This battle, for the Norwich Subscription Purse of 100 Gui nea., took place on Monday, at North Waisham, 16 miles from the City of Norwich. and above 130 from London.—Norwich vies with London in pates .icing these athletic sports. So great an assemblage was scarcely ever witnessed berfete. The guess at number wt; thirty thousand persons, among whom were many well-dressed females. The Norwich Pugilistic Club have their forms of ring-making superior to the London style, the stakes being higher, and the ropes so prepared as not to injure the men in active combat. In addition to this, in one part of the ring, a platform was erected of immense height, so as to give a distinct view to five hundred spectators. Painter has lately turned pub lican at Norwich, and is much respected. He was beat by Oliver at StiePperten Range, some years since, when both men were stronger, but they were comparatively mere novices in science to the present day. Oliver won that fight, but he was much perished, although trained by Captain Barclay. The fight we are about to retard bad many changes, and a finer display of science was never seen. Meer first entered the ring with his seconds, Cribb and Belcher, and Painter followed, accompanied by Spring, as his second, and Paul, from Manchester, as his bottle-hoider. A parley then ensued as to Painter's right of re ceiving the waggon-money without Oliver having his participa tion in it, and this amounted to et least .£100! and there was au extra pule of a shilling a head for those who entered the field, gentle or simple. This also amoun te d t o a great stake, n o t les s than ter° berms containing atedge to the amount of i2OO. Sant lhigatiens took place between the white bag and deaf box men, until Oliver's seconds waved the right of rowing in the waggon game, and they buffed it. Betting 5 to 4 on Painter, who weighed 13st. 41b. and Oliver 12st. 81b. The ring of 24 feet was formed in excellent style, and an outer ring of immense space was formed with ropes, also tiekeep back the anxious pedestrians. ROUND 1. Much caution was used before the combatants met, and some masterly attitudes excited admiration. Oliver made a scientific parry of Painter's heavy-hitting right hand. They broke away, and Painter placed a flush right-handed hit upon the jaw, and in closing got Oliver's head confined with his left arm, and had a good weaving -match at him ; but Oliver broke from his hold, and some counter hits were exchanged. Painter gave his head inclining forward for Oliver to make play, and in trying fur a left-handed hit upon the head; Oliver received two blows, and in struggling for the throw Oliver won it, but Pain ' ter had decidedly the best of the round, and the uproarious ap plause of the country people could have bent hprdMiles eff. - 2. Oliver placed a smart left-banded hit upon his adversary's body, and Painter chewed first ?dead on the side of cite nose, from the struggle in the former round, which lasted 12 minutes. Oliver parried Painter's right hand again, and returlied upon the throat with the left hand, when some courageous fighting, bull dog fashion, took place, but Printer fought shy, and seemed to depend upon his heavy right hand. Oliver placed blows left and right upon Painter's head. A rally followed, and counter-hies were exchanged, when Painter got his adversary's head -again under his arm, administered some punishment, and got Oliver suspended across the lower rope of the ring, and let him go down wi:hout hi:ting him-2 to lon Painter: 3. Oliver placed a tremendous right-handed blow upon his adversary's head, which hit him away, and set the balls of his eyes in cetra motion, and threw him in a close.—Betting as at the commencement. 4. A gallant round, in which much skill was displayed, but Painter appeared thick-winded at the onset. Hy gave his head again to induce Oliver to make play, and was creeping his left foot on to get it behipd Oliver's tight, to place his formidable right-handed blow, in which he succeeded; but Oliver returned upon him, and had the best of in-fighting, but the worst of the weaving close again. Oliver gave Painter first knock-down blow with his right hand upon the head, and betting was even. • 5. Oliver placed a left-banded blow upon the head, and a daring fighting round followed, la which Painter placed one of his right-handed 'puzzlers, which stupified his antagonist for the, moment. Ne better courage could be shewn, And the give and' take game was the order of fighting to every part of the ring, until both were tired, and Oliver was thrown. 