THE OCBAX YACHT RACE.
The Cambria's Triumph-English Ja
Dilation-The Arrivai and Reception
at New York.
The defeat of the Dauntless by the Cambria
across the ocean, though only by an hour and
forty-two minutes, she having made the voy?
age in twenty-three days, five hours and seven?
teen minutes, has created great enthusiasm
among the British residents of New York, and
we learn by cable telegrams that the news was
received in England with great rejoicing, the
event being regarded as a national triumph. A
condensed but comprehensive account of the
race and its result was given on Saturday,
but there are some details concerning it which,
on account of the International character
given lt by the press, deserve further notice.
The New York papers give animated descrip?
tions of the arrival of the contestants and
their reception, from which we take the fol?
lowing:
THE VICTOR'S APPEARANCE.
; The Cambria's appearance, as she approach?
ed the Sandy Hook lightship, was magnifi?
cent In the extreme. She had everything set
alow anda! oft, notwithstanding the stiff easter?
ly wind, and was half burled la the loam which
enveloped her bows. Her crew were all neat?
ly dressed, exactly alike, with red caps, blue
Jackets and white pants, and her officers were
all In uniform.
The Cambria wes commanded by Captain
Tannock, sn officer of great experience in the
European trade, and who has acquired a repu-'
tallon for Bhort passages across the Alantlc
fully equal to that of the well known captain of j
I the Dauntless.
TBK DAUNTLESS KIOHTKP.
As the May Catherine ran in towards the
bar, soother yacht was seen lo the offing,
which waa at once identified as the Dauntless,
and the glad news was communicated to the
yatchs Sylvia and Tarollnta, which were met
when near Staten Island, and they at once
crowded all sall to run ont and meet her, as
did also the quarantine steamer Andrew
Fletcher and several other steamers.
THE CAMBRIA'S RECEPTION.
A .'more animated scene cannot be imagin
? ed than that presented ia the Narrows on the
arrival of the Cambria. A large number of |
the yachts of the New York clubs were in
walting, besides others belonging to the Atlan
- tlc and Brooklyn clubs, and as the Cambria
sailed proudly through the Narrows they fired
their guns and dipped their flags in her honor,
and saluted her with cheers The many steam?
ers passing- blew their whistles, while the
shipping .in the bay was gay ly decorated with
bunting. As the Cambria rounded-to off the
club-house the flag of the Royal Harwich
Yacht Clnb was set at the flagstaff of the New
York club-house, above that of the regular
flag of the clnb, in graceful acknowledgment
of the Cambria's victory. The shores ol
Staten Island were lined with spectators, who
cheered .loudly as she dropped her anchor.
Her sails'were soon snuggly lulled by her gal?
lant crew, and as she lay at anchor with her J
ropes-all hauled taut and guy ly dressed out ;
with flags her beautiful appearance elicited ex
{iresslons of admiration from all who saw her.
inmediately ofter anchoring the Cambria was
boarded by the officers of the New York Yacht
Club, who warmly welcomed Mr. Ashbury, and
congratulated him upon his victory. The
yacht, although somewhat in confusion neces?
sarily consequent upon her recent arrival,
looked clean and neat, and showed little trace
of the severe ordeal she has no doubt under?
gone.
THE DAUNTLESS ARRI7ES.
In a little over an hour after the arrival ot
the Cambria the dauntless was seen coming
through the Narrows, attended, as had been
her competitor, by a large crowd of sister
yachts. As she approached the Cambria the
officers of the latter ordered their men to man
the rigging, wi,ich they did in true inan-ol
war style, one man at each mast ascending to
the very summit of her loug topmasts, aud
others standing in the eros?tress; hand in
hand, while the rest of the crew were strung
np and down her rigging; and, as the Daunt- J
less passed by, they gave her three rousing
cheers, which were as heartily returned by the
crew of the beaten yac it. The enthusiasm on
the arrival of the Dauntless exceeded even
that which greeted the Cambria, and from
every attendant yacht gum. were fired and
Hags dipped In her honor. As soon as her
anchor was down she was boarded by a host of
the iriends of Mr. Bennett and or Captain Sam?
uels, who welcomed them back, and while
they Bympathlzeu with them in their defeat,
congratulated them upon the closeness of the
Stun WhlCh b y gave lhe vlclory t0
CAPTAIN SAKUKLS'S ETATEMBNT.
Captain Samuels says that ia coming the
IM&3??S* K6 on,y flowed a course
which experience bas generally proved to be
the best and that which Maury's InvesUm
??" SELESES? 101)6 toe favorable at
this period of the year. That the English cap-1
tain, knowing that the Dauntless was the fast?
est boat, knew that he should, bo beaten If he I
took the same course as she did, aud so fteer
ed a different .coarse and- trusted to luck,
which in this case befriended him. Captain
Samuels also said that his passage had been
more like a winter than a summer one, having
encountered a constant succession of gale's
ahead from the start.
