T, und Devoted Yachtsman, New York, July-26, 1871, To THE EpITOR OF THE HERALD:— Dzgar S™R—Will you do me the honor to admit to ‘the hospitality of your columns. the following letter, ‘which was addressed some time ago to the Spirtt of the. Times, partly in response to an individual who 4s publishing in that paper @ multiplicity of letters ver tne signature of “Devoted Yacltsman,’’ and ‘with whom I had been hoiding a discussion upon Yachts and their models and other things appertain- fag to matters nautical? Several instalments of a Jong article on tnese subjects (of which the ensuing Tetter 1s the conciuding portion) were published ‘Weekly in the Spirit, and Mr. “Devoted Yachtsman’” Feplied to them in detail. But this latter half was pecs by the editor, and, deeming 11 wo be his tention not to insert it in the Spirt?s columns, from the tone of his letters to me, J asked for my Manusorpt, and it is this for which 1 solicit an @ppearance in the HEKALD. This was the first me Quy letter of mine was over suppressed by the ivit, and doubtiess the partiality and favors own to “Devoied Yachisman” were the cause of ts imprisonment in the Syii’’s pigeon holes, we diiferead with him openly and honestly, and Knowing your love of justice and courtesy to all we presumed upon it to consign this t your ig, to divide for pubiication in such way aa you deom suitable to the space you cau spare me. Ina nt letier to the Spirit of the Times “Devoted ‘achisinan’’ so fur forgot ihe rules of epistolary Sntercourse to be Observed between gentlemen as to ily insalt and misrepreseut ime.

I am, si, yours {letter Originally Intended for “'Spirit”’—Part No. 1.) Overhang Sterns. - The first vessel ever bullt witn an overhanging gern in Engiand, with the lines carried aft of the stern-post, was built by Ratsey, of Cowes, from a Model presented io him by Mr. Grinnell, of unis city, and mado by Robert Fish, Mr. Fish made nim two @odels, which were cut about two years after the Sruant was sent out to England—one for a Sohooner and one for a sloop. The Bnglish yacht Sala was the schooner Mr. Raisey constructed from Mr. Fish’s model. She once beat the American yacht Silvie in a race in English waters, The steras ‘ef these models were round. The rule for salling the vosscis built upon them was the length on the water line for measurement. Can Mr. “D, Y.”, after this information, again assail the American sriginator of overhanging sterns and maintain that Re copies from the English? If the gentieman ever Wisits the “tight little islana’”’ and finds there any- WAlng that 1s an advantage in the way cf improving either the speed of yachts or horses I sincerely nope be will adopt it; but for this I would never dream of saying he was ‘‘Englishized,”” which he accuses our™| modeliers of being. Tnese overhanging sterns are Bot novelties tous. The fast and famous schooner @. T. Blodgett, bulit by Mr. Fish over fourteen years ago, had an overhanging stern of tweniy-eight feet. Bhe was 100 feet on the keel, 144 feet over all and thirty feet beam. Her centre-board was thirty feet tong and twelve feet wiae, Her carrying capacity was 360 tons, and you can judge of her bulk. Her sabin was aft of tie stern-post. Sho is now running, ®r was at last accounts, between China and South |. America, About three years ago I nud a conversa- Yon with a gentleman to whom this vessel was ‘amiliar, and he pronounced her a model of speed end weatherly qualities. The sloop yacht Annie, of brilliant record, also from the same modeller, had an overhanging stern, and how passing strange for our yachting propiet to think the Enchantress and Wanderer are the first yachts constructed here with this, to my eye, great improvement, when their modelier bas seut from bis workshop at least sixty or seventy, large and small, on this plan, within the last fifteen years! Forgive me for daring to remind you of these little Matters, but the fact is I love dearly to stir you up, and my heart yearns to see some of those ideas, re- sembling “yeliow-Jackets in @ hornet’s nest,” as you Say they do, gushing