6. Both distressed fin. wind, sparred at respectful distance until they had partially recovered, when Oliver placed a heavy left-handed blow upon his adversary's eye, and a close foll Owed, in which Oliver had the worst, and.both went clOwn. 7. Both were too tired to commence hitting until Painter made play, when a very determined and manly round was fought, and both were down again, much distressedv 8. Painter's right ogle was nearly darkened, but tL•ey turned loose at each other again with great gallantry,and Painter floored his antagonist by a heavy blow behind the ear. 9. Oliver placed two good blows cpan his adversary's head in this round, and Painter appeared the more distressed of the two, and htd lost his strength of hitting from loss of wind, and in cicping both were down, "Painter under; Oliver was backed to win at 5 and 6 to 4. 10. Both were se much distressed, that in advancing towards each other they dropped their hands as if conscious of their in ability to hurt each other. When they did get to work some slaughtering took place, and at the close Oliver went down from the effect of his own blow. 11. This was the last round, and rath....r abruptly terminat.:d the battle in 54 minutes. Oliver went to work with much des peration, although bleeding freely from the nose, hut Painter's head shawed most of punishment, and both temples had nearly stopped his sight. Oliver had the of the first part of the round, but he received a heavy hit in the close upon the temple, which ikored him, and he could not come again to time, ;•nd the dolial was a welcome omen to the conqueror, Painter, whose existence was at stake. 'ltestsess.—lt was altogether a manly fight, and both men peeled in good condition. Changes Cook place in nearly every round, but Painter's heavy right hand, with nearly i stone of weight over Oliver, gave him a decided superiority. Both be.. haved in the most manly manner, and both displayed the finest science; but Painter was the most punished of the two. MARTIN AND SAMPSON. This fight (for a Purse of ,E5O) occupied 29 rounds, lasting third-nine minutes. Martin was seconded by Cribb and Spring, and Sampson (the Birmingham Youth) by Turner and Paul.— Both of the combatants were much punished, and Martin did not win in the high style that was expected. The rain now came down in torrents, and prevented a third fight, wilich was to have taken place between Belasco and Teas dale.—lt turned out a severe wet evenirg, and the numerous swells from London, and the Norwich far.ey, returned to the City completely drenched.—On the whole it was a prime clay's play.—Painter, it is said, will net £lOO9 by his victory. He had a benefit on Saturday, which also produced a good sum.. At Norwich all was bustle, and many rsills took place. At St. Austin's Gate there was a set-to between two weavers, one of whom had his arm and three ribs broker.. MINOR PUGILISTIC CONTESTS. Carmsr.E.—The Furey of Carlisle were gratified on Thursday with a e3ular sei-lo between Tars .1:41 , 7, of rei tiN-, notoriety, and Mqrey, an I liberniar, reckoned the don of' the canal men. The fight was for live guineas a side. There were eleven well. contested rounds, which lasted thirty minutes, acd terminated 1:1 favour of Yoga —At Darnall Feast, on Mocday se'nnight, two young men having quarrelled, a pugilistic contest ensued, when one of them, Wiliam Shorter, a slater, of Sheffield, received a blow in the rietuellin,gibrice, which caused his instant death. An Inquest was held on the holly, and the Jury returned a verdict of Man slaughter against his antagonist, Roi'a4 Eyre, who was com mitted to York Castle. frechaste? Races have proved more pre-eminently attractive than those - cif Many past years, and imparted an unusual degree of gaiety to the City. They commenced on 1 uesday se'nnight, and he.cer spurg was never witnessed than during the three liar. The Course was each day crowded With splendid equipages, contair:i:•g all the Hank, Beauty, Fashion, and respectabidty of the Comty. The Stewards' ball, on Thursday, at St. John's Hlluse, was attended by nearly 400 permits, and presented an assemblage of beauty,' Rank, and Fashion, seldom collected nether to . Winelaester. Yesterday,. Lord Wirt.t.tAst Russtra. and Mr. H. WntranEAD presented the folbwing Aidress to her MAJEJTV : " TO HER