The Duke of Iticlnond's horse was admirably ridden by the Hon. Captain Berkeley ; and, but from the circumstance of being all in a hand4etchbf in the sgs. Sweepstakes, at the push ing corner, whereby he lost a length, it may be fairly augured he would have won all be started for. BOXING. Fight between T. nt Reynolds (of the London ring), and Sant nionds, a boxer who had beaten every one opposed to hint in Lancashire.—'Phis match was made at two days' notice, in con sequence of a set-to bet\veen the above combatants, at Manches ter, in which Sammonds had the best of it, on Monday last, at Isfaccksfield, for a purse of £4O, within a mile of the above place. So early as twelve o'clock, SO,OOO persons assembled.— At three o'clock, in a thirty-Mot ring, Sammonds threw up his hat, attended by his seconds, Felton and Meares; and shortly afterward, Reynolds, supported by Cope, of Lancashire, and a stranger, repeated the above token of defiance. Even betting. ROLND 1. Reynolds planted such a tremendous hit on the body, and also on the nab of 1.6 opponent, that Sammonds turred round, in such a complete state of stupiir, that he appeared like a piece of cluck-work moving its head. Reynolds, instead of frisking the contest, which was completely in his power, touched Santraoccis on the shoulder, and, in the most polite manner, re quested him to come and fight. Sammonds turned to, and with his lift hand gave Reynolds a black eye. Tom returned with great severity, on Sanimonds's nob, when the latter dropped, as i. Le 114,1 been shot. Great applause, but even betting. S. Sararnonds was floored, sops cerenumie. 7,. Sammonds was quite satisfied that be was contending *gala; a superior artist, and, in a struggle, Reynolds threw him. 4. Sammonds put in a tremendous blow on the throat of Rey r.ole:s, which sent him round like a top; hut the latter, on the Ewing, caught Sammonds on the temple, and drnppsd him. S. A brow in the wind-market spoilt Sammonds, and he went dow: , , as if he had taken leave of the surrounding scene. 6. Sanunci.ds again went down, without a shadow of chance. 7. Puynolls, by a well-directed hit, made Sammonds perform afii•- • fv, and the head of his opponent not only went where his heels had stood, but his heels actually went up into the air.— Sammonds was totally insensible, but Reynolds, with the truest feeling, wenttip and shook hauls with his opponent. Sammonds remained in a state of stupor for ten minutes. Reynolds, with the utmost liberal:t., , gave Sammonds a 1:3 note. The latter is a very game mar., and did everything in his power to win.— Reynolds shewed himself an out-and-out good one, and had not a scratch upon his face. CURTIS AND YOUNG BROWN. To-morrow, within ten miles of Londot., one of the best little fights will take place between the above heroes. The white top por is the favourite, five and six to four ; bat the sprig of myrtle, Brown, is much fancied. It must prove a most scientific tight. In addition to the above, for a purse, the Don tY Suffolk, under the direction of Tom Owen, will light any one of his weight.— The younger Abbot is expected to come forward on this occasion. GREAT CRUELTY to THE SPORTING WORLD. . . _ IConkey, weighing only 12Ibs. has, within the last few days, encountered several of the best bred dogs of 24Ibs. weight. The odds, in the first instance, were against the monkey, two to one; but strange to observe, the monkey, in the combats, with his tusks seized upon the dogs, and cut their throats as if done with a razor. In the short space of a minute, most of the dogs have been disabled from the loss of blood, and died within a few hours after the battles. This circumstance has quite astonished the sporting world. There is little doubt but the best dogs of 3011,5. weight mot, in combat with the above mcakey, fall a sac race. ATTEMPT AT MURDER AND ARSQN. i t Yesterday morning, about half-past one o'clock, a owl called et:the house of Dr. Wakely, of No. 5, 'Argyle -street, Oxford-street, and knocked at the door ; all the servants were in bed, and Dr. Wakely, 'who was indisposed, was in his apartment, putting lame leeches to his temples. He placed a bandage roundihis head; and proceeded to open the door ; on doing a which the man, who appeared to be flurried, said that he had come from a Mr. Iveson, one of the Doctor's patients, who was dangerously ill, and re quired his immediate attendance. The fellow re questing a glass of cider, as he was fatigued by a long journey, Dr. Wakely complied, and went down stairs to the cellar to procure him a glass. During the time, it is supposed that the villainadmitted some accomplices. On the Doctor's return to the passage, he observed something rush towards him, and at the moment he received a tremendous blow on his head, which knocked him down. It was with some in strument, and at the same time the destructive wea pon of the assassin was aimed at his breast, on which he received a stab ; he then thrust the instrument a second time, which passed through the collar of the Doctofs coat, waistcoat, and neckcloth, and pene trated his skin ; he received other injuries, and while he lay in the passage, he received violent blows from some person or persons. In this deplorable state he laid for three quarters of an hour, without the least asistance, when he was roused from his stupor by the flames in immense bodies rushing down the stairs, and the intense smoke. He with difficulty rose, and crawled out the back way. He climbed, through a sky-light leading to the house of Mr. Thompson, nest door, in whose parlour he was afterwards found weltering in his blood, and apparently in a dying state. He was immediately carried to the house of Mr. Parker, in Argyle -street, where Doctors Luke and Cater attended and dressed his wounds. On Dr. Wakely being supported to the above house, a daring villain unfeelingly snatched at the Doctor's watch, and got it Worn his f: )1) : he had the presence of mind to seize the villain by the collar; the property was recovered, and he was taken in custody to the watch-house. Dr. Wakely, after being dressed, was put to bed, and yesterday morning he bled himself, and tearful that his wife, to whom he was lately married, should be alarmed by the too speedy intelligence of the atro (ions deed, although in so dreadful a