BOXING. Tuesday was a day of indescribable bustle on the Path Road, with the Election at Brentflird, and the tight between Martin anti Cabbage, from Bristol, for 100 guineas a side. Thu Commissary General totik his position early in the morning on Maidenhead Thicket ; but. before he commenced forming the ring, lie was awake it would not do, and the .caval vade, which had arrived there, remned towards London, to the disappointment of the Bristol fanciers, for whose accommodation the Thicket was named. A ring was formed at last at Farnham, a village near Salt Hill, 24 miles from London. Martin first twirled his shallow into the ring, billowed by his seconds, Oliver and Randall ; and Cabbage soon iiillowed, with Cribb and Clark, as his seconds. Martin was so indisposed with rheumatism within the lust week as to 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 way, of 76 rounds in two hours, took place, but which was made up by a gallant second one, between George Cooper and Hickman, the gas light .man ; but we proceed to the first battle. I. Martin hit his adversary o-mr the side of the head, which produced first blood. Cabbage missed his hit. and in a close Martin was thrown. 2. Martin hit his adversary ever the eye. and Cabbage made a slight return, and in another close both proved themselves novices at the weaving system, and Martin was again thrown , and from Ins bad condition he was not encettll to stay long. 3. Martin ...hit his adversary a left handed stomacher, a /a Randall, which produced an in:Wont:try grunt, and Cabbage, when close enough in, threw his blows away, and in a hugging match Cabbage was thrown. aid as it WAS seen he wasof but little use, betting was reduced to G to 4 upon him. 4. Martin missed his left handed blow. but gave Cabbage a rattler with the right on the chest. The round ended with a hugging match again at the ropes,and both went down. Of the 76 rounds fought, it will be only necessary to particu .latize those in which changes took place. Martin bad all the hitting his own way, and changed the odds in his fawns in the 7th round, Cabbage having been hit well, left and right, and one of his peepers queered ; but betting was very flat_, as it was ,doubly hazardous to back Martin ' s -condition, and his-adversary was a known game one. 16. Martin contrived to place one hit in every round until this. with the left hand, at the head or the mark. Ile buried his fist in Cabbage's body, to use a flash fighting phrase, which crim soned it well, and in this round, if there was a knock down, Martin gave it, but it was rather a push down from the ropes. Excepting being hit, as before stated, Cabbage had none the worst at the rope hugging, and Martin had shown much weak ness. but he fought at points, and his friends were not safe of his I coining again at any round alter the t7th, when he appeared mach exhausted, and fought disadvantageously until the 31st. in this round he gave his adversary a full facer with the left hand, and loosened his fiont railing with the second, and Cabbage rolled his jaws about as if masticating a tough steak. After a hugging match at the ropes, both went down. 41. Cabbages left eye was in darkness, and his features were much distorted; and 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 condition. and the rounds were of a hugging nature against the ropes, but Martin was chiefly down. 76. The fight ended here in favour of Martin, who bit 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 if lifeless. lie was Marls= the awl, and he bled freely from the right ear, but he zeceiveraL The scientific Cooper, who beat the formidable Molineaux in Scotland, fought Hickman, the gas man, for a purse of .50/. and, from Cooper's pugilistic acquirements, two to one was begging. The seconds were, Oliver and Gibbons for Cooper, and Shelton nod Randall for Hickman, and it was a most gallant fight of 14 rounds in 18 minutes. Bound 1. Cooper sparred low for hitting. and every moment it was expected that Gas would be smashed. He, however, led upon Cooper, and hit him heavily with the right hand through his guard upon the nose, which drew claret, and Gas closed and threw him without any mischief. 2. A very severe round, commenced by Gas. and hits were . exchanged until the blood flew about in all diicctions from both ; . Cooper returned with the right hand upon the houl before the rally. Cooper dropped his adsersary by a scientific and heavy hit upon the neck with the kit hand. 3. A desperate round also, and severe fighting, till both were covered with blond. Gas placed his right handed hit upon the haul after hitting open with the left, and he was floored in a rally.—Betting as at setting to. 4. Both shoved off upon the piping system, but Cooper was the weakest of the two, and he was thrown after ter-Living a smart hit on the head. 9 and 10. The men had partly recovered themselves, slid hit away in a manner which astonished; but, at the close of the 10th mind, Carper was hit five or six times, and dead lieut. The 12th round was all for Gas, but he was enrat tly hit in the !Rh, by superior science. but Cooper fell very weak. 14. Cooper was hit to all lints of the ring, and thrown, when Gas was declared the victor, to the disappointment or all the deep ones, as he disregarded hitting, and would not be denied.