AQUATICS.
GRAND ROWING MATCH. —The great contest between
Charles Hill, of Hungerford, and John Kelly, of Fulham,
took place on Saturday, and, considering that the time of year
is ill adapted for aquatic displays, was very well attended.
These men are next in celebrity to Campbell, the champion, and
Coombes, who rowed against him last Thursday. Hill won
the sovereigns given by the Leander and other clubs some
weeks since, when Coombes by accident rowed into the flag-
boat, and Kelly has been twice pitted against Coombes within
the last month. Betting had been at first in favour of Kelly,
but as the time approached for the start it was even. They
came to their stations at Westminster Bridge a few minutes
before three o'clock, Hill taking the inside place on the Mid-
dlesex shore. They went away scull and scull together, but
ere their arrival at the Horseferry Kelly rowed right on to his
opponent (fouling being allowed). There was considerable
generalship displayed by both men, but Kelly seemed deter-
mined not to leave his man. Hill, however, got free of him at
the Penitentiary, and rowed right away. Kelly worked hard
to overtake him, but with no effect. Hill was about two lengths
a-head off the Eagle and continued to gain in each succeeding
stroke, arriving at Putney Bridge about two hundred yards
a-head of his opponent. The winner rowed in Mr. Coign-
houn's boat, built fer the silver sculls contest.

THE DUKE OF BUCCLEUGH.—The silly stuff put
forward by some of the Scotch papers, that the reasons of the
Duke of Beceleuch's leaving this for the Continent are from
pecuniary difficulties, would be almost too contemptible to
notice if they had not been echoed by those journals that
should have known better. His Grace, we are assured, has at
least ten millions sterling available money, besides the immense
rental of his large estates, totally unencumbered. Under
these circumstances, could 47,0001., expended in the way de-
scribed, cause his Grace to leave England ?—Edinburgh Paper.
RAILWAY SERVANTS,—SeveraI paragraphs are
in circulation containing complaints of incivility on the part of
the servants of the Railway Companies, and of oilier griev-
ances. A prompt remedy, we are assured, is easily attainable
by any aggrieved party who will take the trouble to forward to
the Directors any well-grounded complaint. Every servant
has a distinct number on his dress, by which he may be iden-
tified ; and the Directors are anxious to prevent every cause
of dissatisfaction, and to promote the comfort and convenience
of travellers as far as possible.—Birmingham Gazette.
THE BUSHRANGERS.—HOBART-TOWN, JUNE
26.—0 n Thursay morning, Atterell, Regan, and Banks,
underwent the last dreadful sertence of the law. Davis was
reprieved upon the recommendation of his Honour the Chief
Justice. Regan and Banks were Catholics, and were et-
tended by the Bishop's visitor, the Reverend Mr. Therry.
Regan is said to have been pe.fectly unreserved in giving
full details of every occurrence before and after his taking
to the bush. There is nothing authentic as respects the
Bushrangers at large on the other side the island, but they
are closely pursued, and will no doubt be soon in custody.__
Murray's Review.
THE DARLINGS.—The Royal National Institution
for the Preservation of Lives from Shipwreck have announced
to Mr. Robert Plummer, of this town, that they have voted
the silver medal of the institution to W. Darling and his
daughter, Grace Horseley Darling, in testimony of their laud-
able exertians in behalf of the crew and passengers of the
Furfarshire steamer, recently wrecked on the Fern Islands.
The institution have also subscribed the sum of 10/. in aid of
the g, nrrai fund now raising, for the DA.lings and the boatmen
of Sunderland, who exerted themselves so meritoriously on the
awful occasion.—Newcastle Journal.
