BOXING, BETWEEN SPRING AND OLIVER, tOO G4IIILS 411-SIDV, NEVMAX.IIMIADOWII,KATICILMIDOLIMEX. Yesterday was the first Spring Meeting of Gymnastic Sports, and at day-break in the morning the western road was all bustle. with the usual motley equipages, from the lordly barouche to the sweep and costernwagere xts out, intermixed with the Ber esosubsp *ruins and the seaterottlxv, and all seemed upon equa lity. The raincrites, as game as the Nonrich bull, started after l i their Monday night's diversions, and no adequate idea can be conveyed of the confused scene when the Fanciers approached the ring. When a great event is on the eve of being decided, much interest is excited; and, from the diversity of opinion re-, specting this battle, on which the best judges were at variance, a corresponding interest prevailed. Of the-biography of these heroes of the day's play, it will be sufficient to be brief. They arc first-raters of the present day, but as Inferior to their predecessors used asp as a would-be.trage- , dian to .a Kean of the present day. Both men beat Painter in their first battles, and both were vanquished by him in their be cord battles. Carter beat Oliver easily at Carlisle, and Spring Let Carter with the same ease at Crawley. Of their fighting, tipeloglas length and strength urns his adversary, and he beat Carter as the latter did Oliver, by hugging him, and half hang ing hint at the ropes of the ring. But Oliver is the best in-hitter, and fancied himself superior, Spring being a light hitter of his weight.—The groupes of horse and foot which had assembled at 5.,1.11.11, Slough, &c. on Monday, were disappointed in teAing ground, as the Bruits sent for Oliver, and without offering to mo lest his person, took his word that he would net fight there.— l'he Magpies, on flounslow Heath, was the next rendezvous, tmd from thence the cavalcade proceeded down a lane at Arlin:- ton Corner, where the ring was formed in a meadow, and tired !horses and ricketty vehicles were put up by hundreds; but here 'they were stopped again by Magisterial authority, and the nest ring as formed at Hayes; but two-thirds of the pedestrians, and half the horses, were beat. The Commissary having made the ring, the men entered, after doffing their hats and slinging them into the ring. Seconds—Cribb and Painter for Spring, and Tom Owen and Richmond for Ofiver.—Guineas to Pounds on Oliver. Itousins.-1. Spring parried Oliver's left and right-handed blows, and Oliver made play again, and placed a slight hit out of distance, when they closed, and after a short rally both welt down without mischief. 2. Oliver made a feint with his left hand to bring his adver sary within reach, and Spring, fighting upon his superior length, broke away. Oliver placed two blows, but they were not within executing distance. A close followed, and Spring tried to hold his man ; but Oliver got away, and in making a sally at Spring. he was knocked down cleanly by a flush hit on the mouth.— Oliver gathered himself up without the aid of his seconds instals). taneousty, and by his smile seemed to hold the event in disdain. b. This round showed the coolness with which the men fought, in placing their feet, by which boxers measure their distance (as the eye must be fixed upon the adversary's eye). Oliver stepped on_ Spring's toe, and feeling that he had done so, politely begged his pardon ! Oliver made a scientific parry of Spring's left hand. In a rally firing drew the first apparent claret from his adver sary's mouth, and threw hiru.—No betting. 4. Oliver made a left-handed hit, which Spring got cleverly away from, and Oliver's right hand also fell short. Oliver placed a blow upon his adversary's bead, and threw hint in a close. — Betting about 6 to 4 on Spring. 5. both threw away many blows, and it was evident that Oliver had not, length sufficient to place his hits. Spring got his adversary'S head under his left arm, but the weaving system was upon an equality. Oliver was thrown. 6. Spring had all the best of this ronnd. He hit his adversary , twice upon the heid, - and Oliver had not length enough to re turn, and he was thrown again. 