THE UNIVERSITY BOAT-RACE. (From the Deity News). Foe the mere lookers on the weather left nothing to be desired, and consequently there was as great a crowd assembled to see the race as had probably ever been assembled on any similar occasion. We ourselves started from a compara tively secluded pier at Nine Elms, but we found ou reaching the "dummy" a very considerable DUO] her of persons making for the George Peabody, the boat which had been engaged for the day by the Thames Subscription Club, but none of us hav ing the slightest idea of the honour which was in More for that much-favoured steamer. The pier man was a stanch Cantab, and had nailed his colours to his button-hole. He had always, he said, stood by Cambridge, and he wasn't going to desert her now, when every one said she wouldn't win. He was, however, not entirely without hope, as the water was gradually getting very " lumpy," and lumpy water was what Cambridge took delight in. He anathematised the steam tugs, which used smoky coals, and the " bWyboys,' , which he felt convinced would go right in the way of the Cam bridge boat, and Le beguiled his apprehensions by firing off a salute every five minutes, apropos of nothing in particular, out of a tremendous Arm strong of about four inches in length, " just to cheer 'eni up a bit," be said, when asked the rea son of this liberal expenditure of powder. The George Peabody called at Nine Elms punctually to her time, and having taken in the Vauxhall con tingent, ,tretched across to Pimlico Pier, where was assembled a much greater crowd, having in its midst his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales , of whose presence, however, every one in the barge seemed to be utterly unconscious. His Royal High ness's presence there was a happy accident. He bad, like a true English Prince, expressed an anxious wish to see the match, but unfortunately a drawing room was fixed for Saturday, at so early an hour that it seemed impossible to get to Putney and be back in time. In this dilemma, Mr. R. N. Phi lippa, of the Thames Subscription Club, took the matter in hand and accelerated all the arrange ments, including the start, by half an hour, sat up half the night writing letters to every one who bad a right to be acquainted with the cbauge of ar rangements, and finally was enabled to pledge himself that the Prince of Wales should be taken up to Putney, should see the match, and finally be landed at half-past twelve o'clock in Hammersmith, whence his royal highness could drive to Buck ingham-palace in ample time for the drawing-room. In the two points which depended on himself Mr. Philippi was triumphantly successful ; the heir apparent was taken to Putney in good time, and with equal punctuality was subsequently landed on liammersinith-bridge ; but his royal highness had but a very imperfect view of the race, for the fuligi nous tugs which had so much excited the ire of the piermau at the Elms, rushed right across the bows of the George Peabody the moment the boats started, and from that time until we got to Mortlake we could see little a-heal except smoke, and if we looked at the boat in which the umpire bad taken his stand, we could perceive that he was placed iu an admirable position to secure impar tiality of decision, as he was kept in perfect ignor ance of the doings on either side. But the voyage up to Putney was pleasant enough. His royal highness stood on the fore part of the vessel, not however, separated from the rest of the passengers by any harrier more stringent than their own sense of propriety, and he soon relieved many an anxious mind on board the little steamer by lighting up his cigar, and thus establishing a precedent which soon resulted iu a general illumination. His royal highnesa was accouipasied by Prince John of Glucksburg, General Knollys, Colonel Keppel, and one or two other gentlemen, and chatted freely with the surroundiug company. The committee of the Thames Club were severally presented, at the prince's desire, by the Hon. Mr. the chairman, and Mr. Philippe was specially thanked fur his exertions iu accelerating the arrangements so as not to interfere with the drawing-room. Then the royal standard was run up amidships, and the surrounding steam squadron now being aware that the George Peabody had become a royal galley, the result was that much care and order was observed during the remaiuder of the voyage. The sun had now come out decisively, and we could