a YACHTING.|c& *The Livonia Sails the Columbia Over the Now York Yacht Club Course. Accidents and Disaster Befall the Columbia. The Livonia Wins After a Tough Race by Fifteen Minutes and Ten Seconds. The Columbia Reaches the Home Stake- boat in a Disabled Condition. Here we are, in the arc of a circle, on, the blue ‘expanse between the Staten Island woody ridge and the point of Owl's Head. A large fleet of steamboats, crowded to the tops of their funnels with black, moving particles; & Faft of small boats, with noisy boys puddling about tm an insane manner; score of yachts, schooners ‘and sloops, gayly caparisoncd as war horses for battle; in the dissance, at the gorge of the Nar- Tows, those three solid objects, Richmond, Hamil- ton and Lafayette, standing shadow-like, grim and wray, over the waters—all these are among the details of a picture which once seen may not be for- gotten when the day of @ yacht rage in New York harbor nas passed away. =~ Bank, or moving slowly, like winged birds in agate, | phate agce area dozen vessels bound outward fcr Liverpool, salle Mligg. for Plorida Keys.

The committee boat, with the flag of tne New York Yacbt Club, bearing the star and cross, is ever im the fore ground of the picture, tearing through the waters -bituer “afd thither, the questions and giving instructions to the yachts, and ordering the stray vessels to keep out of the way of the contestants.
