But Magpie never heeded,
For mournfully said she,
"It is so sud to have him

She left me in the darkness,
I heard the sea-pull screech,
And burly winds were growling
With bi takers on the beach.

What touching thincs they said,
When Magpie lay a-slc;'piup,
With lilies round her head !

And praed and preached again

im happy to say, it's all rmht. and the whole
thing ban been urruuped. Tho Chronicle ot this
nty will liuorni you thuton Saturday lust, John
tlatnill and Harry I litsper left here at 2 o'clock
:hat inoniiiip, and by subsequent advices we tin
lerstanii they amvcil iu the metropolis iu the
.onr.'c of ihe same forenoon.. In the afternoon
of the ftitne day they, accompanied by Mr. bray,
'he editor oi ilie New York Clipper, attended at
he Sportsman ollice, where they were met bv
'he aquatic editor ol that journal (Mr. K. 15.
Wonnuld), together with Mr. Charles Dush, uud
seme other ot Kelley's backers. Matters were
fairly and freely discussed, and eventually with
a little mutual concession on eithea side funill.y
and cutitductorily minister!. Accordine to the
terms apreed upon, it appears the two champions,
thru ii ph i heir representatives, agreed to contest
for the supiemaoy by rowing two sculler matches
lor 25o a siiie each race, the time agreed
upon being curly in July. Tan first race is to be
a straight away one of four miles; whilst the
second one will be a five-iiii'.t: race, viz.: -two-aiid-a-half
miles, to turn boats, uud back to the
startinp point. Both races to be rowed at
Newcastle-on-the Tyne, and to be decided In the
fame week, The little tlilliciuty that appears to
be as to the stakeholder was tilo amicably
ettlcd, HamiU's friends apreeinp that the editor
of the Sportsman should uct in that capacity
the releree to be appointed at the last deposit,
wmcu was arranged should De niaae one weet
before the first race. So far then as regards
the preliminaries these were subsequently
ratified bv the party takintr a trip to Harry
Kellev's, the Bells, at Putnev. where on
Saturday eveninp articles were signed and half
the stakes were deposited, Hamill receiving X50
s halt me expeuses agreed to be allowed him.
t was also further arraueed th'U the race should
take place between the '2d and Cth of July, Kel-
iey to have a month s notice ol the precise day.
Thus far evcrythiup seems of the most satisfac
tory cliaracer, tnd botn parties are congratu
lated on tne Dusiness-nue way in wnich the pre-
iminaries nave Deen settled. Both men will
loubllesB now seitle down to their training;
neanwhile the day will be anxiously looked
orward to when will be witnessed one of the
uost exciting and interesting races ever rowed
m the Tyne.
i THE INTERNATIONAL SCULLING RACK.
Front the Ntwcuftle Ixiily Chronicle, May 16.
The terms of the proponed sculliup match be
tween Harry Keiley, the champion of Entrlauti,
and James Ilutniil, the Auericau champion,
having been definitely settled and concluded,
more than usual interest now attaehes to the
event, and as may be readily expected, parties
ire anxiously on tne qui vice to "take stock"
of Hamiil's style of rowing, 60 as to fairly cal
culate his chanc es of success or the contrary
:re they "get their money on." Their labor,
however, we may remark, is but vain, as the
most of the American's work is screened from
the public eaie, bis system of training being
somewhat ditlereut lrora that of any ot our
iwpirants for aquatic fame, Yesterday after
noon he had a spin of nearly an hour iu the
Joseph Coven, the skill' belonging to Harry
CUsper, in which he mane his debut on the Tyne,
and in which he has so olten rowed since. In the
course of yesterday's trial he rowed from
Harry's boathouse to the Chain Bridge, and
back, including at the tin is h a little paddliug
i about oppot-ite Harry's place of busme s before
'i cming ashore. His movements were eagerly
Ivatched by a goodly crowd of spectators, and
loth iu the aiternoon and evening when he
I ffos down again, but did not go oil a good deal
I t harmless banter was indulged iu by ouu or
I wo "gents," who, from their appearance, we
Vhoiild itidee, would know more about the ciua-
lties und capacities ot a knife and fork thau
hose ol a rucmg skill'. Due in particular made
liiiuseli very prominent by the absurdity of his
emarks, he olleiintr to lay wagers, not only tnut
Hamill could not row the first and second mites
d the forthcoming race in an almost incredible
ime which he admitted he had never seen ac--omphvhed
by any oiberman tin, the strangest
if all, would stake twenty shillings to one that
Hamill was not Hamill; or. to use his own
.rords, that the man w ho is now here Is not the
nan vt ho is to row tue raes winch are to decide
,he supremacy as between Enubiud and Ame
rica: tnereDv lmu vihl'. no uount. that the
real "Siaitm Pure'" is to crop up the last mo
ment, and contend for the championship! We
confess we Lave heard in fact English earn have
Deen accustomed to hear ot many "Yankee
notions," but this, in our opinion, bents them
all lor extravagance and absurdity. Apart from
thee dis.-entients, however, there is no mistake
