YOKOHAMA.

The race between the Richmond's dingy and the gig of the Marchesa-both 4-oared boats, came off this afternoon (16th), distance about a nautical miles. The start was effected by one of the officers of the Richmond, and the boats equines, is no easy task. The rain which fell

Provid- ing that the course remains a "fying" one, we prognosticate that for the first day's sport Mr. Forward cannot be possibly beaten

After the race between the boats' crews of the

Richmond and Marchesa on Thursday, in which the last named scored a decisive victory, a boat's crew of the Monocacy challenged the winners to pull over the same conrse, to be rowed in 5-oared gigs. This being accepted by the yachtsmen, the event came off this afternoon (18th) and again

Bill's Care Stewards Cup, whilst one of Mr. the Marchesa's crew scored a win. The course Yorke's pair will secure a second place, with was the same as on Thursday, from the lightship Revenge a good third. We are more doubtful to a boat moored near the onocacy, distance about the Maiden Stakes than any race through about a miles. Both boats were towed to the out the Meeting, but we select Major Hagstock's lightship, and were despatched by an officer. Wild Waiffers win, Mr. Fohkien's best for second, and we should like to see My. Nick run intothird place with: Sulphur or Brimstone. The Com- pradores Cup ought to be won by Mr. Bill's Pezzicato or Mr. St. Andrew's best, unless Presto, whose start is doubtful, upsets our arrangements; whilst Forest King is good for a place. For the Hack Stakes, Mr. Lancet's Creedmore is a steady old pony matched with the heavy weight of 12st, for the short balf mile, and can carry the weight as well as Pretension. The Stand Stakes will prob- ably be secured by Mr. Yorke's best, although not without a struggle, as there are four rather formidable ponies entered for this race. The Haekwan Cup may rest between Wild Waif and Stray Shot, and Mr. Bill's. Vivace, might secure a 3rd position. The Hongkong Cup shews six- teen entries consisting of nearly all the best ponies in the Meeting, and it would be arrogance upon our part to attempt to select a winner, when it is impossible to tell what will face the Starter. This race will be a good test as to the best **staying pony: especially as the "field" is pretty evenly weighted, with the exception of the winner of the Compradores Cup, who will carry a seven pounds penalty if he puts in an appearance to contest the event.

from the Monocacy. As on the previous day, the yachtsmen were the first to catch the water, and obtained a trilling start. After the crows had settled down, the Marchesa's men were pulling a strake of 43 to the minute to their apponcis' 38,-drawing steadily ahead, and leaving the donocacy's crew, foot by foot, although the latter spurted repeatedly in the most plucky and de- termined manner, but without being able to make any appreciable, difference in position of the two boats. When half the distance had been covered, the Marchesa's men, pulling well within themselves, and at the rate of 40 strokes per minute, were leading fully ten lengths, the Alonecacy's crew having slowed down to about 28 per minute. From this porind, the race was quite devoid of interest, the yachtsmen continu ing to increase their lead, and eventually winning by two minutes, finishing with a clean and well pulled stroke of 1 to the minute. The time occupied by the winning boat was 16 minutes. The race was accompanied by several steam launches with a numerous party of visitors.- Japan Herald.
