pealed, and on kis right hued were rooted_ two arms,
the stroke oar of the Oxford, ea the priweipal of the eiders,
being next the chair, and next le him the stroke oar at the
Cam bridge, and so on 'Domande one and one according
to their numbers. Amongst the genteel company were :
The Sheriff of Middlesex (Mr. Con the Rev. Canon
Lansdale, Sir Prescott, Bert., Sic Jobs Hans-
ler, Spanish Ge
consul-General,. Danish ConsufGeneral,
Captain Morley, J.P., Dr. Bayford, James W-
hom, J.P, Foroett, Barclay,

Philip , Seq., V.P., Rhodes Cobb, Seq., J. Readings, Miq.
(I7th Lancers), H. C. Smith, Req. (secretary), do., and a
Lap number of old University men as well as present
members.
The Queen, the Prince' f Wales and rest of the Royal
Family ' having received the used tribute of loyalty and
rapid, and due honour having isms paid lathe Army, Navy,
and Volunteers,
The Commute expressed his belief that by cultivating
=iodine such m the present the Themes Sabscriptiou Club
was doing that which maths object of its exhilemia
promoting • taste for aquatic sports, sad fostering that
spirit of competition which was am of oar natimed oho-
noteriatics. Moat of those he ow addrering had been
mvasst that day at • modest which, though not the almost
he had ever witnessed, was one of the moat intereedzig.
It wee known that it was to be • contest between the Ox-
ford and Combridge crews for superiority ea the Thames,
that both would have to contend agithst dhadventsges;
they bad to meet as ebb, and while the Oxford mew was
new, the Cambridge was untried on that river. Up to the
time of the race, therefore. there had been every reason to
look forward to • gallant contest. Up to the Mart ao one
knew how theorem, were matched, and watermen with whom
he rowed down that morning toll him that holm seen the
trial between the Cambridge crew and the waterman's crew
on the previous day, if he bad had to lay out his money he
would have taken the Cambridge for choice, considering
that theirs was the better style. This showed how anemia=
was the result, while the interest taken in it was evinced by
the number of spectators whit* crowded both the river acrd
the banks, and which certainly had never been exceeded on
any previous 0001a011, lla the me hood they had the Oxford,
• new crew in substance, but compriaing maw of the intro-
chests of last year% crew—with the stroke oar of last year,
who gave the Atoka that won the race then, sad who gave
the stroke that won tberace that day. (Hear.) They ware
• crew powerful in aim and weight, carefully trained, and in
the course of the few days' practice they had on the river,
working so well together, that the river watermen were
prepossessed in their favour ; on the other hand they bad
the,Cambridge—men of Ices oommariding stature, of lighter
weight, wanting that Lifeguard like appearaum
'of their opponenta, but whose style of rowing was
excellent, and with a capital man for stroke oar, who
had taken a crew down to Healey that won every rase they
rowed, and which had beaten one of the best crew that
ever polled on the London river. It was difficult to say,
then, which would win, and there was every reason to ex-
pect a close and a gallant struggle. These contests involve
something more than a good race. The men who formed
the crews felt that they were a part—the nucleus as it
were—of the universities they represented, and for the
honour and credit of which they felt themselves reepoesible.
Individuality •••• lust in the feeling which induces men to
light groat battles, and undertake hazardous enterprises in
distant parte of the world, that their energies, their talent',
their Mews, and their nerves are not their own, but
belong to their college, their university, or their country.
This was she secret which made these feces so interesting
and so exciting. (Hear, bear.) There was • remarkable
instance of this abnegation of self that day
in the stroke oar of the Oxford crew, Mr. Hoare.
A short time ago he met with an accident which disabled one
of his arms, and though he was suffering from that accident
at the time of the rerehe nevertheless went in and woo. He
(the chairman) was as glad as • Cambridge man could be
that the Oxford crew were the victors, for they rowed well
and won gallantly. (Hear, hear.) His Cambridge friends
were unfortunate. They were overweighted in their oppo-
nents, they lost toss, they lost the start, they lost the lead,
and they lost the race, hut they never lost their pluck, and
they never lost their honour. (Cheers.) Let them be con.
soled by the reflection that it. wee not leas houottrable,
though it was leas fortunate, to be beaten than to win in
such • contest. In conclusion he called upon the company
to drink to both crews, coupling with the toast the names
of the two stroke oars, Memos. Moore and Richards.
The toast was drunk with acclamation.
Mr. Hoots, in acknowledging the compliment, ascribed
their victory to their admirable training, which was due to
Mr. Morrison, who, in the greet interest he had taken in the
men, bed, he (cared, imperilled his university honours. The
only advantage the Oxford Crew bad was in the heavier
weight of their men; in time and style the Cambridge crew
was acknowledged to be the superior.
Mr. filename also replied to the toast, and accounted for
the defeat of the Cambridge boat by the lighter weight of
the men, who, be said, were not powerful enough fur the
rough water at Putney. He had arranged for • heavier
crew, but from one accident or another he had been
disappointed in several of his friends. Without
any disparagement to the Oxford crew he believed
they would have found them much closer up with
them at the finish than they were bad it ant
been for the interruptions they met with in the ram.
(Hear, hear.) It was impossible for any two crews to row
together fairly while steamers and small boats were allowed
to crowd upon them so that they could not clear their oars.
He !mated this noise's°e would be put an end to before
another year, and that they would be enabled to row the
next race over • clear course.
Mr. ROARS gave Prosperity to the Sateoription Club with
the health of the Chairman.
The Comitstha in replying confirmed Mr. Richards' state-
men that the ram bad bees epeiledby the steamers keeping
close to and parallel to the estioad boat, and promised that
the Thames Subscription Cleb would joie in any atop to
put • stop to the poetise of steamers "colliding resod the

to the facts of the pint.

