NIGHT THOUGHTS.

The principal attraction la the United
States this week, has been the attempt
at yacht race between two boats.
Now yacht race as rule is no very big
event, but this one Ia swell affair aud
every body is pulled up over 1t in some
shape, Just because one of the yachts
represents England aud the other, the
United States. This fact has made It
an International contest. John Bull
and Uncle Sam, though are very friendly
over the matter and bluh and bet with
each other in very cordial manner over
the result At this writing two efforts
have been made amid Intense excite
ment aud both have been failures be-
cause as much wind as has been tying
around very little Of ii seemed to 90 the
way OF the sails OF these lead heavy
boats, aud they failed to get such n
move on through the waters as would
take them over the course within the
prescribed time. They will keep trying
until they do, aud the winners and their
friends will howl.
