His face is any- thing but bandsome; bis bair is cropped sbort and he wears a scarlet skull cap, Little over the medium height, bo does not look more than bis age, Which 1 sweet nineteen, He never wears a sweet expression, but as ho does pot swim on his head we may look at him with pleasure irom the peck down.

Broad between the shoulders and d@ep chested, the muscles of breast aud back are marvellousiy developed, while his biceps are enormous and bis torearm magnilicent, FAR BNOUGH OFF SHORE We bad now rowed about three miles from the shore, and at hait-past two the boat with Wade ou board came within hailing distance, Some conversation took place as the boats bobbed up and down like corks upon the long Atlantic breakers, It was relative to the distance we were out—one man said it was four, another three and a ball, a third two and a fourth that it was littie over three miles 1 imeline to the latter opinion, but am ouly certain it was not four, It was generally argued that it was far enough, and when oue looked back to the distant 'beach 1 did reem a good distance, ‘rhe reteroe, Mr. George Hotchkiss, the purdle jumper, then stood ap and ordered the boats into position, and the judges tossed for place, It was won for \Wade, and his trainer, Mr, Stewart, chose the southerly position. Mr. H.'T. Paddock was the judge for Trautz, and P. Y. Everett for Wade, The boats were now brought round with the referees’ boat headed for the shore, and the boats of the two coutestanis headed ior Europe, THE START. “(Are you ready ?”’ asked the referee, and the men responded by throwing off their wrappings and stand- ing up like bronze stacutes against the sun, “Gel” eried Hotchkiss, and they were gone like @ flash, diving beautitully into the swelling Waves, dis- appearing tor an instant, aud at ence putting out with slrong strokes jor the shore. ‘Time, 2u. 34m, 1s. AS shey rose to breast the oceun rollers it was at once sven that Wade had gained about ten feet and was keeping bis lead, Trauiz swam with tho ordinary breast stroke, and moved rapidly through the water at 50 strokes to the minute, while Wade swain on his left side with a beautiful movement, He seemed ,to spring through the — water at 61 strokes to the minute, The difference between the styles of the two men was very marked. ‘Yrautz progressed with apparent ease, his rounded shouluers rising and failing with bis stroke in a beau- tiful modulation, His head and shoulders were noarly always out ot the water. He swam as handsomely as he nioves on shore, Wade, on the gonirary, laid bis bead down and swam with a sharp movement that » him seem to go through the water like a ball. When a wave higher than 18 swelling brethren came in his way he went through it instead of over it, He varied his stroke in every Mnaginable way—uow turn- g on bis back, now swimming on his ; on one’ side and now on_ the other, At 2 45m, Wade had slowed down to 49 strokes aud Trautz to 42 They were evidently setting down to steady work, Trauiz soon pulled up somewhat ow Wade, but the latter darted away with a spurt, and it would have giaddened the heart cf asculp- tor to have seen the play of the dorsal muscles as te Sped through the water, The wind was still from tho south, and freshening alittle. The current was setting to the north, and the course lay across it m an obliqae line, giving the swimmers double work to do. Lt was Irvely said on board that it would bave been much better to have made the starting point amile to the suuth, The men certainly had to SWIM THB PULL POUR MILKS an the course t followed. The guiding boats were headed for the cottages below the West End Hotel, while the goal was in front of the Ocean Hotel, At 2h. bm, Trautz was swimming forty eight strokes to the minute aud Wade had increased bis to iiity. Ho was now about thirty feet ahead of his antagonist, and at 2b. Sm, turned on bis back, swimming a beautiful double Scull stroke for two minutes. Av3h, Wade's truinere asked him if he wanted anything, He said No? laugning: and went on with — his work, At Sh. 0m, when the men had been hait an hour in the water, toeir strokes were, respectively, Wade 48 and Trautz 61, At 3h. 20m. Wade secined to slacken his pace for a tnoment, and in a minute Andy was abreast of him. It was only tor a moment, as George with a ferocious spurt soon placed himself at the samo lead as beiore. For fully forty-five minutes subsequent to this the men retained their relative positions, Wade leading from ten