7. Olivet made a rush, but he failed ; and Spring hit him heavily' upon' the neck, and threw him a severe fall, which knocked tae sensciout of him, and which he never recovered during the fight. Owen, his second, rallied him with " Halloo, Tom ! what is the matter—sae you going to sleep r It is true, be was in reel sleep; but the voice roused him. S. Olivet wont a with desperation, and had the best of a good rallying round, but his blows were not strong enough to mark his adversaty's face, and he was thrown. Oliver was much ex hausted; and, without accident, Spring had secured the battle to a certainty—it was all the town to 'Alilk-street. 9. Oliver fought most gallantly, and had none the wait of the first part gf the.round. lie placed three Mows, but still left no Mark, and he was again thrown. 10. Atter placing a weak left-handed hit, Oliver was floored cleanly, mid-deluged in blood. It was altogether a red suit for him. The hit cut him under the eye, which was nearly dislodged. It, 12, and 13. Thar was nothing to observe upoa. Oliver was bear, and he experienced falls enough to smash the hardiest inahese rounds. 14. This was a manly round, and Oliver triamostfeariessly to place his blow ; but Spring got his head under his arm, and smashed it with such lunging hint at the taming system, that it , was a contused mass .of crimson hue; and he received heavily also upon the body, and fell as a man would from a shot in the' right place. is. Oliver again displayed the most daring courage, but Spring had reduced his strength to &Avian, and he again weaved hint at the ropes, until Oliver's hackers called out, in the language of Shakspeare--" Hold, enough! take him away!" 16, 17, and 18. The amateur cobld only feel pity for the vanqiiished courage of ()liver, who persisted in daring-sego. I lotion. lie continued to stand up, or was rather led up to the' ' scratch, reeling like a drunkard who had swallowed a couple of quarts of Deatly's primrose, amidst the calls of " take him away !" until the end of the 23d round, when he became quite lost, and his seconds said 4 ' Enough !" for him. kiVVIARKS. Spring won the battle without a visible hit; and although the opinion is still entertained that he is not a punisher equal to his , weight, yet he is a most cautions boxer, of ninth strength, white he works well in, and is, like Randall, as busy with his feet as with his fists, with an eye like a hawk pouncing down upon his prey ; and if he cannot finish at one hit, be has two or three others in reserve. Oliver is one of the bravest of men, but he could nut get at his adversary. A liberal subscriptiou was got fur him.—A treater number of the Nubifity and Gentry were present than have been witnessed for some years. A second battle, of no interest, was'Yought by strangers to the ring, for k trivial purse. Thursday,- a melancholy accident took place at Camlaihie,. near Glasgow, to a young man, whe kept MR, Niietca's steam-engine.

A1;1) h4LL: • DUBLIN, VILBWIARY 16. Tuesday evening, a Fancy Ball took place at the Assembly Rooms, Royal Arcade, the entire suite of which, exten4g from College-green to Suffolk street, were throlin open. Shortly after nine o'clock the company began to assemble, and it was with some difficulty the characters could gain admission, from the crowds that thronged the adjacent streets, stop ping the carriages, and completely blocking up the doors of the Arcade. The company consisted of about two hundred, among which were many do mines, and also many in plain dresses; there were about one hundred and fifty characters. Jews, Turks, Gipseys, Watchmen, Country-boys, Sailors, Harle quins, Highlanders, and Conjurors, assisted in the hilarity of the evening. A military band attended; there were also a pedal harp and some violins in se parate apartments, for those whn chose to trip it on the light fantastic toe." Quadrilles seemed to be the favourite dances of the night, and were kept up with undaunted spirit until a late hour. The cele brated amateur, Mr. Plartire . r, appeared splendidly attired as. King Richard . the Third, in which cha-. racter he introduced the sung of " Scots whiz ha'e to Wallace bled," with the happiest effect. Mr. PLUN KIT'S performance added considerably to the amuse ment of the evening. He gave some recitations from Richard, in his own peculiar manner; but was inter rupted in one of the soliloquies, by a character re sembling Ach met, who called the watch, and charged him with murder, affirming that he had murdered Richard. The Watchmen, who for the most part of the night did their utmost to disturb the peace, in stantly sprung their rattles, shrieks were heard in all directions, and horror was depicted in every counte nance at the bare idea of Royalty being brought to the Round-house. Sylvester Da.gerwood then inter posed, and offered himself as bail for his brother of the buskin; but this would not do—poor Dagger:flood was not a house-keeper, never having, even on his be-• nefit night, had what could be termed a house!