BOW-STREET.—(THIS DAY.) John and Mary Malloy, husband and wife, were charged before Mr. Henry with assaulting Mr. Snowden, the keeper of an eating-house in Maiden lane. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge left his residence at Kew, yesterday, for the Royal Mili tary College at Sandhurst. A deputation, including Messrs. John Savory, Thomas W. R. Morson, and James Bell, had an inter view with Sir George Grey, yesterday, at the Home office. Lord and Lady John Russell arrived at their resi dence in Chesham-place, yesterday, from Richmond Park. Dr. Nicholl had an interview yesterday with Sir George Grey. Dr. B. Hawkins had also an interview with the Right Hon. Baronet, at the Home-office. With regard to the depreciation of the "pound" as measured by gold, it is a matter of very considerable doubt among the members of the Anti-Gold-law League, whether the Ex chequer paper pound would depreciate at all. Though they think there can be no question that commodities in general would advance in price, so as to embrace that indirect taxation which they are burdened with in this country, yet, that gold would rise to any appreciable extent they consider it ven turesome to affirm. It is sufficient, in their estima tion, that gold would be permitted to rise, if ,neces sary, if withdrawn for exportatation. They cannot shut their eyes to the fact that under the system of cur rency they propose, forty or fifty millions of gold coin would be rendered unnecessary as legal tender, and thrown consequently upon the bullion market of the world ; and they are not sure but that this additional supply would have as great a tendency to keep gold down, as the issue of the Exchequer notes would have to raise it. Should it prove so, the most ardent bullionist .might still be gratifiedby obtaining 5 dwts. 3 grs. of gold for his paper pound, and it is within the limits of possibility that he might obtain more, for we are not at all sure that the paper pound might not frequently be at a premium when compared with 5 dwts. 3 grs. of gold of standard fineness. But whether this should prove to be the case or not, we hold it of no importance at all. We maintain that it is really of very little consequence, either to the payer or receiver of pounds, whether the "pound" will command less or more gold, otherwise than as that lesser or greater quantity of gold will again convert into less or more commodities. The real and true standard of the value of money is the " bread and cheese" standard before spoken of. This is clearly laid down by Adam Smith (corroborated by every men's common sense) in the following para graph from the "Wealth of Nations :"—" The revenue of a person to whom a guinea is paid, does not so much consist in the piece of gold, as in what he can get for it, or in what he can exchange it for. If it would exchange for nothing it would, like a bill upon a bankrupt, be of no more use than the most useless piece of paper." The real question at issue is, therefore, will the pounds that the Anti-Gold. law League proposes to be issued purchase less com modities than the present pounds ? Will there be a deterioration of their value in that respect, and will creditors be defrauded by being compelled to accept these pounds in lieu of those now circulating ? We reply, yes ! They will be of less value than the present pounds in their power of purchasing com modities; further, that strict and even-handed justice to all classes imperiously demands a " pound" of this description, and that Government cannot act honestly unless it causes such a system of money to be adopted; and lastly, that creditors will not be defrauded of a - single farthing, but merely be called upon to pay the just debts they themselves owe. We will not condescend to accept a concession of such money upon the ground of expediency or even charitable consideration for debtors—we demand it upon the principles of stern and impartial JUSTICE. To establish this point, let me put the circum stances of the country before you in the severest mathematical form, and let me remind you, what seems indeed to be entirely lost sight of in the discussion of this question, that the coun try is indebted to the extent of about one-fifth of its means, and that the diminution in the value of the pound in the system of currency recommended by the Anti-Gold-law League, is merely an expres sion of the indebtedness of the nation at large to the national creditor, and a means whereby the national creditor collects from each person that sum which is his fair proportion of the general liability of the country. The property of the country has been va riously estimated to amount in value to between three thousand and five thousand millions sterling. For the sake of argument let us assume it to be four thousand millions. The debt of the nation in round numbers is eight hundred millions, or just one-fifth of the total wealth. Now, who owes this sum? Is it owing at all, or not ? We concede that it is owing, though most wastefully, not to say fraudu country.

Now, how is this debt to be paid? We know that, from the terms of the contract, it is not obligatory on Government to call upon the individuals who owe it for the principal; but it is incumbent on the Government to collect the interest from them. This can only be done in one of two ways ; either by direct taxation, such as an income or property tax, or by indirect taxation on the commodities they vceornnsmumene, such as E xc i se an d C ustoms ' d u ti es .