MOST GRACIOUS MAJESTY CAROLINE AME- LtA IMIZARST/I, QUEEN OF ENGLAWD. ° The dutiful and loyal Address of 'the Householders and lAA-. bitants of the ancient Town and B oroug h o f B e df o rd. " We, hiv Majeity's faithful and.loyal subjects of the Town and Borough of. Bedford, beg leave, with every assurance of loyalty and attachment, to offer to your Majesty our most sin cere and cordial congratulations on your Majesty's accession to your royal title, and on your Majesty's' safe return to the Bri tish Empire. In offering our congratulations, we cannot refrain from ex pressing our sincere and heartfelt condolence on the irreparable losses which your Majesty, as well as the whole Nation, have sustained, by the death of your late beloved and amiable daugh ter, the Princess Charlotte, on whom the hopes ar.d expectations of the Country had so fondly and affectionately rested ; well as on the death of our late most gracious Sovereign King George the Third, who ever proved himself your Majesty's most warm and steadfast friend. " It is with feelings the most painful. and with the most gehuine emotions of sympathy and grief, that we advert to the circumstances which at present so unhappily.exist, and that express ,oer abhorrence of the proceedings that have hitherto been adopted against your Majesty's peace and honour, as well as of the indignities to which your Majesty has been so pecu liarly and so unwarrantably exposed; by which the whole Na tion has been insulted, in the person of their Queen. " The only consolation we feel ori ll this occasion, is derived from the dignified, open, and magnnnimous conduct, which your Majesty has adopted, which is at once the strongest refuta tion against ydur accusers; (although backed by a combination of secret Spies and Informers,) as well as the strongest presump tion of your Majesty's innocence. " Your Majesty's protest against a Secret Tribunal, and a de mand for a full, free, and open inquiry—your Majesty's refusal of a bribe so basely offered, as well as those concessions on the part of your accusers, (because they were incousistenf either with your innocence or honour,) is a conduct well worthy of the Queen of England. " The just administration of the laws of our country is a sub ject of such vast importance to the whole Nation, that we can not but view with the strongest feelings of jealousy axd alarm, the result of the present proceedings. " The appointment of a Secret Committee, composed of your Majesty's accusers, comparing themselves to a Grand Jury, Ly presenting a Report and introducing upon it, a Bill of P..ins and Penalties, before either witnesses have been examined or allega tions proved, is a measu:e derogatory to the best interests of the whole Nation. " Notwithstanding these almost insurmountable obstacles to truth and justice, and the measures that have been adopted to prejudge the question, by the most it:justifiable reports being circul-t4l, before your !Majesty is able to repel them, we sin cerely trust your Majesty may be enabled to prove your inno cence to the confusion of your accusers. " We, therefore, hone shortly to hail the day, when your Majesty will be establis hed, in full possession of all your just rights, and sincerely trust that the honour, welfare, and loneliest of your Majesty, may long continue. " Signed on behalf re the Meeting, " Bedford, July 11, 1820. " JOHN GREEN, Mayor.' Her MAJESTY returned. the following gracious Answer: " I receive, with the most cordial satisfaction and gratitude, the assurance of the affectionate attachment of the Mayor and Inhabitants of the ancient Town and Borough of Bedford. " The condolence and sympathy expressed for the irreparable loss which I have sustained daring my absence from Englan4 in the persons of my beloved daughter, and his late revered Ma jesty, is most valuable to me, and offers the only Alleviation to my feelings of which the circumstances admit. " It is no slight aggravation of the pain occasioned by those severe losses, that those enemies, who for years have been seeking my destruction, no sooner perceived that 1 am destitute of that protection which before shielded me, than their attacks were renewed in a form scarcely admitting resistance ; boundless as are the means of overawing and corrupting, possessed by these implacable foes, no leis of his Majesty than of myself; and however well calculated may have been their measures to affect my destruction, by