FOREIGN NEWS.

LONDON, April Sat the boat race
early in the forenoon unprecedented
crowds focked from every direction to
all points on the river from which o view
of the contest could be had. All traffic
on the river was suspended. Both crews
we're in splendid form. From the guam
tity of light blue displayed by the crowd
congregated to witness the race, 1t was
evident that with the public Cambridge
was the favorite. Oxford won the toss
for choice of positions, and chose the
middle for the start. Cambridge otaway
first by rowing thirty-seve strokes per
minute. but very steadily; Oxford con-
menced with thirty-five strokes. With
out any apparent effort Cambridge drew
clear away in the first quarter of a
mile, but at Cravens' Point Oxford d.
minished the lead to quarter of the
length, when Oxford was rowing thirty
six rows, and both quickened slightly.
The crab tree, mile and furlong from
the starting point, was reached in four
minutes and fifty-eight seconds. Both
crews now settled down to steady work.
Hammersmith bridge, four furlongs fur
Their on, was reached in eight minutes
and thirty-one seconds, with Cambridge
q clear length ahead. At Dover, two
furlongs from Hammersmith bridge,
Cam bridge was still further ahead, and
the race was virtually over. Cambridge
rowed on steadily increasing lead to two
or three lengths at Chiswick Church.
At Barnes, Oxford made last struggle,
quickening the stroke to a little over
forty, but the boat did not answer to
this squirt, and Cambridge quickened hel
stroke slightly and kept fully three
lengths ahead. Barnes bridge, tbrs.
miles and a half from the starting point
was reached in sixteen minutes and forty
eight seconds, from which the boat
rowed on uniformly. The ship WA
reached ct twenty-five minutes and thirty
six seconds past two o'clock. OXFORD

The PAssovER.- evening at sum
down Was commenced the Jewish Fes-
tival of "the Passover or the feast OF
Unleavened Bread" lasting one week,
which, according to the Hebrew Calendar
is in the Month Nissan, answering to
April according to our calendar. The
law of the Jewish Church says that seven
days every year We are commanded to
eat unleavened bread to the exclusion of
all ordinary bread, or thing made of or
mixed with corn, in memory of the
mighty wonders wrought in our favor
when We were redeemed from Egypt.
The first and seventh days are strict
festivals when no work can be done, the
second is also kept as day OF abstin-
ence. The wonders wrought in Egypt
as spoken of above, were the numerous
plaques brought upon Egypt by God for
holding the Israelitss in bondage, the
last of which was that in the night OF
the fourteenth day of the Month Nissan,
all the first born of Egypt died, from the
first born of the king even to the cattle.
Only the houses of the Isrealitss, in
which the Passover sacrifice was brought
escaped. King Pharoh then requested
Moses to depart with the people oil
Israel from Egypt. not even giving them
time to leaven the dough prepared for
bread SO that the Israelites were com.
PEELED 10 take it with them unleavened
and unbaked. God also commanded the
Israelites to commemorate their delivery
from Egypt every year by the celebration
of the Festival of the Passover.
