GRAND ROWING MATCH.
THE CHAMPIONSHIP OF THE Tmasms.---There Was aver'
considerable attendance of the elite of the river on Sater'
day to witness the contest for the right to challenge the
present holder of the silver sculls, the symbol of Thames
championship amongst gentlemen amateurs. These scull
were given about ten years since by a gentleman nazeo
Wingfield, a great patron of river sports, as a
&still
prize, under the following regulations :—After the gra„„
contest, which was necessary to make a possessor, thili
all persons desirous of contesting the championship sch
row together as the challengers on the 5:1I of le
succeeding August, the winner of that party btr.
entitled to row against the holder seven days a'7lo
wards, and in the event of the latter declining, 44
prize to be given up to the challenger• plece!sidif
has compelled the gentlemen having the control 50:100
rection of this great wager to deviate in the present 9 bee*o
from the original stipulations, Sollie objections haviaq r ail
taken to the claim of Mr. Scott, which rendered. if to
parties a postponement absolutely necessary,
the question might be fairly discussed. Mr. Scott S ;if).
was tiltiniately withdrawn, and Mr. Pollock, 14r* 4 eli•
man, and Mr. Crockford were the gentlemen deetn'tvot.,
Bible to contend. The distance nominated is from ;.,rei
minster to Putney with tide, and it may be realer°

that Mr. Wood, of the great Leander Club, is the go
holder, he having in a very severe struggle defeatedoe,
