In petitions to the Court reasoned that the accused
had only committed crime technically; in reality,
considering the peculiar nature OF the case Its com.

had been broadly asserted previous to the Court
proceedings that Cutter was, In large Degree the

AQUATiCS.
The Athletic Club Boat Race.

Tno Atuleuc Club boat Race.
The New York Athletic Club was organized three
years ago. All OF its members are amateurs In the
sports engaged IN, which include almost all those OF
athletic character. Not only has the club gymna-
SUM In st. Marks place. but 1t has also leased thirty
lots on the Harlem River, near the Third avenue
bridge, and laid them out course for foot races
and as grounds for other outdoor games. on the
river are the boat houses, which well stocked.
foot race for the championship OF the club
took place yesterday. The contestants were f. j.
Hynes and N. L. Burris. The distance was half a
mile, three times over the course. Both the con-
testants attired in red Dress and looked fresh
and confident Burris, however, seemed the strong
er. He Is tall and finely formed. Hynes Is smaller
IN stature. The medal, which is gold, was won by
him In last May, over the same distance, IN
2:20. The conditions attached to It, as to
all the champion medals OF the club are
that it shall be held for two years by the winner,
subject TO the challenge OF any other member II Is
at length given to the one who has successfully held
1t against all corners for the prescribed time The
race yesterday was not very interesting. For the
first two rounds Hynes took the lead. His gait,
however did not seem so easy or 80 natural as that
OF Burrs, who at the last round came 10
the front. When half way around he distanced
Hynes by ifty feet, and on the homestretch
troted in 100 feet ahead without effort The result
caused the loss OF considerable money among the
friends OF Hynes, who was the favOrite. The time
made was 2:l5ai, an advance Of four and a
quarter seconds over that :, OF the last
race. The judges were II. E. Buermyer and
p. A. Curtis aud the referee was J. q. BaDcock.
At half past tive O'Clock all OF the members EN-
barked on board the Moses Taylor to witness the
shell boat race for the championship OF the club.

YALEs ministrations, enabling the Board
of Trustees to pay larger salary than
ever before.
1t is also, we understand, chiefly due
to Mr.. IALE's efforts that the building OF
"manse" by this church has become a
we'll determined project. We are in.

ready been appointed, and about 81 ,250