secret machinations, followed by the most audacious acd industrious circulation of slander of their own creation, I yet feel confident that that justice which has hitherto been the brightest characteristic of the British Nation, will not be sacrificed or tarnished in my person. At the same time, I cannot but be astonished and grieved', that these slanders should have been in any respect sanctioned before I have been heard in my defence, furnished with any specific charge, or suffered to know who are the witnesses by whom I have thus been reviled. " To whatever dangers, however, I may be exposed, from the power and malice of my enemies, never can regret that I did not submit to purchase security, and become party to my own degradation, by consenting to continue absent from the King dom, under a compromise which must have equally affected the honour of all concerned. I thank you for your manly and gene rous expression that the insults offered to your Queen you feel as offered to the Nation ; and be assured, that while my honour ii identified with the Nation's, (from which it never can be really separated,) with Goo ' s help, I will maintain it in the face of every danger, and to the last moment of my life ; feeling at the same time, that no sacrifice but that of the honour of the Country, can be too great to promote the prosperity and happi ness of a Nation to which I already owe so much." A numerous and respectable Meetir.g of the In habitants of the Borough of Newbury was held at the Town Hall, on Saturday, Jotis HASICER, Esq. Mayor, in the Chair, when the following Resolutions were unanimously agreed to: • i. That this Meeting, as dutiful and loyal subjects to the King, feel a deep interest in everything that concerns the ho nour and happiness of his Royal Consort, Queen Caroline, and do most warmly congratulate her ".Uajesty upon her safe return to Oh Kingdom. " 2. That England has hitherto been regarded as a nation of civilization and humanity, in which the social obligations of cour. tesy and morality. have been held in the highest veneration. " 3. That these principle: appear to be most outrageously vio lated by the manner in which our Queen has been treated by the evil advisers of his - Majesty ; by insidious attempts to banish that august Personage, upon the grounds of accusations unsub stantiated, and to us appearing, upon the evidence of past expe rience, as far as yet divulged, to be calumnious, malignant, and in aU human probability . , unfounded. " 4. That we admire the prompt refusal of her Majesty to compromise her honour, for any pecuniary consideration—the magnanimous and decisive conduct she displayed by fier unhesi sating confidence in the loyalty and justice of the British Nation —the courage she has evinced iu boldly meeting her accusers, protesting against all secret investigations, and demanding an open and constitutional tribunal. " 5. That we trust her Majesty will be established in the full possession of all her just rights, and long reside among a People zealously attached to the house of Brunswick. " G. That a dutiful and loyal Address be presented to her Majesty, expressing our condolence and congratulations, founded upon the above ResoTptions.. " 7. That the Thanks of this Meeting be given to M. Wood, Esq. Alderman, and M.P. fur the City of London, for the great, public, and independent spirit, he has di4played in the loyal acrd resix:ctful attention shewn w her Majtsty gheen Caroline." The Thanks of the Meeting uete also carried by acclamation to the MAYOR, for his able conduct in the Chair. Yesterday Mt. Gam and a Deputation, accom panied by Mr. Alderman Wool) ; presented the Ad dress, (amide(' On these Resolutions, to her MAJZSTIN, ... .„ • ' HOUSE OF LORDS, JULY is. The Earl d H A RDWICX F. presented a Petition front s Mr. Thomas Prendergast, against the Irish Chancery Bill in its I present state. On the question for the third reading of the Glasgow Statute Labotir Bill, The Earl of LAUDERDALE address( d their * Lordship% and said that the measure, in its present shape, he could not btu iregard as an invasion of private property. It bore the clerac i ter of injustice on the face of it ; the least that could he done, he thought, was to re-commit the Bill H e t h en re f erre d' to some I of its leading provisions, which he impugned in unqualified terms, and concluded by moving that the Bull be recommitted. The Duke of MONTILOSE vindicated the