I have no ohJecilonsto thelaet clause, snd I admit tlw others are fair enough; bnt «s I do not dispute bis dalas to the cham- pionship,' I am not disposed to comply with them. I merely repeat that to sstlsfy toqulrles, snd aa Hr, Hamlll totlmated that he would meet me at the Boston Begatta, where he will have to bear his own expenses to contest for a purse only, I supposed he would have no oUeotlons to come here, and come tor a reason- able sum. With this view I offered a proposition to meet Um on the Hudson; It'he Is dlsposed\to accept, I will make the match; if not, therals an end of the matter.