to | twenty tect, Wade's slower stroke had exactly the | propuisive Value of tho fasier stroke of frautz At n. zbun, their strokes were, Wade 45 and Trautz 48. When the men had been an hour in the water their strokes were Wade 48 and Trauiz 51, Nemwher man showed the shghtest sign of fatigue. The pace con- tinuod without a break, and their endurance was abundantly manifested. NEARING THR SORE. With a glass 1 could be made out thatthe scepti- cal Branchers, at last, beheved in the race. The yel- iow sands in front of the Ocean Hotei were black with spectators, Who, at the distance we then were could certainly not discern the two objects bobbing ap and down between the leading boats, as they and fell with the waves. At Sh, 40m. the sea began to get heavier, and it looked as though "we were ia fora shower; Soom, however, the sun put nis face through the clouds, and the waters which the hardy men were cleaving gieamed like silver between us and the shore. Wade at this period seemed in some diffi- culty, but he held bis lead, fe explained that his tight& were slipping, and he was eeen to pull them up. At 3h. Sdm, Wade was doing 44 strokes and Trautz 61, When they bad beon mming- for | an bour and a haif Wade bad quickened to 4 and | Trautz had slackened to 48, but both men were | speeding along wonderfully. | We were now near- ing the shore, and couid make out with the naked | eye that the eliffand the beach before the Ocean Hotel were thronged. WATCHING THOUSANDS There were ceriainiy over two thousand of the hotel guevis and resideuts anxiously waiching the close of the race, A black stakeboat was visibie about fifty yards from the beach, and the men were ordered to swim to the south of it, At dh. 16m., the time of the, men was taken for the iast time. They both had seen the stakebort, and Whiteman called out to Trauts, They were swimming powerlully, and both were making the great stroke of 54 to the min- ute, We were now within about 30u yards of the stakeboat, and the race became deeply excit ng, The peculiar Inovement among the crowd on the beach showed that they had caught the excitement. Tho men were exerting theinselves to the utmost, Trauta, in response to his trainer’s call, had pushed throug the silver water with great force. At 4h. 19m. he was abreast of Wade, having for tho first time in the race swum with the hand over 4 stroke, Wado lay down to his work vigorously, bat could not again pass Traetz, Tho men were barely four feet apart, and Trantz, at 4h. 20m,, pat his head, tor the tirst time im tho race, nearer the store than Wade's. He was never moro than two feet in front, The speed was very fast, but Wade either did not seem to put forth his {ull iorce or else the exertion wid on him, lor side by side and stroke for stroke they sped to tue stakeboat without Wado being «bie to draw an inch on his rival, So they passed the boat, Trautz winning the race by about eighteen inches, at 4h. 21m. 15s, Duration of the race, 1h, 47m, NONORS TO THE WINNER, The crowd on the beach did not apparently know that the race had been decided, as the men continued to swim for the shore. Trantz was the first to stand up in the Water among the tumbling breakers A dozen hands were reached Out to greet im, cheer upon cheer rent the air and the handsome Andy was in ten seconds on the shoulders of the crowd, while Wade, who ce tainly swam @ magnificent race, was allowed to walk to his shelter house without much show of sympathy, aithongh the young feliow well deserved 1, Taus ended the race, which im spite of ali the head-shakings of the early part of the week was a mognilicent contest, and certainly a splendid test of endurance, The men never slacked from the start, and partook of no refresh- ment during the rxeo, a remark that applies to the occupants ol the referees’ boat also, but there was plenty of excitement, and that is flil/ng for a time ANOTHER MATCH, Trautz has accepted a challenge from Wade to swim four miles in still water on the Hudson River, withio ten days, for $1,000, LACROSSE, Of this game the London Field, August 19, says:— “As a sign that this game is likely to take a better hold on the public than many other introductions, a match under the title of England vs, Scotland has been arranged to take placo at Glasgow on Saturday, Sep- tember 16. Both teams are in hard practice, and some good and close piay may be expected, notwithstanding the very recent date of tho tutroduction of the game into England,” CRICKET NOTE.

