THE GREAT ROWING AQUATICS
MATCH BETWEEN

WORCESTER AND MANCHESTER.
WORCESTER, THURSDAY.—This event, which has been
the cause of considerable speculation of late in the aquatic
world, came off last evening on the river Severn, in the
neighbourhood of Worcester.
This watch was gat :iiiiihartly _after. the Worcester
Regatta, held about five weeks ago. The rivals were the
Manchester Shakspere'Cluboind the Worcester Intrepid
Club. Both of these 'clubs hiving _been victorious in
their own locality over, all the local crews, the question
of their relative merits was canvassed, and each having
their friends, a match was got up for a four-oared race
between them, the conditions being a stake of 501. a-
side, the course three miles down stream. No boat be-
ing allowed to cross into the other's water unless 50
feet clear ahead, the Worcester crew to give the Man-
chester 101. to meet them at Worcester. The event was
fixed for yesterday, and both crews went into severe
training. The Manchester four arrived in Worcester on
this day week, and were at work on the river on the
evening of their arrival. Both crews were watched
narrowly, and each having their backers, a great deal of
money was laid out in bets, though as the eventful day
approached the Manchester men had the call.
The course was from a point below Bevero Island
down to Worcester-bridge. At a quarter-past five
o'clock the rival boats took their stations, manned as
under:—
Shakspere (Manchester) Club—(Pink) I—Stroke, Mr.
Wood; 2, Mr. H. Ault; 3, Mr. M'Cormack; bow, Mr.
G. Collinge.

-
Intrepid
(Worcester) Club—(Purple) 2—Stroke, Mr.
Presder; 2, Mr. Laurence; 3, Mr. Turley; bow, Mr. Till.
The Manchester men were steered by a youth, and
the Intrepid by Maynard, of London. Both rowed in
beautiful outrigger boats, and each appeared in good
trim, and confident of success. Betting, at starting, was
3 to 2 in favour of the Manchester, who were expected
to win, though a very close struggle was anticipated.
After one false start, both boats were pretty fairly
under way, and it was at once perceptible that the Man-
chester men had the best of the start, the Intrepid losing
ground before they gOt into their regular swing. The
Manchester men rowed beautifully together, but the In-
trepid seemed flurried in getting off. The Intrepid, being
goaded on by their friends, who t.ccompanied the race in
large numbers, set-to with a will, and succeeded in bet-
tering their condition, though it was soon after evident
that they had already lost the race, their efforts telling
fearfully upon them, while their rivals pulled steadily
and with uniform strength. At the end of two miles,
Manchester led by five boats; lengths,and they kept their
