AQUATICS.
BARTLETT AND ROYAL.—These two men are matched by the
patrons of river sports to row a scullery' wager, the usual crack dis-
tAtiee from Westminster Bridge to PUtney. It will be decided on
I;sriday next. Little is known of the men, particularly Bartlett, but.
those who have had an excellent opportunity of witnessing their
prowess declare that men inure even could not possibly have been
pitted against each other. Betting is 5t04 oo Bartlett, but there

" Tales of the Ramad'han." " This ought to be the most
successful book of its class that has appeared during the pre-
sent season ; for ourselves, we declare that none has afforded
us so much pleasure.• The tales are rich in variety, in highly
wrought scenes, and in true delineations of 'the peculiar man-

with the fruitful streams of his imagination the rich soil he
was to render prodUctiVe, and has succeeded in creating a
work which, for vividness of fnney, elegance of mind, and
purity of style, may compete with its most successful contem-
poraries in the same field of literature."— Court Magazine.
Tile length of paved streets in England and Wales
is 20,000 miles ; that of the roads which are not paved is
100,000 miles. The extent of the turnpike-roads is about
30,000 miles.
OPENING OF SHEERNESS NEW PlER.—Yester-

national airs. The procession Was saluted by the firing of
guns from the vessels off iihore,feux-de,," ioie from the heights.
the ringing of bells, and the cheerful shouts of the assembled
Topulaca, in the afternoon an interesting regatta for various
