BITITELV Wr. FOIlltrAT /LED E. GILLETT trot 201. a ems.
—Yestenny this match came off according to arrangement, the dis-
tance being from the Half-way House between Woolwich and Green-
hithe to the Dreadnought, opposite Greenwich HospitaL The dis-
tance was about nine miles, and the betting 2to 1 on Gillett. The
start was effected in a beautiful manlier, the men being mull and
scull for some few seccads. Gillett, shortly after starting, unshipped
his left-hand scull, givhig his opponent an advantage. Having re-
shipped his scull he again lay down to his work, but had scarcely
taken fifty strokes before the seine accident again occurred, the boat
in which be rowed turning completely ever. He was instantly picked
up by his galley. Gillett 's cousin then got into the bunt, when after
having rowed It about two miles he also got a ducking, and narrowly
escaped with his life. The winner took it easily, doing the distance
in about an hour.
