VINTRY WARD. A T a num erous an d respecta bl e MEETING o f the friendsufMr. Sheriff WINCHESTER, held at the King's Head Queen -street, the 28th Dec., 1826, Mr. Deputy WIP:TBY in the Chair, It was resolved, That at a Wardmote held on the 2d of November last, and from thence Continued by Adjournment to the 4th day of the same month,- HENRY WINCHESTER, Esq. was elected Alderman o f this Ward, and finally returned as such to the Court of Alder men by th e Right Hon. the Lord Mayor. That 'Edward Archer Wilde, Esq. one of the unsuccessful Can d'idate, upon that occasion, has since petitioned the Court of Aldermen upon a point of Law, in consequence of an informality Permitted by the presiding Officer, and the Court of Aldermen has deemed it necessary, on that ground, to declare the' said Elec tion void. That a Precept will be issued by the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor, for a new Election, on TUESDAY, the 2d of JAN. NEXT. That this Meeting considers itself deeply pledged to support Air. Sheriff Winchester, who has so firmly resisted the various attempts which have been made to defeat him, but more particu larly for hie manly conduct in opposing a mere legal objection, 4 tid one which involves no principle by which it could be urged that the majenity he had obtained, could-or would be diminished by any new Election. That this Meeting will, by every means in its power, en deavour to place Mr. Sheriff Winchester again at the Head of the Poll, and for this purpose it calla upon his Friends to use their Jett exertions to procure as early an Attendance to Vote as possible. Thu Meeting does hope, that it cannot be accused of presump tion, in making this Appeal to its Brother Freemen, when it is considered that Mr. Sheriff Winchester obtained a Majority, first, by Show of Hands ; secondly, at the termination of the Poll ; and lastly, after a labourions Serntin' y, demanded by his Adversary.

Hors,!.-Guards, Dec. 27. His Royal Highness the Commander-in-Chief having submit ted to the King, that his Majesty may he pleased to take into his consideration the situation and claims of a very meritorious class of officers of the army,--the old Lieutenants,—who are unable to purchase promotion, and whose prospect of advancement may, in many instances, be still very remote; and desirous of giving effect to some arrangement by which these deserving individuals shall be rewarded or relieved, without entailing such charge on the public as should render the measure objectionable, his Majesty, has been graciously pleased to command—That the lieutenants ac tually serving on full pay in regiments of the line, whose com missions are dated in or previous to the year 1811, shall be pro moted, at their option, to the unattached rank of Captain, and placed on the whole rate of half•pay of that rank—viz.: ss. per diem ; and that they shall be replaced by lieutenants from the half-pay list, who are in receipt of 4s. per diem ; that the widows of the lieutenants so promoted shall be admitted to the pensions of captains' widows; that the officers so promoted shall be eligible for employment on full pay as captains, according to the means which actual vacancies arising from the death, augmentation. &c. may offer. That in order to extend the advantage to those who are seniors of their rank in the several regi ments, without depriving the►u of their better prospect of promotion, these, and these only, shall, in the event of com panies becoming vacant without purchase within two years from their acceptance of the promotion to the unattach ed rank, be appointed to them, from the half-pay, in prefer ence to the next senior lieutenant, who, in consequence of the former's acceptance of promotion under this arrangement, would have become the senior serving with the regiment. That in or der to offer greater facility to a captain on the old rate of half-pay to return to full pay, l►e shall be at liberty to do so, by paying a difference to the captain on full pay, who may be disposed to re tire on the lesser rate. The difference in such case to be fixed at 800/. instead of 5111., to make up for the difference between the old and the new rate of half-pay. That a further facility shall be afforded to old officers who have been promoted to the unat tached rank of captain on the old rate of half-pay, by declaring them eligible to be removed to the full-pay of vacancies by pur chase, where the candidates in regimental succession may have no claims to such promotion. The young lieutenant shall then have the option of purchasing the unattached company (on ac count of the officer selling the regimental company), provided such young candidate shall be senior for purchase in his own re giment, and shall have completed two years' effective regimental service as subaltern. That the young officer so promoted shall then pay the increased difference (800/.) to get on full pay, the cap tain with whom he exchanges taking his place on the old rate of half•pay. The lieutenants of and previous to 1811, actually serving on full-pay in regiments who may be desirous of availing themselves of the provisions of this arrangement, will communi cate the same through the commanding officers of their respective regiments, or depots, to the Commander-in-Chief's Military Se cretary.—By his Royal Highness the Commander-in• Chief's command. H. TORRENS, Adjutant-General. The celebrated scholar Muretus was taken ill upon the road as be was travelling from Paris to Lyons; and as his appearance was not much in his favour, he was carried to an hospital. Two physicians attended him, and his disease not being a very common one, they thought it right to try something new, and out of the usual road of practice, upon him. One of them, not knowing that their patient knew Latin, said in that language to the other, " We may surely venture to try an experi ment upon the body of so mean a man as our patient is." " Mean, Sir !" replied hluretus in Latin, to their astonishment, " can you pretend to call any man so, Sir, for whom the Saviour of the world did not think it beneath him to die?" Whitehall, Dec. 26.