Puuapetrnta, Sept. 1, 1876, The greatest week of amateur racing America ever saw ended to-night in a very satisfactory way, giving promise of success in the fast professional contests next week, and naturally gratifying both to the manage - ment and the whole city, Not one day has it rained, thongh it commenced within an hour after the last contest this evening was over, .There has been no op- pressive weather, and no moment when any one of the races could not have been row Mat- ters went almost as well the first day as the last, owing largely to tho very unusual amount of time given by the Rogatta Committee to covery detail, and, save the annoyances which sprang from alack of programme days before, and a flagged course, there can be no question that the great regatta has been a decided success, even though the London men did not appear in any of the events they were booked tor yesterday or to-day, ‘The races this afternoon commenced an hour later than usual, namely, at three o’eiock, when, ing oo- casional rutting from fitfai puffs of wind on the second half of the mile, the course was in good order, FIRST DOUBLY SCULL TRIAL HAT. All four crews drawn for tuis heat appeared at the score, Rodger and Ackerman, of the Atalantas, of New York, having the inside; Corning and Curtis, of tho Northwesterns, second station; Walker and Rodgers, of the Oncidas, of Burlington, N. J., next, and Mingus and McMillan, of the Vespers, the outside, , No race to-day resulted more unexpectedly than this, The prevailing opinion very naturally was that Curtis’ very powerful crew would have a warm race with the Atalantas, but both would certainly Lave light work with the remaining teains; Settling down at once to a faster stroke than they could hope to last on over the entire course, all four crews sprang away very fust, the Atalantas being the first to get their range along the bank and get headed just righily, Custis working over toward them too slowly, and the’ Oneidas and Vespers both pointing southwest at ounce, which route before tho quarter was reached brought the Burlington men close over beside Curtis?’ track, while the Vespers almost initnediately changed their course to their own detriment, shecring out too Jar to the east, While at the send-off it was not easy to say who led, 500 feet up the course the Atalanta men had already a clcan length over the Chicago party, wo in turn had the other two crews weil back on their quarter. At the quarter the Atalantas had made their load all of ‘sixty feet, Curtis coming next with eighty to spare over the Vesper, who wus trying bard to shake Oneida, who in turn was gradu- aily working westward, and steadily bettering her course, for she had already Jost qnite hier whole length, not knowing how to steer. Harder work than she was doing you Would not wish to see; but as the two hearty, well built youths curled themselves up over their ours, and tugged away with every ounce they had, until even thus eariy tn the race ‘their faces were aimost purple, and if Mr. Bergh had seen them would have arrested them, 1t was all to no purpose, because any man could see how sadiy they needed almost elementary instruction in the wily art ot row- ing. Nowa little after the quarter they drag enough to let Vesper cross their bow, which she does at once, and edges towara Curtis? water, who is by this time so © to the great Kodgers and his little ung mate of the Atalantas that his Starboard oar strikes almost among their port twashes, wearing out eastward a little as they draw down toward the balf. The Philadelphians now cross the northwestern wake, and as the three leaders gallop ajong close by the western bank, Rodgers leading and swinging @ great, powertul, steady, high feathering stroke, at thirty-six a minute, Curtis on the eastern flank,’ two lengths astern as they pass ihe half-mile signal station, and the gritty Philadelphians cbasing up hard in the centre, while the Oneida men are all laboring hard ip the rear, the scene wa: lively enough, Now all leave the western shore and work oui 1¢ midstream; Philadelphia actually crossing New York’s track astern and divging in foolisbly to the westward, snd as you get the crews a little broadside on it is an excellent time to see how they work tis simply a matier of astonishment that a man who hus seen 80 much racing as Curtis—more, prob ably than