—' Various characters from all quarters of the globe (among which were Looney illactwolter), then offered themselves as bail, but here a new difficulty arose; the charge was capital, murder was not a bailable offence, and the Monarch was about to be consigned to the guardians of the night, when it was understood the• charge was abandoned. This seemed to give general satisfaction, and in a few moments Rickard was " himself again." One of the best supported characters (always excepting Richard), was a very well looking country girl (such as are frequently to be met with at fairs), dressed in white, with a neat cottage bonnet, trimmed with ribbon, and a silk i handkerchief tied carelessly round her neck : there was an arch expression of humour in her counte nance perfectly in character ; she danced admirably and with great spirit, the entire night, and she at tracted the particular and marked attentions of Loo ney Machuoller and a young Midshipman, who alter nately obtained her as a. partner in the festive dance. At half-past one, the supper-room was thrown open; here most of the characters played their parts -admtrably. After supper several songs were sung : Mr. PLuNKET favoured the company With BRAHAM's Polices ; The ray that kamsfor ever" (with varia tions), and several of the Irish Melodies. On Mr. PLUNKED'S health being drank, he returned thanks, in a speech of some length, which was received with acclamation. The company then returned to the other apartments, and dancing was renewed with unabated-spirit. Towards four o'clock, the Rooms began to grow thin, but it was not until after six that they were finally cleared. OLD BAILEY, FEBRUARY 19. J. Kiesall was put to the bar on a capital indict ment, charging.him with stealing, .in the dwelling-' house of J. Chitty, Esq. in Bedford-square; a quan tity of plate, value £lOO and upwards.—k appeared that the prisoner had been a short time in the ser vice of Mr. Chitty, as footman. That on the 6th .of December, about six in the evening, he left the house of his master, taking with him the whole of his livery, &c. About nine .o'clock, on the return of the butler, it was discovered that the plate-ehest had been completely emptied; and the pi isoner not re turning, suspicion fell on him. Mr. Chitty adver tised the prisoner, and a Constable, at Gloucester, named Marsh, seeing the advertisement, apprehended him in that City, and brought him to London : other servants made out the charge against the prisoner. The prisoner, in his defence, stated, that on the night of the robbery, a wottlati called on him at his master's house, to receive some linen she was to wash; that he went out to fetch some porter for her, and while he was gone she left the house, taking with her the property charged in the indictment ; and be ing fearful he should be ,taken for the robbery, he left the house. Mr. Justice BEST summed up the evidence, re marking on the improbability of the prisoner's story. The Jury, without turning round, found the prisoner Guilty—Dead,. Aged 23. W. Harrison and W. Haines were indicted for breaking and entering the house of K. Plunkett, with intent to steal. The Judge (RicuanDsois) in summing up, said, if .the Jilt,- were satisfied that the prisoners entered the house with intent to steal, they would • find' them guilty ; but he should feel it .his duty to submit to the rest'of the Judges, whether the pulling . down of the sash was a sufficient breaking to constitute the' ' crime of burglary. Verdict againsr both prisoners, Guilty—Death. -James Pitcher was indicted for stealing 170 yards of poplin, a large quantity of bombazines, cottons, i silks; and other articles, the property of C. L. Maltby and W. New, in their dwelling-hduse. . The prisoner, in January,lBl9, was taken into the service of Maltby and New , who are drapers in Holborn, as , porter, and continued in the employ rinenruntil January. last. During