UNIVERSITY BOAT RACE.

Compared with tho dashing work in both the
university boats at Putney yesterday the previous perform-
ance.: the crews might be considered iosignificant ; both
evidently were on their mettle, and their exertions gabled
for them the unqualified approbation of their fri, and
auger well for • line raw on Saturday. Still there are some
trifling defects which are this will probably disappear. The
Cambridge crew wept out shortly before 11 o'clock from
fivroond's yard with WI oars supplied from his stores, and
not yet painted, their own sets which they brought from
Cambridge being disapproved of. They rowed up vaunt
the tide to the Ship at Mortlake. where they made • fioe
start, and rowed the muse down on the ebb. The whole
distance was rowed at a dashing pace, commencing at 36
and reaching 37 or 38 strokes per minute when they were
well into their work, and they were well together in the
pull, although close critics were of opinion that some of the
crew still throw themselves a little too much back at the
end of the stroke. by which they lose time, to my nothing
of expending strength without a commensurate effect.
Their pace was certainly very fast, the distance being so-
oompltehed in little more than :20, minute.. The Oxonians
went oat from the London Rowing Club boat-house at
about 12, and rowed a little above the Ship before they
turned to go off, and were thee nearly on • level with
Barker's rails. They were off at a fine pace, and getting
into the adebrated Oxford swing, almost immediately
came down at • fine pace, rowing at the rate of from 38 to
39 or 39i strokes per minute. Their pace was rather
accelerated towards the lioish, and the time occupied was
about 20i minutes, and some five or six seconds lees than
the Oaatabs with a little more distance, but a trifle more
tide. Betting wee 5 to f on Oxford,but oeitheifreely laid oar
taken. The Stork steamer has been *waged by Henry
Kelly, the ex-champion of the Theme*, to merely spectators
from Woolwich to areompsay the race.
