AQUA TICS.

UNIVERSITY BOAT-RACE.

The University Boat-race, appointed for Saturday
next, the 9,7 th instn, is expected to be one of the greatest
matches on record, and is the theme of conversation in
aquatic circles and at the various Cube. Those who
have long witnessed rowing upon the Lis declare that a
fleer University crew was never seen at Oxford ; and
many who have of late vi-ited Cambridge speak in the
highest terms of the rapid progress of that crew. Since
they have been in the boat, indeed, their advancement
in style is declared to be surprising, and under such
circumstances it is no longer conjectured, as at first by
many, that the odds should be considerably in favour of
Ox'ord, although they ate still being backed very freely
at something more than evens. The following are the
crews, but as the weights appended to the Oxonians
were taken some days ago, they have probably altered
slightly. Some further difference in that respect will
neceeearly occur between uow and the day of rowing,
but in the same proportion with both.
