SOULLERS' RACE FOR £lO,

A very spirited boat race was rowed yesterday, between
Charles Hawkins, of Westminster, and William Johnson,
of Pimlico, for the above amount (t 5 a-side), from West-
minster-bridge to Battersea-bridge. Hawkins had the best
station, on the Middlesex side, but his opponent was the
favourite at 5 and 6 to 4. The umpires and a referee having
been appointed, the men got to their stations.
In getting away Hawkins had a slight advantage, but it
was trifling and momentary, and then his opponent became
scull-and-scull, and off Lambeth-pier had drawn his stern=
post level with Hawkins's thwart. The pace was exceed-
ingly good, but Johnson continued to draw his boat gra-
dually away, and, maintaining the lead throughout, went
in a gallant winner by nearly three lengths. His opponent's
spurts were very good, but only lasted a short time, but in
Coto his was one of the pluckiest stern wagers ever seen.
PAIR OARED RACE FORISILVER CUPS.
A very interesting pair-oared race for the above prizes
was rowed on Thursday afternoon, among the members of
the Fulham Unity Club. The distance was from Chelsea
to Putney, the following being the results :

H. Webb, coxswain.
White 0
Mr. Campbell. Mr. Johnstone.
F. Clark, coxswain.
Red and White were the favourites, White having the
best station.

A capital start was effected, Red taking the lead, which
they maintained throughout, closely pressed by Blue, who
were only defeated by a length, Blue beating Pink by a
length and a half. The race for third place was very
spirited, Pink only beating White by half a length.