forth, rich and golden, to ald tm my destruction, And poor “Tom Cringle” and “Hackmatack”’ and ‘Josephus’ and the rest of your salumaolators, my dear boy, must they be stung to i ga too? The ancient and athietic Ajax de- the lightning, Which was supposed to be a bravo nd brazen act. Shall we be equally audacious to defy this sting ¥ In his letter of April 1 the gentleman makes the folowing inquiry:—“Who, with @ bautical eye to ace, Btyle, symmetry or uility, would think of paring the sterns of the yachts just aliuded to to the stern Of the Sappho or Dreaduanugut, with the "ey, of disparaging the jatcer two f” response pernaps 1 may be permitted to say although the Sappho’s stern may be very nd possessed Of great “utility,” as the “Devoted? terms it (and a8 moss sleros are), Mr. Douglas talks of carrying it out farther, as he cousiders it her greatest de- fect as far as appearance goes, ie intends patting topgaliaut bulwarks on her, and when pleted now ungainiy her present stern will ik | But, ol cyuree, if the great American ob- tor and Would-be yacating criuc, with bis indis- tablé ideas Of naval architectural beauty, con- mins the plan, the Vice Commodore of the New fork Yacht Oiub must let alone is Sappho, ‘ould the infallible unknown not like to be con: suited upon this and every other proposed altera- tuon gentiemen design making in their yachts? Or Would that unductored disease of lits—‘modesty— which he confesses will one of these days make some life Insurance companies quake, deny him the @raudcation of suggesting such a thing? Shail we eail tt modesty,” or self-conceit ? In his letter of Narch 11 our imdomitablo Scribe fatties away about some challenge he says he nas heard of, ia which Captain Samuels ‘oered to tch the Dreadnaught against the Euchantress T $6,000 a side, the Enchantress to remain untried, she Dreadnaught to be rigged on the stocks, and the face salied the ay she was launched, which suid thalienge was deciuned.” Now, tay dear Mr. ‘“). ¥.,’’ { have too good an spinion of Captain Samuels’ good sense to think he ever made such an offer for this amount of money. When he tells me so himself, or the owner of rhe EI ehantress, then I wiil believe it, but cannot on your word. Tiiat some ove did rumor that some kind of an absurd challenge bear ing a similarity to this was veyed to the owner of the Enchantress I aid i, Dut not one word reached my ears about the $5,000, 1am sorry if such a challeige was given it was not accepted, for the latter’s sake, I also heard she challenge was declined, for the very good reason that the Euchantress Was farther advanced tn her onstruction than the Dreadnaugnt, and, as the Dwner had made his plans and invited his gnests for an ocean trip, it Was impossible to delay it for guch a great length of time as it would take to com- plove the Dreadnaught. Again, I heard and kuow that a challenge was offered to gall the Enchantress against the Dreadnaught at any Ume twenty mics windward and back in an eight-knot breeze, and any amount of money. Don’t let our friend of jack and prattling be uneary, If Captain Samuels aited so much to match the Dreadnaught ten, btless he will be just as anxious to test her goo wes with the Enchantress after he js fully satis. with her tviai trips, of which J believe he is ing many, Then We Can sec fair play, each yacht racing trim, and “D, Y.” betting beavity op his worlte; for of course ig willing to back nig inion with ‘fithy lucre.”’ Yes, if 1t was “Devoted ‘achtman’s” desire to write up the merits of thi vessel of famous nowenciature in the shape of ao $dvertisement, and she is really up for a market, he bonld have chosen no better medium than the reese of the Spirit. eir circulation 18 vas' our pPopheuc friend says in one of his letter: readnanght nas been rap over with a perfect of visitors for the past two weeks,” we were to believe sone Mile Puenome Gon, 80 aragon of yachting pexiection, wae ere two i@ her seaward fight, and find er rival ‘yin the eagles of the air, Ani had I ie eows that the Spirit of the Times was a gentle ’é Hewspape't.

