with Tiny, who won by several yards. Third heat—
Tiny took the lead a tremendous bat, and the
backers of The Stag began to look blue. Tiny
was 50 yards ahead half-way round; The

CANDLISH AND CLASPER'S MATCH. —The smilers
maten b-t.seen James Candiish and Richard Clasper
(both of Newcastlf-on-Tyne) to row from the High
Level-bridge to Seotswood Chain-bridge, for 501. a side,
was appointed for Monday last, but in consequence of
there being a heavy swell on the Tyne that day, it was
not rowed until Tuesday. At two o'clrck the men came
to their stations, two of' the pillars cf the High Level
Bridge having been selected for that purpese. As the
wind was blowing strongly from the west, it was very
much doubted whether the beets would live in the
swell, which grew gradually worse as the race pro-
gressed. The men having backed their boats right
out of the current, back to the piles of the bridge, a most
beautiful start was effected, Clasper having about half a
length the advantage up to the Mansion Howe, when
Candlish gradr' Le drew upon him, and passed him. He
centinned about 60 yards ahead to the Little Annie,
when Clasper improved his position a trifle but at the
head the meadows Candlish again got further away
from his opponent. Their position varied very little from
this point to the finish, Candlish finally passing under the
suspension bridge at Scostwood an easy winner by at
least 150 yards. He rowed in Mr. Wardesan'e boat, the
Heatherbell, and Clasper in his brother's new boat, the
Nonpareil. Six steamers accompanied the race, and the
interest evinced by the immense multitude assembled td
witness the contest was equal to that of H. Clasper and
Itaddison's match. The lii3tance was rowed in 27f min.
