and the issue was then left with the two. Regalia retained
her advantage to half way in the distance, when Cannon
brought up the favourite, and, quitting Regalia at the
enclosure, won with great ease by a couple of lengths ;

Dunsany last.

OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE BOAT RACE.

Yesterday the Cantabs rowed up from Putney to Mort-
lake on the flood, the Oxonians down on the ebb. The
friends of both parties were highly satisfied with the re-
sult. The Cantabs commenced their work at 30 strokes
per minute, and increased it to 35. The style certainly
might have been better, but the time kept was good.
There was a manifest improvement, particularly in the
latter part of the course, and in the rough water they had
to encounter by the wind setting against the tide. The
time occupied was 23min. 35sec. The time of the Oxonians
over the same course on the previous day was 24m. 30sec.,
but they had less tide, and whether more or less rough
water is a matter of dispute, although it is certain they had
a great deal. The Oxonians yesterday commenced their
rowing more rapidly than on former occasions. Their
stroke was slightly lengthened, and there was less pause
between the pulls. Their average throughout was 36
strokes per minute. Sometimes they were rowing 07, and
they increased them to about 39 at the conclusion. The
time was 20rn. 25sec. Some of those who took it made it
two or three seconds less. • There was a good ebb under
filo wind was much abaft. The followiug are
the present exact weights of the crews, which show the
effects of the training:—