see the banks of the river on either side crowded with spectators. Men on horseback rode rapidly along the eater's edge regardless of consequences to the runners ; and we could see one of those rash gentlemen tossed by his horse right into the river, but without any result more disagreeable than a good ducking, which he richly deserved. Hammersmith Suspension-bridge was covered by what might well be called an appalling crowd, when we remember its peculiar structure and the terrible accident of the Bridge of Angers when similarly loaded. The roadway, the footway, the chains and the buttresses, were all black with people, and if anything bad given way we should have ad a destruction of life quite equal to the recent Sheffield catastrophe. The crowd cheered lustily as the George Peabody strained under, and we passed on to the narrower stream anti more picturesque banks which lead up to Mortlase. The bishop's grounds,on the Middlesex side, were studded with select and privileged groups, but on the opposite bank the crowd became more and more dense as we approached the scene of action. It is needless to say that tranquil Putney exhi bited an Cie abnormal vivacity which might have been expected from a village which only wakes up once or twice a year, or that the " Star aud Gar ter " seemNi to be doing a famous stroke of business. The Cambridge men had secured this famous and con,picuous hostelry, whilst the Oxonians were stowed away in another inn up a street in Putney, where nothitg could be seen of theni, until at last they rowed up to the starting point. The scene at this point at this time Wilk. exceedingly gay and animated, and drew more than one expression of admiration from the Prince of Wales. The balconies of the Star and Garter were crowded with company of the Cambridge party all decked in favours of centleat. hiue ; and at the wharf was a perfect swarm of boats—coatse boats, wateruien's boats, punts, a. and even "Jingles" of low degree, in many : w:,ich latter were single instrumentalists, who ',laved up airs of anticipated triumph on cracked corect,, wheezy clarinets, and in one case j a terrific set of bagpipes. There was cheering, some sl:4lit swearing, great tiring off of small ordnance, volumes of smoke from the bated "tugs," and unp::::ing obstinacy in the navigation of the obstructive " Billyboys." It was, in fact, liberty ball on Cie water, and the presence of the their Apparent on her fore deck did not secure for the George Peabody any exemption from the plea,sut miseries that beret her neighbours. But we did not come to admire the &unmated tableau, but to see the race, and accordingly every eye peei-d arough the smoke to catch a glimpse of the coh;c::ilin4 boats as they came out from their mooring-. Cambridge was brat on the ground, and preens*, to casting off guernseys and flinging away caps the crew took a little paddle down stream, and iu ci -:ng we regret to add, °tiered grounds for au i::.farourable augury of the future contest. There wa, a slight tendency to crab-catching, a wahliiin of the boat iu the water, and au indirect ness tit motion which did not look exactly like the perfection of drill. Amateurs looked grave, said began to Inquire how it was that Cambridge could not get up screw equal to Oxford. Some said the men were too linsvy--others, that they were not " trimir,d ;" some said that the day was too hue for the Cambridge quality ; and one hardy specu lator affirmed that it was the mathematic* that took the pluck and spirit out of the men. Then Oxford won the toes Oxford always wins the toss, at least Las done so for the last four years, and in "electing the Middlesex aide bad a double advantage; the boat had a clear passage before it, and was immediately under the eye of the Prince of Wales, who it was hoped would now have a hue view of the race. The gun was fired, the boats took their places, and the rowers took edf their guernseys alai threw away their caps. ' Cambridge performed this preliminary operation Wail immense energy, and each rower flung his cap THB - rantras o )-MetiDAY EVENINS, MARCIE 21; - 1864:7!7 down with the air of a man who meant to win the race or perish in the attempt. Oxford took the matter much more coolly. The men in their dark blue frocks looked exactly like a crack man-of-war's crew, and there was nothing in their looks to belie the illusion. They were bronzed, hirsute, and manly, and when they at lea t bared their arms, displayed bicepsand