The Grand Union Regatta of the Perth Amboy Yacht Club took place yesterday on Raritan Bay, Gnd although it was a success 80 far as the num- ber of competing yachts was concerned, yet, owing to the absence of anything like @ good sail- ing breeze, there wag but ilttle excitement or even interest exhibited in the result of the vari- ous races, In fact, the Perth Amboy Club met with about the same kind of weather that, until thia season, has for so many years visited the New York Yacht Clab—viz., almost a dead calm. The great attraction in the whole affair centred in the Chi Psi and the Hitty MoGinn, for both yachts are very nearly matched tn size and have about an equal number of admirera, There has also existed au intense rivalry between tne pro- prietors of these craits, and as it became known that they had each backed their “ship” to win, their friends followed suit, until there were some thousands of dollars put up on the result, to ve decided by either one beating the other, frst ia to win, The regatta caused quite an excitement in the little town of Perth Amboy, the indabitants turning Out é¢m masse to witness the contests, There were also present slong the snore a large number o/ visitors from the outlying districts and from Now York, prominent among whom was the irrepressibic Frank Bates, Commodore of tho Long Isiand Yacht Clad, .

THE START, which was a flying one, was an example, as far as regards punctuality, Which all the yacht clubs would do wisely to follow, for at the hour ap- pointed the first signal gun was fired, a thing so unusual as to cause general comment among all the yachtsmea present. Toe yacats got away in the following order, EB. and very lignt:— G. Daviason Chi Psi.. the wind being S& 5S. It became apparent that the race throognout would ve vat & mere dritting affair, as i turned out to be, and any attempt to describe the move- ments of the yachts would be tedious and weary- ing in the extreme, The only remarks that can be made are that the Lula, although she won in her class by time allowarce, was badly satied thronghout and won the race more by luck than jodgment, Her antagonist who took second prize, the Fidget, also made agrave mistake on the second turm round the course, or sie must Rave beaten the Luia badly, The Chi Psi and McGinn were both well handled kept close together — ail through, finally passed the stake boat with Taking Into consideration the time of the Start the Bitty McGinm gained nine seconds on her aiverxary on actual time. Tals snows bow evenly the boats are matched, althongn it should be borne tn mind that tne Hitty McGinn would have to give the Oni Psi, on tims allowance 2m. 18148.

BOATING. THE ARGONAUTA RBEGATTA—-A MOST EXCITING FOUR-OAR RACE—A SUCCESSFUL DAY. The annual regatta of the Argonauta Rowing Association, held at Bergen Point, N. J., yester- Gay, Was in every particular & success. Hundreds of ladies and gentlemen were present, and the ‘water, calm and placid as 8 mirror, was dotted all over with pleasure boats of every kind, Tne races altogetber were good, and though one or two sight mishaps occurred the genera! interest was kept up throughout, ‘The first race was between FOUR-OARED GIOS.

With the view of affording amusement to the eltizens of Newark the Common Council of that city appropriated $400 for the purpose of provid- ing prizes to be competed for in arezatta open to tae State, It was originally tniended vo confine the races to the Newark clubs only, but as several of them did not desire to take part thercin {ft was decided to invite all tne clubs in New Jersey, The circulars were sent out by the Common Council Oonmmittee, of which Al derman Wiiliam M. Freeman was chairman, on June 24, and, notwithstanding the short time interveaing, quite a respectaple number of en- tries were received, and in two of the races the Starters were quite as numerous as the width of the river permitied. At @ committee meeting, held in the morning at the Continental Hotel, po- sitions Were drawn and all preliminaries arranged with the several contestants. Mt, Lef man, of the Newark Scullers, was objected to by several on the ground that the ciub did nos come under the wording of the invitation; Dut the matter was amicably settied by allowing him to row pending his furnishing satisfactory evidence to the committee of the organization of the ciub, The frst race was called for at two oclock, and he cannon was fred at that hour the two crews were on hand ready for the start, They were as follows :— Eureka Boat viud, of Newark—P.
