TO THE BVITOR OF THE HeRALD. Newcastis-on-Tynw, July 6, 1866, Knowing that the contents of the English papers, which will reach you by this mail, will cause the friends of Mr. Hamill, and the general public of America, great Concern and disappointment, I hasten to place you in Possession 0 some important facts which have up to this time been only disclosed to a few, T copy you a few hurred notes of the proceedincs of the Tyne Aquatic Society, convened for the purpose of investigating a rumor which, within the last ‘ew hours, has gamed currency among some of their body, relating to the sculliag match between Mr. Hamill, the champion sculter of tie Uuited states of America, and Mr, Kelley, champion of Engiand, ‘M:. Oldman was called to the chair, when he said that the first question to be asked was, how was it that miil, in rowing over the co ree when training re putting fortn bis utmost exertions), could row the Wie tanco in six minutes less time than he did the first day ol the race, wien it was known there never was a man who tovk more care of hinself during his training and was more fit to yo through the ordeal on the morning of the race? He was in tiptop condition, Yet before he got over h's first three miles he was completely pumpod out, so much so that he contemplated giv.ug up the race. It would be simply absurd to think that he flanked after commg three thousand miles to row. Had he been @ novice ut the game this might bave accounted for it Then avain he was under the training of our odest Harry Clasper, A more knowing and upri: garding bouting, does not breathe, He knows: man, reg exactly “what every man, of any tmportance, can do, Thon why, after acting as the friend of Hamill, and supe rintending his trauiny, would he allow. him vo throw his money away, over and above what be mst necessarily lose iu the stakes? Why wonld he not get Hamill to hedge? There was room enough for that. No, it was pot bis fault, He so confidently ex ed hit to win that both bis money and that of ‘his fie went the same Way. the reason, and a more vil, mal cious and thievish pie ¢ of scoundrelism has never come before the eyes of any sporting poblic. An honest, confiding man coines three thousand miles to tow for the honor of his country, and that country, too, an offshoot from England—cousins, brothers, we may ‘say.
