 The race at Portchester yesterday between the yacht Vixen of the New Haven Yacht club and the yacht Ceres owned by William Ward, of Portchester, attracted a large at tendance. The course as marked out was ten milss to the windward and return. The turning point was at Sanders Point buoy we'll off on the Long Island shore. An un- derstanding was had that the rules of the New Haven Yacht club should govern the race. The winning boat was to receive . $50 solid silver cup with artistic design, and $50 side additional was put up by both the interested parties. There was stiff south west breeze and the water was rough The boats started, the Vixen at l1:25, Ceres at 11:27. The Endeavor, P1ospero and other crafts, including the Louise from Newport, N.

A Poem Written om Grain of Rice.
 IOyerland China Mail

A Chinese teacher in the colony has just presented quite a curiosity to the City Hall museum. Many of our readers have doubt less seen specimens of printing compressed within very small limits, such for instance as the whole of the Lords prayer contained within a circle the size of finger ring This, however, is not a specimen of minute typography, but of caligraphy; for it con sists of stanza of poetry, composed by the teacher himself, which contains thirty three distinct and we'll formed Chinese characters written out in the full style without any contractions, though the most comnlicated characters are introduced into this Gllipntian poem. It seems almost in- credible. but it is fact that the whole of these thirty-three characters are inscribed on one grain of unhulled rice. It is only another instance of the patient toll which g Chinaman will spend over apparently un- remuneratiye work. The grain of paddy is enclosed under magnifying glass, in 8 silver locket Accompanying it is wood en box containing sort of discourse of which the grain of paddy forms the text. There are also other papers with it, some relating to the presentation of this curio to the Royal Princes, Prince Albert Victor and George of Wales, for whom 1t was originally intended, but owing to the hitch which occurred in the whole of the ar~ raneement at that time, the intending don- or was never able to accomplish his object, though he used every means in his power to do so,