Her husband struck the landlord and a waiteress several times, PRINCE OF WALES'S BIRTHDAY WINDSOR, TUESDAY EVENING.—The sixth anni versary of the birthday of his Royal Highness was celebrated at Court to-day with extraordinary splen dour. The weather was most brilliant—more like Midsummer than November—and as the sun rose upon the old ramparts of the Castle, a splendid new royal standard was run up to the summit of the flag staff on the keep, and floated against a sky as blue as those of Italy; the bells both of church and Castle at the same moment ringing out merrily, and crowds of well-dressed persons flocked from all parts to station themselves against the iron separating the Home Park from the Castle-hills. Shortly afterwards the Grenadier Guards, under the command of Lieu tenant-Colonel Craufurd, and with their magnificent band, entered the Home Park by the south entrance opposite to the Long-walk, and marching up the hill towards the grand entrance between the York and Lancaster towers, they suddenly deployed to the right, and marching under the so f uth- terrace they took up ground on the lawn in front Park, at c uu t a h r e d eastern or garden terrace.

LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY.—We greatly regret to an nounce the occurrence of a fatal accident yesterday morning, on the London and North-Western line of railway. The scene of the accident was close to the Winsford station, within about four miles of Hartford, and between Warrington and Crewe. The facts, as near as we could ascertain them from the guard of a down train that passed shortly after the occurrence, are as follows : A SIGN or VIE TIMES. -- At the Ins o l vent Debtors' Court, Dublin, on Saturday, there were no l ess than 101 cases set down on the list for hearing; amongst the number were nine attorneys, , one barrister, one l aw student, and one physician.—lreenzan'sJournal. HARWICH, Nov. 9.—John Pat trick, Esq., was elected mayor, and Alderman Stevens re-elected alder man. Captain Dean was also elected alderman in the room of Alderman Johnson, whose term of office (six years) bad expired. (From the London New Price Current of Nov. 9.) SUGAR.—To day there was much activity in the Raw Sugar market, exporters as well as the home dealers manifesting a strong desire to do busines, a n d a further advance in the value of every kind took place. There was but a moderate quantity on offer. All kinds of West India Muscovado were in extensive de mand for both the scale and refining purposes ; the rates obtained in the private market exhibited an advance on those of Friday of 6d to is per cwt. The total pur chases amounted to 1,200 hhds and tierces, including the public sales, viz. 235 hhds of Barbadoes, which went with spirit at a rise on the quotations of Tuesday last. REFINED.—To-day many purchases were made in refined goods by the home trade, and prices further advanced—Standard lumps at 53s 6d to 545, and brown grocery 53s per cwt; indeed, some of the refiners refuse to sell upon these terms. Bonded crushed is wanted, and it is difficult to purchase at 30s per cwt. EAST INDIA.—To- day there was iso public sale of East India sugar. Of Bengal several parcels were dis posed of by private treaty, and at slightly enhanced rates. Madras was sought after, and of the damp kinds several parcels were disposed of at 29s to 345. The tendency of prices is upwards, and the supply is on the decrease. A new six -wheeled engine, the construction of which was somewhat peculiar, and which, during some late trials, had attained an enormously high rate of speed, was coming down the line to work from the Liverpool station. To it was attached, in addition to a merchandise train, a few empty waggons. On the main line of rail, at Winsford, there is a curve so acute that it is stated that an engine might probably not be able to see any impediment should it be placed near the off line or siding, which it appears runs from the main-line to some collieries in the vicinity. A train, propelled by an engine belonging to some private in dividual or company, was passing from the side into the down line, when at the same moment the new engine, the driving wheels of which are eight feat six inches in diameter, came down the road, and before the breaks could be put on smashed into the coal waggons with a force so terrific that a portion of the merchandise train fol lowing was, from the force of the concussion, thrown completely over the enormous engine ; the driver was killed upon the spot, and a portion of his head was afterwards found in his cap. The carriages were thrown with great force over the whole line, and some estimation of the collision may be formed from the fact that one carriage was thrown behind a hedge u thankful at the top of an embankment. Th e t ra i ns wh i c h came up afterwards were detained f or some t i me. The breaksman, it is said, jumped off th e tra i n, and was case a thus s w preserved. oul it was not a passenger train, as the be t that the loss of life i n that e d have beemn st, however, la m en ta ble. No doubt directors, with their usual promptitude, wi •ll cause due inquiry to be made in the circumstances. HALF-PAST ELEVEN, P.M.