THE SCULLING MATCH AT PITTSBURG.
HORACE GREELEY WANTED TO BAIL OUT
COiE OF THE BOATS.
FULL PARTICULARS, ETC. ETC.
Last Tuesday we went to Pittsburg to see
the great sculling match between the two
mnscularian friend3, Messrs. Brown and
llamill, and to witness the
TRIAL OF SKILL WITH THBIR SCULLS
n this smoky village. We were toldthat it
and, indeed, as soon as we arrived at our
hotel, we thought we had ended the same way.
The fogs that envelope the High Court of
Chancery are no comparison in their darken
ng qualities to the fog of this bituminous city.
Nothing is clear here, except the general
obscurity; that is plain to everybody.
After depositing our carpet-bag in our room
at the "Jolly Flat Boat," we called upon the
two aquats, and found them both in fine
spirits,
PRACTISING ON THE "MONONOAHELA"
for their contest on the morrow. We observed
the "pulls" of each one, and we thought at
the time that the quick pulls of llamill, if
long continued, must defeat him. '
We had a little conversation with the gen
tlemen, and spent some time in examining
their sculls, their clavicular and scapular
muscles, and felt convinced that either of
them would win, if we were their opponent iu
the match. As we have never succeeded in
"feathering" our nest, we are satisfied it niu3t
be more diffloult to "feather an oar," which
our friends say is one of the first thing3 to
learn. Brown gave us some little insight
into the course of training he has been going
through the past week. He says he travels
a hundred miles in a hundred hours daily.
The way he does it is this: He under
takes to serve the subscribers of one of the
morning dailies, he just goes to the office and
gets as many papers as he can carry, and leaves
them at the houses of the respective sub
scribers; he then gets more, and does the
same with other subscribers, uutil they are all
served. He then starts to colleot the money
for the papers and here is where his severest
training begins. He walks up and down the
.Btreets, and pp and down the door-steps of
every subscriber, aud finds that the party
who pays the bills is either not out of bed oi
ls gone to his store. After ascertaining that
fact from five hundrod and fortv ft.lm vi4.nr
of his list), he goes to their places of business,
when they are generally out, will be in soon:
he is asked to call again in half an hour. Of
course he is unable to repeat all of the calls in
a" half hour. So he goes over the course
throughout the whole day, and at night he
eats his supper, consisting of fried ham, eggs,
and coffee, when he lays down and goes to
3leep anywhere. This course of training for a
few days, he told us, would enable him to
"paddle his own canoe" under any circum
stances, and for muscular exercise had no
equal. - ' . - '. ,
On the morning of the race we looked
through the smoked glass of our bedroom
window, and discovered by the black streaks
on it that it was raining. This we thought
would postpone the performance, for ftlthoujjli
waler" iz Very essential for the sport, yet It
must be on the outside of their boats, iiot
inside; we, howover, found the crowd at the
river, and at their headquarters found the
"boys." Brown's boat is one of the most
perfect things of the kind ever constructed. It
is made from a long elder stick, 120 feet long
axd 1J inches beam: the pitli was blowed out
and a needle is in each end to keepit sharp. He
handles a forty-eight foot oar and twenty-one
foot outriggers. She weighs User. 3drs.,
apothecaries' weight. The prescription for her
weight was carefully compounded by Elliott
Oreenpoint, Long Island. Hamill's shell, we
were told, is also a perfect beauty,aud is made
of a shell bark. .
The start was most startling; the boats
fairly jumped out of the water, and the people
who lined the shores fairly jumped into it.
There must have been fifty thousand people
lining the shores, but the rain shrunk the
lining so that there seemed to be abundance of
room for more. They soon left
THE CITY
in the distance, (where we think it ought to be
left, although it soots a great many people),
and they pulled away for the buoy. On their
attempt to round the buoy, they signally failed,
as the buoy was of such irregular form that it
could not be rounded; so they rowed away
from it as fast as possible. Occasionally the
rowers would be given a word of advice from
the judges, but the boats being so frail, and
already over-loadtd, it was feared by their
occupants that too much advice would swamp
them. Brown and llamill now began a series
of "polkaing" on the river ; first Brown and
then llamill would "cross sides and up the
middle" with wonderful skill. This coquet
ting was carried on until Hamill's judges said
that Brown was "fouling" him, which
so disgusted llamill, and made him so sick
of the thing, that he threw up everything, in
cluding his oars, and said that, though he was
a sportsman and fond of sport, his boat was
not a fouling piece, and he was not going to
bring down his game by running it down.
