AQUATICS.

DOGGETT'S COAT AND BADGE.

Tho annual contest for this old-established boat race
came off this afternoon. The course was from the "Swan"
at London Bridge to the "Swan" at Chelsea.
In addition to the livery and badge the first man
receives a guinea from the Fishmongers' Company,
the fourth man a guinea an:l a half, tad the fifth and
sixth a guinea each from the same source. The second
and third men have long been provided for, the former
having 17s. 91, and the latter V 183. 91., interest of
Three per Cents. Reduced, formerly South Sea Stock, be-
queathed by Sir William Juliffe.
Exactly at four minutes after three a goad start took
place. Taylor, of Lambeth, who had been under the train-
ing of Bob Bain, took the lead, bat on nearing
Southwark Bridge the blade of 038 of his sculls
broke, which completely extinguished any chalice
he may have had. Maxwell, of the Custom-house, then
took the lead, closely followed by Shaw. The rest of the
race is easily described, as Sliiw, in consequence of the
b•id position he obtained at starting, was never able to
overhaul Maxwell, and was beaten easily by about thirty
yards. The others came straggling in, the list of all being
Newell of Hursleydewn; whose boat filled with water
every two or three minutes, which had to be bailed out.
The following is the order in which they arrived at the
winning post :

Henry William 11axw311, Custom-houso 1
Charles Shaw, R Wierhith
William John Taylor, Lambeth 3
Richard Deering, Legal-quays
Thomas Hitchcock, Lambeth 5
James Robert Newell, Horsleydown 6

Maxwell was loudly cheered ou his victory; but it was
the general opinion that Shaw ought to have won if he
had been properly piloted up the river.

Bain and Clasper have just completed a splendid four-
oared cutter-rigged boat for the Amateur Gentlemen's
Club of York.

ASSAULT BY TRADES UNIONISTS.—At Sheffield
on Tuesday Thomas Dean and Henry Dean, brothers, file-
cutters, were charged with having assaulted Thomas Tim-
parley, a file-cutter. The assault arose out of a long
standing dispute with the union at Messrs. Turton's
works. The complainant was accosted, as ho alleged, by
the defendants and another man on the road. lie stated
that from words they proceeded to violence—tore his hair,
destroyed his umbrella, and chased him into a house where
he took refuge. The bench fined defendants 40s. each and
costs.
The Liverpool Albion gives currency to a rumour
that a servant girleliving neat Liverpool, has unexpectedly
come into a fortune of £200,000 by the death of a relative
in one of our colonies.
THE WAR IN ABTSSINIA.—We understand that,
although Sir William Coghlan's plan for operations to be
undertaken with a view to effecting the liberation of the
prisoners in Abyssinia has been adopted by the ttovernment,
the command of the expedition will probably be intrusted
either to Sir William Staveley, now commanding a brigade
at Poona, or to Colonel Merewether, the political agent at
Aden.—The Owl.
MISSING SHIP.—The Samuel C. Grant, from
Baker's Island for the United Kingdom, was spoken on the
9th of February, in lat. 11 N., long. 31 W., and has Lot
since been heard of.
SHEFFIELD, July 31.—An aggregate meeting of
trades unions was held this evening at Sheffield, to pass
resolutions expressing abhorrence of the trade outrages.
The resolutions were adopted by the meeting, which con-
sisted of less than 300 persons.
SOUTHAMPTON, Wednesday.—The hamburg-
American Company's screw steamship Germania, Captain
H. F. Schwenson, from New York on the 20th of July,
arrived off Cowes early this morning, trans-61144)A mails,
elc., for this port, and went on to Hamburg. Sand he brougforht
18 passengers for Southampton and Havre,
90
Hamburg; $70,000 for Franco, $17,200 for Hamburg, and
a large cargo, including 525 bags of coffee, 155 bales cotton,
and 525 cases of tobacco. Fine weather was experienced
on the voyage, with southerly and easterly winds. On the
30th, in lat. 49 40 N., long. 7 58 W., the Germania spoke
the barque Apollo, bouud west, and six miles westbound
Eddystone she passed the Bremen barque Batavia,
east.
NATIONAL REFORM UNION.— A meeting of the
executive was held on Tuesday i
night n the Council-
chamber, Gladstone-buildings, Mancheser; Mr. R. D.
Itusden, the tress .rer, occupying the chair. After the
adoption of the minutes, and the transaction of the
routine business of the company, a spirited conversation
took place respecting the proeee ings in reference to the
Reform Bill in the House of Lords on the previous night.
A strong feeling was expressed that the Government had
shown a gross breach of faith by tho course which it had
pursued in raising the .£3 copyhold qualification to £lO,
and in altering the qualification Cu: the lodger franchise
of
fotmhe £l,loousteo
Commons.
000persIitt wasio felt by thentotherecent
of
decision
committee
that the bill, as passed by the 03111310113, was already
limited enough, without being mutilated, and made more
restrictive, by any action of the peers. On the termination
of the conversation, the following resolution was proposed,
seconded, and carried :—" This committee regrets to learn
that the House of Lords, in committee last night, passed
resolutions calculated to restrict the franchise propcsod in
the Government Reform Bill, which is already limited and
unjust in its provisions; and this committee would urge
upon the House of Commons to reject the. said so-called
amendments, and any others which may be prop sed, de-
signed to render the bill more narrow and partial than at
present."
Voltaire, whose frail body was enveloped in a
vast pelisse, but whose eyes still gleamed magically
bright from banoath the big Louis Quitorza wig of black
wool which—surmounted by a red cap trimmed with fur
—shaded his thin cheeks, came back to Paris to be madly
worshipped by the psople; to be embraced, in public,
wn
by
the American R publican, Dr. Franklin ; to be dra
along the streets iu a sky-blue chariot withave ghieold
stars, like a triumphal car in a pitatomina o h
bust crowned with laurels by nymphs at the theatre where
his put pieces were performed; to deliver au address at
the Academy, scarcely a word of which could be heard
because of overwhelming applause ; to have the house he
dwelt in thronged by worshippers, to whom the crowd
outside looked for news as to whether ho had eaten the
white of au egg, or had put the finishing touches to his
last play ; to poison himself by an overdose of opium
which he took to calm his nerves, super-excited by adula-
tion; and, just before this lest event, to be rn3ivad as a
demigod at the PAais Royal.—The Gentleman's Magaz;ee.