that time he con dticted himself apparently like an honest and faith ful servant, and gained the 'confidence of his em, ployers, from whom he experienced many acts of kindness. On the loth of. December he requested leave to go to his native place, near Reading, to see his father, who was very ill, Leave was given, and he w4s absent t wo f h p. He took a large think with hip: Oa the 18th of January, early iu the morning, he • • - - • • • went up to Mr. Maltlifi.rooe, and 1 ' stating tha t his ' , father was dead, requested leave to go to attend his funeral, Which was immediately granted. He de parted, and it was loon discovered that he had taken all his trunks with him. In a fews days Mr. Maltby • received a letter from the prisoner, informing him that he was detained by unexpected circumstances, and begging him to provide himself with another porter.- Very shortly after the receipt of this.letter, a Gentleman called upon. Mr. Maltby, and gave him such information as induced him to go to Theale, near Reading, where he discovered that, for a consider able time past, John Pitcher, a brother of the pri soner, had been in the habit of selling silk and dra pery goods to persons in the neighbourhood at low prices. This traffic he had carried on to such an ex tent, as to excite the attention of the Excise Officers, who conceived that the goods must have been smug gled ; and on examining some articles that had been sold, they found that they had not the usual Ex cise stamps; in consequence of which they went to John Pitcher's house, and there seized a large quantity of goods' of the description above-men tioned, which they lodged in the Town Hall.— The goods had not been long there before a letter was received by one of the Officers of Excise from the prisoner, enclosing an affidavit, sworn before an Alderman at Guildhall, London, in which he de dared that the goods seized (of which he enclosed a schedule or inventory) were his bona fide property, and that he had purchased them of a Mr. John S—. In the letter accompanying the affidavit the prisoner demanded the immediate restitution of the goods, and threatened the Officer with• an action in default of compliance. The whole of these goods Mr. Maltby identified as his property, and he caused the brother, who had been vending the goods, to be apprehended. The prisoner was soon afterwarctt apprehended in London, where it was discovered that he had been carrying on dealings nearly as extensive as at Theale. He had, it appeared, actually circulated bills amongst his friends, advertising goods at a cheap rate. The whole of these facts were most clearly esta blished in evidence, and the Jury found the prisoner Guilty —Death. Aged 21. ENTENSIVi ROBBERY. Yesterday, John Robinson, John Humphreys, and Anus Frearson, were indicted for stealing a large quantity of flour, the property of Mr. Stanbrough, miller, at Isleworth. Humphreys and Robinson had been several years in the service of the prosecutor, who placed the most unbounded confidence in them. In January last they were accidentally overheard saying to some persons with whom they were in con versation, " We are doing very well at Mr. Stan t brough's, for we are making at the least 1.:900 a-year by it." This was communicated to Mr.Stanbrough, who would not, at first, pay any attention to it, •but at length consented to have a watch kept upon them. On the 29th of January they were ordered to put 20 sacks of flour into the waggon, to be conveyed to Mr. Hawkes, a baker, at Kensington, which they did, placing them in the usual way, in an upright posi tion, with the mouths downwards. Mr. Stanbrough having sent them away upon some trifling errand, examined the wagon before it started, and found.in the front part of it, underneath; some tarpaulin and hay, two extra sacks of flour. Upon this, hepro ceeded with Mr. Gammon, the kligh Constable, to watch Robinson's conduct on the road. The latter went to Kensington, delivered the 20 sacks of flour, as directed, and then pulled out the two extra sacks, • and placed them in the middle of the waggon, still keeping them covered. When he had got some dis tance on his way homeward, he turned into a bye lane, where the prisoner Frearson was seen to join him, and throw into the waggon two empty sacks. They both got in and emptied the flour from the two hidden sacks into those which Frearson had brought. Frearson lived in a small house at .Brentford, and the waggon must pass his door on its way home.