any other man m the country— should, before he had gone a mile, manage to row so poorly at the bow of a lour-oared crew. He slams his back on hard and seads her abead mightily, but why is it that now there is not a bit of tear in his stroke, but it is simply ope dead, muscular tug trom eatch to finish. Often, too, be gets in ahend of Corning, while the latter, while’ working with great Udelity, wastes. a part of it by slicing the water wiih his blade, and neither shows any familarity with throwing his head. Tbe fact is every man in tne Northwestern four needs coaching and plenty ot it, and if they could row nearly as Well as the Londoners thoy | would have had the four seconds the other way last | Monday, even though they had the loug outer course. And now see how their awkward work 1s telling, for at the three-quarters the Atalantas are three bun- dred feet ahead, and that at only twenty-six to the minute, while the Philadeiphia pair, who at this pomt are filty yards astern, actually in the next quarter cut down ail their tify yards, are now level at the mile, and the next minute 0 cleat and brace away after the New Yorkers, de- ighted-with their new position; but they cannot catch those two; for first hugging Peter's Island’s, northern end too’ closely they now keep working to the castward, the Chicago men following dead in their wake, ten lengths astern, while the Schaytkill men suddenly at their thirty stroke, foolishly go too far to the eastward. The steamers are now passing the poor Oneidas, who are 700 fect astern and giving them an unfriendly wash, Now the Atalantas near the goal, are over it; the flag drops; the chronograph says 10m. 29%’, while the Philadelphians are second ‘in, 10m. 438 ; thirteen seconds ahead of the Northwesternsa @KCOND DOUBLE SCULL TRIAL HEAT. Now they bring out two more local crews, just to see Courtney and Yates play with them, and on the whoie it israre fun. The great, avod-natared giant, with the dark. skinned little Yates ‘hanging at bis back like a Sioux papoose, Just puts in afew long swinging strokes, and at the quarter post has already shed them voth, while one of them, determined to show that be at aoy r: knows enough to head for the famous western bank, now runs bang isto it to the intense delight of the jookers-on irom the si¢amers. Hesitating a minute he finally concludes not to go ashore; so backing of he gets up steam again and looks around to tind Courtney, The rest seems to have done bim good, for he tears away with renewed vigor, but Courteny paddies on, leaving bis and the other's boat as he looks sud crossing the line ia 10m. 178.,, showing certainly no evidence of exhaustion. FINAL HEAT—PAURS. Now comes another goou race, Eustis and Downs, ot the Atalonta, and Killorin and Smi/b, of the Northwest- crus, pulling off the fivat in pairs, Eustis bas the Poorer position, and as he starts away on his strong, ‘well puiled, familiar thirt sroke, instead of mending it by going west, Downs, to the general sur- prise, edges east, Good ‘men, as they are, it is plain now ‘that their work is liberally cat out, for the Chi- cago pair, taking at once a good cour never atiered 14, but at the quarter post are plainly leading. A gust'strikes the Atalanta boat, throws her down hard to port, making one of her men almost crab her bow, swings sharply arowad, and, belore she can again straighten ber coarse, shows a very bad elvow at the hali-mile, The lead bas increased to a length and a half, Kustis’ best point, his steadiness, 18 doing him good, and not a tew think he may yet tire down the Northwesterns, who are pounding on with great fire and dash; but the latter are up to their = work, — aud, getting of the western coast, swing into ’ midstream just about right, while Downs now beads away tar ‘over to the east and lengthens his course materially, Nowhere does the gap seem to narrow, and the quick- eniig many hope for from Eustis docs not come. It is pees that ol the three or four first class oarsmen 1 re who from excess of work in the last two months have temporarily gone staie, one sits in this struggling boat. In any case their = antagonist is having it all her own way and still steering a far better course, rowing harter than ber rival, but not nearly s0 well, ‘The Northwestern ship satis over the lino a winner, cach man looking tired at his thirty-fourth stroke, and