Formerty, before the press had made so much of « feature of the occasion, the day paved hardly noitoed, except by the partics more immediaiely intere-d, ut yoster day the barbor swarmed with vesaels of sil deacripions, from the smallest row boats to the river and ovaso swam ers, loaded with spectators; while the shores alt aloag the course were literally lined. The Yeobt Clan had chartered the steamer Josephine for the use o members and their families, and the Sateliiie for he outsiders and members of the press; and just previous to ne bour of starting the railing of sristocratic carriages startled the rather plebian jocality of the foot of Leroy street. ‘The Josephine was crowded with @ merry party of ladies and gentiomen, while the Sate! ite was monop0 lized mainly by the “ stags,” ana left their respeclive wharves precisely at their predetermined hours of too and balf past ten, and made for woe starting ground off the Bysian Fields. Here a most magaificoent sight was presented, The day was as clear aud beautiful as the ‘most fas idious could desire, 80 far as appearances W tho eye were concerned. Aji the yachis entered were at their places, the third class abreast of the stake boats, eighty yards apart ; the second class, two ha:dred yards to the north, and the first class stil) two hundred yards beyond, parallel to the third. Most of them had all cai! tet except their jibs, ana together, presenting as they did tn one coup d’ail a view of probabiy the finest models to the world, the sight was one which no citizen of the United States could view without satisfaction and admiration. Then, far ar as the eye could reach, the bay was coted with tails of every size; and, as the excarsion bate col- lected, comprising the Thomas Hunt, Aurora, W. G, Put- nem, Flora, Kawin, Keyport,8.

Yet beaides these, the revenue cutter Harriet Lane was crowded, as ‘were alao the W. H. Webb and the barge Irene, while the sbores of New York and Hoboken were biack with people But— unfortunately there must most aiways be s but— there was ecarcely a perceptible breeze, indeed not eavagh to float the ensigns sufficiently to distinguish them. Tais seemed particularly bard,as the prees have made zealous efforts to have ail the competing yachts carry dis. tinguishing ensigns, and this wae the frst year that that desirable object bad been accomplished But (another but) the fates would have it, and in spite of the ompipetent Yacht Clu the breeze would not blow. In vain did old yaohtmen let slip smoth. ered ex+orations, apd yacht builders look disvonsolate, ‘and betters and sport lovers dwscomfitted, for in spite of all, the wind would not blow, and the ves sels lay as Colm ond quiet as a Yankee freighting vosse! submitting to a British outrege. The men on the yachts Jounged about the decks, looked up at the flapping sails, and watched the amoke from their segars circling lazily away, undisturbed by the slightest ripple of the atmos phere, and looked the very picture of despair. The steamboats, floated with the ebb tide, backed acd veered so as to keep clear of one another and get good positions to see the start, and bear the music on the Josephine; but the bour of starting passed by, aud there was not breeze enough to biow away & modern faahienadle ladys’ bonnet.
