For two or more years, or rather from the time that the Argonautas became | the champions of the Kill von Kull and sought aquatic battles on other waters, | they have entertained the idea of meeting the bold Atalantas, and made propositions to thatend; but, after prolonged and almost interminable dis- cussions, the clabs were no nearer the solution of the question as to which possessed the better crew, un- tal, at last, it seemed hopeless to effect the end in view, getting them together and then deciding who were the superior oarsmen. Then came a | lall, and the Argonautas a few weeks since re- newed the challenge and the champions of the Hariem manfully accepted, thus setting at rest all uncalled for reflections regarding their couragé, | which certainly bad never given evidence of failing them In the hour of need, Alter a short consulta- tion between representatives of the respective clubs it was agreed that the race should be rowed The satisfactory arrangement aquatic circles, and general satisfaction was ex- pressed that the two crews wero 80 soon to meet and test In amanty pull whether the magenta of the “Argies” or the crimson of the Atalantas would Speculation, too, immediately vecame rife, and the expression of this speculative spirit assumed a financial shape; for be it known that men of the material that yesterday met are given to backing their opiniuns, and, no doubt feel it a point of honor to demonstrate the confi- dence they have in their representatives and champions by staking crisp greenbacks on the issue of the contest. The speculation which takes place on subjects of this kind ts the speculation of | sympathy, and scientific authorities on the matter | of betting declare that the uncertainties of a boat race and the multitude of accidentsa—any one of which may, by its interposition, convert what seemed like & certain victory into a defeat—re- move tt {rom the proper province of wagering; | and in this sprit the Argonautas and Atalantas have been using their money on even terms, and when the rival shells shot out towards the start- ing point it is wituin the bounds of probability to assume that $25,000 were depending on the regult, | THE CREWS. | Itseems superfinous to repeat here what has 80 | often been written relative to these excellent amateur crews, For years every boy in New York | big enough to climb over the gunwale of a boat jag beard of the Atalantas, as from 184%, when the club was ushered into existence, their career has | been one of great honor to themselves, while their | ove for and interest in aquatic sport have done | much to elevate rowing into something between afine art and ascience.

Frou on hour shortly aiter sunrise the boat houses wers thronged with oarsmen and their irlends, all anxious to witness the contest, while they dis- cussed the previous performance of the crews, and money was staked by almost every partisan ofeach in support of their optuions regarding the probable result of the contest. As ¢ight o'clock arrived the crowd augmented, aud many of the more entuustastic outsiders besieged the Nassau’s house, with a view of getting & peep at the visit- lug “‘Argies ;"" as weil did they adjourn to the Ata- lanta’s house and there want to look at the “Champions of the Harlem," but they met with rebuifs at both points, as “interviewing” just tien was not admissible.

The crowd nad not long to wait, as At 9b, 18m. 288, Mr. Bacon sent them away, the Argonautas catching the water first, getting half @ iength the best of the start, when the pent-up enthusiasm of the crowd vented iwelf ina storm of cueers and shouts of encouragement, Settling down to their work a tremendous race began, both crews going steadily at 38 strokes to the Dy pute.

AS THR GREAT DAY A*PROACHES the oarsmen who are to contend, as well as thetr {riends, become less communicative. Rdticence is cultivated co such an extent that the too 1 quisitive may very frequently learn that bis curiosity t* unwelcome or obtrusive. Even the Harvard men, usnally good natured and free to communicate any reasonable inquiry, do not in the most gracious way speak to one enthu-’ stastically of the tenderness of the meat they eat or dwell upon the virtue of the waters they drink.

AN BVENING'S WATCHING IN THE RAIN, Last evening, in the drenching rain, the most of the boats were out, some of them “making time,’? others rowing Over the course, while others were practising Starts and spurts. They did not mina the rain, for the water was all right, ana there were few observers on the shore timing them or making notes, Barebacked and bronzed, all of them, they felt that a litue water’ would not harm’ them any, and then the ume jor practice ts drawing still closer and closer on the final day. And how many little points are bow noted which before were ignored; but now that the great struggle advances with quickened pace and anxiety goes hand tn tand with watch- {uiness Over the preparatory finishing work many errors crop up and drawbacks loom into propor- tions which ere this were unconsidered, negiectea or unseen. YALB, ‘The most cautious and silent of any of the crews is Yale. They are most careful to guard against observation, so determined is their captain to col ceal the workings of his men. Last evening, shortly before the heavy rain commenced to tail, the Yales were out and rowed over the course, a) parently on time. VWasat was the result of the trial, of course, tt Was Impossible to learn. Thetr boat, however, slipped quickly througn the water and Was making ast time as She passed the quar- ters where the Corneil crew are located, about one tile trom the finish, THE DARTMOUTH CREW Passed down the course shortly aiter Yale, rowing a stroke away up in the fortics, The water was Smooth at the time, and a good opporrunity was thus offered of judging of thetr work, Although their rowing lacked the precision and measure of the crews who are pulling a less rapid stroke the boat Was remarkably steady notwithstanding. It would be impossible to keep up their stroke, even throwing off w ‘ew. per minute, through 4 three mile race, and yet the Dartmouth boys believe tuey can do it, HARVARD this year ts not pulling so many strokes as they did twelve montus ago. Atleast they don’t do 16 tu their practice. As I mentioned in my last letter, the Harvard crew is not as nearly perfect a3 16 might be, Tuey are a splendid jookiug lot of jellows in their boat, and Dana cuts out the Work for his ten in good style; put. somehow or other, the boat rolls conn ere uy when they “hit her up’? any way hard. here is some talk 01 changes inthe crew, aud this on the eve of a race is not encouraging.

The crew is rowing finely, and every man in the boat pulls with vim and spirit; and if they can pull and stay as theytave dove on some occasions during their practice the blue and white colors will saow up well on the great day. Their boat holds them up well, too, ana they ure much pleased with her. THR TRINITY CREW do most boat practice of any crew on the lake, They are strapping big fellows, every man of them. The crew will average in height six feet. They will pull in their last year’s boat, and hold to t! idea that she is quite as good as a newone, The Harvards entertain a diferent opinion regarding their craft, But when did two crews ever agree on Such a subject? The Trinity crew are pulling Touch more evenly than they did in the first days on the fake, They catch the water better dnd their recovery is more regular, THE PRINCETON CREW improve as they get down to their real hard work. ‘Their boat seems light and does not appear to hold vhem up very well. Last evening they put in to one of the other crew's Moat to get the water out of their boat before they could row down to their quarters, It was raining hard at the time, ana possibly that may have been partially the cause; but uf their boat shipped so much water with tne Nitle ripple of last oizht it will certainly work against them on Thursday if the lake happens te be any Way rough. THE WESLEYANS, at thelr work, do not impress a boating man as favorably as some of the other crews. Gunster, at the stroke, is the best man in the boat, and the great tear fs that Dis crew may not be able to tollow up the work ne givés out to them. CORNELL, whose quarters are north of Princeton, on the weas aie loyk a spin over the course at an average of thirty-threé, last evening, working better than they nave ‘or ote days past. WILLIAMS, though ont as often as any of the other crews, is somewhat behind the pest m many respects, and wil, require a good deal of attention, The rowing is faulty and irregular, or at least appears 80 to the observer (rom the shore. After to-morrow the crews will do their hard rowing and make their final preparations for the great University race of 1874. id A REPUBLIGAN VIEW. (From the Ciacinnatt Gazette.)
