There have already Leen 19 contests on the river Thames
between the two universities, and in 9 of these Oxford has
been victorious, Cambridge winning 10 of them. Oxford
was victorious in 1820, 1842, 1849, 1852, 1854, 1857, 1859,
1891, and 1862 ; and Cambridge in 1836, 1839, 1840, 1841,
1845, 1816, 1319, 1856, 1858, and 1860. Should the
Oxonians win this year, 10 races will have been won by
each.

In addition to the boat race, arrangements are pending
for the continuation of the annual Oxford and Cambridge
double and single billiard and raquet matches, to take place
the same week in London. Athletic sports are becoming
more popular at the Universities, and during the present
term the Oxford athletes will meet those of Cambridge at
the latter place. The annual cricket and tennis matches
will take place as usual in London later in the summer,
and a grand review of the Oxford and Cambridge rifle corps
is fixed to take place at Oxford on the Bth Juno next,

The opening of the New Charing Cross Rail-
way Station will being an enormous accumulation
of traffic to that end of the Strand : a large portion of this
must come from the west and north-west, the ordinary ac-
cess being by way of the Haymarket or by Waterloo-
place. Both of these roads are objectionable, as having
steep gradients and being at right angles to the lines of the
Strand and Piccadilly, so that the traffic must proceed
along
of a
two sides of oaftrao

mationandextending it into Leicester-square, has been talked of. This
would afford a shorter route and gentler incline. Now is
the time to do it.
