 In the same category with cutters In tin- mailer of draft, for nian.i or 

 the modern sloops already draw mart than cutters, le 

 the above letter shows how radically unfair ana absolutely untenable 

 is Hie custom ot sailing on length as a criterion. If allowing time on 

 a length basis had the slightest sense or logic. It Is evident Unit i wo 

 twenty-flve-foet boats should sail on equal ien»s, whether they hap- 

 pen to be dubbed sharpie, culler, sloop or anything else. That our 

 correspondent's objections to the match mentioned are perfectly 

 legitimate and sound no one will dispute orfluestlon hi his own mind 

 even for a moment. It IlltisLrales in Hie most simple and forcible 

 style the glaring stupidity and Impossibility of classing different 

 models by length, and, as no two sloops or schooners are alike, the 

 system can no more he applied with, equity to yachts q| the sane
