The rouds in the vicinity of Putney, Mam mersmith, Chiswick, Barnes, Mortlake, &c., were Shronged with pedesirians, ‘The rallway companies found themselves almost unable to provide care Melent to carry the vast numbers in waiting at tue depot, Dukes, costermongers, princes, cord wainers, lords, fishmongers, earls, and roughs poared to the river bank in one conglomerated mass, Many Indies were present.

CONDITION OF THK CRHWS, The Harvards remained in their quarters during the greater part of the day, Agreat many American and English gentiemen called upon them, but few Were admitted. It wos freely usserted that the American crew were overtrained. The condition of Simmons Loring was the subject of frequent comment, ‘Tho former was suffering from diarrhea, ad the Litter was troubled with an angry boil, The American crew, however, wore quite confident. Blaikie wna Josh Ward wore smiling faces,and oeca- ‘sionally took the long odds offered on the English erow, Kelley was cool and calculating, and anid but Mitle, Some of the members of the American Lega ton appeared despondent,but with this exception, all seemed confident of a tight race, with a good square chance for an American victory, During the day the Ox'ords kept quiet. Noue but favored friends were welcomed to their headquarters A few ofthe English nobility and a half dozen boat ing men and collegians remained wita them until Jate in the afternoon, All of their friends were en- ‘thusiasiic, and frecly ofercd two to one on their success. ‘The crew were in tip-top condition, ‘They Dased their hopes of victory upon their superior Dottom. It was generally conceded that Harvurd Would take the lead and keep It as fur us the Ham- meremith Bridge. ** But they can’t stay," said Yar barough, “you may be sure of it.” ‘This seemed to be the general opinion of the vast masses of Eng lishmen that lined the banks of the river, THE DRITING AND THE SPECTATORS, ‘Tho Thames wos fringed with yelling spectators Every availible boat and housetop was covered with men and women, The betting was heavy, The Jong odds offered on Oxford was freely taken by the Americans and somo of the English, Kelley says that over « million pounds sterling were wagered in London alone, Many of the ladiee wore the magenta colors of Harvard, and ventured sovereigns oa the skill and endurance of the Americaus, THE CREWS ON THE KIVER, ‘The Oxford crew glided out of the London boat house at a quarter of four, ‘Their appearance was the mgnal for an immense fohver, which was carried up and down both banks of the river for miles, As they paddled toward the Star and Garter their long sweeping body stroke elicited another cheer, and drew outa thousand exclamations of admin ‘The son was ebining brightly, and the water was mearly as smooth as a mirror, Scarcely a breath of air was stirring, ‘The oars of the sturdy English moa rose and fell like the steady aweep of an eagle's wing. ‘Thoir bodies were bare and their skins were well tanned, Turning off at the Star and Garter, they swept down to the starting-post at Putney bridge, where another cheer mounted the ‘air and was wafted up the river, Thelr stroke wi moderaic, and their faces bore the ealm, imper turbed look peculiar to English sporting mer Five mioutes elapsed. ‘The Harvards spurted out in the stream, Another chicer flew over the vast multitude, but it lacked the volume of its predeces sor, Naked to the waist and bronzed, the shoulder Diades of tie Harvards rolled in their sockets, aud thelr oors took the water with murvellous precision Down toward the stake-boat they sped with the grace of a water fowl, ‘The multitude waved their handkerchiefs, and sent spasmodic cheers in the wake of the gallantcrew. The Oxfords spoke not a word us the Harvard ranged ther Ives at their tide, The vast crowd became breatiless with ex citement GRNTLEMEN ‘The tiny sterns of the #peartike bonts were ranged ova level, ‘The crews held their ours in readines Not even a whisper wax heard, A slight nervous- owever, was observed in the movements Bimmons. Loring sat like a statue, eager-eyed and immovable, Little Buruham furtively glanced at the Ox ‘ord coxswain, and silently awaited the word, ‘The English crew sat with thelr bodies bent to the front and arms extended, stolid and apparently indifferent, The Harvard crew had won the toss for the position, and chose the Middlesex side, the outside of the semi-circle. It was five o'clock, four teen minutes, and six anda halfseconds, The tide is sluggish, anda light southwest broege pre- valled, with the water as smooth as a wirror, There ‘was a moment of dead silence “OM, gentiomen !" eaid the starter, in a clear bass voice, And they were