Arrival of Steam Yachts.

Yesterday was marked by the presence of
three fine steam yachts in the harbor, two of
them ocean steamers in miniature. The
Electra, owned by Mr.. Elbridge T. Gerry of
the New York Yacht Club, is magnificent
craft and called the finest in America. She
is 167 feet long and % feet deep, and most
luxuriously furnished. Even the funnel of
her steam launch is brass. She is provided
with Holophern light, imported from Paris,
which she carries in her bow, which illumin-
ates the ocean for five miles, and has an
Illuminating power of 10000 candles Last
night Mr. Gerry Illuminated the yacht with
the Edison incandescent light, in colors, thus
outlining the yacht most brilliantly. She is
bound to Bar Harbor. Mr.. Gerry says more
yachts would visit cur harbor if there was
an established yacht anchorage ground, at a
spot where the yachts could be seen by the
public, and where there was easy and con-
venient landing for ladies. As it is now,
yachts are liable to be moved two or three
times by the harbor master at great incon-
yenience.
The Stranger, Mr.. Jeffreys owner, also of
the New York Club, is not quite as large as
the Electra, but she is magnificent craft
The Edith, Mr.. James Eustis, owner, of
Boston, sailed for Halifax. She is about 60
feet long

Saved from watery Graves.

Two young men from Deering were out
yachting yesterday, and were between Cow
Island and Little Chebeague when the show
er struck them, and before they could furl
their sail squan struck and capsized their
yacht. They were seen flom Long Island,
and two boats set out and signalled the
steamer Gordon, which was on her way up
to the city. Capt. Long had also witnessed
the catastrophe, and with great presence OF
mind he ran the steamer up to and rescued
the nearly exhaus ted yachtsmen. The Cor
don had party of excursionists on board,
and from the time of discovering the capsiz-
ed mariners to the rescue, there was great
excitement on board the steamer. The men
were kindly cared for by Capt. Long, who
put them into his berth, and when the Cor
don arrived in this city they were both in a
happy frame Of mind. The steamer was
taken widely from her course, and nearly
twenty minutes were consumed in the search
for the men. The Harpswell Steamboat
Company are fortunate in having Capt Long
in their employ, as his good judgment yester-
day shows him to be fully competent for the
position he occupies
