on
the Southwest Spit, going and coming. The Re-
gatta Committee for 1874 are Messrs. william
Krebs. Edward +. Chase and William b. Bend.
They have secured the steamer William Cook for
the use OF the members Of the club and their
guests, and q suitable boat will also be provided
for the Judges and members OF the press. Up to
the present time the only entries that have been
made are the schooners Phantom and Ider in the

This was well contested AFFAIR. The weather,
moreover was exceedingly favorable. The wind
was blowing In the direction OF the targets.
Strange enough, however, some OF the very best
shots In the association did not make their usual
average. but this result was attributed In some in
stances to the fact that the markers laed to snow
the signal when the target was struck. Then,
again. many excellent marksmen among them
CAPTAIN Bodine. had weapons with which they
were entirely unfamiliar. But this does not in
the least detract from the skill displayed by
Colonel Gldersleeve and the others who carried
OIL the prizes. Out OF seven shots Colonel Glider
sleeve HIT the bulls eye six times as did also Mr..
Fulton, OF the Twelfth regiment. 1t was alto
gether very interesting event. Many OF the
marksmen showed more proficiency at the long
range than during the previous matches.

Miniature Yachting.

The rather threatening aspect OF the weather
had the effect OF essening the number OF model
yachts on Prospect Park Lake yesterday, and only
four or i've OF the large schooners put In an