—W e h ave just learned, from a party who has visited the scene of the dis aster, that the railway company's engine was thrown directly across the two lines ; the tender and all the following carriages, from the velocity they had at tained, ran directly over it, and thus the engineer met his death—the stoker, and not the breaksman, saved himself by jumping, off. The latter is so seriously injured, that when interrogated as to the cause, he could only state that they conceived they had, by the breaks, sufficient command over the train (which, he says, was not go ing over six mile s p er h our a t the time of the collision) but unfortunately they could _ before the lamentable occur not arrest its progr ess rence had taken place. MAtrumus.—This afternoon Mauritius Sugar was in excellent request, and the two parcels offered at public sale, amounting to 8,337 bags, were all sold with spirit, at an advance on former rates of 6d to is per cwt. FOREIGN.—To-day there was no public sale of Foreign Sugar, but privately purchases to a fair extent were made, and the rates paid were rather above those that existed previously. COFFEE.—This afternoon Mocha Coffee met with littlo attention, and 77 bales 125 half bales at public sale, were only in part sold at rather lower rates, good yellow at 58s to 58s 6d, middling and good brownish 56s to .7)75 6d, yellow long berry 70s, peas 625. Planta tion Ceylon was in excellent request, and a public sale of 1,756 bags 34 casks went off r 4 adily is to 2 s a bove former quotations. Native is warted and 485 bags at auction sold at 6d per cwt advance. Privately some parcels of good ordinary wer e sold at 33s to 33s 6d per cwt. RICE.—To -day a large amount of business was con cluded in East India Rice by private treaty and a further advance in prices took places—low white Bengal sell ing at 1 2 s to 13 s , mid 13s 6d to 14s, good and fine 14s 6d to 16s, cargo 9s 6d to lis ; Madras pinky white 11s 6d to 12s. Pearl Barley lOs 6d to 12s per cwt. None was offered at public sale. TEA.—The arrivals have been of little moment since this day week, but duty was paid on the large quantity of 499,716 lbs during that time. Public sales amount ing to 12,000 pkgs are declared. There is a large quan tity of all kinds of Tea on offer by private treaty, and merc h a nts are desirous to sell, notwithstanding the low many continue n t n h yt np ua rPeacrect loesl parcels recede, ddbe been fetchedeansssa dothl4dols3od proof,de o.ri t sn o gsfiaBnr3td toe rates that exist.

"On the evening of the 4th instant," says a letter from Leipsic, " the musical world suffered a deplorable loss by the death of Joseph Mendelssohn Bartholdy. An inflammation of the brain baffled the skill of the first physicians, and carried him off in the vigour of manhood. All Leipsic shed tears at the loss of a man who was universally honoured, loved, and respected. FRUIT.—The supply of Valentia Raisins is on the increase, and there are sellers upon further reduced terms, yet the trade operate with caution. The stock of Currants has been further increased, and the market is in a quiet state. Turkey Figs of fi ne qua li ty are much in demand, but inferior and out of condition, of which there is an abundant supply, are dull of sale, and offered at low rates. The value, according to quality, is 37s to 80s per cwt. There is an impression that Fruit will be cheaper, as supplies will be abundant this lessen. MOLASSES.—West India are net much quired, and all kinds can he obtained upon rather lowe. C 4 'arms. Since this day week the sales have been only 2c to casks--- Mauritius at 16s ; St. Kitts 16s 6d ; Antigua good 185, and Cuba low 15s per cwt. The stock is testi y double of what it was in the past year, but the deliv cries are greater. SPICES.