COMMENTS OF THE ENGLISH PRESS.

COMMENTS OF THE ENGLISH PRESS.
The Euglish press on Saturday commented
on the race at length:
The Times, reviewing the contest, says:
"The iuferiority Of the Americans was in q
most pardonable point-the steering: Their
eoxswain undoubtedly lost ground, but not
enough to account for the distance between
the boats at the end OF the race. Until the
Americans retrieve this defeat, they must &C.
knowledge that our style ofrowiDg is the best.
The Americans met with perfectly far play,
and if the Englishmen go to America they wall
meet with similar treatment. May all our
future international struggles be conducted in
the same spirit. aud 8hich ever side wins may
the vanqushed have as little reason to feel
regret for their defeat"
The News declares, if the Harvards did not
command success, they deserved it. and hopes
the American yachtmen on the Atlantic may
aveuge the noble defeat Of their countrymen.
The Star saws: "The Americans will long
remember the chivalric bearing Of their oppo-
nents, who. though resolved to wIn, never for
got that the Harvards were foemen worthy OF
their oars. The strife between New and Old
England, on the river from which the Pilgrim
Fathers started, has o historic side, and ap-
peais to the imagination OF the youth OF both
countries. II New England had won, the older
country would have shared in the triumph OF
its descendants. The fates decided otherwlse.
We are sure that the Harvards would sooner
be beaten By US than by any other nation on
the globe"
