T o MATCH BETWEEN KELLEY AND
SADLER.

These old opponents and fellow-oarsmen and litigants
are once more to meet on the Thames. The stakes agreed
for We £2OO a side, and Thursday, July 14, is named as
the day for the race. It is to be hoped in the interests
of young watermen who aspire to high position in their
calling that nothing will arise to disturb the even tenour
of the match, and that the objectionable legal proceed-
ings which were caused by their last meeting will not as
before sow distrust among the ranks of Thames watermen,
and bring into derision a sport that ought to be without
blemish. Kelley has done so well of late in his match
with Bright on the Tyne, and in his forfeit which
Renforth gave him, that he will want but a steady amount
of work to be once more fit. We would rather see the race
take place under the laws of the Thames Regatta, which
the Northerners have adopted for their international race
with the New Brunswickers in September, but one of the
most stringent conditions of the Thames Regatta laws has
been adopted as regards the jurisdiction of the umpire,
so that a fair race is in view.
