AQUATICS.
ROWING MATCH.—HARRISON AND CREW.—This was as hard
a contest as has been seen throughout the seascn, but as far
as regards the stamina of the men it was all one way, Har=
rison showed himself throughout much the best man, and that,
too, under trying difilcultie4, The contest emanated from that
Of Doggett% Coat and Badge, in which both men rowed, Har-
rison coming in first and his adversary third. What could
have induced the friends of the latter to back him it is irilpo-
- to say, save that he is evidently w9ll accrikinted wkth tha
science of fouling. The Rntekt 144 11544, itMci 410

Forbes Mackenzie, Esq., M. P. for the county of Peebles,
who was appointed President of the meeting, in the absence
of his Grace the Duke of Buceleuelt, who was unavoid

a fall from his horse. After the different prizes had been coin-