triceps and del-' toid and forearm in a high state of training sod development They did not condescend to fling away their caps until the very last moment, and from this it was inferred that they did not see anything in the coming struggle to justify extra ordinary excitement. The start on both aides was perfect, just like two first-rate four-in hands of the old coaching days, when the team went off at once into • clean ten mile trot, without any previous prancing. The illustrious passengers on board the George Peabody prepared for a fine treat but alas. for human, even royal expectations, the moment the boats were off, the whole steam fleet, tugs and all, recklessly converged in their wake, and in a moment there was nothing but universal bump, smoke, alarm, and c.mfusion. Fenders were flying about in every direction, captains were dancing wild corroberies on their several paddle boxes, the hateful t" tugs" belched fresh volumes of smoke at every collision, as if to puff away all obstacles, and the result was that the George Peabody soon found herself bringing up the rear of au imposing fleet, with the umpire boat for a companion in misfortune, and nothing in sight ahead but the steam fleet and the smoke. One thing, however, must be admitted for the ad vance squadron, they shouted the vicissitudes of the race for the information of the rear guard, and in this way we were not long before we heard the news, ominous for Cambridge, of " Oxford a hundred yards ahead." This, however, was an lion, as we afterwards found that Cam befiltleirksept breast up for a considerable distance, that at " Craven-cottage" Oxford was scarcely a length clear, which was increased to four lengths as the boats shot under Hammersmith-bridge amid the shouts of ten thousand spectators. The greater rapidity and regularity of stroke which Oxford possessed now began to tell tremendously, and the result was that the boat reached the winning post about half a minute sooner than its plucky an tagonist, which although thus beaten by Oxford, was still game to beat anything else in the world. The steam squadron, fifteen vessels in all, now drew up in one line right across the river, and exhibited • tremendous show of human heads, the owners of which seemed now foe the first time to remember that the Prince of Wales was amongst them, and began to cheer vociferously for his Royal Highness. The George Peabody passed a short distance up stream to where the lately contend ing crews were laying on their oars close to the Middlesex shore, when his Royal Highness cour teously saluted both crews, an attention which, we need scarcely add, was must loyally sod fervently responded to. It was the first time that the heir apparent to the Crcwn bad been present at a University boat race, and every one seemed to be much impressed with the interesting character of the incident The vast multi tude shouted again and again for the Prince, for the winners, and more vociferously still, for the loosers, who bore their defeat with smiling equanimity. It was now that Mr. Philippe once more appeared epos the scene, took the com mand of the George Peabody, and peremptorily orde-ed "'Bout ship" for the return voyage. The lately contending boats started first in the same direction, and au opportunity was thus given to the Prince of seeing them in action, a thing which his Royal Highness hat been unable to do during the race. The boats looked beautiful, the rowers rowed splendidly, without however contending, and if we were not sure that Oxford had actually won it would now have been a nice point to decide which of the two crews seemed moat capable of winning. There was not the slightest symptom of fatigue or distress in either, and they darted away through the water like dolphins, resting however now and then on their oars to allow the Prince to pass, and in this way the disappointments of the race were amply compensated. Finally, and precisely to the stroke of half-past 12, the royal galley drew up alongside the dummy at Hammersmith, and the Prince of Wales and party landed amid tremen dous cheers. His Royal Highness was escorted on shore by Mr. Denman, Alderman Rose, Mr. R. N. Philippe, and the other members of the Thames Club Committee, and at parting his Royal Highness orce more expressed his thanks to Mr. Philipps and the committee for the exertions by means of which they had advanced the time of the race so as not to interfere with the drawl i ng room.

