• GREAT ROWING MATCH.

The scullery' race between Cole, of Chelsea, and
Chitty, which has for some time past
created (t.'. he.Ricm(h)ina°
t ndlively interest in the rowing circles,
came off yesterday afternoon, and was one of the most
spirited contests upon record. The competitors are
well known to our aquatic readers as the two beet new
men of last season, whose pretensions as fresh candi-
dates fir aqutitic fame were then first brought into no-
tice, Cole being the winner of Doggett',i coat and badge,
and Chitty as the successful competitor for the coat,
badge, and freedom annually given by Mr. Evan Morris
at iLe Thames regatta. This, as ri el 1 as the " famous
comedian':;" bequest, has for years pest brought out th•
he, t young men of the day, and as a diversity of opinion
existed with respect to pre-ernieence, both men soon
found backers, and the race of yesterday was the result.
The match w as for 50/., the distance from Putney-bridge
to the Ship at Mortlake, and there had 13,,(n no
less than three steamers chartered
,to accompany
it—the Childe. Harold, Lalla Rookh, and . Citiaan
K—which conveyed those desirous of 'witness-
inethe event. The men went to the stations shortly
before three o'clock—Chitty in the Middlesex side of the
centre arch of Putney-bridge, and his opponent at the
other. Both appeared in cspital condition, Chitty
having an advantage in length and size. They started
at the same instant and evenly, but owing to the 'peed at
which the first two or three strokes were taken by Cole
he had to pati,e for a moment while his extremely light
boat righted her,ell. Chitty took a slight lead, but
half a-dozen dasliiti4 strokes of Cole's, soon brcmght
them together, and then a most detarglined aPd beau-
Val race followed. Off the Star and Gitrter. Cole. bad
the nose of 114 boat about three feet in, adVaime of the
other, in which position, or nearly 50, they retnainrd for
the next three or four 'ninnies, bus on nearing the point
Chitty put on a fine spurt aud again tuck lead,°_,s_le/P__tel in
but in the neit few theystrokeLlin
pace,we r

which position, rowing
right up to the Crab-tree; at
aChittygagai wade 's, gallant
was but raotnentary—From this
point, Cole went steadily by degrees in,advance, mid ulti-
mately won by seven ng . ths.

puG/Lism.—T. DAVIES AND FIAMNIETI LANE, Or
BIRMINGHAM, FOR 1001.-I'he interesting contest between
the veteran John Lane, who for nearly ten years has reposed
upon A 1 is laurels, pursuing the busy occupation of an L. V., in
the .‘ hardware metropolis," and Tom Davies, of the same bo-
rough, took place yesterday, near
~App)eby HOuse, 26 miles
from Birmi gham. A gallant battle of 39 rounds, occupy-
ing 1 hour and 7 minutes, terminate' in the defeat of the re-
nowned Hammer Lane, who displayed but few of the qualities
in hitting, rallying, and in-fighting, which onte distinguished
him. Yet the true courage and endurance were there, and he
at last succumbed only to superior atreugth, youth, and con-
stitution. The general feeling,' almost 'prejudice, was so
strong in favour of the lasing man, that '2 to 1 went begging at
the commencement of the affair.

Ac thjs annual me±ting of the South Australian
Banking Company the report and accounts were adopted,
and a dividend was declared at the rate of 6 per cant., free
of income-tax. Mr. E. Divett, M.P., presided, and replied
to a variety of interrogatories put by.a shareholder, who
complained of insufficiency of information, as, the accounts
were at present furnished. The views, expressed by the
chairman were generally concurred in, and on behalf of the
board it was further explained, that while they were exer-
eking every needful economy, the business of the bank was
steadily increasing, and the gross results afforded cause for
congratulation. The usual complimentary votes to directors
and officers were then passed, and before the close of the
meeting a tribute was paid to Mr. AugeAd,vho has been long
closely: identified with South. Australia and its progress, he
being about to return to the colony to take up his permanent
residence.

A letter from Stettin states that the amount of
yellow amber collected this year has been unusually great.
Almost the whole quantity obtained was aslnnee bought up
for Englaud.
