This great regatta opened yesterday, and will termi-
nate to-day. Although the number of races was scarcely
equal to a first day's average, the supply of sport amply
compensated
,for any deficiency, besides possessing the
additional Charm of determining the award of two of the
valuable prizes, instead of confining the racing as hereto-
fore tco much to trial heats. There were features of
lively interest in the programme shated in cominon Vaal
classes of rowing men,- while the eharai•ter of the'entries
and brilliancy of the assemblage proved that the prestige
of theae most agreeable r€unions 18 undiminished: The
sports commenced at two o'clock with the races for
The PRESENTATION CuP, for local millers.
First Htat.
Mr. E. J. Giles (Henley) 1
Mr. H. Sergeant (Henley)
Mr. Brockbauk was entered, but did not go. The
course was, as usual, front the island up to the ...—vards'
stand. Mr. Giles, a very capital scalier, to k his 'a-
tion on the Bucks side, and they went ot- somewhat
irregularly, but soon got to work excellent), , and main-
twined a.staart contest for a quarter of a in. of whin
Giles went away and won as be pleased.

STAMP ACTS.
The house then went into committee of supply.
Mr. WILSON moved that, in lieu of the present stamp
duties, the following should be charged :

HADFIELD complained of the perpetual changes
which it was found necessary to make In these acts, which,
he thought, ought to be more carefully drawn in the first
instance. • Notwithstanding the Short time which had
elapsed since the last act, it was now found necessary to
amend it. He ohjected to the amendment now proposed,
for he could see no reason why so great a difference should
be made in leases for 'lOO years and in those over .that
period. The principle was bad, and would only lead to
mi=chievOus roults in practice. He mov, d, therefore, to
omit the second column of the hon. member's motion, and
to make the 'stamp duties on leases irrepective of, their
term. •

Mr. T, Benham (Wargro. ............. . 0
Both men rowed very excellently. They were together
for alew strokes, and then Piper drew ahead, and con-
tinued to lead, winning easily. although his opponent
certainly deserves much credit for his guns.
The DIAMOND CHALLENGE SCULLS and SILVER
• -PRESENTATION CUP. •
First Heat.
Mr. H. H. Playford (Wandle Club). 1
Mr. 'E. G: Dilton (Argonauts). 0
The Diamond Challenge sculls race 'was a matter of
much excitement,_ and occasioned _consilerahle specula-
tion. Mr. Playfor;d was the favourite of the heat, and
was freely banked at small olds against his adversary.
The takers were,b6wever.- very ready, and as Mr. Dil-
ton had trained under T.- Cole, the champion of the.
Thanes, and was known in his trials to have done the
distance in very short time, lie was looked upon as an
awkward customer to his opp(rnent, and so he really
turned out.. He toOk- the Bucks side and _although
they' were started very evenly, dashed-'away •with a
'slight lead, which he maintained for 200 yards, and then,
menaced by his tipp-inent coining almost'scult-and
again drew • a sight lead, and a most determined.
struggle, followed. PlAyfOrd opposite Rem-enhain
was again scull and scull with his opponent, and then
both shot towards the Poplars; Playford. nearing the
point more than his length in advance -of the other,
who then injudiciously-rowed too near the point ;- but.
had it been otherwise, was evidently too much exhausted-,
to have continued on with !flitch chance of success,,and
Mr. Playford rowed the straight :course to. the finish,
winning by three lengths.
.Second Heat...
Mr. R. C."Galton (let Tiiniv, Cambridge) 1
Mr. W. F. Short (New College, Oxford)... 0
. These gentlemen had their friends and partisans, as in
the previous heat, and Mr. Galton had clearly the ch.,ice,
which was not ill bestowed, for the race was hollow
enough... Short took the Berkshire shore, and his oppo.
vent the Bucks. They started well, but Galton almost
immediately took the lead, and at Remenham was so
much in advance Olathe rowed into his opponent's water,
and finally won by four lengths.'
Final Heat.

. .
Lord GALWAY objected ton discussion being taken at
that late hour on this important point.
Mr. WILSON reminded the: committee that this was
hutu preliminary resolution, necessary in order to enable
the Government to bring in a bill, and he would therefore
suggest to his hon. friend to allow it to pass and to
make his objection in committee upon the bill. If his
bon. friend would assent to this there would be no n ed to
discu%s the principle of the proposed alteration at that time.
The question would then have been before the hints° for'
some time.

' Mr. HADFIELD would rather take the opinion of the
-committee at once.

Sir H. WILLOUGHBY thought it desirable that the
'committee should know exactly what chenge was to be
made, and why it was to be made.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said. that
this very resolution had been prepared in order to meet
some objections which had been made to the Stamp Act by
the 'hon.-member who was opposed to it. The hon. gentle-
man (Mr. Hadfield) had on various occasions urged objec-
tion's to the present ditties, considering that they were too
high; and did not make sufficient distinction between con-
veyances out. and out and long terms of years, and it had
been the endeavour of the Government in- this resolution
to meet these objections. It seemed to hire that leaSes
generally ought to be divided into three classes.; the first
consisted of short farming and other leases, seldom exceed-
ing more than 35 years. The next class was building leases,
which generally extended to 99 Years, and the third class
were those over 103 years. This last class approximated to
conveyanet3s out and ont, and therefore it was thought only
right that they should bear an increased rate ofduty. They
proposed to fix the charge on leases of from 35 years to 100,
at one qua. ter the-charge for conveyances in fee, and on
leases under 25 yeari the charge would remain as at pre
sent. Chief rent would be the same charge as if for a lease
above 100 years.

Mr. 131aGHT did not think th..t the right hon. gentle-
man had much mended his original proposition. There
were three,clewiptions of property affected'. Annual rents
umler l 0,0" years, and above 35; annual rents above 100
years, and leases in perpetuity. The first the right hon.
gentleman increased six times, the second, twelve times,
anti the lait he reduced one-half. Would it not have been
fairer to have had an ad valorem stamp duty on all. The
plan:tf the right hon. gentleman. only made the inconsis-
tencies of the duty more glaring than they were before.
He contended that the annual rent was the true test of
value, and that upon that an ad valorem duty should be
levied.

The respective merits of Messrs Gallon and Playford
were again discussed, and the friends of. both were so
confident that slight odds were given on each, according
to the fancy of the backers.
' Mr. Playhird (Wandle) 1
Mr. Galton (Ist Trill., Cambridge) 2
It is extremely unfortunate that the race was put an
end' to in the middle 1:4,a foul. Galton took Oxford
side, his opponent-tile other, and both looked very con-
fident. Mr. Playford took the lead by dint of real good
rowing, but when about half-a-Mile had been done they
were scull and scull again. Mr. Galton began to make
a spurt to go past his opponent, and conceiving that the
latter was out of his course ran into him, and conse-
quently lost the race.

nortei progress and the house resumed.
