Gala Day for the Students of Trinity Col- lege and Their Friends. POTDOOR EXERCISES AND MANLY AMUSEMENTS, Lonpor, June 7, 1875. Our yachtemen have hada busy time of it of fate, no fewer than three important matches hav- ng vcen sated on ihe Thames during the past eck, Sor prizes amounting in the aggregate to Bpward of £540, or $2650, For once in the way we were javored by the accompaniments of @ bright sun and a stitt breeze—a rare combination on the Thames—ind, saving and excepting Tuesday's tengthy chapter of accidents, ali tne watches were fairly sailed out on toeir merits, THE ROYAL LONDON YAWL MATCH, The yawl match—uow wisely separated from the schooner match—of tne Royat London Yacht Ciub was sailed on Monaay laat, the dist ult, over a | pew course—viz., irom the Lower Hope round the Mouse light aud back toGravesend. This isa great improvement over the vid course from Gravesend round the Mouse or Nore lignts, which, ‘m the event of the wind being before the beam, mecessitated a disagreeable beat down the narrow reacn below Gravesend, which is always e®rowced with craft of late years, and more especially since the wonderful performances of Mr. Jessop’s fying Florinda, The much reviled rig has become a great favorite with nota Jew of cur racing yachtsmen, and there are one or tWo afluatia English waters that ara capable of tairly boiding vneir own against our crack cutters and schooners on their best point of saul- ing. So much 80, indeed, that owners of cutters are now crying out bitterly against the eld regn- lation waicn permite yawls sailing against cutters in a “mixed maten’’ to deduct one-fourth of their tonnage. Monday’s match, however, was not a success, numerteally, there being only four en- tries; but as these included the Fiorinda and Corisande there is little doubt that the reputation of this redoubtable pair deterred the rest from put- ting in an appearance, The meeting of this pair ‘Was looked forwara to with the greatest interest; for, though the Fiorinaa invariably beas the Cori- sande whenever they mot last season, the latter ‘Was reported to be greatly improved by ber win- Ver alterations, which cousisted of the addition of five tons o! lead to her keel and the substitution of fifteen tons of lead for tne same quantity ofiron Daliast. The Floriuda bas received a new suit of lower working canyas—not a very good fit by the Way—butin other respects she was unchanged, her owner having wisely concludea to “let well alone” and vot run tne risk of uslag “winter im- provements” whicn have so frequently rutaed so macy o/ our best yachts. THE ENTRIES. ‘The complete list of entries was as folows:— Yaoht. June allowances, 20 reconds per ton up to 100 tons and 10 seconds per ton over 100 lous, THE RACE. There was a strong breeze irom about east by morth, making it a dead beat down to the Mouse, and, as might be expected, the two liitle ones ‘Were soon “out of it,” and the race resolved itself Into & Match between the two oid rivals—tnoe Fiorinda and Corisande, The latter got a very good start, and, im addition to working lower canvas, set a gaff, izzen and jib-headed topsail, waile the Florinda set a smal! mizzen and big jib; but the latter seemingly dia yer more harm than good, as t nad the effect oi bringing her by the head, Al- ter making the Mucking light the Cortsande ‘weathered on and forereached the Florida im an Unmistakabie fashion, amd by the time they had brought the Nore abeam led her by quite fve min- utes.
