PUGILISM.

IKEY PIG AND ISAAC WOOD.

The match between these heroes, They Pig, the
Jew, and beige Wood, the Waterman, whicn was
prevented from taking place at Wood's Green mid
Finchley. last Thursday, was decided on Monday
afterrfoon upon Highgate Common. The innocent
diversion of bull.baiting was given nut as the order
of the day, and this rase de :01 'PVC had the
desired effed, and the pugilistic sport suffered
no interruption. Although /key I'ig gave no
peat promise 'in his first battle with Ctih, he
is a powerful cnan, of some science. and has heen
considered as at the head of the second-rate pe:-.iiists.
Wood was but little known ; yet, before the setting-
to. the odds were 5 and 6t04 in his favour. 0.7
Pig was two inches taller than his antagonist, two
stone heavier, and of much greater length of arm.
The contest lasted about forty minutes. doting
the early part of which the odds varied rather in fa-
vour of IltroPig, who generally made play, and hore
down his man, as Weed had not sufficient strength to
stay long in a tally. It was expeft.:d in every round,
that when the Jew was hit, he would show the
white feather, and Wood, though often off his legs,
was the favourite. From the middle to the end of
the batik, there was some good fighting, at far as
standing up to each other, and exchanging hits
may be so termed. In these rallies, they became
much disfigured about the head, and lkeo Pig at
last fell, and remained in a sleeping fit, from which
be could not be roused, until it became too late to
set-to again, and he was emitted out. Atter such a
defeat by an inferior man, Theo Pig never can pre-
tend to the honour of a pugilist. Woort appeared
a good bottomed man, but an ordinary fighter.—

A general fight' was on the eve of taking place
after this match, in consequence of the ridicule
sported upon the loser. Toney, one of his seconds,
proposed to retrieve the honour of the Jews, by com-
bating either roam, Reicher, Ryan, or ("Donne!.
' The challenge was accepted by Br frhee ; but Youku
did not make his appearance in the ring. The sports
concluded with bull baiting.

On Friday sennight, there was a grand ball and
supper given to all the beauty and fashion of the three
towns, at the London Inn, Plymouth, by the offi-
cers composing the brigade of Militia, via. Royal
Cornwall. Ist and 3d Royal Lancashire, and Wilts
Regiments. now in Frankfort, Mill-Bay, Long
Room. and Dock Barracks. 'l he dancing continued
till one o'clock, when the supper-rooms were thrcAra
open, and displayed all the delcacies of the season.
with a profusion of confectionary, &c. After sap-
per. the mazy dance began again, and was coati.
sued with great spirit until five o'clock. At six the
rooms were cleared, the company separating with
regret, after au evening spent in the most pleasant
manner. The floor of the ball-room was tastefully
chalked by an eminent artik. in a very superior
style of elegance, and it had a very pretty effea.
The Bands of the Regiments attended during sup-
per, and played several martial air, in a very stye-
' trim style.