WALL STRERT, WEDNESDAY, August 2—6 P, M, THB FEATURB of the Wall street market to-day was the light offer- ing at the Sub-Treasury, We noticed yesterday that @ large short interest existed in governments, espe- clally in tive-twenties, This 1s further shown by the small amount of bonds offerea to the Secretary, The aggregate of these offerings was $1,600,(00, with @ fraction over, the accepted amount being $162,500. This later gyre represents the offering at PAR IN GOLD and under, and in view of this immediate stoppage of Mr, Boutwell’s buying policy there has been much interest in the atreet to know what his future action would be. The popular opinion runs into the idea that the Secretary of the Treasury has the pow- er at the present time to cancel the interest on the five-twenty bonds whose five years option has-ex- pired. This isa mistake, Taking the law as It ace tually stands the best interpretation 1s that the Sec- retary is authorized to exchange dollar for dollar of the present six per cent against the new five per cent loan. ‘The fact that he may sell at par in gold does not authorize him to stop the interest on the five-iwen- ties except that for every new tive per cent bond 1 sue he can withdraw a six per cent bond, GOVERNMENTS STRONG. ‘The government list to-day was firm, being stimu- verrons! When they go out to havea raco may I be there to see! Icare not which ope wins so long as the race 1s igh run; but I want to see victory perch on the fiag of the fastest. Yours reat “ Tho Toms River Yacht Club Regatta. The Toms River Yacht Clab made their first ap- pearance before the public on Thursday, the 27th ult., a day long to be remembered by all in this sec- tion of the State interested im aquatic pleasures, The race was for the club challenge oup, valued at $200, to be sailed for by the yachts of Toms River and Bar- negat Bay, the winner to hold the cup for three months and then to be subjoct to challenge. The course was from Westray’s Point, at the mouth of Toms River, to and around the stakeboat twelve mules down the bay and home, making a course of about twenty-four miles, The day opened with a fine breeze, but before reaching the anchoring ground, previous to the start it was nearly a dead caim, which caused many to chauge tueir opinions as to the result of the race. ‘The contestants were the Maria, Legal Tender, Sarah & May, Haze, Lule, Vapor, Sallie Bower and Lizzie Hopkins, the finest yacnts upon Barnegat Bay. The start was given precisely at ten o'clock, and all got sway together, but owing to the light breeze litle headway was made until reaching a point some eight miles away, when the wind freshened and continued throughout the race. The V the first to round the lower stakeboat, followed closely by the Legal tender and Maria, the balance of the tlect following wellup. The same positions were retained untll rounding Good Luck Polat, when Legal Tender passed the Vapor and took ‘rst position, which she retatned to the end although closeiy pressed by the Vapor. By allowance of thine the Vapor won the challenge cup, the Legal Tender the second prize—a tureen and salver. The third prize was secured by the jaria—a suit of colors. ‘The conduct of the race was very creditable to the club, it being their frst exhibit, it was particularly satisiactory to all. ‘The Commodore’s yacht, dressed in her gala day colors, presented a novel sight to the people in this section when approaching her anchoring grouad, followed, as she was, by the entire feet. On board the Commodore's yacht were the invited uests, among Whom were ex-Governor Parker, Mr, joseph Chattelier, Mr. Tom Piacide, Mr. Francis, in- ventor of the metallic lifeboat, Mr. Fletcher West- a Mr. George M.

The reports that nave reached this city from Eu- rope in regard to the alarming increase of that dread pestilence, the cholera, has in a great measure preyed upon the public mind in all the seaport towns and cities, A HERALD reporter called on Dr, Moreau Morris, of the Heaith Department, yesterday afternoon, when the following facta were gieaned:— ReroRTER—Do you fear a vis itation of cholera this season? Dr. Morris—Ido not fear a visitation this year unless @ ship should start direct irom Kussia to this ort with the disease on boara; ard, even then, I hink that our quarantine ia so well aduunistered ‘we could confine it in the lower bay. Rerorrsr—You surely think, then, Doctor, that this country will escape altogether? Dr. Morkis—-Oh, no; trom its migratory habits it 1s impossible to toll where the pestiience will locato itseli; but next year, or the year after, we will have it without the shadow of a doubt; and we cannot be too rigorous With our quarantine system.
