GRAND EIGHT-OARED CUTTER MATCH' ,
The great contest between the gentlemen of the v.,12";
versities of Oxford and Cambridge, which has for 00'" 0,
weeks past engrossed attention, came off yesterday, frlle
Westminster to Putney, a distance, calculated to try t
lasting power of aspirants in this sport. The well-kW:le
qualities of the men, theit youth, stamina, and long-es'id
blished game, had warranted the conclusion that this viotlan,
be the very no plus ultra of rowing, nor were the most
pine disappointed in their expectations. This was 11,
their first appearance, the same parties having before 414
tered the lists, from which the Cantabs, it is said, tbrousce.
the superiority of their boat, came off victorious. ,11„,;3

plucked the laurel from their brows; but in the contest of
last season between the same parties it was a successi°l!„,sl
fouling from their nearing the ilorseferry until their arrl'h
at Putney, which bridge the Leander went first throti
and claimed the honour of the day. The umpire, lir.
Searle, however declared this to be no match, and dissat'":
faction prevailed. In this contest the auri sacra faineh'
was cast on one side, the whole aim being to discover wbic"
of our two Universities could produce the best rowers.
The Cambridge crew were the favourites, from tug
supposition that having rowed two matches on the Par-
ticular water appointed fo yesterday, they would be
more au fait at their work, and the odds of 5 to 4 5,,ere,

Cambridge gentlemen went to the outside station, 1,‘9 lord

first four or five strokes appeared to do nothing ; but ibef

the difference of their strength and style was more Plush

Putney Bridge, amidst deafening shouts one minute