WARD • FOR TWO HUNDRED POUNDS, and the CUAVI9NOSHII;'(I OF ENGLAND. ' •v [The following account of this Fight, which taok place at Royston Common, thirty-nine miles from London, appeared in a Seonnd Edition of yesterday's Surf ; we repeat it for the satisfac tion of those who only received the First:_) Ward is allowed to be the finest fighter in England. The rapidity of his movements give amazing advantage foe the display of his inimitably flue science. His figure is ad mirably calculated for exertion, his height being about live feet nine inches, well made, stout, and singularly aetive. He will jump backwards, if occasion require, to avoid a blow, with as much facility, and farther than many man can spring forward. His fights with Sampson, and his Rata great fi ghtwith Cannon, are well known. On taking the Champion's belt, many competitors sprung up in bra vado, but none in arms sufficiently hardy to dispute his well-earned honours. At length Peter Crawley got backed against him, but the betting still proved the high opiaien entertained of Ward's superior science and true game. Crawley is a giant compared to Ward, being upwards of six feet two inches, and he bears the reputation of being an excellent fighter, which, in addition to his size and strength, render him a formidable antagonist. Ward's decided advantage lies in the dexterous use of both hands, left and right are all one to Jun, who is celebrated for his masterpiece of one, two, three, and knock him down. In fact, so quick is his eye, and so rapid the movement of his hands, that he can often hit three times while another hits once. Betting has been all along from 6, 6, and 7to on Ward: Owing to the hard day's russ the Fancy had oa the day of the last fight, great precaution was taken on the present oeoutioa, to insure a spot of ground where interruption was not likely to take place, and in order to make things secure, and, if possible, to foil the endeavours of any Alp.,-,istrate to put a stop to the fight, two places were appointed, the one was Royston Common, about thirty-nine miles from tows, and the other at Elton Graage, the seat of Sir Peter Soames, which is situated about forty-oae mike from town, and four from Royston, whisk is most admirably si tooted for a fight, being surrounded by hills. The riot was made in the valley ; and never, perhaps, bad dm epeetators a better opportunity of witnessing the sight. At the different sporting houses in - town, the order was given for the fancy, to make for Wade's Mill, and to prepare for a heavy day's drag, numbers were on the road at an early hour yesterday, and towards the close of the day the load presented an animated scene, and London seemed busy in turning out from her smoky regions, Lords, gentlemen, tag, rag, and bobtail, Le. &s. forming when taken as a body, the life and soul of a prise-light ; the vehicles called into requisition were ludicrous in the extreme, but that did not seem any consideration, " What matter's the ve hicle, so long as the horse is a good one," appeared to be the ge neral cry ; however, very many of the Laney, to their sorrow, found that their " tits" were not so desirous of seeing the fight as the rider, and rested at the end of a few miles. Royston was the place of rendezvous for the tip top patrons of the ring, and Ward was there. He made the Red Lion Ina his head-quarters, and Crawley and his friends stopped at a road side house, about two miles from Royston. This morning the backers of Ward freely bet seven to four, as Crawley's friends had no objection to take 2 to 1. At a quarter past twelve o'clock, the order was given for mov ing to Royston Heath. Towards the evening considerable doubts were entertained as to whether or not the fight would take place, as it was Ike determi nation of the Fancy in case of the demise of his Royal highness die Duke of Yolk that no fight should take place. • Josh Hudson and Torn Oliver officiated for Ward ; Harry Harmer and Toni Beleh er for Crawley. All preliminaries being adjusted Jew Ward entered the ring at one o'clock ; he had a smile on his countenance, and seemed self confident of success ; 101. to 5/. wee offered, but no taken. Crawley shortly after entered the ring, leaning on the twin of Toro Belcher ; he appeared to be in most excellent condition, NO declared that he intended to do his best. Torn Beleber led Craw. ley below a canopy to stake his colours. Ward's, blue with white spots, was imined*tely placed over it. • Umpires and referees being chosen, the wen came to the swatch at twelve minutes past one o'clock. While the arra4ernents were making at Royston Heath, sm other ring was formed at Eaton Grange, where nunakera were c ollected, and thousands thus disappointed, certainly to the die, grace of those who had imposed on the fancy. Crawley won the toss for choice of ground. ..,( ( 7.-..\ t 1 e• ~ .0 • ani-Q A . . . , ---• ~--_- , _., : c.i. ,:.. : - , . ~,- , - ~„„ v ~•_.- qt...y, - • ,- - -.. ~ ' , F ' - i.,, , , , , - , zr, •,,,,,, . il7 ..-•., ..•-•,'-',:-'' • ' 4." , ek ' ',4 , -- tr , - , - ~ - 4 0m;.-. -. .

