A battle, which, from the manhood displayed, will Band high on record, but which, onfortunately, led. to the death of one of the combatants, took place on Monday, five miles from Osfurd, in a meadow on the Berkshire side of the l'hames, between Clayton, the champion of that country, and Batts, both men of much power, for twenty guineas, amidst a muster of fifteen to twenty thousand amateurs, Clayton last beat Co: ; and Batts, jealous of hie prowess, chal lenged him. The men set to at two o'clock; with se conds limn' London. Batts weighed about fourteen stone, and Clayton thirteen-6 and 6t04 on Clayton. Round 1. combatants bit a round counter In commencing. Clayton afterwards placed a severe hit on the front of his adver- . tary's bead, which floored him, and drew blood. 2. A swan rally took place, and it was evident there was no advantage in science, fur neither poseesaed that restinite. They. went at hammering awey with round clumsy hit,, but Claytou'i agility gave hint the beat of the round; and, in a ctel of atftngth, be threw his ;dye:eery. High odds were now in vain offered on Clayton. S. A mischievous round, and some severe blows were ex. changed, without flinching, or attempting to break ground.— Clayton placed two blow, to one in proportion, and, although they were nut so heavy, yet they were placed, ra ther by accident than design, on the mode effective points, and one of bans' eyes was nearly sewed up; but the luxe was applied, and relief üb tairied.—Clayton continued to lead till the ninth round; and he not only bad the best of the fight.og, but in the falls he was al ways upp.nnott. 10. This was a were round, and Clayton was doubled, by shit In the side, with which be went down, squeamish. Batts kept to his work during his adversqy's indisposition, and led unto the llth round, whso they had a deiptaine trial for best, and, after•two minutes fighting, Batts was knocked down by a blow under the ear. 12, IS. These rouqds were fought upon an equality, and both Glen displayed much bottom. ['hey bit each othEr until they were rather more tired of hitting than of receiving. They went down at le.igth, Clay•on uppermost. 14. Thin round, from Llaytou's, loodons, spoiled him. He wss bit down,uh his limes in the round, and whilst his adver sary stood over 1d u , he leaped upon his legs, and in doing so,' Batts got his head under his hit arm, and made his head as frightful as has own. After tiring himself with hitting, be let loose of him to go down. _ _ 15. Batts had decidedly the best of the round, and there weee no symptoms of Clayton gettlag about—hie adverury worried him till the olvd round, without giving bon' a chance, and in the iced he gave him his death blow on the lrtt jugular.veln. Clay.. ton bad lost his guard, and the,bit which dud the mischief was accidental, and at menet leogtb. The deceased never spoke after he fell.. There were four zwedical . Gentlemea attended liiinathe too ment the accident happened, but 4 their elusions were fruitless. Yesterda- _ ly an Inquest was beld at the private mat. house of Mr. Warburton, Bedoal-Green, on the body of Joseph Deshayei, one *of the attendants. On Friday last the deceased went to a closet for some coals, and while in the act of filling the coal•skuttk, Mr. Owen Anderson, one of the patients, seized a case knife, and stabbed him in the back.—The Jury returned a verdict, that the deceased met his dads from a wound inflicted. by t h e said 011111 Aadersoll, while in a slaw of Oniony. : : LAW ISTELLIGENCE, COURT OF KING'S BENCH, APRIL 29. HIGH TREASON. Just as the Court was about to rise, the Foreman of the Grand Jury, accompanied by his Allow:, deli vered in their presentment, on which it was st4ted, that they found true bills against afrikor Thirtlewood, James Watton the elder, Janet.: 'Faun the younger, Thonbr Preston, an 3 John ifooper, for High Treason. The bill against John Keen: was not found. As 13011 as the names had been read, The ATTOIt• NEY.-GENERAL addressed the Court as follows :--In conseqbence of the bills of indictment now rvuened by the Grand Jury, it becomes my duty to move your Lordships, that the Sheriff of the county of Mid dlesex be directed to furnish Mt. Litciifield, as :Jo licitor for the prosecution, with a list of the proper number of persons capable of serving on,the Jury, that copies of that list may be delivered to each of the persons against whom Bills of Indictment have been found. The Court then made an order accordingly. Their Lori:hips then consulted together fora feet seconds, relative to the tirlse . of trial, after which Lord ELLENBOIIOIOH said, without pledging our selves not to alter our determination, at will do no harm that the Court should intimate that they have it in contemplation to fix the first Monday in the next term. Such motions for new trials as may be to be made may come on on the Friday aiid.Sstar lay pre vious, so that the business may be proceeded in on the third day a the term.—The Grand Jury then withdrew, and the Court adjourned. Lord COCHRAN& was in Court, which was consi derably crow tied. ADMIRALTY COURT, APRIL. 