Brown kept on pulling until he arrived at the
place of starting, with llamill nowhere in
- v . 0 eww
was that llamill had not noticed the stake
boat and was still rowing down the river, and
was now somewhere near Cincinnati, as when
last seen he was going very fast in that direc
tion. - In about twenty minutes, however,
llamill was seen coming in slowly under"
double-reefed outriggers, and with his feathers,
which he had used for feathering his oar, con
siderably drooping. Cheer after cheer greeted
him as he drew near the bridge by his friends,'
so overjoyed were they to think that he had
arrived safe after such a delayed voyage. The
Portlander landed a little below, and went im
mediately up to the referee's h3iise to get the
stakes, as he felt very hungry for them. His
exercise on the river had wetted his appetite
as well as his clothes. While waiting there
llamill also came in, looking a little hungry
and exhausted, and claimed
A "focl" of the referee,
Which was resisted by Brown, who thought it
was not fair, considering he had worked as
hard as llamill; but the referee,, like the wise
fox, concluded to settle the difference between
the roosters by keeping it himself.
Though it had stormed in the morning, it
was nothing compared with the storm that
was now raised, accompanied with strong indi
cations of a heavy blow, but the clouds were
dispelled by our shining countenance breaking
in upon their councils, and wo agreed our
selves to hold the stakes without charge, even
if it was never settled any further. This oiler
of such unprecedented benevolence caused a
burst of laughter and good feeling among all
hands, and Brown started for the East, while
llamill and the rest of us remained to ex
amine into the merits of their claims, and
to discuss the question of employing a Claim
Agent who has experience in Bailors' claims,
to lend his Lund to secure a settlement.
EPISCOPA L CON VENTION.
AFTEItSOON SESSION.
The Convention met at 5 o'clock P. M., and
was called to order by the President.
A gentleman road a report from the Special
Committee relative to altering some of the
Canons of the Church.
Another gentleman said he would like to
hear the report before any of the Canons were
altered; that perhaps the report was loud
enough without making such an extensive
alteration.
-ft:
7"v
The gentleman replied that the report was
not allowed one under tho circumstances. ' :
The President said that, as they should take
the muzzle off the ox that treadeth out the
grain, so he thought the muzzle should be
removed from the Canons if it hiuderg their
eclcicncy. (Suppstd laughter.)
The Committee on the Church Almanad re
ported a change in the Marriage Ceremony,
that they thought necessary to the growing
requirements of the age. The alteration was
but slight, and with the permission of the
Convention they would read the change pro
posed, and the Convention could debate it
to-morrow. The Chairman of the Committee
then road -the following: "As the min
ister takes the ting he will say, ' Will
you take this brown-stone front, this car
riage and span, these diamonds, for thy
wedded husband f ' And the bride shall
say 'Yes.' Turning to the bridogroom, he
will say, 'Do you take this unpaid milliner's
bill, this high waterfall of foreign hair, these
affectated accomplishments, and feeble consti
tution for thy wedded wife?' And the man
shall answer audibly, 'Yes.' And the minis
ter shall say, 'What Mammon has joined
together, let the next best man or woman run
away with, so that the first divorce court may
tear them asunder.' "
It was moved that the report of the Alma
nac Committee be postponed for one week, to
allow the members to communicate with their
parishes.
No other business being before the Conven
tion, they adjourned.

blu kklrd or a while elephauU
Fact II. It Is notorious Hint the nrofrnMoii of the
burglar has advanced at a ranld pace within the lant
etkhl years, and what was thoroughly burglar-proo!
Iheu Is not so now, which accounts lor the laci that
wllhin the lsst throe years very few of Lillie's
BaleB have been rohhed. and the secret anonymous
circulars (lleirlliuleU by other sule-niiikets lat
terly, showing a x-rry few cases only. Is the strongest
evidence that b l a very small nuniher have been
rouneu loinis time, notwithstanding the large num
ber lu use, and the amount at stake II successf ul.
Fact III. lb' re are two, and only two, goneral
and K ittling riint Ullis Uin which nil burglar-proof
stiles are constructed. Tho one Is pouring liquid
Iron between and around bars of wrouulit Iran. hard.
emd at i eel, or any proper combination of metals.
tins principle is aapieu oy J. line, In the Chilled
Iron Sale, atid covered aud controlled by bis letters
patent.
the other Is made up of layers of plates, of different
meiiils, held loketherby bolls or riveis, or both. To
this principle II. era are various objections: The
cost Is double. TI.e wrounht Irou plates, which are
the strength of the safe, are oulnide, and are operated
upon by the v. bole catalogue ol burglarn' tools. The
bolls or rivets are easily lorced by suitable tools,
with or without powder, and cannot be sustained.
