James Lawrence, left her moor
i8g buoy at Sandy Heck bar tnis
morning, bound for the Erie ba-
SIN, where she arrived at noon.
The yachts mainsail was unbent
aud she will probably be disman~

After Sir Thomas Upton, ao-
companied by Mr.. Jameson aud
Mr.. Watson. bad paid 8 farewell
visit 10 Colonel Burbank and his
fa aniIy at the military post on
Sandy Hook, the Ecln's aochor
was hove up and that yacht
steamed direct to New York.
She was saluted by all the out
going steams hips on her way up
the harbor.
Wben asked if it was true that
he was willing to put the captain
and crew Of the Shamrock on
board the Columbia and allow
that yachts crew to handle the
Shamrock in a series of races,
Sir Thomas said Eyes, I
should be willing to do ii, If it is
in the interest Of sport, and pro-
viaed, Of course, the other side
is wiling"
There will, however, be no
such race Monday next as both
the yachts are being stripped
and could not be put in trim
again for weeks.
DR.. E. Reid Mackay, Of the

son to believe that the Shamrock
will be laid pp in New York this
winter, and that in the spring or

against the Columbia, Constiuu-
