Mr.. LAWsovs Bolt ADMISSIBLE.

Aew-York yachtsmen seem to be OF opinion
that no objection will be made on the part of
the trustees Of the Americas Cup 10 the enter
ing OF the Lawson yacht 70 the defence trials
In 1886 1887 and 1898 competition was invited
by the New-York Yacht Clubs committee, and
the only reason ii was not invited in the years
1885 and 1893 was because the defence seemed
sufncienty prepared for when the Defender and
the Columbia were about to issue from the
hands Of the Herreshoffs. The practice fol-
lowed in the last two challenge years has. how
ever, not been made a rule. and is not consid-
cred to affect the tradition that the defence of
the Cup is National affair. The words of the
original transfer of the Cup 10 the first trustees
OF 1t seem 10 bear out this idea In the word
ing OF this transfer, dated July 1857, it is said
that the condition of keeping IL open 10 be sailed
"for by yachts of all foreign countries. upon the
terms above laid down, shall forever attach TO
II, making IL perpetually challenge cup for
friendly competition between foreign countries" :"
The words between foreign countries" in this
original transfer seem clearly TO say that the
donors of the Cup intended it 10 remain forever
as thoroughly National and international tro-
ply, and as a matter Of strict law il NAV be
questioned whether the present trustees have
the power to refuse Mr.. Lawson's entry for the
challenge races.
Mr.. Lawson is not a member OF the New-Yorlz
Yacht Club. but apart from any attempt TO
stand on strict rights the club will probably, it
is thought. be pleased TO have one more con-
trioutor to the sport of next year and to the
general defence and safety of the Gun When
challenge has come from the other side the
beat produced has always been the output of
the designer thought to he the best available in
I the country, and for the defence tho fos+as+
racer that could be possibly obtained has al
ways been put forward To refuse to consider
eraft which might possibly be much faster
man that hrst thought Of as the defender. and
which was built at great expense for this
especial object. is something that the trustees
IN no country will perhaps be willing TO do. and
Is certain mat at any time in the future such
a move would be almost universally unpopular.
The Americas Cup was originally intended 10
represent the yachting supremacy OF the coun-
I Try holding IL, and the idea Of allowing this
ereat honor to pass away through trusting 10
possibly second best boat is one which no
. American can entertain for a moment.

Of the happiest tokens OF complete Nauonal
unity The great error of men OF the schooi Oh
Randolph and Calhoun was in thinking the IN

form. was revived and repeated by MT hl9an