Ward backed to the corner of the ring, sparring- for a short time, when Ward hit out, and *aught Crawley on the eye, with a tremendous blow, whioit knooked him down. (Bravo, Jam.) 2.—Caieful sparring, Crawley cautious, Wart wade s hit at the body, stopped by Crawley. Three manta sparring. Crawley tried the left hand, a pause—Go along Jan, any darling-. Ward put in two blows on the bead and again knoaite4 ,Crurial down. This round took six minutes. S.—Crawley sparred for a short pause, and kept on die higle side of the ring. Ward made a heavy blow, and slipped down. 4. —Both were cautious. Ward put in a slight blow on the bread-basket, but Crawley retired to the ropes ; a olest, sad slashing fighting till in the terrific struggle Ward west down. s.—Give and take was the order of the day-- , a close and hard hitting. In the fall, Ward under. 6.-:-Another slashing round, in which Crawley's (leak boss was laid open—both down. 7.—Crawley came up, bleeding at the mouth and nose, with a pair of black eyes, one of which was partially closed, which Ward hit again. Both down. B.—The ring in great disorder—both men blowing sad much distressed. Crawley bleeding at the month ; a don---hard hit ting, and down. bleeding from the nose profusely ; neither of the men much hurt ; several heavy blows exchanged, Crawley against the ropes ; Crawley fell under. This was a moat desperate rotted. 10.—Both men fighting the same system. The ring was here broken in. Both men were much exhausted and faint. A dose, and down. 11.—Neither of the men were able to fight ; both equally brave ; they closed, and hung to each other till they fell. W.—Neither mild bit a blow—Crawley pushed Ward down and he could not come again to time. Crawley was then declared the victor. The fight lasted twenty-six minutes—and was !novely contested. he result of the battle disappointed Ward's friends much, and his admirers more. GRAND Fox CHASE AT MALPAS.-011 Friday last Sir Richard Puleston's hounds met at Iscoed Park, and after thawing blank a number of small coverts, crossed the Fen's moss to Bettisfield springs, where they immediately found, and-off went not fewer than three as fine foxes as ever were run, one of which was followed by seven couple of hounds with one of the whippers, in the direction of Iscoed. The body of the pack, after being for some time baffled by the different cross scents and the shouting and hallooing of crowds of foot people, at last got settled to it, and away they went for Bettisfield, the seat of Sir Thomas Hanmer, through the shrubberies and garden, across the park, and on to Hanmer village, when he tried a small cover, close to the Oakes; thence to Hanmer Hall, through the , park, and on to Newhall, where, be changed his course, and went direct for the Wyehes, which he with difficulty gained, the hounds close at his brush great part of the way. Here poor Reynard was obliged to use all his cunning, and tried all his old accustomed haunts, but alas I mould find no friendly shelter. Being soon obliged by his staunch pursuers once more to venture into the open country, and, like a brave fellow, gaining fresh cou rage in proportion to his knowledge of the danger, scorning the covert, he went off with renewed vigour, and, in grand style, to Malpas, where the hounds drove .him at their very best pace, and, being quite close upon him, he was obliged, faint and weak, to seek shelter in the house of a doctor. Being driven thence (probably for want of a fee), he tried a number of small gardens; and, still hard pressed, from one cottage door to another, he at last found admit tance into an old woman's kitchen, where he had no sooner sat down to breathe a bit, than the hounds came dash upon him, and, woe betide their cruelty, scarce gave him time to escape at the.front door, when seeing the church-yard near, he thought he should there find a sanctuary. In this he was right, as the himnds could makeihim oft no further. Whether he got into church, or might have been a spirit of some huntsman of the olden time come to try the mettle of hounds and men of these degenerate days, and went to his narrow house again, is not know r Cllronieke