Ihe. formir irciitt, adopted l y Little, avoids all
these obJcctiouB. can be made any thickness, and
vt iihstaud any amount of resistance required; avoids
the rivets, bolls, etc.: has no wrought Iron outside to
be operated upon by burglars' Implements.
Fact IV. Mr. LIUIe, the Pa' er. tee. so soon as he
learned that It was powlble wltn the modern Im
proved tools tor burglars to grind through chilled
Iron or hardened steel, began experimenting to avoid
the dllllculty, aud alter much labor ana expense he
has perfected a system tor chilling Iron and combin
ing metals that Is enliiely proof against the burglar's
drill, or any other of his tools, eveu the wedge, war
ranted to Btand the hardest test practicable for any
burglar to make. As a proof of bis success, the fol
lowing certificate Is now ollered from tbe Novelty
W orks, New York:
vrrivK mivEtTT J row works.
New Yokk, lstti Lecembur, MOO.
Jiff-Mr. Leirti Utile, & iVii.-
CIkntlkmkn: We have subjected the sample of
uimieu iron you lurnisnea us to me most severe tests
I as regards dillllng through It) that we could brlug lo
ear upon It. aud without success.
It Is our opinion that it can only be penetrated by
tbe use of a large number of drills, and the expendi
ture of much power, with days of time.
And we think It Impossible lor a burglar, with bis
time ana power, to penetrate it at ait.
Youis truly,
Isaac V. noi.MKS. Superintendent,
I, yuan U. Hai l. Foreman.
And the following extensive Iron manufacturers In
Philadelphia, lioston, and Chicago, after the most
itiorougu tests, una the result to be suostautialiy the
same.
And their principal Iron Workers so certify:
Messrs. Itlerrlcu & Son, Koutbwark Foundry, Phlla-
ueipuia.
The Fllikley A Williams Works, Boston, Moss,
Tbe Union Foundry and the Northwestern Foun
dry, Chicago, 111.
Fact V. Tbe proposition made the public hereto'
fore Is Dw renewed : I will furnish Safes or Vault
Doors, of same size and capacity of other best makers.
and at one-third less price; and the same may be
tested when finished, and I will furnish the man lo
test the work of any other maker, and he shall fur
nish the man to test my work ; and tbe party so order
ing may accept the work which stands ihe most re
slstauce.ln any way or manner practicable for a burglar
to worn, i,
Fact VI. I would now say to any of the owners ol
Llllle's Safes, that, In view of the preceding facte, If
iney reel me neea or aaauionat security, i win ex
change with them, on lair terms.glvlng them all (he
late improvements, auu tne increased security, which
is claimed to be beyond tbe reach of Burglars, until
some new system shall be developed In the working
oi iron, wuicu wouiu now seem uaraiy possiuie.
Fact Vii. It Is true that the Sheet-Iron or common
Sate, as now made, under ordinary circumstances
(and .when notcru8hodbyhefalj
vere it has to be copied, for the Ink will soon fade out;
besides, tbe sale Is twisted up aud useless.
It Is equally trne that the Chilled-Iron Bate saves
the written matter In a perfect state, thai It does not
lade out or require copying, and that tbe sale Itself
Is ready for lurlher use. Auy number of trials iu
fires, certified to, prove these lacts. aud If any of the
sale venders who are distributing secret, anonymous
circulars lo injure the reputation ol LILLIK'd SAFK
are not satisfied with these statements, they can bave
tbe opportunity of testing by fire one or their own
Safes with LILLIE'S, ou equal terms, whenever
tbey so decide.
Fact VIII. In answer to the story circulated by
Interested parties, tbut Lillie's Safe had goue up, and
had ruined Lillle, etc.. I would say that at no tune in
the last two years could Llllie&Son half supply the
demand for S.tfes, and were under the necessity uf
loi tiling a large slock company, with a very large
capital, to imet the demand; and Air. Lewis Lillle. fcr.,
is now the president of that company, which Is located
on the Delaware. In Pennsylvania, near Kits ton, and
Is ihe largest Safe Works probably In existence, aud
will be able to supply all demands lor Safes, Locks,
Chilled-Iron Vaults, etc.
In conclusion, I beg to call the attention of my
patrons end friends, aud the public, to tbe facts here
prebeniea, and to say tbat I am very thaukful for
past lavors, and that I am prepared to furnish LIL
Llt'S II L KG LA K AND FJRE AND BURULAIt
PROOF SAFES, VAULT DOUK8, CHILLED IRON
VAULTS and COMBINATION LOCKS, all at short
notice, warrautcd lo be the best and cheapest in
market. I also Keep constantly a large assortment
of tecond-hand Fire Proofs, taken lu exchange for
Llllle's Burglar Proofs, of the best-known makers,
all put in good order, aud oileied al below usual auo
liou prices.
