THE SCULLING CHAMPIONSHIP.
Sydney, Dec. 20. Beach is annoyed at Hanlan’s action in challenging the world to row him on the Thames, and has accepted the challenge to the extent of offering to meet the Canadian for £SOO a side on the Parramatta River. Beach makes no claim to the championship, but wishes to see Australian oarsmen fight U out among themselves, and will not let Banian come in by a side wind, and try to establish a claim to supremacy. In reply to the question, “ Supposing O’Connor beats our men?” he said, “ He will have to do what no other man has done—beat me.”
