In addition to the events mentioned
there were contests for the Nice prizes Tor
yachts not exceeding five tons and matches
for smaller classes of yachts. In all there
were seven events on the racing program.
Tho Ailsa got away at 10:4O a. m. with
n clever lead on the Britannia and last IN
creased tho distance between them IN
the close reach to the first mark OF the
triangular course. Very light air pre-.
vnileC in the beat to the first mark and
the Valkyrie III had big streak OF lucky
wind. which was just strong enough in its
flnkiness to put her ahead Of the Ailsa
But the latter quickly regained the lead,
and. after reaching round the second and
third sides OF the course, was about a mile
ahead of the Britannia at the end OF the
first round, distance OF about 10 miles,
three times around this course completing
the total distance OF 30 miles
The following is the time Of the yachts
at the end OF tho first round:
Fl. NJ. g..

Britannia ..................N- ......... o2 w
VAlkyrie IL. .....'...... 90 ~
Therefore at tho end Of the first round
Ailsn had n lead of lam. 20s. on Britannia.
AS the afternoon wore ON tho breeze
slightly increased in strength.
Ailsa won easily. beating Britannia by
about three miles over the 80 mile course.
After the completion of the first round
tho racing became very tedious, owing tc
the fact that tho wind fell away quickly.
But Ailsa continued to steal away and
led Britannia by two miles at the end OF
the second round.

Ed. Register-During this month but
one good rain has fallen here, hence
the growth of corn, millet &c, was con-
siderably retarded and their yield will
necessarily be less than it would have
been, if we had been blessed witL
abundant and frequent rains as were
other sections near here.
It rained hereabouts throughout the
night of the 18th inst, and doubtlessly
greatly benefited late corn and pota-
toes and pastures and terminated re-
