Hayden, agent. tt, Mr. Gorman appears to have been the man: The Cambria Forty Miles Nearor Sandy Bract Position of the Fwo Yachts was therefore considerably to the northward of the great circle course between Old Kinsale Head and Cape Race, the shortest distance between the two Coast linea. It wili also be seen by any one who will take the trouble to examine the charts of the Atiantio Ocean that the Cambria was exactly in the steamship track of vessels plying between this port and Giasgow. Hook Than the Dauntless at Noon on the 9th Inst, ‘When Last Heard From. ‘The ocean yacht race 1s now exciting a good deal It appears from the despatches TAB OAMBRIA Expertenced and skilful navigators, who have carefully computed the aro of the great circle be- tween Old Kinsale Head and Cape Race, fix its very highest latitude at 61 deg. 48 min, 66 sec., north, and, in determining this point, the set of currents has been considered, the probable character of the prevailing winds and all those delicate influences which would be apt to accelerate or retard the speed of n vessel relying upon the winds for ner only motive power. It will thus be seen that the Cambria ts nearly three de- grees to northward of the aro of the great circle upon which all navigators on this side of the water declare she shoul have sailed; or, to speak with mathematical precision, we mbria owas, ou the 9th day of July, at noon, 162 miles to northward of her best and smn. gqar. At te eto sett mp possi! #0 vel i W tho Caiabria Téached that post- tion, which vc%!8 by compass neariy west-northwest from Old Kiasale” Head, the starting point of the rival schooners. She Way have stood Bp to this latitude and longitude on iN port (ack, olose hs.1ed, in which event it were necessary to have the win! at least as far southerly as west-southwest, bait weat, thus allowing the Cambria to sail within three and one-half points of the wind, It would be folly to suppose that the Camoria tacked into aay such position where she was re- ported, and it must therefore be assumed that she reached the point named by astretch to northward, But there ts a phase of this problem in navigation that every one familiar with ocean courses will readily recognize. It is well known that the Guif Stream, which takes a wide circuit and flows toward the western coast of Iceland, is a retarding force to all vessels trying to make way against it, and the great Cireie opurse alluded to above, in a manner gets rid of this otherwise insurmountable barrler to feet sailing.’ That northerly course is also pursued to take advantage of the westerly sct of currents to northward of the Gulf Stream, and it is bighly pro- bable that the Cambria is on the track reported, in order to accelerate her epeed by this means; but it Is still a fact that she was, by nearly three degrecs, to northward of the highest course approached by expert men. Possibly she may have tacked and sailed a southerly and easterly course on the starboard tack, shortly alter she was sighted, in order to decrease her degrecs of latitude, or she may have stood on | corder; her course, about west-northwest, with the inten- Uon of tacking when much nearer the Atlantic sea- coast. ‘Itis plain that the nearer the Cambria is to tho seacoast of America on her present course, with the winds remaining unchanged, the easter it will be for her to stand down to bandy Hook on the starboard tack, It is pcssibie that this may be the intention of her navigator. Summed up, the position of the Cambria is un- doubtedly a good ove trom all that ts known at pre- sents but the fact still remains that she ts considera- bly out of her track, Of course It is impossible to forecast what winds she has experienced since the day sighted, or what course she has shaped or her Positionnow. tis enough, and it ictly Just to say, that she has domg well. THE DAUNTLESS ‘was reported by the Devereaux (bound from Charles- ton for Liverpool) after nightfall on the 8th inst. as being in latitude 49 degrees 18 minutes nortn, longi- tude 18 degrees west. The telegram aid not give her course or the direction of the wind, but the lat- ter may safely be assumed as southerly and wes- terly, The longitude of Fastnet Rock is 9 degrees 26 minutes west, and the latitude 51 degrees 24 min- utes north, Fasinet Rock being forty-three miles from Old Kinsale head, It will thus be seen that the Dauntiess was 156 miles to southward of the parallel of latitude from which she sailed, while the Cambria ‘was 342 miles to northward of the Dauntless. The Dauntless was 18¢ miles to southward of the arc of the great circle mentioned above, But it must be borne in mind that the Dauntiess | was spoken on the 8th inst. and the Cambria on the 9th inst. From what we can judge it must have been in the night time of the 8th inst., and we will aliow at ery ‘a The Dauntless, it will appear from the computations presented below, must have logged about 130 knots every twenty-four hours, on her course sailed, though if she tacked she actualiy sailed more distance. The reason for this southerly course of the Dauntless 18 thus told by The Spirtt of the Times: — As we have stated heretofore, we had a long conversa with Captain Samuels on the day before he sailed for ¥: laud to take cou.mand of the Dauntless. He then comm cated to us his scheme for the passage, with liberty to pub- Uish so much of it as the public mizut be expected to under- ‘stand and appreciate, after the yachts hnd sailed.
