SHELTON AND COOPER.

This great battle, on which heavier sums were
pending than on any match since that between
Randal and Turner, was fought on Tuesday, and,
as was anticipated, a more slaughtering combat has
been very rarely seen. Both men have
,been beat
by that slice of British oak, Tom Oliver, but they
are alike heavy givers. They fought for 100 gui-
neas aside in a '24 feet ring, half minute t.me
The seconds were Belcher and Harmer ibr Cooper,
and Spring and Randal for Shelton.—Betting even,
but Shelton had rather the turn.

was alighting from his carriage at the Earl of Jcr-
say's, in B,Akley Square, on Friday last, the b:7:t

Royal Highness was precipitated under the carriage.
The horses, most providentially, stood still, and
gave time tir the servants to extricate his Royal
Highness•from this perilous situation. The Duke's