—Brown Nutmegs have been in excellent re quest at full rates; fine kinds brought 2d per lb t tdvance: at auction 61 chts 5 bxs and 9 bags sold. M. ace is in larger supply, and a decline in the value of 2 d per lb has taken place; but 42 chests Penang At pub lie sale , all found buyers. Cloves are little require d, and prices tend d ownwar d s : o f 66 chests Penang offered at auction a part only sold. For .1 'imento a good demand has been experienced, )34 ; in ,f!on sequence of the supply having been larger', ti slight decline in the value took place: at auction 680 b 3 gs were all sold. Black Pepper is not to be obtained at any fur ther reduction in prices, but exporters and' the home trade operate with caution: at auction 757 bags of Telli cherry were sold. White sells more freely, at id at auc tion 121 cases were disposed of at 7 1 i-d to 74d for fine Tellicherry, being the full value. The supply is very small of Cassia Lignea, and buyers aro compelled to pay further advanc e d ra t es . F or Ginger thereg is only a limited demand. COCIIINEAL.—This afternoon 219 bags Honduras at public sale were all sold, the better kinds at full rates, but ordinary went Id to 2d cheaper : low to fine silvers sold at 4s to 4s 10d, good to fine black 5s 101.1 to 6s 2d, very ordinary 53. Of Guatemala Indigo, 18 serons went at is 3d to Is 8d for very ordinary. TALLOW.—In the value of Russian on the spot, a slight improvement has taken place, and a stronger desire is shown otk the part of the town and country trade to operate. A good demand has prevailed, and 44s 31 to 453 are the rates paid for P. Y. Candle, at which holders are firm. For delivery several contracts have been entered into at 44 s t o 44 s 3d _ _ up to the end of the year, and at 45s to 43s 6d for spring months. At auction 50 casks old went at 43s to 43s 3d. Home made has been largely dealt in, but at 45s 6d t o . . 46s nett cash there is a desire to sell, as the supply is good. In the value of other kinds of Tallow there is little variation to notice, but the demand is more active, and the parcels offered at public sale were nearly a] sold. OILS.—To-day Linseed Oil was less in demand, and a fall in prices took place, sales on the spot being made at 23s 6d to 23s 9d per cwt. At public sale 170 casks of Palm sold at 29s to 29s 6d per cwt. THE STABBING CASE AT THROIVLEY. Edward Spillett, the man charg e d w ith s t a bbi ng Richard Cox, at Throwley, near Faversham, on Wed nesday last, from the effects of which he died on Friday morning, was examined before the Rev. Dr. Poore (Chairman of the Division of Upper Scray), Mr. Surman, Mr. Hilton, General Gosselin, and Mr. N. J. Knatchbull, at the Ship Inn, Faversham, on Monday last, when the following evidence was ad duced : Daniel Rook, of Throwley, labourer, examined—. On 'Wednesday evening last I was at the Windmill public-house, Throwley, in company with Richard Cox (the deceased), Edward Spillett, Charles Clinch, and others, between eight and nine o'clock in the evening. Spillett and Clinch left the house, and went out on the green, just in front of the house, to fight. They had had a few words indoors. I and Cox and several others went out at the same time to see them fight. They fought about ten minutes or a quarter of an hour, and Clinch then gave in. Cox acted as second to Clinch for the last round or two. As soon as Clinch had given in, Cox said he would fight " e're a Spillet there was there with one hand ;" and then Cox and Spillett went at it directly. Cox hit Spillett first, and Spillett re turned it. Spillett then went down, and Cox on the top of him. They got up and fought again, and went down again, and Cox was on Spillett again. I went up and said to Cox, " Come, Dick, get up ;" and he said, " I can't, he holds me ;" and I pulled him partly up, and he got up, and went towards the public house. I think I was the first person who went up to Cox after they fell ; it was very dark. Cox and Spillett were both " fresh." There were between twenty and thirty persons round whilst Cox and Spillett were fighting; but none was near enough to touch Cox but Spillett. George Epps, of Throwley, labourer, examined—l was present when Spillett and Clinch fought on the evening of Wednesday last on Throwley-green. After Clinch gave in, I heard Cox offer to fight any of the Spilletts with one hand. I then saw Cox go up and strike Spillett, and Spillett struck him again, and then they joined, and Spillett fell and Cox on him; they got up, and I went up to Spillett and told him to put on his clothes and go home, and he said, " No, his heart, if he comes here again I'll kill him." Cox came at him again, and Spillett fell down again, and Cox on the top of him, and Rook came up and pulled him off. John Stevens, of Faversham, labourer, examined. —I was at the Windmill public-house on Wednesday evening last, the 3d of November, and went out on the green just after Clinch and