--L They stopped afterwards at a public-house, where, as they were drinking at the door, Frearson caught sight of Mr. Gammon, and immediately went through the house, and escaped,hy thp backdoor. Robinson was suffered to go hdeie, and when he got to the mill, he had the ingenuity to call out to Humphreys in Mr. Gammon's hearing--" here are two extra sacks put in by mistake; come and take them out." When asked how he came - to empty the flout into other sacks, be said, " Because his Master's had split open." He and Humphreys were taken into custody, and two days after the Officers apprehended Fie.ir son at his house, and found in his bed-room seven sacks of flour, .and a great quantity more in other parts of the premises. Frearson kept a small chand ler's shop, and did not profess to deal in flour. When being conveyed to prison, he said he expected to be taken, but he did not think he should come alone, for there were a few others whom he thought would have come with him. It was subsequently discovered, that several other persons were concerned with him, and were in the habit of meeting Robinson on the road, as he had done. This practice had been carried on for a great length of time, and Mr. Stanbrough stated, that he had been a sufferer to an immense amount. Before the•case went to the Jury, Mr. BRODER ICK, Counsel fer . the prisoners, submitted, that the felony (if any had been committed) was complete the mo ment the sacks were put into the waggon at Isle worth ; and. therefore, the prisoner Frearson could not be convicted as a principal. The COURT concurred in this opinion. Mr. ALLEY.-=Then we must indict him for the fe lonious receiving; and he will have fourteen years, instead of seven. Humphreys and Robinson were found Guilty ; and Frearsou was acquitted ; but was ordered to be de tained, to be tried for receiving the-flour, knowing it to have been stolen. He is sixty-four years of age, and paralytic. James Harrard, a respectable-looking young man, was indicted for embezzling lour pounds and.other monies, the property of Ann'Holloway, his mistress. The Jury found the prisoner--Guitty. ' Ralph Doughty, a young man, dressed in the first style of fashion, was indicted for stealing a bonnet, valued at El, the property of Mary Bunn. Mary Bunn deposed, that last Sunday fortnight, about ten at night, as she was passing through Thorn baugh•street, the prisoner cxnu up and snatched the bonnet from her head.—lt appearing that it was merely a drunken frolic, the prisoner was acquitted. After leaving the Bar, the- prisoner went into Court and paid the prosecutrix for her bonnet. POLICZ. A Cuttiotis itosilay.—Friday,- Mr. Let; a to* merchant, residing in Tavistock-street, had a gold watch and its appendages stolen from M o i r* chamber. Suspecting one of his servant. g i r i o. gave her into custody of an officer, and she nasty before the Magistrates at Bowdstreet Office, his p t iei: cipal cause of suspicion being this: th e g i r l , a dal or two before the watch was lost, asked leave 16 w i out; and on her return, she related to herf o g e : servints that the had been to a fortune-feler, A s (among many other curious matters relating to lcve. Scc.)sinformed her that several things had be en from her master's house, and that something e k e would be taken away, for which she would g et i re sad trouble. This was certainly a very slight groi of suspicion, but, at his particular request, th e 4 4 , gistrate committed the simple pill for farther t2t, mination ; and, in the meantime:Law:ills, dex r ibi„. the watch, were distributed. In consequence a t ; sr handbills, another prisoner was taken to llo w . atert Office yesterday, by George Donaldson, and Ar . proved to be Julia Cuchi Dabroit, a native of Fra nces who had been employed by the prosecutor to te at i l his daughter the French language ; and it was p roved that she sold the watch in question to a pawnb ro k er and silversmit4, in Piccadilly, for six guineas. Tbi t eayose of course exonerated the poor fortune -b o a t girl, and she was discharged ; Jclia each bi t , committed for further examination, under the i that some of the other things taken away f rom prosecutor's house may be ti aced to her. ■ The Rev.
