contact with each other in the exercise of skill, an
interest is very na►urally excited, and in sporting
events the interest is still greater. from the sun s of
money pending upon the event. So it was with
the heroes of boxing fame whose exploits we are
about to dwell upon, Acheard Turner, 411111 John
Marais, the ei-decont baker, who has long since
left off selling the sponge, for the more lucra-
tive joint games of publican and miller. The com-
batants are the champions of the light weights who
have cut any figure to the prise ring lately, and
the best men the phenotnenon ever con-
tended with, but they were obliged tii say "enough"
to thut conquering hero. In order to forutat the
recollection of our spoitmg renders with that which
had occurred, it is siece*sdry to Ittste that Randall
was two hours anti twenty-two minutes beating
Turner on Crawley Common, on the 6th of
December last, unit on the 4th of May follow-
ing
he was fifty minutes only healing Harlin. Be'.
sides, Randall has often declared ui public, that
Tenter was the best man who had ever stood before
him in the ring. Great men in general differ, and
Scroggins, who was heat twice by Turner and once
by Martin, would rather fight Turner again than
Martin, and lie assigns as a rea►on that although
Turner is the most diff►cult to be got ut, martin is
the heaviest hitter.

the sent of action was sixteen miles from Lon-
don, 20,000 persons at least surrounded a spacious
ring. within which was the roped square of 24 feet,
in which, the men contended for 100 guineas a side.