Jeaning Jar out of the boat, while the time table shows 10m, 28. for the head men and 10m, 164% for the hind men. THE INTERCOLLEGIATE RACK + After a somewhat unusual delay Yale put off from her float, paddica about a /ittle, practised a few starts and drepped down to her station, Cambridge and Columbia next came, almost abreast, They were soon in line, cautioned and started. Not one of the threo, not even Yale, steered well, all keeping too far east; nor does either jump to the fire, but, tearing away at a great pace Yale at her measured, powerful thirty-six. Columbia, a little quicker, and Cambridge a\ exactly forty, they down the course almost abreast, and even at the quarter milo there is not much to choose between them, Yale plainly having the bert of it, though with Colmmbia nearly a length astern and Cambridge as much more. Nor do they yet seem to think of the short western course, but keeping fifty yards apart, the siender Penrose stroking it for Cambridge with marked dash, grace and beanty. Goodwin less sightly, but leading his men with plenty of snap and fire, and substantial Kennedy at his everlasting thirty-six, they work om to the half mniletn the same order, Yale making the greatest gain, and then commenced stecring over toward midstream, Yalo would have done better to have held to the west a Iit- tle longer, for Cook was not steering nearly as well ag on Tuesday, bus Columbia goes worse yet, keeping far wide of her course, pushing constanuy eastward and bearing Cambridge over in a way tho Jatter certainly took with excellent grace. Three-quarters of a mi are passed aud half the race is rowed. Cam- bridge now commences dropping back fast, Yule does not skirt the island but goes far wide of 14, and Columbia for the first time in the ice turns her bow to the westward and is soon in Yaie’s wake. But here suddon danger threatens Cambridge, for a little above the island, as if a continuation of it, there stretches along a sleuder shoal, covered more or Jess with matted floating weed, and lying about mid- Stream, a large red flag at each end, warned boats" to look out for it; but Jameson, the Cambridge bow, seemed to have forgotten it, andin the next moment crash number two's oar into 1b and the boat brings up all standing. They get qui underway again still far out east, but it does seem if their evii day bad come, for hardly were they agsin at racing pace, when, just short of the mile, again Hey came to @ standstill, This time for more soous ause, for one of the men has fallen over into the boat, It is close at two, and here he lies shrown, his head im Jameson’s lap. The police beat pulls promptly up, he is lifted in, then into the press boat, wenk, pale and faint, He’ says he has sce landing had occasional fits of giddimess, wholly new to him, cnused no doubt by the great change of climate, that hia tormentor of the other day had gone, but mow this had seized bim; tbat be had no remembrance of falling over or any- thingelse until he suddenly found himself in the police boat. Dr, Brechemen at once examined bim, said he Was In no serious danger; warm coats were thrown about him; asip of brandy did good, and ashe tay thero on the steamer, his hei nd gboulders sup- ported by Ostrom’s strong, wiliing arms, one could not tat) to be struck with the strangeness of the picture— the President of the victorious crew of the first um- versity of the Uld World resting helpless in the lap ot the captain of the winning university in the New. Down we steam again to find that as all had expected Yale has won easily in 9m. 10%s., beating Columbia several lengths Boyd, of Columbia, had not shaken off his old trouble, but Was stil! able to pall, TWO CUPS OF CHAMPAGSER Is is quite likely row would ae.

He assured me _ to-daj that he and bis men were misinformed as to the rules governing this regatta, and that both Colouel Forney and Commodore Ferguson when abroad assured hin that the Hedley rules would govern bere. This the Commodore, on bis part, denies absolutely, and says that circulars were forwarded to Captain Gulston through the Britisn Commission 6x months ago distictly stating that the regatta would be governed by the rules of the American National Ama- teur Rowing Association, The point in Captain Gul- ston’s mind is as to who iseligible as an amateur, their rules barring ail tradesmen, ours not.

