THE GREAT NATIONAL REGATTA.

SECOND DAY.

The racing was of a very interesting character, and
the attendance as large as on the previous day. The
weather in the afternoon was dull and gloomy, but as
the day advanced it became, after two or three very
trifling showers, a beautiful afternoon. The arrange.
ments were, as before, very excellent, and contributed
much to the enjoyment of the assembled multitude.
The sport commenced at half-past twelve with
The Watermen's Scullers' Race, open to all the world,
- -

for prizes amounting to 341.
The First Heat was won by John Mackinney, Rich
mond.
The Second by T. Mackinney, Richmond.
The Final Heat terminated as follows :—•
H. Kelly (Red) 1
T. Mackinney (Yellow) 2
J. Candlish (Pink) 0
J. Mackinney
Match for 1001.

The regatta was suspended for an hour for the great
match between Robert Newell, of Battle-bridge Stairs,
Horselydown, and Henry Clasper, of Newcastle-on-
' Tyne, which started from Putney-bridge, and proceeded
to Mortlake. It is hardly necessary to say much about
the merits of these men. Henry Clasper was the cham-
pion of the Tyne, and formed in the present regatta one
of the Newcastle crew. All being in readiness, the men
started. Newell got the best of the start for a moment,
but seemed in the thitd pull to miss the full power of his
right hand stroke, and in an instant Clasper regained
the slight advantage his adversary had acquired the mo-
ment before, and there was the gap of one clear length
between them. Both men got to their work in beauti-
ful style, but there was no change for the next dozen
strokes. After that 'Clasper began to draw away gra-
dually, and increased the lead to the finish, coming in
first by above a hund'
ed yards.

It was a splendid start, and kept up half-way down
to Hammersmith-bridge, where Holmes's crew showed
slightly in front, pressed' by the Claspers, who gradually
stole away from them, and ultimately won withtolerable
else. Salters' crew rowed right up to Holme's crew,
and a slight foul occurred. The Claspers were backed
at evens before starting. •

ADVERTISEMENT.—HoIIoway's Pills infallible for the
Cure of Bile and Sick Headache. Mr. Patrick
Nl‘Kernan, formerly of New Ross, now of Columbus,
Olrio, states in a letter to Professor Holloway that he
suffered for upwards of three years from a bad stomach,
pains in the head, and a severe nervous debility, during
which time he consulted the most eminent medical men,
but all in vain. He therefore resolved 'to take no more
of their medicine, and give Holloway's pills a trial, by
taking them for a short period. They had the desired
effect, of accomplishing a perfect cure, and he strongly
recompends etnr4nts not to leaye. Eligland.without
