The Oxford and Cambridge boat race of 1888, with its hopes and fears, its speculations and un certainties, is a thing of the past. Its chief actors are being complimented and condoled with. The telegraph has probably spread the news to America. Our two universities are respectively celebrating • victory, and looking forward hopefully to retriev ing .defeat ; thousands upon thousands of pleasure- takers, idlers, gossips, and quid-mines are talking over the spirited contest of this morning ; sad the river Thames, after presenting all the features of a turbulent aquatic fair, will soon resume its normal condition of sluggish locomotion and dirty tran quillity. The physical condition of each of the sixteen young men who rowed so splendidly this morning has been a subject of such intense anxiety to people who had never seen them, for weeks past, that if any of them suffered from trivial but pos sibly annoying ailments, their latest symptom. have formed a topic of conversation at the clubs and dinner-tables, and diagnoses been confi dently given by amateur physiologists as to their probable energies this morning. Oxford has been the favourite among the men, Cambridge we ven ture to say has had most lady supporters. The former feeling had at least as much superstition in it as judgment, while the latter has been con fessedly due to sympathy for men who have struggled long and gallantly against adverse for tune. Up to Thursday both crews were frequently on the river ; now pitting their strength against picked Thames watermen ; now following the lead of crews composed of the cracks of the great London rowing clubs ; and now practising starts, and generally accustoming themselves to the locality of their great straggle of to-day. Know ing people have not hesitated to criticise their style ; sporting editors have written of their " points" and " wind " with almost as much en thusiasm as if they were horses or dogs ; the pur veyors of public amusements have made them their text ; and the shopkeepers and the general public have shown their sympathy, the one by vending and the other by wearing light and dark blue adornments in every conceivable variety. We are able to state, on the authority of a tradesman whose boast it is to have one of the largest univer sity connections in London, and whose general customers are more numerous still, that up to Tuesday evening there was a positive run upon Ox ford colours, but that the tide turned • little then, and that yesterday the demand was as nearly as possible equal between the two. We believe this statement to represent with tolerable accuracy the public feeling ; and that opinion was more equally divided at the lest than the betting seemed to show. And there never were so many people present as this morning. The metropolis has, in fact, been a kind of play-ground and meeting-place for colle gians past and present for days past. Year by year the excitement has increased, and the number of spectators multiplied until last Saturday after noon's practice actually drew more people together than the race itself did a dozen years ago. The hotels most favoured by college men are full ; and at the sparring-match held on Thursday for the amateur championship of England, and gallantly won by a Cambridge man (Mr. Thomas Milvain) against Herculean guardsmen, and all comers, and at the Athletic Sports yesterday it was easy to see that the chief population of both Oxford and Cam bridge had moved bodily into town. As early as 7 o'clock vehicles of every descrip tion were passing over Hammersmith Bridge in the direction of Barnes and Mortlake, and such was the influx of visitors at the latter place, that a perfect " block " was inevit able. Five shillings were charged for • place on the bridge, the ordinary traffic being stopped. By half-past Ban immense body of the A reserve, under the direction of Superintendents Butt, Fisher, &c., arrived at Hammersmith, and were distributed at various points on the road and along the towing-paths. By this time the general company were in unprecedented numbers, and the greatest difficulty was experienced by the officials at the toll-house notwithstanding the assistance of the police. A dense fog, which as late as 10 o'clock rendered it impossible to discern objects from the Middlesex to the Surrey aide of the water, did not tend to diminish the confusion. Soon after 10 the towing path between the peescribed course was lined with people, among whom were many on horseback. The crowding at Mortlake was far in excess of any previous year, and the anxiety to witness the " coming in " may be judged from the fact of 51. being paid for • seat commanding a view of the river. Throughout the early part of the morning guns were fired, and the utmost enthusiasm prevailed. Precisely at • quarter to 11 his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, accompanied by General Grey, left Marlborough House, in a closed brougham, to witness the race. As an incident in connexion with the "road," we may mention that at Kensington and Ham mersmith several carriages were observed with the lamp lighted as a precaution against the fog. The following were the weights of the crews : OXIOAD. at. lb. 1. W. D. Beason, BaD10l lA. C Yarborough, Uncola ll 8 BIL Rom, Batter 4. /0. Marsden, Merton 6. J. C. Ttnae, Colvenity li 8 6. P.

