BOAT-RACE FOR £BO BETWEEN J. CLASPER, OF
NEWCASTLE, & FRANCIS OF TEDDINGTON.
When the match between Henry Clasper and Thomas
White was made it was arranged that a race should come
off next day between the son of the former, a lad of 20, and
Francis, of Teddington, apprentice to Messenger, also 20.
It was thought that the London man would be victorious,
and betting was 2 to 1 on him, although, as a smiler, he
had never distinguished himself ; while young Clasper, on
the contrary, had rowed against good men at Newcastle,
Norwich, and Manchester. The sequel, however, showed
that the backers of Francis had made a mistake, and that
he must improve wonderfully before he can beat a good
London man; while young Clasper looks as though he would
show well both in the provinces and on the Thames. The
usual amount of interest created when Newcastle is opposed
to Londonloccurred on this occasion, and two steamers en-
gaged to convey spectators were quite full. As on the pre-
vious day Mr. Leithead was umpire for Clasper, Jas. Mes-
senger for Francis, and H. Kelly, champion of the Thames,
referee. The toss having been won by Clasper, they took
up their places. At the going off Francis was slightly ahead,
but Clasper was Soon level with him, and after they had
rowed a quarter of a mile there was no doubt as to which
would win, for Clasper was then well ahead. Francis once
or twice put on a spurt, but Clasper immediately drew fur-
ther in advance, and ultimately came in an easy winner by
six lengths, performing the distance ins 24/ minutes. The
course was Putney to Mortlake.

THE MEMBERS FOR SHEFFIELD.—A meeting of
Messrs. Roebuck and Hadfield's committee was held on
Monday, to consider the propriety of inviting them to
address their constituents. A resolution was proposed to
the effect that it was inexpedient to ask the members to
come down until the basis of a Reform Bill had been agreed
upon. An amendment was moved, proposing that the
members be invited to come down as soon as possible.
Ultimately the motion was carried, that the members are
not to be invited at present. It was moved that a public
meeting be convened of the inhabitants of•the town on the
subject of Parliamentary Reform before the borough mom_
born bo invited, This was cardodt
