ROWING MATCH FOR FIFTY GUINEAS.
Yesterday, Mr. Rhodes undertook, for the above sum, to
row in a wherry against Mr. Colthorpe in a skiff; from Vaux-
hall Bridge through the centre arch of Putney and back to
Vauxhall. The competitors for the Prize contended strenuous-
ly, but the palm of victory wtks finally awarded to the fonner
Gentleman,.

There was lately a deluge of. rain at Moscow,
ivhich demolished many houses, and otherwise
did considerable damage.
Mr. ADAMS'S system of making roads has ex-
tended to some parts of Russia and Prussia.
Upwards of 700 vessels arrived at Petersburgh
lust year from British ports.
Letters from Prussia mention the favourable
state of the crops, particularly the beautful state
of the rye.
DUEL.—On Wednesday morning a meeting
took place at Chalk Farm, between a i‘lr. J. V—, late of
the 12th Royal Lancers, and a Mr. 0111— of the Royal
Navy; the former was attended,by Mr. 3 32., the latter by
an Irish Gentleman, whose name we could not learn. After
the first fire an effort was made to bring about a reconciliation,
which was strenuously opposed by Mr. V., and the Gentlemen
being once more supplied with pistols, the seconds were pro-
ceeding to give the signal to fire, when a report of the approach
of the Police suspended hostilities; the entire party precipi-
ta:ely took to their carriages and drove off, pledging themselves
to conclude the matter elsewhere. The appearance of the
Police was, however, a mistake.