THE VOYAGE.
The logs of both vessels showed a succession
of head and baffling winds, together with oc?
casional heavy seas. The log ot tbe Dauntless
shows that in addition to unfavorable winds,
she met with much ill-luck from which her
rival was exempt. When the Dauntless spoke
the pilot boat two days ago she was twelve
and one-hall hours,' good Balling, behind the
Cambria. She tacked to the southward, hoping
to take advantage of the southeasterly winds
which almost always prevail at this season of the
year, while the Cambria crept along the Long
Island shore, which turned out to be the bet?
ter course, although the choice exhibited the
less skill In seamanship. But by an extraordi?
nary turn of luck, the wind changed just in
the nick of time; a brisk breeze sprung
np from the northeast and waited the Eng?
lish yacht down to the lightship in
gallant style, just ah ead of her rival. The Daunt?
less had already gained on her competitor
eleven hours In two days, and had it not been
tor this sudden gust of wind from the northeast,
w hi cl: died away almost as soon as the race
was ended, she would bave beaten the Cam?
bria by several hours. As it was, the Dauntless
reached the goal only one hour and nineteen
minutes behind her rival, and just as the Cam?
bria dropped anchor otf the Club Hoase at
Staten Island, the Dauntless was sighted from
the lightship off Sandy Hook. No one on
board either yacht had caught sight ot the
rival craft from the time they parted company
at the beginning of the race until they reached
the anchorage ground off Staten Island, and
when the Dauntless reached the lightship she
was Ignorant of the fact that the Cambria had
passed it before her.
THE CAMBRIA
is the property of Mr. J. Ashbury. She was
built by Mr. Ratsey, of Cowes, and was launch?
ed In May, 1868. The Cambria ls rated at 248
tons New York Yacht Club, but she ls generally
as 188 tons Thames measurement.
The Cambria was expressly designed for
speed, and every expedient that experience
could suggest was resorted to to insure that
object. Her dimensions are as follows: Length
from stem to stern post 108 feet: beam 21
feet; tonnage for racing 199 tons: draught of
water 12 feet. The dimensions ot her princi?
pal spare are: Mainmast (hounds to deck) 61
feet: foremast 56 feet 6 inches; main boom 61
feet; mam gaff 33 reet 9 inches; fore gaff 25
feet; bowsprit 35 ' "jj outside stem; maintop
mast 35 feet 6 inches; foretopmast 32 feet 3
inches; malntopsail yard 32 feet, and foretop
sail yard 29 feet. The construction of her hull
is faultless; her lines are beautifully fine, and
her symmetry ls unequalled by any vessel
afloat. She ls built of oak, with teak top sides
-scantling seven inches by four Inches. Her
interior fittings are ot polished wainscot oak,
and axe remarkable for their neatness and the
good taste displayed in their decorations.
Twenty-one tons of lead ballast were melted
and run into ber, In addition to which she has
about four tons of lead bolted on her keel.
THE DAUNTLESS,
owned by Mr. Jomes Cordoo Bennett, vice
commodore of the New York Yacht Club, was
built at MyBtic Bridge, Ct., by Mt ssrs. Forsyth
& More: n, and launched in June, 1866. She
was tuen known as tbe Hirondolle. Sometime
After the areal ocean conti st, i-i which the
Vw9ta, Pleotwiog and Henrietta were tbe com?
petitors, tbe owner of the last mentioned ves?
sel purchased the Hirondelle, wheo the nome
was cbaDged to that of the Dauntless, by
which name che is now knowo. Bavins: un?
dergone some alterafions she figured in the
races giveu ur der thc auspices of the New York
Yacht Ulub, especially on the annual cruises.
In tho winter of 1868 a contract was entered
into to rebuild the Danntleea. and tho work
was completed in May, 1869 The contraer ses
tort h that the vessel was to be le: gt h cn eel by
cutting away the bows about 88 ieet from the
tttem; tben, with new keel, stem, ceiling,
planking, decks, &c-, to rebuild the bows,
makins tho vessel nine feet longer in dj aft,
water line. Tbe keel was to be of (he best
white oa i. two pieces in depth, gradually di?
minishing forward to eirht inches sidiDg and
about eignteen inches in depth from rabbit,
lu fact, the vessel was made perfectly new
from stem to stern, altered and improved, the
model being changed. '1 he dimensions of her
?.ew repairs were almost tbe same vs formerly,
but they were greater in diameter. Her masts
are 89 and 90 feet respectively, topmasts 42
feet, main boom 73 feet, g. Us 34 and 32 feet,
and fabe spreads ?fider fall sail between six

THE FUTURE OF COTTON.
A Hopeful View.
[From the New York Bulletin.]