—Both were terribly beat. On Monday morning a serious accident had 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, fitr the purpose of attending a meeting of the freeholders of Middlesex, convened in the in terest of Mr. Whitbread, a person in a gig incauti ously drove I.is horse against that of Nil% flobbouse, by which means the shaft of the vehicle c:,we in contact with that gcu•leman's hg, vvhich was se vcrely I.urt at the time, so as to disable him from valliing,, but the injury is nut likeiy to Le attended with acriour. contocquctie4.3. TUE NAIIONAL REGISTM. -- • • -- - The clergyman of the parish in Hosslore in which the late unhappy disturbances took place, has, by his persuasive influence alone, accomplished what the She riff, the Hosshire Staff, and a powerful posse of gentle men and constables, were tillable to effect. " Had I been apprized," he says, in a letter to the editor of the Inverness Courier, " of what was to be done, I would have taken measures to prevent the necessity of the She riff or any armed force appearing among us at all ; but I knew it not till the eietiing before, and to go to my people at the head of an armed lorce, is what I would never do." The reverend gentleman convened them all (the tenants) at Colrain, on the Bth cm rent, and, after pointing out the matinees and Motility of such violence, and the destructive consequences that must inevitably ensue, he prevailed upon every man of them to go down to Arduay-inn, to receive -their summonse3 of re moving, which they did on the 54 th , w h en the Sor rel. officer met them from Many were pre vented by sickness from coining. The Sheriff's officer went to their houses and executed their sit u ttttttt nses, and returned to Aolgay, after experiencing the greatest hos pitality. This clergyman seems well entitled, afier this, to say, " There is no occasion for a body of 300 men, and 3 ft.:ld-pieces to come among us. I shall go round for the peace of the parish, and that no obstruc tion s!,all he given to the execution of the laws:'— While thus enforcing on his people the necessity of sob. mission to the laws, this worthy mioister of peace makes at the same time this feeling appeal on their behalf:— " Of all the lowan race," he sans, "there is not a more grateful or affectionate being than the Highlander, to the man who feels for bis 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. Munro will still avert, front the first days of his possession of the estate, so dreadful a judg ment as the expulsion ot . nearly 600 persons, able and willing to pay their rents, who are nut One penny in arrear, and who have hitherto paid a higher rent than the taxman who is to succeed them:' Of these 600 souls there are more than too leal-ridden and aged suns, whose locks have grown hoary on the soil, under' the lbstering kindness of their late excellent landlord, Sir Hector Munro, and whom no earthly power can remove till death come to their relief. AN INGENIOUS PIECE OF VaLtsv.—On Good Friday a robbery to the value of about 2001. was effected in the house of Mr. March, of Powell street, Goswell-street-road, in the most cool and ingenious manner. Mr. March had gone in the morning to . the house of Mr. Hick, of Cheaps ide, whose business he superintends. Some time after his wife left the house to visit a friend in the Mino ries, leaving the servant girl and a child at home At about four o'clock a man called at the house. and, in apparent alarm, told the servant girl that her mistress was suddenly and violently taken ill ; that her master had been sent for to Mr. Hick's, in Cheapside, and was at that moment attending his wife, and that she (the servant) must go off to the Minories without delay, and take the child with her. All those particulars convinced the girl, that the story was true. She locked up the house and followed the supposed orders, but upon going to the Minories she was surprised at seeing her mistress in perfect health, as well as at her expressing astonish ment at the visit. The fact was soon suspected.— Mr. Marsh ran oft to his house, but he arrived too late. The house was stripped of most of its valuable contents. A quantity of plate had been stolen, as well as children's dresses, which, as they were presents, were more valuable. Immediate infer matiou of the robbery was given at the Mansion house, where active measures were adopted for the discovery of the thieves. A person who resides in one of the adjoining houses saw two men leave the house between five and six in the evening. They walked out as if they had been employed by the inmates, and betrayed not the slightest confusion.— The house was entered evidently by means of a pick-lock key, and all the places where property could be supposed to have been placid had been broken open. 47.titIrtt0.
