WE congratulate Mr. Goddard upon his victory, and we wish that more Harvard men might have witnessed it. As it proved, however, Mr. Goddard had no need of the presence of his friends for encouragement; and though the race was not an exciting one to those who watched it, it was all the more glorious for the winner and for Harvard. Probably it will be impossible to convince the public that it was not an intercollegiate race; but if the newspapers will have it so, we shall leave it to the Yale papers to wage the battle. Mr. Goddard may well feel rewarded for his efforts, and we hope that if he wins in the coming Senior Scullers' race, he may feel able to enter at Harlem next July.