(PROM OUR CORREIPONDENT ON BOARD BR'LL'S LWR" BOAT.) A thick fog that enveloped London at early morn caused the most gloomy forebodings to be indulged in by those' who intended trusting to the steamboats for a view of the race, and several vessels failed to put in appearanse at the' appointed place* along the line between the Tondos and Westminster Bridges. Hence the river was not so crowded as usual, end fortunately too, for it was a very " bad passage" until reaching Wandsworth, when the atmosphere began to clear, so that shooting Putney-bridge was not so difficult a feat as had been feared. One or two boats, however, missed Are the first time, and among them the Loudon Pride, on board of which were the Prince of Wales, PAncie Arthur, the Duke of Sutherland, the Duke of St. Albans, &a. The Oxford boat was the first to make its appearance, and the sun shining with no little power, the scene became somewhat animated as the light blues also e.atne out and took their station on the Middlesex side, having won the toss for place. All being quickly in readintes the signal was given at 11.47 for 'FXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, APRIL 4, 1868: THE START. Cambridge took the water first, rowing very quick but " snatchy" strokes, and at once took the lead, being half their own length ahead half way up the willows.. Off the point, the crews being wide, the light blues appeared to lead by their own length, when Oxford put on a spurt, and drew up level, making the shoot from the Surrey shore too soon. The Oxford had to steer out ; still on the boats becoming straight they were about level again. Cambridge now put on a spurt, and for a short time appeared again in front ; Oxford, however, equal to the emergency, quickened their stroke, and at the Crabtree (reached in 5 min. 8 sec.) they were leading by their own length, which was increased to a clear length at Hammersmith-bridge. Time, 7 min. 39 sec. Afterwards, Oxford wont clean away, though half way up Chiswick-eyot Cambridge made a desperate effort, and drew up within half a cleat• length. They died away again, however, when Barnes-bridge was reached, Oxford being sixteen seconds in front hero, and eventually the Dark Bluas went in six leng:l43 front, Cambridge leaving off rowing the moment the gun was fired. The time, twenty-one minutes, as nearly as possible, was almost unpre. cedented, and gives a flat contradiction to the presumed inferiority of the two crews, though it must ho taken into consideration that tho river was well kept for about the first time on record, only the Prince of Wales's, tho umpire's, and the Beira Life boats being near enough at any time to cause the slightest disturbance of the waters. The crews started, too, some few seconds above the usual spot. (FROM OUR OWN COREESPOROZNT AT MORTLAKE.) Cambridge has lost again—gallantly, steadily. and with unfaltering courage, but still lost. Th thousands who cried " Well pulled, Cambridge !" at Mortlake saw the light blue conic in what we pre fer calling "a good second" to last." Th: race was virtually over at Barnes-bridge. The winning post and its approaches had beer carefully cleared by the smart steamer of the Thames Conservancy of a perfect flotilla of paddle-boats. who, headed by the famous Ito!, Roy, acted as aquatic special constables, and brought bargemen and wherrymen to order during tho half-hour before the finish. The dense fog of London was tempered down into a mellow haze, and the crowds on Barnes bridge and the embankment near were first seen iu excited motion a few minute. past 12. At this moment, in spite of the indefati gable efforts of the river-keepers, a huge and clumsy craft, with two others of leas size, deli berately moored themselves at the central bend in the river between Barnes and Mortlake, and stucl. there,to the deepandoutspoken indignationof all. To move them was impossible. The Conservancy steamer had drawn in on the Mortlake side, and any attempt to cross would have so ruffled the waters as to have created a worse impediment to the rowers than the one it was wished to remove. Both boats had to make a detour in consequence ; but this told most heavily on Cam