Spillett had done fighting. I heard Cox say he would fight any of th(t. Spilletts on the ground with one hand. Cox and Spillett had a round, I believe ; but I was behind, and did not see it. I then saw Cox and Spillett have another round, and Spillett went down, and Cox on him. I got through the crowd, and went up and took hold of Cox by the right arm to help him up, and he said, " I am stabbed, Spillett is the man who done it, and no one else," and he asked me to let him lie. When I got through the crowd up to Cox he was on the ground, but I did not then see Spillett, and just after Filmer came up. I assisted Filmer in getting Cox into the house; we undressed him, and on examining him found several wounds, one in the small of the back, to which I held a handkerchief to stop the blood, and another in his belly, from which his entrails were hanging out. Cox asked to see Spillett, that he might forgive him, and said that he was the man who had done it, and no one else. Julius Gaborian Shepherd, of Faversham, clerk to the magistrates, exami ne d—O n Thursday last I at tended, in company witn Mr. Jarman, one of the county magistrates, at the Windmill public-house, Throwley, for the purpose of taking the statement of Richard Cox, who I understood was dying from wounds received by him on the previous evening. I produce a written declaration and statement made by him, he being fully aware of his situation, and that he was then in a dying state. After the examina tion was taken and signed, it was ascertained that Spillett was in the house, and he was then brought up before Cox, in the presence of Mr. Jarman and myself; and the examination so taken was then read over to Cox in the presence of Spillett, and he again stated that the whole was quite true and correct, and that he felt sure he could not live long. The statement was then put in, which was to the effect as detailed by previous witnesses, and that when on the ground with Spillett he felt him stab him. George Mundy, of Charing, surgeon, examined—l was sent for on Wednesday evening last at 9 o'clock, to attend at Throwley. I went and found Richard Cox at the Windmill public-house, he was in a com plete state of collapse from haemorrhage occasioned by loss of blood from wounds he had received in dif ferent parts of the body. I examined him, and found one in the abdomen, another on the right side just below the short ribs, and four others at different parts. The one in the abdomen was about an inch and a half in length, and from it the small bowels had pro truded ; the parts were inflated and inflamed in con sequence of the smallness of the aperture of the wound. The wound on the right side was rather more than an inch wide, and, as I supposed, had penetrated nearly four inches. I have since dis cavered from a post mortem examination of the body, that the liver had been wounded through the aper ture or wound on the right. I feel sure that Cox's death was occasioned by the wounds he had so re ceived. The wounds were inflicted by an instrument similar to the knife now produced (a knife found upon the prisoner Spillett when taken into custody). They were inflicted by a single-edged instrument. I saw Cox about ten minutes after Mr. Jarman and Mr. Shepherd had left him on Thursday, and I then told him that from the nature of the wounds it was quite impossible he could live, and asked him if he could tell me who inflicted those wounds, and he said it was Edward Spillett. Several other witnesses, who were present at the fight, were called and examined, but their testimony was similar to that of the former witnesses. At the conclusion of the examination the Rev. Dr. Poore told the prisoner he would stand committed to Maidstone Assizes, to take his trial for the wilful murder of Richard Cox. The prisoner is a young man, having a wife and two children, and was much affected during the examination. MANCHESTER.—SIIOCKING DEATH FROM TIIE BURSTING OF A CANNON.—On Saturday last Mr. W. S. Butter, coroner, held an inquest at Barnes-green, Blackley, two miles from Manchester, on the body of a young man nineteen years of age, named John 'quay, blacksmith. On Friday evening last, Gunpowder -plot day, the deceased and a number of other young men had a large bonfire ; the unfortunate man had made a small cannon out of an old gas - pipe, and ch arge d i t w i th three ounces of powder, wet paper, rags, and grass, and on discharging the cannon it burst ; one portion entered the young man's head, and killed him on the spot. A verdict of " Accidental death" was returned. He was the son of a respectable person in Ireland.—Liverpool Mercury.

