to hand says:
judging from the first trial OF Shamrock
with Britannia, we should say that she will be
very evenly matched with Columbia. or

sum ption.' But Britannia may be taken as
about equal to Viglant. whilst Defender is.
say. seven or eight minutes better than either.
on such day as Columbia can barely beat
Defender by the balance OF the time between
Shamrock and Britannia: ut the same time. a

boat should have done better than she did. in
view of the enormous difference in the scant-