bridge, who, notwithstanding, seemed to make ground, or, at all events, not to lose it to the very last. But the difference between the two boats was too great to make up, and Oxford came in an easy winner by some four lengths. A narrow and searching inspection of both crews at the finish convinced us that neither were distressed, in the accepted 'etre of the word. Beth pulled with magnificent regularity and force ; Oxford rich a fine sweeping, range, and Cambridge with a pertinacity which was unflagging to the last. From the drunken buf foon who made day hideous with his roars through a speaking-trumpet to the old University chani pions who clustered on the barges near there wa but one opinion as to the pluck and endurance of the struggle. On all aides were met famow in past contest& The north country hero who " put the stone" triumphantly for two years running cheered his losing comrades on from a barge. Fast " strokes" and "bows" and coxswains waved their congratulations and sympathy from various crafts. Thousands who had come in carriages saw nothing. The block was so enormous that the by-lanes of Mortlake and Sheen were crammed with disappointed sight seers ; and other vehicles stood up to the axle- Mem in water. The steamers, though kept back, were so near at the finish as to embarrass the last boat—one, the London Pride, being within two or three yardsof Cambridge, and its fore-wave doing some harm to her propel's. ANOTHER ACCOUNT. At five minutes to 12 one or two boats were dimly . discerned in the distance. Discordant and opposing cries were uttered as to whether or not it was the rival crafts that were in view, the mist on the river adding to the difficulty of settling the question. In another moment the fact was beyond dispute. After a transient diffe rence of opinion as to which led, some persons 'strongly irmlioing for an instant to Cambridge, there were unmistakeable and uncontradicted ex clamations of "Oxford wins," "Oxford's a mile a head," "'Cambridge has lost again," and about five minutes past 12—the two boats having been in sight about three minutes—the Oxford boat shot easily and gracefully between the Ship and the tree on the opposite aide, which form together the coveted goal, four or five lengths ahead, amid loudly expressed exclamations of disappointment that the contest had not been keener. The Cambridge men did not appear distressed. The Blue Riband of the Thames had not been lost without a gallant struggle. TIM AB TABRN BY BENSON'S CHRONOGRAPH. Hours. Minutes.

An inquiry into a very shocking case of child w,urder was held last night at Guy's Hospital by Mr. Payne, deputy-coroner. From the evidence of Alfred Searle, the driver of a Hauteur cab, No 1G,090, it appeared that on Wednesday oiaht, at a quarter put nine o'clock, be vas hailed in Craceehorch-street, City, by a lady and gentle man, who got into his cab. The gentleman called up through the trap hole in the roof and directed the witness to drive to South Hackney Church. when the cab arrived at the church in question the two paisengers got out; the gentleman told the la ly to go on, and be would overtake her. He then .topped and paid timbre, being Gd. over the proper Amount. Witners then drove back strsight to London bridge railway station. He then found in his cab, at the silo where the lady had been seated, a black leather bag. Upon opening the bag—the lock, he declared, was loose—he discovered the body of a male child wrapped ins flannel petticoat. He immediately communicated with the police. He bad acver :men either the lady or gentle. man before. The gentleman, he thought, be would know again, but he could not recognise the lady, for he only got a slight glimpse of her. Mr. George Keine, house-rurgooo, said. he examined the body of the deceased child. It was full timed, well developed, of the male me:, and had lived some hours. The cause of death was suffocation, produced, he believed, bye pillow being placed over the mouth and now In his opinion the child - had boss murdered. Tho Coroner said that he would adjourn the inquest to enable the detective police to traces the parties who de. posited the child in the fah. The proceedings were adjourned accordingly.

