 HUNTINGTON, N. Y, July 30.-The first days run of the cruising fleet of the New York Yacht club ended in spirited finish at the entrance to this harbor, and the event will go on record as one of the most interesting in the clubs history, not so much because of the number of boats in the race for the Commod pres cups, for there were only 17 starters-e:ghG schoon- CTS and nine SloopS-hut from the fact that Defender and Vigilant met for the fourth time and sailed d very close 2l mile race, and also that more than goo vessels fol lowed them around the course, presenting a marine pageant ut the upper end of Long IS.and snHu,; the like uf which has never been seen ..I"r on those waters.

It vas all Defender and Nigilant. The Wig lent had considerably the best of the start, iI. cause De. lender, in maneuvering for position, got too far away from the line, and when both were ready to get down to the line the Vigiiant was about three -cighths of n mile ahead.
 Within the first mile of the first leg of the course, which was one or ten miles, the Defender appeared to gain materially on the Vigilant, although the weather was truly Vigilant weather. The wind was not then blowing over five miles an hour. After turning the first buoy and standing in to the westward the breeze strengthened little bit.
 On the second portion of the course, which consisted of a long leg and a short one, when the Defender was carrying a baby jib topsail and the Vigilant one of larger dimensions, the new boat, which made one more tack than the old cham pion, gained on the Nigilant, having rounded the second buoy and started for the finish off Eaton's point at the entrance of Huntington harbor. On this run sheets were lifted free, and during it the Defend CT overhaulcd the Nigilant and beat her home by minute 42 seconds.
 The fleet of the club with all their lights blazing in the rigging, made an ap- pcarance off Huntington last night of a city on the sea. Fireworks were set of from several residences on shore and re. sponded to from the boats.