measure, and the principle on which it proceeded, which, in his tried, was one of clear and obvious jentice. The measure had the felest discus sion in a Committee, and Counsel were heard r.spect:rg it, and I the sense of the Committee was in favour of the Nil as it now stood before the House. The City of Glasgow, their Lord. ships would recollect, had, within the last thirty or forty yeaiv, ince: ased is extent almost incredible, and the formerpeans of ' supplying,the Cit y with wlt.it the Bill went to provide, had tie. cessarily become inadequate, and in the way of remedy the pre sent measure was pro: med. The Earl of ROSSLYN supported the chjections of the Isto- ble Earl, but he adverted to certain modifications which,' f adopted, he should be induced to acquiet..-e in. Lord REDESD ALE argued briefiy in support of what fell from the Nair Duke. The Earl of LA LT Dr'.ll D ALP. suggested an amendment on the occasion et the third riachug. A division took place, and the third reading of the Bill, as originally proposed, was carried by a con.iderable majority. Lord ELIA:NE . OEOI:GLi s.iti, he should :move that their Lorsiships be summoned far to-morrow to consider a clause in the Marriage Act ; and also, that the Order of the Day foi their Lordships' ring into a Committee on the Irish Chancery Regu lation Bill, which stood for to-morrow, be postponed. After a short conversation on the subject, in which Lord REZIESDALE, the Loan Cirsecettoe, atld I. , :rd Hot.tAge; took part, it was agreed, on tfie suggestion of the latter N , .1 . ..:e Lord, that the Order of the Day .for going into. a Committee should he suffered to stand for to-morrow, as already fixed, and thenbe further postponed if necessary. On the motion of the Farl of Lutearex, and after a few words from his Lordship respecting the measure, the Irish Ltnatie Asylum Bill was read the second time. ADDITIONAL POSTAGE DILL. On the question for the second reading of this Bill, The Earl of LAUDERDALE observe.!, there was some important information touching the subject of this Bill, which it was his intention to move for, as necessary to the due understanding of the measure. He allude;!, among other points, to the estimates which were furnished respecting the expenses elf the plan, the per tentage to be alloyed. and the arree ment concluded with. the Chancellor of the Esche quer. The plan would give a facility to the crac• tice of jobbing, on the part of rival mercantile houses. He could also wish to have laid.before the House copies of the correspondence between certain Mer chants of Leeds and of Halifax, and his Majesty's Postmaster-General, relative to the mischiefs that would ensue from the estent.of rival speculation, to which the measure woulc i lzije rise. • The Earl of LlVEll. 1.. observed generally, that he had no objection to afford every proper pr necessary information on the subject in his power.— In this, the consideration of the least inconvenient form would naturally have some weight. The House would be aware that neither the First Lord of the Treasury nor the Chancellor of the Exche quer could individually hold, any official correspond ence—annunciations of that kind must take place with the Board, and through the n - edium' of the Secretary, and in communicating documents of the kind, they should be cautious not to accede to that which may operwe• as a bad precedent. With respect to a bargain duly entered into on the occasion, nothing of the kind bad taken place. The real ques. tion for their Lordships to consider was, whether it was fit to entertain this .measure? As to die cir cumstances, the fact was, that a large body of indi viduals-connected with Liverpool and Glasgow, re presented to the. Treasury a project for facilitating ,_ and expediting the intercourse between those towns and London, which they alleged may be performed la half the usual time. On inquiry it wa s d e cr i ed that the plan was practicable, but to what des ee of success remained to be tried ; and it was thought by the Board desirable that the experiment should be made, but on one road only, that to Manchester and Liverpool. If the project should be attended with success, the plan may be extended, and one effect would be, that the Post, which heretofore was re ceived in London on a Friday, would be, under the 'new plan, received, on the Wec:aesday. The question therefore was, whether they should pass the present as an experimental Biil.
