THE QUEEN'S CUP. First of the Contests ‘Sailed Over the Inside Course Yesterday. aa THE MADELEINE THE WINNER. She Beats the Countess of Dufferin 10m. 59s. GREAT GATHERING DOWN THE BAY. After considerable delay the first of the three races arranged to be led between the yacht Countess of Dufferin, of the Royal Canadian Yacht Club, and the yacht Madeleine, of the New York Yacht Club, for the Queen’s Cup, won by the America, in 1851, was decided yesterday, and the Madeleine, as the defender of the challenge prize, scores one in her fayor. She whipped thestranger handsomely, although the race was keen and close. From the time the Cambria and Livonia crodsed the Atlantic, with the view of wresting the cup from tho present holders and failed, the New York Club bad received no challenges for it until this season, when unexpectedly the flourishing club in Montreal an. nounced that one of its representatives would visit our waters for the purpose of endeavoring to turn tho ta- bles on the American gachts and take home the prize. Very few of the yachtsmen hereabouts regarded tne Proposition of the slightest consequence, or as likely to achieve the end sought for or to interfere with their Teputation of owning tue fastest pleasure craft afloat. An good ume the Canadian challenger arrived, and her run to this port only mado the New York yachts- men more positive that the time bad not yet come {or them to be compelied to confess that they could no longer hold the cup 80 triumphantly won twenty-five years ago, The general appearance of the visitor aud her performance in the latter part of last month im the race around Brenton’s Reef Lightship, in which she took part, made them feel more confident than over that the successes of the past would be repeated and more glory surround the flag of their clab, Had the first race been sailed on the original day set instead of yesterday mo doubt the most sanguine ex- pectations of the New Yorkers would have been realized and the Countess of Duflerin “beaten hull down’? over any’ course, for she was then very rough, her canvas far from sativlactory and generally far from being in racing trim, But the postponement at the request of the represen- ative owner of the Countess, and the finding of good trends in this port, caused a great change in the Capa- wan; for she appeared at the starting point a slippery customer indeed, Her mainsail, lug foresail and light canvas were all new and made in New York, while she was provided with seven fvet more main boom, and her bottom was planed, sandpapered and pot-leaded, “wrinkles” that Major Gifford and his associates never dreamed of unul they had mixed with the ex- perts of this vicinity. Henco her war paint was fresh yesterday, and she a trifle dangerous to experienced eyes, The Madeleine, owned by Mr. John 8. Dickerson, a careful and enthusiastic yachts- mab, was selected by the Regatta Committee of the New York Club, aiter patient trials down the harbor, as tho yacht to defend the prize against the challenger. Immediately after her return from the eastward ten days ago, where she had been cruising as the flagship of the Brooklyn Yacht Club squadron—tnen on its an- nual cruisc—the Madeleine was taken to Greenwich, Conn., and there putin shape for the job before her. {twas well done. Her sails were thoroughly repaired by Mr. John Sawyer, new ropes supplied where needed, her copper scoured bright and coated with sperm oil and tallow, While above the copper her hull was pot leaded. Thus in complete racing shape, these con- testants commenced the struggle. The dimensions of the respective craft, the resulwof official measurement miade recently, are as follows:— THE RACING ORAPT, ° Madeleine. Countess of Dufferin, \ "Feet.

Auce was not considered, THE RACING CREWS. Not only were the competing yachts well prepared for the great contest, but each was manned with picked men and carried shrewd pilots. In this respect the Countess had the services of Sam Greenwood, who bandied sails, while William Ellsworth was oi deck as pilot, the yacht being satied by her captain, Alexander Cuthbert, The crew was selected from among the #inart hands about Bayonne and Port Richmond, Tho Madeleins was sailed by Captain Williams, but he had Bevnett, the old mate of the yacht when owned by ex- Commodore Vooruies, with him, while Dave Sned ker was pilot, and exira men were shipped from among the Bay Ridge sailors Each was well provided im this wise aud Were not caught napping. COURSE AND SAILING REGULATIONS. ‘The regutar inside club regatta course was mutually agreed upon for the rst race; but that there should be no misunderstanding the Regatta Committee handed each other before the start the following written directions *— ‘The start will be a flying one, and the time ‘of each yacht will be taken as she 8 between the New York Yacht Ciub House, Sta Statea Isiana, and the judges’ steamer, the W.

U0 shore there were thousanus of spec- tators “hile the club house balconies were thrunged by scorce of gentlemen and ladies, all anxious aud ex- cited.