29. NEAPOLITAN PRIZE-!!ONLY• Dr. Lussuserross this morning !slaved the Court to grant a monition to have a question tried, whether the Grasshopper was entitled to a share of the PM thousand pounds greeted by a vote of the Houle of Commons, on the 18th June, 1816, to the captors of certain ships and stores taken from the 'Neapolitan Government by his Majesty's ships under the com• mand of Captain Campbell and another Officer, but since restored to the Government from which they bad been captured. The KING'S ADVOCATE, in behalf of the parties in terested, consented to this motion, which was accor dingly granted. The Court then proceeded to the case of the Ville de Varsovie (Lord Cochrane's Prize-money), when the Counsel was proceeding to read Lord Cochrane's affidavit, the limo's ADVOCATE objected to its ben received on the ground of his Lordship's conviction, for a fraud and conspiracy, on the '2lst June, 1814. Arguments were heard on both sides, and at half past two o'cbck the Court postponed its ju,dsment luntil a future day. Ma. ROGER O'Coswon.—Estract from the Cori Ad; ertiur : " Last 'l'oesdey, Roger O'Connor, Esq. was apprehended at Palace Anne, near Ban !on, and is now In custody in this city, on a charge of having been an accomplice in the robbery of the Gal way maliscoach, in the year 1512, when It was attacked at Cap isath Hill, County of Kildare, and robbed of a considerable sum in Bank post bills and a gold repeating watch, the property of Mr. Pearse, of Lcrughrea. It appears that the Magistrates ot. the Head Police Office, Dublin, having received information of Mr. O'Connor and his son Arthur O'Connor, having beep concerned am the above ropery, dispatched Mr. Robert Gilbert, a Peace Meer In their employ, with wallows for the apprehesslon of both those Gentlemen, and the warrants having bees duly backed by the Mayor of Cork, Mr. Gilbert proceeded in the first in stance to Fort Robert, in this county, where he arrested the son, who was confined by severe Woes* to hi, bed. being authorised by a starch-warrant, he Mode a search at Fort Robert, and found a pawnbroker's ticket lor a gold repeating watch, which Lad been pawned in this ally by the eon, under a fictitious name, which watch is now in Mr. G.'s possessions there is yet, however, no proof sat it. being the sante as that which was taken at the rob bery of the,Galway maihcoacb. Mr. G. then proceeded to Pa. lace Anne and arrested the father. On their arrival in this city, bail was tendered to the Mayor for Mr. O'Coonor's appearance ,to answer the charge, hut was refused on the ground of its being not legally bailable. A Magistrate of this county having gua ranteed.the appearance of Mr. Arthur O'Connor, when called on, and his Wit•Oi health not permitting his removal with safety, be was suffered to remain for the present at Fort Robert." • A man was committed, last week, to Launceston Jail, who confessed that he had stolen from a market van four fine turkies, which were afterwards served up to the Judges' table at the Assizes. Severzl persons have been apprehended at Market Harbdrough, on suspicion of having purchased a considerable quantity of lace of the poor manufac turers in the vicinity, and paid for it with forged notes of the Bank of. England. At the Glasgow Assizes; on Wednesday last, Jana M.Enurns, John ComseMon, and Af•Dowal Pete, were outlawed, for not appearing to take their trials for administering unlawful calls, same Assizes presented the singularity of a deaf and dumb woman appearing on the criminal calendar, under a charge of child murder, by throwing her infant into the Clyde in a tit of passion and intoxication. It was pleaded on behalf of the csilprit, that her unfortu nate situation rendered her an unfit object of tti..l, as she could not plead guilty or not guilty, nor hear her indictment. The Assize Court remanded her to pri son, and ordered the case to be brought before the High Court of Justiciary . at Edinburgh, where a so.. lemn argument will be held on the case. • The only other case wor:hy of notice which was tried at time Assizes, was that of R. Aird, who was found guilty of an assault, which for cebeity never had its parallel, in that part of the country at least. The defendant had been fined 10s. 6d. by a neighbouring Magistrate, for forcing. without paying toll, his may with his cart through a turnpike gate, kept by two old people, a PUS and his wife. The barbarous ruffian followed the poor couple home from the M s agiurate's, and when they cattle to a lonely place, he threw both head-long into a rivulet with the intention of drown- Mg thorn. Luckily for them the Water was not deep .encough, and they scrambled towards the bank, where their persecutor waited (or them with a monstrous cudgel, and again attem , pted their lives, by furiously , striking them with it on the head. He left both foi dead, but the halberts' was soon after able to lilt his wife's head out of the water, and was found by some passengers sitting on the bank, and half immersed in l•water, supporting her in a state of insensibility. Her skull was fractured, and die temporal artery cut through by a single blow. The buiband was also dreadfully cgs, and bruised. We are sorry to say, 'that as the law of Scotland now stands, the monster who perpetrated this outrage, can only be punished as for a common assault. • LONDON MARKITI, 4P,RIL 29.
