The first story is devoted entirely to the stowage of boats, oars and fittings, and the numerous cralt can now be_ seen carefully put away, in fine condition, availabie for instant use. Tie sec- ‘ond story is. occupied for the club rooms, und Handsome apartinent, hung with pictures of as contests, regattas, famous oarsmen, marine scenes and various céiebrated characters who have earned renown. Adjoiming this room and overiooking ihe river is au aparument gited up with numerous lockers, filled with rowing paraphernalia. Outboard is the balcony. This is a fair type of all boat houses. They are situated at various points along the snores of the North river.

They all have straight looms and huides, “Oars are twelve to thirteen fect long and cost from $5 io $8 a piece. Sculls are eight, nine or tea fect long and bring from $5 to $8 a pair. THE STYLE OF ROWING IN NEW YORK is peculiar to these wa'ers. It 1s the sane as that employed by the Ward brothers, and var es from tury Six to forty-two strokes per minute, Le! the rea ler ob-erve that rowing, actually aualyze. One of the most delicate of ail aria. It looks easy, but it works hard. It seems plain sailing, but it is very dificult palling. ‘The stroke, as observed by the Hudson Amateur Association, induces long strokes and deep water. Old rowers disbelieve in surfa skimming, but agree that a good hold cau be ob- tained without poiating the oar to the centre of the earth. Erect pulling, as pract\se | by the Harvards, ts condemned about New York. It is too sirained, joo artificial, and may be very good in the absence of demonstration, Tie natural position is with the Bightly curved, te chest thrown out, the arms at a good ievel, in order to give a clear reach io the blade forward, its correct immersion in the water, its proper resistance against the element, a quick recovery and a rapid recurrence of the stroke. In rowing, @ man pulls first with his arms and then he assists the impulse by the weight of his body, when his legs, feet and whole sysiem are wrongit into a splendid tension, which makes the eye gleam with the fire and the check joyful with a carmine hue, No two men pull alike. Each has his peculiarity, This is true the world over, and the great considera- tion In selecting a crew is that the men should row together as nearly as possible, or else the boat will dive to starboard or port_at every intensified effort remaining unbalanced. The style of rowing this year will excel anything before known in this country. CONTEMPLATED RACES. The Hudson Amateur Association at their last meeting sent an invitation and challenge to the Lon- don Rowing Association to visit this country during the present season, as follows:— New York, April 90, 1870, To THE MeMurns or THz LONDON RowING CLUB :— GRENTLEMEN—The Hudson Amateur Rowing Association, an organization comprising the principal rowing clubs of the cities of New York, Jersey City, Hoboken amd Albany, as well as clubs of other localities ‘on the Hudson river, have resolved, at a Seopa eal the Boa.d or Dele; to invite a six-oared crew, members of your clit), to visit this clty and compete with a selected crew of the association, on or about the Ist of October next. ‘The course to be three miles, one ‘and a half mile to a stake boat und return, to be rowed over the Associa:ion Course on the Hudson’ river, and to be optional with either crew to carry or dispense with a cox- awain. The contestants to be subject tothe following iaw of our Jon:—""No man who has rowe!! for money, of has rowed in regattas open to all comers, or has been at any time ready or wiling to be matched for money against any oars- man shall be allowed to row in any race under the auspices Of this association.” 4n communicating to you this action of our association tt may not, we trust, be improper to atate that the result of the late contest between the Oxford and Harvard crews on the hames has in no wise dampened the enthusiasm of our amateur rowers, and confidence sull exists in the bellef that ‘we have here the material to successfully compete in oars- manship with the gentlemen rowers of En; adin ex- tending this invkation to a crew belonging to an organization #0 famous as your own, we feel that, in the event of its ac- ceptance, we should be brought into friendiy rivalry with the beat crew of amateur oarsmen that England could produce — assuming ywiedge of your many triumphs over both Oxtord and Cambri ‘The association is prompted to ask your acceptance of this invitation, In thelr devire €0 test heir’ abilities against s class English crew in American waters, as well as to popu- tarize the beautiful art of rowing; and should the conditions herein stated meet with no ob; and our invitation re- ceive from you ® favorable consideration, we should be leased to arrange for the pastage of m don to New zor eas ur, , you ; ate, promising you a ‘and courteous welcome, in behalf of the Hudson Amateur Rowing Association. BENJAMIN F. BRADY, President, Gronce W. FortTMEYER, Secretary. It is not expected that the London Olub will accept, because of the distance, iealinegy and danger of get- ting beaten. In 1860 a similar challenge was sent hy the Hudson navy, but the two associations were unable to as to who were amateurs as defined in this regulation of the Hudson Association:— 9, Noman who has rowed for money, or has rowed in Togattas open to all comers, or has been at any time ready oF s ing to for mone; ainst any Oarsman, st De allowed to row face under: the suspices of this aasociatiol This rule ts still in force, and may become a bar- rier to our match, fcr It is rigidly observe. ‘The granc review of the Hudson Asso-tation will take piace on the 18th of May, whetner ot! the Elysian Fiekls or at Pieasant Valley it has not been deter.

The race will be pulled between the crews of the first and second classes over the usual course on the Severn river of three measured miles, at about five P. M., ant pro- muses to be very close, The crews have been in strict training for some weeks past, and despite the un- favorable weather have been out nearly every day, Considering the interest which attaches to the annual race atthe Academy, and in view of the approaching races between the Academy crew (which is tobe formed from the two class crews) and the Quaker City Club, of Philadelphia, and also the Atalanias, of New York, it is expected there will be a large number of vis.tors from abroad in addition to the usual at- tendance, ‘The race, it is thought, will prove one of the most interesting of the season among amateur oarsmen, TREASURER SPIN! ER AND TRE NATIONAL BANKS, TREASURY OF THE UNITED STATES, WASHINGTON, Apzil 23, 1870. Deak Str—Your letter of the 2ist inst. has been re- celved. Your bank is no doubt all mght, and willing to do all it can ‘‘voluniarily and without compulsion” to assist the government to fund its debt at a low rate of interest, ‘‘under any bill founded in ejuity.” There is just where the dificulty lie. Who shall de- cide what equity is? Shall lt be the people, through their representatives, through whom the banks were created and now still live, or are the banks to decide what equity is in their own favor? Coagress has re- served the right to “at any time amend, alter or re- peal the act” under which you and all the other na- tional banks are organized, and, of course, has the right to prevent the banks from issuing any circulation whatever; and if it authorizes them to issue any paper money, it is on just such terms and conditions as it may choose io grant th If Congress shall think fit to enact that the govern- ment shall hereafter issue all the paper money, and the baoks none, you would probibly take up your bonds of 1831 and sell them, and invest th: avails in some other way; and if it should pass a law that none other but the bonds of the new proposed law shall be depositea by the banks as security for the redemption of their circulating notes, you would probably sell your 1881 bonds at a large premium and invest in the new bonds at par. There is no compulsion avout this, nor is there any avout the Funding bill now pending in the House of Represen- tatives, Under that bill, if it becomes a law, the banks may sell or continue to hold any desirable United States stocks that they now possexs. All (hat will be required of them wiil be, that in care thoy desire to continue to issue the rcreuhiting notes they must deposit stocks of the now loan ty recure *| the redemption of such no‘es. This, in view of the valuable franchise that Oongie 8 grants to the banks, 1s certainly no very great hard-hip. Now let us look at your own particular grief. You your bank holds $35,000 in Unitea States bonds due in 1881, on which she paid a premium in March, 1365, of neariy $4,000, because she thought these bonds had sixteen years to run, and that during that ttme the government would not distur) them.
