Bishop, who has just arrived from Sydney, has been entrusted by Uanlan with tbe making of negotiations for rowing exhibitioi.sand champion mutches in New Zealand. The champion is apparently in clover in Sydney. He is feted wherever he goes, and is a great favourite. His first match in Australia will take place on 2:2 nd May. Hunt, the Sydney .sporting- publican, has made the arrangement, and the prize will be £1,000. ltis not yet known whether Irickett or Beach will be pitted against the champion. The latter declines to row anywhere but on the Paramatta championship course, but neither Tricket or H:iulan are very particular wh-t-re they row. Hanlan considers that Beach is the best man in Australia. He says that Laycock is the best man ever matched againsc him, and he believes Beach is a better man than the athletic Elias. The second match, which will also be for £1.000 will take place about the middle ot June. Hanlau then proceeds to Victoria ami South Australia, and he may be expected in Mickland about \Uijust, arriving probably in Wellington. A Standing Order— Same again all round.