Selby, at the New Royalty, will also pro duce a new extravagaus by the woe author, called The Maid and What's his Name, or the Wanton at the Wh-et, with • new low comedian. The Adelphi will rely upon Leah with new scenery, and its stack farces ; the Strand will not change its bill. except to introduce • new come dietta called A Host for a Husband ; at the St. James's Mrs. Howard Paul will probably appear in • new litalesque version of Fro Diaroto ; the Princess's will produce • new farce by Mr. Maddisoo Morton, called Draarinproonts, Second-floor, and Attics; at the Lyceum there will be no dear, except in the revival of an old farce (A Deo after the Pair), and the return of Mr. Frchter after his late severe accident ; and the Olympia will probably not alter its programme, unless to introduce the burlesque " morality" prepared last Christmas by Mr. Tom Taylor. The minor theatres are all active ; and while the Surrey will put forth the attraction of a new melodrama with Mr. Anderson in the chief character, Sidle?. Wells will open its doors with an English opera company. Asian's promises • new drama with extraordinary "effects. ' and the Victoria • new play by Mr. Stirling Coyne, with Madame Celeste as the heroine. The arcuate, music-balls, and entertainers will all put forward special claims to public support, and the Crystal Palace will do its best to attract many thousands. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

Tai ALLWED PIRACY IN CON NiCTION WITH TEI HIIIPJObLeH L GESKITT.—At the South Lancashire amine on Saturday, Mr. Littler, barrister, again asked Mr. Justice Wince' opinion in this case, sod relative to the granting of a writ of habeas corpus to bring up the three men now in the main bridewell at Liverpool on a remaaded charge of piracy in conoectiou with the ship Joseph Gerrity. His lordship now said that be had looked into theme, sad editorialised a very strong opinion upon it. It appeared to him, and no doubt the magistrate would take the same view, that this was a case in which it would be an abuse that the men should be given over to probable doom without their having an opportunity of taking the opioiou of the superior courts. The ptiociple, of coons, upon which the distinction between pirates and belligerents was based, was a very well known and simple one, but io this ease he certainly thought it would be highly improper for any magistrate to give up the men without consulting the superior courts, and he felt cooficient that Mr. Raffles, the stipendiary magistrate of Liverpool, who would ad indicate in this came, would not do so. Mr. Litider said, from what he knew of Mr. Raffles, be was quite satisfied with this expression of opinion by his lordship.

This was, in =my respects, a very singular use. In 1841, Mr. Cloves wedded Harriet Emily Geraldine Terry ; and he lived with her for about a couple of vein at Walvorth and Bennington. Ha then attempted, though without success, to have the marriage declared null, on the ground that it had been procured by fraud. Afterwards, the respondent sued him in the Arches Court for the restitution of her conjugal rights. He defended the case, filed re criminatory pleas, and obtained a divoros i °rusk et thoro, on the ground of adultery. In 1846, under the name of Miss Jones, the respondent contracted a marriage de facto with a person of property named Morris. After cohabiting with him for some time she was separated from this gut's man likewise ; sad Mr. Morris found himself sued by a great number of persons for goods supplied, as was illegal to his wife. She vu also taken before the Hertford magistrates on a charge of forging his name to a bill of exchange for 1,50 W. A friend of Mr. Cloves, reading re ports of some of these proceedings in the newspapers, ad vised Mr. Cloves to file his petition, a step which he bad omitted to take sooner, not being aware that the court could give him any further relief. The petitiours cue having been proved by a person named Pearce, who had been butler to the petitioner's father, and who had been present at the trials referred to, The matter vu ordered to stand over until the fall court had given its decision upon a question now pending before it, as to what constituted unreasonable delay. TUCKER r. TUCKER AND BROWN. Dr. Wambey appeared for the petitioner . This was the nils of • lestbervidler for a divorce, on the ground of his wife's adultery with a shoemaker and post man. The marriage had taken place in 1.%43, and the sepa ration in 1861. Sap then the respondent had ti • child, of which she confined that the co.respoodest was the father. Decree nisi. GOODIE' V.

