The chairmen of most of the commtttces were not present, and consequently no report was received from many of the most important departments, A. few reports, however, were made, showing that the hot weather considerably interfered with the work- ing of the association to its full extent, everything except the drawback occasioned by the one great discomfort, which kept people away from ali devo- Uonal and charitalle gatherings, Whether tn ther own improvemess or the Improvement of others, being tn most favorable order tov the future, Mr. CanrENrer, of the Invitation Comailitee, re- Ported that his committee contiaued, tuough in very much reduced numbers, to attend to work.

ON Boarp Steam Yacrt JRANunrt, | Orr Sanvy Hook, July 1870, Old sea dogs are gallant fellows at sea—ashore they put doctors in the shade when differing im opinion. There is an old story about the priest of the parish having lost his constdering cap, but What became of it even after hoary headed sages had thought for weeks, was never satisfactorly ascertained. And 80 it is in relation to the interna- tonal yacht race. There have been more opinions expressed about this contest than, perhaps, any of whatever description that has ever taken place. It 1s@ pleasure to watch we honest, weather beaten visages of the veteran mariners who occastonally touch at this point when asked what they think about the race. Tho profound look, the earnest expression. which is not without its compliment of self-suMciency and the fina! de- verance of the solemn aunouncement of the day and date on which the winning vessel shail hat! the lightship, are something’to be remembered. It is a. notabie fact that the older and more experienced tho sailor 1 the Longer time he gives the yachts.

Pilots of steamtuga around here daily state that they are now ON THE LOOKOUT for vessels due over two and some threo weeks, Altogether, although the yachts may arrive to-night, and it ts hardly probable, since to-day heaa winds have prevailed, the general belief ts that should elther of them arrive by Wednesday a magnificent passage will have been accomplished. The ateamboats running from New York for the Highlands and surrounding localities were crowded to-day, and atthe principal stopping places along tho way the most earnest tnquiries wore made as to whether any of the yachts had arrived. In fact, the international race is the all-absorbing topic everywhere, and where a view can be obtained wistful glances are being momentarily cast toward the lightship in anticipation of the.great gun that will triumpbantly welcome the victorious craft, SANDY HOOK {3 welt named.

If any race took place this is the firat I know of it. The America got under way about nine o'clock A.M. and stood for tue Hook. In a iew moments the Tidal Wave was seen to get under way, and it appearea that when both vessels were off the Ame- rica was about halfa mile ahead. So long as the breeze continued even moderate the America gained rapidly on the Tidal Wave; the moment tt fell light the latter came up very fast. The America was about one mile ahead of the Tidal Wave when the uoy at Southwest Spit was passe |, ani it was not until the Amertca reached off Port Monmouth that the Tidal Wave passed her, the wind then having 80 much fallen a$ to render it almost calm. The America’s deck was much iumberea upaith unnecessary dockyard gear (since removed), and ste was too much hailasted—in fact, greatly out of trim; but if the Tidal Wave wishes a iittie cheap glory at.’ the America's expense she ty welcome to ti, ong perhaps it may console her for coming tn $0 badly ut the last regatta, Your correspondent says nothing of the Amica outwinding and beating the Tidat Wave ou Feiday, when the breeze was moderate, One thing is very certatn.
