Aguatic short.---The great boat race
which was run in the bay opposite New
Yor. on Friday last for purse OF $4,000
was performed in "a minutes, the distance
being about four and half miles. The con-
test was between the Whitehall and Staten
Island watermen; the former of whom
were victorious. Each boat was manned
with four lusty oarsmen, who, for the honor
of their calling cxerted every muscle to
win the palm. In speaking OF the contest,
the New York Statesman syas, that for
about two miles the race was closely and
beautifully contested, prov to PROV and
inch by inch. The Whitehall Boys then
stretched to their oars for the evergreen
pine" with most lusty sinews, and gradually
gained on their rivals to the end of the
race, coming out between 40 and 60 yards
ahead, and performing the four and hall
miles in 24 minutes. The victor boat wheel
ed about Immediately, and after having re
ceivcd from the judges the triumphal flag
proceeded to Whitehall, where she was Ia
ken from the water and borne in triumph tt
the area of Castle Garden.

Thompsons island, is shortly to be aban-

lives of so many excellent officers who have
fallen martyrs to the diseases incident to

Representation ofa change q Tei"d.-A
writer in late number of the Philosophical
Magazine says-"Having frequently anus
ed myself on fine evenings in summer, with
a very large kite, in order to watch the dli-
ferent currents of wind in the air, ha'i &C
casion to notice the following curious fact
that when,a kite on mounting very high ac-
ouirel different direction from getting lnta
a different current of air, the wind usually
blew from the same quarter on the earth''
surface before the expiration OF "a hours
Thus the changes of wind take place IN the
higher regions Of the air, and are proopagat-
ed downwart!s. have confirmed tins ex'
pertinent, and established the fact, by tho
use of small air balloons, but the Kite an
swcrs the purpose quite as well"
