the week. With the termination Of
Fridays race the score stood 2 to 2,
and the Hext race decides Possession
of the cur. Shamrock won the first
ace in a walk, due to al accident to
Resolute's rigging. The second race
required two attempts. the first being
a failure due to lack of wind. On
the second attempt Shamrock won,
but the race was a fitful one, the wind
varying and favoring first one sloop
and then the other. The third race.
won by Resolute, was better, and the
fourth, also won by Resolute. seems
to have been the best Of the lot.
From all descriptions that have been

quite in favor of the winning of the
final race by Resolute provided
there is sufficient wind to make a real
race of it.
