The departure from Neweastle of Edward Hanlan, the champion sculler of England and Ameriea, was yesterday morning sig- nalised by a demonstration of a Kitd al- together exceptional in the annals of aqua- tics. Between three and four thousand people found their way within the precincts of the railway station, and the crush on the general platform and on the’ en- closure was © simply ° extraordinary. When the champicn ‘was recognised in’ the streets on his way to the sta- tion, crowds gathering at every step fol- lowed him, cheering and ‘expressing hearty good wishes as he went along. Arrived at the station, it was only by dint of the greatest exertions that the. party could make their way from the ticket office to the train. A special force of railway-pelicemen had to be organized in» order -to drive a passage through the crowd; and when Han- lan had been safely landed on the départure watform, these officials had to form a cor- him, so.as to keep oil: the pres- site: We need scarcely say t that the cheer ing and enthusiasm which greeted the champion as he stepped into’a first-class compartment, cage heggared descrij)tion. Lond cries for a **‘ few words” arose from the vast aincwnblnge, and Hanlan, whose modesty and reticence of speech are well known, needed some persnasion from his ‘riends before acceding to the request so generally made. At length he motioned his hand for silenge, and «said it was from no desire to retain silence that he had so long resisted their call, but that his heart was really too full to express the feclings with which he regarded the people of Newcastle generally, and expecially those who had by their kindness made his stay so pleasant, and had come, perhaps at some personal inconvenience, to bid him fare- well on his departure. In all his wander- ings he had never met with a people more warm-hearted, mere hospitable, and more willing to do justice, and even to honor a stranger. ‘He could say ne more than that he should never forget the generous people with whom he had: ‘spent such a pleasant time, and he thanked them all very heartily With reference to any future ehampionship match, Hanlan said hé would be very glad to row at Toronto any seullér who would choose to come out, but it was his intention to defend the Cup, and whether at Toronto or on the Tyne or Thames he was ready to nicct all comers. About*five minutes before the time of the train’s departure a singularly pleasant episode occurred. Loud cheers from the crowds outside heraléed the ap- proach ef the late champion. The people opened out a lane for Elliott and his com- panion Ralph Hepplevthite, of Elswick, and as the former came through the crowd, many pats on the back and expressions of approval greeted him for the good taste and friendly . feeling which? impelled him to see his successful rival away -on his long hhomeward journey. Elliott advanced to the carriage amidst such a scene as has rarely, if ever, been witnessed within this fine building, and Hanlan, on his approach, stepped out, and tie two scullers, warmly shook hands. Elliott wished the Canadian a pleasant voyage,and hoped that on his arrival at home he might find his family well, and the people of Tor- onto as appreciative of a good sculleras were these he was just leaving. Hanlan vas labouring under considerable emotion and could make but small response to Elliott's greeting, but his manner was nevertheless full of kindness, and the meet- ing between the pair was altogether very pleasant to witness. The moment for the departure of the train now arrived, and the ch: umpion, after a final farewell with Mr. Chris. Barrass, stepped into the carriage; the doors were clesed and the train moved away. The cheering and enthusiasm were renewed as the wheels got into motion, and - Hanlan. bending out of the window, ac- knowledged, hat in hand, the greetings which from all sides were showered upon After, the champien had -departed, upwards of two thousand people gathered round Elliott as he left the station. Cheers were raised for him, and he was,-aecom- panied to the house of, his old airiend Mr. Brownlee by the majer pari of ,the, asaeia- blage. The portrait bust of Hanlan, modelled an by Md.
