NEW YORK HERALD, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1878.—TRIP ———— COURTNEY AND HANLAN, Situation of Affairs at Mon- treal and Lachine. PROGRAMME FOR THE DAY. Both Men Anxious to Havéa Fair Race. THE COURSE AND THE CURRENT. oo MonrReaL, Sept. 24, 1378. I find that public interest grows apace here in staid old Montreal regarding the Jorthcoming single scull race between Charies E, Courtney aud Edward Han- Jan for the championship of America, The conimit- e of citizens appointed to raise the purse of $6,000 ere doing all in their power to make the race at La- chine on to-morrow week a memorable one tn the annals of boating on this continent Already it 1s announced that the prize purse for the winner is compieted or guaranteed by the citizens, and with it sum sufficient to enable the committee to success- fully carry out all the details consequent upon So important an event. This citizens’ com- mittee embraces the names of gentlemen well known throughout Canada for tneir public spiriteaness, and ag an evidence of that fact I cannot do better than give the readefs of the HERALD the full list, They are as foliows:—Sir Hugh Allan, chairman; Alexander MoGivbou, vico chairman; Arthur Rosg, secretury; Adum Darling, treasurer; C. J. Brydges, of the Intercolontal Railway; Joseph Hicksou, Grand trank Raiiway; Thomas White, ed- Ator of the Gazelle, and the oewiy-clected member of Parliament for the conservatives, who had a grand dipner given last nightiu bis honor; Colonel Frank A. Whitehead, Messrs, David Col- son, F. B, McNamee, C. P. Davidson, Q C.; R. H Southgate, H. E, Murray, W. &. Rentoul, D'Arcy Heawb, A. I. Hughes, secretary of tue Lachine Boat Club; A. J. Dawes, W. Stafford, A. D. Whitney, Seo- retary to the Harbor Commissioners; F, E. Hensham nod James Stuart, of the Montreai Herald. Sir Hugh has been indefatigable as chairman of the committee, and is well supported by bis vice, Mr. McGibbon, The committee have also been very for- tuuate in selecting Mr. Arthur Ress as their secretary. Upon this latter gentiemad the greater part of the lavor falls, as is always the case with a secretary, and if the race programme proves the success anticipated alarge share of the credit willbe dueto him, Mr. Hughes, in the dual position of # committeeman aud secretary of the boat club, has also incurred great re- sponsibility, which Le boars with modest equanimity, Both Mr, Ross und Mr, Hughes are bard at work, and co-operate with each otver as though they were ace customed to run together in double harness, THR PROJECTED ARRANGEMENTS, ‘Though the citizens’ committee and the officers of the Lachine Boat Ciub nave stilla great deai to.ao uring tho seven aays intervening between nowand ‘the day of the race the arrangemenis are in a fair state of progression, The course has already been mapped out and will vegin at a point about five hundred yards ‘above the whurt (wolch les at the head of the Lachine Capal) straight up the river for two and a bali miles, tue turuing buoys being placed on a line with the upper end of »’Arval Island. It is proposed to lay down « neavy line o: booms outside of theco' 0 trom Dixie’s island dwn to the starting pou order tua the force of the wind may be L:cken. above this line of booms the course will be protected by Dixie’s, Busby and D’Arval islands. li will bo doubt be remembered uw when the St. John crew raced at Lachine against Reniorth’s iyue crow, eight years ago, a line of caval bouts were used to sheer tue lower part of she bourse, but that experiment proved a failure because the jour oF five thvusand spectators on board the fivet iound great difficulty in getting usnore again.

Annual Pennant Regatta of the Atlantic Club AN UGLY SQUALL. Racing by the Empire and Providence Clubs. The Atlantic Yacht Club, of Brooklyn, LL, held their annual pennant regatta yesterday. It was the last important yachting event of the season in the barbor and much interest was centred in the result, This club has long been famous for its good luck on Yegatta days, and on this occasion thero was a sufll- eient variety of wind and weather to make it memora- bie, Fast travelling clouds in the early morning suggested tresh breezes later on, but at the starting hour there was only a light air to carry the boats through the Narrows, aud for a time it softened almost toacalm, Then it hardened for a while, with blue patches flying across the bay, making the boats perform very creditably, while they preseated a hand- some racing picture, Surpri were in store for the club as well. The schooner thought to be much the slowest of the three of her class engaged in the fight for the coveted tropty was a winner almost all day, and when asquall burst on the fleet near the finish of the race good judge ment and great pinck carried the Agnes across the line to victory, 1n the ciass for sloops of thirty- five feet and under forty-five feet, the sturdy Wine some made her mark as a crait to be cepended upon at acritical juncture. The squall which fept upon the yachts sent her over toa point that made every leoker-on bold his breath, but she nobly righted and suffered onty injury arising from being badiy knocked down, As a recompense jor the peril throagh which she passed, the pennant of that class, fell to her with lots of time to spare, STARTING. The judges’ boat, Cyclops, upon her arrival at the starting point off Bay Riage found the ‘ollowing yachts awaiting the signal to start:—Schooners— ‘Triton, Commodore Thayer; Agnes, Mr. L, A, Fish; Poerless, Mr. J. Roger Maxwell. Cabin sloops of forty-five feet and over—Dolphin, Mr. J. W. Cooper; Sadie, Mr. H. E, Colo, Cabin sloops of thirty-five feet avd under forty-five icet—Genia, Mr tT. P. Fis! Winsome, Cabin slgops under thirty-five feet—Nimbus, Mr. L. H. Bigiow. The course for schooners and ‘the larger cabin sloops was to the Southwi Spit buoy No. 83, thence to the lightship and buck home, going to the southward and westward of the beacon on Romer Shoal, The other sloops, with the exception of the Numbus, squared away for home ter rounding the mark boat buoy No 83g, o the westward of the beacon on the Kom T bus rounded at buoy No, 834 and then bad a straight flight back. ‘The latter had no competitor in ber clusé aud as a consequence ber performaues ia of little account, ‘The wind was about southwest, and the bouts were timed crossing the line in this order;—Do!- puin, Sadie, Agnes, Peerless, Triton, Nimbus, Genia and Winsome, The Atalanta, Orion and Imperia of the ciub also crossed the line, but their racing flugs were nu be main peak, and consequently dia not receive much attention.
