OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE BOAT RACE.

PurszY, 1.30 p.m.
Although the absence of Mr. Mellor from the Cambridge
boat has been generally looked upon as detrimental to
theii chance of success, we have a contrary opinion. Ur.
Still, his successor, brings with him the experience of
three years' good form, and if he be not in thorough eon_
clition, he is better a little too flashy than too finely
trained.

The Cantabs went out in pairs this morning, Mr. Geo.
Morrison stearing. They will take to the eight at 3.30.
The Oxonians went out at 12, accompanied by Mr. R.
W. Risley, their coach ; he took them on the head of low
water as far as the top of the Eorseshoe Bight, opposite
Craven, and on their coming down against the flood
the crew rowed as high as 41 strokes per minute
beautifully. They eased 200 yards above the boathouses
and then paddled home. The rowing was splendid, and,
if we may particularise, that of Messrs. Benson, Finn 6,
and Willan was very near perfection. The crew show
great pace when asked to do so, and with it they combine
elegance of rowing to perfection of smog, and all catch
hold of the water at the right part of the stroke.

SCULLERS' RACE FOR £2OO.

THIS DAY.

This afternoon Mark Addy, of Manchester, and William
Sadler, of Putney, rowed their scullers' race from Putney
to Mortlake for £lOO aside in outriggers. Both have ap-
peared to great advantage on previous occasions, and a very
large number of pc.isous witnessed the contest. Addy VMS
the favouriie at 6 to 4; Mr. H. Szher, the boat-builder,
was referee. _

........,...........
Addy won the toss, and went away to the load at great
pace. He was never headed, and wox by several lengths.

FENIANISM.

Mr. C. FORTESCUE, in reply to Lord John Hay; said
ho very much regretted the language that had been attri-
buted to the Rev. ➢ir. Shanahal, who had been repotted
to have expressed his sympathy for the Fenian prisoners.
There were, however, other portions of the speech which
very much mitigatsd, the force of the portion referred to.
Ile might term the language heedless rhetoric. (Laughter)
Cardinal Cullen, had, however, warned the clergy not to
receive or authorise collections for the Fenian prisoners
beicg made in the Roman Catholic chapels on SL Patrick's
Day.

cided on.
