110. rNG. Tuesday was a day of indescribable bustle on the lath Road, with the Election at Brentford, and the tight between Martin and Cabbage, from Bristol, for 100 guineas a side. Tho Commissary General took his position early in the morning on Maidenhead ThickA ; but before he commenced forming the ring, he was awoke it would not do, and the caval cZ, which had arrived there, returned towards 1.0n , 10n, to the disappointment of the Bristol ftnci.:rs, for whose accamnuslation the Thicket was mood. A ring was formed at last at Farnham, a village near Salt Hill, '24 miles trash London, Martin first twirled his shallow into the ring, followed by his seconds, Oliver and Randall ; and Cabbage soon f,:lllweil, with Cribb and Clark, as bh; seconds. Martin was so indisposed with rheumatism within the last week as t,) be scarcely able to walk, and his bad condition was evident. Betting was 7to 4 on Cabbage, a Scroggins in make but not so handsome in person. A bad fight, all one wa),.of li rounds. in two hours, took place, but which was made up by n gallant second one, between George Cooper mid Hickman, the gas light man; but we proceed to the first battle. I. Martin hit his adversary over the side of the head, which prialucal first blood. Cabbage missed his hit, and in a close Martin was thrown. '2. Martin hit his adversary over the eye, and Cabbage made a slight return, and in anot!.cr close both proved themsclims novices nt the weaving system, and Martin was again thrown, and from his had condition he was not expected to stay long. 3. Martin hit his adversary a left handed stomacher, a /a Baudall, which produced an involuntary grunt, and Cabbage, wines close enougo in. threw his blows away, and in a hugging match Cabbage was thrown, and as it was seen he was of but little use, betting was reduced to G to 4 upon him. 4. Martin missed his left handed blow, hut gave Cabbage a rattier with the tight on the eilest. The round endal with a match again at the ropes, and both went down. Of Cie 16 rounds fought, it will b.: only necessary to particu. !vitae Mote iu which c.:anges took place. Martin had all the Luting his own way, and coanged the odds in hi, favour in the ';an round, Cabbage having Lien hit well, left and right, and one of his peepers queered; but betting was very flat, as it was douhiy hazardous to back Martin's condition, and Lis adversary was a known game one. Mattis contrived to place one bit in every round nail this, with the lett hand, at the head or the mark. lie buri.al his fist in Cabbage's body, to use a flash fighting phrase, which erim wined it well, and in this round, if there was a knock down, Ilartin gave it, but it was rather a push down from the ropes. • Etccpting being hit, as before stated, Cabbage bad nona the worst at the rope hugging, and Martin had shown much weak ness. but he tbaght at points, and his friends were not safe of his corning again at any roun d after the 2;th, when he appeared =inch exhausted. and fought disadvantageously until the 31st. Iu this roand he gave his adversary a 101 l facer with the left hand, and loosened his front railing with the second, and Cabbage rollal his jaws about as if maaicating a tough steak. After a huggini; mach at the ropes, both went down. 41. Cabbag,.'s kit eye was in darkness, and his features were much distorted; aad Martin had a turn at the other eye in this round, but he was thrown. Cabbage had no chance after this but by Martin's condi:ion. and the rounds w,re of a hugging nature against the rulics, but Martin was chilly down. 76. The fight ended here in favour of Martin, who hit him several times about the neck and head, and threw him, and twisted his neck so that he could not come again - he laid upon the ground nearly a quarter of an hour, as it lifeless. He %%a .bled from the arm, and he bled freely titom the right cat, lx.t he mineral. The scientific Cooper, who bent the formidable Molincaux in Scotland, fbught Hickman, the gas man, for a purse of .501. and, from Cooper's pugilistic acquirements, two to one was begg,ing The seconds were, Oliver and Gibbons fur Cooper, and Shelton and Randall for Hickman, and it was a most gallant light of 11. round,: in 18 miniths. Hound 1. Cooper sparred low for hitting, and every moment it was expected that Gas would be smashed. lle, however. led upon Cooper. and hit him heavily with the right hand through his guard _mon the nose, which drew claret, and Ga, closed and threw hint without any mischief. V. A ver:-• severe round, commenced by (;ar, and hits were exchanged antil the blood flew about in all directions front both ; 4 :ix,per retnrned with the right hand upon the head before the C<;,:er dr•Tretl .adversary by a scientific and heavy Lit upon t:ie Leek :tat the left hand. 5. A despeme round also, and severe f.entng, till both were covered with blood. Gas placed his right haialed ha upon the head after hitting open with the left, and he was floored in rally.—Betting as at scting to. .. both sie:weil old' upon the piping system. but Cooper war the weeikest of the two, and be nab thrown after receiving a smart Lit on the head. 9 and 10. The men had pertly recovered themselves, and hit away in a manner which astonished ; but, at the dose of the 10th sJittal, Cooper was kit live or six tinter, and dead beat. The 12th round was all for Gas, but he was slllintly bit in the 15th, by superior science. but Cooper fell very weak. 14. Cooper was hit to all parts of the ring. and thrown, when Si... was dec:ared the victor, to the:ditapkointment of all the deep ones, as he disregarded hitting, and would sot be deniol—Both were terribly beat. On 111cnday morning a serious accident bad nearly occurred to Mr. Hobhouse. As that gentle man and Sir Francis Burdett were alighting from their horses at the door of the Crown and Anchor Tavern, for the purpose of attending a meeting of the freeholders of Middlesex, convened in the in t.2.rest of Mr. Whitbread, a person in a gig inciarti cmsly drove his horse against that of Jr. Hubi.ouse, by which means the shaft of the vehicle came in contact with that gen:leman's leg, which was se verily hurt at the time, so as to disable him from walking, but the injury is not likely to be attended with serious consequences. ------- - At Chatmouth, Do set, the Hes•.

