The great tight between Oliver and Shelton, who are cons sidered the two best men of the day im the present state of degenerated pugilistic talent, was to have taken place at Copthome yesterday, mute than thirty miles from London, but it dill not lake place. At this season of the year the dis tance was too great even for an ordinary essemblage, and, as it turned out, the old . fuirciers had the atria at them Non sked. instead of thousands met the disappointment. The fight had been formerly stopped at 1.4 field. seven miles nearer to L lon thou Cupthisrue, tint the ease upon that occasion, who having found out Isis mistake in preventing the currency Hying about Isis neighbourhood, was willing that the Conesissary should erect his standard there, and with the consent of she greet Contoutader be as■ to lake up his position in the most eligible spot, where an enemy slid not appear. This was done to save horse flesh. Coplllunie having been named, Shelton had gone there, and Oliver being at Byfield, the former was sent for, but his backers sticking to their art icles, erased that removal which should cause auy fatigue to their man. Thus sitnated, the amateurs who had enterprise sad fully enough to go the dis tance, were determined upon a tight, and but few of the millers being present, the haltstarved black (lieniti i r k), w h o fought Oliver at Epsous races lastlesr, was flitted agaiust Sultan, another black, the IN st nian of the they. Sutton bit him to death, to use the technieality, in a few minutes, within's giving hint half a chance, and any other comment is unnecessary, excepting that poor IStosilriek was much pitied that the ring turned round. The amid. urn returned full of disappointment and blue rain, with floored prude and sulky iris ing. On Friday se'nnight, that extensive and noble building in the Market-place, Nottingham, called Bromley-house, was taken possessiou of by four coinpatnes of the fifty-second regiment of foot, who marched into the 'owls for that purpose; two miter companies of the same regiment have plaice! Imes, added, and it is generally underetouel that noble mansion is henceforth to br devoted to military occu pation. Large quantities of ammuliniat have been lodged within its wall". and Nottingham may now be considered somewhat iii the light of a garrierni town. On Sunday Hight, the soldiers, both tic the barracks and at the garrison. were under orders to hold themselves in readiness as a moment's notice; on Monday morning. the Wowed troop of yeo manry cavalry assembled, while the flame troop mustered very strung at the Riding-schoul ; and the Homey troop proceeded to the Tretit-bridge, and were quartered at the publie-hooses on both rides of it, as though they were apprehensive of ten enemy loosing that way. The horses were ready saddled, acid were kept ready for service, along with the men. all the night. till Tuesday, when they were dismissed. Such was the alarm pro. duced by reports, and letters scut to individuals, that several gentlemen its the country were induced to shut up their houses and flee to other situations for safety. From the above preparations and the alarm which prevailed, it would appear that some. thing sellout' was apprehended at Nottingham from the Radicals at the beginning of last week ; but, with the exception of the bustle occasioned by these preparations, the town and neighbourhood have remained in a quiet state. Friday morning as Mr. GEORGE MILLS, at the Chemise, of Commerce, King-street, was about to open the house, he saw, under the spiral stairs leading to the merchant.' room, a boy about nine years of age, whom he recollected to have seen hiding iu the house the preceding evening, and to have then turned out. The little fellow wee seized and questioned :—his name was Lawrence Ryland; lived at Newgate, a street, not a primal ; his mo ther had put him there in the eventeg to steal what he could ; a fortnight before lie had passed a night there and stolen sane rope mats. which his mother cut up and sold for old ropes ; was in the habit of being sent by lets mother to pats the night uuder counters. chiefly ni public-houses, and slipping away with whatever pluuder he could pick up—no had hint, by the bye, for publicans aid shop keepers who, if they now leave money in the till, or neglect to examine under the counter, must feel self-reproach, if thus robbed; his father was 'head; Ins mother stole fowl.
