IT is said that Commodore Harrison, of
San Francisco Yacht Club wi visit Pu-
get Sound, wit h yacht, the Frolic,
this season. We would advise the COM

the deck OF a steamer, and tie her up to
a tree on the bank while here, where he
can sit in the shade of the trees and see
that the craft is safe. Pu g, Sound isn't
quite a mill-pond, and the Com" might
lose himself or get seasick if he tried to
navigate it.