Tire clergyman of the parish in Itosshire in which the late unhappy disturbances took place, has, by his pets•tasive itilluenee alone, accomplished what toe She riff, the Russ!lire Stall, and a powerful posse of I:emir:- welt and ronstables, were unable to effect. " Had 1 been apprized," he says, in a letter to the editor of the Invernrs7 Ce?r?ier, " of what was to he done, I would hate taken measures to prevent the necessity of the She riff or any armed force ap i •cating among us at all ; hot I knew it not till the evening before, and to go to my people at the head of an armed force, is what I would never do." The reverend gentleman convened them all (the tenants) at Colrain, on the Bth cut rent, and, after pointing out the mallnees and inutility of such . violence, and the destructive consequences that must mevitaaly ensue, he prevailed upon every man of them to go . down to Arditay-inl, to receive their summonses of removing, which they did on the 14th, when the She riff's officer met them from Tain. Many were pre vented by sickness from coming. The Sheriff's officer went to their houses and executed their snot mouses, and returned to Aulgay. after experiencing the greatest hos pittlitr. This clergyman seems well entitled, after to say, "'There is no occasion for a body of 300 men, and 3 field-pieces to come among us. I shall go romid for the peace of the parish, and that no obstroc holt shall be given to the execution of the panne' IYhile thus enforcing on his people the necessity of sub mission to 0:e laws, this worthy minister of peace makes at the sante time this feeling Appeal on their behalf:— " Of all tile hinnatt race," he s. s, " there is not a more grateful or affectionate being than the Highlander, to the man who feels for his case, and sympathises with hint; but alas! few of the present day know his value— if they did, the system of extermination would not con tinue. I trust Mr. NI nitro will still avert, from the first days of his possession of the estate, to dreadful a judg ment as the expulsion of newly 600 persons, able and willing to pay their rents, who ate not one penny in arrcar, and who have hitherto paid a higher rent than the taxman who is to succeed them." Of these 600 souls there sic more than 100 LAI-ridden and aged per sons, whose locks have grown hoary on the soil, under the fostering kindness of their late excellent landlord, Sir Hector Munro, and whom Ito earthly power can venture till death conic to their relief. DUEL.—Another dispute has taken place at Gibraltar, bilween an American naval officer and an officer of the British army in that garrison. The parties were Lieut. Smith, of the 27th regiment, anl I,ieut. Dowling, of the navy. The case was reported by the former to the commander of the garrison, with a request that he might be tried by a Court Martial, he conceiving that his conduct had been perfectly correct. This request was refused. The American officer was br o ught to a Court Martial by order of hi; Commodore, and acquit ted, but it is understood that the Commodore, dkap prey preying of the acquittal, has transmitted the verdict to zs the President of the United States. A few , days after, the parties wet, when the American officer threw cot souse reflections On the testimony of Lieut. in conse. micirce of the acquittal. The result was, a message was sent by Lieut. to the American Officer, which the letter refused, in the first instance, limit Lieut. having insisted mom honourable satisfaction, a meeting took place on -the actual ground. Toe parties stood at nine distance, and by the fi rst tire of the American the Britislt officer was woottiled slightly in the le_; on toe second lire the hall of hits adversary's pistol grazed of e of his .fingers ; and, on the third shot, the ball passed through diis thigh, and brou 6 ht him to the The Inv:Hess here terminated. and Lieutenant 5--, was conveyed to the Military Hospital, where was.left in a fair way of recovery at the departure of tie Rochfor, which has brottlit home the account of ihis affair. Trtutt.s Fon Tn CASON.-h has been finally arranr:cd, that the whole of the prisoners connected with the Cato-street conspiracy shall be arraigned at the bar of the Ohl Bailey on Saturday, the 15th of this month.
