THE INTERNATIONAL SCU LLERS' MATCH
BETWEEN ROBERT CHAMBERS AND JOSHUA
WARD.

l~t
Ikes's Spirit of the Times, of Jan. sth, says :—" We
are glad to be able to announce that the proposed match
between the Champion oarsman of our Hudson River,
Joshua Ward, and Chambers, Champion of England, is
about as good as made. The letter of Mr. Wilkinson, the
'Acker of Chambers, to Mr. James Farish, empowering
hitt to make the match, was published in our edition of the
15th of last month. The terms proposed by the backer of
Chambers were as follows :—The match to be for 2,500 dols.
aside, to be rowed upon the Hudson River in the spring.
The distance to be a straight pull of five miles with the
Stream, and the Englishmen to be allowed 500 dole. for his
expenses in coming over here. Mr. Wilkinson also wished
that the editor of this paper should be the stakeholder. Mr.
Parish called upon us last week with the response ho has
received from Joshua Ward. He agrees to the proposed
terms with sue exception. Instead of the stakes being 5,000
dols., as Mr. Wilkinson proposed, our man wishes to row
for 4,000, 2,000 aside. This is a sum large enough, and we
do not expect that Chambers and his backer will insist upon
the other 500 dols a-side. Mr. Palish will promptly forward
the response of Ward to England, and in the course of a
few weeks we shall no doubt be able to announce that the
articles have been drawn up and signed, and deposits
staked. This will be a splendid opening for the aquatic
season in this country, and it will be a gala day on our
beautiful river, never surpassed since the adventurous
11eadrik Hudson and his men ascended the stream. We
have already indications of the vast interest and excitement
It Will create among our oarsmen and nautical people, who
eeatinue to express the utmost confidence in our champion,
ward, The co-operation of all our boat-racing clubs and
Penemen will make the day of the race a magnificent holi-
day, and the beauty and fashion of New York will certainly
be afloat on the occasion. In order that the match may go
111' and be, in due season, brought to a gallant conclusion,
strong itvite all the brethren of the oar to give "along pull, a
Pull, and a pull altogether 1"
