Favored by the elements in every respect, the Hud- son Kiver Amateur Rowing Association yesterday inaugurated the rowing season under the most agrevable auspices. The prospect 1s @ brilliant one, fund, judging from the performince of the various crews which comprise the organtzation, a spleodid front wit unquestionably be presented during the coutng months, It was gratilying to witness the display yesterday up the river, its attractiveness being chiefy atiributable to the vigor, spirit and enthusiasm imparted to the exhibtiton by the amateur oarsmen, who, by the way, spared no pains t render their inaugural ent ort inment 4s interesting as any atfuir of tie kind could posst- bly bs. Indeed the members of the association ap- pear to be thoroughly earnest about their work, and 1 must be @ source of satisfaction to those intimately connected with the assoctation to know that the pub- Me interest ip their annual reunions 1s vastly on the increase. Few matitations have done moce to pro- mote the BRST OF ALL ATHLETIC EXERCISES than that under whose providence the interesting ex- hibition was yesterday given. Throughout the entire “opening,” as it was termed, pluck, muscle and energy Were conspicuous; and it is to be hoped that the association will not confine itself to domestic strifes, but will boldly launch forth its gallant young oarsmn to struggle, in a irieudly way, against more pretentious foes, Shortly before one o'clock the club house at the foot of Christopher street was thronged to oxcess, Commodore Bracdy, president of the association, companied by the execut.ve committee and others, proceede! on board tie revenue cuiter Je samine, Captain Pearson, and w.th the most pleasant anticl- witoas of a dist oguished assomblage the swilt tte steamer headel up the river.