HOME CIRCUIT.—MAIDerosz, 2.lAscii 19. _ (Before the Lord Ode! Bar") Darid Rabb, au aged roan, with a white beard and whiskers, surrendered to take his trial upon an indictment which charged him with a misdemeanour In having unlaw fully taken • girl named Amelia Pollard, under sixteen years of age, from the custody of her parents, without their con sent. Mr. J. F. Smith was counsel for the prosecution end Mr. Ribtoit for the deluxe. The case from its nature, of course does not admit of the @ridicule being given in de tail, but the principal facts ap peared to be them :—The defendant resides at Rochester, and was reputed to be • person of some property, but be lived in • very niggardly way, and kept no servant. The parents of the girl in questioo, who, it seems, is at present only fifteen years old, also reside at Roe:leiter, and she had been in service, and there was no doubt that she had been in the habit of associating with loose girls, and had not cooducted herself with very great propriety previous to the transaction. According to her evidence, the defendant had repeatedly importuned her to come to his hones, and she mid that at length, on the P.7th of December last, which was Sunday, she represented that she was going to a Sunday school : but, instead of doing this, she went to the de feedant's house, and he promised that if she would remain with him he would give her • silk deem and some money, and she should not do any work, and he would also leave her 1001. in his will. She represented that is consequence of these promisee dm consented to remain ; and she and the defendant slept together that sight, and she continued with him for nearly • month, when her father and mother found out where she was, and took her away. It appeared in the course of thecase that the prosecutris had repeatedly gone to the house of the defendant at • late hour at night, and that he had charged her with robbing him, and the evidence dis closed • most disgusting scene of profligacy and immorality. Mr. Ribton, io addressing the jury for the defence, said be should not attempt to palliate the conduct of the defer.. dant, who at his time of life ought to have known better than to act in such a disgusting and profligate manner ; but he contended that it would be monstrous to convict him upon the charge contained in this iotlictment, when it was abundantly clear that the prosecutru in the first instance voluntarily went to his house, and that a great deal of the testimony she had given could not be relied on. The Chief Baron having summed up, the jury ',Herd to deliberate upon their verdict, and alter being out of court for more than an hour they came beck and said that there was DO chimes of their sgreeing. His lordship, upon this, said he should take it upon him self to discharge them from giving a verdict; and this was done, sod the defendant was liberated. Ro'bort Larye, • child seven years old, was celled upon to surrender and take his trial upon a charge of having felo niously end maliciously set fire to a wheat stack. The poor little fellow came into court crying, aid when he was placed in the dock and the charge we read to him. sod be was asked to plaid, he replied, " I did not do it," and then asked whether his mother was there. The Chief Baron appeared astonished at seeing a child of such an eppearance charged with so serious an offence, and he inquired how old be was. He was informed that he warn just seven. The statement appeared to create quite a sensition in the court. His lordship said he could not understand how a charge of this deecription came to be preferred against such a child, and if he bad been wily a few months younger the law would not bare permitted it to be done. He added that be should be glad to be informed whether it was seriously in tended to go on with the prosecution. His lordship was informed that counsel had been retained to prosecute.. . . . - 6hortly afterwards, Mr. Barrow, to whom it appeared a brief bad been given in thecae., came into court, and said he should not offer say evideoos in support of the charge. A verdict of Irot Guilty was emsequently taken, and the poor little fellow was given up to his mother. Serjeaat Ballistics sat in the grand jury room on Friday, and tried several prisoners, and the very able and careful manner in which he performed the judicial functions ap. paired to give great satisfaction to those who witnessed it. The commission for the county of Russet will be opened today iMooday), at Lewes. The gaol calendar is very heavy nurrerially, but sow of the MOB appear to be of • heinous character. It I also expiated that the caw list will be heavy. THE POLICE COURTS.

W. and H. P. Sharp the solicitor, to the Huainan Embassy, conducted the prose eation ; Mr. Levarson appeared for Mr. Forster ; and Mr. Ricketts defended Mr. Bernises _ Mr. Poised at great length explained the cirearestseeas relating to the abstraction of the bonds from the Tregaury at Warsaw, and the manner in which they were traced to the posemeirms of the primmers. The particulars of the moms proosediag at the court must be fresh in the memory of our readers. Mr. Bickette objected to the magistrate's jurisdiction, sbat after some discussion, at the request of Mr. Levinson, withdrew his objection. Alderman Begley—The object of the summons was to call on them parties to account for their popoeuion of these hoods, bat if an objection is taken to the jurisdiction there is an end to the ease._ Mr. Lmersoe—l do mot object to the jeriediction.