L EGI IORN.—We have received intelligence of the arrival of Ibrahim Pacha at Leghorn, on board a French frigate. Ho is accompanied by a suite of fourteen persons, and intends taking up his winter quarters at Pisa. SUSPECTED POISONING TIVERTON, MONDAY.—The magistrates have , been again occupied a considerable time h.! investigating the supposed murder of Richard Pis her, a farm labourer, at the village of Morchard, a few rail es dis tant. Two other persons, Thomas Leach and Mary hHodge, sister-in-law of the unfortumate del . - :eased, ealedeen appreh en d ed on suspicion or beim con- yin apprehended his death, and, with the -widow, Ann Fisher, have been committed to the county gaol for trial at the ensuing assizes. It was ascertained beyond all doubt that he died from the efli , cts of arsenic. He was 71 years of age, and his wife 32, a•nd at the tim e o f his death they had not been mar ries three months. It may be mentioned, that she had been married previously, and her husband, John Lee, died as late as Febru ar y or March last. The deceased rented a small piece o f l and in the above_ named village, and occ:cts;ionally w or k ed for a Miss Partridge, in the neighbO,athood. It wou l d appear that they li ve d com f orta bl y togeth er unt i l the 25th of August, when s h e l e f t h er house, tat. i ng w i th her some papers of importance ack . an account o f th e amount of wages due to him iyalm Miss Partridge, V- or 61. The latter she endeavour f'd to obtain, say ing that her husband was:ill and wb:ntei the cash, but Miss Partridge having been cautioned' :not to give it to her, she failed in getting it. As subse quentlyamertained, he had quarrelled with' her about a youn g xuan name d Thomas Leach. He susp, acted that a certain intimacy existed between them, and found fault with her for allowing him to kiss her. Notwithstandin g this ill-feeling, deceased eux* , yed Leach on the 26th to reap, and in the evening Ise was permitted to sup in the house with the other la bourers By this period the wife had returned: home, and she joined the party. The deceased probab7l: y from a desire not to continue in their company, ret:i red to bed at an early hour, and they kept it up until be aween one and two o'clock in the morning, the wife c..; iusing Leach to be seen home in a cart. The poor d man again complained of his wife sitting up so late with the party in question, and on the morning of the 27th, after breakfast, he complained of being unwell. He went to bed and remained in a bad state all day. At four o'clock on the next morning (the 28th) the wife called her sister, Mary Hodge, up to attend tl ie de ceased, as he was seized with a violent retching; , such was their statement before the coroner and magis ti ate. Upon Hodge arriving, the wife begged her to I ook after him, as she was going to Woodford f . )1 • a doctor, adding that she had made some tea in a h a If pint cup, which she was to give him if he was thirs Cy. He died at half-past six o'clock. Mr. Haley, s surgeon who was called upon to visit the poor ms tn, did not see him till eleven o'clock, when he was dead. He was told that the decease d had died at half-past six o'clock, but, frog az the condition of the body, he thought that life had been extinct more than eight or nine hours... The post mortem examination of the body, and the, analysation of the contents of the stomach, detectecE the presence of arsenic sufficient to produce death. It. was also shown by a Mr. Wood, druggist, of Tiver-. ton, that she called at his shop, accompanied by as woman, about th e fi rst T uesday in August, and pro cured half an ounce of white arsenic, to destroy rat::. These facts induced the magistrates to commit the widow for trial on a charge of having administered the poison to the deceased. The police then sifted other suspicious facts, which told considerably against the sister-in-law, Mary Hodge, and Leach. Their apprehension was determined on, and, on being exa-. mined before the magistrate, they, as previously an nounced, sent them also for trial at the assizes, to be holden in March next.

