The Cornell Regatta.

The Cornell Navy is making arrangements to hold a regatta during the week following commencement, on June 23 and 24. The expenses of the visiting oarsmen from Columbia and the University of Pennsylvania, are estimated at $1,500, and an effort is being made to induce Ithaca merchants to subscribe $2,000 to the support of the crews.

The races will probably be rowed on the east side of Cayuga Lake, and be watched from observation trains. The old dancing hall at Glenwood will make a good boat house, and there are enough cottages in the neighborhood to afford accommodations for the oarsmen. Representatives of Columbia and University of Pennsylvania will go to Ithaca this week, to examine the quarters, and perfect final arrangements.
