ROWING MATCH.—At feven o'clock yenerday even-
ing Dogget's Coat and Badge was flailed for by fix
pair s of limits, pulled by fo many yeung men who were
out of their rime within the lag twelve-months. The
reafon of their felting off fo late was, that they might
have to work against tide the whole of the way.—
There was a great deal of fouling between the candi-
datestwhile they were below bridge, which might pro-
bably have delayed them a quarter of an hour ; but
Johnflon, who won the Vauxhall wherry the day be-
fore, took the lead a thort dillance above Weltmin-
der. He continued on the Milbank fide where there
was the molt flack water almoft all the way up, and
came up to the Swan at Chelfea a minute and a half.
1 before the fecond and third boats, thofe of Matron and
Wood, and then was declared the victor. Several
bets were laid againft him, as it was thought too much
for him to row for prizes two days following.
MATCH AGAINST TIM five o'clock on Mon-
day afternoon, a Gentleman of Hull Ratted from that
town to ride one hundred and eighty miles on the
Beverly Road, in twenty-four hours. He performed
the diftance with perfed cafe by half pall nine on
Tuefday morning. He was allowed feven hor fes, but
did tint find it neceffary to ufe more than five, and
even tour would have been fufficient, had not one of
the honks been lamed by the lofs of a fhoe.
Tuefday afternoon a journeyman carpenter, for a
trifling wager, undertook to leap over a ditch in the
Folly Fields, Peckham; but leaping (bort, his brealt
!truck againft a chevaux-de-frize, which broke a
blood-veilel, when he died about an hour afterwards.
He was taken to the neara public-houfe for the Co-
roner's Inqueft.
Cattosisit's Itißlissy.—Yellerday morning, at ele-
ven o'clock, an inquelt was held before Mr. Jew ram,
Coroner for Surrey, on the body of Thomas Monto-
lieu, Efq. deceafed. The &It witnefs examined was
Robert Burnlide,of the Box-office, at Allley'sTheatfe,
who depofed, that the deceafed and another perfon
came to the Theatre about a quarter pall fix o'clock
on Tuefday evening; the deceafed gave the witnefs
half a guinea to pay for their joint admiffion, when,
as he was giving him the change, he perceived the
deceafed put his hand acrofs his eyes, as if feized with
a giddinefs, and almolt intlantly fell againft the door,
and from thence on the ground ; the witnefs imme-
diately ran to affift in railing him from the ground,
and he appeared to recover a little, but relapfed into
feveral fainting fits while feated on a chair. Medical
affiitance was called in, but in the courfe of ten mi-
nutes he expired. He was then conveyed to the New
Inn Coffec-honfe,oppofire the Theatre.—Mr.Penting-
ton, the Apothecary's aflulant, who lives near the
(pot, depofed, that on being fent for, he found Mr.
Montolieu feated in a chair at the Theatre, infenfible
and inwardly convulfed ; he adminiflered fome me-
dicine, but without effed, and in about ten minutes
he expired. He had no hefitation in declaring, that
the deceafed met with his death from an attack of the
gout in his Itomach. He bad underflood that the
unfortunate gentleman was much affirded with it for
fome time previous to his death. A relation of the
deceafed attended, and Rated, that the family were
fatisfied that his death was in cbnfequence of the
gout, for which malady his phyfician had recum
mended the Bath waters as a remedy. The Jury,
under the diredion of the Coroner, gave in Cncir vet-
dia—Ditil dy iho imitation of GoD. • '.