A-SIDE,— These pugilistic aspirants, whose respective weights were limited to 9st 61b, decided, yesterday, their claims to the battle money and the honours of vie. tory. The venue was laid in county Surrey, and on Woking-common issue was joined. Both the lads are highly esteemed as "glovers," and Cooper, whose calling is that of a baker, was considered well qua lified to take the conceit out of any commoner who might 'Ask such a favour at his hands. his game, strength, youth, and size, at his restricted weight, 9st 61b, are undeniable. To this he adds a respect able amount of wrestling capabilities. These, with his stamina, were justly considered as strong points in his favour. On the other hand, Hayes, who is but little known, save in his own immediate London circle, which, we believe, principally to lie in the hundreds of Drury and the parts adjacent, had already earned the good opinion of those who witnessed his battle with Finn, some two months since, when, un prepared, and contending against superior weight and strength, he achieved a conquest, by caution, clever ness, perseverance, and presence of mind, under dif ficulties. At a few minutes after eleven, the men were within the roped enclosure, skilfully arranged by the veteran commissary, old Tom Oliver, and, their toilette completed, stood up. Cooper, who i s a model of a fine young fellow, soon opened the ball by running, rather than walking., into his man; Hayes artistically timed him and dropped him a slight taste of his quality with his left; Cooper, nothing daunted, bored on, and Hayes was thrown in the close. From the second to the eighth round the like game was played; Cooper, re solute as a lion, and strong as a bull, making all fighting, but receiving far more portrait painting than he could accomplish in return. In the ninth round Hayes caught Cooper heavily on the left eye, the latter rushing in wildly, missed his right at the body, and encountering a ditto repeated, scrambled to a close, proving his strength by throwing Hayes heavily. The rounds from thenceforth to the 30th, were mere counterparts of what we have briefly de scribed; Cooper's rush at each onset becoming more wild, while the precision of Hayes remained unal tered. Nevertheless, there was cause for doubt, in asmuch as Hayes, about this period, appeared to fall off weak, doubtless from the hustling of Cooper, who gamely timed his man, though each successive round with less effect. In the 37th round Hayes evidently improved, as he, for the first time, turned Cooper in the close. Thenceforward the question of victory was a foregone conclusion. Cooper, despite the per suasion of hie friends, came up till the 44th round, when his seconds, seeing that his last chance was gone either at in or out-fighting, threw up the sponge in token of defeat, the battle having lasted precisely 65 minutes, of active hard te filogshing man,ting. llarin and ma Hannan young Sambo seconded the donald and Turner, Hayes. PEDESTRIANISM. DIAMOND AND HARRISON, FOR TEN POUNDS A SinE.—Frank Diamond, of Somers Town, and John Harrison, of Hounslow, walked their match of six miles on Monday, in the vicinity of the Marquis of Granby, at Hounslow, for the above-named sum. The betting on the ground was 5 and 6 to 4 en Diamond, and about half-past three the youths started at a rattling pace. Before they bad cleared a quarter of a mile Harrison was called on by the umpires as walking unfairly, and had to moderate his speed to a fair toe and heel ; nevertheless he, after two miles, led the favourite by something like 80 yards. In the third and fourth miles Diamond had lost his brilliancy, and was certainly looking dull, while Harrison, going ahead, left the thing in no manner of doubt, and walked away with the stake and the honour by his own distance. DAY AND ST;PLETON, FOR TIVENTY•FIVE POUND 4 A SlDE.—This race, which some of those who are es pecially versant in pedestrianism b oo k e d as " a gm thing,' " a perfect certainty," was decided on Monday, at Harlington Corner, over 130 yards of Great Western turnpike roa d . D ay was backed at 7 to 4 and 2 to 1, rather than not have a trifle t% " pay expenses." After a few false starts the me) bounded off, and ran pretty level for about fort\ yards, when Stapleton left his man, was never header) and won by three yards, without distress. INWOOD AND THE SCOTCH LADDIE.—Robert In wood, of Tooting, ran his match of 150 yards, fc 10 sous. aside, on Wandsworth-common, on Mon day. It was an easy affair ;he bowled over th " cannie Scot," of whom rumour had reported s. much, by four yards, and, to our thinking, cool. have multiplied the distance by two or three. DEATH or DR. DILLON.—This rev. gentlema died on Monday morning at one o'clock, in the cotta attached to the Reformed English Chapel, White's-rov Spitalfields, of which he was the clergyman. He ha been indisposed for a considerable period, and had som time back ruptured a blood-vessel. In consequence ( domestic misfortunes, which have more than once a' tracted considerable public attention, the deceased fe some time was very much depressed in his mind. B had removed to Islington to enjoy a purer atmosphe: than that of Spitalfields, but unfortunately without sec cess. On Saturday he returned to White's-row, whe: he expired. The deceased bad attained—whether just; or unjustly, it is needless to say—an unenviable not, riety; but his friends and neighbours say that he w% more sinned against than sinning.