Lewis, Jae. of Lewis and Lewis, Ely - plies, It will be remembered that the prisoner wore brought up originally on the let February, when he was remanded for further examination, and in the interval he cut his throat in prison. From the injury so inflicted on himself he ma, until now, unable to be removed to the ,our t Whoa placed in the dock the reverend • appeared to be suffering from extreme debility. • was deadly pale, and could with difficulty sustain himself by leaning upon the bar. He was, therefore., accommodated with • seat in the dock. The wounds in his neck were comealed by linen handiest Mr. Lewis stated that the prisoner was formerly a cunt!, to the Rev. William George Jenii, incumbent of East Monkey. On the death of that gentleman the prisoner's curacy cowed. Subsequently he bad written to various persona representing that be wee in bad health and in great distreM, and, in fact, had beau living on the charitable outributions thus ob- Seised. Amongst ahem he bad written to Mr. Ford, • prebendary of Exeter, residing at Torquay, to whom, in addition to asking charity for himself, he represented that Mrs. Jervis, the widow of his late principal, was in great distress. Mr. Ford forwarded to the prisoner a cheque for 51. for himself, and another to be handed over to Mrs. Jervis. The prisoner, however, had appro priated the latter cheque, and in order to pt it cashed he forged the name of Mrs. Jervis as an indorsement It would also appear that the prisoner had been twice io custody for felony, once for stealing • watch and once for stealing plate. Evidence having been taken in support of the charge, the prisoner admitted that he did not actually deliver the cheque to Mrs. Jervis, but he sent it to her by poet. He should reserve his oliservatioos on that charge till he had legal as 'Llano*. With regard to the two charge. of felony, it wu true he was convicted of one, but he woe acquitted of the other on the ground of insanity ; and as the two occurred about the mine time, it was clear that if one arose from inanity so did the other. The Rev. Mr. Mastyn requested it might be stated that the prisener had not, as he represented, been connected with the Poor Clergy Belief Society. He was committed for trial. MA RLBOROUG H- STREET .

Re viewing the market for the entire week, we fled a decided improvement as regards yarn, and rather more business has been done in cloths, though very little improvement has shown itself in the latter as regards price. The movement in the cottos market which took plece on Monday, and has been kept up nearly all the weak, whether the result of speculation or booed fide demand, was responded to imme diately by the yarn market he, and a fair amount of busi ness has followed. both for the home and foreign trade, at an advance of id. to Id. per lb. on the rates of last week. Buyers for India, however, have abstained front purchasing mneb, although eerie demand has been ex perienced for India 40's, chiefly, it is understood, by shippers for the continent of Swope. at id. advance. In home trade yams up to 24's water twist very little has been dose,and prices are only slightly firmer. The finer classes of yarns, made from Egyptian cotton, have advanced about Id. per lb. Some good contract, have been placed during the week is various classes of yarn ; and, although advicss from ladle speak of yarns having declined I id. at Bombe, and id. per lb. at Calcutta, spinners appear to he sanguine that they will be able to sustain the edemas is this market. Thelsdisi mews has, however, checked business. The advice, of a fall in shirtier' of is, per piece at Bombay has given a stronger check to operations in cloth than has been experienced in the yarn market. In fact throughout the . week buyers of cloth, though rather more disposed to place such orders as they hold, have only been willing to give the prices which last week they persistently withheld ; and operations have only been effected where sellers have been willing to meet them on such terms. All that can be said of improvement in cloth is that prices are firmer, and that there is leas irre gularity amorist sellers.

Manufacturers have most of them sufficient orders to keep them going up to the *ad of the quarter ; and by that time it is expected there will be increased animation in the home trade generally. In the foreign department there is more activity. Within the last day or two there has been increased inquiry for goods for India, and the tenor of ad vice@ just received is such as to lead to the iafereoce that we an about to have a good trade with that quarter. The Australian trade is also pretty good, arid there have been more orders in hand of late on acemnt of the West Indies and South America' In reference to the coetnentsl tirade, that with Spain if rather above the average.