To tne Eprror oP tux Heratn: The suggestion made in the columns of the Hrranp the other day by a cavalry officer that the game ot polo should be mtroduced into our cavalry camps and our military schools, especially the school at West Point, deserves serious consideration, I trust it will mect with general approval. It is an interesting question to consider how far games express the character of a people, and how far they play a part in the development of nationat pride and self-respect. I have al 's been strack with a remark of the Duke of Weilington when be was a spectator at a cricket match between the school boys of Eton and Harrow, “it was hero,” said the Duke, “that we learned to fight the battle, of Waterloo.” What was simply a game to the players, to the crowd who looked on and to the general sentiment of the public, was an education in the eyes of the great communder and an education for the highest duty that can devolve upona free people— the protection of the national honor, The Duke saw that the points necessary to a good cricketer were essential in a good soldicr—nerve, a clear eye, quickness, courage, endurance, the spirit of emulation, which is’ the spirit of victory, and without which, a8 an underlying principle, there can be no truo soldier. As I understand the game of poo, it is moro valu- able from an educational port of view, in the sense implied in the remark of the Duke of Wellington, than cricket. A pelo player, to succeed, needs ail the qualities essential tw a cricket phiyer and other in addition, The cricket player may to be learning how to be an infantry soldier, The polo player may be said to be learning how to be a cavalry soldier, Any military eritic will tell you how much more difficult it is to drill a recrait into & cavalryman than into an infantryman, in six months joot soldier will know bis dutios and how to pertorm them. But two years are necessary to make a toleravlo cavairyman. in this point of view polo, so far as it fits the piayer for cavairy service, is more valuable as & game than cricket. ‘he peculiar necessities of our country make it in- cumbent upon us to strengthen our cavairy. You have, no doubt, observed in modern wars, and more especially in the recent war between France and Germany, the Immeuso importance given to cavalry. Moltke, the great commander of Germany, has taught us the value of cavalry, just as Napoleon aught us the value of artillery. The cavairy 1 needeu to reconnotire, toenvelope the enemy and feet his strength and his arms It is more than all needed to protect an advancing army, to cover its movements and enable it to manquvre. When Moltke jed the German army into France he threw before him a cioud ot cavairy. Into that cloud the French could never penetrate. There hidden from the observation and practically irom the antagonism of bis army, Moltke was enabled not alone to deend Germany, but to work out those suc- cessful military probiems which destroyed the French Empire. It cavalry {s important in the modern wars of the Coutinent how much more important is it to the United States? We have only two foes that we have encountered within the past baif century outside of the rebeilion, The one is the Mexican, the other the Indian, There has been a constant abrasion of fron- ters betwoen Mexico and the United States, a Constant Irritation, which Jot to a war @ generation ago, and compels us ever now to keep a large force on the Rio Grande. The Mexicans are fine cavalrymen. Wo have no such horsemem in our armies, The Mexican lives to a great extent on his boi until it has become apartot lin, It weever fought Mexicd this advan- tago in the character of her cavalry would prolong the war, and entai upon us the loss of life aud treasure that might as well be avoided. Our other enemy is tho Indians. The events iu the Yellowstone country, not three months since, and which bave fallen upou tho COUNtTY 4S a great national disaster, show how feeble we are in our cavalry. A party of mounted savages cut to pieces one of the finest cavalry regiments in the army, This was, to some extent, because the Indians were reaily cavalrymen, While our troops were simply meh on horseback. ‘There is every diference botween a cavalryman and & man on horseback. Aman on horseback, it be bas been a half dozen times to the riding school, and holds well on to his animal, may make aturn of the Park and succeed in bowing to his friends, Butan orgai grinder of @ circus wagon OF & wheelbar- | fence, Our di 48 an old-tash: severest xivd rogard 4 morning behind the burdess.

The same is trae of our cavalry regiments, and aiso, I may say, of our schools and colleges. As your currespondent well says, it 18 of as much consequence that our young men should know how to ride as to know how to pull a boat on the river or chase a bull over a field. I do not disparage these atnusements. We live in a bard age—age of materialism and feverish etiort, Whatever tends to drighten it and make it more human should be weleumed as a benelac: tion.
