Hulsey Hurst, where many a brave miller has
bled, was again the seat of action yesterday, and the
evolutious practised there kept pace with thom
feats of manhood already recorded, in the fight
between Eales and Isle of Wight Hail, mess

More than eleven stone, pave a few pounds which
the gallant fight we are about to record took off

only acquired a name from his being the brother of

not called a fighter at the time; but he is decided-

hitting is convincing. five ends their biography.
There 'lever was observed so few people ut a light,
perhaps trot more than two thousand. one half of
whoa, were looking for 'screens, twins voless, and
the other half consisted of the coos:wen:a. who
would endeavour to corn • guinea without standing
upon Niceties in the *portrayers-like way, that is, to
wail friend or foe, if hisjudgment fooled hint. We
must except a few distinguished characters, who
are amateurs of English sports at their hearts, and
the foreign General and author, Gourgaud, who
bad an opportunity of witnessing British courage
here, as well as at Waterloo, sod a specimen also
of British geuermity, on the part of Eales, in a port
of the fight which the reader cannot pass lightly
over. At one Hall made his how to the spectators,

to the stakes and turned to. Seconds, Belcher and
Harmer for Hall, and Oliver and Jour. for Ealeii.

THE BATTLE.
Howie 1. Them was on sparring ceremony. bet Eales
made play rather away from distance, and missed his object.
Hall returned upon him slightly with the left hand, and the
masterly science which followed was perceptible °sly to
those close upon the men; and so guide sod precise
were the motions, t►at until the. combatants set-to In the
next round the mischief could not be ascertained. Hall fell
on his knees on miming a hit.
S. A smashing round commenced offensively by Hall,
who dropped claret profusely from the forehead. Several
counter hits were exchanged in a gallant rally, after Hall
had returned upon, and parried Eaks's right hand. The
blows were measured with such precision, and the parries
were so expert, that it was so muds a master-piece of light-
ing altogether, that a commis observer could not tell who
bad int got into the chanter, line. Eake was hit bard oil
t►e left jaw, and both went down I. a close, tired with ex-
ertioe.—Eves betting.
3. Hall got a foe left.kanded bit at the hind, and he fol-
lowed in with the right, which told also. Eales, apparently
stunned by the hits, broke ground, and bad the worst of the
round, but he skewed but trilling marks of kitting, and
Hall's nob was a contused mass of blood.

4. Hall west in to take all his ad y's fight out of
him. He west with much bravery up to his adversary's
bead, and after tasking his left.ltanded bit tell, he pursued
to the ropes, when both fell.
ft. This was • plisat fought resod, but it •hewed the
good judges that Bales was the heaviest hitter, although
the advantages were reciprocal. Eales west bows, and both
felt the effects of areas minutes strong exercise.—Five to
four on Hall.

O. Eales made cautious amovesnents ►o get wind, and Hall
was also so tired, that he dropped his heed, in sparring.
In a rally Hales bad his adversary suspended across the
ropes, no part of him being grassed, and he raised both
his hands, and left him—a character worthy of a professor
of outlays! sped.
7. Hall placed a good bit on the jaw of Eales, but be fell
on his knees in pursuing his lock.—Even betting.
e. Ealea parried some good hits, and saved himself most
scientifically, but be bad the wont of the round, and ►e
fell with his adversary, alike distressed.
9. Hall bad the beat of this round also, and after receiv-
iug two hits be went down.
10. A gallant mill at covete►-kits, which told twice, hut
the effect shrived that Eales had most length. It wa■ alto-
gettier a slavghterisig round, to the advantage of Eaks, oho
placed hits bowie and heairy.—Tluve to one on Eales.
11. Three to one upon Bales weal a begging, and Jones
asked Hall if he meant to give in, to which Belcher replied,
" We shall win it; we have scarcely a stretched face." Hall
affected a ghastly sane, and turned to as if inspired with
'meadows ►y his second's stroke of the oil-brash. alias
gammon, and Booted his adversary by a blow on the jaw,
which was the first hillock down.

12. Enka gathered himself for mischief, and bit sonic
heavy bume blows; Hall was heat u drunk as if a quart
of 41ase rein bad operated upon bins, slid be fell hugging
his adversary's lop.
13. Hall made a gallant stand, bet be was hit grimier,
and so meth abroad was he that be fought with his back
towards his adversary, he fell senseless.
14. Eiden placed three hits, and broke his ground. Hall,
in endeavouring to return, fell.
15. Hall west in with much gallantry, sod placed two
hits, but in falling his seconds raised his bead, which was
like a stose, and be could nut be brought to time. Victoiy
was proclaimed for False, after eghting seventeen minutes
and afty.twu seconds.
