Queen-street, near the Court House, June 2nd, 1843. ;£ To ike Editor of the Southern Cross. '•W — * observed a letter in your paper of the 27th IO May last, signed David G. Smale, containing a .great deal about Gentlemen and Gentlemanly Conduct, with some few silly calculations and false assertions, for -whoever must have written it for' him must have been confoundedly ignorant of all the true ciicamatancea of the case. The simple facts are these, the prize won on the 5th January was £h, four of the Crew of the "Nautilus" entered her within 29., which was paid by Mr. Smale, now the prize (£5) shared by six persons would allow each 16s, 8d., consequently the four (Messrs. Coombs, Boadbent, Fulton,, and Malpas,) who paid 12s. each towards the f ntrance money, were entitled to 28s. 8d. each, Mr. D. G. JSmale, having paid 2s., was entitled to 18s. 8d., Mr. Merrektj his share of the prize only 16s 3d., which made the prize and entrance money to be recrived £7 10s. The manner in -which it should have been received at the time: Messrs. C. B. F. &M. at 28s. 8d. each £h 14 8 Mr. D G.

Sims' as part payment of the cap he wore that day, it appears to have slipped his memory, as also the materials of which they were all maue, I have been obliged to pay for, and it dees puzzle me (when I am credibly- informed that the man who was at work on the Gig received but one half crown from him ?) how he makes up the amount £3 for repairs and incidental expenses, but perhaps he may have calculated his board from the day he heard of the Regatta' until the day it was pulled. 7 "Well, Sir, the prise was'handed over to Mr. D. G. 8mafe by the. Stewards within half an hour after the race bad-been which instead of paying over to the parties the portion each was entitled to, he pocketed the whole," siLce which he has been frequently appliedto for •' a partition of the spoil';" he at first excused- himself "on "the score of not ( having, received theentrancemoney,' hearing of this I mentioned il .*<? .Mr* Webber, one of the Stewards, (not from evei iavingbcendejired to doe? by Mr. Smale;). who paid it immediately; lie wa.i t&a informed .that the eu'