It appears that there am employed at the colliery about two hundred men and boys on the deg shift, and that during tha night very few emu are cogned, whose work ammo, to be to have the pa all ready in the mu, bias for the men who are engaged in' , hewing, Itc. At three o'clock on Tuesday morniug, the men employed on the night shift were considerably alarmed by • loud report, which shook the earth around them, and, immediately afterwards an immense volume of water burst into the workings o , !deb cover a largo space— between two and three miles, it is said. The 'earn where the men a ore then engaged is the main scam, rome 70 fathoms from the surtoe, chose which is the Notion seam, from whence it is supposed by some the water bed burst. Below the main seam of Poutop Pit, some thirty fathoms deeper, is the Busty scam, which has been filled with water for about tea years. SOl3l sappose the water to have Gems from . outsold working'', of which no one can give any account, but that such workiep exist near the scene of this disaster, no one appears to doubt. In fact, the water is quite stagnant, and of u peouish colour, which is s conclusive proof that it has been gathetlng for years. Immediately on receipt of the news, Mr. li. T. Swallow, resident viewer, was on the emus, and presently after tic. Cuthbert Berkley, head viewer for the Marley Rill Company, was on the ground. Monts. Thomas Bell,' viewer, South Moor; Thomas Simpson, under viewer, South Pontop Colliery ; Peter Kaye, under viewer, Onbill ; Thomas Shields, Quaking Houses, and other gen tlemen, were speedily on the spot anl ready for any emergency. The men escaped by a mirsole, as they were spread widely apart, and several risked their own lives in order to sat o their fellow-workmen. To add to the horror of their situation, the whole of the lights were put out, but fortunately ono man, William Bell, deputy, had • box of matches in his pocket. These he struck until they reached the shaft mouth, and It; that ' time the water was within nine inches of the top of the seam. As soon as the men were out the tubs woo put on to lift out the water; but although the engine was draw ing at the rate of 300 gallons • minute, at 6 o'clock in the evening the water bad reached six fathoms up the shaft, and at that time two of the deputies were preparing to descend by another shaft, to see whether the water was I rising or not. 28 gallows,. mad 23 horses ware in tho pit at the time, all of which were drowned. When the men arrived at the bank from their perilous position, it was found that many of them had had to leave their clothing land watches behind, and at that time the workmen were waiting to descend to their day's work. Fortunately, it was before 4 o'clock, as by that time 200 men and bays would have been in the pit, almost all of whom would ham peddled. A STRANGE &IKE IN • PARISH CHURCH.— Nantwich pariah thumb was on last Sunday morning and meniag the scene of occurrences which must be deplored by all who hold that puhlie worship should be mediated decently and in order." It appears that for a short time past • dispute has been going on between the rector, the Rev. A. F. Chater, and his citrate, the Rev. Mr. Temple. The details of this dispute are unknown to us, bat we believe the main facts of the ease to be as follows. An allowanse of 50/. made by the Pastoral Aid Society to wards the rapport of a curate for Nentwith was lately, for reasons with which we are unacquainted, withdrawn. Shestly after this took place, Mr. Temple announced that; the &today alternates services would be discon tinued, and about this time the rector gar, him notice that his maniocs would not be longer required, and offered to pay him his salary op to Midsummer on medi tate that he left at once. This condition Mr. Temple deelthed to accept • hence the unseemly proceedings we hem now to record . It appears that the vestry containieg tl s =zliess was locked up, bat before the service men a Mr. temple appeared Is the &spool with • cur pike thrown over his arm, and robed himself there. Whilst he was in the act of doing this the rector approached him, and said something to him whkh wee imedible to most of those present, but which we understand wen to the effect that he (the rector) would not allow Mr. Temple either to read or preach in that church. Previous, however, to the com mencement of the organ voluntary, the Reverend Ro bert Redfern, victor of Acton, stationed himself at the reeding-desk. After he had robed himself, Mr. Temple read • pipit to the rector, width was inaudible in the main body id the thumb, as Use belle wire chiming at the time, bat whisk was understood to be • protest sganast hie examen; he then approached the vim of Anton, sad reed the same paper to htm.
