WHAT THEY THINK.— Three letters reached us from England last 

 week iu relation to the puerile clause in the America Cup deed, 

 claiming the right to select a yacht the morning of the race according 

 to the "weather. This clause should be wiped "out or the Cup once 

 more returned to the surviving donor. The clause is a disgrace to 

 those fathering it and an outrage upon American reputation for fair 

 play. Out with it. The likes was never seen in sporting annals. If 

 we can only retain the Cup by such technical chicanery, melt the pot 

 and sell it for what it will oriug. The clause is unworthy of a candy 

 sucking babe. Plain talk perhaps, but true as gospel.

THE INTERNATIONAL MATCH. 



THERE are signs of bustle, from the other side on the matter of the 

 m ternalionar match. A London despatch ot March 18 says that 

 Major Waller, treasurer of the American committee for arranging 

 an international shooting match, appeals for subscriptions from 

 volunteers, so that expense will bono obstacle tcf forming the best 

 team the country can produce. He invites qualified volunteers 

 desiring to enter tne team to apply curly, as the committee intend to 

 impose a thoroughly exhau i will commence at once 



He acknowledges subscriptions amounting to £190 



We may rest assured that there v, ii' 

 men to equip and supply the first tea 

 Volunteers that has ever left her .ho. ,. 



On this side there may be a great deal going on. but it is conducted 

 in a very quiet fashion. If the committee having charge of the 

 mailer imagine that the American team will come together' by some 

 aelf-aotJng process they are in mistake No fortuitous concourse of 

 atoms will do anything worthy against the determined band who will 

 visit us in September next. We have a great extern to cover und no 

 tune is io be lost. 



There is no end of friendly feeling toward the match, and with few 

 exceptions the members ot the National Guard are kindly disposed 

 toward it. The following letter will show the wording of one of 

 these offers of support:
