THE GREAT MATCH FOR THE SCULLING CHAU-
PIONSirtP. —Brown has replied to Hamill's challenge, by a
brief acceptance—the race to be rowed on the Hudson, five
miles, for $2,000 a side. The long and muddy controversy
which ensued upon the late match for the championship
has left everybody very much in doubt as to who is the
bettor man—Brown or Hamill, although Brown is officially
the champion; consequently, it would be well for bo
take
up their oars to train for tho coming contest, which will
bring the matter to a final and sa
fatisfactory conclusion.
Brown has shown his willingness, in ct, eagerness, to make
the match, by yielding to Hamill the choice of water, amount
of stakes, and distance. Hamill will probably be equ
generous when the preliminaries are arranged, by asaibLing
to remove all obstacles iu the way of a satisfactory adjust-
ment.— Wit Zee's Spirit ~/the Times.
RAILWAY COMPANIES V. WELSHERS.--There
have been two large captures of the betting fra-
ternity at Reading for attempting to defraud railway aces at
com-
panies by travelling without tickets. After the ra
Oxford on Thursday evening there was
a great rush et the
Great Western Railway station to
get o ff by the special
train, and the officials were satisfied that setrainvera left
l had
entered carriages without tickets. After the
Oxford the superintendent of the station telegraphed to
his fellow-officer at Reading to collect tickets. On the
arrival of the train at the last-mentioned place the rail-
way officer called out "Collect tickets." The adoption of
this procedure led to the discovery of eight persons being
without tickets ; they were accordingly taken into custody
and lodged in the cells of the Reading police-station for the
night. On Friday morning they were taken before Cap-
tain Purvis and Mr. Andrews, two magistrates for the
borough, and charged with attempting to defraud the
railway company'. The eight were convicted. Six were
ordered to pay a penalty of 40s. each and costs, and a
man and his bon 12 years of age, ascertained to be very
poor, were fined is. and costs. The penalty of 40s. and
costs was paid by ono Edward Smith,

Reading gaol for a fortnight. The other capture w effected
at the South Western Station at Reading on Wednesday.
The party had attended Egham races on that day, and

was convoyed toll racknell station of some having entered
the carriages witut payment of the fares, and when the
train arrived there the small staff of officials were afraid to
effect any capture from fear of being overpowered.
thereupon locked the doors and allowed the train to proceed,
adopting the precaution to telegraph to Reading. At this
place there was a good number of officers in atten

day wore taken before the magistrates at Wokingham. In
default of payment of the fines imposed they were com-
mitted to gaol for 14 days.—Pail-Mall Gazette.
DEATH OF THE WIDOW MACHREE.—The fatuous
chestnut mare by American Star, the Widow Ilachree, is
dead, and as she was one of the gamest that ever looked
through a bridle,—following in that prime particular her
noted sire, who was as tough as laminated steel,—it is
fitting that she should have honourable mention. The
Widow was a small, light-boned mare, but fall of fire and -
obstinate perseverance to the bitter end,
which often
snatches victory out of the gaping jaws of defeat. She
was very fast, she was up to weight, and she could trot all
day. Hiram Woodruff had such an opinion of the Widow
that he esteemed her next to Peerless among the daughters