It is, perhaps, premature to estimate the
effect of the war now in progress in Europe
upon the American cotton market, bet the
question is one of deep interest and claims,
oven at this early day, tba attention of the
business community. It is (rue that the mere
,mnoun cement of a declaration of hostilities
between France and Prussia has bomewbat de?
pressed the price of cotton, but this depres?
sion is merely speculative, and ie attributable
mainly to the uncertainty which involves tho
immediate tature of the cotton trade. From
an impartial consideration of the probabilities,
however, we are lsd to the ooncusion tbat
there is nothing in the present or prospective
situation of affaira abroad io warrant tho pre?
diction of a decreased demand tor the Ameri?
can Btaple.
i As but little of lust y ear's cotton romains io
the hands cf the planters, the fate ot this un?
marketed remainder of the old crop is a matter
of small importance; and it is not improbable
thai the war will have terminated before any
considerable portion of the new crop shall be
ready for the market. Supposing, however,
'that it continues for a year or longer-which
io extremely improbable from the fact that
modern warfare is a costlj luxury even for
monarchs poB leasing vast m ii erial resources
and that neither Franco nor Prussia could
sutnd a continued war strain for the attain?
ments of such small and unsatisfactory results
as will be reached by it-we do not see any
reason to believe that the requirements of
European manufacturers will be lessened, since
the demand for cotton soods will be stimulated,
rather than diminished,in consequence. Annies
io time of war oonsnme. ?nolndiog the incur?
able waste and des true ti ono! quarermas'ers'
stores, rolly twice au much as arm i rs in time
of peace, and thia increased consumption must
be made gojd by au increased supply from the
principal sources of production. Among the
co:.Burnable necessities moBi largely wasted in
time of war, clo. hin- is -m importunt itotn,
and arAong the staples ot clothing in all civilis
' eil commnmtiea oottou bas as urned a fore?
most pluce. It ls true that armies are mostly
clothed ID woollen lubrica, but tho increased
consumption of this class of goods wilt at once
diminish tbe stock ou bund proportionately
increasing the prices of wearing miteriaiu;
and cottca goods, being cheaper and bettor
adapted to the general -vear thin linen or Bilk
fabrics, will naturally besought for by the
mass of consumers. Besides t bis, the effect of
war IB to stimulate consumption in all forms
La the abnormal condition of sooiety uodor
thees circumstances, the economies as well as
tho laws of na iona are apt to be for a time for?
gotten, and if a people are stinted in the
necessities and luxuries of life in time of war,
it is from necessity rather than ton choice.
? his fact finds ample illustration <n the era of
high handed speculation and wild extrava?
gance which prevailed during end after the
war in this country, aud the same phenomena
boa been observed io every nation quickened
into s. new and unnatural life by war which
did not close ita porte, shat off its sources of
supply, and throw ic wnolly upon its. own re?
sources. The demand for cotton fabrics was -
never greater in both North and Sont h than dur?
ing the war, and in both cases the difficulty was
to'obtain a sufficient supply even at the greatly
enhanced prices which such goods attained. It
is not hazard!OR too mach, therefore, to pre?
dict that, should the war DOW in progress in
Eurone assume the proporlions iv threatens,
we shall not suffer from a diminished demand
for our staple though the forced stoppage of
the British and Continental looms resulting
from a decreased consumption of these pro
duds.
Ii has neon feared by some that our cotton
trade would'suffer to a greater or less extent
from such difficulties as moy be experienced
in securing access to the principal European
markets. We do not. believe, however, that
any serious effects need he apprehended from
this cause. But a email proportion of tho
total of our cotton export has found its way
into the interior of Europe through the Ger?
man ports, andi the blockade of those ports,
even if made effectual, will not have an ap?
pr?ciable effect upon i he Continental cottoo
trade. The French ports, owing to the naval
weakness of Prussia, will of course remain
open, and the same is true of Oreat .Britain,
whether she is drawn into the Continental
complications or not. It is also probable that
the Spanish, Italian, Belgian and Du'ch pbrts
will remain open to cotton shippers under any
contingencies that can reasonably be antici?
pated. Wade it is quite probable, therefore,
that some of the former channels of the cot?
ton trade may be closed, there is no reason to
fear that the demand for our staple will de?
cline, although the advantage of any material
appreciation in its value will mainly accrue to
carriers tbrongh the inc- -jae in freights.
TSE NEW TOBK LIFE IE ENGLAND.
This company will have the merit of inaugu?
rating the greatest life insurance reform ever
effected in England. It proposes a stroke of
policy whioh will serve as a substitute it it does
not lead to efficient parliamentary legislation
cn this enbject. W. H. Beers, Eeg.., che able
and accomplished secretary, sailed for Eng?
land on the 14th ult., m the steamer Batavia.
On arriving at London he will proceed to con?
fer with the British Government with the view
of obtaining parliamentary sanction to deposit
with the Accountant General of the Court of j
Chancery, or other compete.it department, the
sum of bali a million dollars in United States
Government bonds for the special protection
of the company's British policy-holders. The
establishment of tbta precedent will, we pre?