condition, he proceeded to his country residence yesterday morning. Three quarters of an hour had elapsed before the fire was discovered by Dr. Wakely, who, as well as he was able, made an alarm ; the servants imme diately arose and made their escape. A lamplighter broke in the parlour windows, on which the flames burst forth in a great body, and the neighbourhood was in a moment illumined ; the utmost confusion prevailed, and the inmates of the adjacent houses were seen, in almost a state of nudity, to take refuge in other houses. In a short time several engines ar rived, and having plenty of water, played with great activity on the element, which seemed to threaten destruction to all around it, and persons were em ployed saving the furniture. In a few hours the house of Dr. Wakely was completely gutted, and what property these was in the house (if not stolen) was destroyed. Property, consisting of guineas, to an immense amount, was in one of the upper apart ments, which the firemen will be employed to search after, in order to asceitain whether any robbery was committed, or if the above transaction proceeded from malice. The mys:eiious affair has caused many suspicions to be circulated. A short time ago Dr. Wakely re ceived several threatening letters, signed " Jealousy is the cause, but it is from a friend." The man who called was unknown to Dr.Wakely, and the case is involved in the greatest mystery.— During the course of the day various persons of dis tinction about the neighbourhood made inquiry after the state of Dr. Wakely, and the answer was, " Al thrugh severely injured, there are hopes of his recovery." Fortunately the adjoining houses, belonging to Mr. Thompson and Mr. Hodgson, are not injured, save a slight scorching. So great an interest was excited by the quick cir culation of the above horrid transaction, that crowds of persons assembled; and Mr. Farrant, the Magis trate, in the course of the day attended with Mr. Dyer, and took the examination at the house of Mr. Parker, of the servants belonging to Dr.W.skely, and other persons, but he himself was in such a debilitated condition that he was unable to give his depositions. The Surgeons who examined the wounds on the body of Dr. Vt'akely, did not think that they were of that serious nature as to affect his life, but the fortu nate circumstance of his having put the bandage round his head prior to opening the door, prevented' the violent blow he received having a serious effect; the blow was given by some heavy instrument, and must have been aimed with a deadly intention. No clue whatever can be formed as to the parties concerned in this atrocious affair. Information was immediately given at the Police Establishments, and likewise at the Secretary of State's Office, for the purpose of causing bills to be circulated for the ap prehension of the party. Officers have also received necessary instructions ; and we trust, that in a short time the persons capable of such a horrid transaction will be brought to justice. This account of the above fire is involved in some mystery, and requires to be explained in various points. Covent-Garden Theatre is to open on the 11th of September, with some addition of new Pet formers to their present excellent Company. The House has also been improved in appearance. About two years ago the Tree Pink, from the island of Seriphos, in Greece, was brought, in a living state, to the botanical garden of Cambridge, by Mr. RAWSON, of Halifax. This plant, the Pianthusfru ticostis of Linnzus, is now in full flower. It blos somed for the first time upon the 17th instant, in the evening. This beautiful shrub, promising so great an ornament to the green-house of this country, has already attained the height of two feet. The stem is twisted, woody, brittle, and hard, covered with a dark cloven bark ; the leaves grow in tufts, and the flowers, which are numerous, are solitary. The petals are shorter than when the plant flowers in its native country, Wit exhibit a very beautiful appearance. FROM SATURDAY NIGHT'S GACETTE. • BANKRUPI 4 CY SUPERSEDED. .

In the afternoon of Saturday se'nnight, a most disas trous thunder-storm visited Dennington, and the skirts of the neighbouring places. Distant thunder was repeatedly heard in the afternoon : between five and six o'clock the lightning was exceedingly vivid, accompanied• with loud and near explosions, at the same time it rained fast : at ten minutes before six, a most terrific and truly alarming shower of hail, or rather of globulous pieces of solid ice, generally of l from three-quarters of an inch, to an inch in diameter, fell with such velocity as to break almost all the glass in the windows exposed to the South-west, from whence the storm came. The windows and sky-lights 'of the Hon. Rev. F. Hotham sustained much injury. The damage done to the corn fields is almost incal culable; the uncut barley and oats ate nearly strip ped of the grain. Wheat has suffered almost as much. Barley, oats, and peas, that were cut, are literally threshed ; in many instances there are not more than a coomb an acre which was not beat eut. The gar dens and fruit-trees have equally suffered. [he storm of ice continued about 20 minutes ; in many places it was 12 inches deep. The next morning some larks were found dead, and much bruised. It appears the storm of ice was almoq exclusively con fined to this place, its greatest breadth scarcely ex ceeded a mile and a half, and its length little more than three miles.

Friday se'nntgbt, Mr. Wightwki, of New Romney, ta perienced the loss of a very promising two yearling colt, ander the following negligent circumstances:—Mr. W. having given permission to a man to mow the rushes in the field vs he': the colt, with another horse, was oepastured; the man whilst he ate his dinner, left his scythe in the field, and having law e.x.stif down to sleep, the horses approached him, and on his arousing and jumping up, from one of them barite* toucheo they became frightened, and in galloping away the coh uad upon or struck against the scythe, by which means one of ns fore legs was completely severed a little above the parsing j.nrz. As soon as the accident was made known to Mr. W. he Lame diately gave directions for the animal being killti, to prevent a furtherance of its sufferings.
