8 THE YACHT SQUADRON. Apaual Cruise of the Yaché .Club. GRAND BALL AT NEWPORT. What is Fashionable at that Watering Place, aud What is Not, New Work SHODDY EXCHUSIVENESS AND SNOBRERY. ' &e, &e. &e. Newrorr, R. 1, August 22, 1866. A TIP TO NEW BEDYORD. On Saturday forenoon the Yacht nof fled by the Commodore to make ready to leave f New Bedford, and they were not long in getting under way. The Calypso was the first among the smaller yachts to disappear from view, followed tm quick suc- version by the others that intended making the voyace. ‘The passage was a pleasant one; owing to a good breeze from the southwest they wore not delayed a single mo- ameut. As they sailed into New Bedford harbor in the afternoon suluies were exchanged with the echoolship Maseachueetts, which was gayly decked with tlags and had her yards manned for the occasion, The authorities of the port showed the pleasure seoking mariners every nitention, By order of the Mayor a salute of eleven guns was fired in henor of the feet, ‘The bands on board the several yachts digcoursed their usual fine music. ‘The inhabitants of the town thronged the wharves and the jiadies and naval men of the port waved a welcome to the new come Daring the even- mg there was a display of fireworks at various points, The yacht Palmer was beautifuily ilvminated with Whinese lanterns, The effect was very ive, On Sun- day, the weather being untavorable, the yachtmen kept to their cabins, On Monday morning the majority of the equadron sailed for Holmes’ Hole, Martha’s Vine- yard, where the party were pleasantly entertained, and were highly interested in the great preparations whieh were being made for the usual periodical marmoth camp meeting TUE WENIINTTA AND WIDOKON made a flying visit to Edgarstown, On Tuesday morning she enuire fect set sail for Newport, where, with a favor- adie breeze, they arrived early in tho afternoon. To-day shere is a high wind, which will prevent many of thom from geing outside the harbor, The Vesta, however, notwithsianding the blow, left for New York this fore- ‘noon. To-morrow the greater number will sail for New London, where it ia likely they will be dismissed for the weason, cach suilng from there where fancy lists. Simce my last letter the yacht Nettie, of Boston, has joined the equadren. Squadron were me THY, asa whole, bas this eeason been a most snecesstul and enjoyable one. At every place where the fleet called (if Newport be excepted) it waa received with the utmost attention and kindness. This it justly merits, seeing that the squadron represents the advanced ideas of the day in the way of naval architecture, and forms an admirable school for the instruction ef a number of young men in seamanabip. In this way {t may here- fatter prove of inestimablo service to the country at large. The most delightful harmony and yood fecling bave been maintained from the start between the several members of the Club, and I do not know of one disa- agreeable incident which has tended in the ieast to mar ‘the pleasure vf any one. A NOP £9 THE OCKAK MOUSE, ‘The first bal of the season came off st the Ocean ‘eure on Sziurday evening. The dancing took piace in the large dining hall, which was elegantly fiised up for ‘Me oceasion.

Among the gentlemen were the Viscount Southwell, London; the Viscount Do Ckabral, Paris; Alborto A.

To the sojourner at Newport there are a great many ‘Batura! advantages of land, air aad coean which it were Foolish not to enjoy to thelr full extent, Instead of ‘wasting time a1 noney on the tedious and overdone avenue, it World be advisable to seok health and Feereation ai the num@rous really beautiful drives of the Reighborhood.
