LONDON UNITY-ROWING CLUB.

This flourishing tradesmen's club closed their season
yesterday with two pair oared races for silver cur,
liberally presented by C. Morton, Eq., of the Canter-
bury Hall, Lambeth.
In order to give every member of the club a fair
chance of success the members were divided into two
classes, with a separate and distinct race for each class.
At half-past four o'clock the first class race was started,
consisting of the following pairs :
Blue—Jones and R. Ayckborne 1
White—T. Day and R. Miler
Red—G. Hirst and J. Amor
Black—R. Bain and C. Lockett
The distance was from the new bridge at Battersea to
Westminster-bridge.
After several false starts they at length got away,
white taking the lead, followed by black, and rod third.
After a few strokes a slight foul tirok placii between black
and rcd, • during which blue got second, and, after a
serer° struggle, succeedeit in wresting the leaf from
white nod maintained it to the firri4, winning the rises
by about three boat lengths ; white second, rod a good
third until coming through Vauxball-bridge, when they
were swamped by a steamboat, which quite put their
chance out,
At a quarter past six o'clock the following six pairs
of third and fourth class men came to their stations to
start for the eccond class race :
Blue—R. Jones and R. Green ... 1
White—W. Mills, jun., and E. Tulke... ...... 0
Green—C. Glenister and F. Miller 0
Black—E. Whittaker and R. Julian
Yellow—W. Mills, sen., and F. Knight 0
Red—W. Woodbridge and J. Burrows
The distance was the same as for the first race

After one false start the lot got away pretty well to•
getlier, blue taking the lead and maintaining it to the
cod, closely pressed by white, green being a good third.
The others tailed off considerably. Blue rowed in a boat
which was protested against by all the others as having
been barred from the race. It therefore remains for the
club to decide whether they are the winners or not.
Mr. W. Sanderson, who officiated as umpire, gave