off—of like the wind, The judges clicked the springs of their watches, At the same ‘moment an anxious spectator knocked Tom Hughes’ hat into the water with his elbow. The Harvards were first to catch the water and took the lead, gain- Ing rapidly upon their opporlents, making forty-five wrokes per minute against the Oxfords forty. THe RACE There was a Mutter among the vast multitude Mining the banks as the Harvards sped to the front A million eyos were fixed upon their flashing oars At Bishop's Creek, three furlongs from the Bridge, they had gained balf a length and were still goining, ‘Thetr quick stroke seemed to ting » song of triumph. They reached the Willows, and the stern of their boat was even with the bow of the Oxfords. Here there was an evident slack in their speed, and the Oxfords crept up a quarter of @ length, A nest of cheers from Beverly rang out a story of Engilsi satis faction, Threc-quarters of @ milo w while the Hi ‘Wharf and Rose Cottage flow by, A str Aight wi ik of day thrown to the rear, and till the Americans held ‘8 ood lead, At Craven Point the Oxfords doggedly matutained their provoking steady drag, ards spurted ahead Ike mad, Dung opened between the two boats, The gap ‘wos increased, until at Crabtree, a mile and ‘en clgith from the start, At the Aqueduct, the Americans were fully two lengths nhead, They were pulling at th of forty. three strokes per minate, the Oxfords holding their own = at thirty-eight strokes, Above the point the coxswain of the Harvards bugged the Middiesex shoro, and the Oxfords slightly quick- ened thelr seed. At the soap works, a mile and a half from the aqueduct, they bad cloned the gap, and Harvard neld a lead of half « length by the skin of their teeth, WAMMRROMITHE MRIDOR Was dead ahead, and both boats were going for it like torrified water spiders, The bridge was renched, snd a subdued murmur from the spec: (itors above reached the ears of the rowers as they entered {ts shadow, From the soap works to the bridge Harvard went with mag nificent speed, but in shooting the bridge their distance was lost. Opposite the middie wall the Oxfords sported and came up gradually to the Harvords, but when opposite “the Doves," the boats were found to be too close to- gether, and the Harvards gave way, At “ Chiswick AIL" (Qty miles), the boats were “level. Al Proceeding fity yards further, the Oxfords began to gain, though temporarily, and the Harvards again got even with them: Oxford gained rapidly at Chiswick where it heeame clear that the pace apparently tolt on the Harverds, who were rativer wild at this part of (ie race, From ‘this point the OXFORDS RAPIDLY DREW ANEAD, and in a few stroges obtained a leat of two lengtts The Harvards rowing plockily, held them there for half mile, when they fell astern, and Oxford at thirty-eight strokes per minutes, shot Barnes's Bridge @% mile thre lengths ahend.

The Oxford boat arrived at the ship at Mort- lake at 6 o'clock, 36 minutes, and 47 seconds, The news of the victory was received by means of the English cable, at the Associated Press OMce in this city, at 1 o'clock and 4 minutes—just 23 minutes ond 18 seconds alterward. The messenger was obliged to carry the despatch throe quarters of a mile on horseback to the nearest telegraph station at Mort- lake. SCENE IN THE BOARD OF BROKERS—DI FIRST NEWS, The frat despatch was read during the second sos- sion of the regular Board of Brokers, A general feeling of disgust was experienced by the heavy swells constituting that virtuous body. ‘The greater part of them had been betting on Harvard, and would not belleve the story, ‘They said the news hind arrived too soon to be relied on, ‘The minorl ty, who had bet from 160 to 170 on Oxford, were ju- bilant, CRAZY BNTHUSIASM AT THE FALSE NEWS OF THE MARVARD vicToRY. An bour afterward, Leroy Nichols, a member of the Board, entered, fourisbing a despateh, and ap- proached the President's desk, followed by a wildly excited crowd, He announced himself as possessing the copy of telegram which he had received from 8 most trustworthy source inthe Long Room, He then read it, to the effect that the Oxford hal lost by three lengt A scene of insane delight then ensued unparalleled in the history of even that lively spot, Every better on Haavard cheered himself hoarse, swung his hat tll the rim was hopelessly distorted, and cut pigeon- wings without number, Old George Henriques, the Veteran favorite of the Board, was discovered franti- cally embracing Frank Wallace; Bob Waller, an Englishman, who is on the Managing Committee, and who t4 always telling members to put their cigars out, had his hat knocked over his eyes, and a dozen clouds blown in his iuce; Ned