Since Joey Nuttell Joined the profealonal ranks, some years ago, the foremost amateur swimmer la Oreat Britain baa been J. H. Tyers, who has been prominently before the publlo three aeaaona. Dur- ing that time he has stesdlly advanced, with rather rapid strides, Ull he now stands at tbe front of all the natatorial experts abroad, either professional or amateur, tie haa developed remarkable speed at all distances up to five miles, and possesses an almost unbroken series or records at virions dis- tances from thirty-two and a half yards up. These were almost all accomplished during the past season, when, on almost every oc- casion on which ha appeared In pnbllc, whether In a regular race or In a trial ag.lnat former records, lie succeeded lu eclipsing the achievements of the start who shone resplendent previously to his sppearance on the scene. A resume of his schlevemanu during IBM will give the reader a good Idea or the ability i.f the subject ot our sketch, whose like nsa never been seen before in salt or treah water, and whose best powers haveevldently not yet been made manifest, so easily have all bis surprising performances been accomplished. Resd this list of unparalleled victories and records: Thirty-two and a half verde, straightaway, ami water, In ldXa., Nottingham, Kng., July 23; forty-two yards, straightaway, stilt water, la lea., London, Aug. 2*1 eighty eight yards, one tarn, SUM water, MKt., London, Aug. 24; ono hundred Jarda. three turns, still water, lm. 2Xe, Bury, una 2; one hundred yards, tour lams, still water, lm. 2a., Blackburn, Oct 26; one hundred and twenty yards, five turns, eull water, lm.

Tyers haa now gone through two seasons without meeting with asolltary defeat,and so handily has he won all his meet that the experts have not been able to satisfy themselves whether his forte Ilea In apeed or ability to endure fatigue: the (act la that In both these essential qualities for the formation ot a swimming oham- Eton Tyers notably excels. A peculiarity about lm la that, whatever may t» the distance, Tyera •tarts out at onoe to take the lead, and after once •souring It he doea not throw away any chances, but swims steadily for the goal, winning always with plenty to spare. As will be seen from his pic- ture, he la yet a very young man, fall ot energy, robust, with One physical powers, and, being am- blUoue, there la no doubt that yet greater acutevo- menta will be placed to his credit In the future.