The Madeleine worked Gravesend Bay to perfec- tion. She shot along the land like a_ race horse, and with excellent’ judgment off and on, found tho eddy. tide there’ of great service. Finally, the Countess, weli down to Dix Island, roeiving her competitor's great advantage, followod example; but it was too late, as when ‘off Coney Isiand Point the Madeleine was fully a mile the best of it, 1t was now a long stretch tor the buoy, and the Madeleine fairly flew.over the water, not against it, and many expressed the opinion that “though the race 18 not ended it is foretold;” but off the land at Coney Island the Jibtopsail of the Countess did good work, and she came tlying along, pointing weil, and going through the water as fast as the other and with as littic fuss, Her sails set flat as adrumbead, and, standing over to the westward to make buoy No. 10, she acquit ted herself in admiravie style. In this ‘stretch she plainly demonstrated to the America, Rambler and Wanderer that she was not very slow in beating to windward, for she had them all astern, making those owners who had predicted that they would head her half an hour to the Spit feel decidedly unpleasant, At this juncture the stranger Was getting some of the praise which was duc her ‘or admirable sailing qualities, and there were many who said that “even now the Madeleine can't maka any mistake and win.” At Lh. 10m, the latter hauled up to fetch the Spit buoy, and the yachts passed this mark as follows:— gvaeors S00T 0. 10, H, M.

Not much, yet very encouraging under the circumstances, Mak: ing another tach tw weather buoy No. 84, the Made Jeine passed it at Lh. 26m. 258, and the Countess at Ib, 331 0s. The latter took in her jibtopsail at 1h, 37m., when merry was the work to fetch out by the point of the Hook. The wind was now east-southeast, and it was a long leg and a short leg to the hghtship. At 1b. 54m. the Countess tacked inshore, and three minutes later the Madeleine followed At 2h. 10m. both stood off shore, and here the wind was lighter, when the Countess lessened the Both stood well over to the eastward to fetch the lightsiip, the Madeicine at least a mile too far, and though she made a fair wind far it the Countess came about much sooner and gained much by the betier Judgment, At 2h. 4lm, the Made- leine hauled up tor the outer beacon, aud while gomg in stays eet, inatwinkling, a square headed foretop sail, and so neatly was this dono a huzza invoiuntar- ily went up trom the judges’ steamer, Excellent man- agement had marked the Madeleine's peopl dd this continued, not a mistake beg made by them during theday.

In great contrast was the Countess in sending her light canvas aloft. Some thing was wrong with her staysail, and setting her balloon jib om the flying jibstay they botched the job badly. “All ths time ‘the Madleloine was getting even on that 2m. 328. gained om her, and she walked off on the run like aquurter horse, and the spectators knew that she could not be cuught, and she Was-now At the lightship the gathering of steamboats and the noise of their whistles made a bed- Jam, while the general contusion was added to by the cutter Grant xiving each contestaut a gun, The America, which started but little astern of the racers, and going over the course as fist as she coula, doubt, turned the lightship at 3b. 10m. 40s., thus showing that she was “laid out” to the extent of just 14m. 078, by the Countess in the beat to windward, OW the Hightands the Wanderer, with her big square header, gave the Madeleine ‘a trial, but dropped her before reaching the point of the Hook, seemingly periectly satisfied.

VINEYARD, New York, August 11, 1876. To tHe Epitor or tax Heratn:— The late regatta at Saratoga should teach the Ameri- can sporting world several important lessons. That it was a great success in the fine racing afforded no one can deny, but how much greater a success might it have been had the conditions been different? Such races as those we have just seen should be rowed at that time of year in which the men can be inthe finest condition, und I affirm that it is impossivle for a man to be at his best or do his best in such weather as that which wo havo lately experienced, With the thermometer at ninety a man does not want to tram to bring down his weight, and if he does train he runs the fat off bis body at such a preposterous rate-that he is loft ary and bard and like an old dried out fiddiestring, Hable to snap at any moment, and for evidence I refer to the late regatta, There was not a crew or man started but could have gone the whole course had it been in the cool of a May or October morning, jostead of which in nearly every race there was some crew or rf dropped out before the finish, The English Unf érsities, one of the greatest ana hardest races, is ro@ed in March or April, but English rowing 18 no guide to American in this respect, tor their sum- mer is nothing to ours. The human body, like any other machine, requires oil to make it work easy aud well, and aman cannot tram in such weather as this und keep any fat on his body. Now tor another lesson. I bave referred to the Ox- ford-Cambridge race. It is believed that at the race last spring, 590,000 speetators were present. What a spur to fine rowing! Ot course it Was only London that could pour outsoch a crowd, and itis oniy New York that can pour out such acrowd us cau do honor to such racing as we bave just had, and { may say to. the Col- lege Kegatta also, lf men can row on Saratoga Lake they can row on the Hudson River, At any point for twenty miles above Hoboken, on the western side, may be found @ toree’ mile straightaway course. have rowed over it in, and have found better water thei on the Harlem River—shel from the winds and th the Pall View of @ face As bo Other course could afford. It may b@mrged that the Hudson bas tides and is a busy river. Look at the Thames, where the water rises und fails twelve to sixteen feet every twelve hours; and is not it abusy river? Aud yet they have fine races there. At any point just above New York, take the western bank of the Hudson, atthe top of the flood tide, and you have athree or four mile course as straight asa dio and as fine as anything in tors State. Hold the great races there at the right time, and such acrowd would go ont and sach an interest be awakened as would gindden the heart of every rowmg man, With your leave, M tor, I would invite discussion on the sub. Jeet, especially trom those who know the courses I reier to. Youra, respectiully, TA. FP.