Van Schaick, and Jobn Bonner, another Engtisiinan, backed off into a simaltaneous spar; and ats) chap, name eo- known, tried to Hit Ned Stedman by the seat of his brecehes, It was long before matters cooled down, WHAT THKY DID IN THE GOLD ROOM. In the Gold Room betters on Harvard were as vu- merous in proportion a in the Brokers’ Board, and the scene was the same, if not intensified. Harry Heiser, a fat fellow, jumped in a fit of enthusiasm upon the back of Eugene Rubino, a little chap, and everybody made a xpeecu, of which nobody heard a word, ‘There was a general dip of shouts, whistles, and yells, ‘The door-keeper was carried away by the general jollity, forgot to guard his door, A number of outsiders consequently got in, who swelled the pervading chorus, ALL A MOMBUA, In less than an hour, however, tnformation eame that the Associated Press knew nothing of the iar vard victory, and the high spirits wilted according- ly. An afternoon paper published the following note from Mr. Simonton, the Agent of the Associa- ted Prese: “I have just heard that thero is a de- «patch in Wail street purporting to be signed by me, announcing that the Harvard crew won the race to- day, the Oxfords having been ruled out on techni- cality, Tneed not tell you that this is forgery.” otwithstanding this, many Harvard enthusiasts atinued betting on thelr favorites tl subsequent despatches assured every one of the true result. POOL BELLING AT THE ASTOR HOUSE, Betting was made by auction in the morning by the mighty Underwood (weight 115), The ven- turesome business was done in the rotanda of the Astor House, Oxford was largely the favorite, and rtod at twice the amount fetched by Harvard, The Americans gained favor for atime afterward, but ually fell to 60 against 100 on Oxford, There were no very heavy pools, but among the throng of sports were some of size; one of $1,000 to $650, and another of $900 to $500, were made, Almost immediately after the conclusion of the pool selling the telegraph operator rushed from his office and communicated to many anxious listeners ST aT THE “How!” from fifty tougu * By three lengths and six “Don't believe it,” sald a stout man. “ Asif it would take ‘em six #econds to go three lengths!" But such was the devpatch received, and all gram- blers were perforce content until further details, It was wonderful to behold the rapid manner in which the barroom was vacated after the result had been ascertained, IN THR AT, NICHOLAS At the time of the receipt of the telegram, a tall, elderly, aud portly gentleman, with white whiskers and black suit, was walking about the barroom and up and down the corridors, Suddenly it was ane nouneed by s loud-mouthed boy that Oxford bad Won the race, Whereupon the honorable geutleman sald, What!’ and raised the beavy gold-headed ‘cane which he carried tessellated floor with such force that one of the mar- Die blocks was broken and the cane wus shivered into tooth-picks, He didn’t believe it, and wothing but piles of telegrams convinced lim, but at last he sank eulmly into am arm ebalr, A lively scene was had ‘IN THE METROPOLITAN, Betting ran bigh ; one punchy man inside » broad, White yookll, wae anaious to sling a cool thousand Ww nd struck it down upon tle © hundred on as he called it, Whereto responded a thin individaal recently turned oat a complete from the barber shop, with a beautiful bine neck tie and a suspicious curl to his hair and an odor of citronetia about him wal “TM take i And he did, the crisp ereenbacks going Into Bob Moville's hands for a ten minute's rest. ‘The two-to- ‘one got them and was jubilant and lavish of cham- Pagne therewith, ‘Thus quickly was fortune made, thus quickly was one lost, ‘The excitement was con- tagions ; groups of interested persons who bad lald @ pound, and others who hoped that onr tional integrity would not bo imperfiled, collected fn groups and rpeculated on the chances of Harvard, yboiy came to the fame conclusion—to wit: that the crew they had bet upon was sure to win, Ofcourse, why not?

At tile ehullition of national sentiment the foreigners ub sided, and nothing more wax said, IN THE STRERT there was Intense excitement about the result of the race. Almost every office hoy or clerk had a dollar or two at stake, and besides that most of them had a love of country, which they sought to uphold by betting on the Hurvard erew. AROUND THE BULLETINS, Att o'clock crowds of people collected about the Dulletin boards of the different newspapers, @ large crowd forming around Tae SUN office to learn the news. ‘They came hither beconse they knew by former experience that they conid thas procure fuller and more rellablo wews than elsewhere.
