SCULLERS' RACE FOR 501.
A scullers' race for 251. a side came off yesterday, over
the usual below-bridge course, from Woolwich to Lime-
house, the competitors being Thos. Cannon, of Wapping,
and G. Rice, of Litnehouse, both watermen who have
frequently distinguished themselves below bridge. Rice
is about 36 years of age, some eight or nine years older
than his opponent, and consequently lacked the strength
of Cannon—strength which was so necessary yester•
day, as the greater part of the distance was rowed
against a dead wiser. The Fairy, Captain Alcock, ac-
companied the race, and was well filled with the friends
of both parties, who were very confident of their men,
and betting was tolerably level, although many did not
think that Rice would pull through the surf. On board
the accompanying steamer were the umpires—Thomas
Day for Cannon, Thomas Samson for Rice, and
Mr. Kitchener referee. Betting was on Cannon
just before the start, which was taken beautifully by
both. Rica then took a slight lead, but his opponent was
with him directly and they were scull-and-scull for a few
hundred yards, when Rice again drew away. Cannon
again presently came up, but catching a crab, his oppo-
nent again passed him. In this way, with alternate leads,
they rowed for a mile and a half, when, the labour being
all on that side, Rice's right hand gave way, and Can-
non went by him in a moment. After this, Rice did not
stand the least chance, as he could,hardly use his right

arm, and his opponent won as he liked. The winner
was shown up by Wm. Myers, and trained at Mr.
Davis' coffeehouse, Woolwich.
