 There is quite active interest taken in the project of getting up another sharpie race at Ssvin Rock, by the local boatmen. at the Grand Army picnic was not entirely satisfactory to the owners of some of Fair Haven's flyers on account of the lightness of the wind and the fact of each boat being limited to certain amount of canvas pro- portionate to the capacity of the boat. Savin Rock parties, 1t is said, are anxious to have another race sailed off that resort and will probably raise a purse. Fred. Rowe, Will. Horton and other well known boatmen are taking much interest in the scheme, and it seems likely that some half dozen of the boys will enter the race if 8 purse is raised. It is understood that each boat entering will be allowed to carry as much sail as it can possibly stand up under and the race if it comes off will be highly excit- ing.