A few roughly compiled statistics will be sufficient to
prove the important character and the vast iciterests which
were connected with the meeting held on Thureeky sad
Friday last. Twelve moss were decided during the two '
days, she aggregate number of starters being 16L The nett I
value of the twelve stakes, calculated according to the
Jockey Club rule (64), was 4,3451. Of this amen, odOl. was
contributed from the race fund, 501. by the Brighton Bed-
way Company, sad 601. by the South Western Railway
Company. The contribution from the fund wee, however,
merely nominal, and in fact, amounted to only 611., for the
' exchequer derived 1781. from the entrance fees to the Plates
alone, whilst it was further enriched to the extent of 3.331,
by the surplus money over the mollies price of the respective
winners of the London-bridge and Balaclava Stakes. Sell-
ing races are, however, an uncertain source of revenue, Dad
do nut always benefit a race fund to the amount which they
did on the present occadoe.
During the meeting some of the most distinguished of
oar turf celebrities entered the lists. The most prominent
of them may he enumerated. Amongst the defeated com-
petitors for the Trial Stoker were Brown Duchess and Can-
tine. The former, it may be remembered, had nice suc-
cesses recorded in her favour last year, the most important
amongst them being her Oaks victory, and her subsequent
dead heat with Kettledrum, the winner of the Derby, for
' the Doecaster Cup. By her prowess in 1861 her owner
netted is stakes aloes 7,0501. Cantina was the wiener el
the City and Suburban last year.
Arcadia, who carried off the Trial Stakes, has, greatly
to the surprise of racing men, achieved a high reputatiou,
which, although not incocufistent with bee antecedents,
was certainly unexpected. The rapidity with which her
ruing power, have been developed will be seen from the
following brief sketch of her career. Alter wispier a sell-
ing race at Richmond last year. she was sold for 50 guineas.
Subsequently she was entered for a Selling Plate, to be sold
for 201. She won that engagement, and was purchased by
her present trainer for 60 guineas. At Shrewsbury she won
another selling nee, for which she was entered to be sold
for 301., and was bought in for 110 guises. Bar sett wie-
lders ID 1861 were only 1664, but this year she has
! already won upwards of 6001., includingthe Liverpool Cup,
the Trial Stakes at Northampton, and the Trial States all
BP.°m.

WOOLLEN.--Lincio, Aria 12.—There was, if any-
thing, a little more animation in the Coloured Hall this
morning ; one or two fair parade of tweeds changed hands,
also a few low miltona. There was a better atteedsnoe at
buyers, though the veal majority of them were merely
looking on, and on the search for jobs. The White market
was tolerably attended, but the transactions were very
limited. White cloths are now being offered at very low
prices, lower probably than has ever been the case at any
previous time. There was a pretty good display of wittier'
sod other heavy goods this morning, of which the makers
seemed disposed to push the sale, but no one operated to
any extent, u it is yet too early for autumn purchases.

HARDWARE.—ltemixonem, Aram 12.—The trade of
this town is more animated than it was a month ago, though
• certain amount of aluggisbness still prevails ; much de-
peods on the elms of goods manufactured—more, perhaps,
upon the markets with which manufacturers may happen
to be cocoected. In the same branch one may be busy
whilst another ia slack, so ranch so as to be dependent
almost on orders which come in from day to day, and there
is every probability that this kini of quietude will con-
tinue for some time Boger. It is not likely to incrmaN
because stocks are low, nukes a run of congenial weatha
should set in to interfere with the progress of agricultural
operations, which would be sure to prevent any
eenskierable reection in trade. The factors here
who are connected with the Irish trade report
it unusually quiet for the 1131111011 ; through the
autumn and winter months it was almost at • standstill,
apd at present there has been only • very moderate demeW
for goods suitable to the spring trade. In the foreign trade
there is more animation ; a considerable number of mer-
chants' orders have been given out, and although they are
not large they Imes 'come in usefully at this moment when
the home trade exhibits so much of quietude. There
has Imps more inquiry of Lite for goods suitable
for the Indian markets, and the continental
markets have been doing more busbies' during the
bat fortnight. la the adjoining. district trade appears
to be improving, except at the foundries, where inactivity
still prevails. The ahainmakers have some good orders in,
and there is no* a prospect of the differences between the
masters and the men on the wages question being arranged.
The miners are all out on strike, and several meetings of
the men have taken place in the course of the week ; at pre-
sent there appears to be little prospect of the masters yield-
ing to their terms; the men allege that at the present mole it
is impossible to earn sufficient to live upon ; some of them
cannot earn more than 10s. or ii.. per week ; this wale it
is now proposed to reduce, and the men lave struck in oonse-
queoce. The concluding meeting for the quarter of the
ironsioaters of this district was held at Dudley; only a
small amount of business was done, and the position of the
trade remains the same as at the alas' of the Birmingham
meeting on Thursday.
